Chapter One: Prologue

Boy meets River

Hello! New Story, bet you wished I would just stick to one story, but I can't! Too many ideas flowing in my noggin! Can't contain the power of Creativity! Anyways I don't own POJ, they guy who made it does. Also that Bleach belongs to whoever made the show.

It was night when a nymph with long black hair and dark black eyes decided to visit the mortal world, this nymph was the River Styx's nymph, or just Styx. She hasn't ever come up from the Underworld, but something made her go out, boredom? The sense of something big happening, none knows but the fates. She walked until she heard a terrified scream, curiosity getting to her, she went and checked the source and found a small boy with white hair, almost a silvery tint to it and dark blue eyes. He was small than normal. He was with a man, a dead man. In front of the boy was a monster known as the Nemean Lion staring at him with hunger in its eyes.

'So, Artemis has seemingly broken her oath, but should I kill the kid?' Styx thought as she watched the Lion close in on the child, she was expecting Artemis not come and save him, but when nothing happened, Styx made her choice. With a wave of her hand a blast of water shot out and hit the Nemean Lion and instantly killed it. She looked to the boy who stared at her in fear.

"Worry not child, I have come to help you. Here drink this, it'll give you the power to defend yourself and your loved ones, but be warned. Its power is used based on your emotions; feel the need to protect and power to create a ball of energy that could be used to hurt or heal.. However if anger is felt, a monster will come out, a monster that'll give Typhon a run for his money. It'll always try to gain control, until your anger is gone." Styx told the boy as he nodded and drank the stuff from Styx.

"Thank you miss and will I ever see you again?" The boy asked as Styx nodded

"Yes child you now belong to me. Unlike you pathetic mother I will care for you like a sister would." Styx told him as he nodded.

"Ok big sis, my name is Robert; my daddy said it was his brother's name before he died." Robert said as Styx smiled and ruffled his hair.

"Now follow me, I got something to do." Styx announced as Robert looked back at who she assumed was his father.

"But what about daddy, we can't leave him." Robert said as Styx sighed and knelt to his eye level.

"I'm sorry, but your dad is no more, but he's in a better place, this I promise." Styx told him as she stood and stuck out her hand and Robert grabbed it and the two were off.

Else where

Artemis and her hunters were celebrating a good job on the hunt when she felt it. A extremely strong energy was approaching.

"Girls, go to you tents." Artemis commanded as the hunters looked at her in confusion but listened. After a few moments of waiting a being she feared to appear did.

"L-Lady Styx . . . what brings you here?" Artemis asked as Styx stared at her with anger.

"What am I doing here? Well maybe it has to do with him." Styx said as she pointed to Robert who Artemis just noticed.

"And?" Artemis asked pretending not to know the boy.

"Don't play dumb, we both know you're not. Artemis, he's your son, and you broke the oath, and to make things worse you allowed him to be attacked by the Nemean Lion under a full moon, there is no reason you couldn't make an excuse to try and save him and his father sadly though his father is no more." Styx told her as she took a step back.

"What was I supposed to do? That thing is a male! If he was born a female it would have been different." Artemis said as Styx's eyes narrowed.

"You're lying, Artemis, you're the Goddesses of Childbirth, so you should want a child male or not. Why did you leave him to die, and if your reason is good enough, I'll let you stay as his mother." Styx told her as Artemis' eyes were growing watery.

"I didn't want him to die . . ." Artemis revealed as Styx stood emotionless.

"By whom exactly?" Styx pressed as Artemis took a shaky breath.

"My father said he would kill him if I tried to take him. He said that was my punishment." Artemis said as Styx growled and Artemis flinched at that.

"How dare him . . ." Styx growled out as she started at the sky.

"Alright, I'll allow you to remain as his mother, but I should warn you. If you ever leave him to die again, I'll make you wish you could die." Styx threatened as Artemis nodded quickly in agreement.

"Can I . . . Can I take him?" Artemis asks as Styx though about it before nodding to her.

"Yes, but only for a day. If you prove that you can love him like you would your hunters I'll let him stay with you. It goes for your hunters as well; they must love him as a brother. If not I'll keep him and only allow him to visit when I feel like it." Styx told her as she motioned Robert to his mother. Robert glanced at Styx who smiled to him to go on.

"Come Robert, come to mommy . . ." Artemis called as Robert smiled a bit to her and walked to Artemis.

"I'll leave for now, for I have a certain god to visit." She said as she turned to leave.

'And Robert, keep you powers from your mother until I give the ok." Styx told him in his mind. Artemis hugged Robert and kissed his forehead.

"I'm glad I can actually hold you in my arms now, you don't know how longed I wished for this." Artemis said as she continued to hug him. After the hug she stood up and called out.

"Hunters, I've got someone for you to meet!" She called and the hunters piled out of the tents quickly, expecting a new hunter. When they arrived they were shocked to find a boy, besides Artemis's lieutenant Zoe.

"Why is a boy doing here, Milady?" A hunter asked as Artemis smiled softly at the hunter.

"A few years ago, I fell to my desires to have a child, I did so with a hunter I've met and accepted. He was kind, truly kind, and was everything I didn't despise. However due to my feelings for both my acceptance of him and his hunting skills, I've become pregnant by those things and after I told him about who I really was and what I wanted him to do, he gladly agreed to what I asked, to raise our son to be respectful of women, and be honest and kind, and much more things. Now it seems I have to do it." Artemis told as she finished with a sad smile.

"Why because he lied and didn't do it?" Another hunter asked as Artemis shook her head

"No he died, by the Nemean Lion." Artemis said as the hunters gasped, they were just told to hunt the monster, today and were going to does so as of first light.

"So will you accept him as your brother?" Artemis asked the big questioned. The hunters nodded and saw nothing wrong with it. They got a chance to raise the one good male, after all. However one hunter wasn't so happy with it, and in the back with a frown she glared at the boy, and she waited for her chance to rid this haven for girls of the impurity of the boy.
