Camp, Gods I hated that place, it had no name, not really. Nobody knew what to call it, so we Gods just called it 'Camp', but demigods had plenty of names for it, Camp Olympus, Camp Zeus, Camp Poseidon-really it just depended on what temple you stayed in. I had several siblings, way more then I probably should have considering the fact that I was my mom's only son, and my mom was my dad's wife.

I didn't know all of their names, but I did know a few, such as Theseus, Neleus (evil little kid that one), and Belus, he was Egyptian, but he went to Camp every so often to train and hone his skills. I only knew those ones because I had seen them around Poseidon's underwater palace every so often.

Theseus was nice, and he reminded me of myself, we even looked pretty much the same, the only difference between us was our eyes, mine were sea-green while his were a deep ocean blue. He was a great leader, and I was sure that if it wasn't for Heracles, he would be the leader of Camp.

Neleus, well that kid was a mischievous little freak. He had a twin, I think, but I don't know what happened to him, and Neleus never talks about him. Not that I asked, but I figured it was a sore subject for him. He didn't look anything like me, for which I was glad, this may sound mean, but I didn't want anybody to know I was related to him. He had dirty blonde hair, which was weird, and piggish brown eyes, I didn't understand how he could be a son of Poseidon, but he was.

Belus had the natural dark skin and black hair that all Egyptians had, but his eyes were a surprising blue-gray, sort of like the ocean on a cloudy day. Like Theseus he seemed to be a good leader, but he was to cocky and arrogant sometimes, which is the only thing about him that annoyed me.

Anyways, I slowly looked around Camp from the top of the hill, trying not to show how much the place disgusted me, but judging by what Artemis said next, I wasn't.

"Get that look off of your face." she commanded, and I rolled my eyes before looking over at her. Her head was held high, and her nose was wrinkled disdainfully while her lips were pulled down into a frown. She had the same look as me.

"You have the same look as me!" I exclaimed, voicing my thoughts with energy.

"Yes, but I am an Olympian, I have every right to feel better than these mortals, you, minor God, do not." she looked over at me with a smirk, and I glared.

"When I get my powers back," I growled and crossed my arms over my chest. "You are getting you eyes taken away for a whole month." Artemis snorted, and dropped the bundle of fur in her hand, to the ground. "You know, I think I'm going to name her Butt-head." I said, as I stared down at the wolf that was nipping at my feet.

I could feel Artemis' stare, but didn't comment on it. "I mean, she certainly has a Butt-head, and then when I get mad at her, I don't even have to insult her, I can just say 'You're so stupid, Butt-Head!'. You know?"

"If you said 'stupid' that would be insulting her." Artemis sounded defeated, and I got the feeling that she was giving up on me and the wolf- I mean Butt-Head, getting along.

"Right right, um," I put my hand to my chin as I thought, and met the wolf's gold eyes. "How 'bout, 'go sit in your corner, Butt-Head'?" I asked, and looked over at her. "That way I'm getting rid of her, and insulting her. Pretty smart, right?" I waggled my eyebrows at her, and winked.

She rolled her eyes and looked away from me, but I swear that her cheeks were tinted red. "Let's go visit Chiron, shall we?" she asked, completely changing the subject. I blinked, feeling almost disoriented for a second, before shrugging and following her down the hill.

"Sure, I guess." I said, and fixed my pack so it rested on my shoulder easier. Camp hadn't changed from the last time I had been there, the Big House was still a small marble building, taller rather than longer, but that was because it wasn't dedicated to any God in particular, and if it out staged any of the temples Chiron would probably be smited.

It was pure white, but then again almost every building was then, and- was that a spear sticking out of the top? Gods this whole normal senses thing was getting annoying. No, it wasn't a spear, but what the Hades was it?

"Hey, what's that thing up there?" I asked, and pointed to the thing sticking out of the top. Artemis glanced up, and smiled slightly, obviously happy that it was there.

"Oh, that's one of Hephaestus' inventions, it's suppose to protect the Camp, but it draws more monsters here instead. I personally think it's one of Hephaestus' best inventions." her voice was just a little to cheery.

"Oh, fun." normally I probably would have been happy about that too, but I was living here now, and I had to deal with those stupid monsters too. Not that it would be that hard considering the things I had already beaten, but monsters would still be annoying.

"Lady Artemis?" a new voice said, and I looked up to see a half-man half-horse trotting towards us. I smiled when I saw it was Chiron, he was nice, and had even managed to teach me a few things. But he was still young, and that showed on his handsome features.

