Sierra's P.O.V.

We ran through the trees and I whistled. Blackjack appeared in front of me. "Blackjack, I need your help!" I said. 'Why would I help you?' he asked. "Percy is in trouble!"

'O then get on!' I swung on. Soon we were up in the air in a matter of minutes. I was really nervous and terrified, but Percy was more important.

We were catching up to the flying pig. "Percy!" I shouted. He was dangling on a rope hooked around the pig. He turned. "Sierra? What the heck?" I rolled my eyes.

"Jump! Blackjack will catch you..... Probably!" I shout. "Wow! That's very reassuring! I have an idea!" he shouted back. "O, I hate your ideas!" He threw a piece of rope around a statue on top of a building.

Unfortunately, the pig was so strong, it ripped the statue off the building and sent Percy free falling to his death. "Blackjack!" I shouted. 'On it!' We plummeted down. Percy landed right in fron of me.

"You okay?" I asked. "Yeah, I'm fine," he said turning toward me. "Good." I slapped him. "What was that for?" he asked. "You idiot! Why'd you latch onto a pig!?!?" I asked. For the second time since I got here, I made him turn red.

"Follow that pig!" Percy said to Blackjack. 'You got it, Boss!' he whinnied. We flew a few blocks and when we found the pig, we stayed a safe distance away.

"Get in closer!" Percy shouted. "Are you crazy?!?!" I shouted. "In hearing distance at least!" I sighed. 'On it!' We flew a little bit closer. We got in closer.

"Hello Hermes! Command sequence: Daedalus Twenty-three. Kill Flying Pigs! Begin Activation!" he shouted. "What the heck are you saying?!?!" I said. The statue started to move its legs, then looked confused. It smashed into a building and got really mad. It began to climb up the the rope.

"Faster!" Percy said to Blackjack. 'Um, Boss-'

"Trust me! I can do this....Probably!" he said, mocking me. "Sure, mock me! That's so smart!" I shouted. He laughed. Blackjack swooped in close.

'You smell like ham!' Blackjack said and kicked the pig in the nose. We dove down, the pig hot on our tail, literally.

Percy said the same thing to two lions that he said to the now extremely beaten up statue. They stared at him in unbelief. Then the pig landed right next to us.

The lions attacked the pig with the statue. I kinda felt bad for the pig, the way the things were attacking it. I even had to turn my head away, it was so awful. It disintegrated, and the statues ran away, probably trying to find more flying pigs.

"Well, everyone who ever said when pigs fly, they better repay there debts,"I said. He laughed. "How'd you get Blackjack to let you ride him?" he asked. "He'll do anything for you," I answered.

'Death girl's right,' he whinnied. "Hey! Who calling Death girl, Horse breath!" I said.'Who you-' "Stop fighting, you two," he said. "Well, I can cross that off my list," I said. "What?"

"I can cross fighting with a horse off my list of things I never thought I'd do," I answered. Percy rolled his eyes and smiled. 'Can we take a donut break?' Blackjack asked. "I wish, big guy, but the fights still going on."

I could tell both of us could hear the explosions in the distance. "We have to help," I said.
