Where the hell am I. The last thing I remember is that conversation with that mystery man, saying something about having fun in a new universe. Da F***. What did he mean by new. Wait, am I in a tent, bound by my wrists and feet. The hell, this is some kinky 18+ rated shit. Also, why the fuck is this tent so silvery. Also, why am I on the ground when there is a cot right there. I'm wearing my damaged Marta armour, so at least I got some defence. It also looks like my utility belt is there. I did steal Batman's electric shock idea after all, so it should still be filled with goodies. But a lot of my carbyne got blown off due to the explosion.
"Is thee finally awake. Thee tooketh thou art time? Who art thou and what is they purpose here" - ?
What the, who said that. Squirming around on the ground, I'm able to glance at the speaker. Curious. No. Nonononono. Those dark brown eyes, the slightly upturned nose, that copper-coloured skin and that fucking silver circlet braided into the top of that long dark hair. This tall, graceful, and god-damn gorgeous beauty that looks like a Persian princess is serious bad news. Despite being such a beauty, she holds such a regal expression. And that cold, proud look in her eyes. She's even emitting a silvery aura.
"Speaketh why had thee attack us with they wolf and dared to ent'r this campeth. Knoweth that what thee says holds the key to a quick death, 'r a gruesome one" - ?ë N?h?s?ad?
"No, nonono, Hell No." I whisper before rapidly saying "NoNotThisUniverse. WhyDidItHaveToBeThisUniverse. WhatTheHell, There'sAGodDanmReasonIWantedToGoToTheBokuMyHEroAcademiaUniverse. NotOnlyIsItSWayBetterThanMost, ButThere'sNoInsanePowerScaling. ThisIsSeriouslyMyPunishment, NoI'llHaveToHangAroundAnnabeth. She'sGoingToLiterallyWantMyLifeStoryAndEplainationForMyPowers. OneOfTheWorstCharactersInThisWholeUniverse –"
(Author: Shiro Kawa or Rio then mutter about his life problems and shit on this universe. Luckily, he made sure he whispered this and was talking at speed that even this girl would find hard to listen to)
–" Wait. You said I attacked with a wolf. Did you mean 'Wolf' wolf or just regular wolf. No what if it's Wolf. Please take me to the wolf. Where is he, is he alright?" I beg making sure to talk up and slow down.
"What the, nay I shall not bid they about thy pet. Answer mine own question, what art thee doing h're" - ?ë N?h?s?ad?
"Look a distraction?" I quickly yell out.
She's shocked allowing me to easily undo my leg bindings.
"Did thee bethink I'll falleth for yond trick." - ?ë N?h?s?ad?
"No, but it still shocks you that you didn't notice this." I say, making sure to breath in deeply, giving a cheeky grin and then breathing out a large blast of air.
This launches her out of one side of the tent and me out the other. Mid-air I rotate my body, making sure I could start sprinting after. I also freed my wrist bindings. They placed my prison cell (tent?) in the middle of their camp. Strategically, an excellent move. Makes it so I can't just run away to a nearby forest area and actually fight my way through the entire camp. They would also remove equipment, stripping them (literally) of any defence against their primary weapon. The bow. Really, why even use a bow. They could use guns, or at least a hunting rifle, with magical rounds. I mean, I'm pretty sure a few people could make a magical cartridge that uses magic or energy or something to refill on ammo. But I digress, they would also use hunting knives against me. As well as a few spears. They were always used for hunting since olden days. Usually, people would need the grasp their bearings, however I know exactly where to go. Along the way I see a little girl, probably 8 years old. She must be pretty new to the hunt, so I bring her along. No, I'm not a lolicon. First of all, I'm 10 years old physically (Strange cause I was 9 but whatever. The mystery man must have made me 10 for some reason, although technically I think I'm in my 30's). Second of all, she's insurance. I make sure to use air-bending to carry her along. I think she's terrified, or she's having fun. I don't really know or care. As I come up to the battleground, I could see Wolf putting in a little work. It seems like he's completely dominating, pissed the human with him got taken. But in reality, his lifeforce is weakening. He looks like a porcupine with the large number of arrows in his hide. I act quickly. Making sure to knock down as many hunters as I can as I sprint closer to him. Making sure to strike those I couldn't reach with my arms and legs with air-bending. However, with me sprinting, punching/kicking anyone near me, levitating a girl and making sure not to trip, it was a tall order. As I reach Wolf, I create an air barrier, repelling arrows and stopping anyone from getting too close. I then cause the barrier to expand outwards. This pushes everyone a fair bit away. Then I quickly create a stone dome entrapping me, the 8-year-old and Wolf. I make sure to reinforce the dome which is 6 meters tall (from centre) and has a 12-meter diameter. Plenty of space. Wolf shrinks down from 5 meters in length to 2 meters. I then stop levitating the girl inn the air causing her to land on her butt. I cocoon her in earth, making her look like she's poking her head through an eggshell. I then light up inside the dome with a Ki ball.
