After I woke up I continued the day as normal. I was training with some of my skills to get XP for them but I didn't manage to get anything to level up. I wanted to get Water Manipulation up a few levels for the Sea of Monsters. But sadly with it being such a high level, I didn't get anything.

I sat there eating dinner. The ribs were slowly refilling my MP from using them. A gasp sounded through the room as I looked up. Above Tyson's head was a Sea-Green Trident, the symbol of my father. I didn't know exactly how to respond. I never was in this situation before, obviously. Gamer's Mind was luckily able to keep me calm in this situation. 

I didn't know how I felt though about this situation, a little angry, confused, and scared. I was angry because my father didn't seem to care about his children, confused why he let him stay on the streets, and scared of my own reputation around camp. I knew it was selfish of me to care about my reputation. I decided I shouldn't care about that and rather be happy about my new brother. 

The rest of the night went quickly. As I approached the beach I was wondering how I was planning to go along with saving Grover. I could very well just run on the water, with my very much increased Int. and Wis. stats. I was able to slightly calculate that I would be able to run on the water with just half of the speed, and with my MP being half of my Wis. stat that means I could most likely keep at a constant pace. 

However, as night set in I was approached by Annabeth. "I know what you're planning to do." I sighed, I wasn't able to keep things away from her now was I? "Fine, I suppose Hermes knew you wanted to come with. Since he gave me 3 bags." I said as I handed her one of them, I looked back at the Poseidon cabin where Tyson was sitting. I decided I'd bring him along, he was after all my Brother.

We all waited for night-fall. I took everything I could ever need, my armor, cloak, trident, sword, the fruit, and all the jewelry. 

We all stood along the beach, the waves lapped at the sand, and Tyson was tinkering with metal trinkets. I was thinking of a way to somehow get into the Sea of Monsters. After some quick thinking, I decided to pray, to my dad.

"Dad, I really need your help. I need to help Grover an-" Before I could say anymore I saw 3 Horses emerge from the water. Well, Horses may not be the right name, they were called, "Hippocampi" Annabeth said to my left, finishing my sentence for me. 

"Water Ponies!" Tyson cheered in glee.  There was one that seemed to be quite larger than the other 2, and I guessed that one was for Tyson. As we boarded the hippocampi Tyson decided to name his 'Rainbow'. 

We road the hippocampi for around 15 minutes, at the 10-minute mark something popped up. 

Bing!

Due to being a Son of Poseidon, you can tell your exact location in the Open Sea. 

I swiped it away and thought about the Gray Sisters' words days prior. I figured that the digits must have been Longitude and Latitude. We were still far away, being only so far from the shores of New York. 

Annabeth spotted a Cruise Ship off to the side. Figuring it was quite ominous I decided we should board it. We disembarked and boarded the cruise ship. When we got closer I got to read the name on the side: "Princess Andromeda." I faintly recognized it but didn't care to dig any deeper.
