Sup guys, hope you people have been enjoying the story so far. Like I said I'm trying to make the chapters longer, so I'm going to make sure that each chapter I write is at least two thousand words, but I am going to try to get about five thousand. Also for the P. I am mainly writing in Artemis's view to try to get you guys to understand what she is thinking about everything that is happening. Next chapter though I am going to try to write in Revan's P.O.V. And also for the pairing, I am going to make it a kind of slow get together. I know this might upset some of you who want a quick get together(I usually do) but I want to make it feel real, and not like some forced relationship that I see in a lot of other Pertemis FanFics.

Oh and I wanted to explain something that some of you might not understand. The reason Revan still sees Kronos as his father instead of Poseidon is because he thinks it is Poseidon's fault his mother died(this will be explained in a later chapter) and blames him for everything bad that has happened to him. In his mind Kronos was a better father than Poseidon ever was, even if he was evil. Anyways, on with the story.

P.O.V Artemis

It had been about six months since the battle on top of Mount Othrys and since then a lot of things had happened. Camp Half-Blood, had started preparing for an attack after finding the entrance to the labyrinth in the forest. The hunt had been busy recruiting and destroying the powerful monsters that popped up, before they could join the Titans.

At the moment though I didn't care about any of that. All I cared about was making sure Revan was okay(he still insisted on being called that.). He had made a lot of progress in not killing everything that made him mad, like he was used to, but there had been a few setbacks. The most recent of which had happened the day before. Or night before I guess. It hadn't been time for our weekly meeting, but he had contacted me saying he needed to talk. When we met up he explained what had been happening to him.

Because of his betrayal, Kronos had been plaguing his dreams, with sounds of screaming, and the people he loved dieing. I had been kind of confused about the last one, but he said that he would have nightmares, of his mother being tortured, raped, and murdered.

I sighed as I looked him. His head was in his hands and he was crying. He had just finished explaining his most recent nightmare, which by far was the worst. He said that he saw innocent people being killed by his father, and again his mother being raped and tortured. But he said that this time I was also their, being brutally tortured, raped, and killed only for me to reform and have it all happen again.

As soon as he finished explaining it he started sobbing. I tried to comfort him but I knew there was nothing I could do.

"I just don't know what to do Artemis." He cried. "He is torturing me, and I just can't stand it. He said that if I come back to him, he will make it all stop, and I was actually thinking about. You're the only person I can talk to and you don't even understand what I am going through. I just don't know what to do." He broke down again. It was hard to believe he was the same man from six months ago. But the thing he said about actually thinking about going back to Kronos worried me.

"Revan look at me. No matter what, you can't go back. If you do then he will kill you. And if he doesn't kill you either Zeus will, or he will send me to do it, and I know that I can't kill you."

"You don't understand though. I can't deal with this anymore. I feel like I'm going to explode, and there is no one there, but you to help me. And you don't even really count." Ouch. That hurt. "I mean you're my only friend and all, but I know that if I explained everything to you, you wouldn't get it, and you would try to help, but you would just make everything worse."

"Then help me to understand. I want to help."

"Just cause the gods want to make sure I don't attack them. I know that's the only reason you even try to help me." He said bitterly.

"You're impossible." I shouted. "I'm helping you because I want to. The gods just told me to watch you. They didn't say anything about helping you." I then sighed. "Rev. There might be a way for me to understand. But you have to trust me. I am going to go into your mind, if you try to push me out and I can't leave correctly you will die. No matter how powerful you."

He took a deep breath. "Let's do it."

"Okay what I need you to do is, relax your mind." I kneeled next to him and put my forefinger and middle finger up to his forehead. "Now I need you to picture a door opening and me coming through." I knew that he did it because I could feel myself entering his thoughts. "Now quickly think of the dream."

