A/N

To Going dark, who guessed who Ikol is, what do you want, a spoiler, or a suggestion? P.M me your choice.Thanks for the support and reviews. Motivates me to write further.Onward with the story.

Last time

He nodded and gave me a small smile. Then, I left the palace and started swimming towards the top.

After about fifteen minutes, I reached the surface of the ocean. As I stepped on the beach, I saw that I had landed on a deserted part of the beach. Beside me, there was a small forest type of woods. Hmm. So I can take the normal way and reach camp safely or go through the woods and face many monsters. Guess which I chose.

"Beware monsters, the Destroyer is coming"

Current time

Percy POV

"Beware monsters, the destroyer is coming."

Saying this, I turned towards the woods and sprinted into them. Staying and training underwater had had a really big impact on my stamina. I needed less air than a normal demigod, thus enabling me to sprint for longer distances with great speeds without getting tired.

I had been running for twenty minutes when I heard a scream of pain. By it's shrillness, I could tell that it was a female. The scream was filled with pain. What the fuck could have hurt a girl so badly? The possibilities that came to my mind made my blood boil. My mother had always taught me to respect ladies and never hurt them.

I quickly uncapped Riptide and twisted my ring to reveal hurricane . Another scream of pain came from the same direction where I had heard the first one. Without wasting a second, I dashed off towards the female. I ran into an open clearing and the scene I saw made my anger reach it's peak point, and that is really something, given that I have sent the first eleven years of my life with an irritating brother, molesting nereids and rude fish.

In front of me was a small pond with clear water. A girl was lying limp beside the pond. Her eyes were wide open, but they held fear in them. Her right hand was bent at a painful angle, which made me wince. Her left leg was clearly broken. Beside her was a group of ten cyclopes. The girl was wearing a silver parka and skirt. She had a silver circlet on her head. Her hair were as black as mine, which surprised me as I had never seen anyone's hair as black as mine. Her eyes were charcoal black colour.

The cyclopes were clearly enjoying seeing her suffering. They were too busy laughing to even notice my presence. But the largest of them suddenly stopped and smelled the air. He raised his club and smacked the cyclops next to him . Immediately the laughter died down. The leader spoke in a gruff voice, " Stop. I can smell another demigod near us. Looks like it is our lucky day. Two tasty demigods to eat".

The others looked excited and started chattering happily amongst themselves. I decided to make my presence known to them. "Hey idiots. Didn't your mother ever tell you to never hurt a lady?" The cyclopes turned to me and immediately grinned happily.

The leader spoke again," Come foolish half - blood. Let us eat you. I promise it won't hurt." That was so stupid that even I had to face palm. Even the girl let out a frustrated groan. I decided not to reply him further , in the fear that he would again say something utterly stupid. Instead, I raised my sword and charged towards them . It was one demigod versus ten grown cyclopes. Sigh. Why isn't the world fair?

You and I both know that you are literally gonna wipe the floor with them. Ikol spoke in my mind. Man. That dude is a real pain in the ass. I used to think that I am the most sarcastic person , but that dude is at a whole different level. And the pranks that he thinks of. Oh! I was grounded for a while week because of a prank that I pulled on Triton on his birthday.

' Nice of you to show up. Where were you for the past week?' I shot back. He had a wierd routine. He would literally pipe up at any point of time, and disappear the same. When I asked him, he would always reply with the same answer - watching TV series. The first time I had asked him, he had joked saying that he was masturbating. This caused me to stop and think about how he was living in my mind. So masturbating in my mind?? Ewwwww. Grosss. That was enough to make me puke my guts out.

The little shit was really annoying. But he was also really helpful when he felt like being it. I could tell by his analysis that he was really skilled at reading and manipulating people. His skilful wording had many a times saved me from my mother and father's wrath.

Oh the usual . Watching TV series and sleeping. He answered like always. That dickhead. By this time, I had reached the cyclopes.

I slid in between the legs of the first cyclops and used my legs to give me a boost. I jumped high in the air and stabbed my sword right into the eye of a cyclops. His brother ,who was to his left shouted out in anger and swung his club towards me. I ducked my head and dodged his strike. As he was pulling back his weapon, I latched on to it and pulled myself towards him. Using my momentum, I swung my shield really hard. It hit him right in the jaw, and a crack was heard, clearly stating that his jaw was broken. He stumbled back, clutching his jaw.

I looked around to see that I was now surrounded by the other seven cyclopes. Wait? Seven cyclopes? There were ten in the beginning. I killed one and decapacitated one. That leaves eight. I looked around to see the leader marching towards the girl. I quickly summoned my throwing knives and threw them at inhumane speeds. Two knives hit him in his right arm, the same with his left one. The other two knives pierced each of his legs. The leader fell to the ground, screaming bloody murder.

