A/N: Hey guys, so this is a story me and my best friend are co-authoring. We were sitting in class thinking of which god/goddess we would have been. She thought I was Artemis because I'm good at archery and boys are annoying. There was no goddess suitable for her so I thought she would be a daughter of Chaos. That got our minds thinking and thus, leading to this, Hope you enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters Rick Riordan created; only the ones that are of my creation.
Artemis PoV
Why do things be so boring? I could have been with my real family. I wonder what they would be doing now. It's been so long…
My thoughts trailed on as I pushed my 'fathers' words out of my mind. I was sitting in a council meeting regarding something I was paying no attention to.
Athena was just about to speak when a sudden purple flash appeared in the centre of the throne room. There was a girl with shining black hair that came to her shoulders, violently purple eyes and ivory skin. Her lips were a strawberry red and a smile was plastered to her face.
I gasped. My heart started to race.
It couldn't be her…could it?
She eyes all of the Olympians and stopped at me. I could never forget those eyes. The eyes only my sister had inherited from our father. All of her other features were from our mother Cosmos, but she faded long ago.
A grin crossed my face and my sister beamed at me. All of the other Olympians stared at me in confusion. An understanding passed through us.
"Hey Olympians, I am Iona, twin sister of Artemis. We are the daughters of Chaos and Cosmos. I'm here to take her back to her home. Her original home."
I missed the sound of her voice. It was like bells chiming in the summer breeze. Another thing she gained from our mother.
"WHAT! Artemis is my daughter, isn't she?" Zeus bellowed. I almost laughed at his face.
Suddenly Apollo came to my mind. I looked at him sitting on his throne with a confused look on his face. He looked up to me and I swear his eyes seemed a little misty. I felt a pang of guilt run through me. I have never seen Apollo cry. Ever.
I walked up to him as the rest of the council were yelling at my sister Iona. Apollo's eyes were locked onto mine. Gold on silver. (A/N: I know he has blue eyes but I want him to have gold like the sun.)
He was about to speak but I interrupted him.
"Look, I know you're confused. Just let me explain." I begged of him. He nodded his head and allowed me to continue.
"So, I was born before the Olympians and before the Titans. I was the daughter of Chaos and Cosmos. That crazy girl over there thats arguing with Zeus and everyone else is my real twin sister.
"I was sent here to Earth when my mother Cosmos was killed in a war. A war that was started because of me. You see, my home planet, Chaotica was a very peaceful place. It was a place where everyone was welcome. We had no enemies, but one day that all fell apart. It was at a council meeting with the leaders of all the planets. My father, Chaos got into a fight with a planet named Faub.
"My father promised me that I would be able to marry whomever I wanted, but planet Faub, or as we call it back home; Retard Planet, wanted their snobby, disloyal and snooty prince to marry me. Well, you can imagine how mad Chaos got.
"The prince was also present at the meeting along with me and Iona. His name was Andreas. He kept on trying to flirt with me but it never worked. My father noticed my annoyance with him and would never accept an arranged marriage for me. When the king of Retard Planet heard my father's words he declared war.
"It lasted for many millennia. When it occurred the gods just started their reign. My father told my sister and me of our mother's death the day before. He told me I had to leave, and that I would come back when it was safe. I miss my old home."
I waited for Apollo's answer. He was digesting everything in. I sneaked a glance at my sister, Iona and watched how she handled things. She was arguing with Zeus like no tomorrow. There was lightning flashing in the sky and she had out her diamond dagger that was infused with chaotic poison.
I smiled to myself. She may seem like an angel but when annoyed she was like the devil.
I turned back to Apollo. He spoke some words that made his voice crack.
"All this time…You were p-pretending to be my sister? All the arguments, fights, and laughs were all fake?" His voice went from sadness to anger. It made my heart throb.
"No! I actually considered you as my brother. You may have annoyed me but I swear! The only reason I didn't jump to leave the second Iona appeared was because of you! I actually wanted you to be my brother. I wish you could come with me but it is forbidden. I am so sorry brother."
A tear fell out of my eye. I never cry. I guess new beginnings cause new feelings.
My brother stood up and gave me a tight hug. I returned it with as much force. More tears fell from my eyes when I looked at him. He flashed me a sad smile.
"Promise me you will visit one day. But what will you do about your hunters?" Curiosity was in his voice.
"Easy, I make my lieutenant a minor goddess. She will be goddess of the hunt. I will have Hestia replace my spot on the council but I would still like to have my throne for any times I may come. Like an honorary thing."
I gave Apollo one last hug and a smile before I walked to my sister. She gave me a grateful smile and I returned it. Zeus noticed me and started to bomb me with questions. I calmly replied.
"I understand your confusion but as you guys were arguing I told my story to Apollo. I allow him to tell my story and what to do with my throne and my hunters. Now, I will try to visit at least once every few years. Good bye, family."
Everybody was too shocked at my calmness to do anything about stopping me. I faced Iona and asked her if we were going to the same place. She nodded and I grinned.
My sister and I stood beside each other. I thought of my home planet and visualized the palace. Suddenly a flash of silver and purple obscured my vision. I felt a very old feeling in the pit of my stomach.
I'm actually going home was my last thought before a sudden flash of light and sudden darkness filled me.
A/N: So that was chapter one done by me (Resatice). The next chapter will be done by PurpleGodess in Iona's point of view.
This was roughly 1,200 words, not my longest chapter but will have to do for now. Hope you liked it!
