Percy's POV

Come on! Go after him! But what if she doesn't want me there?

Something in my mind is bugging me. I have the feeling that I should go after Leo, but what if Calypso doesn't want me there and I'll only make things worse.

After 29 minutes of think in my cabin, I finally decided to go. I didn't pack anything. I walked over to the Athena cabin at about 2 am and knocked on the door.

Annabeth showed up half asleep. I explained everything and she nodded.

"Okay, just be careful out there cause the you might be the child of the prophecy," she said softly and kissed me.

Then I took a note and left it on the steps of the Big House for Chiron. I walked to the beach and stepped to the water. I never get wet except when I want to.

I feel the power of the waves surging through my veins. I took my sea green wave board with the trident. I muttered good bye to camp and started to swim off using my board.

I used my powers to speed up and I then I stood up surfing. I made a wave the height of a tree and it made me double up my speed. That went on for hours.

Next thing I know the sun was up and I was exhausted. So I jumped of my wave board and let the water touch me and make me wet. The power came rushing through my veins again and I am ready to set out again.

Then, something caught me in the corner of my eye. I saw my dad's palace. I swan down with my board as quickly as possible and when the mermen saw me, they bowed with respect and let me in. Everything was so beautiful with pearls and corals decorating the walls. Its light can be seen from miles away.

I went to my dad's throne and saw him sitting there with his casual Hawaiian shirt and flip flops with his short pants. He was holding his Trident while talking to a sea creature.

When he saw me he materialized and appeared next to me.

"Hey dad!" I said.

"Hey, so what are you doing here?" He asked.

"Well I kinda am looking for Leo to help him find Ogygia," I replied.

"Oh, you know no-" he said but I cut him off.

"Man can come to Ogygia twice? I figured you would say that!" I said.

"You are my son. And to help you, here!" He said handing me a compass.

"This'll tell you where to go and when you are right next to it or above it, it'll explode," he said.

"Thanks, and can you give me a ride there? A wave would be nice. And also d'you see the ship anywhere?" I asked

"Yes but I'll leave that to" he replied.

"I have!" Someone said.

"My name is Frederick and I've seen it go west," a shark said.

"Thanks Frederick," I said.

"Hey Perce, have you heard about the Supreme Prophecy?" He asked.

"Yeah, why?" I asked.

"Well it'll come soon. The reason it hasn't come the Oracle is because it was lost in Kronos's gut. I was there remember? So I have it. But I'm not giving you since I gave the insides to the Spirit of Delphi already," he said.

"Where is it now?" I asked.

"In my hall of fa-" he said. "Styx!"

I materialized to his hall and saw a parchment in a frame. I took it and materialized back to the throne room.

"Found it!" I said.

"Well fine take it, your Camp needs it earlier anyways," Poseidon said.

I walked back to the front door before he said, " Where d'you think you're going?"

"Back to the surface?" I replied.

"You took my parchment containing the most important prophecy of the Greeks and Romans. You think I'm letting you off that easily? You need troops, many of them," he said.

"Mermen! Sea creatures! Gather!" He shouted and the throne room was completely full by then.

"Mermen pick five thousand of your best fighter to go with my son! Sea creatures pick five hundred to go with my son!" He commanded.

They quickly divided themselves and I was left with 5500 sea creatures. I mouthed "thanks dad" and gave him a short hug. Then I left the palace and broke surface and stand on my board.

A wave the height of a tower arose and crashed against my board. My board sped up with amazing speed and my 5500 creatures followed behind me.

A small wave stayed with me all the way and finally after 6 hours of surfing, I caught sight on Leo's ship. I doubled the speed of my board and stopped next to it.

"Special delivery! For the name of Flame Head!" I yelled.

"Percy?!" Leo replied appearing in the deck.

"Yeah!" I yelled back and smiled.

I controlled the waters to lift me up. Just as I was on the deck I saw a sleepless Leo who's hair was really on fire. I took some water and splash it at his face.

"Hey, would you do me a favor and open the bottom lounge, and not freak out?" I asked.

"Why?!" He asked.

"Look outside!" I replied with a smirk.

He looked outside and gasped.

"They won't fit there Perce," he said.

"Fine," I replied a little disappointed.

"Hey, look I got a compass from my dad that tells you where Calypso is," I said as  I handed him the sea green compass with a gold pointing arrow.

"Thanks man!" He said.

So we sailed through the night without monsters since the mermen fought all of them.
