I can't believe while Me, Percy, And Jessamine where headed off to risk our lives and visit some stupid Ferris Wheel, while Annabeth and that little troll, Wendy where off to the fashion capital off the world. How was that right at all? But then again I only have myself to blame. We had left the house hours ago and where now walking near this huge clock, people seemed to be gawking at. Percy And Jessie seemed to be in awe of it. Whats the big deal it was just a huge clock?

They called it big Ben or something, i wasn't paying attention to the tour guild. But why would you name a clock? The British may have had sexy accents but they weren't exactly the brightest, just call the clock the big clock.

Anyway we had finally arrived at our destination, A big a*s Ferris Wheel at a dock.

"What now?" I ask using my best board voice. No way i was having them think i was interested in this place, no matter how cool the Ferris Wheel looked.

They both shrugged "We might as well get on the eye and see if anything happens" Jessie says 

I hate to admit it but i was actually excited for it, until we boarded and i realized i was afraid of heights. Instead of carts like a normal Ferris Wheel this one had Oval Capsules. Giving us a full view of around us. At first Percy was a bit nervous since the sky was Zeus's territory but quickly got over it unlike me.

We probably rode the thing 7 times before i'd had enough and puked on the floor of the capsule. Jessamine groaned as some of it got on her shoes. After we got off with a very upset Jessie "These where new too!"she kept mumbling

"Maybe Annabeth can bring you a new pair during  her little rondevu in Paris." I snap

Jessie just glared at me and marched on ahead, she probably would've marched right off the dock if a giant serpent didn't rise from the ocean.

At first the mortals seemed confused, then there was chaos some people where walking towards the thing in awe while others where running away screaming "Killer whale"

Percy and Jessie like the soldiers they have always trained to be jumped into battle mode and charged.

I just stood there petrified, I've never actually seen a monster before, and never hoped to. I know I was supposed to be a child of Ares and do all this fighting crap but i just wasn't built for it.

The thing went underwater and slammed it's tail at the dock knocking me and a few others into the water. I just screamed, while others attempting to get back to safety by swimming towards the shore. But was nearly impossible with the waves rolling off the monster as it thrashed.

A  little boy probably the age of 4 was screaming and crying for his mother, as he held onto a piece of wood broken off by the dock. I just watched in horror as another wave smashed into him and took the child under,nothing but a few bubbles rose to the surface. Before i knew it a wave slammed into me. The child that was screaming for his mother only a couple seconds ago, was floating in the water being thrown around by the current. I probably would've thrown up if i had anything left in me. The water finally thrashed the boy towards me and i gripped and rose to the top using it as a floaty. I felt bad but sometimes you have to do what you have to do to survive. I finally rose to the top, and saw the seen above, Jessie was on the serpents back stabbing at it, while Percy was trying to get people out of the water while using the waves, his natural element to hit the thing. 

"Percy" I scream attempting to get his attention as his girlfriend, his first priority should be getting me to safety , not some random mortals he knew nothing about. When he finally noticed me his head turned in my direction, but just as it did the serpent slammed its tail into him sending him tumbling, knocking a hole into the dock. Breaking a part of the dock and sending it spiraling towards me, when it slammed into me  I instantly blacked out into nothingness.

 I completely apologize if I've been writing Paige to many Paige point of views, she just so much fun to write as. Anyway up next is Annabeth, Oh and the whole British not being the brightest thing doesn't reflect upon my thoughts about the British i actually quite enjoy their company
