Author's Note ~ Alright sweet people answered this time! So 5 people answered correctly, but not all of them put who's POV they wanted next :`( Alright so although WiseGirl1993 (love her!) was the first person to answer and add a request, I'll be doing Kylie's request since she was next. I've already done WiseGirl1993 request so the next chapter will have your request, alright? Cool?
As requested by Kylie...

I love you, how can three words have so much power? They make you go weak in the knees and for once in your life, you fall. Girls keep on falling and guys move at the last second. I tried to save Annabeth from falling, but in all honesty I couldn't accept her into the hunt.
As much as I wanted to, I couldn't. I can't allow girls who are in love into my hunt, it's an ancient law. But, I suppose since Perseus Jackson is the person she fell for, I still admire her. She has the strength of a goddess and he has the brain of Neanderthal. But, he also has a quality I've never seen in a boy. Loyalty; he was ready to pull out his sword and fight me because I wouldn't let him go after Annabeth.
Although he lacks very much in the respect department, he's reliable and trustworthy. He tried to save Zoë and Bianca, for that I had to attempt to like the boy. I trust Annabeth and her decision to trust him. I watch them at night, as I'm driving the moon to the sky. I know that Perseus fell into Tartarus with her as do all the gods but what they don't pay attention to is the after-effects.
As I'm going over Camp Half-Blood, I hear horrible heart-wrenching screams. So much pain, sorrow, and emotion in one sound, it's almost over-whelming. The first few times I heard it I stopped to make sure everybody was ok. It was then I found out just how much young Perseus meant to Annabeth. Sure, there was something there before but now, the love is obvious I connection even I can't bring myself to hate.
Annabeth screams out terrified, but not of the monsters she thinks are attacking or the pain she could be feeling, no. She cries out because she thinks he has left her, I see him run into her cabin and soon all goes quiet. Perseus doesn't come out but Chiron knows nothing is happening. We all know he cares too much about her to do such a thing at a young age, especially when she's vulnerable.
That's another thing I admire about him. He has morals; he would go to the ends of the Earth for her and wouldn't think twice about it. When Annabeth wakes up screaming it hurts Perseus, I can feel it; as can everyone else who's around. He hates that in a way he's to blame, he's upset he couldn't save her from this pain.
Perseus Jackson is a man who is absolutely nothing like Hercules.
Sorry guys, no question this time. I already have a request for the next chapter, once I get that done I'll post another question.
Post Script ~ Should I keep updating like I am now, or be mean and make you guys wait a week for an update?
Post Post Script ~ Sorry this is short, Artemis was a little hard for me to...capture.
