AN: I didn't make a typo when listing Perseus's domains, they are mist, as in the normal kind we can see, and The Mist, as in the magical kind. Sorry for any confusion.

It had been a day since I'd become engaged.

Today, I was hoping that we would tell my father. This presented the perfect opportunity Poseidon to come to a council meeting.

You see Zeus has a thing about freaking out and killing people when something he doesn't want to happen happens. A good example would be when one of his daughters, particularly a sworn virgin goddess, tells him that they are getting married to his greatest rival's/brother's child. Yeah, that kind of thing really rubs him the wrong way.

This is why Poseidon needed to be there, he was the only one, bar possibly Hades, that could stand up to him in terms of power.

I'd been given permission to go Atlantis whenever I wanted now, so I didn't have to ask Poseidon for permission when I flash into his throne room that morning. When I got there there was only one person in there who I then recognised as Triton, Perseus's younger brother.

"Triton, go tell your father that I'm here and would like to talk to him." I ordered him, I'd decided to keep the reputation of a man-hater, well at least until the marriage becomes public. "And tell him to bring Perseus as well." I added as an afterthought.

He nodded, before swimming out with his twin fish tails, god I'm glad Perseus doesn't have those. I mean image having to sleep with a fish, left alone two! Whoa, I'm getting ahead of myself there.

I only had to wait a few minutes before my fiancé and his father walked in. However, that was enough time for my mind to wonder, I started to wonder why I could breath and why I walking instead of swimming like Triton had, I hadn't come up with an answer so I made a mental note to ask Perseus later.

"Artemis!" Poseidon greeted me, holding his arms out welcoming me into a hug, apparently this was becoming a regular thing. Not that that's a bad thing I quite liked it, it's just I'm still getting used to it.

When Poseidon released me I heard "Lady Artemis." I turned and saw Perseus, looking as gorgeous as ever.

"How many times must I tell you to scrap the title?" I scolded playfully.

"One more time, my Lady." He countered. Now I couldn't think of anything witty to say so I compromised and gave hi a hug.

He must of not been expecting me to do that as he tensed up as I wrapped my arms around him, though he relaxed a bit, hugging me back.

"Uncle, unfortunately I didn't come here to be hugged." I began. "I came to ask you if you'd accompany Perseus and I when we inform my father of our marriage. You know that if we don't tell him, he'll cast me from Olympus, and as much our family annoys me, I do love them." I could tell Poseidon was not quite convinced, so I turned on the puppy dog eyes.

Now the sea god was on the brink of coming back to Olympus with me but he still resisted. I glanced at my fiancé hoping he'd help me out. Thank the gods that Perseus isn't as stupid as most males, as he soon joined me.

"Yeah dad, I'd really appreciate some extra fire power, you know how Zeus can react." He said, making it sound like joke.

Poseidon chuckled, "Yes, our uncle is a bit of a loose cannon. I'll come with you to Olympus, it'll be nice to see some of the other gods again."

That last part shocked me. "Uncle, are you saying that you haven't heard from any of the other gods while you've been done here?"

"Well, Hades and Hestia have visited occasionally. Some of the other sea gods sometimes visit my palace but apart from that, no one really."

"If that's the case I'm going to drag you to Olympus, even if it's just so can socialise." I scolded.

"Gods, you sound like my mother." Poseidon said under his breath.

When we flashed to Olympus, we arrived out side the throne room. Poseidon led the way into the throne room, with myself and Perseus flanking him on either side.

A meeting was being held and it was clear that there was an argument going on. Dionysus was shouting at Demeter, something about grapes being better than wheat. Most other gods were just ignoring what was going on: Ares was sharping a sword, Aphrodite was doing something with her hair, Apollo was picking out a slow melody on his lyre.

However, when we entered all of the gods attention turned to us.

"Brother, you finally decided to come crawling back to us then?" Zeus said, in the most pompous voice I'd ever heard.

"Actually, brother, your daughter" Poseidon gestured to me, gods I wished he hadn't of done that. Every pair of eyes turned to me. "asked me to accompany her here. As it appears she has some news she has to tell the council."

And with that, Poseidon marched off to his throne. I hate him so much, how dare he put me in this position.

"Well, daughter. What is this news you have for the council?" My father asked. Well I might as well get this over with before my nerves give out.

"I wanted to tell you that, I'm getting married." I said, becoming more and more awkward as I talked.

"Your getting married, who to? I'll kill them!" My twin, Apollo shouted.

I looked at Perseus, nodded.

"I'm marrying Perseus, son of Poseidon and Hecate." As I said this, the person in question took my hand.

Almost immediately Apollo shot an arrow, I was sure it was going to hit Perseus in face but he missed and by some way too. That's something I've never seen him do.

However, Apollo started to grin like he was really pleased with himself. Then Perseus spoke for the first time. "I think you need to work on your aim, cousin."

"W-what?" Apollo spluttered, "but I hit you. I saw my arrow hit you."

Perseus sighed, "Allow me to introduce myself, cousin, I am Perseus, first born of Poseidon and Hecate, God of tides, mist and Mist."

It was only now that I saw the mist surrounding Perseus and I, he must be protecting us from the other Olympians. You know he really is clever, for a man.

Now it was my fathers turn to make a fuss. "I won't allow any daughter of mine to marry a son of Poseidon, I won't allow it." Gods he sounded, like a spoiled child.

I could see Poseidon was about to attack father for the insult, his trident in hand was starting to glow with godly power. Now I was expecting a brawl between the brothers but fortunately there sister stopped them.

"Now, my husband, now is not the time." Hera said, then she said something I'd never expected. "I actually support the marriage." Needless to say, I was gobsmacked. You know I always thought Hera was a great woman. "It may stop her killing of vast numbers of the male population," I suddenly found I couldn't look Perseus in the eye at this point. "and it may be able to teach her proper place in the world." Okay so I take it back, Hera's a bitch. "However, there should be one demand that they need to meet."

"And what would that be, Lady Hera?" my fiancé asked, it's probably a good think that he asked as I think I would have been very rude to the queen of the heavens.

"Well, young Perseus," Great it seems like that bitch likes my fiancé, "it's very simple." Oh sure it will, something like do one hundred labours or go to tartarus and beat up all the reforming Titans. "All we want is Poseidon to rejoin the council." Well, that really is perfect, have I said how much I like Hera?

"WHAT?" my father roared, he clearly didn't think as highly as I did. But Hera glared him down. They looked like they were having telepathic/facial expression conversations that only couples can do. I think Hera's probably saying "Agree with me or no sex for a week." Yes that would convince father. "Fine,' Zeus said, submitting to Hera, "You can marry if Poseidon rejoins the council."

With that said I turned to Poseidon, giving the whole puppy dog eyes thing. This time he caved quite quickly. "Fine, I'll rejoin the council."

"Good, now Artemis, Perseus, your marriage will be in two months, if you want I will plan it for you." Hera said, she'd clearly taken control of the meeting now.

"We would be honoured for you to plan our wedding, Lady Hera" Perseus said, causing Hera to beam at him.

"Good, why don't you two go now, we'll finish the meeting and I'll come and find the you later so you can tell me what kind of wedding you want."

With that dismissal, Perseus took my hand and we walked out of the throne room, once outside I remembered something.

"Perseus, how come I can breath in Atlantis?"

He looked at me like I'd just come from the moon, which I suppose I had, before saying "The Mist."
