They kept climbing, and the water kept rising.
'What are we going to do when the water reaches us? I'm hydrophobic, and I can't swim,' Aimee panicked.
'Don't worry, I'll grab you,' Herald said.
'I can't swim either,' Liam said in horror.
'I'll get you,' Icas offered. 'But we'll think of that when the time comes', he added.
When they reached the top of the island Herald took hold of Aimee, and Icas grabbed Liam's arm.
The four friends prepared to get under the water.
They waited for the water to come, only it never did. The island stopped sinking 3 metres above sea level!
'Why have we stopped?' Aimee whispered to Herald.
'I don't know,' he answered.
'HERCULES!' a voice bellowed.
'What?' Icas asked.
'HERCULES!' the voice boomed again. An aqua coloured giant rose from the water.
'Poseidon,' Aimee whispered.
The God looked at Herald, 'HERCULES, WHY WON'T YOU ANSWER ME?'
'He thinks you're Hercules,' Liam exclaimed.
'God figure.' Icas muttered.
Herald ignored them both, 'Yes?' he asked the God.
'WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON MY ISLAND?'
Herald cleared his throat to buy some time as he thought of an answer. 'We.uhhh...' he began, 'We were in the cave exploring. We didn't know it was your island,' he explained.
Poseidon thought of his answer a moment, and then snapped his fingers.
The teens clapped their fingers over their ears to muffle out the rumbling sound as a giant turtle appeared out of the water.
'CLIMB ON TO ITS BACK AND IT WILL TAKE YOU TO THE SHORE,' he instructed them.
The teens didn't argue, and quickly climbed onto the turtle. The uttered their thanks as the God disappeared.
'We're lucky he isn't very smart today. He didn't even think if we'd come here exploring we'd already have a boat,' Herald said suspiciously.
'I'm beginning to think Aimee was right about the whole 'Greek Heroes' thing,' Liam said.
'You think?' Icas asked.
'Why are you being so sarcastic?' Liam asked him.
'Because I'm stuck in a place, and time period with a bunch of psychos who kidnapped me, that's why!' he answered bitterly.
'You cam with us on your own free will!' Liam pointed out.
Herald and Aimee listened to the argument go on, and smiled at each other.
A puzzled expression crossed Heralds face, 'You know, something wasn't quite right about what just happened. The situation was far too easy,' he said.
Aimee looked over the shore, 'Your right, way too easy. Look!'
Herald followed her gaze, 'Watch out,' he yelled as an arrow of fire was headed their way.
