He lands on the back of the monster's neck, holding onto his horns.
The monster charges at Percy, and Percy jumps straight up using the monster's forehead as a springboard. Blinded by anger and sadness at having watched his mother disintegrate, Percy waves his red raincoat at the monster and gets his attention. The monster next makes a bee-line for Grover, who is still lying on the ground. Suddenly Sally turns into a glow of light and is gone. Sally inches her way downhill, and the monster grabs her by the neck. Now the monster focuses on Sally, who has just laid Grover's body down on the ground by the pine tree. The monster is furious that he missed his target. Percy does so, but when he realizes that the monster is charging at him, he follows his mom's advice and jumps to the side just before the monster gores him with his horns. The monster gets closer and closer, and Sally tells Percy to go on without them, to run as fast as he can. This monster is bad at changing directions. Sally tells Percy that if the monster charges at him to jump out of the way at the very last minute. The monster destroys Gabe's car completely, causing the gas tank to explode. He can't hear or see very well, but he can smell them. The monster we learn is "Pasiphae's son," whatever that means. But Percy still refuses to leave without Sally and Grover, so Sally helps him pick Grover's limp body up and carry him up the hill towards the pine tree. Percy refuses to leave his mom behind, but she tells him that the thing that's chasing them wants Percy only. Sally tells Percy to get out of the car and run as fast as he can past the tall pine tree on the crest of the hill near them. The car has been struck by a lightning bolt and lies on its side in a ditch. Grover is knocked unconscious as a result. Gabe's camaro seems to explode, and Percy's head is thrown into the back of the driver's seat. 
The "Lord of the Dead and a few of his blood-thirstiest minions" are chasing Percy (4.27). Sally tells Percy that there's no time to explain. Percy really wants to know what's going on now and wants to know who he is exactly. You started to realize who you are." (4.22) We hoped you'd think the Kindly One was a hallucination. "The less you knew, the fewer monsters you'd attract," Grover said, like that should be perfectly obvious. Percy is confused about why no one ever told him this before. 
Dobbs wasn't just a myth, that the three old ladies at the fruit stand weren't just a myth.
Percy is confused – aren't satyrs those things in the myths they studied in Mr. 
Percy asks Grover if he is a donkey, and Grover tells him he's, ahem, a goat. Grover says he'd never met his mom, but that she knew he was watching over Percy. Percy asks Grover how he knows his mom. Sally drives fast down dark country roads.
