Thalia Third Person POV

She had rough days during her, fairly short, lifetime. Starting from her house, to Luke and Annabeth, to dying, and to where she was hung up now. Again, another problem decided to appear from the sky: a problem that the love goddess herself would enjoy dearly. But, after all, she did beat all the problems she had before this situation, so a love problem wouldn't be that hard to get over. Thalia does like a good fight against her rival, who is not Percy, and it hopefully would be a few quick attempts at destroying Aphrodite's dreams. That would be a satisfying experience to the Daughter of Zeus.

Now, she just has to beat the challenge laid ahead of her. Which also means trying to fix all these love problems that Kelp Head got himself into. And he just had to drag the Corpse Breath into the struggles: which proves that Percy is really a one-of-a-kind oblivious idiot. But Thalia is fairly confident she could fix everything up, although she doesn't want to pick a side so that also means what to do firstly.

The first clue to her puzzle was she knows Percy and Annabeth had broken up, not on good terms. The secondary clue is that Bianca likes Percy, which also brings the Daughter of Hades into the troubles of love. Yet Bianca hadn't even grown up to know what love was, so that would have a lot more problems added into it. And that wasn't all: Nico and Will like each other and now she has to bring the duo together. Looking back on it, there was a lot more trouble than Thalia thought. But she was the Daughter of Zeus after all, so she had to be cursed with overconfidence which sometimes she wants to shoot down.

Now she has to bring them together, recreating the family that was destroyed. It hurts, a lot as Thalia had to create and be in multiple different families. Losing her mother, although she can live without Marie Grace, she barely moved on from Jason's loss. Luke found her after that, completely destroyed mentally and emotionally, Luke took her in: Annabeth following in shortly. That family was destroyed after that, with her death came Luke's anger towards the gods and ending up with him joining the Titans. Another family lost to the pigeons. She found another one though, which was a short family as Zoë and Bianca died, so she joined the Hunt just to find another family. Now hers is going down to the flames, and she has to fix it.

But what would be her next move? To fix this completely destroyed and thrown-apart situation? Well...it's simple. She would try and firstly get Percy and Bianca together. Though, Percy and Annabeth fell apart and probably couldn't be fixed, Percy and Bianca? There is a small chance in that, and she is taking a gamble with it. Yet she didn't want any pain on Annabeth, but the best choice for the Daughter of Athena is probably joining the Hunt. And Thalia would love her longest-alive-friend to be by her side. It would be early Elysium if this works out, and hopefully it does.

She ran across the rest of Camp, bursting into Artemis' cabin. The Huntresses were scattered all across the floor, some quizzing others about animal species whilst others were stabbing pictures of males, specifically: Hercules. A small smile played upon Thalia's lips but it faded fairly quickly as she turned towards Phoebe. "Is everything situated here?"

Phoebe stood up to attention, nodding her head in affirmative. Thalia's face had an unusual expression on it, but the adopted Daughter of Artemis has to admit that she experienced a small bit of jealousy when she sees Thalia. She wasn't a leader, and she wasn't the Alpha or Omega of a pack. She was a side wolf, and Phoebe honestly liked that. But she has to stand aside while a new girl, although she was a wonderful lieutenant, became lieutenant that easily. Though she never agreed with those feelings, she knew it was correct and that just brought anxiety to her. Artemis does love Thalia as a daughter, and Phoebe just felt like she was completely replaced by her. It still hurts, millennia of service only brought her a family. Although, she has to move on from that grudge as it wasn't right for a female to have a grudge. That was for males, and weak males. Not for women, and she is a women so she has to stand up for her gender, pushing all of the superior-thinking-males out of her life. That is why she joined the Huntresses of Artemis, and that is why she would stay loyal to Artemis as she taught Phoebe everything about how males were disgusting. "Very well, I need to show you guys something. And...I might need your help." That brought wide-eyed to everyone in the room, and a few suspicious glances from the elder Huntresses. Phoebe, herself, was a bit skeptical about leaving the cabin, but something else was wrong, and years of experience and tracking gave that suspicion to Phoebe. Nevertheless, she agreed and followed her sister out of the cabin. Thalia led the Huntresses across camp, but she could tell that Thalia was looking for someone. Which brought a few guesses upon Phoebe's mind as the only people that Thalia would bring the Hunt to is some random male to beat or Thalia's friends. Which it is most likely the former as the Daughter of Zeus would most likely have remembered where her friends were.

Thalia led the Hunt straight to where Bianca was, while the Daughter of Hades was still standing awkwardly beside Percy. She turned around and tried to see the Huntresses' reactions, which the majority of them just stood there open-gaped whilst Bianca waved nervously. Which Thalia doesn't blame her for as coming back from life and seeing your closest friends during your short time alive is a pretty-big-and-emotional moment. Suddenly, Huntress after Huntress, still disciplined, were hugging Bianca. A few were trying to interrogate the Sister of Nico but were quickly cut off by other eager sisters. Then, as if a horn was blared, all the Huntresses started interrogating Bianca, making her very uncomfortable but Thalia found it to be laughable. Once the questioning stopped, answers were passed around as Bianca explained everything to them. Slowly and steady, like she had trained hard on it which made Thalia a bit worried at her plan. If Bianca joins the Hunt, Annabeth and Percy would have to get together again. But Thalia already saw that Percy and Annabeth would never work again after what happened. It still brings bits of anger in her chest at the thought but it really does not matter anymore as that was in the past. Moving on was moving on, and she tried to tell Annabeth about that, yet, it did not go to planned. Exactly like all of her plans. "Are you going to join the Hunt again?" Thalia questioned, and it seemed like a whole pin drop entered the perimeter as everything went silent. Multiple pairs of eyes watched over as Bianca started to contemplate the question, but she turned her head back to where Nico last went and sighed before shaking her head.

