Hey, everybody! This is about the fastest I've updated in quite some time, so I hope you guys appreciate it!

This chapter and next chapter are going to be action, so I hope you're ready! Also, I want to point out that I don't have an actualy "perspective wheel" like I did with my MoA, I'm just going to pick a person that best goes with the current scenerio.

Enjoy!

Chapter 5

Jason

Jason didn't know what was scarier; the fact that a pack of flying pigs that breathed fire and had orange hair on their heads, or the fact that the Argo II was having trouble staying in the air.

They had split up into two groups. The first group started swooping down, trying to kick the crew in the heads, while the other group flew under the ship and rocked it, trying to throw it off course and drop us out of the sky.

"We were too late!" Hazel shouted. "We're in Greek territory!"

"Since when were flying boars with orange hair Greek creatures?!" Frank shouted.

Jason had to agree. He was confused and afraid, but he couldn't understand how to keep the ship in the air. Leo was out cold still, and he was really the only one who knew how to keep the ship up.

"What are we going to do?" Piper asked.

"Keep them, Piper! I have an idea!" Jason said, an idea coming to him as he started acting it.

"You don't want to hurt us," Piper called out to the pigs. "We're your friends!"

One of the pigs came from behind and tried to hit her, but Frank shot it out of the sky and it died on the deck.

Jason flew up and conjured some lightning. He shot at the pigs under the boat and they squealed or wailed and fell out of the sky, plummeting to the earth far below them.

These things were not going to stop them from getting to Camp.

He looked up and saw Frank, mouthing at him and waving his arms. Jason flew in and asked, "What?"

"These things are alive! Look, I shot one and it didn't turn to dust!" Frank said frantically. "What do we do?"

"We kill them…and then we keep them, I guess. We might end up eating them, who knows. We should see what Leo thinks when he wakes up," Jason sighed.

"But…they're alive." Piper whispered. "Someone did this to them. Jason, what's happening?"

"I don't know. All we can do is figure this out after we save our skin. Frank, put that someplace safe. We'll take a live one, too, just for judgment." Jason ordered and Frank dragged the dead pig away.

Jason was about to fly off again when all of a sudden the ship lurched to the left.

He stumbled and fell, and then shot himself toward the rail by mistake.

Suddenly, there were hands on his shoulders that pulled him away from the rail again.

"Thanks," Jason whispered.

"No problem," Piper replied. "Now, get back up there and fight!"

Piper continued to try to charmspeak the pigs, while Jason shot back up into the air and shot lightning at the pigs underneath.

Suddenly, Jason was rammed in the back and he went soaring through the sky across the boat.

Piper shouted, "Jason, duck!" just in time for Jason to crash into another pig that kicked him down toward the ship's deck with such force that slammed into the deck with his shoulder.

He gasped out in pain and grimaced as he sat up.

Piper knelt beside him and said, "What can I do?"

"Ambrosia. Then, start fighting." was all he said.

Piper nodded and ran off the deck to find the necessary material.

Jason looked around and saw Frank shoot at the pigs from far away, and Hazel fighting off all the pigs that got past his arrows.

Jason shot at the pigs on the other side of the ship with lightning, using his good arm.

He looked around, and then he saw the pig that hit him in the back. He knew because it was flapping around in circles, and his mouth was opening and closing quietly as if it was laughing.

"The circling one," Jason shouted to Frank.

Frank looked back at him, confused.

"That's the one we take alive."

Piper ran up at just that moment and fed him some ambrosia. He was able to feel his arm beginning to heal.

"I have an idea!" Hazel shouted. "Piper, come take my spot!" and Hazel dashed off toward the control panel.

"You okay on your own?" Piper asked.

Jason nodded.

She smiled.

He smiled.

Then she ran off to help Frank.

Jason looked around some more and realized something very important.

Where's Leo?

DUN DUN DUUHH! Leo's missing! I can't believe it! How could this happen?

Oh yeah. I know. }:)

**HOLD-UP MOMENT**

Kimmie: Okay, so I'd like to comment on your current performances.

Jason: Hey, when can my arm be healed?

Kimmie: LATER. Now, Frank, you're doing well. Leo, your unconscious performance was fantastic.

Leo: Thank you, very much.

Kimmie: Piper, look. You need to be more...how can I say this...

Piper: I'm waiting.

Kimmie: Less dipsy and more warrior.

Piper: Excuse me?

Kimmie: You're waiting on Jason to tell you what to do, and you're always getting over emotional about him.

Piper: So what do you suggest I do?

Kimmie: Just become your own person! Be strong and be fierce, but don't be overpowering.

Piper: So, be strong...okay, I understand that.

Kimmie: (beaming) Great! So, no killing me this time?

Piper: Nah, we're good.

Kimmie: Annabeth, I want you to know exactly what you guys are up against so I can help you with your reaction.

Annabeth: Alright. Talk to me.

Kimmie: Well...

**KIMMIE TALKS TO ANNABETH (I wouldn't spoil it for you guys!)**

Annabeth: Okay, I think I got it. Thanks for the tips, Kimmie! (Leaves)

Percy: What about me?

Kimmie: I never have your POV, and you're doing a great job. So, I don't really need to talk to you.

Percy: Well, can I know what you told Annabeth?

Kimmie: I want you to be surprised. (winks)

Percy: Alright. Fine.

**END OF HOLD-UP**
