Chapter Two:
Third Person's P.O.V.
Run
That's all the five year old with blond hair and silver eyes could do. Run through the forest around that cover a non-camping site. Run from his foster father, George and his two insane friends, Ron and Jack. He used to have a foster mother too, Jane, but she died, killed by his foster father and it was entirely his fault. Well that's what Raven, a dark voice that was with him as long as he could remember, said but Farore, a much nicer one, contradicts that voice saying that it wasn't. He didn't know what to do. Being diagnose with Dyslexia, ADHD, and Schizophrenia does that to you. He kept running even though George and his friends kept calling him.
"BOY! COME HERE!" George yelled into the air
"YEAH, COME OUT AND PLAY!" Jack yelled chuckling
"WE WON'T HURT YOU . . . TOO MUCH!" Ron said causing him and his friends to laughed. The boy ignored them and kept running and not looking back. Feeling him-self falling into his fear. He hated playing this "game";as George called it. It consists of hunting him with bow and arrows or pelt guns, knives, and sometimes real guns. Today was a rare one with all the weapons He looks back for a second and doesn't see two females walking and runs into them and knocking them down. Making some of the wounds, that covers the boy's body, reopen.
Artemis' P.O.V. a few minutes before running into the boy
It's been about two weeks since we started looking for my son, but still no luck. Father made a mistake of saying that I'll have little chance of finding him. It made me more determined to find him but I was losing hope now; this is the third spot we look. While walking we heard shouting of males bouncing around the forest, oh joy. I looked at Zoe
"What would you like to do?" I asked her
"I would like to try and avoid those voices' sources as much as possible." Zoe said glaring at the direction of the voices
"Alright Zoe we will." I responded and we headed off into the direction that was going to put us away from the males, but we didn't get far because a little boy ran right into us. He stopped looked up and I notice that he had golden blond hair and silver eyes. My eyes widen and my heart jump for joy! He looked exactly like my son! But it was soon shattered by him getting up and giving me a look at his body. It was bleeding with cuts all over his body, two arrows sticking out of his arms, and worst of all a bullet wound in his shoulder. My joy turned to rage, making him think I was mad at him, making him scared and shout quietly.
"Sorry! I'm so sorry!" He said as he quickly turned and limped to my right. I looked over at Zoe to see her staring at the spot he was at.
"Mom" she started "did we finally found him?" Zoe asked hopefully with tears forming in hear eyes.
"I believe so." I said to her as we turned towards the right and ran after him as I thought: I'm coming Logan.
George's P.O.V.
"Where is that little brat?" Ron mumbled
"He's must be around here somewhere" Jack said
"We shouldn't have given him a head start." Ron mumbled again
"Relax he can't go far especially with the wounds he received beforehand." I reassured my friends this game is one of our most exiting ones. If the boy escapes, our excitement leaves with him and we might be put into prison or something. Now that I think about it, I'm glad my former wife is gone, she would have never of let me do this, heck she wouldn't let me punish the boy. After losing her I finally found some worth for the boy; entertainment. We continued walking for about an hour until we reach a spot with blood blots leading towards our right; we smiled and headed off in that direction. We reached the boy and notice two females bandaging him up. That didn't sit right with me.
"HEY WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING LITTLE GIRLS?!" I called to them causing to turn towards us and the boy to go behind the younger looking girl.
"That brat belongs to use for our entertainment." Jack said growling
"So you hurt him?" The older girl said
"It doesn't matter if I did, the boy is my property and no girl is going to tell me otherwise." I said making the girl stand up and go towards me and punch me in the stomach. Making me fall with a grunt; holding my stomach.
"Hey you can't do th-" Ron started but never finished when I looked at him he had an arrow sticking in his chest. As Ron fell to the ground dead Jack starting to went to the younger girl that shot him and yell:
"YOU LITTLE-" but he also never finishes as I saw him fall down too leaving only me left killed by the same girl. Making me feel fear; by looking at what they done to my friends.
"Hope you rot in the underworld." Was all I heard when my world went dark.
Logan's P.O.V. an hour before George and friends arrived
After running into the two girls I limped towards anywhere my body will take me. As I was limping I heard a voice say:
"Wait!" I turn around and see the two girls who I ran into a few minutes before run up to me. I felt fear rise in me making me panic causing my heart to beat faster. Causing my blood in my body to move faster, making the wounds bleed faster.
"Is your name Logan, Logan Lunar?" The older girl asked I was too scared to reply with words so I shook my head yes and without warning the two girls hugged me. Forcing me to inwardly wince so they wouldn't notice how much pain I'm in.
"I've found you!" The older girl said with tears falling down her face.
"W-what d-do-do you want?" I stuttered, shaking with fear
"I want to take you home." The older girl said to me making me even more scared
"No, I don't want to go back." I replied thinking she will take me back to George
"But don't you want to be with you family?" The younger girl asked me confused
"You mean not back to George?" I asked back hopefully
"Who's George?" The older girl asked curiously
"He's a man of pure evil." I replied in a quiet tone
"What do you mean?" The older girl asked again frowning
"George made my life a living hell." I replied moving my eyes to the side of my body with the arrows sticking out of my arm.
"He did what; did he do anything else, besides this?" The older girl asked motioning towards my battered body
"I don't want to talk about it right now." I replied
"Okay, don't worry about it then." The younger girl said as she reaches into a bag a pulled out some bandages.
"Do you trust me?" She asked while thinking I heard the voices speak to me again
"Say yes, Logan." Farore said
"They'll betray you like everyone else." Raven said it took me a few minutes to reply thinking on what was best to say. After a minute I've decided
"Yes." I told her and she sat me down and started to wrap my wounds with my bandages that weren't block by the arrows. After that she stopped.
