Description "The Greek fire was shooting sparks. I shoved the tip of my sword under the leather pouch and flipped it like a spatula. The firebomb dislodged and flew into the Hephaestus chariot at the driver's feet. He yelped. In a split second the driver made the right choice: he dove out of the chariot, which careened away and exploded in green flames. The metal horses seemed to short-circuit. They turned and dragged the burning wreckage back toward Clarisse and the Stoll brothers, who had to swerve to avoid it. Annabeth pulled the reins for the last turn. I held on, sure we would capsize, but somehow she brought us through and spurred the horses across the finish line. The crowd roared."

Sea of Monsters, Rick Riordan

man! this one was challenging and i almost gave up on it a few times...but here it is! My favorite scene from Sea of Monsters. Actually this is only one of them. There were soooo many to choose from like the whole CSS Birmingham explosion, Circe's island, the siren thing, and the party pony invasion...but I went with the chariot race at the end. I remember rooting so hard for them to win especially after Clarisse got credit for the quest. The race went on like a movie in my head. I guess that's why its one of my favorites.

I think I'l save the party pony invasion scene for another day...

This fills me with glee. (But without the annoying retreads of popular songs. Just regular glee.)
