I was in the throne room, pacing before the actual throne. I liked this place, usually. It felt like it was straight from a movie, but it was a cool space, and I loved it.

Usually.

I was too fucking pissed to even admire it right now.

"Triton!" I yelled again.

Amphitrite was waiting outside, and it was wise of her not to enter before he was there.

"I will summon you if you don't get here soon," I snarled, knowing he'd hear me wherever he was. That was the power of my realm, now it was so big. Only, it was reserved to a few people, if I wanted to.

He didn't get his head out of his ass and get a move.

I summoned him, slamming him onto the marble floor. Circling him, he got up, bashing his tail in the air. Despite the castle being water-free, he could use the air as his water.

"Amphitrite, get in here," I called out.

She sighed and walked in. While she had fins when she was in water, she had feet when here. She was still naked, but I liked how she didn't care. It drew me to her, when I first met her.

"Did Triton make you pull the girl down here?" I demanded her, shooting a look to silence Triton.

"Yes," she said.

"Why did you do it?" I demanded. "You know full well that three times, in such a short period, is damn fucking dangerous!" I thundered. Tsunamied never sounded as well, but it was far more dangerous.

She looked at Triton. "He told me you'd demanded it, and I knew you like her."

I glared at Triton. "Get out," I told Amphitrite. "You are in for serious trouble," I said to Triton.

"Father, Poseidon," he said. "By all means."

"No," I said. "Stop talking. You know it can lead to death if people, living people, get here too often."

He didn't look like he cared.

"Your punishment has just gotten a million times worse," I said softly. "Atlantis was nothing compared to this." Atlantis lived under the sea now, as mer-people, sort of. They had a cube like this, and they had made equipment so they could swim around, against not exposing themselves or I'd fucking move them.

That sort of got to him. "Father." He pleaded.

"No," I said. "You had your change." I directed the trident to him. "Say goodbye to this place, you won't be back for a long, long time."
