Percy POV:
I'm at the beach with momma Amp, while my mom studies for her college entrance exams when 2 pretty women join us. One looked like momma Amp & wore a 1-piece dark green swimsuit, while the other had light blue skin & black hair & wore a black 2-piece swimsuit.
The former: So, this is the little one that convinced you to reach out to me, mom?
Amphitrite: Yes Kymopoleia, this is your brother, Percy.
Kymopoleia: Hello Percy. I'm your sister. I was planning on coming here alone, but I ran into my friend Styx while she was on vacation.
Me: THE STYX! It is an honor to meet you. As someone who was raised to keep his promises, I respect you a lot!
Styx: (crying) Thank you! I wish everyone was like you in that regard.
We talked for hours, until:
Me: Have you tried talking things out with Briares? It's not his fault.
Kymopoleia: No. I have not.
Me: I'm not asking you to love him. I'm just asking you to be honest with him & try to at least talk things out with him. You could split on ammacable terms.
Kymopoleia: Amicable. I'll think about it.
Me: (turning towards Styx) Why do you seem so upset, Styx?
Styx: Everyone that is too strong for me to punish is breaking their oaths & I am unable to punish them.
Me: Why not pray to someone who could?
Styx: Like who?
Me: (I paused to think, then clasped my hands to pray.) "Lord Pontus & Lady Thalassa please give Styx the strength she needs to punish any breakers of her oaths."
The others looked at me in shock.
????? (A deep masculine voice): Well, I haven't been prayed to in thousands of years. Neither has my wife.
We turned to see a fisherman decked out in his full yellow waterproof gear, including a yellow hat. He had seaweed for hair that was long flowing down his back until it reached his butt & a beard that went down just as far. Next to him stood a woman in a black diving suit with nothing covering her face, head or feet. She had the same hair, minus the facial hair, obviously, & 2 crab claws for horns. If memory serves, he probably has the same underneath his hat.
Pontus: Thank you for praying to us. We will grant your request.
Thalassa: So long as we get to tell them their punishments & see their reactions.
Styx: Yes, please! Thank you so much my lord & lady! (She runs up & kisses them both on the cheek.) I'm sorry for my outburst.
They laughed.

Nobody' POV:
A giant Greek room filled with 12 giant thrones & a fire in the middle. This was Olympus's council room. Mt. Olympus itself was set on the top of the Empire State building. 12 figures were summoned against their will, but 1 was tending to the fire.
A man in a business suit with black mid back length hair & beard & a blue cylindrical object charged with electricity sat next to a woman with similar hair, except the obvious.
She had a golden ribbon braided into her hair, wore a white gown & golden crown over her head. She also had jewelry & a peacock feathered coat.
The man, Zeus (Angerly): WHO DARES SUMMON US AGAINST OUR WILL!
