Poseidon had once again decided to leave Atlantis because it was completely boring there. He had done all of his work and finished way earlier then expected so he would have to wait for more work to appear. But what was there to do in the mean time? Poseidon always wanted to explore New York, he had gone around once but never found anything that interesting other then Central Park. He loved the way the park was set up and how it looked. Even a God had to admire the job done by the architecture, though Athena could probably make it just as wonderful as Mount Olympus. Poseidon strolled slowly around in his Human form looking like a person who had been there trillions of time just taking a walk alone. He was dressed like all new yorkers. Maybe one extremely fashionable. though he wasn't looking that good. He was dressed appropriate. He wasn't dressed like he was scared of the cold, but didn't dress as if he was going to swim in the cold wheter, which he could because he could regulate the sea's temperature. He stared around, he knew there wasn't much going on in the park today. Usually when he came it was for carnivals, to witness and live a little. To see why humans were always so entertained by people dressing up and making a fool of themselves. As he walked he stared at people with there children. He then let out a sigh thinking "What are my children doing on such a wonderful sunny day? Maybe I should pay Percy a visit some time later today." He then continued walking through the Park. He saw a waterfountain. It seemed to have decent water, but not extremely good or pure. Maybe he could do something about it. He walked over to the water fountain pushing the button realeasing water from it. He then looked at the water before sipping. As he bent his head to drink water the water became so clear that you could probably see anything through it. He drunk the extremely pure water with his wallet sticking out his back pocket. His wallet had nothing but Sea dollars, maybe 500 human dollars, and a picture of Percy. It was nothing much, It was basically just for show when he was in the Human world. Though the picture in there was something he cherished a lot, and wouldn't let anyone have. It was the picture of Percy as a baby. Wordcount: 425 Words

The pale pink bubblegum bubble popped with a faint crack, the wheels of a skateboard rolled easily over the stone paths. Jacqueline wound her way through out the park, the edges of her over sized shirt flapped slightly in the breeze. On first glance one would think she was a boy, what with her long hair pulled up and out of the way in a messy ponytail, her larger then her small frame shirt and jeans. This was Jac in a nutshell. The tomboy skater girl. She didn't care what people thought or said about her.
She was who she was, and Jac wasn't going to change for anyone or anything. For the moment it felt great to be out of the camp. The thief had always been a slight escape artist, and quite frankly, the camp was feeling a bit closed in at the moment. But New York, ah yes, the city that never sleeps, the bright lights and fat wallets of it's inhabitants called to her. How could Jac resist such a temptation. Well, she couldn't, and thus the day found her skating along the park.
For the moment the teen had only come across and relieved various tourists of their money. They were always stupid, at least in her mind, carrying such vast amounts of money around on them. It made for extremely easy pickings.
Jac slowed to a halt, fingers coming up to grasp onto the brim of her baseball cap and gently pulling it down over her eyes, tossing the blue orbs into shadow. She had found her next victim at the water fountain, or rather, he seemed to be screaming at her to rob him. The smallest of smirks crossed her lips as she rolled over down the concrete sidewalk, the skateboard wheels gently bumping along the cracks. The movement was smooth, as if the girl had been stealing all her life, which, if one looked at it she had been.
Jac's quick fingers plucked the wallet from the man's pocket before she became nothing but a distant blur. A small shake of her head was given as the smirk widen. To easy.

As Poseidon's head raised from the sea he turned to look both ways. He saw a girl on her Skateboard and sighed and thought about a ridiculous thought that he even laughed out inside of his head "Kids these days.. Whats with this skateboard trend maybe I should buy one?" Poseidon then reached into his back pocket to see if he could actually buy one for Percy, maybe he would like it since he never got to see his dad, and now that he had joined the camp he couldn't even see his mom. Losing his train of though Poseidon quickly continued to feel his back Pocket.
He couldn't have dropped it. He searched on the ground, that was his only image, or only time he had seen Percy when he was just born. There was no way that he could of misplaced it. Unless... Poseidon saw the girl on the skateboard and laughed hysterically. He thought while he continued to laugh "Mortals these days.. Why do they do this? Knowing it will only upset the gods if you steel from someone. Today maybe this girl had just decided to steal for the first time and happened to have picked the pocket of a god."
It was one thing to pick pocket a god, but when you picked pocketed the god of the sea, and earth you were pretty much screwed. Poseidon finally stopped laughing Histerically and decided to test this mortal. He began to walk after her screaming "My wallet, My wallet... Please return it! I promise I won't hurt you, i'll even give you some of the money in there." He couldn't help but giggle in between each word he had said.
Poseidon began to run fast in a attempt to catch up with her. He wasn't sure how skateboards work, so he couldn't really tell if she was turning around of if she was still going, or just waiting to find a place to stop because she doesn't know how to stop it. One thing was for sure, the theft of Poseidon's wallet was no accident as he thought "Mortals these days, now lets see. Will this young lady return my wallet, or will she suffer the wrath of none other then the Sea God himself, Poseidon?"
