Artemis P.O.V
I was shocked Lady Styx had released me from an enteral vow I made millennia ago and now I was destined to have a child? The thought pissed me off, I was supposed to have a child and no less with a man, I then shook myself as I turned to my brother Apollo as I asked him before anyone else could.
"How long, how long until this prophecy is to come and pass?" I said in a demanding tone. He replied back to me. "Well sister if I had to guess I'd say roughly thirty years if not more based around the time it took for the previous great prophecy to pass as well as the one before that." I nodded as I looked around the throne room, then a thought snapped into my head. "If the child is to be a demigod but yet still have two godly bloods then that would mean that the child would have to be conceived before the second god has fully taken his abilities and gained full godly blood." I said in my head.
That can be the only explanation however I knew exactly who the male would be, it would be none other than Perseus Jackson, the god of tides, he still had fourteen years before he was fully a god, yes he was a god now but he didn't have his full powers due to his age, he was the youngest that any god had ever been made and not born.
"Well daughter it seems as though the prophecy is clear about one thing and that is confirmed by the sudden appearance of Lady Styx, you are to have a child and with none other than Perseus, but if Apollo is correct you have many years before this passes as well as Perseus still has fourteen years, I suggest that you two start to get comfortable with each other, more so that what you already are." My father spoke before everyone nodded in agreement. "Yes Uncle I mean Lord Zeus." Percy responded to him while he looked at me as if he was saying sorry, actually he probably was, he knew what this meant for both of us. However if I'm being honest he was quite handsome and he had earned my respect in every single way that is imaginable except of course for using a bow however he had gotten much better at it than I had anticipated. After a few more hours of relatively boring conversation we had adjourned our meeting. Once everyone was gone Percy came up to me as I was walking out of the throne room as he was apologizing.
"I'm so so so sorry Lady Artemis, I never thought that something like this would happen and I know how much that your oath had meant to you, please forgive me." I chucked mentally as he was apologizing for the work of the fates "Do not worry Percy yes I am irate by this but it is neither yours or my own fault, their is nobody or nothing that we can blame for this, not even ourselves." He nodded before offering out his arm letting me loop my own through his if I so wanted. I looked at his arm and decided to take it in my own as he walked us towards the edge of Olympus before flashing us somewhere I had never seen.
Percy P.O.V
I mentally face palmed myself as I had been walking with Artemis before I flashed us to Montauk beach. I smiled as I looked at the beautiful sight before my eyes, even if it was winter you could hardly tell here.
"What is this place Percy? I've never seen it before." Artemis asked me. "Well Lady Artemis this is my favorite place in the world, Montauk beach my mother always used to take us here for a weekend every year, after all this is where she met my father." I explained to her. "Well why would you take me here?" I chucked "Well look it's night time and feel it this place here is a very strong area for the tides and so it's a strong pull for the moon." She looked around and nodded her head before taking in a deep breath, "You're right Percy I do feel it and please just call me Artemis you've more than earned the right to do it." I replied "Of course Artemis anyways sorry for bringing you out here like this it's just I thought you might like this place, as well as I really did want to apologize again for what has happened today."
She looked up into the sky as she took a minute to think and respond to what I had just said. "I do love this place Percy and as I said before you can't blame yourself for this it's not your fault, however it is a bit chilly outside mind if we go inside?" I hadn't even felt the cold as I felt embarrassed for not thinking about it sooner, I then took of my jacket and gave it to her before heading towards the small beach house, as we got inside I started to clean everything up before Artemis stopped me. "Percy why do you not use your powers to clean everything up? As well as thank you for the jacket it's very warm." I laughed "Of course any time and secondly I don't use my powers because much like when you hunt I find the task of doing it relaxes me, reminds me of my childhood before I knew about the world of the gods." She nodded as she then started to help me, after about an hour we had the place looking better than new as I decided I'd start a fire to make hot coco. Once it was done I gave a cup to Artemis who was staring into the fire as I sat down next to her. "However Artemis I do think we should talk about this prophecy."
"Yes I believe you're right Percy it's a very interesting one to say the least." She responded "Well first of all I don't just want to have a kid, I want that child to be born of love and in a stable home, even if I may not get to be apart of her life twenty four seven." She nodded "Yes that's what I want, as well. However it may take years for that to end up happening and coming true I want years with my partner if I'm to have one." I nodded before taking a drink as I subconsciously pulled her close to me and put one arm around her. I smiled as I felt her snuggle into my chest. "Yeah I want years many many years, good thing we've got thirteen then huh?" She laughed at this as she drank her hot chocolate. We both finished at the same time and put our glasses on the coffee table. Before long I felt Artemis breathing come to a steady pace as I knew she fell asleep on my chest, I looked down into her auburn hair as I fully laid back and eventually fell asleep as well. This was a feeling I hadn't had in months I knew I could get used to this no matter how long it took for it to become permanent I knew I could wait.
Alright guys hope you enjoyed chapter 5 please review and let me know what ya think.
