Triton was completely healed and dressed for battle. Coral would take much longer, but that didn't stop her from tending to the injured. Triton stood at the map and calculated his next move. The mers under him were quick and deadly, but they also stood against creatures Triton never knew existed. Oceanus had attacked the palace with new vigor once he discovered the 'child of prophecy' was here. And Percy slept on oblivious to it all. Triton just pointed to a potential weak spot in the enemies ranks when he heard, "Dad?"

There was Percy Jackson looking completely confused. Tyson, who had refused to leave his side once he discovered Percy was here, floated beside him. Now he shows up, Triton thought.

"Hello, Percy." Poseidon responded.

"What . . .what happened to you?" Percy stuttered.

Tyson shook his head, violently. Subtle, Tyson, subtle. Triton wanted to scoff at how oblivious Percy was. He momentarily turned his attention back to the map and noticed a group of sea demons trying to sneak into the palace on the north side. He smirked. They thought that Percy was still there.

'Let me introduce you." Triton snapped his attention back to Percy, who looked just as lost as before. "This is my, um, my wife."

His mother drew herself up like when she was forced to do something she really hated. "Excuse me, my lord. I am needed in battle."

Triton watched the Percy blush uncomfortably. Good. Let the little shrimp squirm.

"This is my son Triton. My, um, other son."

Triton felt himself grin. He was going to have fun with this. "Hello, Perceous Jackson. Come to help at last?" Triton watched with amusement as Percy processed that.

"Tell me what to do." Percy responded.

Triton almost laughed. Little late, he thought. "Don't worry father, I will not fail."

Triton knew he was needling the demigod, but it gave him great satisfaction at seeing his shocked face. Triton raced toward where his troops waited. He made sure to pass by the infirmary. He caught Corals eye and winked. His troops came to attention.

"We have some intruders in the north. Time to take some revenge." Triton almost growled.

He spotted Rip, Ray, and Cooda grinning maliciously. As he led his troops through the palace he spotted Percy shooting up out of the palace toward the surface. He was mildly impressed, but kept it to himself. That kid had better make the right choice. If he didn't, Triton would make sure to hunt him down and kill him, if the kid wasn't already dead at the end of this war.
