Chapter 8: {OC's POV)

(Sorry about the switch up in POVs, I just felt like I should do this since he's going will be an important character in this story.)

'Ah the sweet pleasures of being tortured' he thought. There was nothing like being tortured on a dark day. It really forces you to think about how you got there. He stifled a groan when a whip laced across his back. The fucking irony he thought. If he was under circumstances he would've laughed, but now wasn't the time. "Who are you?", Where is your pantheon?", and his all time favorite "What are you?". Were the questions that they asked him. As if he would tell them.

Why would he want to tell them when they ambushed him in the middle of the night while he was sleeping. He wasn't even mad that they ambushed him , but that they interrupted his sleep. Needless to say, he fought harder than usual and kill about 10 of them before they managed to restrain him. But back to the present, he openly laughed at their attempts to break him, he had experienced far pain far worse than this. He even had the scars to show it, though they vastly faded over a few weeks, they were still there.

"So when is this going to stop?" he asked "This is obviously not going to work anytime soon." "I needed to go somewhere today, I get crazy without my filling of Krispy Kreme donuts." They all facepalmed and responded with similar answers. "Only after you tell us who you are, what you are, and where is the rest of your pantheon." He thought for a while and responded. The monsters seeing the look on his face eagerly leaned in thinking he had finally gotten tired of their game. " I am The Hunter Valen and yes that is my real name, and who knows where the hell my pantheon is." he said acting arrogant. "And the last question, they replied breathlessly." Hunter snorted, "Eager beaver aren't ya" he muttered under his breath.

"And for the grand finale" he let the tension build up." One of the monsters yelled at him to hurry up. "Shut up" he yelled and to his surprise he did. "As I was saying before someone interrupted him" he glared at the known offender, "The great finale is..." He let the tension build up again before saying "I have no fucking idea what the hell I am". Dead silence erupted from the room. 'Can silence be erupted he thought before he initiated his plan.' He kick up from the tilted slate he was on and shook off long broken handcuffs.

Did they seriously think that he couldn't break them off. Come on, he thought, they were celestial bronze. Who, someone of his caliber, couldn't break it? He internally laughed at their faces when they saw him. "Bye" he said cheerfully before he picked up a broken piece of celestial bronze, courtesy to broken handcuffs, and stabbed the nearest monster. "Intelligent bastard" he muttered, before moving to the next one. He ducked under the punch of the next one, who had the quickest reaction, and stabbed where his heart should be. Things happened in a similar fashion to all the rest but one.

This one had to be the biggest of them all, he had kept notice of him, since he hadn't laughed in delight when he was being tortured. Before he had time to think of a strategy, the giant monster swung at him with blinding speed. Shocked at the velocity of the punch he instinctively jumped back. "I suppose you won't let me go even if I asked nicely." he said smirking. While the monster was wondering whether he was mentally retarded or not, he quickly slash his gut opened expecting it to go deep. It didn't. Not deterred at his failure he quickly spun around to his back sliced another part of his body. He aimed for another spot, his neck.

A third of the way there the monster suddenly jumped so that the knife pierced his back not his neck. Deducing that the monsters weak spot was there he pretended not to notice and jumped back again, the monster back facing him. Spinning around quickly he spotted Hunter stretching on a chair, working his joints. "Took you long enough" he yawned. Angered by the young boy's lack of respect for him, the monster charged leaving all thoughts of protecting his weak spot behind. Hunter stood up waited for the monster to come at him and then jumped forward high in the air, placed his hand on the monster's head and stabbed his neck.

Percy Jackson style, he thought. 'Kind of' his subconscious nagged at him. "Oh shut up" he said aloud and went to the door and cracked it open. He looked back and waited for the monster to dissolve. Once it did it turned into silver dust, with the make-shift knife with it. "That's new" He spied golden bronze dust within the pile of silver dust. He picked up another piece of Celestial bronze sharpening it against the slate he was laid upon on.

As he turned his attention back to thee door he waited for his eyes to adjust to the harsh light before he slipped outside. As soon he went out he felt his power returned to him. What awaited him shocked him. Two steel walls that went on endlessly.

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS. "You can't just put steel walls in the middle of the woods." he said aloud frustrated. "It's just not right." He started walking down since he hadn't gained enough power to transport.

He also hadn't fully recovered from the torturing he had received. As he neared the end of the path he spied someone perched high up the steel walls. "Well done Hunter" "How do you know my name" he said threateningly holding up his sharpened weapon. "Who wouldn't know the famous Hunter Valen." she said sarcastically. He responded with the same sarcasm. "I don't know" he said "Maybe people who haven't met me before." "That would probably be a good answer."

