Ch 2

Artemis's POV

''WHAT?" I said as I looked at all the other gods. "No," Percy said. "Please, Lord Zeus, no she will tear me to pieces." I look down and saw actual fear in his sea green eyes. "You will accompany the hunt," Zeus bellowed, "Or, we could make you mortal again?" "No, I will accompany her, My Lord." When the meeting was over, I pulled him off to the side and when I went to yell at him, he recoiled and said, " Don't kill me, please." Than I looked in his eyes and realized he was scared out of his mind. "I'm not," I said. " I'm just saying we have to tell the huntresses." " I'm telling Thalia first so she doesn't kill me in front of everybody," Percy said. "Ok let's go," I replied. "I'm going to walk there though," he said. "Ok"

Percy's POV

As I walked outside I had to admit that Annabeth did a real good job on the remodeling of Olympus. The gold statues were better than ever, with the male godes on the left and the females on the right. The golden palace was bigger than before with the gem inlays. The walk way is cooler than before. Instead of walking down rocks it's a diamond walk way, slip resistant, with magic, I assume. I took the elavator down while listening to some song about being ripped to pieces, a real moral booster. When I went by the guard, he bowed and said, "Lord Perseus." "Just Percy, please." I walked out and threw a drachma in a puddle for the taxi laddies. When I got in, one looked at me with their single eye, one had their single tooth, and the other wanted one. "Camp Half-Blood, please." "Ok." In about 2 seconds I was at the entrance. I paid them, got out, and spotted Thalia's tree, which made me thank about Annabeth and how Thalia is going to take the news. When I stepped inside the boundaries I noticed the dragon stand up, then sit back down. Beckendorf ran over to me(yeah he got off the boat when we blew it up.) I said, "Whats up Charlie?" "Nothing, just wanted to say hello." "Well hi, I have to hurry." "Okay." I ran towards the pavilion and spotted Thalia. I walked over to her and said, "Thals will you come over here a moment." "Yeah, sure."We both walked towards the beach and I told her about becoming a god and she said, "Why did you do that?" " Why not? My best friends are immortal, so why can't I be?" "Annabeth's not." "She didn't tell you?" "What?" "She broke up with me." "Damn, why didn't you say so?" "I got one more thing to tell you." "Igotputwiththehunt," I said as fast as I could.

"Do what," she said. "I got put with the hun-aah," she'd jumped on me when I said hunt. I threw her off of me, held her down and said, "It wasn't my idea." With that I released and she said, "sorry, whose idea was it." "Guess." "Aphrodite?" She asked and she started laughing, "just joking." "That's right." "WHAT?" "Thats what lady Artemis said." "We're telling the rest of the hunt now," Artemis spoke up. Ah crap. We walked to the Artemis cabin and went in. They all looked at me in suprise, which quickly turned to disgust. Artemis told them about me becoming a god and I scooted towards the door. ''What's that got to do with us?" Zoƫ Nightshade spoke up. The door was half way open and I said, "I got sent to join the hunt for a year, Aphrodites idea," and I ran fast.
