Chapter 8

Time Skip: Next day

Percy PoV:

Next day the Heroes of Old ordered a quest for Orion, Annabeth, Tyson and Satyr, of course, Orion was protesting that he won't go on a quest with a 'book worm', 'monster' and a 'goat'. The minor god's kids were very happy to finally have their own cabin and the unclaimed were happy to know their parents. The cabin councillor of minor gods cabin were Ethan, son of Nemesis.

Currently the group were packing their bags to get ready to sail their ship I created for them. The Hephaestus kids were practically drooling over the yacht and the blueprints for Phellan and DYP. The group walked onto the ship and started to to sail to the entrance of Charybdis and Scylla. I used my powers to push them, suddenly the ship shoot forward. The group helped in surprise, after they were on their feet Grover smiled at my support. They sailed for three hours when another ship appeared on the horizon. I looked closely at the ship to see its name Princess Andromeda. I looked on the ship to see it infested with monsters. I unleashed my fury on the ship, waves 30 feet high, a hurricane but it did not work so I pulled out the last card. I flashed onto the ship. I instantly summoned my sword, shield and armor and charged at the first monster. I slashed through every monster until there were none left. I entered the last room to see a golden sarcophagus and a tall blond, with light blue eyes and large scar running down his cheek. He pulled out his sword and placed his hand on the sarcophagus, I run at him with the speed of the lightning but the boy was faster and slashed his sword and him and the sarcophagus disappeared in the flash of green light after I was able to throw a tracking device on it. I was mad. No, I was furious. So close to ending this war and Kronos' sarcophagus just disappeared but I was lucky to attach the tracking device to it. Flashed myself home before I sunk the ship. At least I was able to take out big portion of Kronos' army. I continued to watch the group, they got near the entrance to the Sea of Monsters. I flashed myself onto their ship after I ate some ambrosia to refill my energy levels.

I was standing next to Grover unseen by him, I placed my hand on his shoulder making him jump a mile.

"Get the others on the deck. I'm going to help you with Charybdis and Scylla." He nodded and left. Two minutes later others gathered next to me. "I am going to try and slow downs Charybdis' currents and protect you from Scylla's attacks. All you need to do I sail in the straight line." I said, all of them nodded except from Orion who stepped forward.

"Why should we listen to you? We don't need your help, they got me!" He said with a cocky tone.

"*Sigh*Sleep" I said as I pulled shadows over his face making him fall asleep. "That's better."

They left to do what I told them. I concentrated on the water and made it flow against the current Charybdis made, I concentrated on water to form a tunnel for us to swim through. I froze the tunnel until it was 10 feet thick, I extended the ice to form spikes every densely. The currents slowed down, Scylla attacked the tunnel as we sailed through. I concentrated once more to push the ship forward.

A minute later we were on the of the tunnel with Charybdis and Scylla behind us. I turned to the others and said.

"I will stay and help you till we retrieve the fleece. The next challenge we will have to face is Circe's Island aka C.C. SPA." I looked at still unconscious Orion, "Lock him in a room after tying and gagging him." They nodded as they were all annoyed with him.

We sailed for five hours, the group slept while I kept watch over them. During that time we were attacked by few sea monsters but I killed them with ease by boiling their blood or forming an ice spike and drive it through its head.

Soon we saw land on the horizon, from some of the books I read I found out that Circe's apprentices are very beautiful. As we sailed near the island orion somehow freed himself and mesmerising the pretty girl's on the island.

"We're going on that island now!" He ordered which made me sigh.

"Unless you want to be turned into a pig literally then go on. On the second thought I might just leave you there so they can turn you into a pig." He responded by keeping quiet. He said mumbled something quietly but it was unheard.

past the island but a small wooden boat got near our ship so I walked to the side of the and saw two girls inside it.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"We are Circe's apprentices but we hope you could help us get away from this island," the older girl asked.

"What's your name and why are trying to get of this island? Isn't Circe's Island a paradise for women?" I asked.

"My name is Hylla and this is my sister Reyna, we are daughters of Bellona. We are trying to get of this island because we thought this would be paradise but when we went what they do to men we disagreed with it." I stared at them in shock. Romans. Just what we need on Greek quest.

"There is a camp for you in San Francisco near Caldecott Tunnel. I will teleport you there. Is that ok with you?" They nodded in response. I placed my hand on their shoulders and vapour traveled to Caldecott Tunnel where two guards in Roman armour stood. I walked towards them.

"Halt. Identify yourself." They ordered.

"My identity is not important. I bring you these two demigods who wish to join the legion. But now I have to leave. Bye." With that I flashed out.

I reappeared on the ship before anyone noticed my disappearance.

Two hours later we got near Sirens island.

"Guys, gather here," they all walked towards me, "we are near Sirens island. Take these and plug your yours. They will try to lure you into their island to eat you." I handed them ear plugs from my pocket. "One of us has to listen to it so they don't attack us."

"How will they try to lure us." Annabeth asked. I cursed myself mentally.

"There are many ways. Some say they will reveal your fatal flaw, others that they will show you future or what you want the most. That won't work on me since I know my fatal flaw, also I know that knowing future can lead you to receive punishment from fates and what I want the most is peace." They all nodded their heads. "Not that is don't trust you, but for safety I need you all to swear on Styx that no matter what you will not take the earplugs out." Once again they all nodded and swore the oath. As they all plugged their ears, I stood by the side of the ship. I watched as the Sirens began to sing so I quickly used my mothers powers to block out any mental attacks. As we started to sail past the island I saw the Sirens looking at me so I decided to have some fun. I waved my hand to them making them fly at us but we began to leave the island's shores. One siren tried to fly after us but I quickly shoot it with my bow.

