Hermonie cracked an eye open to find Percy grinning down at her, it was morning already? She thought disgruntled. "Come on Hermonie we've got an hour before sunrise to make sure we've got everything." He said trying to coax her out of her nest of blankets, she had opted to sleep underwater like Percy and had, had what was probably the best night of sleep ever. But now the trick was getting her out of bed.
"10 more minutes." She muttered trying to pull the covers back over her head Percy just rolled his eyes and turned the water around her icy cold. She screeched in surprise sprouting purple blue scales over her arms and up her neck and sitting up sharply as Percy costed back through the water away from her looking startled. "Bastard." She growled he just grinned again unapologetic.
"Well, your up arnt you?" He said with a shrug. "Mission accomplished, but whats with the scales?" She glared at him eyes narrowing. "Its a shapshifting spell iv been working on I just haven't quite gotten the trick of it yet" She said before shooting out of bed and making a grab for him, black claws slicing through the space he had occupied a moment before. She missed, nearly hitting the wall as he costed to the left out of the way. She was certainly more clumsy in the water then he was. "Having a little trouble there Hermonie?" He asked grinning she glared before smirking suddenly. "What?" He asked
"You are forgetting one very important thing Percy" She said sweetly a slender wooden rod appearing in her left and "Im a witch". Crap! Was the only thought Percy had time for as he dodged out of the way of the red bolt of light that boiled the water around it as went.
"Um, can't we talk about this Hermonie?" He asked hurriedly and ducked another bolt this one a light blue. "Im guessing thats a no?" He continued and dodged another blast of light. This was the situation that Triton found when he arrived 15 minutes later, having decided to come early. He watched a bit bemused as Percy was chased around the bay by his irritated and currently still scaled sister, and tryed not to laugh when Percy ran into a sunken tree while dodging a shot of purple light.
"Enough you two." He called saving Percy from getting hit with something no doubt unpleasant. They both looked over at him a little startled.
"Triton? Your early!" Percy said looking relived Hermonie eyed him intently the scales receding into her skin and disappearing as she took in his appearance before smiling at him.
"Hermonie Soren, Its nice to meet you Triton." She said brightly he sent her an amused look.
"What exactly were you planing to do if you caught him?" He asked she just smirked.
"I hadn't quite made up my mind yet I was thinking of turning him green with yellow pokadots for a week, that wouldn't have really prevented him from going on the quest." She said brightly sending Percy an evil smirk. Percy shot him a look that clearly said HELP!
Triton just smirked it would seem Percy still hadn't quite picked up on the fact that most creatures of the sea were predisposed to playing pranks on people, oh well if he was going to survive without going crazy he'd pick up a sense of humor soon enough. "Quite, now are you two packed? We leave in half an hour." He asked mildly, startled looks crossed the two demigods faces and they shot back into the cabin to make sure they had everything. Triton just shook his head and swam after them. They came out into the main room only a few minutes later Percy with a pack Hermonie with her swords strapped on, her cloak over her shoulders.
"Were taking the Akhet right?" She asked he nodded she turned to Percy. "Well lets go put your stuff on board now then, no need to leave that till later." She said before they both disappeared again, back to the surface, Triton just shook his head following, kids.
"So whats the story with the Akhet anyway?" Asked Percy as the surfaced next to the dock and climbing out with ease.
"It was a Christmas present from Horus." She answered grinning "Phat made it." She continued.
"Your joking right?" Asked Triton sounding startled, they both looked behind them to see Triton standing on the dock having changed his tail to legs at some point and joined them on the surface. Hermonie just shook her head.
"No Im not kidding, I was a little surprised on who made it as well, I had to look it up 'cause I couldn't remember who it was." She said Triton just stared at her like she had grown another limb at some point and he had only just noticed. Percy looked between the two of them with raised eyebrows a little confused.
"Whats so significant about that?" He asked Hermonie grinned as Triton just sighed and shot him a look.
"Paht is one of the creators of that world it would be like you getting a Christmas present from Chaos." He explained Percy blinked looking a bit taken aback and looked at Hermonie.
"Um..Why?" He asked she shrugged.
"I have no idea." She said brightly. "But its a really nice ship so Im not going to argue." Triton snorted stepping around them and going up to the Akhet looking it over.
"Certainly an amazing piece of work." He said and jumped on board Hermonie rolled her eyes and got on as well helping Percy up after.
"Come on, this way." She said gesturing to the deck house door and disappearing down below. He followed pausing in amazement at what he found.
"Its bigger on the inside." He stated a little mystified (1) Hermonie looked back at him and nodded.
"I know, not too significantly, and it still follows the contour of the hull, its just this and three bed rooms. One's in the bow, thats mine. Then one on either side of the room here." She said indicating two doors on either side of the spacious living room / kitchen. The room was about about what he would think the entire space below decks would be. The ship itself was large but not awkwardly so. About 60 feet long making the room plenty big enough too make sure you didn't feel like you were stuck in a sardine can. The room was done in varying shades of blue and gold with a carpeted floor and an image of the night sky on the ceiling in black and silver that looked to real to be painted on. A pair of couches were arranged with a black wooden coffee table between them, with a flat screen TV on the wall as well.
"Not bad." Said Triton mildly looking around the room in interest before heading for the left hand door on the side that Hermonie had indicated earlier. Hermonie shrugged and pointed him to the other.

