5. Why Percy start feeling a little sorry for Hades when he sees Zeus’ palace?

 because he go kicked out of that place was kinda unfair, and it would make anybody bitter.

6. Percy says he is glad, in a strange way, that Poseidon is so distant. Why? 

 Because if he'd tried to apologize, or  told me he loved me, or even smiled, it would've felt fake.

7. Does this make sense to you? How does Zeus reward Percy?

 Well not really, anyways Zeus rewards Percy by sparing his life.

8. Who was speaking from the pit? Why do think Zeus doesn’t want to talk about it?

 Poseidon? Maybe because when they talk about it, it reminds him of what happened and that day, who knows maybe he never wanted that to happen or to happen like that.

9.  How do you think Poseidon feels about Percy? How can you tell?

 Good!, in his child, like he could actually clam him and be proud to call him his son.
