I would like to thank cder3 for his advice he gave me and some romance ideas, that I will put in this chapter. And one more thing, I have an idea for another story loosely based on the titans curse, but before I can start it I want to finish this story(or at least get a few more chapters in) and I need to know if I'm allowed to use creatures or the appearance of creatures without disclaiming because this new story has someone take the form of a creature from another series and uses the same weapons, vehicles and equipment, but it is not a crossover.

Percy POV
Me and Brandon were in a transport helicopter heading to meet Artemis and the twenty hunters that attacked Brandon and Danny. I had decided the punishment, single combat, although Artemis probably thought that I was bringing more knights, not one.
But all I needed was one. Brandon could easily defeat twenty hunters. I looked over at Brandon, he was now fully recovered, he was wearing the standard knight black hooded cloak, and skull like helmet, hiding his face of all emotion, strapped to his back were two swords, one was originally his, while the other was his now deceased apprentice Danny.
"Feeling nervous" I asked
"NO, I feel murderous"
"Good, but try to remember that you just need to defeat them, not kill them. When one knight defeats twenty hunters they'll back off."
"You sure I can't kill at least one of those prideful monsters" he asked, he wasn't joking.
"No, if you kill one of them that would ignite a war between the knights and the hunters, and Artemis is Zeus's daughter, so she clearly has favor of most of the gods, as most of them are Zeus's children".
"I think I could live with that"
"Okay then, Brandon I order you not to kill a hunter, understand"
"Yes sir"
"Good, now be ready were almost there"
Artemis POV
Me and my hunters waited in the small clearing in New Hampshire for Persues. I was worried for my hunters, no one knew much of Persues's knights, they mainly stayed in some secret fortress, and only came for training missions.
The only thing we do know is the obvious, Persues being the god of heroes, weapons, soldiers and the senses, means they are very well trained, well equipped, and they no doubt have the same matter abilities Persues has, this will be a tough fight for my hunters, just then a transport helicopter landed in the clearing, and two cloaked figures walked out, I recognized Persues, the other one must have been a knight see the skull helmet, which I heard was what they usually wear, but why is their only one, I their would be more for the single combat.
He walked over to me, the knight staying back a little looking at the hunters, but its easy to tell he was glaring at them, even with his mask on, and the hunters were glaring right back at him.
These hunters hated Persues's knights and still do, and there confident they could defeat the knights in single combat.
"Is this all of them" Persues asked
"Yes"
"Alright then lets get this over with"
"Why did you only bring one knight"
"I only need one, besides he's my best fighter and he's gotten better ever since your hunters killed his apprentice"
I was shocked, he would bring the knight my hunters attacked, I was worried he would get to enthusiastic in his fighting and end up killing one of the hunters, I was glad Annabeth did not take part in the attack, otherwise Persues would prefer execution over single combat. I still wonder why he chose single combat, not that I wasn't glad he did, because now theirs only a slim chance they would die.
Amanda the oldest out of the hunters stepped forward, looking confident and almost smug. She took out her bow, and the knight took out two swords, and the fight began.(AN: I am sorry, but I didn't know how to make the fight between Brandon and the hunters, so use your imagination while we skip to the aftermath of the fight)
My hunters were beaten, bruised, tired, and a few had broken bones, but other then that they were fine, and I was very thankful to Persues, his knight, Brandon could have easily killed a hunter on more then several times, but was stopped by Persues, speaking of Brandon, he didn't so much as have a scratch on him, he was clearly well trained.
The hunters while they were thankful they weren't dead, they hated the knights even more, but agreed to leave them alone. While the hunters went back to the camp, and Brandon boarded the helicopter, I went to go talk to Persues.
"Persues, can I speak with you"
"I guess"
"I just wanted to say thank you, you could have easily let Brandon kill my hunters, but you didn't"
"It was just the terms of the punishment, no deaths, that was it"
I looked into is reptilian like eyes, they were deep and I could see pain in them, then I did something that felt natural, I kissed him lightly on the lips, he looked surprised, but didn't say anything.
"Thank you" I whispered, and left to catch up with the hunters.
Percy POV
This is bad, real bad I thought to myself as I walked back to the helicopter. She can't have feelings for me, can she, no that was just a thank you nothing more.
I walked into the helicopter, told the drone pilot to take us back to the Citadel. I sat down next to Brandon and decided I should tell him some bad news.
"Brandon I'm sorry to tell you this, but you aren't going to be getting a new apprentice"
"Wha-"
"Because, I have a new assignment, that I need you to do in a couple of years, and I need your full attention on it, so that means no apprentice, at least for a while, understood"
"Yes sir". I could tell he didn't like the idea of no new apprentice, but he needs some time to get over Danny's death, and this assignment is really important to me, and I want my best knight on it.
Seven years later
Lilly POV (who the heck is this?)
I. am. Bored.
Okay I do not do well in English, but hey, blame my dyslexia.
My name is Lilly Andromeda Daye, I'm twelve years old, I'm a dyslexic, and aside from English classes, my life isn't that bad. My mom, Emma Daye met my dad in the army, but dad had to leave for some reason, after my mom found out she was pregnant with me and had to leave the army, I guess that would make my dad look like a bad guy, but he isn't, before he left he made sure my mom had plenty of money to have a good life with me. Although I don't have that many friends, mainly because my yellow eyes scare people(who do we know that has yellow eyes). When I look in the mirror, it looks like I have the eyes of a raptor from Jurassic park. f
Anyway it was a normal day in school in a small town of Garland, Maine, population little under a thousand. I don't know why my mom moved here after she left the army, but thanks to the money dad left us we got the best house in town, I walked into the house and started to look for mom, she's usually home before I get out of school, I walked into the kitchen and found a terrible sight, my science teacher DR. Thorn standing over the lifeless form of my mother.
I just stood their, horrified. Thorn saw me and smiled. "Hello Lilly, I'm sorry to say this but it's time for you to die". And then he turned into some kind of lion creature, that's all I saw before I ran out of the house, I ran down the street, but the creature was catching up easily, when it was close enough in jumped in midair and would have had her had a black cloaked figure not interfered, tackling the creature to the ground, the cloaked figure got up and pulled out a pistol and without mercy shot the creature in the head and it turned to dust.
The cloaked man now turned to Lilly, she for some reason didn't feel threatened by him.
"Are you alright" he asked
"Yeah I'm fine, but who are you"
"My name is Brandon, I work for your Dad"
"MY DAD!"
This seems like a good place to stop, I really want to type the first chapter for a new story I got, while it's still fresh in my head(and before football starts).
