Prologue
"Thalia...don't do it." I barely choked out of my cracking throat. No, I couldn't lose her. Not now, not now that I finally know that she loves me too. She couldn't go.
Thalia looked at me, her face streaming with tears.
"I'm sorry Percy, it's the only way I know you'll be safe. I don't have any other choice. I'm sorry." Thalia said in response, her face turned towards the sparkling marble floor.
"Yes Lady Artemis, I will join the Hunt."
With those simple words, I stopped breathing. My hands turned cold. I don't know how long it took for my brain to realize that I needed air. I simply stared sightlessly as Thalia began to recite to vow of the Hunters. When she was finished, Artemis and Aphrodite both stood up.
"Percy Jackson." the goddess Artemis started., "Thalia is no longer allowed to show any affection towards you. But the gods are not without mercy." Here, Aphrodite began talking.
"As you have saved the gods more than once, we are willing to repress you're memories of this summer, and replace them with a very similar time-line, one that would only make you forget about your feelings towards Thalia. After all, I'd hate to see this century's hero give up on love.
My head was swimming. Should I accept this offer this offer? Should I forget everything about my affections for Thalia? Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a teary-eyed Thalia looking at me, mouthing two words that could change my life forever: 'say yes'.
Stone faced, I turned towards the two goddesses. "I'll do it."
"Then so be it." was Artemis's response.
After those four words were spoken, I saw a quick flash of pale, silver lightning, and everything went black.
A/N: Yes, I know it's short, but the rest of the chapters will be longer, hopefully much longer. I'm aiming for around 1,000-2,000 words per chapter, but I'll probably end around 1,400. Well, until next time. And so we go.
