Bloodthirsty Titans were one thing, but what about bloodthirsty giants?
Thea had gotten away with her life the first time, but with the giants? She wasn't quite sure if she'd make it out alive this time.

This is so chaotic, I'm sorry

Drew, however short their life as a demigod on the run had been, mastered the Argo II machinery at once. With some insight from Annabeth, the oars extended with a sound like machine-gun fire, and the Argo II turned from the dock, heading for the island in the distance.
The three eagles still circled overhead, but they made no attempt to land on the ship, possibly because Festus the figurehead blew fire whenever they got close. More eagles were flying in formation toward Fort Sumter—at least a dozen. If each of them carried a Roman demigod...that was a lot of enemies, more than Jack and Ina were wishing for.
Coach Hedge came pounding up the stairs with Hazel at his hooves. "Where are they?" he demanded. "Who do I kill?"
"No killing!" Annabeth ordered. "Just defend the ship!"
"But they interrupted a Chuck Norris movie!"
"That's fair." Ina, whom only Thea could see, was climbing on the side of the ship, throwing... skittles(?) at the eagles, no damage done due to her... status. She nodded along with Hedge's accusations.
Piper emerged from below, almost running through Jack, who quickly moved out of the way. "Got a message through to Jason. Kind of fuzzy, but he's already on his way. He should be—oh! There!"
Soaring over the city, heading in their direction, was a giant bald eagle, unlike the golden Roman birds.
"Romans?" The son of Iris asked, attention still set on his twin sister's skittle war.
"Eh," Thea said, immediately followed by Hazel's cry of: "Frank!"
Leo was holding on to the eagle's feet, and even from the ship, Thea could hear him screaming and cursing. Behind them flew Jason, riding the wind.
"Ew, it's the blonde one!" Drew yelled from the helm. Piper and Annabeth shared a look of disbelief, but didn't comment on the demigod-ghost's presence.
"Never seen Jason fly before," Percy grumbled. "He does look like a blond Superman."
"I know, right?" Thea said, eyes fixed on the three in case all went wrong.
"This isn't the time!" Piper scolded them. "Look, they're in trouble!"
Oh, so it was going wrong.
Sure enough, the Roman flying chariot had descended from a cloud and was diving straight toward them. Jason and Frank veered out of the way, pulling up to avoid getting trampled by the pegasi.
The charioteers fired their bows. Arrows whistled under Leo's feet, which led to more screaming and cursing. Jason and Frank were forced to overshoot the Argo II and fly toward Fort Sumter.