Although I made a temporary shelter, Wolf is still in danger. Being exhausted, I check my belt as well as pockets. Pretty sure I have something. no dice. I kinda hoped that the mystery man restocked it. I quickly materialise a Senzu bean. I caught the child's face of wonder as I seemingly created something out of nothing. I made a shh gesture before feeding it to Wolf. He's instantly healed. All thanks to Dragon Ball's overpowered drug.
"Wolf what the hell happened while I was out? Did you pick a fight." I ask, sensing a powerful aura enclosing the area.
Wolf answers.
"No 'human cubs', as you put it, do not come out of eggs. I made that to make sure she doesn't cause trouble. And stop avoiding the question, what the hell happened?" I say, ending with an exasperated sigh.
Wolf answers.
"So, they initiated the fight. Sounds like them, also how was it? You know stalling for time and making sure not to seriously injure anyone until I made my escape and go to your position." I say with a grin.
Wolf replies.
"Yes, I know they can hear our conversation" I say to Wolf before addressing the people outside "Just so you know, I have a hostage, so don't try to blow us up. And do try to teleport in. I created and am maintaining several air barriers that will seriously hurt. Also, you attacked first, and we want compensation of monetary value."
"My name is Artemis Goddess of the Hunt. Who are you and why have you come here and disturbed my hunt" – Artemis
I quickly cover the small girl I a sound barrier. I also put a phone in front of her with funny YouTube videos playing.
"I call bullshit. You group of evil lolis attacked my Wolf while I was unconscious without provocation, kidnapped me and then interrogated me as they where killing my best friend." – Rio
"Liar, your wolf was started this fight." – Hunter 1
"Really. By the way, his name is Wolf don't call him wolf. I can tell the difference. Also, he's highly intelligent capable of using a computer as well as communicating with me. And he tells me that he was warning you not to come closer, unsure weather or not this human armed to the teeth was a threat or not to me; the guy who was clearly out cold. You noticed this and reacted to this warning by aiming at him. He then proceeded to growl at you, causing your friends second to the left of you to aim at him as well-" – Rio
"Who can you possible know this?" – Hunter 1
"Wolf is talking me through this?" – Rio – "Now let me continue. Your other friend decided to run off and alert the others, or that's what he assumes. They came in numbers and kept assaulting Wolf. He reacted to this by staying his ground and protecting me. However, one of you managed to take me away, and I assume from Wolfs description it was the girl I yeee- I mean launched. Wolf was unable to chase without seriously injuring you hunters 'Lady' (sarcastic) Artemis. That's also the reason why Wolf didn't bite down or crus any of your hunters' ribcages and only swiped or tackled them. Any hunter worth their salt would know that this was abnormal wolf behaviour and question whether or not he was a threat. And I know you weren't hunting him for food. Wolf and I know you have vast amounts of deer and other animal meat as well as nuts and berries. Meaning you were hunting for fucking sport. By the way, there's a sound barrier around the kid, and she's watching funny YouTube videos."