"Alas I cannot say" she said. "I shall tell you later where you have earned it." She stood up while saying so. "You have many tasks in front of you, for you are the last Etruscan." " Or shall I be more specific, son of Nethuns." He gasped and looked at her in shock. She must be powerful to know that he was Etruscans. He didn't even know how his torturers knew that he was Etruscan. One look at her and he knew that she wasn't in league in with them.

They didn't even know that he was a son of Nethuns. At least she didn't know what he was. He could be a demigod, god, or in between. You didn't have a different color of blood if your were an immortal Etruscan. "Wait may I have your name" he said respectfully. He knew he wasn't powerful enough to defeat if she knew who he was. "Acting nice aren't you, Hunter?" He gritted his teeth and tried not to respond sarcastically. "Very well" she said. "You may call me Lust and nothing else." With that she dropped over the steel wall. He ran the rest of the path and looked right to see if he could see any sign of her.

"Of course not" he said and mustered enough power to vapor travel.

Time Skip

{Percy's POV}

"Wakey Wakey" Percy said from his position behind Piper's door. "Come in" came the reply. Percy walked in and struggled to control his heart. She looked so freaking cute with her hair like that. Messy but still beautiful. Only Piper could pull off something like that. Annabeth didn't even let him see her until she got ready. Even when they were going out for a while she rarely let him see her in the mornings. He chuckled out loud unintentionally. Piper's face reddened and she looked away.

She didn't have enough nerve to yell at him to get out like she would usually would to someone else. Percy noticing said, "Sorry Piper, I wasn't laughing about your hair, I thought of something Nico said a while ago, he lied not wanting Piper to know that he was comparing her to Annabeth.

"Okay" she said though her blush wasn't going anywhere anytime soon. "I just wanted to tell you that training will start in an hour and that you should eat breakfast because you're going to need it." Nico and I plan on working you hard." said Percy. With that Percy scuttled out of her room with a red tint on his cheeks.

"That was awkward" he said aloud and mumbled to himself that he needed to stop talking to herself. Ignoring that fact that he just did it,he went to Nico's room to wake him up for breakfast. Once there he barged in the room not bothering to knock. He was about to wake Nico up but decided there was better way to do it. He left and went to search for a bucket. Surprisingly it was hard to find one in Hera's palace. But nevertheless he found one and filled it with hot water.

On normal circumstances he would have filled it with cold water but since they were sons of Hades he knew the cold would wake him up but make him more powerful when he came back for revenge. He waited beside the bed and counted to three and three the hot water on Nico. He quickly shadow-traveled to the kitchen and waited and counted to three once again. One...Two...Three! "PERCY FREAKING JACKSON"

Percy exploded in laughter. Piper came in, hair fixed, and stared at Percy questioningly. "You'll see" all he managed to get out before he exploded in another fit of laughter. No less than a minute laughter Nico arrived dripping wet from head to toe. "Percy, I'm so going to kill you if you don't get your butt over to the arena where I can kick your ass." said Nico angrily. "Why the arena?" questioned the boys but was ignored. "That would be because I don't allow fighting in the house so the arena is the only place they can spar without getting in trouble." explained Hera who arrived in a flash of golden spectacular light. 'She must be spending too much time with Zeus' Piper thought. "From the looks of it, we can all tell what happened." "Now settle down for breakfast we must wait for Hestia to dine with us."

{Hunter's POV) (I really love my OC)

Hunter vapored traveled to another safe-house. Since they had found him in his other house he decided to use a house he rarely used. He hired maids to keep care of the house and to keep fresh food in the fridges at all the times. He even let people live there sometimes. He called ahead to make sure the house was empty when he arrived. He went to his room ate some ambrosia, though it didn't work to it's full potential since he wasn't Greek or Roman, and promptly fell asleep.

A/N So what do you think. Probably my longest chapter. Hoping to beat Chapter 4. So Hunter is an Etruscan. For those of you that don't know, the history of the Etruscans is very vague. Some say that they conquered Rome, some say that they came before the times before the Romans. The point is, is that they have similar gods to the Roman and the Greeks. Just different names. Hunter is a son of Nethuns, god of the sea, and the last of his kind. I might go a little into the Etruscan pantheon but not much, I can't find solid translations. Hunter will play an very important part in my story, I just don't know what he will do. Sorry about the switching of POVs in this chapter. I just didn't know how to end this chapter so I switched to Hunter's POV. Here are some Etruscan gods that I think are right:Apulu - Apollo

Artames - DianaFufluns - BacchusMenarva - MinervaTinia - JupiterTuran - VenusTurms - Mercury

That should be correct. Let me know if you caught an anime reference. Here's a hint. FullMetal Alchemist. Brotherhood too.