"Okay Logan I need you to squeeze my hand, we need to get the arrows out and don't yell it may attract unwanted attention." The girl said to me again I shook my head and held her hand holding my breath and biting my lower lip so I didn't yell. I look to see the older girl ready to get the arrows out. The pain was almost unbearable like all the other times. It felt like an eternity until both arrows were taken out and the younger girl spoke again.
"Okay the arrows are out now I need to check the bullet wound." She said but before I could reply I fell into un-conciseness.
When I woke up bandages cover my upper body, arms and some on my legs, and one on my head.
"Who are you exactly?" I said looking at the two girls making them realize that I have woken up and turn towards me and kneel.
"I'm your mother, Artemis." The older girl I guess now mom replied smiling
"And I'm Zoe, your older sister." The younger girl now Zoe also replied smiling, but then I notice that mom looks sad and takes my hand.
"I'm so, so sorry for losing you." Mom started with tears falling from her eyes stopping to take a shaky breath before beginning again
"P-please f-forgive me!" Mom stuttered looking down
After they mom finished saying that the voices began again.
"Don't forgive them Logan! They never wanted you!" The Raven sneered
"Don't listen to her. They love you and she said she lost you she never abandoned you!" The Farore contradicted Raven
"She's fooling you Logan! Everyone will always be against you! I'm your only friend!" Raven continued telling me
"Don't fall for her lies Logan! Listen to your heart; do not let yourself fall into the darkness!" Farore pleaded to me
But after that I blocked them out and made my decision.
"Where were you? Why weren't you looking before?" I growled causing mom too look up shocked
"I was! I was always looking for you everywhere I went!" Mom pleaded to me
"NO SHE WASN'T, SHE WOULD HAVE FOUND YOU THEN BEFORE JANE DIED." The Raven shouted in my mind
"Why didn't you find me then? Why did you let me be hurt by George?" I asked my rage building
"Because Zeus wouldn't let me look for you he always made me stay on a hunt!" Mom pleaded again.
"Zeus? Who's that?" I asked feeling like this is just a joke for George and his friend's amusement.
"The God of Thunder and he's our grandfather." Zoe said, she then went on and explained the gods and goddesses and all of the other stuff, concluding with our mother, Artemis Goddess of the moon.
"Trust them child, they really do mean no harm to you. Give them a chance." The Farore said making me realize the she was right. Perhaps I should give them a chance. I felt the rage I felt slowly fade away.
Zoe's P.O.V.
As I told him about the gods and goddesses I notice out of the corner of my eye that mom was sad that she might be losing her son again. I had no clue what to do. I was scared too.
Artemis' P.O.V.
When he was finished asking those question, which hurt like Hades, I realize he was right. If I thought to look here before I could of save him from the pain he endured, I could have do so much more than just sitting around listening to father, my hunters could of handled plenty of the hunts before and I had no excuse for my absence in his life. Then the bushes behind us rustled reviling three men with knives, bows and arrows, one of them even had a gun.
"HEY WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING LITTLE GIRLS?!" The man in the middle yelled. I notice that Logan went behind Zoe scared of the men before us.
'So these are the men that harmed my son." I thought to myself
"That brat belongs to use for our entertainment." The man on the left growled making my anger rise
"So you hurt him?" I asked the men before us
"It doesn't matter if I did, the boy is my property and no girl is going to tell me otherwise." The man in the middle said to me making me beyond furious. I walked up to him and punched him in his stomach. Making the two other men looked at me and the man I punched fell to the ground with a grunt holding his stomach.
"Hey you can't do th-" The man on the right was about to say about Zoe shot an arrow to his chest making him fall to the ground dead. The man on the right went up to Zoe and started yelling at her
"YOU LITTLE-" He started but never finishing because Zoe stabbed him in the chest with one of her hunting knives causing him to fall down dead leaving only the man in the middle left with fear on his face.
"Hope you rot in the underworld." I said as I stabbed his head with my hunting knives afterwards I walked back towards my children. I look to see Logan looking at me with fear, which makes me feel sad that he would be afraid of me. That is not what I wanted.
"It's ok I won't hurt you." I told him in a calm voice
"You won't?" He asked making me feel worse
"I will never hurt you, my son. I care too much for you." I replied making his fear drift away a little.
"Ok." Was all he said as his eyes fell shut and his breathing slowed down. I know then that he was asleep. It was understandable today must have be ruff on him. He is only five years old he has be through so much and more is coming, I know it.
"Zoe." I said turning towards her
"Yes mother?" She asked me
"Pack up we are going to the camp." I told her as I took Logan from her and held him in my arms protectively.
"Back to the main camp with the other hunters, mother?" Zoe asked
"No back to the temporary camp that only we created to look for Logan." I replied to her as I looked to Logan and smiled at him then flashed us both back to the camp and set him on a bed that I made appear.
"Zoe" I started. She turns towards me "watch over him until I return." I said as I flashed out to Olympus' throne room and notice that the entire counsel was here including Uncle Hades and Aunt Hestia since Poseidon's son wish to that they had thrones in Olympus there. I looked at my father and said:
"I have found my son." Was all I had to do to get everyone's attention and for them look at me with wide eyes.
Author's note: I'm not sure that Schizophrenia is the right term. If it is or isn't tell me and I'll change it. Thank you for reading and again I don't own The Legend of Zelda or Percy Jackson and The Olympians, and when Naruto related things appear I don't own them too.
