The biggest problem that the main character Percy is faced with is working together with Annabeth. Percy and Annabeth are faced with multiple conflicts with various monster throughout the novel, but because they have a problem with working together they almost get each other killed.

During the book so far Percy and Annabeth haven't been dealing with there problem of working together. They finally realize there problem when they are set up by Ares the God of war, he sends Percy, Grover, and Annabeth to an old abandon water park. Ares sent them to this water park to recover his shield, he left his shield in the tunnel of love.
Not knowing that this was a trap Percy and Annabeth walked into the tunnel of love while Grover stayed outside and keeped a look out. When Percy picked up the shield the gates to the ride closed and the cupid stautues at the beginning of the ride turned and shot arrows with extremely fine threads on the end, making a web. T.V. screens light up with numbers showing...5.4.3.2.1.. Then it turned into a live feed straight to olympus, then hundreds of little mechanical spiders came pouring out of the old water pipes. Percy and Annabeth jumped into the boat and yelled at Grover to go to the control room and turn the ride on, the controls where broken so it was up to Percy and Annabeth to finally work together and get out the trap. Percy used his power to control water and turned on all the water pipes to the ride, Percy and Annabeth jumped into the boat and followed the ride out to the bottom. When they got to the bottom of the ride they were faced with another problem, the fence was closed and Percy couldn't stop the water they were going to fast. Annabeth told Percy that they could jump the fence with the force of the water, on the count of three Percy and Annabeth jumped over the fence and were now heading straight for the ground, when Grover grabbed them out of the air with hid flying shoes.

  1. If I was sent on an important mission and I couldn't get along with the people sent with me, I'd consentrate on the mission and at least try to cooperate with the people that were sent with me. I wouldn't have much choice.

  2. If I was sent on a important mission, and I could not get along with the people, than I would just tell everyone the truth, and tell them that I am here to focus on the mission and so are you. So let everything else slide, and just work together to accomplish it.

  3. If i was sent on an important mission, and didnt like the people i was with i would probably just try and cooperate with them. Or i would try and become friends with them and make the mission more enjoyable