I knew immediately why he was saying I would never understand. Because I never could. The things I saw. They would give Zeus nightmares. I saw terrible monsters, and I heard screaming in the background. Then the image shifted and I was in a small, dark room. In the middle was a women that looked like Revan. She was chained to the ground. In front of her was a man, with scars all over his body, and golden eyes. He was torturing her. Sticking knives all over her body. The image shifted, right as three men walked into the room. I had a feeling, though, that Revan had purposefully shifted the dream so I didn't see what was about to happen. That just frightened me even more.

The next image was just as worse as the first. We were in Camp Half-Blood. The man from before was there again. Once again in the background I could hear the screams. They weren't just screams of terror, but of pain and anguish. The screams that people would find solace from, only in death. Focusing back on the man, I could see a line of people in front of him. He was going up to each person, and stabbing a sword in their shoulders, stomach, legs, and feet, before decapitating them. After what felt like forever the image shifted again.

This time I was in it. I was sobbing, and chained to the ground. The same man from each vision was, as usual, there. He did the same thing he did to the children from the previous image, to me. Then once again it skipped ahead, as three men walked in. When it resumed I was on the ground, naked, with blood all over my body and dripping from my lower body. It ended as the man came up from behind me and stabbed me in the heart.

I came back to my open body, sobbing. Revan was crying to. He grabbed me and hugged me. Normally I would kill him for this, but I knew that he needed me right now. And to be honest. After seeing what had happened in his dream, I needed comfort right now.

I must have fallen asleep because the next thing I knew I was laying on the couch. The only weird thing about that was that Revan was laying next to me, holding me in his arms. I almost killed him right there. The only thing that stopped me, was the tear stains I could see on his cheeks. I couldn't even imagine how he felt. I had seen just a small portion of his dream, and I had broken down. Me, a goddess.

I debated about staying there until he woke up, but I knew that I had to go back to the hunt. I wrote him a quick note and flashed back to my tent in camp. I tried to compose myself before walking out. The hunters were in the middle of dinner. Zoe gasped when she saw me. Guess I was still a bit of a wreck.

"Milady, are you ok?" She asked, concern is her voice.

"Please Zoe come with me. We must talk." I knew she was the only person who could comfort me. She followed me back to my tent. As soon as the flap closed I broke down.

"Milady, what happened?"

"It was terrible Zoe. I don't know how he deals with it." She immediately knew who I was talking about.

"Milady, what are you talking about?"

"He- he showed me the nightmares he was having. It was the worst thing I had ever seen."

"What did you see?"

"Please don't make me explain it. I don't even know how he could have replayed it in his head for me, without going insane."

Zoe seemed to form her next words carefully. "Milady, may I ask. Why did you agree to become the man's, what did they call it, parole officer? Do you know him?"

I sighed. "I did."

She looked confused. "What do you mean you used to?"

"A few years ago, I was on a solo hunt. I was in the woods when I saw a small boy, wandering around. I went to go turn him into an animal, and rid the world of another male. When I got down to him though, I noticed something peculiar. I don't know how to explain it, but I just had this feeling that I couldn't kill him. I ended up talking to him. He told me how he had run away from home, and gotten lost in the woods. I showed him how to get food and left. A few weeks later I went back and he was still there. We talked more and I ended up visiting almost every single time I left the hunt. I even started making up hunts to see him. Then one day, he came back to his camp. He was just so angry. I tried to get him to talk to me, but he wouldn't later that day we got attacked by a drakon. I was so distracted that I let my arrow slip and it hit him in the back. The drakon bit him then charged me. I flashed away in a panic. When I went back later he was gone. You know the story from there." She looked at me for a few minutes, until she finally said something.

"You weren't, romantically involved with him, correct." She said romantically like it was poison.

"No, no, he was twelve at the time."

"So you feel like you want to repay him and that's it?" Zoe asked hopefully.

I took a deep breath. "Yes. But I also want to know if he is a soulless murderer or if he is the boy that I used to know."

"Why would you want to go anywhere near a male willingly though?"

"Like I said Zoe. I want to see who he has become. Besides, if he is the boy I knew, then he would never do or try anything. No matter what."

