"Val..." Jerez's voice softened, "He's telling the truth, he looks nervous, but his eyes aren't twitching, he isn't moving his hands, and his feet are stationary...I believe him. We're both really sorry Jacob."

Valerie eased some because she knew that if Jerez can trust him she can "Sorry but what were you doing here?"

Jacob was less tense looked to Jerez. "Thank you. Im curious how you are so good at reading me like a book." He then looked to Valerie. "I can see you don't really trust me. But if you must know, I was about to sit under this tree and research..." Jacob paused a moment. "Cyclops. I hear there are a couple of warring tribes of them. Didn't know if that would ever come in handy"

He walked up the hill and huffed when he paused and saw Jacob, "So you already choose him?"

"Chosen?" Jacob said. "I've declined. They're going to take you. I'm staying here. I'm going to find out more about the Cyclops. What else could a geek be useful for?" Jacob turned to Val. "I havn't found anything yet. When I do I'll contact you guys. And in case you're wondering how," Jacob held up his fist to show them a gauntlet with tons of Greek letters. "I'll use this." He pressed a seemingly random combination of letters. A large red bird circled above them and land on Jacob's shoulder. It was a pheonix. "She carries messages. Actually, I do know something. You cant go by sea. You have to fly. You might wanna check into the Hephaestus kids."

"No need," Jerez said, "I've made a friend here, who can shadow travel his way in and out directly through the walls, he's a small shadow dragon, whom I call Dusk, he's a bit smaller than the average horse, so he can carry two, maybe three at a time...he's mighty strong, there's just not enough room on his back. I've also befriended a Phoenix, her name's Flare. I don't really know how these Cyclopes are catching these wild mythical beasts, but I don't like it."

He walked up the hill, and said, "River told me to meet him here. So where is he?" He asked, "Why would he choose me to go on a quest when I'm not even claimed?"

"I don't know!" Jacob was getting upset. "He and Val just need to choose someone! Do you guys know how much time we're wasting?! We have transportation. We know where to go. Just choose the camper and go!" His pheonix Clip flapped his wings. Jacob threw him a sunflower.

"Jacob's right...all of you need to kick it into high gear, I know I can last for a long time, but I don't know about River's brother."

Valerie put her head in her hands "I dont know what to do." then she got an idea "Jerez, if you help me and River I wonder if that will count as three.And if so then you three can say your going on your own quest."Valerie paused a moment thinking it out "Then we wouldnt have to choose and no one would die."

"Full of ideas aren't you Val," Jerez's shadow tried to smile, "I can only help in my shadow form, and it will drain my energy, but it would count...I couldn't be there all the time you realise...I have to sleep to regain power...but it's a good idea. One group will have to travel by air, the other by sea...that's all you need to decide..."

"There is a problem with that idea. You can't go by sea. Ever hear of the Odyssey? Odysseus had to fight Scylla on top of a cliff, Charybdis on the sea floor, and all the other little beasties. Oh yeah I forgot to mention I know where it is. It's three close islands that are just about a hundred miles from Polyphemus's island. It's in.... the Bermuda Triangle."

"I've just realised another problem..." Jerez said, "I need a body...without a proper one...I can help you, but I just don't count as another person, especially on a quest to save me."

Jacob turned to Gale and Lucas. "I need to know what you guys can do. It will help us decide. And it can also help us figure out who your parent is, Gale. All I can do is fight and navigate. Lucas, I don't know. And Gale, I don't even know you. So tell me, what can you do?"
