Hello guys! Sorry for not writing. First, I was real busy at school. Then, as soon as it ended, I was went on a vacation for two weeks. After that, well...

*nervous laugh* I kind of... *cough* forgot about the story.

*hides under bed*

I'm sorry! Please forgive me!

Now that I'm not busy anymore, I am going to work on my stories whenever I get a chance. So, are we cool now?

Also, someone asked if Megan was going to be shipped with Nico. No, no, no, no, no! Never! I'd never stoop as low as to ship my OC with Nico. She's not going to be shipped with anyone. She's only here because *spoiler* *spoiler* *spoiler.*

Anyways, here is the story!

Artemis' POV

Imagine for a moment that you have a twin. Imagine that he not only transforms you into something you loathe but blames you too. See, most of you are probably going to say that would make you very angry, furious even. Well, now you know how I was feeling.

A door opened on my right and Hecate came out of her private office, phone in hand.

"Why didn't she just Iris message dad?" Ares asked, trying to cross his/her arms but found it hard with the new company on his/her chest. I rolled my eyes.

"Because it's easy for people to listen in on Iris messages. So she texted him instead." I informed him— er, her. Ares huffed.

"Well, I have some bad news." Hecate said as she rejoined our group. We all groaned and she put up her hand. "I told Zeus what happened and he said that he's not canceling the trip to come help. We're going to have to figure this out ourselves."

"Man," Apollo said with a sigh. "This wouldn't of happened if dad had invited us."

"This wouldn't have happened if you'd never been born!" I shouted.

"Whoa bro, calm down." Apollo said. I felt my cheeks flare.

"I am not a bro." I growled. Apollo shrugged.

"You are until we change back." Apollo said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. I gritted my teeth.

"Whatever, Apolla." I said. She frowned.

"Apollo." She said. I shook my head defiantly.

"You are Apolla until we change back." I said, crossing my arms. Apolla pouted. Hecate rubbed her temples.

"This is going to be a long week." Hecate mumbled. Ares stormed up to her.

"Hey! I got a question!" Ares shouted. Hecate turned to him.

"Yes?"

"Why didn't you change genders? You were near the blast too." Ares said, once again trying to awkwardly cross her arms over her chest.

"That's a good question!" Apolla said.

"Shut up, Apolla." Hephaestus grumbled.

"Oh, come on! That's not my name!"

"Well," Hecate said, shifting on her feet. "I happened to throw up a force field right before the blast hit me."

"And you couldn't throw a force field around us?" Ares said, gritting her teeth and looming over the goddess of magic threateningly.

"Look, I would've helped the rest of you if I could but, as it was, I barely had time to protect myself." Hecate said.

"Whatever." Ares said with a huff. Aphrodite, who currently looked more handsome than even her son Eros, admired himself in a nearby mirror.

"I'm probably the hottest boy to ever grace Olympus." Aphrodite said, giving the mirror a seductive smirk. I face-palmed.

"You're an idiot." I said.

"Both of you, shut up!" Hermes suddenly yelled. We turned to see her shaking her caduceus and George and Martha flailing around. Hermes was a tall, lithe girl with a green tank on, jogging pants and Adidas sneakers. She had long, curly black hair that was pulled back in a pony tail.

"We're just saying! It's funny when you think about it." George said as he was shook.

"Shut up, George!" Martha said. "Or Hermes won't ever stop shaking us."

I rolled my eyes.

"The immaturity is astounding." I said. Apolla swung her head in my direction.

"Why don't you get off your high horse?" Apolla snapped at me. I felt my cheeks flare.

"I will once you start using your brain!" I said. Apolla clenched her fists.

"I do use my brain! And, fyi, I happen to be a lot smarter than you!" Apolla said. I snorted.

"Yeah, right. Sure you are." I said with an eye roll. "And snails are faster than a cheetah."

