Ajax Jackson and the Atlantis Lessons

Ajax Jackson 

Atlantis was calm today. I hadn't been here for a while, not since I joined Camp Half-Blood. When I was three I was taken to Atlantis by Poseidon, my umm...stepfather?

He took me in and raised me. Well, a mermaid raised me since he was too busy being the Sea God but he took me in anyway. I was raised in Atlantis for about 10 years then I was taken to Camp Half-Blood. I would've gotten there earlier but Pearl, my mermaid mother, didn't like the idea of me leaving.

My past is not very clear to me, all I know is that my father died protecting me and that he was part of The Olympian League which now is nothing but ruins. During one of the attacks on the league my father was forced to sent me away and somehow Poseidon rescued me. I am still not sure what happened but sometimes I have dreams...or more like nightmares about it.

"Hey Ajax?" a merman swam towards me.

"Hey Carrel," I waved at him. I've known him since I was young, he is one year older than me and we've been best friends since I can remember.

"How's life been?"

"Boring." I answered. "How about you? I heard from a little fish that a mermaid is after you."

"Shut it!" He yelled as his face went red.

I couldn't help but laugh at him. The guy was one of the best warriors in Atlantis and attracted many mermaids but he was too shy. He always liked this mermaid which was also one of my best friends in Atlantis. Her name? Ariel, beautiful mermaid to be sincere I was kind of also atractted to her but I wouldn't betray my best friend.

"So Carrel, want to lose in a short fight like always?" I told him. "You know I am kind of getting tired of winning."

"You wish Jackson!" He replied and took out his sword. "You won't get even a hit with that trident of yours."

"I am not using a trident," I smiled as I took out a pen. "Got a gift from papa poseidon, this is Riptide." I uncapped the pen which turned to long beautiful sword.