Is it a good time to tell you that another cyclops is swinging his club towards you? Ikol asked calmly. I turned around and was immediately met with a club to my chest. The force was so great that I was sent flying about ten feet back, right into the waiting hands of another cyclops. 'Ikol!!'. I screamed at him inside my mind. Why couldn't the idiot inform me about it earlier? And how could he be so calm while saying it, like he was informing me of the current traffic updates?

The cyclops caught me and immediately got me into a chokehold. He then proceeded to slam me into the ground with full strength.

My back hurt like Hades. The cyclopes stepped back and started laughing at me and jeering me. I slowly got to my feet and got into a fighting stance. Two cyclopes came rushing to me with their clubs in the air. I blocked one strike with my shield while simultaneously sidestepping the other's strike. I brought Riptide down in a deadly arc, effectively beheading one cyclops.

Then I slashed the other monster across it's stomach, causing it to dissolve into brown dust. The remaining five cyclopes charged at me together. I threw Riptide away and drew my throwing knives, which had come back to me after the leader of the cyclopes was killed. I threw three of them, which hit the eye of three monsters sending them to Tartarus. That was when I realized that maybe throwing riptide away wasn't a really smart move. Now I didn't have any weapon for close range combat. I had my imperial gold gladiī, but they needed time to be summoned. So, I concentrated on the water in the pond.

It answered my call and came towards me. I used it to wrap around one cyclops and controlled his body . I made him attack his friend. They were locked in a heated battle as fists flew around. Once I felt my trusty pen-cum-sword return to my pocket, I grabbed it and uncapped it. The pen transformed into the beautiful Greek leaf-blade named Anaklusmos. I released the water controlling the beast and willed it to splash onto the monster's face. This disoriented the brute for the moment.

Taking this opportunity, I lunged towards the other cyclops and stabbed him through the stomach. The one-eyed monster shrieked out in pain before dissolving into golden dust. I turned my attention to the last cyclops, who had gotten over his surprise. He ran towards me with his club raised high. I knew that I won't be able to survive a hot from the club, especially after being pummeled into the ground full force by a grown up cyclops. So, I sidestepped his swing and slashed him across his thigh. Blood started oozing out of his wound as he fell down clutching his injured leg. It suddenly struck my mind that I had to finish this fast as the injured girl didn't look too good right now. She was barely conscious. I stabbed the cyclops in his eye , effectively getting monster dust coated on my shirt.

I groaned in annoyance and quickly tried to dust it away. But it was really sticky thanks to the blood that the cyclops had spilled and my sweat. Scolding myself that the priority now was to check on the injured girl, I ran towards the fallen female. She was still in immense pain, but I had to hand it to her that she had a perfect poker face. I bent down to pick her up. As soon as I touched her, she used her good hand to unsheath a knife and slash it at my arm. If it wasn't for my super fast (and awesome) reflexes, she would have surely cut my arm off before I managed to withdraw it. "Do not touch me thou filthy male. I swear I will cut off thy dick if thou try anything." She spoke icily.

But I wasn't really scared as after witnessing Poseidon's icy tone, this was like nothing compared to it. But this also caused anger to rise within me. I risk my life to save her and in return she treats me like a vile rapist and tries to cut my arm off. Is she crazy? "Hey. I am just trying to help you. If it weren't for me, you would be dead right now. If you don't want to say thank you, fine. But at least don't treat me like a rapist. My mother has taught me to treat all ladies with respect. That's the only reason I helped you." I shot back angrily.

My tune seemed to surprise her as her eyes widened dramatically. But she finally sighed in defeat. "Ok. I shouldn't have spoken like that. But I am curious, why aren't thou afraid of my glare and threat?" She asked curiously. Wow. What a way to change the topic just because you can't bring yourself to apologize. Damm. This girl had serious ego issues. But I didn't voice these thoughts and spoke, " I admit that your glare is scary, but it is nothing compared to my father's glare. And believe me when I say that I have been at the receiving end of his glare more times than I want to admit."

This brought a strained chuckle out of her mouth. As soon as she did so, she started coughing loudly. I summoned some water from the lake for her , which she gratefully took and drank. I started to scan her for any serious injuries other than her broken arm and leg. She also had a broken rib. I pulled out the ambrosia that I had and gave her some to eat. She immediately gobbled it up and sighed in content. "I am going to pick you up and carry you to somewhere you can get healed. Is that okay with you?" I asked. She nodded and I picked her up bridal style. She was about sixteen years old, but her eyes held a vast amount of experience and pain, which suggested that she wasn't as young as she looked. She was about 5'6 in height, standing just two inches larger than me. But I didn't have a problem carrying her as she was really light, and I was stronger than I looked.

"So, what were you doing alone in the woods? Isn't it risky for a demigod to be alone in a forest filled with monsters?" I asked and she snorted in response.

