The 'Son of Sobek was a large crocodile terrorizing Long Island.

History
Sometime before the start of the story, a baby crocodile was given a necklace belonging to Sobek, an Egyptian water god that looks like a crocodile. The necklace turned the small crocodile into an unstoppable monster that proceeded to terrorize Long Island, even managing to eat two pegasi from Camp Half-Blood. This angered Percy Jackson, who spent about two weeks trying unsuccessfully to track down and defeat the monster. Carter Kane also tried to track down the monster, but with little luck as well.

The Son of Sobek
While looking for the crocodile, Carter flies in on w:c:kanechronicles:Freak to investigate, but Freak senses the crocodile and flies away, leaving Carter stranded. Soon, the crocodile attacks Carter and swallows him whole. Before Carter is able to save himself, Percy Jackson appears and stabs the crocodile, causing it to spit out Carter and it flees into a nearby cul de sac. Percy and Carter both go after it after calling a truce between them, with Carter explaining that the necklace gave the crocodile its power and made it impossible to kill.

Carter uses combat magic to form an avatar of the god w:c:kanechronicles:Horus and distracts the crocodile while Percy jumps on it and tries to unlock the necklace, but can't as he isn't a magician. Carter is soon knocked into a house and his avatar begins to fail as the crocodile starts to bite into it. Carter and Percy trade places, with Percy making a small hurricane to distract the crocodile while Carter uses his magic to unlock the necklace. The large crocodile returns to the form of a baby crocodile. Carter and Percy then flee with the baby as the police arrive to assess the damage.

Carter and Percy take the crocodile to a dinner and Percy questions what they will do with it. Carter suggest bringing him to the Brooklyn House in order to give Philip_of_Macedonia someone to play with.

Abilities
