WHASSUP EVERYBODYY! It feels like ages. My WiFi's been on some mad s***, so I couldn't update on anything. Both Wattpad and FFNet weren't letting me publish anything on my mobile data either. So here's a chapter for both books!

Right, so, for everyone that didn't get the Colossal, Armoured and Warhammer joke, it's basically a reference to one of my favourite animes, Attack On Titan. Basically there are these massive humanoid monster things that they call Titans, so I was just using the word cos Greek Mythology got Titans too. Those 3 are special type Titans, that's why they have names of their own.

HumanGuy66: Yeah I will write an arc just for Percy and his group, I just wanted to set the scenes for Pertemis first.

IShipPertemisOnly: It's mandatory cos Zeus told him to do it lol

Percy walked out of the throne room, angrily punching the door on his way out. Why, Zeus? Haven't I been through enough already?

He was about to keep walking through Olympus, but then he sensed a presence leaning against the wall behind him. He stopped, and spoke without turning. "I hope you're happy now."

Artemis walked over to him and grabbed his shoulder. "What happened to you promising never to run from me?"

Percy rolled his eyes. "At the campsite? I didn't run. I stayed right where I was."

Artemis huffed, surreptitiously sliding her hands down to his own. Percy, noticing, snatched his hand away, scowling at her. Some of the gods hanging out in Olympus threw him jealous looks. He had one of the most beautiful, unattainable Olympian goddesses after him, and he was rejecting her?

"Well, seems Artemis is getting looser, huh? Don't mind if I do..." A minor god muttered, starting forwards, and his four companions grinned and nodded in agreement.

The five minor gods started trying to cop a feel from the maiden goddess. Fast as light, Artemis whipped her bow out, ready to make them pay for their insolence with their reproductive organs.

But Percy was faster.

The young god immediately drew Riptide and sliced their reaching hands off. They screamed in pain, and Percy summoned his trident and ended them quickly through the spines. Hopefully they would take their time reforming in Tartarus.

Artemis made her bow disappear confusedly. Percy had protected her, then taken vengeance, that viciously? Then she gave a coy smirk.

"Percy, were you just looking out for me?" She asked, smiling and grabbing his hand.

Percy snatched his hand back, again. "Whatever. They were scumbags anyway."

Artemis walked up close to him. "Are you sure that's the only reason?" She teased, looking up into his eyes.

Percy looked away stubbornly. "I said, whatever. I don't care."

Artemis turned his face back to hers. "I think it's because no matter what you say, you still want to be with me, hmm?"

Percy went over to a random bookshelf on the street. Athena and Annabeth had had them installed in case they were ever walking through Olympus and were struck with the desire to read, which apparently happened a lot more than you might think.

He pulled a book out and pointed to it, and then at Artemis. "Hey, look at this book!" He called. "It's called The Lion, The Witch, and The Audacity Of This Bi-!"

He was cut off by Hestia popping up behind him, slapping him upside the head, shouting "Language!", and disappearing again.

Percy rubbed his head, bewildered at the sudden interruption. "I swear," he glared. "You women are all getting way too comfortable doing that to me. My mom even did it last time I visited her!"

Artemis laughed and bounced off, stopping and turning around to wait for Percy. No matter what he said, he wouldn't be able to get her down again.

She had hope, and she had a whole trip with Percy ahead of her. What could she possibly have to complain about? This was everything she wanted!

Percy scowled at her as he walked up to her. He then realised that Alex and the rest of the group would be wondering where he was, so he spoke in their minds.

Guys, it appears I won't be back for a good while. Remember the base we were talking about? Well, go to Kansas -sorry, Jason- and find a good place to make it.

Alex replied in his mind. I'm guessing if I just think stuff, you'll hear it. How come you won't be back?

I need to do a hunt with Artemis, Percy thought back, his voice in their heads sounding noticeably annoyed. Unknown to him, they all laughed.

Well, good luck anyway, bro! Pollux said.

This is so cool! It's like a group chat for our Hunt! Sophia's voice squealed in all of their heads, making them all wince.

As usual, Nico began winding her up. Why do we have a daughter of Aphrodite, ugh, am I right? Well, apart from you, Piper. You're cool.

That's it! You are dead! Sophia thought-shouted.

No, I am *Prince Of The* Dead. Get it right.

Ugh!

Percy's features softened into a smile as he listened to the banter between the two. But since he was absentmindedly looking at the person he was walking towards, Artemis thought she was the reason for the smile.

She grinned, then ran and jumped on Percy, hugging him tightly. Percy, snapped out of the conversation he'd been in, looked down at her. "Get off me, woman." He murmured, trying to gently pry her off, but Artemis smiled when she saw that his face had gone a little red.

So naturally, she clung to him even tighter, reveling in his aura. It made her feel safe and happy. She knew this was nowhere near how she would normally act around a male, but this was Percy. "I refuse. Let's go to my palace so I can pick up some stuff."

