Hi guys! This is my first edited chapter done by wolfman613. I wrote this at a model train show so it's not my best but enjoy!
Shay POV
I crouched next to Theseus in the cover of the trees. We were trying to hide from Percy. We were planning to jump Jason when he came back from his daily cliff dive. We were on Dad's (I call Percy dad because he raised me) island where he trained the guardians. Jason had sent a mini tornado at us the day before and we wanted revenge. We both had ropes so we could tie him up.
"Here he comes" Theseus whispered. We got ready to jump him. When he was right in front of us we jumped.
When we were halfway there we froze. Jason was grinning at us floating in front of him. He was holding us aloft with the air. "Enjoy your swim " he chuckled and flicked his hand.
"Aaaaah" we screamed as we flew through the air and landed in the water.
Percy POV
I sighed as I heard Theseus and Shay scream. I had become a father figure to the two boys as they grew. They had grown as close as twins. Jason, Nico and Alabaster had also grown close through their training.
I rubbed my temples in annoyance. The gods had decided to have a demigod version of the Olympics. I was supposed to choose one of my students to compete. They had also demanded that if a boy won he be invited to join the guardians. I knew that if another danger arose I would need more guardians, but I had picked the ones I had for reasons: They were powerful but would not shirk their duties. The half-bloods at camp were less reliable.
Thunder rumbled above my office and I sighed. Time for an Olympian meeting. I flashed to my throne and groaned: Artemis and Apollo were attempting to shoot each other. Not this again.
"How dare you insult my Hunt by creating your idiot group! Without Father's permission no less" Artemis shrieked.
"So what?" Apollo yelled back "You went after the Ophiartus without permission".
I looked over at Hestia "Can you do the trick with the non destructive fire on their bows".
She nodded and snapped her fingers. Both of the twins' bow erupted in flames. They turned around and glared. Then they went back to their argument. I turned to Hestia and shrugged "Your turn for a brilliant idea".
When everyone had arrived Zeus fired his bolt into the air "Silence" he thundered "The reason for this meeting is that Apollo has created a group similar to the Hunters of Artemis. Artemis wants the group disbanded. We are here to vote on whether he can keep his group or not. You may each put forth your opinions and ideas now starting with our newest Olympian. Perseus you may begin".
I thought about it for a minute then had an idea. "Artemis you are upset because the number of places a female warrior can go to is now less than males correct?". She nodded. "Why don't I expand my guardians then? I can allow females to join as well. Is that satisfactory to both of you?" I asked.
They both nodded reluctantly "However I want a female goddess to help you with the girls. You may pick who but that is my condition" Artemis told me.
I nodded "That is fair".
I looked at Zeus "Can we go now?" I asked.
"Not yet" Zeus replied "I have decided that each group:Hunters, Romans, Greeks and Guardians( no Apollo your club is not going to count it is not a combat club it's a hanging out club) will have two champions rather than one. That way each group will have two chances rather than one. Each group will have twice the chance to win".
I rolled my eyes at Zeus' bad math but nodded. Then flashed out.
