SoftWare: Sorry for the wait, guys.
Artemis: At least the wait is over.
SoftWare: True.
Computer: And now, the conclusion.
Chapter Ten
I Get Promoted
I woke up in the Artemis Cabin, on my bunk. I began to wonder if my quest had been a dream, until I saw Phoebe
putting a damp cloth on my forehead. "Ah, so the Son of Artemis awakens." "No need to be dramatic." She smirked.
Bianca and the other Hunter we rescued walked in. "I thought I should introduce you two. This is Lieutenant Zoe
Nightshade, Thalia's predecessor." "You must be very proud of Thalia," I commented. Zoe smirked. "So thou art the Son
of Artemis." I looked at her. "New English, okay? I can't speak Ye Olde." "Sorry. So you are the Son of Artemis." "Yes."
"What's your choice of weapon?" "Sword, although I am fairly decent with a bow." "I see." "Hunters." They faced
Artemis, who had just walked in. "I would like to speak to my son, privately." They nodded and left. "Firstly, I would
apologize for their curiosity." "Curiosity?" "Secondly, congratulations on completing your first quest." I nodded.
"Thirdly, I do have something to tell you. Because you are my son, you have power over my Hunters." "Limited?" She
raised an eyebrow. "What? I'm trying to be considerate." "There is no need. They have all agreed to follow you into any
battle. While I will command you, I am the only one who can." "What's my rank?" "I was thinking of captain." "If you're
gonna go there, we need to make new uniforms." She smirked. "That may be a good idea. I'm beginning to sense
disatisfaction amongst my Hunters." I chuckled. "And I am changing the rules of the Hunt. Instead of swearing off men,
I will allow my Hunters to have one boyfriend at a time. No cheating." "That I like." She smirked at me. "And you can
get a girlfriend." "I'm sorry, do you know me?" "Have you looked in a mirror within the time you have been awake,
since you were unconscious for three days." It was all I could do to keep from yelling. "Three days?" She nodded.
"Normally, Tori was the one who slept in." "She was a Daughter of Iris, in case you were wondering." "How do you
know?" "She and I switched off the role of Penny Bicek." "Oh." for lack of anything else to say. "Here." She handed me
a mirror. I looked into it. The first thing I noticed, my eyes, which had been brown before, were now silver. My acne
was gone (long story, don't ask), I had no sign of facial hair, and What body fat I had (which wasn't very much, but a
small amount had existed) was gone. I also felt more energized, like I could do all kinds of tricks. "My Blessing. You
have earned it. You have a long road ahead, Shawn. We will walk it together." "I have a question." She raised an
eyebrow. "Do I have siblings?" "A few. They are scattered across the United States, with one exception, whom you have
met. You call him G, I believe." "Gavin?" She nodded. "My first command is for you to write to them, tell them about
your quest, and tell them to come here, to Camp Half-Blood." I nodded.
So, my younger siblings, if you did get this letter, and are reading it, I do invite you to come to Camp Half-Blood in New
York. It's where the Delphi Strawberry Services farm is. (Mortal disguise, don't ask). You'll always have a bunk in Cabin
Eight, especially since I'm going to remodel it. Also, enclosed (separately) is a list of what to bring to camp. The
Olympians can take us from our Mortal homes, from all our tricks and toys. But one thing they can't take away?
We are the children of Artemis.
