Tam POV (First Person)

We watched as Percy began his demonstration, the water in our goblets rising into the air to form different shapes. First a huge cat prowled the room, before morphing into a horse which then grew wings and took off into the air. The amount of control and precision he had was amazing, though if you weren't either a Hydro or someone who'd lived with one for many years, you wouldn't know just how great a feat it was to execute this much control over water.

"So you can do a few fancy tricks, not that impressive boy any Hydro could do that." Bronte spoke up. As soon as he said it Percy's face changed, he looked really annoyed now.

"Maybe so," He said calmly, in contrast with the look on his face. "But could they do this?" Then he disappeared.

Everyone was in panic. How had he just disappeared like that? Did he teleport out or just turn invisible? Does this mean he has two abilities? Thoughts raced through my head, though I made sure that I still looked calm on the outside. What's going to happen? Will we have to go and find him again? Where did he- I was pulled from my thoughts as Percy reappeared next to me, though he looked even more annoyed now, if that was possible, and was muttering angrily. I could hear him clearly though, as I was next to him, however, I still couldn't understand him. He was speaking in another language, not English though, I could understand that.

Percy POV (First Person)

I wish I could just turn invisible. The looks on their faces must have been hilarious after I Vapour Travelled out. Wait. Vapor Travel. I am such a Seaweed-Brain, no Percy, don't think about them, you have bigger problems at the moment. I could just Vapor Travel out of their stupid 'Lost Cities', so that's what I did, well, that's what I tried to do. When I tried to get back to my apartment, a barrier stopped me. What could have stopped me from getting back? I'd Vapor Travelled before and nothing ever blocked me, so what was doing so now? Was it some kind of Elf thing? No, Godly powers would overpower them any day. Unless they were weaker or- AARG, curse ADHD. Anyway, back to figuring out how to get out of he-

"Perseus Jackson." Three voices called in my mind, I could have sworn I'd heard them before but I didn't know- wait. No. No no no no no. Please no. Anyone but them-

"We are the Fates." And of course it's them. They just love to mess with my life too much to leave me alone, don't they.

"You cannot leave the Elven cities unless you use one of their methods of transportation, just as no one can get inside them unless they use the Elven way."

"Wha-"

"Do not interrupt us. You are also unable to Iris message anyone or contact anyone unless-"

"Unless I use an Elven way, got it. Now, can you please leave me alone."

"Of course young hero, and remember, you cannot let anyone find out about your heritage. If you do, the worlds will collide and everything will fall."

"K. Got it. I tell them, mortal doom ensues. Now bye." With those parting words of wisdom I willed myself back to the weird throne room, but materialising next to the Nico-clone instead of where I had been.

(A/N- when it's in italics it's in either Ancient Greek or Latin. Sometimes it's just for emphasis but you can probably tell which is which depending on context. If it's someone who doesn't understand the languages then it will be written in the language and I'll put the translation below. If it's someone who does, I'll add * for Ancient Greek, and ^ for Latin. Both of them means it alternates between the two. Now, with this confusion over, on with the story.)

"*Stupid Fates. Stupid Gods," cue thunder "Oh shut it Drama Queen. Stupid Barrier, stupid elves, stupid everything. Why can't I just have a peaceful life for ONCE!!" I'd started off muttering but I'd ended up yelling the last sentence. I was just immensely glad that they couldn't understand me. Though they all looked expectantly at Sophie, as if they were waiting for a translation. Lucky for me, she looked just as confused as them.
