Percy tricked Crusty by flattering him and pretending to ignore his friends. He wondered if a bed would have no waves (I don't get that either) if a big guy like Crusty sat on it and got him to sit down on it. He then did the snap-finger-Ergo thing and tied him to it, then killed him with Riptide. I hope you're not asking because you're in a similar situation.

Ares backed off from the fight with Percy because he realized Percy had the potential to be a powerful demigod and did not want to harm him unnecessarily. Additionally, Ares had no interest in a prolonged fight if Percy was not willing to give up the bolt, as his main goal was to retrieve the stolen item.
In The Lightning Thief, Percy is being communicated with in his dreams by his father, Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea. Poseidon uses Percy's dreams to provide guidance and messages to help him on his journey.
