(3rd POV)

Perseus decided to keep a closer look on Alex after seeing the efforts he went through to get his mother back. Alex had the soul of a true warrior and had a bright future in front of him if he kept on the current path. Perseus decided to give the hero a reprieve and formed protections around the son of Poseidon so that he would know peace during the school year. However, during the summer months Alex would be fair game for any monster that wanted to challenge him. Perseus even helped guide a soon to be friend to Alex for the coming troubles of the summer.

Perseus couldn't turn his back to the rest of the universe and would frequently have to deal with other problems that needed his attention. The angels were keeping order throughout most of the universe and his archangels were monitoring the angels for any problems. Any problem that Perseus had to deal with personally was usually pretty big and took some time to complete.

When Perseus looked back on Alex it was the beginning of summer and a couple cyclops were hunting for him. Alex's "brother" was helping a little but most of the help came from Annabeth with her invisibility cap. Perseus knew of the troubles Annabeth had with cyclops and was interested to see how this would turn out. He didn't have to wait long however before even more trouble started to spring up for the young hero. When the trio made it back to camp chaos was reigning. Luke had already poisoned Thalia's tree and the barrier was collapsing around the camp.

Clarisse was given the quest to search for the Golden Fleece and a lot was riding on their success. Many couldn't believe that Luke would do something like this to Thalia's Tree. The quest for the fleece took Clarisse to the Sea of Monsters and unknowingly to her she wasn't the only one looking for the Golden Fleece. Alex, Annabeth, and Tyson had set off in search for fleece not shortly after Clarisse. Although they had a little help coming from Hermes, they had already stumbled upon The Princess Andromeda and barely escaped with their lives.

Perseus was watching all this happen like it was an action movie, even though he knew of the possible outcomes. Not everything was set in stone as of yet but the general picture was beginning to form and plans were being formed. The fate of earth was hanging on the shoulders of Alex and his friends, Perseus was confident in their abilities and couldn't wait for the outcome to unfold.

Alex stumbled upon Circe's island and had quite the bit of trouble from the ancient sorceress, although Perseus himself found it quite funny that he was turned into a quine pig. Sailing on Blackbeard's ship was pretty easy for the son of Poseidon as it should have been. That's not to be said that the rest of the quest was easy for them however. The rest of the quest turned even more dangerous and harder than the previous step. Sailing around the Sirens almost took a drastic turn for Annabeth but she was fortunately saved by Alex at the last second. At last they found the island housing the Golden Fleece, but that turned out to be the easy part. Actually stealing the fleece would be the truly dangerous part.

Perseus was still amazed at their ingenuity throughout the quest so far. When the trio got up the mountain and past the sheep they finally came upon the true guardian of the fleece, Polyphemus. The biggest and most dangerous cyclops to ever be born, and distantly related to Tyson and Alex. The battle was quick but hard, the questers barely made it off the island alive. Tyson was severely injured after the battle with Polyphemus and the journey back to the mainland was a lot easier.

Alex sent Clarisse back to camp with the fleece while Annabeth and him met Luke. Luke was really angry with the fact that they had gotten the fleece before him. the battle was pretty one-sided between the remaining questers and their enemy until Alex met Blackjack and saved them all from being killed. They flew back towards camp and met Clarisse as she was putting the fleece upon Thalia's Tree.

Perseus was looking on as this was happening and decided upon the path with which the heroes would take. With minable effort he enhanced the powers of the fleece, not only by saving the tree and the border around Camp Half-Blood but by also saving the life of Thalia in the process. With a startling gasp Thalia, the daughter of Zeus, was alive again. Now their were two children of the Big Three in contention for the prophecy. Many were excited about the "rebirth" of Thalia, however; Alex couldn't help but feel he was being replaced.

Not all was good news for unbeknownst to them the enemy was concocting new ways to win the war against the Olympians. Old and new prophecies were coming together for the better or for the worst. Many adventures laid before Alex and his friends, but even bigger things would be happening with Perseus and the universe.
