A/N: Hello again! So, I want to thank Dreamer Loves Horses for bringing the review response issue to my attention... I didn't know I wasn't allowed to respond to reviews in an A/N! So, yeah, from now on I'll be responding to reviews through PM's. Just letting you know! :)

Anyway, this chapter's a bit random, but only because the main conflict is just starting! (Like it says in the summary) So, YAY! And while we're celebrating, I wish you all a HAPPY NATIONAL INANE ANSWERING MESSAGE DAY! (Confused as to why on Earth that's a holiday? I am... :) )

Peace out,

APOLLO'S POV

Well, that was… interesting. I can't wait until Hermes puts the spotlight on me! How awesome will it be to see everyone's praise and appreciation? But until then, I suppose I could start writing a story of my own.

I logged into FanFiction, and saw that I had gotten a PM:

SilverMoonlight: I suggest you read my story. It would benefit you.

Benefit me, huh? Count me in!

I clicked on Arty's profile, and was a bit confused when I saw the title of her only fic:

50 Reasons to Hate Apollo

I clicked on the link, and immediately began reading. It looks like I had done my job well! Wait… what's this?

Reason #12: His poetry. It is terrible. No matter how many times people tell him to stop, he just doesn't take the hint. Who would have thought the god of poetry can't even make a decent poem?

Whoa, Arty. I knew you thought I was annoying and all, but that was a bit too far. And I bet everyone else will agree with me.

I clicked on the review button, and my jaw dropped when I saw how people had responded to her fic:

ILuvPJO: This is sooooo true! Loved it!

ArtemisRulez: Ha, I totally agree with you. On all of these.

PJO4ever: Most honest fic ever! Keep updating!

Guest: This is so perfectly written, you could be Artemis herself! Every reason makes sense!

DaughterOfArtemis: Yes. Just… yes.

Daughter of Artemis? I'm surprised she didn't say anything to that. But still, everyone likes to hear exactly what Artemis thinks of me? Well, then. I see how it is.

I looked up at the stats, and saw that more than 200 people had followed and favorited the fic.

Well, two can play at that game! It is ON!

I clicked on the Document Manager and started typing furiously.

Why Apollo is Awesome and Artemis is Not

Apollo clearly has the looks.

Artemis is no fun!

Artemis made some pathetic "oath" that basically does nothing but go against her.

Apollo is older, no matter what Artemis says.

Apollo is smarter. Obviously.

Artemis can't write a poem for her life.

Artemis doesn't appreciate Apollo's many talents.

Apollo is hot.

Apollo is cool.

Apollo is awesome.

Apollo is the best.

Ha! In your face, Arty! I'm just going to keep adding to this list until I run out of ideas. Which will never happen.

I published my story, then smiled in satisfaction. This will show her!

LATER…

Okay, I can't wait any longer! I have to check on it NOW!

I lunged for my laptop, eagerly logging into FanFiction.

I took a breath, then clicked on the Manage Stories button. Here goes! And…

4 reviews. That's it. 4 measly reviews! And 1 follower!

I clicked on the review button.

SilverMoonlight: Really? Brother, why do you always have to turn everything into a competition?

Guest: Are you kidding? ARTEMIS RULES!

MrPrankster: Apollo, smarter than Artemis? That's a joke, right?

ShadowMaster: This is horrible. Why do you even try? You really expect rubbish like this to become popular? You should do us all a favor and take this down. That's 20 seconds of my life that I'll never get back. Thanks a lot.

Hmm… not exactly the response I was hoping for. This "ShadowMaster" person has quite the nerve, talking to a god like that. When I find him, I'll make sure he gets what he deserves! But, the only thing is… who is he?
