"What the f###ck?" Carry stares around, in awe
Holograms of sharks and fish float around Posiden's domain
Kyron continues to walk, marching his way to a futuristic-looking White House
"Hey, you're not gonna stop for sightseeing?" Putty asks
"We've got something we need to do, I don't care about the color of the sky here" Kyron answers
"Yeah, that's weird it's...refracting, almost, like we're underwater" Mar stares at the sky
"I'll get Posiden myself then" Kyron walks on
"Such a buzzkill" Carry sighs, following after him
"Hey, Putty, come over here" Mar crouches down to a glowing seashell
"Ooh, pwetty" Putty stares
"Yeah, but look at this" Mar hits a rock against it, not even a crack or scratch on it
"Holy crap, that's awesome" Putty's eyes widen
"What if we made some armor or something from this" Mar nudges Putty
"How? We don't even know how to break it" Putty shakes his head
"Maybe some fire and a mallet?" Mar suggests
"It's a seashell though" Putty reminds
"Not like any I've ever seen" Mar puts the shell away
"YOU GUYS DONE GAWKING?" Kyron yells
"YEAH" Mar rushes to Kyron
"Nobody goes through without permission other than Posiden himself or his offspring" A guard blocks the way inside with a long trident
"We just need to ask Posiden a few things, that's all" Carry explains
"WIthout permission, you cannot" Another guard insists
"Who do we need permission from, anyway?" Carry asks
"One of the overseers or the god himself" The guard answers
"And they are...?" Kyron spins his hands
"Turtle, Rei, and Aqua" The other guard clarifies
"I've got an idea" Mar murmurs to Kyron
"Don't do anything that'd kill you" Kyron sighs
"You guys seem really good at your job, but you really won't let us through for just a few minutes?" Mar asks
"I am sorry, but no excuses" The guard shakes his head
"That's too b-" Mar snatches the trident out of his hands and starts running
"STOP HIM, STOP HIM NOW, IF I ASK FOR ONE MORE TRIDENT, I'M FIRED" The guard runs after Mar
"Brother of-YOU KLUTZ" The other guard runs after Mar
"Good idea, Mar, just hope he doesn't get caught" Carry watches the guards run away
"Thanks" Kyron salutes off Mar
"Hope he doesn't lose that thing" Putty shakes his head
The group enters the building, Kyron leading them
They walk down a long hall, a large door at the end of it
"That's gotta be where Posiden is, right?" Carry asks
"Yeah, I think so too" Kyron nods
"Let's go in, then" Carry slowly opens the door
Inside, nobody's there, not at the throne, not the kitchen, not even the bathroom
"...Was this the right room?" Putty asks
"I don't think we made a wrong turn down a straight corridor" Kyron looks around
"Maybe we di-" Putty starts
A large robot wearing a blue toga crashes through the ceiling, a long beard with a crown resting on his head, and two huge spears in each hand
"Foolish fish who enter the shark tank, only bait for the fisherman" The robot slowly raises his head
"Hey, Posiden, I was wonde-" Putty starts
Without another word, Posiden stabs his spear at Putty's head...Only to be caught by Zeus
"HEY, YOU HAVE GREAT TIMING" Kyron yells
Putty stares in fear
"YOU'RE WELCOME" Zeus yells, holding the spear back
Posiden thrusts the second spear at Zeus
Zeus dodges, the air crashes against his cheek
Posiden cross-slashes at him
Zeus grabs both spears
"DON'T YOU HAVE A WEAPON OR SOMETHING?" Carry asks
"Not...on...me" Zeus struggles
"YOU WANT IT SO BAD, THEN FETCH" Mar yells, throwing the trident
The trident stabs Posiden right in the ankle
"OH SH*T" The guards yell in terror
Posiden cocks his head at the guards
The guards liquify into water
"WHAT THE F*CK WAS THAT?" Kryon yells
Zeus sees the opportunity and takes it
He thrusts one of Posiden's spears back, ripping the other from his grasp
Posiden twists, surprised
"You want some popcorn?" Prometheus asks, handing Carry a bucket of popcorn
Carry slowly takes it, watching the whole thing go down
Zeus and Posiden both try to stab each other, somehow both of them dodging
Posiden hooks Zeus across the...skull?
Zeus staggers backward but not for long, he recovers, uppercutting Posiden
Posiden backs away, swinging his spear at Zeus
Zeus jumps back, throwing the spear into Posiden's damaged leg
"AGH" Posiden drops to his knee
"Speak to me, brother, the only one committing heresy is you, why?" Zeus grabs Posiden by the chin
"GET AWAY FROM ME" Posiden shoves Zeus away
Zeus stares as Posiden's eyes start to glow a bright purple
"Purple does not suit you, you know that?" Zeus asks
Posiden tries to get up, staggering
"Brother, listen to me, you are not like this, this is not who I remember all those years ago" Zeus shakes his head
"Spoken like a 13-year old girl" Juul sits down, crossing his legs
"You said something along those lines back a while ago" Selina hangs from the ceiling
"SHUT YOUR MOUTH" Posiden yells
"Posiden, it's my problem if you have a problem, what is wrong?" Zeus asks
"YOU LIVING" Posiden shouts, gritting his teeth
"If words don't straighten you out..." Zeus grabs Posiden by the sides of his head
"GET OFF OF ME" Posiden grabs Zeus's hands
Zeus backs his head up and crashes it against Posiden's
Posiden stares, his eyes starting to flicker
Zeus starts repeatedly headbutting Posiden
A yellow liquid starts to leak from both of their heads
Posiden eventually gets knocked out, laying sprawled out
Zeus falls over, just staring at the sky with a minor concussion
"...THAT WAS F#CKING AWESOME" Carry yells, popcorn flying out of her mouth