There's a long pause of silence.
"You have no proof of this. Therefore, I am forced to believe you're guilty-" – Artemis
"You want evidence. Well aside from your entire girl scout group fidgeting uncomfortably after they realised, they are in the wrong, Wolf has video evidence on his collar. Do you have a phone, or computer or something. It doesn't really matter which one. I'll toss you the collar." - Rio
"Hmph, then pass me this so-called collar." – Artemis
I could hear the amused tone in her voice. Suddenly I could feel some magic in the area. I quickly make an opening in the dome and launch the collar outside. I already had a copy of the video on a USB. I then close back of the dome. I also create some orange juice box for the girl with a long bendy straw. I then use earth bending to create a pedestal for the drink to rest on. At first, she's suspicious, but then she tries it. Her face lights up. I then spend a few minutes waiting before I felt a presence.
"You know that I know that you sent 4 girls scouts to flank me from the left and sent one behind me, right. So now that you have seen the video, you know that you're in the wrong." – Rio
"Yes, it is regrettable that one of my hunters decided to act without thinking, causing this whole predicament. However, you are in the wrong. For you are the one that has suddenly appeared outside of our camp." – Artemis
"Look, I believe that you are the type of person that really doesn't like to admit you or one of your girl scouts is in the wrong. Mostly because almost al of you are anti-male Nazi and believe that females are the superior gender and like to treat everyone else as trash. But don't start acting dense. You are clearly in the wrong. Furthermore, you really are the definition of ignorant and discrimination. Ready to hate me just be of my gender, something I have no control over. Only because most of you made shitty life choices and instead of learning from them, you decided to act like children and remain as children. Artemis, are you close to your brother?"
"Why the sudden question?" – Artemis
"So, you're not. Wow. Based on the myths, Apollo can hear and see everything under the sun; am I right" – Rio
"That is correct." – Artemis
"And you haven't gotten close to him and further pushed him away. Who am I kidding, I know so. Even though he seriously needed you, he never burdened you. That's actually pretty noble of him." -Rio
"Please, he's a womanising man. A pig." – Rio
I could detect a trace amount of doubt. Time to strike with my critical.
"By the way lady Artemis. My Wolf says he can literally smell that the hunter that attacked him has recently been mating with someone. You know, the hunter that called me a liar (Hunter 1)." – Rio
"How dare you accuse one of my hunters of breaking my oath. You shall suffer from this." – Artemis
Whoa, I swear I could feel slight tremors in the ground. She's pissed.
"I swear it. Wolf's sense of smell is impeccable, he's able to pick up a week-old scent easily. It's due to his quirk, which I don't fully understand. Two days ago, did you send her into a nearby town or decided to set up camp nearby. Near enough where she could easily spend a few hours mating, as Wolf put it, and make an excuse that she was taking care of something important." – Rio
"Milady, Hunter Hale has been sneaking off. At first, I first I though nothing of it, but now… If anything, we could make her swear on the river Styx" - ?ë N?h?s?ad?
"Nice thinking Nightshade. Also, what good is swearing on the river Styx? I'm pretty sure I'm not from around here. And what could a river do." -Rio
"Silence Boy, for you know no of what you speak of. Breaking an oath made upon the river Styx will grant you a quick but painful death by lightning if lucky, or a fate worse than death if not. Furthermore, I would immediately know if a hunter were to break their oath." – Artemis
"Have to disagree with you, your magic oath is ancient. Meaning that people had a long time to test the limits of this as well as create loopholes. Also didn't a bunch of gods fool your magic. So, they could create a tool that blocks your 'oath magic' from alerting you. Just to convince to you that I have no spiteful intentions and telling you that I wholly believe what I am saying. I'll take some drastic measures" – Rio – "I swear on the River Styx that I wholly believe that hunter 1 aka Hunter Hale has broken her oath and has some how hidden this using some sort of magic or device or through the help of a god/goddess. Or that Artemis's magic oath is faulty."
