14 COMMENTS GUYS? REALLY???

THANKS SOOOOOO MUCH!!! 

ASK AND YOU SHAL RECIEVE GUYS, LEO IT IS!

Leo

For some strange reason, Leo named the turtle.

Call him an idiot, but he named it Archie.

He skin was a light green and the shell was cracked in a few areas, as if he had been attacked before.

Archie flipped his arms and put a good sized hole in the deckboard.

Frank let loose an arrow that hit Archie in the eye. The turtle rolled around and smashed one flipper into Piper. She crumpled and slid towards the side of the ship.

Archie was leaning his top half on the deck, making it slint, which is why PIper was half in the water already.

Jason yelled and lightning struck the turtle, but Archie didn't seem fazed.

The rain slwoly ceased and Leo wasn't sure what to do.

The deck was totally slippery with rain, seawater and the slint of it. He could barely walk, let alone fight the turtle.

Leo summoned fire in one hand, making Frank seem angry. "Jason, fly up and attack Archie from-"

"Archie?!" Jason yelled, his eyes on Piper, who was know awake but unable to get back to the others, trapped by the turtle's flippers in the way.

"The turtle! His name is Archie." Leo said, blushing.

Frank stared at Leo. "You named the thing trying to kill us?"

"You got a problem?" Leo asked bravely.

"Yeah! My problem with's you, Gnome!"

"Gnome?!"

"Yeah, a short person with elf ears, like you! Once you name something you can't let it go!" Frank yelled.

"Which is the only reason your mom kept you!"

"Guys!" Jason yelled. "We have other problems right now!"

Leo glared at Frank but turned his attention back to the turtle.

Piper was now scrambling up the deck boards, taking a while since she had to duck and cover her head every time the flipper came near.

Leor an towards her and yanked her back to the others, both of them breathing hard.

"Thanks, Valdez." Piper panted.

Leo nodded right when the flipper slammed down next to him, making him jump.

Piper stabbed her dagger into Archie's touch skin, and Leo had to admit it was pretty brave being that close to the turtle.

"Aspidochelone!" She yelled as she pulled her dagger out and ran to join the others.

"Why do you always seem to know the weirdest names of monsters??" Leo demanded.

Piper shot a glare at him, one worthy of Hades. 

"Aspidochelone-a giant turtle or whale that appears to be an island in order to lure sailors to their doom." She seemed to recite out of a book.

Frank looked confused. "That thing looks nothing like an island!" He loaded an arrow and shot Archie- Aspidochelone, in the side.

"I don''t have all the answers!" PIper replied ov er the roar of the giant turtle on deck. "I might be good with mythology but I'm not an Athena kid!"

Jason held his sword lightly, readu to charge at any moment. "So I fly up, and kill the thing?"

Piper nodded. "Easiest way. But be careful."

"Of course."

"Don't black out again." Leo offered as advice.

Jason gave him an I-am-not-amused face, and summoned the winds to carry him up. He flew around Archie's head, looking for a landing spot.

Piper gripped the hilt of her dagger tightly, chewing her lip as she watched Jason.

"He'll be fine." Frank comforted.

Piper nodded but didn't look convinced.

Archie's flipped flew over their heads and smashed into a pile of bricks Leo had been using to repair the ship. The bricks flew everywhere, one hitting Piper in the back of the knee; making her collapse. One was heading right for Frank's chest, but he dodged, and the brick caught Leo in the side of the head.

He crumbled and his vision got very fuzzy. He was aware of a guilty looking Frank kneeling beside him, and a injured PIper shaking him, yelling for him to stay awake.

Leo couldn't see much, but he could see a brick fly over to Jason. He caught it in his hand, grinning, probably thinking that this was revenge for the brick that hit him at the Roman camp. He slammed the brick, which was cut and jagged on one side, into Aspidochelone (Leo was still leaning to Archie as a name) head.

The effect was immedent. Archie's eyes rolled back in his head and he lost control of his motions. He collapsed and slipped back into the ocean, leaving the demigods with a broken and probably sinking ship.

"Yay, we win." Leo croaked. Then he blacked out.

Yes! 

I'm finsihed!

I know it took a long time, but I have an excuse!!

I.

Was. 

........

Lazy.

Great excuse, right?

Anyway, first comment gets the next chapter dedicated to them

BTW- Next chapter is Percy!!!

And, I need advice!

Who do you want injured ?

It has to be one of the demis on the ship, and you need to say why they should get injured.

It could be any reason! Example-

"I think Frank should get injured during a monster attack because he is thinking about Hazel and get's distracted. Also, he hasn't been injured much yet."

Iz that easy people, I have writer's block and need help!!