A kind smile was on his face, and it made his dark brown eyes twinkle. His wavy brown hair was pushed back, just as short as ever, and his ever present bow was on his back. Now, I'm a God, but I honestly don't understand how a centaur was made, I mean a horse and a human? I'm pretty sure the human would get crushed in that whole set up.

Anyways, an orange cape was wrapped around Chiron's neck, and hung to just above his horse half. In his hand he held a Celestial Bronze sword, and a dagger that was way to small for him.

"Hello, Chiron." Artemis said, her voice neither cold nor warm, just neutral. "You remember Lord Perseus, correct?" she asked, and gestured at me with a small frown.

Chiron's kind eyes transferred to me, and he smiled. "Of course." he said, and bowed his head to me. "It is nice to see you again, my Lord." I nodded at him, and before looking around camp again, I wanted to find some of my siblings- hopefully Theseus or Belus.

"Yes well, there's been a few problems, and Percy has decided to stay here for a while. I'm sure he will decide to inform you of the excruciating circumstances later, but now I must go- my father has a quest that I must get done as fast as possible." I glanced at Artemis as she said this, and felt my stomach twist again. I should have been going on that hunt with her, I shouldn't have been stuck here at Camp like I was.

My eyes met Artemis', and you can trust me when I say I was completely surprised when I felt her warm arms wrap tightly around my neck. I froze for a second, before quickly getting over my shock, and wrapping one of my arms around her back. I buried my face in her hair, and breathed in deeply of her familiar scent.

Artemis had only hugged me a few times in the time that I had known her, but her hugs were always welcomed, because she was just so warm and soft. And she smelt amazing, sort of like pine trees and crisp night air.

"I'm gonna miss you." she whispered softly in my ear, and I nodded roughly. For some reason it felt like we were saying good-bye, for good.

"Yeah, I'm gonna miss you, too. Now who am I going to go to, to get my butt kicked?" I felt her smile against my cheek, and couldn't help but copy it.

"I'm going to get that trident." she whispered, her voice grim and determined. "I don't care how long it takes me, I will destroy every single thing that gets in my way, and I will get it, you'll have your powers back. No matter what." it wasn't just a promise, it was a vow, and I could tell by the strength of her arms that she would do as she promised.

"Thanks, Arty." my voice was thick with emotion, and I blinked repeatedly to stop the tears from falling. It hurt to know that I wouldn't see her every day- to know that we wouldn't be able to be Artemis and Perseus, the unstoppable Hunters of Olympus, for Zeus knows how long.

She pulled back then, and we smiled at each other, before she disappeared in a soft silver light, leaving me alone with only Chiron for company.

"Everything will be alright, my Lord. You are a God after all, what problems can't you fix by yourself?" I snorted, and ran a hand through my hair tiredly, before shaking my head, and rolling my eyes.

"I may be a God, but I'm no Olympian, and I'm not exactly sure I can fix all of the stuff that's going on right now. Especially with how weak I am." weak, I felt like snorting, 'weak' didn't even begin to describe what I was.

"Perhaps you would like to share it with me? I cannot judge you, and it should be easier for you to tell me your problems." sometimes I forgot how wise Chiron was for his age, but I still shook my head.

"Nah, it's not really the whole not talking about it thing that's bugging me, it's the fact that I can't do anything about it. I'm a God, I'm not use to being weak and helpless." out of the corner of my eye I saw Chiron nod, but he didn't comment on that. Instead he opted to change the subject.

"Where do you want to stay?" he asked, and looked behind me at the Poseidon cabin. "In your father's cabin or in the big house?" he finished, and I followed his gaze to the white marble building that had pearls and diamonds and coral implanted into it. It sounded like a weird combination, but it honestly made the cabin look pretty dang good.

"I'll stay in my father's cabin, with my other siblings, I'm sure he won't mind." Chiron nodded again, and I glanced over at him. "Where is my brother, Theseus, I must talk to him about a few things." Chiron's eyes washed over the camp in thought, before they settled on the archery range, and he nodded to himself.

"In the archery range, the Poseidon cabin has archery for the last half of the day." I tried not to smile deviously, but I must have failed as Chiron chuckled quietly. My dad's other children weren't very good at archery, and the last time Theseus had come to my dad's palace I had totally kicked his butt in it.

"Oh, I bet that's fun for them, huh?"