Orion groaned as he woke his head pounding. What the hell had hit him? He wondered cracking his eyes open and taking a look around. All he saw were mossy walls, he blinked for a moment confused, as he tried to figure out how exactly he had gotten there. The last thing he remembered he had been hiding out in the Forbidden forest waiting for Hermonie and her brothers to pick him up they were supposed to be there the day after tommarrow. So what had happened? He had been carefully to stay a healthy distance from the castle just in case, so what exactly...
The door across the room clanged suddenly distracting him as the bolt was push back and the door hauled open. He stared blankly at the person standing there for a moment before letting his head fall back and banging it against the wall. "Why couldn't I have gotten capture by Tom? Or even the fucking acromatuals! But nnnooooooo! I just had to get caught by Bloody Fucking Albus Dumblefuck." He hissed still banging his head against the wall in frustration. Albus scowled and with a flick of his wand sent a bolt of bright red light at Orion making him flinch and hiss in pain. Albus frowned and the light got brighter Orion just snarled at him not making a sound. Albus sighed and let up on the spell.
"Its too bad really." He said with mock sadness. "I had it all planed out for you, you would go through life the good little martyr, defeat voldamort and marry dear ginny and die mysteriously in your sleep after giving her an heir." He sighed and looked back at Orion who was giving him a decidedly creeped out look.
"The worst part of that whole plan of yours would have to be the 'marry Ginny' bit. I wouldn't touch that if the fate of the universe depended on it!" He said a grossed out look on his face. Albus looked at him blankly for a moment before shaking his head.
"Now now my boy, no need to say such things about your future wife!" He said brightly Orion just looked blankly at him for a moment.
"I thought we had just established that your 'grand scheme' went down the toilet?" He asked offhandedly and received another of the red curses that left him feeling like he had lava running through his veins.
"Not quite brat. You see no one knows about this this hiccup in my plans except you and your cousin. And with her out of the picture I can just put you right back where you started." He said.
"And you think ill go along with that?" He asked drily Albus snorted.
"You don't need to thats what memory and compulsion charms are for." He answered smirking and threw another red curse at him making him hiss softly. All the while his was mind spinning with plans, he knew Hermonie was on her way back to get him, but it would be at least 2 days before they got here. He would just have to hope Albus didn't try the spells for a few days. Hurry Hermonie! He thought hopping she head him before he was blasted with the pain curse again.

The were 10 hours out from camp when Hermonie flinched suddenly, a look of agony flashing through her eyes before she collapsed falling away from the wheel and causing the fast moving Akhet to nearly wipeout and flip. Percy dove for the wheel and spun it back straight before slowing them down and crouching down to check on Hermonie. Triton jumped up from below decks looking a bit irritated. "What in Hades wa...Hermonie!" He said spotting his downed sister next to Percy. He shot over looking concerned. "what happened?" He asked sharply Percy shook his head in confusion.
"I don't know, she was fine then looked like she was in pain and fell over!" He answered Triton frowned and put a had on her forehead which then glowed a deep blue color. After a moment he pulled away frowning.
"It was a curse, it looks like it was reflecting on her through her connection to Orion." He said looking a bit concerned. "Something must have gone wrong." Percy shoot a look at Triton before glancing at the wheel.
"We need to get there now, How much faster do you think this thing can go?" He asked grimly Triton smirked in answer.
"Well, lets find out shall we?" He said picking Hermonie up and putting her on the small couch set into the wall next to the wheel, before catching on and spinning the wheel to bring them around to the east again before with a sharp jolt the Ahekt was all but flying over the water.
"Do I even want to know how fast were going?" Asked Percy looking up from where he had been checking once more on Hermonie, Triton laughed.
"Around 400 why? Scared?" He asked tauntingly Percy rolled his eyes.
"Hardly." He answered drily before a groan distracted him. He looked down to see Hermonie blinking up at him blearily. "Are you all right?" He asked she closed her eyes and ran a hand down her face grimacing.
"Ya, im fine." She muttered sitting up with a wince, Percy taking a step back looking concerned.
"What happened?" He asked Hermonie grimaced again closing her eyes for a moment before looking back at him with angry glint in her eyes.
"Orion's been recaptured." She said flatly Percys jaw fell open and was about to answer when a massive BOOM! Of thunder directly over their heads shook the sky cuting him off and making everyone jump, she glanced skyward and sighed. "Well, at least he seems to care!" She said drily making Percy roll his eyes.
"Any idea what Orion condition is?" Asked Triton over another concussive boom of thunder. She sighed a pained look crossing her face.
"He's being tortured, thats why I collapsed he was trying to tell me he had been captured before he couldn't concentrate enough to contact me. I caught the edge of the curse that Dumbledore was using on him." She answered flatly, at this the now rolling storm clouds above them exploded ferociously once more several bolts on lightning hitting the water a healthy distance away from them before a massive gust of wind came up catching the Akhets sails and pushing it even faster. Triton cursed trying to keep the Akhet on course under the new speed boost.
Hermonie looked thoughtful for a moment before getting to her feet, she swayed for a second grimacing, before reaching around Triton and pushing a green button on the console. The Akhet jumped and she sat back down abruptly looking queasy as the Akhet seemed to lift several feet out of the water, the rattling of the deck smoothing out as it picked up slightly more speed.
"Hydrofoil." She said with a shrug at the looks she got in response to this development.
"Just full of surprises aren't you." Said Triton with a sigh considering the ocean racing past them before nodding to himself and looking back at them. "At this speed we'll reach Britain in about 9 hours." he said they both nodded Hermonie sighing and staggering back to her feet, leaning heavily on Percy, as he helped her back down the stairs to her room, she really needed to lay down.
