OLIVER
"I'm Maddy, daughter of Apollo."
"I'm Adam, son of Aphrodite."
"And I'm Oliver, son of Aphrodite and grandson of Hades."
"Are you really a Zhang?" a boy that looked my age with grease all over him asked.
"Yep."
Lots of people nodded and a black haired boy with sea-green eyes stood up. "I'm Percy, that's Annabeth, Leo, Nico, Frank, Hazel, Jason, Piper, Selina, and Bekandorf." Percy pointed to everyone there. That was a lot of people. "And welcome to the Argo II! Anyway, tonight Oliver and Nico can watch the ship, then Annabeth and I will go out." He said.
"We should be home by morning," Leo added.
"Good. Now, lets suit you up!" Percy said to me as I shook my head.
"Oh, but I'm already prepared." I pulled a dagger from my belt and pushed a button that made it grow into a full length celestial bronze sword. I pushed buttons on the bracelets I was wearing and they became armor for my chest and back. "Although, I don't think I need the armor." Everyone there stared wide-eyed at me.
"Are you sure you're not a son of Ares?" Frank asked.
"Yep," I said and popped the P. "Just prepared."
"Alright, just go out and patrol," Percy said all boss-man like.
"Eye-eye captain!" I mocked quietly.
"What was that?" Percy asked.
"Nothing General Percy," I said. His eyes squinted as he glared at me. He pulled a pen out of his pocket.
"Don't make me use this!" he exclaimed.
"Ooh, a pen! I'm so scared!" I exclaimed. He clicked it and it became a sword. "It's on!" I yelled. Our swords clanked together as we fought. He tried to disarm me lots of times, and I simply blocked it. He was getting sweaty while I wasn't at all yet. I then disarmed him, kicked him to the ground, and put the point of my sword at his throat and placed one foot on his stomach. "Now what?"
He took a deep breath and a huge wave crashed onto the deck. I quickly turned my sword back into a dagger and turned into a duck and flew up to avoid the wave. "A son of Poseidon? Sweet! a challenge!" I quacked out.
The wave went over the other side of the boat as I dived down towards Percy. At the last second, I turned into a hawk and was about to claw him when I heard someone yell "STOP!"
I stopped in mid-air and fluttered to the ground. Annabeth came running over with an angry face. "Stop."
I turned into myself and looked at the ground.
Annabeth looked at me. "You can go sleep. Piper will show you and Adam where you'll be staying."
