Phoebe stood by Poseidon. Her eyes were locked up at the beauty of the seas. The blue color, it's glow under the sun and how it mirrors the starry night sky. "I never thought how beautiful the sea can be uncle" she managed spoke out because she was too stunned at the sea and it's beauty.

"I'm glad you like it" Poseidon said as he felt happy to have a person to have a good comment to his home. He saw something in her eyes. It looked like curiosity. So he thought of something to do that his god child will like. "Phoebe? " he called as the said deity turned her attention to him. Poseidon smiled and held put his hand. Phoebe smiled and took it. A water bubble encased them and it slowly descend to the water.

" This is-- Amazing!! " Phoebe said as she leaned at the water bubble as the fish neared the bubble greeting their god. The fishes played with Phoebe that took notice of Poseidon. He smiled more and placed a hand on her as the bubble around slowly disappeared. She looked at Poseidon with scared look but he gave him a warm looks. "hold your breath and close your eyes" he said. She trusted him and did what she's told. And she felt a warm feeling around her. " breathe my child"  she heard Poseidon said and so she did.  She was breathing normally but she felt no heat. "now open your eyes" he said.

And so she did.

And there before her laid the beauty of the sea creatures. The fishes she was playing earlier swam around her tickling her she was breathing underwater 'but how?'she thought. She looked at her uncle who sent her a smile. She was happy and enveloped him in a hug. "You can come by whenever you like my dear my realm is always welcome for you" he said as he felt her hug tighter. "thank you. "

And from that moment on she would always come by to visit her little fish friends. She was also making a song. A song for the sea. A song about the things she felt at the beach, sea and water. "Uncle Poseidon!! " she called out to the god." oh Dearie you've come" he said as they swim through the deep blue sea. "uncle I made a song about the water. " she said as Poseidon looks at her. "really? Can I hear it? " he asked as they rested on a rock as Phoebe floated in front of him. She cleared her through and sang.

I've been staring at the edge of the water
'Long as I can remember, never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try

Every turn I take, every trail I track
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know, where I cannot go
Where I long to be

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know, if I go there's just no telling how far I'll go

Oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh

I know, everybody on this island seems so happy on this island
Everything is by design
I know, everybody on this island has a role on this island
So maybe I can roll with mine

I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I'll be satisfied if I play along
But the voice inside sings a different song
What is wrong with me?

See the light as it shines on the sea? It's blinding
But no one knows, how deep it goes
And it seems like it's calling out to me, so come find me
And let me know, what's beyond that line, will I cross that line?

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know, how far I'll go

She ended beautifully as every sea creature spun  around her showing their likeness to her song.  Then she saw a small shark. It was hugging her. It already had attached to her. She laughed. "you can keep him"his uncle said as she smiled happily.

" My child be sure to-" "to always be careful with mortal men., father you've told me about that a for a hundredth time now.  Don't worry I won't. " Phoebe said to her father. She wants to live in the human world as a vacation. It took Hades months to agree to this but soon he did. "She'll be fine my love. She is tough" Persephone comforted as Hades nodded.

"I'll talk to her" Phoebe said and entered her mother's quarters.

"Mother?" she called as she satcbeside her mother who rested her head on hers. "father didn't mean to" she said but Persephone kept crying. Phoebe sighed. Then she took her to a place. " Sweetie where did you take us? " Persephone asked "to what I saw" she replied they saw a woman ,she carried a baby in hand a little 3 year old girl. They were sleeping the lady left the two on the dumpster "you're both are burden to me" she said that shocked Persephone's mother senses.
