POSEIDON POV
the sisters' words echoed in my brain, they rattled around and rearranged themselves as I tried to make sense of them. what do they mean? why am I so drawn to her? i decided that I cannot face her because of the words that I spoke to her yet I still itch to know her name and all that there is to know about her.
i wander the house as I ponder these thoughts, frustration at their lack of answers creating tension in my shoulders. an idea bursts into my brain and i begin to stride towards the back of the house where the weapons range is. the wall is covered with all kinds of weapons from guns to axes to tasers i have quite the collection. Yet I am Poseidon and my favoured weapon is the trident, I clasp the magnificent instrument and make my way to the training area and begin to work out my frustrations.
three hours later I am still there but have moved onto other wepons: throwing knives, pistols, even a sword and yet I am still bothered by the sisters' answer.

Punch punch kick.
"I'll take that as a no then. You know you can just send her home, erase the memories of these last couple days and just continue on life as normal."
Punch. "No."
"Why?"
"because." Punch. I can feel Hermes' gaze burning into my back at my lack of proper answer as I continue to use the punching bag. He huffs and leaves.