There's a clap of thunder even though I could have sworn that there wasn't a single cloud.
"While. I haven't died of painful lightning… so I guess I'm either royally screwed or am correct. You should go and ask your hunter to swear now." – Rio
"See my hunters, this is why men are truly foolish animals. Hunter Hale, do you swear on the River Styx that you had not forsaken my oath and that you have not slept with another man."
I quickly open a hole in the dome. I really want to see this. Oh, she looks absolutely terrified.
"Do you swear on the River Styx, speak up my Hunter… please." – Artemis
Suddenly, hunter hale I assume, collapses on her knees, and starts bawling her eyes out.
"Ha called it" I shouted from the safety of my dome. All the hunters glare at me, mostly out of malice because they are confused by what's happening.
"I'm sorry my goddess, it was a moment of weakness. Some monsters surrounded me and I –" says Hunter Hale
"Bullshit." I shout before following up with "I can tell that your faking this act. Your heart rate says otherwise. As well as your Princess Malty act is so fucking obvious. You've been doing this for a long time. How long have you had that chain. It seems to give of magic that's familiar to you. This is Greek mythology right. So, is your father… Eros the god of Love? No, how about Aphrodite?"
Suddenly a few of them glare at me.
" I'm on a role. Artemis focus on her necklace, it's the one with the broken heart symbol. It's loaded with what is foreign magic to me. But you should find it familiar if I'm right." I sprout quickly ensuring that this Ex-Hunter is unable to talk her way out.
Begrudgingly, Artemis complies with my idea and decided to focus on the necklace. She seems surprised for half a second, before her face contorts in rage.
"How dare you break my oath, Hale. Daughter of Aphrodite, has this been going on since you entered the hunt?" Artemis thunders
Suddenly Hale, stands up and gives of an expression that similar to one you would get when your parents tell you to stop playing and do some work. Well it true. That's literally what she looks like.
"Aww, looks like the jig is up. Wow did it take you a long time to realise. I would've gotten away with I too if it weren't for that meddling kid. And his dog too.- " – Rio
"Stop ruining my childhood you monster, I'm only 10 years old" I scream.
I quickly put up an air barrier. Deflecting an arrow heading straight for my right eye. I give an ear to ear grin. Further pissing of Zoë Nightshade as she gets ready to fire a few more arrows at me.
"My mother and I had a great plan and wanted to make you a laughingstock in front of the other Olympians. I agreed, mostly due to the immortality. Although, I didn't plan on getting found out this far into it, to think I would last only thirty years. Well it was a good run. I just want you to know that you people are horrible. Really, why do you hate men so much? You are so mis-" – Ex hunter
"Lieutenant Nightshade take her away. I'll deal with this harlot after deal with the 'male'" – Artemis
"I'm sensing a lot of distrust. I swear on the River Styx that I will not attack anyone without reasonable provocation and if you hear out my story before you decide what to do with me. Also, that you will not harm me or capture me during our talk, and I'll let my captive go. Sorry about the remarks I made, but you were killing one of my few friends, so I was a bit agitated. Do you agree to my terms?" – Rio
"You shouldn't swear on the River Styx so casually, mortal." – Artemis
"I don't."- Rio
"Very well, as to not drag thigs on needlessly, I hereby agree to your terms" – Artemis
Seriously another clap of thunder. I know all about this as I read about the Rick Riordan. Well I read through the first 3 books. Then pretty much skimmed read through the rest. Mostly so I could read all the cooler awesome parts. Plus, I'm pretty sure my memory wish is bull. Because it should be able to clearly remember each word on every single page of any of Riordan's books, but I can't. I wanna refund. I wouldn't be surprised if the mystery man did this on purpose, so I'll have more of a challenge, or be much more entertaining. Anyway, I have to act like I have no idea what the hell's going on.
