"Lord Percy watch out that can kill almost any magical creature!" Nick yelled in warning.

Percy waved him away, "relax Nick, I'm fine. This thing is covered with my father's mana, it's harmful to everything that is not of the sea, and since I'm his son it's basically a paperweight," Percy chuckled tossing the spear from hand to hand, "though I have to say I am surprised, who knew such a thing like this existed in this corner of the globe? How did you even get this thing in the first place?"

The mermen were too shocked for words, the chief was stuck somewhere between awe, hate and pure rage.

Percy turned to Nick, "not much for talking are they?"

"H-how are you doing that?!" the chief finally managed to yell as he snatched the coral spear tip away from Percy's hands, "who are you?!"

Percy shrugged, "weren't you listening? I'm Percy Jackson, the son of Poseidon. At your service."

The mermen began to whisper amongst themselves, wondering if this boy in front of them could truly be their lord's son. It was only the chief who outright dismissed this notion.

"No! That is impossible! You cannot be the son of Poseidon! I call you a liar!"

"Hey man I'm many things but I ain't a liar."

"Fine, then prove it boy!"

Percy rolled his eyes, "dude, I'm currently talking to you underwater. Not to mention the fact I'm breathing underwater. Oh and let's not forget I can touch the glowly rock thing of yours with my bare hands."

The mermen looked more and more convinced by the second while the chief was unconvinced.

"Anyone can do that!" the chief yelled out, "you wizards and your magic! Who knows what perverted magic you fools possess?!"

Percy raised an eyebrow, "are you calling me such a great wizard that I was able to overpower the mana of a God?"

The chief opened his mouth to argue but paused realising the implications of what he was saying. He growled, "this still does not prove anything!"

Percy groaned, "gods you are such a pain. What do I have to do to prove myself to you? Split the lake like the Red sea?"

The chief smiled, "yes! Exactly! Do that and you will prove your divine nature!"

Percy raised an eyebrow, "are you serious?"

"What's wrong? Finally willing to admit you are a liar?"

"You do realise if I do this there is a chance on several living fishes dieing yes?"

"That is only if you do it."

"And when I do there are going to be major repercussions," Percy warned.

The chief snorted, "do it wizard, I will deal with your 'repercussion'."

Percy turned to Nick who shrugged. The demigod sighed, "fine, Nick, stand back please, don't want you to get hurt."

The giant squid nodded, moving away, "understood my lord."

Percy then turned to the gathered mermen, "I advise you the same, I don't want to harm you."

The mermen looked worried but the chief snapped at them, "don't move an inch! When this insolent boy fails we will need to be ready to bring him to justice!" This forced mermen to remain where they were, though most would have preferred staying behind Nick.

Percy sighed, "fine, don't say I didn't warn you," he then turned away from the mermen village, less chance of anyone getting hurt this way. Percy closed his eyes and drew upon his demigod power.

He felt the lake connect with him as Percy slowly gained control. He brought his arms together, palms open facing each other and then clenched his fists. 

He began pulling his arms away, struggling to tear into the water before him, and suddenly the entire lake moved.

The sound of water shaking was horrifying for men men's ears. It was to them what a tsunami was to humans. The lake started to move apart mirroring Percy's hands as he slowly tore them away.

The water started to rush as it moved tearing into the water creating a giant fissure in the middle of the Black Lake.

The mermen all looked in awe as their world split before their eyes, even the chief had no snappy comeback for the sight. 

Percy pulled the water apart fully creating a narrowed straight of water between two giant halves of the lake.

He kept them apart for quite a while before bringing brought his hands forward, clapping. The separation closed up instantly shaking the lake for a few seconds before everything went back to the way it was.

The demigod opened his eyes and turned to the chief, "now do you believe me?"

The merman looked at him and nodded dumbly. The other mermen looked horrified, some fearful, while a few amazed. And one very smug looking squid.

"My lord!" a merman exclaimed as he bowed. He looked behind him and motioned for the rest to do the same.

They all immediately did so giving out calls of, 'my lord' and 'my lord'. Percy sighed, he really hated this part.

"Great, now that that's settled let's get down to buisness," Percy cleared his throat, "I need to talk to the one in charge, who would that be?"

"M-Me my lord," the merman chief spoke up in a shaky voice, "I wish to apologize for my earlier comments my lord I didn't-"

"-yeah yeah don't worry about it, all's forgiven and all that. I don't really care man. But what I do want is a couple of questions answered. Think you can do that?"

The chief nodded frantically, "yes my lord! Anything!"

"Nick told me you guys were involved with the tri-wizard tournament. In what way?"

The chief began to explain their role in the tournament giving specific details as to what was expected of him and what he would need to worry about. 

By the end of the chief's explanation Percy had a much clearer picture about the task than anyone else in the tournament, except probably the organisers.

"I see, this is all very interesting thank you," Percy nodded, "well then I guess I'll be off. See you in February!"

"Wait!" the chief called out, "that is it? You are just leaving?"
