The first time I meet the hunters I was ten, and Annabeth had just been kidnapped, my brother was frantic and upset, the demi-gods we had rescued were in a mixture of shock and panic, they looked familiar, like I'd seen them before, the hunters were beautiful, full of grace and looked like a family, one I wished I was a part of.
I saw them at the end of the year, after Zoe (Artemis lieutenant) and Bianca di Angelo (one of the demi-gods we rescued) died, we were on Olympus, my brother was worried that Annabeth would join the hunters, when Artemis asked Thalia to join the hunters, she said yes, when Artemis turned to me and asked me if I wanted to join the hunt, Percy (my brother) immediately said "no Alex don't" he looked at me pleadingly, I wanted to say yes, to have a family that like the hunters, but I didn't want to leave my mum and brother behind so I said No.
The next time I saw the hunters I was twelve, we had just saved Olympus and Percy had just turned down becoming a god and made the gods and goddess swear on the river Styx to claim their kids by the age of twelve and bring them to camp, I watched as each of Percy's friends and our brother Tyson get given something and briefly wondered why only they got given something, and how lots of demi-gods didn't get recognised for their part.
When Lady Artemis asked me again if I would join the hunt, again Percy told me no, when I so desperately wanted to say yes, but I didn't because again I couldn't leave my family with Percy and mum, and Nico hated the hunters, so I said no again, Thalia, looked slightly disappointed, and handed me a card and said think about.
The third time I saw the hunters I was sixteen, we had just defeated Gaia and sent her back to sleep and I was tired of being a demi-god and I was tired of being Percy Jacksons little sister, Jason had Piper now and I knew Leo would come back, Nico would hopefully stay at camp-half blond and make friends, Percy had Annabeth so I was not needed, so I said "Yes".