Many of the Huntresses' faces fell but Bianca didn't really care anymore, she made her decision now and she can't change that. Nico still needed her, and she saw how he looked at Will. So now she has to get the 2 together, while risking everything she wants. Being lieutenant seems awesome but Bianca knew she couldn't lead anything, much less she led Nico down a pit of depression and her own death. What better would being the leader of 30 people and all of their lives on her hands. She can't just live with the pressure. "I'm sorry guys, I just can't. My brother still needs me and I literally died last time, failing him."

Percy stood by and watched as Bianca profusely apologized to her once-sisters, but he doesn't really blame them. This was one of the moments where you split off from people you were once close to, going to the person you are closest to. And he admired that, the bravery to even say 'no' to the Huntresses. Any male would have never even stood near them, and they know what the Huntresses would do if they even lock eyes with a single Huntress. It is a very terrifying experience, creating traumatized males. Thalia pulled away from the group, making her eyes scan over the group; although, she did keep her eyes on Percy and Bianca for a split second longer than the Huntresses, creating a nervous tension in Percy's arms. "Well...you always have a spot in the Hunt, Bianca. No hard feelings here." One Huntress told Bianca, with a soft tone in her voice. Most likely a Daughter of Aphrodite based on the softness of her voice, which could make people even swoon due to the voice itself. Nevertheless, Bianca just hugged her tight before pulling away. "I-it's okay. I would just make home here. Thank you girls. But you guys would still be my sisters, even though I'm not in the Hunt." She answered back, smiling at the girl. They had split after that, waving their hands around with a lot more enthusiasm. Bianca reappeared beside Percy, watching wistfully towards the leaving girls. "Hey--you still have us?" He tried to comfort her, although it didn't have the intended effect.

Thalia walked back with the Huntresses to the cabin, closing the door behind her. The Huntresses raised their eyebrows in confusion at the Daughter of Zeus but she didn't even reveal what she was planning. "Is that it? Is that all you had to show us. I know that Bianca was very worth it but it isn't your character to bring the whole Hunt to greet one lost Huntress." A huntress asked curiously, making Thalia prepare for the answer. "I know that you guys may not want to help, but I need it." Then Thalia explained the plan to the Huntresses.

Bianca Third Person POV

Bianca was happy for Percy being by her. Although they don't share that close of a bond, they still have a sort-of-special-friendship together, but it does seem pretty weird. She gets a pretty weird feeling standing by him, but it isn't that specified. It was a warm feeling into her stomach; having whole wave of warmth going throughout her body, like warm blood going through her vains. But she liked the feeling, it gave her warmth in her usual Hades' daughter coldness. "Well, let's go see my brother. He still needs help as he barely got out of his depression since today." She started laughing at herself, letting herself slowly get back her breath. Eventually, she stopped chuckling and stood up straight once again. "Well? Let's go!" She started running wildly around, letting Percy hesitate before chasing her. Once again, Bianca felt a spark of joy in her body and it confused her. Yet she didn't let it get to her mind, letting it spark through her body and have a brighter day.

Nico had awkwardly stood beside Hades' cabin with Will beside him. He was nervous, just standing beside the Son of Apollo and that really got to him. He never experienced the feeling he got from Will, but the feeling itself was annoying. "So...um. How's the infirmary?" He asked loudly, quickly silencing because of his voice cutting through the noise. Will stumbled instantly right after the statement Nico made before the Son of Apollo answered back, "Uh. It's good. Yeah. It is good." The Son of Hades flinched nervously but suddenly Bianca burst into the area, Percy not too far behind her. "Nico! Will!" She addressed, hunching over and laughing a lot more than a Daughter of Hades should but she didn't really care for that. Nico got jealous because of it, and usually he never gets jealous because of his sister but she did have a happy life while he did not. "Hey." He greeted back, turning away from Will and towards Bianca. She completely ignored her but just answered back, "Well? Could we do anything here?" She questioned but Nico knew full well what she meant. After all, she barely had entered camp grounds and she barely even got use to camp life before her sudden death. Yet Will answered instead, "There are a few activities we could do. Since the Huntresses are here, we would play Capture the Flag tonight. And that would be pretty cool. But right now...we could at least train in the arena. Nico? Percy?" The Son of Hades rolled his eyes, getting Will to grab his arm. Nico quickly yelped in shock, blood rising to his face. The feeling was not something he was use to but no one noticed, thankfully. "Come on. Pleeeaasse." Will begged, making Nico's face flush but that really just made him even more annoyed at his confusing feelings around his body. Why was Will affecting him...this much? He truly never found out when he thought over it but before he even got deeper into thought, Bianca just laughed and indicated for Will to drag Nico away. Although, she was making Will lead the way, Nico knew that Bianca had the knowledge that he literally hated it.
