Percy pov:
"Because without my help you'll never find him." I said with a smile on my face. She was quiet for a solid minute, before she lowered the bow from my head to my chest.
"If I agree to your terms, then you will help us find him; while being completely truthful with information about him or his location? If you lie at all then I will not hesitate to kill you." Artemis said.
"So I assume we have a deal?" I asked.
Artemis sighed. "I swear on the river Styx to abide by our deal." She said. Upon the last word thunder boomed off in the distance.
"Swear on the Styx." She said.
"I swear on the Styx, to abide by our deal." I said and as before thunder boomed in the distance upon my final word.
Artemis lowered her bow and was about to speak when there was a loud boom and a flash outside the tent. "We will discuss the rules of being in my camp later. Right now you are conning with me to Olympus."
I gulped in fear. "Umm... Why am I going to your council meeting?" I asked.
"Because of three things. One, I don't trust you with my hunters. Two, you're a male with information on who I'm hunting. So, I don't want my hunters to kill you. And three, you get to explain to the other Olympians, about how you know Percy." She said while counting off on her fingers for each point.
"Umm... I uh...got to uh." I said trying to find a way out of my predicament.
"Your coming with me and we are leaving now." She said sternly. She then grabbed the end of the chain and pulled it out of the ground. She now held the chain in her hand like a leash, before teleporting us to Olympus.
We appeared in the middle of a throne room full of twenty foot tall, arguing people, who seemed to take no interest in us ;until, Artemis shot a couple arrows at the arguing Olympians heads.
"Woah! Cool it sis! There's no need to try to take our heads off!" Apollo said when the last arrow flew at him.
"Now since everyone is here, we can begin the council meeting." Zeus said.
"Wait! Hold up! Artemis who is the boy and why is he here?" Hestia asked.
"I will answer that, when the time comes." Artemis responded. That statement received many raised eyebrows, but no one said anything.
"Any more questions? Or can we begin?" Ares said rudely.
000000000000000000000-TIME SKIP (a couple of hours)-0000000000000000000000
"Ok, with that out of the way. We have one last topic to discuss then we will get to Percy." Zeus said. "Artemis, my dear, please tell us who the boy is and what's he doing on Olympus?" Zeus asked. Artemis sighed and was about to speak when Aphrodite spoke.
"Artemis has a boyfriend!" She said in a sing-songy voice. No sooner had she said it than a silver arrow to lodge itself in Aphrodite's chair missing her by less than a centimeter.
"Don't ever say that again." Artemis said in a low menacing voice.
"To answer your question father. This boy is not a boy but a werewolf who is tied to Percy's disappearance somehow. I have made a deal on the Styx for his cooperation." Artemis said. "So I am going to let him explain himself so that everyone knows and I don't have to tell anyone." She said. All eyes turned to me.
Greeeaaaat! This exactly what I wanted to do. I thought sarcastically. "Our deal was between us. Not the other Olympians." I said trying to save myself.
"Then speak to me and pretend that they are not here." Artemis stated.
I sighed out loud. "If I am going to tell, then I want no interruptions." I said.
"Fine. Now let's start from the beginning with your name and how you met Percy." Artemis said.
The throne room fell silent as soon as Artemis stopped talking. "My name is... Dameion, Dameion Orthwrite." I started to say until I was interrupted.
"Liar!" Apollo shouted.
"Really? Can I not speak without interruption?" I asked.
"How can you lie when you swore to tell the truth on the Styx?" Artemis asked. She looked angrily at me.
"If you remember I swore to tell the truth about information on Percy or his location. I never swore about my self." I stated matter of factly. "Can I continue now?" I asked. Looking around at the gods (most of which were starring daggers at me) before I continued.
"I was walking around the woods about two weeks ago, when I stumbled upon a clearing-that was covered pretty well and most people would not notice it. In the clearing there was a tent-which was a mess inside and- that had no one inside. I was about to back out and leave for I could smell a hell hound and I did not want to fight."
Ares frowned at that statement.
"When I felt a sword tip at my neck. 'Who sent you? Hestia? Thanatos?' I didn't move for I didn't know if the sword was silver or not.
We waited until he removed the sword from my neck. With that I turned and looked at the stranger.
He looked about seventeen maybe eighteen with wind swept black hair and ocean green eyes.
'Which god sent you? For I know there are no wolves that live this close to camp.' He said.
I slowly backed up a foot and transformed. If I hadn't he would have tried to stab me making the beast come out. I held my hands up in surrender.
'I wasn't sent by any gods nor do they come for me. I go where I like when I like.' I said to him.
His shoulders slumped. 'I wish I was free.' He stated sadly.
'Why?' I asked. My curiosity had gotten the best of me.
