Alright so here goes to my first time writing a story… No promises on quality or anything but if you like do please tell me and if you hate it that's ok too! Rip it to shreds if you want I want to see where I need to improve.

Percy's Pov:

I awoke in a room lit by a bright white light floating at the ceiling. As I tried to sit up a pounding sensation of pain erupted across my entire body and I quickly fell back into the soft sheets of the bed. Once the pain subsided I realized I had no idea where I was and shifted my weight to look out the window. What I saw caused my jaw to drop. Tall buildings made of coral and marble spread out across the ocean floor as mermen and women swam between them. Beautiful schools of fish glistened in the light of the same white orbs that lit my room. I realized with a shock that I was in Atlantis, home of my father. I was taken out of my stupor by the ground shaking noise of an explosion and suddenly a building only a couple hundred feet from me blew up as a giant sea serpent came crashing through. I could feel the foundation of my room shaking as the door flew open to reveal a tall cyclops with a nasty scar running down the length of his face.

"Master Perseus we need to evacuate this hospital now!" he yelled over the sea serpent's roars of pain.

He swam over to me and helped me to my feet as the sea serpent continued to writhe on the ocean floor. I could see hundreds of mermen and cyclops crawling over it desperately searching for a weak point in the beast's scaly armor. My view quickly shifted to a long corridor as the cyclops pretty much dragged my body out of the room.

"Why has the ocean not healed my body yet?" I cried out in pain as it felt like swords were digging into legs with every step.

"The explosion from the ship greatly damaged your body Master," the cyclops explained. "Even with the help of your father's powers you have still been immobilized for a full week."

Even as the cyclops said this I could feel the power of the ocean coursing through my veins again, and it soon became less painful to walk. The cyclops kicked open a door leading into a garden on the ground level of the hotel and led me as fast as he could outside. The sea serpent was starting to regain its strength now, and with a powerful swipe of its tail took out a squadron of cyclops, who cried out as they dissolved into dust. I jerked my head to see the beast and saw a familiar figure leading five squadrons of cyclops in a desperate charge against the serpent. I realized with a start that the leader was Tyson, my half-brother, but what was he doing in a battle? Father had said that he confined Tyson to the armory as he felt Tyson was not ready for battle quite yet. I was jerked out of my thoughts by a roar from the beast that shattered half the windows on a nearby building as it snatched up three cyclops with its massive jaw. The remaining cyclops faltered for a second before continuing their suicide mission against the beast.

"We have to help them, I will not let Tyson die while I sit over here!" I exclaimed as I pushed myself away from the cyclops helping me.

"My lord you are in no condition to fight that monster!" the cyclops responded. "Plus your father will have my head if both you and Tyson fall in battle!"

I ignored him as I reached into my pocket and felt the familiar touch of my pen. I uncapped it and it grew into the bright shining sword known as Riptide. With a defiant cry I used the water around me as a jump start and shot towards the beast. I watched as it reared its ugly head back for another strike at the approaching cyclops force, and sent a jet of water right before it struck. My powers proved only to annoy the beast however, as it turned its massive head towards me and stared me down with giant yellow eyes. Tyson screamed out as the monster shot towards me and I put myself in a defensive stance to counter it. Yet my body suddenly doubled over as it was racked with pain and the serpent struck, sensing my weakness. I desperately tried to swim away but suddenly was trapped in the beast's throat as it closed its mouth around me. The pain finally subsided allowing me to look around my surroundings. With only my sword for light I realized I was in the stomach of the beast. I heard nothing except for a distant boom that repeated every second or so. I came to the realization that it was the beast's heart and swam towards it, determined to take this foul creature down with me. As I was about to round a corner I heard the sudden whining of telekhines.

"Why do we always get the worst job assignments," one of them cried out. "I mean really, anything that did not get ripped to shreds by the beast's teeth is surely going to die from this awful stench!"

"Quiet Fool!" another one responded. "Oceanus entrusted us with the defense of this serpent's heart, and so that is what we are going to do."

"Well I am sorry to say you guys have bad luck," I said as the rounded the corner causing the 2 monsters to jump back. "Because that beast's heart is going to stop beating if it is the last thing I do."

With that I lunged forward instantly cutting down one of the telekhines who had lazily left his sword laying on the floor. The other one raised his and howled at me as he charged me, but with one swift move I disarmed him and ran Riptide through his abdomen, watching as he fell to the ground. With the guards disposed of I climbed onto the top of the heart, and with a defiant cry of "For Poseidon" I sank my sword into the heart. Blood spewed out of the cut like a fire hydrant and I was thrown to the ground as I could hear the serpent howl in pain. I managed to get to my feet as the monster began to squirm back and forth, desperately trying to reduce the pain caused from the internal bleeding. I swam to the side and began to hack at the serpent's inside layer of skin until I saw the blue hue of the ocean permeate the stomach of the beast. As I stuck my arm through a powerful hand gripped my arm and yanked me out of the beast and into a hug.

"Ow! Tyson I am alive but I will not be for long if you continue to crush me!" I yelled out as my brother crushed my body with his massive figure.

"Percy no longer eaten by giant sea beast!" Tyson cried out as the remainder of his forces crowded around him in a protective circle.

"Yes yes I escaped now please let me breathe," I begged as Tyson finally released his iron grip. I looked at him and saw the ornate battle armor that was marred by the signs of battle. "Dad is letting you fight?" I said as I raised my eyebrow

Tyson blushed saying, "Well Daddy told me to stay in the armory but the evil monsters attacked during lunch so we grabbed our sticks and tools and fought them off!"

With that he showed me his "stick", a 4 foot club that had seen better days. Our reunion was cut short by a plume of Greek fire raising from the center of the city and Tyson gasped saying,

"That came from Daddy's position!"

"Well then let us go find out what is brave enough to challenge Poseidon," I said proudly as we swam with the rest of Tyson's forces towards the ever growing sound of battle.

That's all for now guys, I'm trying to keep as many characters in character as I can. I don't know, it just feels wrong to change a character's persona after reading about them for so long now. But hey that's what fanfiction is for. Once again leave a review if you did (or didn't) like my story and we'll see how long this goes for.