I walked towards the others and showed them thumbs up, they took out out the earplugs and looked at me.

"Next is Island of Polyphemus. Grover, which way?"

He closed his eyes and pointed north, towards Bermuda. The Sea of Monsters works weirdly, there are three corners which are also the entrances/exits but there are only two actual entrances/exits so they shift places.

"Well, we are heading for Bermuda." I told them.

We sailed for six hours till we saw an island on the horizon. It was a small island with an abandoned theme park and a mountain in the middle, because of the mountain only half of the island was seen. We anchored our ship in the dock and left with Grover leading, me guarding him and Annabeth and Orion watching our backs.

After twenty minutes of walking we were on the other side of the island. The view was perfect. Nearly. The beautiful green fields, magnificent trees and a big hut but on the fields were sheep with extremely long and sharp teeth and blood dripping out of their mouths. There were about a hundred of them and in the middle of them was the tallest tree of them all. On one of its higher branches was an object. It reflected light like gold and had the shape of a skin. The Golden Fleece.

"First we need to pass Polyphemus' hut." They nodded in response.

We walked towards the hut, it was massive. The hut was a simple wooden hut with a stone chimney sticking out of the roof.

"Okay, here is the plan. We sneak into the hut and when we get in sight with him I shot him in the eye, blinding him while you use a rope to tie his legs together. Then we simply stab him in the head." The plan was good, but bound to be ruined.

We snuck into his hit but when we were sneaking behind him, Orion tripped over something and cursed loudly attracting the Cyclops.

"Who is there?!" He shouted. I smirked.

"Nobody!" I shouted back. Everyone looked at me in shock.

"YOU?! How dare you come back?!" He was boiling in rage. Finally Annabeth realized what is going on and chuckled. I came out of my hiding spot with my bow drawn. I looked at the Cyclops and aimed quickly before letting the arrow lose which hit him straight in the eye.

"ROAR!" He yelled in pain and pulled the arrow out quickly causing his eye to be ripped out of his head. He yelled in pain again. I saw a rope in the corner if the hut and motioned my hand on it. Others nodded and run for the rope. I pulled back the string and thought of two arrows. I aimed them and let them fly, each arrow hit the shoulder of the Cyclops. The group run the hope around his legs, not too tightly so he won't feel it.

"Hey Poly, fight me!" I shouted at him so he would know where I am by noise. He tried to run at my. The key word is: try. As he was about to run the others pulled the rope tightly making him fall on his stomach. I walked up to him and plunger an arrow through his heart. He slowly dissolved into golden dust. We walked out of the hut. I turned to the others and said.

"Wait here. I'll shoot them down." They all nodded, not wanting to face hundred blood thirsty sheep. I claimed the nearest tree and quickly every single one of the sheep was lying dead in one massive puddle of blood. I shoot an arrow with a rope at the tree with fleece and used the rope to climb onto the next tree. I claimed to the top of the tree swiftly and when I got to the top branch with the fleece, I shoot a rope arrow, not wanting to climb down. I grabbed the fleece and slid down the rope to the ground. I walked to the others with a smile on our faces. We set sail for the exit in Bermuda.

It only took us an hour to reach the exit. The others were asleep as I told them to do so after we left. It was a good thumbprint they were sleeping. At least my plan would work.

I grabbed the fleece and used the wind to lift my up and fly towards Scylla. I dodged her heads but she wouldn't let me get close to her. I did the only thing that might help. I spoke to her.

"Scylla! Stop! I swear on the river Styx I do not want to harm you. All I want is to help you and heal you from this curse. I brought the Golden Fleece to heal you. Please let me help you." I pleaded while a thunder rumbled sealing the oath. She stopped attacking and let me get closer. I placed the fleece on her head and she started to glow. When the light died down a beautiful, sixteen years old woman stood in front of me. Her shining green eyes and long, curly black hair, that reach her waist.

"Welcome back to the world of humans." I joked. Tears run across her cheeks and hugged me tightly. She thanked me over and over again until she calmed down.

"Wait here a second, I got one more thing to do." I flew up towards Charybdis. Her mouth seated to open. I created a shadow shield around the outside of her mouth so the water stopped flowing. When it stopped, the sides of were seen so I flew towards it and placed the Golden Fleece on it. Charybdis began to glow, after five minutes of glowing the light died down and left stood another beautiful sixteen years old woman but this one had sea green eyes and brown hair. I lift her up and flew towards the ship to meet with Scylla and the others. When I landed I placed her in one of the spare beds and told Scylla to go to sleep too as I watched as we leave the Sea of Monsters. As everyone woke up they looked confused at two new quest members.

"When you were sleeping I decided to do something. This is Scylla," I pointed at her, "daughter of Triton and Lamia. And this is Charybdis," I pointed at Charybdis, "daughter of Poseidon and Gaea." The look on their faces was priceless.

"Bu-but they were turned into monsters as a punishment." Said Annabeth.

"Ha! Charybdis here was turned into a monster because she was too powerful and also because of Zeus' paranoia. Scylla was cursed by Circe because she was in love with a fisherman who didn't return the feelings because he was in love with Scylla who also didn't return the feelings. So Circe cursed her in hope the fisherman would fall for her but he jump of a cliff. Do you see any kind of monster in them?" I asked them, little annoyed. They all shook their heads while Scylla and Charybdis smiled at me for defending them. "In about three hours we will reach Long Island. I will take Scylla and Charybdis to train as they will need it when we will have to show ourselves to the council Burundi cannot tell anyone about this." They all nodded their heads.

In two hours we reached Camp Half-Blood. The amazing thing is that the quest only took us sixteen hours to do. When we reached CHB, I handed Grover the fleece and said my goodbyes. I placed my hand on Scylla's and Charybdis's shoulder and flashed home.