'I just don't belong with my kind. I had my friends but now they hate me and my girlfriend likes my brother.' He stated sadly.
'So you feel abandoned?' I asked. He nodded.
There was several seconds of silence before he spoke again. 'Would you do me a favor?'
'What kind of favor?' I asked him after a pause.
'I want you to kill me.' He stated.
'I would rather not for their is a chance you would turn into a werewolf then die. So no.' I stated.
'Then at least spread the news that I am dead. Tell everyone and anyone who knows me or has heard of me, the great Percy Jackson is dead!'
I stared at him in disbelief. 'You're Perseus Jackson killer of the minotaur and killer of Kronos? The one who lulled Gaea back to sleep?' I asked.
'Yes. I am he... Will you do as I ask?' He asked me.
I paused before responding. 'If I do, why would people believe me?'
'Because you are going to be the last one to ever see me.' He responded. 'And only you will know my exact location if I am ever needed.'
There was a long pause before I answered his original question. 'Yes, I accept.'" I said finishing my tale to some very quiet Olympians.
Annabeth pov: (again?! Really?!)
I awoke to a quiet cabin.
Unfortunately I had no dreams last night. Now most demigods would have loved to be in my shoes, for the dreams we get can be quite awful. But I have had no dreams for the past 3 weeks. Ever since Percy disappeared I stopped having dreams.
It's really scary for I used to dream about us, or back when there was a war that threatened us; I had dreams about it too. but now? None.
I left my cabin trying to think of any reason that I have stopped having dreams when I heard yelling.
"You stupid freak! Why don't you just leave like that weakling Jackson?!" As soon as I heard Percy's last name I put on my invisibility cap, and ran to the yelling.
When I got there I saw that new camper and chad standing in a ring of campers. Chad looked pissed and the new kid looked calm... Well as much as I could tell with him wearing all that black cloth. I mean seriously it's like 85° out here and he's in a black ninja suite.
"Are you so stupid that you don't know to bow in my presence when I choose to speak with you?" Chad said angrily. The new kid just stood there, not moving or even blinking. He stood as still as a statue. The only sign he was living was the smooth movements of his chest as he breathed.
"Are you death along as stupid? I am talking to you!" Chad yelled, still in anger. The new kid turned and started to walk away.
"Awwwww... Is the little ninja gonna walk back to his mommy?" Chad said in a mocking voice.
The new kid stopped in his tracks. Chad seized the opportunity and tried to humiliate him more.
"I don't see how any mother could love somebody as stupid as you!" Chad said making the new guy clench his fists, and cause a small amount of grass at his feet to turn yellow.
"Awww. Did I hurt your feelings? Well it's not my fault that you killed your mom with that ugly face of yours. I bet that's why you don't wear anything other than that bed sheet huh?" The kid stood there and clenched his fists more. The amount of grass that turned yellow grew causing a big circle of grass to turn yellow.
The closer to the center the more yellow it turned. Under his feet the grass was a brownish black and seemed to continue to get darker. "Did your slut of a mother ever have time for a freak like you? Or did she not have enough time in between men?" Chad said.
The kid turned and walked right over to chad. "I challenge you too a d-ack!" Chad never got to finish his challenge for the new kid was holding him by the throat and looking at him face to face.
Chads face went from smug, to surprised, to pure horror in 3 seconds. The new guys face was hidden by his ninja suite except for his eyes which were golden when I first got here, but were now pure black. There was no iris, pupil, or sclera (the white part of your eye which is on the out side of your iris, which is the color of your eye. Your iris surrounds your pupil which is the black circle in the middle of your eye.), everything was black.
Chad was starting to whimper and cry. The new kid continued until a voice rang out getting everyone's attention.
"Zain! That's enough!" I turned to the sound of the voice and saw Chiron.
Zain turned his head and looked at Chiron. "Zain. What would your mother want?" Chiron said calmly.
Zain's eyes slowly started to change back to their original gold look. After a few seconds they were back to normal.
"Let him go Zain. He's not worth it." Chiron said. Zain held Chad for about 5 seconds before he released his grip letting him go.
Zain then faced the woods and walked off towards them leaving the rest of us campers stunned, and a huge circle of dead grass with ashes in the center.
A million questions started going off in my head but the biggest being: Who is Zain?
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Authors note: apparently Annabeth will not be silenced and must state her pov. I think I'm going to let it happen for it brings my oc Zain more into the story. If this doesn't start getting yall to start wondering or asking about Zain then I don't know what will. Please don't get upset for any ooc's. Also if there is anything you want to know just ask and I'll pm you with either the answer or my response. If your a guest I will respond in the authors note of the next chapter.
