Hello dear readers. I hope you like the story so far and that you'll like this new chapter so let's get to the story.
Serena's POV (Percy's sister from chapter 3)
It's been a while since I've seen my older brother Percy. My lady had often told me stories of his heroic adventures. How he willingly held the sky for her, so that she could defeat the Titan Atlas. He had often visited, as he said "bond" with me and teach me some of the cool things we could do as children of the Earthshaker.
I had gotten better at controlling my powers, but he hadn't visited for quite some time now. Whenever I asked Artemis, she simply said that he was training. I spent the time practicing my hunting ability, which wasn't quite as good as the others. Fortunately, Thalia agreed to train me. I knew she and Percy had a sibling like relationship. She had quickly included me in that relationship and we spent most of our time together, though we didn't fight as much as Percy and she did. However, I knew that Percy would visit today as Lady Artemis had appeared with a new girl, who was introduced to the newcomers, as the former Lieutenant of the hunt. Why she was alive wasn't exactly discussed. Just after Artemis wanted me in her tent to speak. She told me that the reason why Zoë was alive was because of, a girl claiming to be Percy's wife. To say I was shocked would be quite the understatement. The earth, in which the camp laid, rumbled softly and it grew slowly more and more powerful. I took all the girls in Artemis's tent, which included Artemis, Thalia and Zoë, to calm me down. Thalia and I had quickly agreed to interrogate Percy when he showed up.
And when you speak of the devil.
3rd Person POV
There was a flash of fire in the middle of the camp. Out of the fire leaped a pure black lioness. She bared her fangs and then turned her head back towards the fire as if waiting for something.
Soon enough, another figure walked out of the fire. This was, however, not an animal. This was a God, though none of Artemis's hunters knew that.
"Percy!" A stern voice said. It sounded just like the ocean before the storm hit it. The girl with long black hair and piercing green eyes ran towards Percy and quickly had him pinned on the ground with her on top.
"Haha, it's good to see you again, little sister," he laughed with the same smirk he always had. The girl had gotten so used to it that she liked it and felt rather safe when he showed it.
"Why didn't you tell me?" She said back in a loud voice. The other hunters, who had gotten used to seeing Percy when he came to visit his sister, all stopped in their tracks and turned towards him.
"Um…..Exactly what didn't I tell you?" A confused Percy asked back. He of course knew that he hadn't yet told her that he had become a God, but that was one of the reasons he was here.
"That you're married!" She said her voice a mix of both happiness and rage.
Percy simply showed a confused look. "I'm married? To whom?" He said back, dreading what Artemis had told her.
"What so you're saying that Artemis are lying?" Another voice said. Percy recognized that voice as he always did. It was one of his best friends, Thalia.
"No, I'm not saying that, but I'm not married, not yet at least," Percy answered back as he turned his head and looked, upside down, at Thalia.
"So you weren't all lovey-dovey with a beautiful lady during the meeting?" His sister asked in a sly voice.
"Oh Hades, why do you know that?" Percy asked back, as what he had just feared, proved to be true. Artemis had told them what happened at the meeting, including his little session with Chaos.
The two girls laughed harder as they looked at his face. "Seriously, it's not like that" Percy tried to defend himself, it seemed even his lion had begun laughing.
"Well, as long as you tell me when I'll be an aunt then it's fine," Serena jokingly said, though Percy didn't catch the joke. "Um, don't I have a say in this? No one asked if I wanted to get married" Percy said desperately.
"So you're saying you don't want to marry me?" Another voice said in a sad tone, yet still teasingly.
Chaos looked at Percy, awaiting an answer. However, Percy had become speechless.
She walked ever closer, to a now standing Percy. Serena had gotten of him and helped him up when she had appeared.
