I woke up floating in some kind of under water cavern.
"What.... The Hades?" I mumbled confused.
"I see you've finally woken up." Said a voice, making me jump.
"Who are you?" I asked. The thing... person.... came out of the shadows and I gasped.
"P-Percy? But you're dead!" This had to be some weird dream.
"Obviously I'm not." He said with a slight smile.
"But, I saw Annabeth.... She... She killed you."
"Not completely. She pushed me into the water, which heals me, as you know." he looked down at his stomach.
"Why didn't you come back?! I went searching for you! I've been moping in the cabin for days! I told Tyson that you were dead!" I rambled on and on.
"I couldn't believe that Annabeth would try to kill me, so I swam to dad's kingdom and help him down here with stuff to get my mind off it."
"So wait, We are in Poseidon's underwater kingdom?" I asked.
"Yea," he said sheepishly, "I've only been here one other time, and I don't think his wife or his son, Triton, will be happy to hear that he has another Demigod child. Took them a while to finally decide that I could stay."
"Well, don't you think Dad will be ok with it, I mean, we are his children." I stated worriedly.
"I honestly don't know. We could go talk to him if you'd like."
"Sure, lets meet daddy." I said sarcastically. Percy grabbed my hand and swam out of the cavern.
I looked around in awe. The kingdom was beautiful. Floating pearls were used as lights, the houses we made from coral, there were mermen swimming everywhere, and we passed the Cyclops forges. It made me wish Tyson were here.
"What are you doing here?" I heard a deep voice call. I turned to see a weird Merman, with two fishtails instead of one, addressing Percy.
"I have to talk to Dad." Percy rolled his eyes.
"He doesn't want to talk to you," He peered over Percy's shoulder, "Or your little friend."
"Where is he Triton?" Percy asked, clearly annoyed.
"In the palace. Better hurry though, my Mom doesn't want to see you in the palace... ever!" He snickered and swam off.
"Well, he seems.... friendly." I said watching him yell at some cyclops.
"Yea, he's just jealous because I'm Poseidon's favorite son." Percy winked at me.
"Uh-huh, sure." I laughed as we continued swimming.
Once we reached the palace, Percy knocked on the door.
"Come on in, Percy." said a loud voice. Percy gestured for me to wait and he swam inside. I, being the nosy person I am, looked through the crack in the door. I saw a man in his mid-thirties with sandy colored hair, bright sea green eyes, he had wrinkles around his eyes from smiling, andhe had a little bit of a scruffy beard.
"Dad, There is someone I want you to meet." Percy said to the man. Wait he said "dad" so that means that's Poseidon!
"Alright, bring them in." Poseidon said smiling. Percy came back out and dragged me into the palace, ignoring my protests.
"Dad, This is-" Percy was cut off.
"Nahla," Poseidon finished, "Haven't seen you since you were a baby."
"It's nice meeting you sir." I blushed, not really knowing what to call him.
"You can call me Dad, Father, Poseidon, anything really." Poseidon said as if reading my thoughts.
"Thank you... Father." It felt strange actually calling someone that. I had never had a dad, so it felt foreign to me.
"Nahla ended up in the middle of the ocean last night." Percy said looking at me, waiting for an explanation.
"Yes well, my anger got the best of me and I might've made a water cyclone. And the water cyclone kind of got out of control, and I couldn't stop it." I said quickly looking at the floor.
"You made a water cyclone?" Percy's face was full of concern, "Did you hurt anyone?"
"I don't think so... The only one on the beach was Annabeth, and she dodged every blast of water." I said feeling super guilty.
"Annabeht?!" Percy gasped, "I figured she would leave camp. Why were you shooting water blasts at her?"
"I didn't mean to. Once my anger got out of control, so did the cyclone. I couldn't do anything to stop it. And then I felt a huge burning in my gut and the cyclone finally shut off, but I wasn't at camp. I was floating in the ocean." I tried to stay calm, but I was feeling too many different emotions.
"When working with the ocean you must keep your anger incheck. Or else your powers will get out of control." Poseidon said, I forgot where we were for a breif moment.
"I understand that now, Father." I whispered.
"Very good." Poseidon smiled, "Percy why don't you show Nahla around."
"Sure." Percy said with a faraway look in his eyes. He led me out the door and showed me the training grounds, the cyclops forges, the houses, everything.
"It's really beautiful here." I said in amazement.
"Yea, I really like it here." He agreed.
"But we can't stay. Now that I know you're alive you can come back to camp." I said happily.
"I can't." Percy looked away.
"Why not?"
"I don't know if I can face Annabeth after what she did."
"You can avoid her! We can tell Chiron, please Percy come back." I pleaded.
"No, Just no" He said and swam away.
