Aris POV
---------------------------------
Yep, you heard right. The ship blew up. Not really, it just kinda blasted us 57 yards away from the deck into the ice cold water in 4 seconds. The actual ship was still intact. Patus did turn into an awesome helicopter, a pretty big one actually, and saved all our lives.

"Y'all alright?" Nick called in his southern accent.
"Hey, hey, what happened!" Leo's face franticly popped up on the control panel on the helicopter.
"We're all good, the Argo III just blew up." I answered, dusting off debris and wooden splinters from my (now ripped and ruined) orange CHB shirt.
"Wha-! Oh, the engine... have overheated... maybe below? Nah.. because..but..." Leo and Clarke argued, their conversation muffled by their frantically fast moving hands.
"Did you leave the Iris message on?" Leo asked, worriedly.
"I though you signed off?" Jason answered.
"Ah, no. We both have to sign off. The goddess, Iris, will manually shut off a message if it is left on for to long. She shuts  it off in a different way. The mist that usually sprinkles off turns into a blast of water. It must have gotten in something." Clarke answered, relived.
"The engine is water proof and floats, so it wasn't that, but will Patus can easily fix it if the hull is still intact."Leo said.
"Yep, that's still in one piece. There's barely any damage besides a hole about the size of Patus in the deck." Jason said back.
"Good, good, that's an easy fix."

Patus flew us back to the ship, changing back into a Titan just before landing on the deck. We all got to work and just as night fell the deck was fixed again, though the wood coloring was different.
"Good job guys, now get some rest, Ari, Piper, Nick and I will take first watch, since you took it last night." Jason said, dusting his hands off.
They all nodded and put away their tools as they walked down the stairs to the below deck.

Jason, Piper, Nick, Patus, and I sat silently on the cold wood as the moon drifted over our heads. After a few minuets, Piper hopped up and leaned over the rail.
"Where are all the monsters? We haven't gotten an attack in days...knock on wood. I'm not complaining, but it's unusual." She said, confused.
"I know, right? Are we headed in the wrong direction?" Jason said this time, reaching for the map.

Suddenly an iris message appeared. Percy stood shakily with his riptide in his hand. He dodged to the side, slashing as if he was in the middle of a battle.
"We got attacked by some monsters. You know, the kind that are like, 'Gaea promised us this and we're here to kill you?' But instead they said that the Erysichthon dude promised them ruling as the next generation. They let it slip that he's hiding up north somewhere, far away from Rome. Apparently he-" Percy ducked again.
"Apparently he failed to kill someone Gaea said he had to and was banished to like Iceland or something-"
Annabeth roared a battle cry that would make any mortal pee their pants and Leo yelled,
"Yeah, you like that! Papa Leo's in the house!"
"And... Yeah, we thought you'd like to know."
"Tha-" I tried to say, but the Iris message shut off. I rushed over and signed off like Clarke said we had to.

"Reset the course to north." I said to Patus. No one wanted to mess up the control panel so we always just left it alone, now that we had Patus, we could do it.
"Okay." He said, walking over to the panel. He froze half way there.
"My radars detect...minor, very minor gods. That way"
