I'm back with another update!
I want you guys to know that in this story, it WILL NOT be Percabeth, It will be PercyXThalia. Thalia and Percy are NOT related in this, Thalia is the daughter of Artemis. I know what you might be thinking, WHAT?! ARTEMIS IS A MAIDEN GODDESS! Thalia is Artemis' daughter from before she made the oath, and she is immortal (Just like the hunters of artemis, she can only die in battle) Thalia doesn't know that Artemis is her mom, and so in a way, just like Percy, she shouldn't be alive. Also, i am so so so so so sorry I haven't updated in over a month! I've just been really busy, and i've been having problems with the site. It won't let me upload chapters that have a length that's over a certain number of words. So unfortunatly, the chapters will be much shorter. I'll try to post more often though! Also-
Thalia: *Facepalms* Nu! Akari! Stop! Don't torture them with more author notes!
Akari: But what if they're inter-
Thalia: *Punches Akari*, *"Level up" sign appears above her head* Yay!
Akari: *Rolls eyes* Anyway, on with the story.
Disclaimer: I don't own PJO or any of the characters except my own "creations" and the plot.
Chapter One
That night, I decided I had to go. I couldn't live in the place I called home anymore without questioning who I was. I didn't pack much, just some spare clothes, a few ambrosia squares, and of course my sword, Riptide. I also left a note. I guess it was more for me than it was for them. I needed to convince myself that I really was leaving. As I got up to leave my cabin, I heard a knock on my door. I stumbled a bit, rushing around, trying to find a place to hide the note and my backpack. I ended up just stuffing them under my bed. I looked in the mirror above my bed and ruffled my hair a bit to make it seem as if I had just woken up, and then walked over to my door and opened it. On the other side was a sight I never thought I would see. There, staring at me with bloodshed eyes full of tears, was the lieutenant of the Hunters of Artemis.
Thalia Grace.
Thalia's POV
I woke up a in darkness, with a kind of butterflies in my stomach. I sat up and yawned, looking around. Wha-? Where am I? I thought, panicking. Oh, I forgot, we're at Camp Half-Blood. The only good thing about being here was the archery range. It was surprisingly better than the one Artemis had gotten us. I then realized that it was still dark out. Oh, it must be around 3 then.
I guess I wasn't the only one awake, because as my eyes stared to focus I saw two figures. One who seemed to be glowing a silver light, and the other was a... horse? They were talking in a hushed voice and i'm guessing they didn't know I was awake, so I laid back down and pretended to be asleep. I was still groggy and they were about 10 feet away, so I didn't hear all of the conversation. I opened my eyes a little bit and peeked out from under my sleeping bag. I saw that Artemis was crying. I wanted to go over to her and tell her things were okay, but I knew I couldn't if I didn't even know why she was crying. I shuffled my sleeping back over a bit so I could hear better
"You'll have to tell her at some point Artemis. You can't keep putting it off." I heard the horse, I'm guessing Chrion, say.
"I know." Artemis said in between sobs. "But what if she hates me? What if they take her away? She shouldn't even be born right now!"
Who shouldn't be born? Oh, this is getting interesting! I shuffled my sleeping back a bit closer to the two so I could hear them a better.
"I know you love her, but it's better you tell her than have her find out on her own. Look at Percy for instance. He flipped out! We still need to calm him down and tell him the entire story. You don't want Thalia to do the same, do you?" Chiron continued.
Oh, poor Thalia! I'll have to tell her... wait... THALIA?! WHY ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT ME? And what about Percy? I started panicking. I started to get up, but then I realized that I should probably wait and hear the rest of the story first.
"No... of course not. But Thalia will probably hate me once she learns that a "Maiden Goddess" who's supposedly hates men is her mother! What will I be teaching her? I've spent centuries building up that reputation, and now it'll all be ruined if she finds out I'm her mother!"
My face turned as pale as Artemis' bow when I heard that. Artemis... is my mother!? How could she do this to me? How could she do this to all of us! She's been lieing to us all this time! Oh... so this must have been what happened to Percy. Wait... I hope he isn't Artemis' son! I didn't really want to admit it, but over the years i had kind of developed a crush on seaweed brain. If anybody asked, i'd have denied it though. Maybe Poisidon isn't his dad, and it's Zeus or one of the minor gods. That doesn't make sense though, because of his powers. I'll ask him later, and get this sorted out.
Well, I hope you enjoyed it! Like I said earlier, I'll try my best to update more!
Till then!
Also, if I don't see you until after Christmas...
MERRY CHRISTMAS! HAPPY KWANZA! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
Huehue :3
XOXO
