~Maraya POV~
I was dragging Oceanus along making sure the bag would scrape against rocks, I was pretty mad if you couldn't tell. We could've just teleported there but there was a fun piece of land with a whole bunch of sharp things that I wanted to drag Oceanus onto.
Oceanus was struggling the whole way there until we got to the rocks. He yelled in pain and was generally being annoying the whole way to Pontus's Peak. When we finally got there, (and no thanks to Oceanus.) It was late afternoon, I lugged him up to the top of Pontus's Peak.
At the top there was a temple dedicated to Pontus, it was murky green and in the center of the temple was the sacrificial circle. I tossed him into the circle and turned to Alex. "Ok so...What do we do now?" I asked him. "We day the usual evil incantation, and than he disappears and Pontus appears, hopefully not in the sack." Alex summarized.
I cleared my throat. "I summon you Pontus, Primordial of the sea, we offer you this sacrifice, Oceanus, Titan of the Oceans." The Titan —And sack.— disappeared in a cloud of…
"Bubbles?" Alex questioned. "Oceanus has more style than I thought." I muttered under my breath. "How much style do you think he had?" Alex questioned me. "None." "Oh."
Lightning struck the circle and the circle glowed sea green, I blinked away the spots in my eyes and I saw a buff shirtless dude, whose legs were snakes, he had what looked like a pinecone on a stick, but he couldn't have been mistaken as Dionysus.
For one, he had a beard to rival Dumbledick, —I mean Dumbledore, sorry. —*cough* not sorry *cough*— He had murky green skin, like looking at polluted water, his beard and hair were glacier white, he had a pinecone on a stick his eyes were sea green flames and in his hair he had bright blue lobster claws —I guess he was the one to start the lobster claws fashion trend.— He smiled coldly at us.
"I see you are the ones to free me, sent by my brothers, Tartarus and Ouranos. And made gods by one of them! You will be very interesting…" Pontus said, letting a bit of thoughtfulness in his voice
"I would never think that you would destroy the gods, and than freeing me from my prison. I bet my nephew will be wishing he would never have been born by now." Pontus smirked.
"Before I go, I shall tell you why niece, and your son of Zeus, didn't gain teleportation powers. It is because you also have your own means of traveling. (A/N: I forgot that I didn't mention that they didn't have teleportation powers...Oops.) They are called vapour travel and air travel. Your...friend, son of Hades can teach you how to learn. Now I must go, and retake my throne." Pontus dissolved into vapour and I could faintly see him speeding his way to Poseidon.
I gave Alex my puppy-dog eyes and he sighed. "Fine, I'll teach you how to use vapour travel. Prepare yourself for accidental trips to China."
"First, you want to imagine yourself dissolving into vapour, than imagine where you want to go. Usually, for demigods, it exhausts them. But it doesn't for us. Just imagine yourself at the bottom of the mountain and you should be there, as I don't want to stay on this mountain all day." Alex said.
I imagined myself at the bottom of the mountain, concentrating. Several times my body dissolved into vapour but I didn't appear at the bottom of the mountain, It took a couple of hours, but at nightfall I had perfected the means of vapour travel.
Alex nodded. "Good, we shouldn't keep Ouranos waiting any longer," Alex suddenly smiled. "Meet you there!" He disappeared and I shouted, "Unfair!" I used vapour travel and I reappeared on top of Alex.
"Hah! That's what you get!" I said, smirking. A piece of bone smacked me. "You wanna go!" Alex yelled, at me.
I laughed, victorious over Alex as he struggled underneath me.
A/N: I think this is a good end to this chapter. Also I promise you that they will go on a portal expedition. Just you wait. For either a couple of weeks or a few days.