"First, I am not a demigod. Second, I am not alone . My mistress and sisters have set up camp nearby. I just came here for gathering some water . " I nodded in acceptance, but had a doubt.

"You say that you aren't a demigod, but I sense that aura from you." I said suspiciously. She gave me an amused look and spoke, " A demigod who can sense auras? Interesting. Well, I am not a demigod, I am a hunter of Artemis."

The last part caused me to stumble in surprise. It all made sense to me now. The silver clothing she had on, with her bow and knives. Also her hatred towards me, a male.

I looked at her with wide eyes and fear evident on my face. This caused her to chuckle. "Scared, boy?" She asked mockingly.

I steeled my nerves and shook my head. " I have no reason to be scared . I have not done anything wrong, so I am not scared . And can you really blame me of I am a little reluctant to meet your mistress?" I asked her honestly.

She nodded her head but didn't speak anything. We walked in silence for a few moments. I took this time to examine her properly. She had a slight coppery tint to her skin, giving her a typical Persian princess look. The silver circlet on her head just added to this look. She had a small nose, but high cheek bones, giving her a regal, but elegant look. Her lips were soft pink.

I decided to carry on a conversation. Now you must be thinking,

Fuck. Percy, are you insane? Wanting to have a conversation with a man hater, who also happens to work for a bigger man hater who can kill you with a snap of her fingers?

Well yeah. Maybe I am insane. But eh, who cares? My recklessness and slightly insane attitude has saved my life so far and has worked out, so I wasn't really that worried. Also, looking at this girl made something stir inside of me. I didn't know what it was, just that it was a pleasant feeling. She was really beautiful, she could easily give the mermaids from Atlantis a run for their money with her beauty.

I decided to carry on a conversation. Now you must be thinking,

What the fuck Percy? Are you insane? Wanting to have a conversation with a man hater, who also happens to work for a bigger man hater who can kill you with a snap of her fingers?

"Well, what is your name?" I asked dumbly.

She looked at me suspiciously, to which I rolled my eyes. She finally relented and spoke two simple words," Zoë Nightshade."

I nodded and replied, "Perseus . But call me Percy." She raised an eyebrow and asked," Why do thou not like thy real name? Also, why do thou not have a surname?"

"It makes me feel old. And as for the surname part, I just don't have it. My dad doesn't have a surname, so nor do I." I deadpanned back.

She looked at me with a mix of amusement, irritation and ...was it fondness? I shook my head. Surely I must be imagining things.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard a huge amount of commotion from a little distance. It sounded like a battle as I could hear metal clashing. Zoë's eyes widened as her expression changed to that of horror. " The Hunt is being attacked. We have to help them." She spoke loudly. I nodded my head and increased my pace.

"Not we, I have to help them . You are in no condition to fight right now. " I said with steel in my voice. It looked like she was going to protest, but I have her my signature wolf glare. This caused her to flinch slightly. She nodded her head. When we reached the Hunter's camp, we saw that the battle was not going well for the Hunters. The goddess herself was not present, as I couldn't feel her aura. The Hunters were outnumbered almost five to one. The monsters were a mixture of cyclops and hellhounds. I set Zoë down near a tree and uncapped my sword.

I charged towards the monsters. I hacked and slashed as fast as I could. I was making rapid progress. Now, the monsters had divided themselves into two separate groups . One group was attacking the Hunters, while the other was solely focused on me. I was so engrossing in fighting, that I didn't sense a flash of light and a really strong aura enter the camp.

My sole focus was to kill all monsters and keep Zoë safe.

Artemis POV

I had been called to an emergency meeting on Olympus by my father. But towards the end of the meeting, I suddenly felt my hunters call for my help. I immediately informed my father and flashed myself to my camp. I was shocked to see my hunters being attacked by monsters. I was even more surprised to see a boy fighting the monsters.

I summoned my hunting knives and immediately sprung into action. I fought alongside my hunters and killed monster's left and right. Once I had killed majority of the monsters, I took a short breather. As I scouted the camp, I was surprised to see the boy surrounded by monsters, still showing no fear. Rather, the boy was decimating monsters left and right. She was awed by his skill with the sword. It was as if the boy was fighting straw dummies. And the most important detail was that the boy was only eleven years old. I could tell his birth date, due to me being the goddess of childbirth.

A boy who wasn't even in his teen years was fighting with enough grace to give even Ares a run for his money. Impressive. But still, he was just another boy. A disgusting male pig. The monsters were slowly decreasing in number. In the end, only one cyclops was left. My second eldest huntress, Phoebe notched an arrow and aimed for the last cyclops. But before she could even fire, a throwing knife hit the monster in the eye, instantly turning him to dust. I looked in surprise at the boy, who was standing in a perfect throwing position. There was something different about this boy. I decided to interrogate him.