"I doubt it's fun for anybody." Chiron said seriously, and I snorted. He was probably right, too. "Perhaps you could teach them something, my Lord?" he asked more than stated, and I nodded thoughtfully. My siblings were better with swords, since they weren't really built for archery, but I would try and teach them the best I could.

"I'll try, but I'm not promising anything. Have you seen them with a bow? They're horrible, it's a wonder that I can use a bow so well, yet they can't." Chiron hummed in agreement, and smiled at me again.

"Yes, I've heard that you can even give Lady Artemis a run for her money." I laughed at that, and found myself looking down at Butt-Head, the only thing I had left of Artemis for the time being.

"I'm not that good-I never said that aloud, by the way-, but we do go hunting together a lot. I've learned a lot from her in the past year, a lot more then I could have learned from my father, that's for sure."

"Yes I'm sure that's true, I've heard that Lord Poseidon is not the best at archery, no offense to him of course." he said, glancing up at the sky nervously. I smirked slightly, and reached down to gently pick up the soft and warm wolf. It licked my face, before securely settling into my arms, and nuzzling into my neck.

"No, he really isn't, but he tries and that's good enough."

"You and your father are close." it was more of a statement rather than a question, but I nodded anyways, and glanced fondly down at the wolf. I don't know why I was smiling at Butt-Head, but for some reason I just couldn't resist.

"Yup, closer than most would think we are." I said honestly, and scratched the wolf's head, right in between her ears. She did her weird little purring thing, and licked my neck softly, before biting it, and sending pain sky rocketing through my body.

"Ah!" I exclaimed, and threw Butt-Head onto the ground, making her whimper slightly, before hopping right back up, and biting my toes instead. "What the Hades, you stupid little wolf? What is up with you and those ugly little fangs of yours?" I asked her incredulously, and rubbed my neck while I glared at the demon.

"Is that a habit of hers?" Chiron asked with a huge smile on his face, and I snorted sarcastically.

"Habit? It's a freaking addiction, I swear to Artemis that this thing hates me. Gods that thing bites me every chance it gets, but you know who she doesn't bite?" I asked, and looked up at Chiron. "Artemis!" I exclaimed, not giving him a chance to answer.

Chiron laughed, and shuffled slightly. "I'm sure she doesn't. What, exactly, is her name?" he asked, and looked down at the gray bundle of fur that was still nipping at my feet.

"Butt-Head." I said honestly, and Chiron's head shot up so fast that I heard a crack. The wolf glanced up at me, and 'ruffed' before attacking my feet again.

"Really?"

"I don't know, I wanna name it that just because it's such a little jerk, but I'm sure I'll think of something else. But in the mean time you can call her Butt-Head."

Chiron nodded, and stared down at the dog with sparkling brown eyes. "Oh come on, she can't be that bad!" he said, and I glared down at the wolf as it looked up at me with sparkling golden eyes. I swear they shone with a smug light.

"Whatever, if you like her so much she can stay with you. She's lucky that she was a gift from Artemis, or else I would have sent her furry little butt straight down to Hades." okay, so maybe I wouldn't have killed her, but you get the point. "Anyways, I'm gonna go drop my stuff off, and then I gotta teach some archery, I'll talk to you about the immediate threat after dinner, I'm sure you'll find it very...threatening." I wrinkled my nose, before shouldering my pack once more, and flipping my hair to the side.

"Very well, my Lord." Chiron bowed slightly to me, before turning and cantering to the Big House. I didn't bother to watch him go, seeing as that would be extremely weird considering Chiron's, you know, a centaur, and is like half horse...

No, Percy, just no.

I shook my head, and began my walk to the long and low building that was my father's cabin.

So...yeah.

It sucks, I know, but I wrote this like a year ago or something (it's the real chapter six), and it was just to horrible for me to post. Honestly, it still is, I feel bad for giving you guys this horrible butt wipe of a chapter. It's a filler (yeah another one), but I am trying really hard to write this story, and a real chapter should be out within the next week.

Please, don't comment on how much it sucks, I already feel bad about posting it, but do feel free to add in some of the Ancient Greek heroes, I have the sons of Poseidon covered but you guys can give me your OC's, and they'll probably be mentioned at some point.

If you do give me one, try to keep their name old timey, you know Greek or Roman? And just give me their appearance, try not to use a bunch of Olympian kids, I want ones that are from the Minor Gods too, I need Percy to develop a good connection with them.

Make sure you don't forget their Olympian parent!

Yours in Awesomeness,
