*General PoV*

With a flash, the three brothers disappeared.

Apollo was still on the verge of panic when they appeared on their thrones a half hour later.

"Father, please! We need to do something about this!" Apollo said. "If we don't do something-

Zeus raised his hand for silence. "If the council agrees, then we will send you and Artemis down to Camp Half-Blood to talk to the son of Hephaestus and daughter of Aphrodite. All in favor?"

Apollo's hand immediately shot up, followed closely by Artemis's.

Poseidon, Demeter, Hermes, Zeus, and Athena raised their hands in favor.

"Against?"

Ares and Hera raised their hands, while Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hades, and Dionysus kept their hands down.

"Seven for it. Apollo, you and Artemis may leave once we are done."

Apollo calmed down, but the worry and panic didn't completely leave his face.

"Is there anything else?" Zeus asked.

No one spoke up.

"Meeting adjourned."

The gods left in colorful flashes, until only empty thrones remained.
