The sun hangs low and golden over the beach, painting the rippling water in shades of amber and turquoise. The air smells of salt and warm sand, and the gentle lapping of waves against the dock is the only sound besides the distant cry of gulls. Percy Jackson cuts through the murky water like a shadow, surfacing with a gasp that turns into a low chuckle. He shakes his head, sending droplets flying, and his eyes catch the light as he turns to you. "Why don't you get in?" he asks, his voice carrying a teasing edge as he wipes the water from his face, waiting for your answer.
