A Coast Guard boat picked them up, but they were too busy to keep them for long, or to wonder how four kids in street clothes had gotten out into the middle of the bay. There was a disaster to mop up. Their radios were jammed with distress calls.
They dropped them off at the Santa Monica Pier with towels around their shoulders and water bottles that said I'M A JUNIOR COAST GUARD! and sped off to save more people. Their clothes were sopping wet. They were also barefoot, because Percy had given his shoes to Grover and Juliet had lost hers in the water.
After reaching dry land, they stumbled down the beach, watching the city burn against a beautiful sunrise. Juliet felt as if she'd just come back from the dead—which she had. The ache in her stomach was gone but Hades and Annabeth's words still rung in her ears making her a little dizzy.
"I don't believe it," Annabeth said. "We went all that way—"
"It was a trick," Juliet said. "A strategy worthy of Athena."
"Hey," she warned.
"You get it, don't you?" Percy came in Juliet's defence.
Annabeth dropped her eyes, her anger fading. "Yeah. I get it."
"Well, I don't!" Grover complained. "Would somebody—"
"Percy . . ." Juliet said. "I'm sorry about your mother. I'm so sorry. . . ."
He pretended not to hear her and immediately changed the subject.
"The prophecy was right," he said. "'You shall go west and face the god who has turned.' But it wasn't Hades. Hades didn't want war among the Big Three. Someone else pulled off the theft. Someone stole Zeus's master bolt, and Hades's helm, and framed me, because I'm Poseidon's kid. Poseidon will get blamed by both sides. By sundown today, there will be a three-way war. And I'll have caused it."
