                                 Piper's pov

                                They'd only travelled a few hundred yards when Piper heard voices.

                               Piper plodded along, trying to think of a plan. If they were to tired to fight and a monster attacked would her charmspeak still work even though she was exhausted?If it didn't they would need a distraction a good one.  

                                  But it was hard to think of a distraction with her stomach growling. The fire water of the Phlegethon may have helped heal her and give her strength, but it didn't do anything for hunger of thirst. The river wasn't about making you feel good. Piper guessed.It just kept you going so you could experience more pain.

                                Her head started to droop with exhaustion. Then she heard them---female voices having some sort of argument---and she was instantly alert.  

                                  She whispered. "Jason, down!"

                                      She pulled him behind the nearest boulder, wedging herself so close against the river bay that her shoes almost touched the river's fire.
