I didn't think that this was the time to joke around.
The Booger-Squid was staring at me with eyes like Annabeth's when she got mad. Which is to say extremely scary.
Tentacles were sprouting up all over the deck like claws in one of those grabber machines. If only I could have made one before I was killed by slime.
No, Leo. I chided. You're not going to die.
Calypso needs you.
I ran forward, not really sure of what I wanted to do. My adrenaline had possessed me and when it wore off, it was too late.
A tentacle grabbed me by the waist and lifted me upside down in the air like a doll. I saw my fellow slime-induced friends on the deck like miniature action figures and just had enough time to see Frank being lifted as well before being thrown into the water.
I didn't have enough time to breathe while I was above sea level and I was losing oxygen fast. The whole entire time I kept thinking what a stupid way to die.
I saw a hint of a flipper before everything went black.
