I DO NOT OWN PJO
The Goddess Guard
"I put him up there not just to be honored but to be punished aswell" Artemis said pointing to the scorpion in the sky next to Orion."And did you do this because you think he deserved it, or because you felt obligated to?" Artemis looked at him like he was crazy."Perseus I gave Orion his punishment because he deserved it not because I had to" Percy gave her an odd look."Why did he deserve it?" Artemis got confused."What do you mean?"Percy sighed."Did you do it for me or for the young huntress?" Artemis' answer was immediate, she didn't have to think."You Perseus" Percy nodded."So I will ask the question again, was he worth it" The answer was immediate again."No, it was the worst mistake I have ever made" Percy searched through her eyes for any sign of deceit. When he found no signs he nodded and he smirked slightly."Then I am sorry" He said."Sorry for what?"Artemis said."For running, if I would have known I wouldn't have, and besides I only ran because of my fathers orders"Artemis smiled a little."I will only forgive you if you forgive me" Percy smiled widely this time."Consider yourself forgiven...Arty" Artemis smiled as Percy hugged. Many of the hunters gasped and all bow were drawn except one."Stand down girls, the is the man that we have been searching for" There were many gasps from the girls who haven't figured it out yet. Percy pulled away from the hug and looked over the crowd of hunters."Hello sisters, I am Perseus but you can call me Percy. Some of you may take a while for you to accept me, and some may never accept me" There were a few nods in the crowd."But you will learn to tolerate me until you accept that I will be here for a very long time, more time then many of you will be here. I will see you in the morning" He walked off towards one of the trees closest to Artemis' tent. He climbed up without another word to the hunter.
"Girls treat him with respect and do not try to play pranks or drive him off. I just got him back and I don't plan on losing him again. Now get some sleep, tomorrow we have to explore this new land" The girls grudgingly went to their tents. Many of them plotting against the male even though Artemis told them not to. In the morning Artemis woke up happier then she has in a long time. She made herself presentable before walking out of the tent to see Percy sitting Indian style with his hands holding his knees and his eyes closed."Is this how you protect me" Artemis said playfully. Percy smirked."I have better senses right now then you might think" Artemis crossed her arms."Prove it" Percy smirked."Well I can tell there are about three hunters in trees spying on us" Right when he said it three hunters jumped from a tree with looks of annoyance."Zoe is about one hundred feet away and getting closer, and a hunter has just drawn a bow and shot it at me" As soon as he finished he caught an arrow that should have killed him. He opened his eye to see Artemis staring down at him in aw, as he started to twirl the arrow around his fingers."How did you do that?" She said."I am a different man then I was" She nodded."Who taught you?" Percy looked into her eyes."Jason taught me to fight and my mother taught me how to be calm, gentle, and forgiving" Artemis nodded her head, no wonder he forgave her so fast."Your mother is a good woman" Percy nodded in agreement."I think I will visit her soon, since my annoying father told me to stop hiding" Artemis realised that he was not here because Zeus threatened him, but because his dad told him to be."Who is your father" Percy shook his head."If your dad found out I would have to kill him before he tries to kill me" He said this in a deadly serious tone."I won't tell him I swear it on the styx"
Percy looked up to Artemis again and studied her."He is Erebus a primordial god, much more powerful then the Olympians" Artemis almost laughed."That's impossible, they faded millenia ago" Percy shook his head."You are speaking about things you don't understand" Artemis immediately bit her tounge, judging by his tone."How is he so powerful if he is only a love god" Percy shook his head."My father could say a few words and you all would all be off your thrones" Artemis just shook her head. Percy's eyes started to glow faintly."Sit down Artemis" She immediately sat down."Shoot the tree right behind me" She pulled her bow out and shot. She was pulled out of her daze when she heard Percy's laughter. Artemis got up and realized why she never was able to catch him before. She backed away slowly realizing what Percy could do with the power to manipulate an Olympian. She had to tell someone, anyone.
