Disclaimer: I don't own Percy Jackson
THANKS GUYS, I'm now on 32 reviews which is better than what I asked for so thanks for your support
To be honest I didn't think I'd get to chapter five, let alone chapter eleven, so thanks guys, because if you hadn't fav,followed,reviewed or read I would have probably quit this story
Oh and the animal suggestions so far are a:
Narwhal (1 vote)
and a Wolf (1 vote)
keep voting for what Percy's animal should be or if he should have more then one - also start reviewing names, I thought maybe, Fengari which means moon in Greek, but keep piling me with ideas.
Now for the story:
Capture the Flag
While the number of the hunters was well lower than the campers, the campers were a side of around a hundred while the hunters had thirty members, so that is odds of roughly one hunter:three campers but for some hunters they have to take four campers, but then again the hunters had an advantage. They'd been blessed by Artemis so were stealthy, quick and quiet. Their skills with their bows easily outmatched the best Apollo campers, and they had a secret weapon, one who goes by the name of Percy.
The plan was simple, Percy, Diane and Phoebe were on defence - trust me they didn't need more then that. Kelsey, Millie, Grace and some of the others were 'middlers' they stuck to the middle, taking down campers and defending or attacking when and where they were needed, the wild cards. Zoe was on attack with a couple other hunters including Harriet, their job was easy, get the flag, hurt campers, demoralise the campers. Easy.
Percy was sat in the tree with Phoebe who had her bow out ready. Diane was on the ground with her bow out - baiting the campers. Diane and Phoebe would shoot the campers with one of their many special arrows and Percy would wash them away with a wave of water. All hunters were equipped with seven different kinds of arrows (not including the normal, boring one) - they really had to win this game, for pride's sake. There was the fart bomb arrow, which gave off a odorous smell, the hunters all had a spell put on them by Millie, their resident daughter of Hecate so they couldn't smell them, they also couldn't be affected by the sonic boom or light arrows. The sonic boom made a loud, very unpleasant noise while the light arrows blinded you for a couple of seconds, they made it be as though you were looking into the sun. There were the ice arrows, made by Percy and Grace - a daughter of Khione - they would make you so cold that it would be hard to move and your fingers would go numb, there were the exploding arrows, which was pretty obvious, they exploded things. There was a dark arrow which obviously made it so dark you couldn't see then there was the Hephaestus arrow, if you remember the good old days when there was a bit more actual rebelling on Olympus you'll remember when Hephaestus made a net that no god or goddess could get out of and imprisoned (he'd imprisoned three gods by the way, Hera for the plain reason of her stating he was disgusting and then encouraging, ok forcing, Zeus to throw him of Olympus - which by the way is why mortals believe Hera threw him off, it was Zeus but Hera made him and Zeus not wanting to look bad said Hera did it, and who'd disobey the king of the gods, to be honest I don't get why he didn't cover up the affairs, but anyhow, - he also caught Ares and Aphrodite doing interesting things which required nudity, back to the point...) the arrow would capture the target in a net like the ones Hephaestus had made, the victim wouldn't be able to escape.
Percy looked up after hearing quick successive whizzing of arrows cutting though the air like a knife through butter. He saw Phoebe and Diane furiously firing at the campers. As Percy turned to look at his opponents he whistled in awe at the amount. There was around thirty all charging three. Percy closed his eyes and concentrated, focussing on his powers. Suddenly a huge wave towering around four metres tall swept through the forest and charged the demigods. When the water subsided all the demigods were on the floor, still being pelted by arrows, coughing up water and wheezing for breath. Percy closed his eyes and concentrated again. The water which was lying on the floor in a large puddle suddenly froze encasing around half of the demigods feet in it as well. The water in their clothes, hair and dripping down their skin all suddenly froze. Phoebe and Diane looked at the source in awe, Percy was sitting still beads of sweat flowing down his face. "Arrows." He panted, Diane nodded and started firing again, Phoebe quickly taking her lead. Soon all the thirty demigods were captured or immobile, either unconscious or so scared they couldn't move, or literally couldn't move because they were incased in nets and, or nets. Phoebe grinned and high five a still concentrating Percy. Once he realised the water was unnecessary he sighed deeply and released his control. The ice quickly returned to its natural water state. "That was amazing Percy, your powers over water have grown immensely." Phoebe gushed and Diane agreed, though in a slightly less fan-girlish way.
"Thanks, I've practiced loads with dad." Percy blushed from the praise as he replied modestly. Phoebe ruffled his hair and they smiled happily, then pumped their fist up in the air and cheered loudly as they heard shouting from within the forest - mainly Harriet chanting 'We are the Champions.' The three laughed and jumped down from where they perched. They ignored the bitter campers and didn't bother helping them as they jogged past to where the other hunters celebrated. As they reached the area Phoebe immediately went up to Zoe and Harriet and enthusiastically praised Percy who modestly and awkwardly stood back, ignoring their looks of awe out of embarrassment not rudeness. "Well," the centaur sighed unhappily, "That's another win to the hunters, well done to you. The score rests at-" He began before being happily intervened by a hyper Harriet, who piped up "Seventy-one to none." She sang gayly like a baby bird in the morning. The campers groaned and stomped off angrily moaning at each other for their fault in the loss. The hunters stayed celebrating in the middle of the forest for another half an hour, amidst the lively nature they were so used to when hunting. "Alright girls, to the cabin." Zoe ordered causing Percy to groan, Zoe just smirked and led her hunters to the cabin. They all sat around the roaring flames, roasting marshmallows on the pre-prepared sticks. They were all lively celebrating their victory exuberantly praising another and awkwardly receiving others' exuberant praise. Towards the end of the celebration Zoe raised up a marshmallow cooked to perfection, she waited for a quickly accepted silence. "To the hunt!" She cheered and the hunters laughed before repeating her chant and swallowing their marshmallows whole.
I'm sorry for how short it is - I have a sports free weekend which won't be writing free as I hope to get at least one if not two chapters updated. Thank you and please review. (Thanks for the ninety odd people who have followed and the fifty odd who've favourited this story as well as a big cheers to the reviewers and a thanks to the readers.)
