A is for Artemis

Thalia's POV:

I was nervous as I walked to the Big House were Artemis was currently talking to Chiron and Mr D. I knew why I had been summoned. I had started liking Nico. We had started hanging out around camp and I had fell for him. He had fell for me too and we really, really liked each other but the thing is I am a Hunter and Hunters cannot fall for men. When I got to the Big House, Chiron, Mr D and Artemis were standing in a circle talking, I guessed about me. Then Artemis turned around and said, "Nice to see you Thalia, do you know why you have been summoned here?" I nodded, still feeling nervous. She then said, "Thalia, you have broken the pledge that you would pledge yourself to me, you have not turned your back on the company of men and you have started liking Nico Di Angelo am I correct?" I nodded and then said, "I am sorry Lady Artemis, I have broken the pledge that I gave to you and have not turned my back on the company of men." Artemis looked at me for a while, I think she was angry but also upset as I was her lieutenant. She then said, "I am sorry to say Thalia but you can no longer be a Hunter. I will not turn you into a jackalope or any animal as your father would kill me so I will purely just strip your powers and you will become mortal. Mr D has said you can stay at camp in the Zeus Cabin. Artemis said, "I Artemis, strip this Hunter of her powers as she has gone against me." After Artemis said the word me, I felt less powerful and mortal again. Artemis said, "I hope you choose wisely by going against the Hunters and becoming mortal again." I nodded and ran off to find Nico.

Nico's POV:

I see Thalia come out from the Big House. Why was she at the Big House? She walks over to me and says, "I am no longer a Hunter." I stood there shocked, Thalia, no longer a Hunter. She was the lieutenant of the Hunters though. I then asked, "Why are you no longer a Hunter?" She answered, "Because I broke the pledge, I didn't turn my back on the company of men because I fell in love with you." I look into Thalia's eyes, there electric blue and they are beautiful. I then whisper, "Thalia, I love you too." She wraps her arms around my neck and I wrap my arms around her waist and we kissed. I felt amazing, having my arms around the girl I loved and kissing her. When we pulled apart she said, "Shall we go to Zeus Fist for some privacy?" I said, "Why not?"
