Colette spent the best part of the night twisting and turning unable to get to sleep. Poseidon's voice ringing in her ears. "I'll help you get the truth even.."

It all got to the point where colette managed to twisted herself into her hammock.

She eventually managed to get herself free but actually ended up on the floor. "Ow!.."

Colette stands up to dust herself off. Percy stirs and sits up awake after hearing the crash of Colette falling on the floor.

"What the hell are you doing?"

Colette smiles nervously. "Sorry.. I couldn't sleep and I.. Uh.. Fell out of my hammock.. Did I wake you?."

Percy nodded. "Yeah.. Although you've probably done me a favour.."

Colette frowns. "I have?.. Really?."

Percy grins. "Yeah because demigod dreams are more powerful here it's almost like your actually in the dream.. Compared to when your out there in the real world.. In short demigod dreams suck.."

Colette grins. "Well at least I didn't wake up Tyson.."

Percy stifles a laugh. "Tyson?.. Psh.. He snores like an elephant."

They both grin looking at Tyson sleeping in the next bunk.

Percy turns to get back into his his bunk. "Well.. I'm going to get to sleep.. Busy day tomorrow."

Colette nodded. "Training again?.. Right.. Well.. Uh.. I'm gonna go for a walk."

Percy bites his lip. "Okay.. I wouldn't be long if I were you.. The cleaning harpies patrol after sunset and they eat you if your out late past curfew.."

Colette looks at the time. "It's only midnight and curfew is at One am so that should be plenty of time."

Percy smirked. "Yeah.. Plenty of time to avoid getting eaten.. I wonder how you would taste.."

Colette grins. "One I'm your sister and secondly.. You wouldn't be able to stomach me.. I'm an acquired taste."

Percy laughs. "Blimey.. The cleaning harpies better watch out for you then.. Have fun."

Colette smiles. "Thanks.."

Percy turns over and gets to sleep a few minutes later.

Colette smirks to herself. "Tyson's not the only one in the family that snores like an elephant then.."

She walked out of the cabin and walked toward the beach.
When she got to the beach, She sighed to herself. "Okay.. So how do I do this just get on my knees and pray?."

She thought that might be a bit silly so she decided to keep it nice and simple and normal. She snorted to herself, "What's normal about this situation?!."

She closed her eyes and prayed. "Poseidon, I hope you can hear me and if you meant what you said earlier then I want the truth.. I'm ready."

Suddenly a letter poofed like magic in front of her face.

On the front of the letter there was a stamp saying "Hermes Delivery service ."

She looked at the rest of the envelope and the address was written as this:

Colette
Camp half blood
Long Island sound
America

She frowned wondering what it could say and who it could be from but she had a strange feeling that it was from Poseidon.

She took a deep breath and ripped it open.

She pulled out the letter and read:

Dear Colette,
If you are really ready for the truth then I suggest you hear the truth from the source,
The person who first started this in the first place and the person who wanted me to bring you to camp half blood.

I meant what I said.. I'll always be here for you no matter what..

My brothers think you are my daughter and yes they are mad but I'm not asking you to live a lie..

If you do want a relationship then that's all good or if you jut want to have our current relationship now and to help you figure out the truth then we will figure all this out later.

Ride the wave,
Poseidon.

Colette frowned at the letter.. "Who's the source?.. Does he mean the person that started it all or is that like a name of someone?.."

She shrugged. "The person who started it all sounds more plausible.. I wonder if he's sending this person to me.. Poseidon may have all the answers but to Poseidon perhaps this person is a bit better to answer them."

A few days later..

Colette was finally settling in after sword fighting classes and capture the flag and the wall of course where they have a little extra challenge with lava.

Usually in those situations Colette felt more like a coward but because she had to do these things because she was told to and mainly because her life depended on it.. That is if she ever went out in the real world or got attacked here.

People were actually starting to like her apart from Clarisse that is. Her father is Ares the God of war.. So I guess is natural to have a temper but then again so does Poseidon.

Chiron galloped toward her.

Colette frowned. "Let me guess more training?!."

Chiron shook his head. "No.. You have a visitor."

Chiron took Colette to the big house where a man was waiting.