Zoe pursed her lips. "Milady, I know you think you know him. But he is still a male, he can't be trusted." I had, had enough.

"Zoe. I trust him. If I sensed a hit of and usual male thoughts in him I would kill him on the spot. But I know him. I know that I can trust him. Now I must go to Olympus. I will be back tomorrow." She nodded and left, dejectedly. I felt kinda bad, but I was annoyed that she didn't understand. Revan was different. Or at least used to be. And if he still was she would find that part of him.

I sighed when I flashed into the throne room, on Olympus. I knew that I would most likely have to tell the rest of the gods about what I learned. But why did I feel like I was betraying his trust. Then I realized something. What if they made Revan come here himself, so they could see the nightmare. That would break him if they made him relive it for a third time, plus all of the time he saw it during the day.

I finally looked around the throne room after, dispersing all of my thoughts. I was the one of the last people there. After another five minutes Aphrodite, and Ares flashed in. Together. Since everyone was there Zeus decided that he could make his entrance. In a large bolt of thunder, he entered the throne room and in his own words, "graced us with his majestic presence". How someone that arrogant was my Father was beyond me, but then again Apollo was my brother. I guess I had more of my Mother.

After Zeus's arrival, he got right to business, saying that during a quest by Camp Half-Blood, they discovered that the Titan's army was marching through the Labyrinth towards the Camp, being lead by a rogue son of Nemesis.

"Artemis, I will need you to head to Camp Half-Blood to help prepare for the battle that is surely coming." I nodded. After a few more minutes Zeus ended his speech, and asked. "Does anyone have anything else they need to say?" I took a deep breath.

"Father, I am worried about Revan."

"What do you mean?" He asked me.

"He has been having, nightmares."

"About?" He gestured for me to continue.

"I- I can't it, it is to much. I don't know how he can deal with it."

"Why don't you bring him here to show us?"

"I can't do that." I said quickly.

"Why, not?" He said, a hint of warning in his tone.

"I do not want to put him through the mental pain once more."

"Dionysus can lessen the pain. Now bring him here quickly." I hesitantly nodded and flashed to where I felt Revan was. He seemed surprised to see me.

"Artemis, why are you here?" As soon as he lost his surprise, suspicion took it's place.

"The council wants to hear about your nightmare."

"You told them." He said, venom is his voice.

"I- I wanted to help you."

"Whatever, let's go."

This was what I was worried about. Now he was mad at me. I flashed us back to the throne room.

"Ah excellent, you are here. Now I'm sure you know what to do for us to see your dream." After seeing his nod he continued. "Well let's get on with it then."

I was grateful that I didn't have to see it again, for more than one reason. Reason one is the obvious, but reason two is not. The expression on most of the gods faces told me that they were seeing the full dream. Rape and all.

Finally they seemed to come back to reality. They all looked uneasy, and nervous. Apollo looked like he was about to murder someone. Probably because of what happened to me in the nightmare.

"Well. That is rather, disconcerting." Zeus said, visibly uncomfortable.

"Father, it is just a dre—" Apollo interrupted me.

"Artemis, demigod dreams aren't just dreams and you know it." He seemed unusually serious.

"Yes the part with Artemis is worrying, but how do we know that you will not accept this offer in an attempt to make these vision not come true, Revan?" Father said. Did he not care about me or something?

"Why don't we just do my original idea, have Revan go with the hunters for the time being?" Hera asked.

Zeus stroked his beard. "I like that plan."

"You've got to be kidding me. My hunters will kill him." Revan snorted at this.

"Artemis, he will be going with you whether you like it or not." I protested a bit more, but I knew I could not win this argument. Finally I conceded.

"Fine, but if he dies it is on you." The smile Zeus gave at these words, made me think that he wanted Revan dead. This actually made a lot of sense. Revan still had some loyalty to Kronos and as the son of Kronos, even though he's adopted, he could challenge Zeus for the throne. If it came down to fighting between them, I am not sure who would win.
