It looked like they were winning the fight until Kaytrin got bitten.

Two of It came in from either side and she could only defend herself from one at a time.

It opened It's ugly mouth, and she swung her shield around to whack It's snout, but it managed a quick bite on her bicep before it got disintegrated.

She screamed in agony and anger that she wasn't able to kill it faster. She could feel her arm going numb, and her fingers slowly curling away from her spear.

Her spear clattered loudly on the sidewalk when she dropped it, making London and Sam turn to look at her as they finished off of the last of the monsters.

She started to sway slightly, and they both rushed over to her.

"Kaytrin! What happened? Oh...." London said when her saw her bite mark. "Oh, man. This is bad. Sam, do you have the ambrosia squares Chiron gave us?"

"Yes," Sam said, and slung off her backpack. "Kaytrin, sit down. London, make a tourniquet and tie it above the bite. Here," Sam said to Kaytrin, her voice soft. "Eat this. It should help you."

"It's bite isn't venomous, but the bite hurts and numbs the area. It stops the blood flow around it. Kaytrin, this isn't good," London said. He took a deep breath, and Kaytrin realized just how scared London was for her.

"I'll be fine," Kaytrin said faintly. She cleared her throat. "I will be fine. We need to find the Cornucopia," she said, but stronger this time.

"Right. I think I know where it is. Nemesis used to hang out around here a lot."

"Really? I wonder why," Sam said.
