Chapter 11: Piper

I tucked in my body as I fell, making a ball. It felt like an eternity, falling, waiting just to be eaten up. Wind rushed in my face, my hair billowing behind me. I opened my eyes after what seemed like forever, and saw I was heading toward water. I glanced to my right and saw that Percy had charged the monster, kicking it away, so I would not die today. Too late I realized that traveling towards the water at this speed, I would flatten like a pancake. I tried to tuck and roll, but it wouldn't stop the impact. I braced… and felt the soft, welcoming cushion of water? I opened my eyes. I was alive. How? I moved my hand in front of my face. Yep, that was me. I realized that I needed to breathe.

I surfaced, breathing in the fresh air. I looked around me. Unfortunately, the battle was still raging. Noah was back on his feet, fighting next to Percy. He rolled left and swung at the monster's neck. It clanged off sunk about halfway in and then lodged in the monster's neck. The serpent roared. I turned my back on the fighting and swam towards the ship. Annabeth was leaning over the railing, holding out her hand. I took it. They pulled me onto the deck. Leo was hustling to crates, muttering

"No, no, damn, where is it?"

"What do you need Leo?" I asked.

"The Greek Fire, help me look for it. We're gonna lob it down it's throat, hopefully it will crumble that way, maybe not." As soon as he finished his sentence, I heard another cry of pain. I saw Percy fly as he got thrown into the river, but he rebounded just as quick. I ran to each crate, unfortunately, they lined almost every wall of the ship with supplies. I had no time to think. I bustled, opening and closing every crate. "AHA," Leo yelled. "Got it!" He ran to the deck.

"Leo, be careful with that." Of course, he didn't listen. "Percy, catch." Percy glanced back, dropped his sword, and caught it. Not one second too soon. One head just hit Noah away, and he sailed into the deck with a loud Crunch. Both of the heads turned towards Percy, caught up in his tiny hurricane. Just as the monster head snapped at him, he leaped and chucked the vial into the creature's mouth.

The serpent froze, just mere inches from Percy's face. He writhed and choked. Than he sunk under water. We watched attentively. For a minute, everything was still. Then we saw, far below, a burst of green light, then a shockwave explosion. Percy turned back and leaped onto the deck. Immediately, he slumped forward, probably from exhaustion. Everyone rushed around, Leo, keeping the ship afloat, and others nursing people back to consciousness. I myself was tired, so I decided to take a quick nap. I didn't feel the ground when I slumped backwards and hit the deck, quite literally.
