Nero's POV

"So do we just go in or...." Orion asked.

Savanna just stared at the ship, "I...I guess we do..."

"But this ship isn't meant to be..." Orion said.

"Yeah...." I said.

It barely took us thirty minutes of travel to get the Atlantic Shore. It would have taken five if Orion didn't complain about how hungry he was, "I'm gonna die if I don't get something to eat," he said. He's literally a Demigod, he doesn't even need the food. We ate and then we went back on track, and now that we're here we find that the Titanic itself was already here. No listen, the Atlantic is now right here on the shore of the beach.

The humans around us were marvelling at the amazing sight. We were honestly no different from them at this point.

The sound of blaring horns filled the area around us.

We turned around to find a news van. This must be all over the media by now, news like this spreads too quickly in the modern world to be covered up.

A news reporter jumped out of the van with the cameraman right behind her, "Here we are on Crosby Beach, where a wrecked ship, probably hundreds of years old, has suddenly been moved to the Sandy shores. Our researchers and many contacts have all thought and calculated the ways that something like this could happen." She marched on forward and even went ahead and touched the old wreck, "Could something this incredible happening a few minutes after reports of godly beings breaking a school down and the clearing of all the clouds in Peterborough and Cambridge truly be a coincidence? Are the reports true? If so, are we dealing with some godly beings that want to destroy the world? All is this will soon be-"

Tentacles wrapped around her and forcefully pulled her into the sea.

A man screamed behind me.

"AHHHHHHH HELP ME-,"

Another human taken.

Orion, Savanna and I hadn't understood the situation quick enough.

"Shit." Orion turned around to the other humans that were even slower to grasp what just happened, "RUN!"

Multiple tentacles sprang out of the water, forcing them to understand what was happening. They screamed and ran away the fastest they could, pushing each other to the floor to save their own lives first. Mothers and fathers holding on to their children in a struggle to leave unscathed but with over fifty other families struggling to do the same thing, someone will die. People will die, lives will be wasted today if I don't do anything but....it's been so long since I've done this. How do I know if I can still-

Savanna slapped me, "Get your fucking head out of the clouds, you wuss! Now is not the moment to be a coward!" She made her spear appear out of thin air and cut each one of the tentacles to dices. "If we don't fight for those people who will?!"

The number of tentacles went from eight to hundred and that could only mean one thing.

"THE KRAKEN!!" I shouted. Yes it made me look mad, yes it distracted Savanna enough to make her stare at me, silently asking if I was gone mad but I was far from that.
