"No mom… don't give me red pancakes…" I yelled. I sat up, sweat covering my entire body… I shivered. It was quite warm in the room. In an instant realized I wasn't in my cabin.
Wait…Where am I? I have never been here before. Is it in the Olympian palace? The room itself was simple…too simple. No extravagant decorations or paintings were in the room, and it was smaller than my cabin at camp half-blood. The only furniture in the room were a large desk on the right and a large closet to the left. The bed lay in the center of the room.
Taking of the silky, silver sheets, I noticed I naked…weird, looking around in the pale morning light, I saw my clothes in a pile at the side of the bed. My only guess would be that could not handle the wine, knocking me unconscious. So Apollo dragged me to a guest room in main palace. And why am i naked and what about Artemis? She was at the garden with us…wouldn't she have stopped me? Maybe… but I don't remember exactly what happened. All I remember is following Apollo and Hermes to Artemis' garden. Artemis arrived, finding us in her garden, we both consumed the wine…After that, I have no memories.
I lay in the bed. All types of scenarios ran through my head. Maybe I went back to the party and made a fool of myself….or worse. I stretched my hands across the bed. My alarm systems went off…I felt a large bump under the sheets. Looking closely, it was the figure of a person, a slim one. I froze. I could hear my blood pounding, my muscles screamed for me to flee but I could not move.
Taking all my courage, I moved slowly toward the body. Taking the edge of the sheets, I pulled them off the body. A pair of silver eyes stared back at me, the figure is Artemis. She was naked too. Anger and rage flashed through her eyes but what shattered me was her look of betrayal. I had betrayed her trust. Before I could say a thing, she grabbed me by the neck and threw me across the room. My back hit the wall, pain coursed throughout my body.
"Perseus… I trusted you…" Artemis said.
No word came from my mouth. My muscles contracted… I could not move. All I felt was pain. "Sorry…" I said. It was all I could say. Nothing that I say would remedy the whole situation. My whole body hurt…no my entire being hurt. First I let my friends die…now I hurt the one who held trust in me. I am such a despicable being.
Well…I guess it is time for my life to end. All the suffering and pain I caused would end in an instant. Maybe it would bring some peace to those that I failed to save.
"That is it…Just a simple apology… Don't screw with me mortal," she yelled.
Artemis stood up…in a golden flash, summoned her armor. Taking out her silver knives, she charged at me. I closed my eyes… I would die here. I would meet those that I failed to save. But Artemis never reached me, in bright golden flash three figures appeared. Aphrodite, Hermes, and Apollo had teleported into the room. Apollo and Aphrodite restrained Artemis knocking the knives out of her hands.
Interesting, Aphrodite is quite strong. To be able to hold back Artemis is quite a Feat But my rescue gives me no peace. I should be destroyed, mutilated, tortured or killed but not saved. My sins should be paid for in full, especially for tainting a maiden goddess such as Artemis.
Hermes came toward me. He placed a hand on my shoulder. The world rippled around me, the fabric of reality breaking. In a flash of light, Hermes teleported me out.
