5. Chapter 5

Percy

As we headed down to my dad's palace, I realized Ladea could breathe underwater. And Annabeth was drowning. I kissed her and pulled away, forming a bubble around her head. My dad smiled and flicked his finger, sending a air bubble around Annabeth so she wasn't flailing around.

Ladea was attracted to a Siren, and from the name tag, her name was Venate.

"Venate's friendly, my boy!" my dad clapped my back roughly.

As soon as Ladea came close, Venate ate her. Hello? I screeched, "VENATE JUST ATE HER!"

"Don't worry, we'll see her later," my dad replied.

What? Okay. A Siren ate my daughter. Wonderful. Let's just go on ahead and completely ignore it. Sure. "What? But - "

"Don't worry. It's a fake Siren. You get lured and it's a transporter to the place that we're heading. During her ride, she's living her dream," my dad sighed.

"Oh," I felt embarrassed.

"Seaweed Brain, it said Venate Transporter. She's not a real Siren," Annabeth laughs.

We head into my dad's palace, and we find Ladea sitting with Tyson, making sand castles. Tyson sees me and his eye blinks in surprise, "BROTHER!"

He gives me a large hug and I hug back. "You didn't die yet!" he claps.

"Yeah, amazing, huh?" I rub my shoulder.

"Amazing!" Tyson nods. He's about 12 feet, like a true giant. When we met, he was 6 or 7 feet tall.

Annabeth grins and heads over to Ladea. Ladea's sand castle was amazing. There was a drawbridge with hinges, a moat with baby crocodiles, and inside had rooms and workable bathrooms. Tyson had helped, so it figured it would work. Little seahorses swam in and out of it, like it was a hotel. The beds were sturdy, but the blanket had to be brought from the Seaweed Center, which they had made a mini of that too. I chuckled at it. It was amazing.

"Who's Mommy's little architect?" Annabeth smiled and hugged Ladea.

"Me!" Ladea yelped in delight.

"Percy," cold fingers groped my back. It sent nightmares flaring through me, extreme pain coursing through my body, and a chill up my back. Nobody was anywhere in sight and I was in pitch black darkness.

*By today, I hope to complete Chapter 6, but I'm pretty pooped from writing 3 chapters today - writer's block may hit me soon! :D Thanks for reviews! This is a pretty short chapter, because I wanted to post it and didn't completely finish before lunchtime.*
