Rick Riordan Quote
Argh! Thalia pushed me, and a shock went through my body that blew me backward ten feet into the water. Some of the campers gasped. A couple of the Hunters stifled laughs.Sorry! Thalia said, turning pale. I didn't mean to—Anger roared in my ears. A wave erupted from the creek, blasting into Thalia's face and dousing her from head to toe.I stood up. Yeah, I growled. I didn't mean to, either.Thalia was breathing heavily.Enough! Chiron ordered.But Thalia held out her spear. You want some, Seaweed Brain?Somehow, it was okay when Annabeth called me that — at least, I'd gotten used to it — but hearing it from Thalia was not cool.Bring it on, Pinecone Face!
