Percy Jackson's World discussion

Roleplay for outside camp. Mostly only for quests.

Asmara looked around. She was standing in an underwater palace that looked similar to her father's palace but had a harsher theme. How did I get here? She was standing in front of a throne.

Seiji was dreaming from the Hepheastaus cabin, and he could see Asmara standing in a palace.

((yay Audrey you're here! Now we need Angel...))

Oceanus watched her from his throne, contemplating. He leaned closer to her and smiled a wicked smile. "I bet your confused." He laughed darkly.

Asmara snapped her head around, glaring at him. "Oceanus," she said angrily. "This is your palace." It wasn't a question.

Oceanus chuckled. "Of course it is. Where did you think you were? Your father's place?" He looked her straight in the eye, a crazed look in his eyes. "I'm sorry to tell you but I'm not Daddy."

Asmara's fingers twitched, one hand resting on her bracelet. Thank gods she'd gotten it fixed by Seiji, she thought. She glanced around at the palace. "Not too fancy, dude," she told Oceanus. "The ceiling's crumbling."

Oceanus made a face. "Well, aren't you observant? And I prefer you not call me 'dude'." Oceanus was trying to be patient with her.

Asmara shrugged. "The eyes..." she said, pointing to her changeable eyes. She knew she was annoying him. His fault for flashin her here. "Whatever dude. You need a better interior decorater. Is that why you brought me here? Cuz let me tell you right now, that is so not my thing."

Seiji felt so glad that he had fixed her bracelet. But he was still worried. What was Oceanus playing at?

Oceanus smiled at Asmara. He was going to have fun breaking her spirit. "So tell me what is your 'thing'?" He leaned back into his throne and crossed his legs feeling perfectly comfortable. He was in control here.

Asmara raised her eyebrows. What was Oceanus's plan? Why had he brought her here. "Well...I kill monsters. And I would like to smash my sword into a certain evil Titan's face. You're immortal, sure, but a sword in the face wouldn't feel good."

Oceanus laughed. Brave words wouldn't help her. They wouldn't rescue her and take her back to camp. They wouldn't hold her and tell her that everything would be alright. It's desperate hope that makes people use such words and it was pitiful. "I suppose not....." He smiled at Asmara.

Asmara glared at him. "So, Mr. Wannabe Ruler of the Seas, why did you bring me to your leaky palace? It couldn't have been just to have this nice conversation," she said bitingly, her voice full of sarcasm.

Oceanus smirked at her. "And why not? What makes you think I don't kidnap people just to talk?" He was just messing with her now.

Asmara rolled her eyes. "Can we get to the point? Or does your immortal brain just not work fast enough?"

Oceanus gave her another smirk. "I think you know a little more than what you let on. In fact, I think you know something no one else at camp knows.....Maybe a way to stop a monster." Oceanus showed no emotion. His face was like stone as he bored his dark, cold eyes into Asmara.

Asmara took an involuntary step back, again remembering that long ago conversations with Poseidon. She quickly recovered from her shock that he knew that she knew a way to defeat the monster and said, "You sent he monster. Of course."

Oceanus smiled. "What do you know?" Oceanus looked deep into her eyes.

Asmara glared at him. "Like I'm going to tell you," she scoffed. "What's your game, Oceanus?"

((he needs to tell her his plan so that Seiji can overhear))

((okay))

"Alright, sweetheart, I'll tell you. I don't want you to stop that monster. I want that monster to threaten the camp so much that your father gives in to save it. In fact, I want you here as another reason for Poseidon to give in." Oceanus looked rather bored as he explained.

Asmara felt a little surprised. "So you're planning to keep me...hostage? Good luck with that."

Oceanus laughs darkly. "Your the one who will be needing good luck, sweetheart."

Asmara lifted her chin, refusing to give him the satisfaction of scaring her. "You can't keep me as hostage," she said coldly. "You think I'll follow a lot quietly?"

Seiji grimaced. That son of a gorgon wants to threaten camp and Poseidon! This is bad.... Seiji tried to call out to Asmara, but nothing came out of his mouth.

"I don't doubt you'll want to put up a fight, sweetheart." Oceanus mocked her. "In fact, I have prepared for just that." Oceanus snapped and summoned his henchman. Before they could come, he willed an unbreakable bubble cage around Asmara, trapping her.

Asmara tapped her bracelet and her sword appeared in her hands. She swung, only to hit the bubble thing. "Coward," she sneered. "You hide behind a bubble, oh mighty Titan?" she mocked him.

((should Silver and I come in?))

((yes))

Asmara whistled the tune that always brought Shadow to her side, but this time Shadow didn't appear.

Sonny grinned and began to bark. (?)

((lol he can tell her that they stole Shadow if you want))

Sonny grinned and walked up to Asmara. "You calling for your puppy?" he grinned. "Well you won't see it."

Asmara glared at him. "You're the only puppy i'm seeing," she snapped, tryin to hide her fear for Shadow.

Sonny growled. She flicked his tail and an image of Shadow in a cage howling appeared.

((Shadow is a panther, just so you know, and they haven't really captured her, they're just saying that to make Asmara do what they want))

Asmara instinctively reached toward the image then drew her hand back. "Where is she?" she yelled. "What did you do to her?"

((Ok sorry, I didn't know and is Shadow a girl?))

Sonny cakled, if a dog could do that. "Your kitty is very safe, no worries."

((yeah she's a girl))

Asmara glared at him. "Don't you dare touch her, you filthy mutt," she spat at him.

"Too late." Sonny grinned, drooling a bit.

Asmara looked wildly around, thrusting her sword at the chimera's face. "What did you do to her?" she demanded.

Oceanus laughed at the rather delightful display in front of him. He enjoyed seeing Asmara's panic. "Sonny, why don't you show our guest to her new room?" Oceanus said with a devilish smile.

Asmara spun and glared at Oceanus. "If you so much as touch her, I swear will shred you," she snarled.

Oceanus laughed some more, thoroughly entertained. "I bet you will. But for now, you're going with Sonny." He had a deadly look in his eyes and his voice made it clear that Asmara didn't have a choice.

Asmara shook her head stubbornly. "I'm not going anywhere." Calm down, she told herself. Shadow can take care of herself.

"Now, I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable here," He said with a mock frown. "But if you don't go willingly then I'll have to force you."

Asmara stood her ground. "I'm already 'uncomfortable'," she said, annoyed. "You're really not the best host, just so you know. And your plan will never work."

"And you're not the most charming guest." Oceanus countered. "Take her away, Sonny." He waved them off, as if swatting a fly.

((Can you have him say that she should be at Mount Tam and have Oceanus flash them there? So that the quest members will know where to go))

Asmara glared at Sonny, holding her sword up in a defensive position. "You stay away from me."