"You're the goddess Artemis, daughter of Zeus, right. Why's your father creating thunder even though there aren't any clouds. Does the mortals, as you put it, find it strange or do they know all about the god. Also is he mad at me. Because lightning hurts… it hurts a lot." I say, in a quizzical tone.
I proceed to lower the earth dome and get rid of the air barriers. I also free the girl. She's startled that her earth had just split in to and fell to her side. I whisper to her that she could keep the phone. Which is a cool gift as it has infinite mobile data, calls, and texts. It's also better than anything on the market for at least the next 30 years and then some. She seemed pretty happy and eve hugged me. Suddenly my instinct ho haywire. After hunting and practicing for half your life, especially as a child, you develop a sort of sixth sense. I swivel my head to see all the hunters giving me cold, blood thirst glare. I swear if looks could kill… Especially the one closest to Nightshade. She looks like a fucking sadist, ready to treat me like a masochist play toy. I'm not even sure that analogy works, but she looks like she could treat me like that, hunter of Artemis or not. Artemis and Nightshade are looking at me with interest. Or with what I believe is interest. They have a mean poker face. I could have sworn Artemis said something along the lines of "What a curious Other-worlder." But then again, I may be shocked and a bit delirious, as I realise that this I the first time I'm surrounded by so many people. And that they all are paying me attention and there all women that look ready to castrate me. In my past life, I wasn't much of a social butterfly. I mean I could act calm and collected and even give some small talk. But I was a really anxious person. Tending to give off a cold and hard exterior to my peers. But my few friends knew about this and we had fun times. Speaking of fun times, I definitely remember that I wasn't a virgin in my past life. But still, I'm having serious anxiety. I quickly back up and grab Wolf to calm myself down. I then proceed to climb on his back and speak into one of his ears. He grows to 3-meters and we walk over to the hunters of Artemis.
"Hmph boy, it seems that you are rather anxious." She says in an amused tone.
"It's not nice to make fun of people's anxiety. This is literally the large and longest time that a group of people has paid attention to me. Not to mention that Nightshade, over there, is seventh girl/woman that I have actually held a decent conversation with me and that was an interrogation. I'm not really a 'people' person. In a fight or an otherwise life or death situation, I can handle and power through it . Because since I was 6, I've been fighting my way through the wilderness getting stronger. This is partially due t the trauma my mother caused me. So, I'm sorry that I might be having a MINATURE PANAC ATTACK." I say, ending with a shout. I then proceed to hyperventilate for a few second, before calming myself down. Guess I must have remembered my trauma a bit too vividly.
A few minutes pass as I try to get a grip on myself. Realising what tangent that I just went off on, I actually feel a slight blush coming on. I literally, try so hard to give a straight face, but also hide my blush. Ending with a few girls giggling at me. Jess, the man-haters are feeling sorry for me. God damn it. I never though that my lack of people skills would cause this. It worked fine for Vegeta. Tis literally causes me to hide my head in Wolf's neck, burying my face in his fur. Correct me if I'm wrong but I could feel wolf give off a face palm with is paw. The hell, even my best friend is pitying me. To end it the kid I've taken hostage pats the back of my head before stroking me. To do this, Wolf actually lied down. I could literally feel that amount of effort it took for all the hunters to give a relatively straight face; and just not fall into a laughing fit. Even Artemis find my pain hilarious. Sadist goddess. The only one who actually cares for my wellbeing is the kid. Mt guardian angel. I swear I'll repay you.
"Now that your done with your… breakdown, I believe that we have something to discuss Other-Worlder." – Artemis
"Well, guess the through can't hurt. My name is Shiro Kawa, son of Shiro Yama and… Shiro Teichi. I'm born in Britain, but currently live in japan. Or at least I did. I from Earth, just not your Earth. My guess is that the mystery man I met must have sent to this world. He said I should find out more when I wake up. When you found me, di I have anything like a sticky-note on me?" I ask.
"Milady, I found an envelope on the male when we capture him. It was in one of his pockets." – Zoe Nightshade
"Can I have my letter, please." – Rio
No dice, she ignores me; without so much as giving me a glance.
