wow. Lucky you guys two chapters in one day. Rate, comment, review, and most importantly give Jason an answer, Jasper or Jeyna, his confusion annoys me. :)
Dear Artemis,
I know I am a male and all, but I would like for you to do favor for me. my little sister, mortal sister, I can't help but feel worried about her. so was wondering if you can ask her to join the hunt, please. I will do anything for you. she is currently in Columbus, Ohio somewhere. also, this letter will burn up in ten seconds after reading this.
Sincerely,
Zayden, the second current son of Hephaestus that has fire powers
''Hey Artemis! '' Hermes yelled appearing in the throne room infront of the rest of gods.
''What is it Hermes? And stop yelling.'' She replied.
''Got a letter for ya.'' He said handing it to her and sitting on his throne.
''What is it Arty?'' Apollo asked. Suddenly, the letter exploded.
''Hephaestis' son Zayden wanted his mortal sister to join the hunt.''
''Oh, that's why it exploded! That's my boy!'' Hephaestis said proudly.
''I can't let this happen, not again.'' Aphrodite screamed. ''No more hunters, girls need love, and boys to buy them things, and have kids with. You're depriving girls of life experiences they need to have.''
''Need to have? Kids take up too much energy, and do you think those gifts are absolutely free to everyone. Some girls live in horrible homes with abusive families, some girls need a family, and friends and that's what I give them.''
''Hello, Cinderella had a bad family, she found love and a prince.'' Aphrodite interrupted.
''That was fiction. In reality, where these girls ACTUALLY live, the hunters have saved many girls and given them amazing lives. It's their choice and we don't deprive them of anything, Oh My Zeus do you think we're amish or something?'' Artemis yelled.
''Yes, I mean you live in tents and hunt your food, no lady should have to do hard labor.'' Aphrodite countered half heartedly.
''Hard Labor? HARD LABOR? You want the girls to have kids, but that's plenty of labor, in fact, it's called going into labor. And if it weren't for girls' hard labor, you couldn't say things like that. Is this how you honor women, screwing up their lives by pushing the towards boys, is that how you honor your fallen children?''
''ARTEMIS APHRODITE ENOUGH! '' Zeus yelled.
''I have nothing against love, I have things against people who think just like you. That women are play things, fragile, and only on this earth to look beautiful. ''
''I said enough. Your constant bickering is giving me a headache. '' Zeus complained.
''Her daughter Selina was the leader of your Aphrodite brats and understood that better than you.'' Artemis mumbled.
''THAT'S IT!'' Aphrodite yelled. She ran and tackled Artemis. Ares had taught her a few things.
''I SAID ENOUGH!'' Zeus screamed ripping the two goddesses away from each other. ''You two go sit down now.'' They obediently sat on their thrones.
''But father I was going to throw them in the mud pit so they would mud wrestle.'' Ares complained.
''Mud Wrestling!'' Both goddesses shreaked. While Aphrodite just didn't want to be in mud, Artemis was furious because he wanted them to mud wrestle because he thought it was supposedly hot. The glanced at each other and nodded. They pushed Ares into the mud pit he had set up earlier. He slipped and slid through the mud.
''I still hate you.'' Aphrodite began.
''The feeling is mutual, but this was funny.'' The goddesses sat back on their thones. Artemis began writing her letter as Ares struggled to get out of the pit of mud.
Dear Zayden,
It is sweet of you to care about your sister and want her to join the hunt, but ultimately it is her decision. If she can see through the mist and would like to join the hunt, she may. I am always happy to accept new huntresses. You can not force her to though. Women need to be free to make their own decisions. If she has made her choice, contact me through an Iris message.
Sincerely,
Lady Artemis.
P.S. Your says hi father, and Ares is hilarious when trying to escape a pit of mud.
