Thank you for your continued support and reviews! Without you guys, I think I would probably stop writing.
Disclaimer, I don't own PJO... Yet. Mwahahahaha!
MYSTERY POV!
Arggg! It can't be! My plan was flawless! And yet, I was ruined by that stupid Goddess of the Hunt! Percy was supposed to turn against the Gods, not join them!
Stupid spawn of Poseidon. And if he regains his memory, all Hades will break loose. He'll remember the part I played... And he'll expose us.
But of course, we're not down and out yet. We still have the secret weapon.
Yes, that'll teach him a lesson. Good thing Hecate owes me a favor.
I flashed into Lycaon's throne room, to see him sitting there, with his guards. He clapped, signaling his guards to go outside the doors. He turned to me expectantly.
"So, what news of Percy Jackson." I gritted my teeth. "He has allied himself with the Goddess of the Hunt. He is attempting to find his way here." Lycaon the roared in rage and growled.
"Damn Artemis! Good thing our position is strategic. There is no way the goddess could help him here." He smirked as he laid back on his velvet throne. "Send for Hecate. Make the adjustments." I nodded and flashed out.
POV CHANGE PERCY
Me and Artemis journeyed north for the rest of the day. It was well known that the werewolves were all in the north, but no one dared go there.
For one, the gods' powers were severely weakened in the north, and two, the werewolves were a powerful force by themselves. Even without the serious disadvantage to gods and demigods.
But, the fact that I was a werewolf and that Artemis could turn into a wolf, helped our chances. We caught another deer for dinner, and sat beside a fire. Artemis sat next to me, eating her venison, when I spoke.
"Artemis, when we go north, won't you lose your powers?" She looked at me and nodded.
"Most of them. I should still have my natural abilities, like shapeshifting and archery powers. But, not flashing and conjuring stuff." I nodded. She was taking a serious risk coming with me.
But, something told me that she wouldn't leave. I looked up to the sky. It was starting to get dark, as the sun lowered below the tree level.
"The transformation will come soon." I said. Artemis nodded.
"Don't worry, I will help you control yourself." I smiled at her and thanked her. Something in the back of my mind kept annoyingly scraping against my consciousness.
Me and her had something before I went missing. But then the logical part of my mind said. No, I had a girlfriend, no a fiancé, before I went missing.
But I was convinced I had some kind of feeling for the Goddess. But, even if such a feeling blossomed, it could never be.
I was a werewolf.
She was a maiden Goddess.
It could never work.
I saw the sun descend and set down the meat. I walked out into the woods.
I felt the sensation run over me and the pain creeped up my spine. I knelt down as my bones changed position and fur grew out of my skin.
I could feel my body taking the shape of a four legged beast. I fell to the ground as the transformation ended, my body getting used to the lack of pain. I laid there for a while, until I heard a rustling come from the woods.
I bolted up and growled in that direction. Shyly, a beautiful white wolf stepped out of woods, cautiously walking towards me.
I stood my ground, then noticed the wolf's eyes.
Silver.
Artemis.
I softened and nodded to her. She then nodded and started running through the woods. I followed her, not going at my full speed, because I could easily outrun her smaller frame.
I evened out with her and we picked up the pace. After a few minutes, we broke out of the forest, into an open field, beautifully illuminated by the full moon.
Artemis turned to me and gave me a challenging look. I nodded and she bolted across the field. I charged after her, surprised at how fast she was going. I eventually caught up to her and passed her up.
She glared and playfully tackled me to the ground. I knocked her off of me, albeit gently, and laid down for a breather.
She laid down about a foot away from me and stared at the moon. Then, suddenly, thunder rumbled and the moon was blocked by storm clouds. This far up north, getting rained on wouldn't be a pleasant experience.
We both stood and ran for the tree line. We saw a small cave in a rocky outcropping, and Artemis pointed to it with her head.
I nodded and we ran towards the cave. By the time we got there, we were thoroughly soaked. We both shook off as much rain as we could and laid down.
I wasn't too cold, but Artemis had a lighter coat and was shivering. I moved over to her and laid down next to her. She looked at me thankfully and shuffled closer to my warm coat.
I sighed and laid my head on my paws and closed my eyes.
Big mistake.
I hope I satisfied your need for Pertamis.