"Hmm, hand him the letter. It is addresses to him, is it not." – Artemis
I receive the letter, which she tossed take a shuriken. I f I wasn't careful, she would've given me a paper cut. I open the letter, it basically talked about how I got sent to the Percy Jackson world.; yeah, no duh. It also said that my creation magic ability would be given a nerf, making it harder to use. Craaaap. He also nerfed my memory, making it harder to remember the books. Fuck this man, you literally stole my wish. At least he didn't limit my bending. He also told me not to reveal unnecessary information and that he and the fates are in on this. I'm not sure that this means I could change stuff or if I'm incorporated of this. It also says that I'm an anomaly in this world. He also says I can 'die' but I would probably reincarnate with my memories intact. But I would rather not go through that. Apparently, what he said to me in the interrogation room was meant for other me. The one still in BMHA. I'm fucking jealous. Wait so I'm basically trapped here. Meaning my plan to marry ***. Well there are some people I wouldn't mind. But still. Also, it says that the ages here are kinda weird. What the hell does that mean. Well whatever, I could still make this work. Sadly, the letter then goes on to how beings were alerted of my presence. Meaning Kronos is wondering about me. The fates also want me to go to camp half blood.
"Basically, the fates and a high-ranking entity decided to send me to this world for some reason. And that I got split in two while other me is in his world. Would explain why I feel like I'm at half power. But anyway, it says in this letter that I have to go to some sort of Geek camp. Sorry I meant Greek." – Rio
Just as I finished saying that the letter is set aflame with an ethereal flame. Suddenly, I feel as if something is being branded into my back. I let out a quick shrink due to the unsuspecting pain. The pain causes me to fall off of Wolf and start withering on the ground. My fall and cry of pain startles the kid next to me, causing her to jump. Immediately, all the hunters ready their weapons. As the pain lets up, I stop withering. Fuck sake that hurts.
"False alarm, nothing happened. It seems as if the letter came with a gift. I felt as if someone, wanted to brand me. Think it was the mystery man." I say, hoping that they would calm down. "So, can anyone give me the direction to this camp. Unless you guys want to give me an escort. But in reality, I doubt that you really want that. The fates told me to head there, and it's somewhere on long island, New York. Just tell me where New York. Never mind, I'll just use Boogle Maps."
"Actual you mean google maps." – Random Hunter
"Is Google a multinational, publicly-trade organisation built around the company's hugely popular search engine. It's also a company that sells personal data to other companies and even the government so that they could influence and manipulate the sheeple. Am I right?" I ask
"Well, yes." – Same random Hunter
"I'll be fine. Nice knowing you guys, meet you on the flip." – Rio
I turn around walking away from them.
"Oh wait, I almost forgot. I was raised to gift those who are of equal status or high with alcohol. That is if I am to make a good impression. Luckily, I have just the bottle. I've actually made it myself. Also, the bottles enchanted with magic, so it actually holds 100 litres of wine. Think this one should be a fine choice. It's not too strong so you could share it with your hunters if you wish. Usually I we would have a drink, but I think it's for the best that we don't." I say.
I then pull out a bottle from seemingly nowhere and toss it too her. Artemis catches it with easy. She begins studying the bottle with interest.
"Don't worry about poison, it seems like a stupid idea to hand poison to one of the Olympian council members. And if your wondering about how I know so much about Greek myths, they existed in my world. You guys probably adapted to a fall in followers and humans subconsciously remember and kinda idolise you. Also, Wikipedia and media would immortalize anyone into the minds of the populous." – Rio
I then proceed to walk off heading to the nearest town. Actually, I'm heading in a random direction. I decided to stop after a couple hundred meters and ask a tree spirit were to go. At first, I thought that it would be a flop. And that'll seem like a crazy person. But the tree spirit eventually answered and guided to Milford. From there it was a simple matter of me checking in at the Myer country motel. I paid the price for one night and took a nap.
