The Son of Triton Chapter 8: So close and yet so far, to our possible death

Chapter 8: So close and yet so far, to our possible death
"We are currently in Paradise Valley Park. Not far from Sachuest Bay and Sachuest Point National Wildlife Refuge." Percy said as he came from talking to a complete stranger. Rick was constantly asking question this time, he asked, "Why can't we just go there now?" Percy looked as annoyed as ever, "Because we have to rest every now and then."

That night we mover closer to the water, or a giant pond. Gardiner Pond. We built a fire, set up our tents, so we apperaed as regualr kids in highschool camping out by a lake in summer, enjoying good times. Except we weren't, we weren't even close to that. About an hour later we heard a screeching sound, and an eagle landed at our camp site. Percy looked confused and said, " Weird, messenger birds, are not all that common with the Greeks." When Rick tried to get close, it bit his finger. When Percy tried it bit his finger too. It eventually flew over to my feet. It turned around and revealed a little pack. I opened it and inside was a scroll, nectar and ambrosia. It took out the note and looked in side and said, "It's from Chiron." I read it.

Dear Triston and accomplises,

''The Long Island Sound has risen covered the whole woods. The Hephaestus cabin has set up barricades, but the water keeps rising. It is becoming harder and harder to control it. Each day it rises, and the campers are advised to stay in the cabins, but the water has almost reached the cabins. We need you to save Poseidon before the water covers the whole camp. Hurry!''

From,

Chiron, Head Counseler at Camp Half-Blood

We immediately packed out things, mounted our pegasi, and flew all the way infront of the Refuge, the next day we would have to get to the bay immediately and save Poseidon. But one thing kept gnawing at the back of my head. The prohecy said something about an army. If Polybotes really had an army, we were in trouble.
