…accept"

The gods all seemed to breath a sigh of releife, "very well percy" his father said, "this might hurt a bit" Percy saw a bright gold light…

The the world went black.

"Percy," his father said when he came to, "how do you feel?"

"great." he said, still in slight pain, but feeling stronger than ever.

"zeus has decided that you are too powerful not to be on the Olympian council, so you must either replace a god, or find a goddess who will join."

Hestia stepped forward from her place at the hearth and said, "I am willing to rejoin the council of my brothers."

"Very well," zeus mumbled, "we must find someone to train him…"

"father," Artimis spoke up, "I will do it."

"you… train a male god…hmmm…alright, instruct him in his duties, he will naturally have most of his abilities."

Perseus Jackson intrigued artimis.

He was the first man that she could care to remember who had his heart broken by a woman, and had no clear reason why. He was also one of the few men she did not truly hate. In fact she thought that she might not even dislike the man.

As artimis was wrapped up in her thought as she walked, she unwittingly found her way to her palace. Once they were inside she and Percy sat down and she began to speak.

"perseus, you will be the god of tides, swordsmanship, and heros."

"wait," Percy said stunned, "god of heros?"

"yes, your domain will be at camp half-blood."

"is that such a great idea, Lady Artemis?"

"it is what it is, regardless of what you say."

She lectured him for a few hours, all the while niether was really paying attention. Both were taking in the other as intently as if it were their last day alive. However niether realized this as Percy was still not at his best, and artimis couldn't even figure out ho she was feeling.

"well Percy," artemis had started calling him that midway through the conversation, "I will need to speak to you again about some more detailed points of being a god. In the meantime you may return to camp, I will inform Chiron and Dionysus will be removed form duty."

"alright…can you ask Chiron not to reveal anything yet?"

"very well, Percy, however I'm not sure he will."

"alright, I'll see you…"

"tomorrow, we can complete your training then."

"OK, and artemis," her heart skipped a beat, "thank you." He said it with such sincerity and… what was she thinking, she was Artemis she was not falling in love.

Or was she?