"Hey!" I heard someone call out. We both turned our heads and saw my dear hunters coming over to where we stood. I smirked while Apolla paled. Now my dear sibling had it coming.

You can imagine my shock when my hunters gathered around Apolla and crossed their arms and glared at me.

"What are you...?" I asked, unable to finish my sentence.

"How dear you torment this girl?" Alisa said, her glare becoming harsher. "When Artemis hears of this, you shall be punished."

My jaw dropped. "B-But, but—"

"Thanks for helping me out guys." Apolla said, putting her arms around the nearest hunters.

"No problem."

I shook my head. I couldn't believe it.

"I-It's not fair!" I stuttered. Thalia snorted and rolled her eyes at me.

"Wow. Way to sound pathetic." Thalia said. I clenched my teeth.

"That is no way to talk to me." I said through my teeth. Abby responded.

"I wouldn't do anything to us if I were you. That will only increase our Lady's punishment for you." Abby said.

"I am your lady!" I shouted. They all stared at me.

"Riiiiiight." Thalia said. "Look, sorry to break it to you, but you aren't Lady Artemis. She's hotter."

I was taken aback by that comment.

"What on Earth is that supposed to mean?" I asked. "I-I'm hot! I mean, how can she be but not me? We're the same. Also, what do you mean Artemis is hot?" I asked. Thalia just raised a brow while Apolla tried her best to hold back her snickers.

"You know what?" I asked. "I will prove to you I am Artemis. And I will expect an apology." Thalia rolled her eyes. "Especially from you."

I summoned my silver bow and arrows, my weapon of power, and pointed it at Apolla. The hunters jaws dropped while Thalia's eyes widened like golf balls.

"Hopefully, now you realize your mistake. I am Artemis." I said. Then I took a step closer to Apolla. "And this is my brother, Apollo. Due to his shenanigans, we have been forced into the forms of the opposite gender and can't change back."

The hunters Apolla had her arms around took several steps back and away from her. Apolla smiled sheepishly.

"Come on! You all turn your backs on the company of men, right? And Arty is technically a boy now. That means, you shouldn't listen to him." Apolla said. I gritted my teeth as my hunters got confused looks on their faces.

"Do we still listen to Artemis now that she's a boy?" Sammy asked. My hunters mumbled among themselves. Thalia crossed her arms.

"Look, we swore a pledge to follow Artemis and I think it still stands even now that she is temporarily a boy." Thalia said. I smiled. Good ol' Thalia. She is certainly one of the best lieutenants I could ever ask for. Still...

"I expect an apology right about now." I said, crossing my arms and looking at Thalia pointedly. Thalia rubbed the back of her head sheepishly.

"Yeah... sorry, Lady Artemis." Thalia said. The rest of my hunters followed suit and started to apologize.

"Thank-you." I said with a firm nod. "Now, come on hunters, let's go back to my house."

"So... you aren't going to hurt me?" Apolla asked with a twinge of hope.

"Not right now. Later though." I said.

"Oh."

After we were a good distance away from Apolla's prying ears, I spoke to my hunters.

"You know, I need to find a way to get back at Apolla." I said. "Any ideas?"

"Glue his underwear onto his skin?" Thalia suggested. Helen snickered.

"That's brilliant, Thalia!" Helen said. I shook my head.

"No, that's a bit too immature. I'd rather not stoop to his level." I said. Helen pouted and was about to say something back when Devon intervened.

"Leave it be, Helen. Don't start a fight with Lady Artemis." Devon said.

"Lady? Isn't she a Lord now?" Helen asked.

Smack!

"Ow! What the Hades was that for, Devon?" Helen asked. Devon continued walking with a straight face, as if she hadn't just slugged Helen in the arm.

"That was for not shutting up." Devon replied. Helen grumbled under breath.

"I got an idea." Sammy said quietly. We all looked at her. "You may not like it though."

I raised my right eyebrow. "Oh, what may that be?"

Alright, I am finally done with that chapter! Now, for some important announcements.