Percy POV

As soon as I killed the last cyclops, I felt a powerful aura approaching me. It was similar to dad's, but much weaker and silver, while dad's aura could literally suffocate me and was sea-green.

Knowing that the only way I could survive this confrontation was by showing respect, I immediately dropped into a bow, "Lady Artemis, it is an honor to be in your presence." I said.

She stopped in her tracks and was surprised that I knew who she was. Afterall, she was in the form of a thirteen year old. She had Auburn hair, tied back in a ponytail. She stood about 5'2, which was two inches smaller than me. She wore a similar silver parka to that of her hunters, but her parka was one of a leader. A circlet, similar to the one Zoë had, rested on her head. Her eyes were a beautiful silver color, with small patches of yellow in them.

"So you know who I am, huh? Well then , what are you doing in my camp, boy ? Speak before I decide to turn you into a jackalope."

She spat the word boy like it was the most disgusting thing ever. But alas, I knew this would happen, so I was slightly prepared for it. Emphasis on slightly.

"Forgive me milady for entering your camp without permission, but I was just carrying your injured lieutenant back here. Here, I saw monsters attacking your hunters, so I decided to...assist them in slaying the beasts. Also, your lieutenant is in a terrible condition now and needs immediate medical attention. So, please treat her first and then interrogate me further."

She seemed taken aback by my news and immediately turned her head towards an injured Zoë. In the next moment, she was beside Zoë and desperately using her energy to heal her lieutenant. She put her hand on Zoë's head and transported her to somewhere, perhaps her medical tent.

Artemis POV

As soon as the boy informed me of my lieutenant's condition, I dashed towards her and transported her to the medical tent. "Atalanta, Sophia please go to the medical tent and treat Zoë. I will assist you as soon as possible. " The daughters of Apollo, making them my nieces, nodded and dashed off towards the medical tent. I turned my attention to the boy, who was standing quietly at a side, away from my hunters. Marching up to him, I grabbed his collar and pulled him closer. Looking into his eyes, I have him a death glare and spoke in a threatening tone," Tell me the truth boy, what have you done to my lieutenant? If you have harmed her, I swear I will castrate you and then turn you into a jackalope."

The boy's eyes grew wide with fear and he spoke in a panicked tone," I did nothing milady. I was just traversing through the forest when I heard her scream in pain. I reached a clearing and saw her on the ground, with her arm and leg broken. Ten cyclopes were standing over head , ready to kill her. I killed the cyclopes and carried her back to your camp. I swear on my name that what I said was true. I did not harm her or try to take advantage of her in any way. My mother taught me better than that." The last part, he spoke a little angrily. I looked into his eyes to see if he was lying, bit couldn't find any deceit in them.

Suddenly, I felt a chill down my spine. The boy's eyes widened and he pushed me hard . I fell to the ground and rage built up in me. But I saw the boy jump to where I was standing earlier and an arrow pierced him in his stomach. The boy winced in pain and fell to the ground. I was shocked to see the scene. The boy had just jumped in the middle of an arrow aimed at me. I heard another arrow be shot and looked up to see Phoebe shoot an arrow straight into the eyes of an empousa. The empousa had a bow in her hands and the arrow which hit the boy was similar to the one she had notched. The empousa turned to dust as soon as Phoebe's arrow hit her. I scrambled towards the boy who had fallen unconscious.

I turned him around and slowly removed the arrow from his stomach. The arrow tip had some green liquid on it. I examined it to see that it was elder snake poison. Extremely deadly. It could send a god in a coma for about a full week. The poison had by now started spreading in the boy's body. I quickly flashed him to the medical tent and set him down. I had learned some medical techniques from Apollo over the centuries. It was good that it included curing elder snake poison. All you had to do was pass some godly energy into the body and feed the person some ambrosia.

As I was doing so, I decided to search the boy's mind, trying to see who he was. But , I was unable to enter his mind. It was as if there was some kind of barrier protecting his mind from any outside interference. The only information that I could get was that his name was Perseus and he was eleven and a half years old.

He was tall for his age, standing at 5'4. He had raven black hair, which were messy in the bed hair type of way. He had a good athletic body with well defined muscles which showed that he was well trained. But his most prominent feature was his eyes. I had tried to guess his parentage by looking at his eyes, but I couldn't place them at any god. They were royal blue colour with yellow sclera, there was also a ring of sea-green around his eyes. They were like swirling pools . It looked as if the waves and lightning had been mixed together somehow. And when he had glared at me, even I couldn't help but feel a little intimidated. His eyes were sparkling like a thunderstorm, even more dangerous than my father's glare.

As he was resting, I made a decision to myself . I will find out about this Perseus. He seemed different from other demigods. I had an uneasy , but pleasant feeling about this.