"Not until you get o- Oh, whatever." Percy grumbled. It wasn't that he disliked having Artemis hugging him. Actually, it was making him feel amazing, happier than he had been in a while. But consequentially, it was making it a whole lot harder for Percy to resist the goddess. It was taking all his willpower just to stop himself from holding her up and kissing her.

And he almost did exactly that, before firmly shoving his hands in his pockets and starting to slowly walk towards Artemis' palace, the moon goddess still hanging off of his front, arms locked around his neck and legs similarly positioned around his waist.

I won't let her close to me again.

I can't trust her, she's proven that. She'd just as easily break it again.

Right?

Percy grimaced. If he had to spend the whole hunt denying himself like this, he'd go insane.

Soon, they reached Artemis' palace, and Percy stopped outside the door. After a minute of him just standing there, Artemis pulled her head back off his shoulder to look at him. "Um, what's wrong? Aren't you going in?" She asked.

Percy used her moment of distraction to twist out of her grasp, and then started to walk over to his own palace. "No, why would I do that? Hurry up and get what you wanted, Artemis." He said sullenly, still rather angry that he'd been dragged into the whole thing.

Dam it all, the goddess of the moon thought. She'd wanted Percy to come in and have fun with her and her hunt, but no. He had to be stubborn. Then she had an idea. She opened the door of her palace, and looked in. The hunters had somehow installed about thirty TVs and PlayStations, and were all playing Minecraft together. She raised her eyebrow as Celyn killed a pig. "No, this does not count as practicing hunting, which is what I told you guys to do." She said, trying to repress a smile.

Atalanta grinned sheepishly. "Milady, if you think about it, since we're hunting in the gam-"

Artemis raised her eyebrow again, and Atalanta's mouth clopped shut. "Anyway, guess what?" The goddess of the moon said cheerfully. "Percy's outside..."

On his way to his palace, Percy sighed, frustrated. All he wanted was to go continue hanging out with his Hunt. Now he thought about it, he needed to come up with a name for them. They'd just been using 'Percy's hunt', but they needed an official name. Maybe...

Yeah, I got no clue. I'll ask Alex for ideas, and- The Hades? Percy's thoughts were interrupted by a commotion behind him. He could literally feel all the footsteps vibrating through the ground. He rolled his eyes, summoned his trident and turned around, ready to take his anger out on whoever was disturbing him.

Only for his eyes to widen in shock and panic as he saw all fifty-something of the Hunters of Artemis racing towards him with their arms out, squealing. He made his trident disappear and turned to run, but was quickly taken down when Grace jumped into two of the older hunters' arms and they threw her at him. She crashed into him as he turned, and started hugging him so hard he was sure he'd never breathe air again.

The rest of the hunters had caught up, and they picked him up and carried him into Artemis' palace, laughing. Percy couldn't help but laugh along with them, that is until he caught sight of Artemis, who was waiting and smiling at his predicament. "You put them up to this!" He yelled.

Artemis shrugged. "So what if I did? Teach you not to run away from me, hm?" She said sassily, reaching out and booping his nose with her finger. In the background, all of the hunters 'oohed' and giggled.

Percy just rolled his eyes and sat down, picking up a controller. The hunters all laughed and raced to their beanbags to play again. Artemis smiled. Step 1 complete, she thought proudly to herself.

Soon, night was falling. They'd been playing for a whole day, Artemis realised. The goddess stood up and stretched. "Percy, I'll go get the stuff I need." She said.

Percy rolled his eyes. "Finally." He muttered, but he had to admit he'd enjoyed spending time with them all again. Then he looked around in surprise. While he had been engrossed in playing the game, all of the girls had cosied up around him, meaning he was in the centre of a whole circle of hunters. He'd never get out.

All of a sudden, Percy had a completely unrelated idea, and began to smile deviously. He quickly wiped the expression off of his face before anyone noticed, and innocently asked, "Girls, what was Artemis building in the game?"

"She made this amazing hunting lodge! I'll show you!" Grace said, and he followed her to it in the game. He almost burst out laughing. This would be even easier than he thought.

As Grace showed him around the thing, Percy surreptitiously placed TNT at regular intervals. Once the tour was finished, Artemis herself had just walked back in. "Okay, Percy- Don't you dare..." She said, freezing as she saw all the TNT around her house. The other hunters all noticed, and gasped.

Percy dared.

Artemis' lodge blew up, the only trace of it ever having been there being the crater now sitting where it used to be. Artemis' eyes widened. "Sacrilege..."

Everyone looked at Percy, only to see him already dashing out of the door, shouting his farewells with a laugh. Artemis roared in anger and dashed after him, only pausing to say goodbye to them all with a look of unbridled fury on her face before leaving.

The girls all laughed and went back to playing the game. They hadn't realised how much they'd missed the boy until now. They played in silence for about five minutes, before Grace's voice spoke.

"He's dead."

And everyone responded in unison.

"Yep!"