When she was inched from Percy, she put her hand on his chin. It sent a chill down his spine, however, it was a good chill. Percy could feel her soft skin as she caressed his face. She traced his lips with her finger. She brought her own lips closer to Percy, and when he finally realized it, was all too late. Her lips smashed upon his lips. Her tongue parting his lips. He noticed that his body was paralyzed, he couldn't move even if he wanted. A small voice inside is head said Do you really want this to stop?
Chaos never stopped kissing Percy, she put her arms around his neck and pushed him closer. The kiss seemed to last forever. The hunters were amazed at the beauty of this girl, who had simply walked up and kissed Percy.
Finally Chaos pulled from the kiss, "So do you still not want to marry me?" She asked. Percy was long gone in the bliss.
"Fufu" Chaos laughed as she turned her head and looked at Artemis, who stood shocked outside her tent.
Chaos then blinked at her, jerking Artemis out of her shock,
"What the Hades is going on here?" She yelled mostly at Chaos. Although she did know what was going on, she didn't want to admit it.
Artemis POV
Why won't you just realize you want to do that with him? A voice said inside my head.
Like Hades I will, I am a maiden Goddess I will not fall for a man. I argued back.
You already have, look! The voice said back to me and I was shown a vision.
This is what you truly feel in your heart. The voice said as the image blurred and changed until I could finally see what it was.
I was in my camp, but something seemed different. I didn't move, but the image did, like one of those human movies. The image showed Thalia commanding the hunters, which confused me because I usually did that.
Then the image moved towards my tent and I could hear the sounds of people sleeping. Dread filled my bones as I could hear more than one voice. The image moved past the slips which made out the door in the tent. Inside I saw myself cuddling with a man. However, it wasn't any man. No, this was the greatest of all men, the proof that my view didn't count for all men, well it did for all but him. Perseus Jackson was beside me, his arms around me holding me close. I saw how contend my face looked, how happy I was. As I watched Percy and I wake, we kissed long and hard. What shocked me the most was that it didn't repulse me. Quite the opposite, it stirred emotions inside me, I didn't know I had.
When I was once again back to reality, I saw that Chaos was blinking at me. Before anyone could react, everything turned dark. When I could finally see again, I was on a cliff with the ocean below and the stars and moon above. Then I heard someone land hard. I turned to look, and was surprised to see that it was Perseus.
"Perseus is this your doing?" I asked him already formulating another theory.
He rose and dusted the dirt from his back.
"No, she did," he said as he lifted his head and looked around. The moment I looked into his eyes, something within me clenched tight and ached.
Kiss him you fool! The voice inside my head yelled at me. I stood for a moment until the voice in my head seemed to take control of my body.
I watched as my body moved by itself. It closed the gap between Percy and I. He was a head higher, my head turned to look up at him. He seemed shocked at my actions, but not more than I was.
Before he could say anything, my lips sealed his. The moment my lips hit his, the most amazing feeling washed over me. My body felt light and I could feel my heart beat faster than ever before.
After a while, I felt his hands around my waist pulling me closer. My arms shot around his neck and I deepened the kiss.
"Well, aren't this much better, than to deny your feelings?" Her voice sounded in my head.
"Yeah, and he's mine so back off sister!" I said back, as I felt much more daring than ever before.
"Ho, are you really challenging me?" She said "you are gonna lose so hard, but I might be willing to share him," she laughed inside my head and then she was gone, leaving us to our moment.
Finally, we broke off the kiss. We held onto each other, my head resting on his chest.
"You have to get going soon, if you want to find Lamia," I said finally though I wanted this moment to last forever.
"I know, but we need to talk when I get back," he said back as he kissed me one last time before flashing away in flames.
I smiled and let out a small giggle at what had just happened.
I knew now what I truly felt and I wasn't going to lie. I had to tell my hunters the truth, fearing that they might leave me. However, I couldn't lie to them or myself.
I'm in love with Perseus Jackson.
Hope you liked the chapter, please leave a review and let me now. I hope the next chapter will be longer, as his quest for Lamia begins. So until the next time.
