It was morning on the Argo II. Everyone was gathered for breakfast. Talking and hanging out the Seven all tried to not think about what was coming.

Suddenly Percy started to hum. He cocked his head in a way that got Annabeth's attention.

"What Seaweed Brain?" She asked, taking another bite of eggs. Percy of course had blue pancakes.

"I just have a song stuck in my head and can't remember the name of it." Percy pouted a bit. How everyone at the table was holding in laughter. The grey Percy Jackson, stumped by a song in his head.

"Well what's so lyrics so we can help?" Jason asked.

Percy hummed a bit then opened his mouth to sing.

I wrote the gospel on giving up (You look pretty sinking)
But the real bombshells have already sunk (Prima donnas of the gutter)
At night we're painting your trash gold while you sleep
Crashing not like hips or cars
No, more like parties

Percy had his eyes closed focusing on trying to get the words right. What he didn't see was that ever one else had stopped what they were doing. And sitting completely still. Gawking at him.

Percy opened his eyes and raised an eyebrow. "What?" The shook everyone out of their trance. They all stared at them in shock.

"Percy?" Annabeth asked. "You... You... Sing again!" She said. Her eyes were wide.

"Why?" But seeing everyone's stare he just started to.

When the moon fell in love with the sun
All was golden in the sky
All was golden when the day met the night

When the sun found the moon
She was drinking tea in a garden
Under the green umbrella trees
In the middle of summer

When the moon found the sun
He looked like he was barely hanging on
But her eyes saved his life
In the middle of summer (summer)

In the middle of summer
All was golden in the sky
All was golden when the day met the night
Summer (summer)
All was golden in the sky
All was golden when the day met the night
Summer, summer, summer, summer
All was golden when the day met the night

So he said, "Would it be all right
If we just sat and talked for a little while
If in exchange for your time
I give you this smile?"

So she said, "That's OK
As long as you can make a promise
Not to break my little heart
Or leave me all alone in the summer."

Well he was just hanging around
Then he fell in love
And he didn't know how
But he couldn't get out
Just hanging around
Then he fell in love

In the middle of summer
All was golden in the sky
All was golden when the day met the night
Summer (summer)
All was golden in the sky
All was golden when the day met the night
Summer, summer, summer, summer
All was golden when the day met the night

Summer, summer, summer, summer
In the middle of summer, summer, summer, summer
The middle of summer, summer, summer, summer
The middle of summer, summer, summer, summer
In the middle of

He finished. Looking at his friends he saw Piper and Hazel about to cry The guys all just sat there open mouthed and Annabeth ran over and threw her arms around him.

"Anyone want to explain what's happening?" Was all he said. Everyone's head's shook. They all looked confused. Hazel and Piper touched their cheeks where the tears had leaked through.

"What happened?" Piper asked.

"I sand a few lines of a Fall Out Boy song. Then was asked to keep singing so I sang some Panic At The Disco. You guys keep acting weird." Percy eyed them all. Annabeth had sat back down.

"Um... It must be..." Annabeth shook her head a few times. "Be... Be because... The... The sirens. You.. you're related to them they... They are offspring of Poseidon. Your..." She blinked a bit. "You some how have a bit of that kind of power."

Percy just closed his mouth. "OK no more singing from me." Everyone laughed and past it off.

A while later no one knew that Percy sung to Annabeth at night to help her sleep.
