AN: I'm now accepting beta requests. I decided that there aren't enough of them out there and Izzybella12 and some others have praised my story quite a bit, so I have decided to do that. Still, as always, I would love it if you could help beta my stories, as I still think I have much room for improvement.

In other news, I've recently been seeing many stories that have a good beginning, but either stray too far from what fits with PJO, or are on hiatus. Please, if you are one of these writers, just… Don't stop writing. Continue. People want to read. Due to that, I will now be suggesting a good read to you guys who managed to make it here. Thanks for the support (::) (::) (;;) (';) Cookies! (Yes, this is the longest author's note I've ever written)

The suggested reading material for this time is: Time Locked: Pressed, by VCRx.

Chapter 11

Percy POV

We went back on deck. Clarisse had ran off to gods know where on the ship. Probably thinks she went too far. Good thing, because she did. No one, and I mean NO ONE, talks about Annabeth like that. Serves her right. Teach her a lesson.

"Percy, we need you to help get us through to the other side." Cheryl called out to me from the other side. "Coming!" I ran over there, and said, "Cheryl, if at any time I seem to be going into the whirlpool, help me to get the boat out. Charybdis is a strong monster, and I'll need all the help I can get. A shame Sam isn't here, but I guess we'll have to deal with it."

I prayed to all the gods. Right now, we were in a very dangerous situation. One small step too far on either side, and we would either die, or I would get too exhausted to pilot the boat afterwards. I willed the water to push the Orion III (In case you haven't realized, that's the name of the boat) through the narrow slit of water that would allow us to stay out of Scylla's reach, while being able to get out of the whirlpool. "Come on… Don't fail me now. Don't fail me now." I muttered to myself. The Orion III started to rock like a child on a swing, tossing and turning and nearly flipping over twice. I looked over the rail. "Cheryl! Now would be a good time!" We were slowly but surely slipping in towards the gaping cavern of Charybdis' mouth. "I'm trying! This is too strong!" What would Annabeth do? I thought. "Jeremy! Get me a rope!" I had a crazy idea. One that would most likely end up with my death or all our deaths. "Jenny, anyone taught you how to do the spell that lets you go up in the air?" (In case you couldn't tell, she's a daughter of Hecate) "Yeah! Why?" This was going as well as I could get for now. Jeremy got me the rope. I tied myself to the rope, and tied one end of the rope to the boat. "Jenny, on my count, use the incantation and send me towards… that side! 3. 2. 1. Do it. Now!" "Incantare: Mitte Volans!" She seemed hesitant. I wonder why… I blasted off towards the center of the Triangle, with the ship towed behind me. I kept on going, hoping that I would be able to pull the ship out of the whirlpool. I heard a loud jerk. I was getting pulled back. "INCANTARE: AUFERO SARCINA!" I stopped flying off to the distance. I started falling. Oh gods… Let's hope the water is deep enough. I hit the surface and blacked out.

Jeremy POV

We sped out of the whirlpool. "Okay, Jenny, now would be a good time to bring him back." "Erm… One problem… I forgot how to remove incantations." "What? You didn't think that you should've told us that?" "He didn't give me the chance." I sighed. "Okay then… Kennedy, get Clarisse. We need to get Percy to stop. Jenny, IM Lou Ellen. Ask her. Cheryl, get the water for Jenny's IM." People rushed into position. Kennedy, Clarisse and I went over to the rope. "On one, pull. On two, get ready for the next bout. One! Two! One! Two!" We pulled the rope closer and closer to the boat. I shouldn't have brought such a long rope… "INCANTARE: AUFERO SARCINA!" After a while, we heard a loud shout from behind us. Jenny got it. The rope fell towards the surface. "Okay, Jenny, help us reel him in." We pulled him back onto the ship. He was out cold. "Thanks, Percy." I murmured. He just saved our lives.

AN: They're in the Bermuda Triangle now! YAY! Now you can wait for the next chapter!
