Chapter 6

Percy opened his eyes as he remembered what had just happened. He got up as he looked around and saw nothing but flames yet strangely none of the heat associated with it. "I see you have finally awoke Perseus Jackson" said a voice. Percy turned around to face the voice to find nothing but raging flames. "Who are you? Am I dead?" he asked as he looked for the owner of the voice. Then a majestic golden bird made out of fire appeared in front of him. It's eyes were red as rubies and it's wings were big and marvelous. "Are you a Phoenix?!" asked Percy as he admired the beauty of the bird. "Indeed I am, and to answer your previous question, you are quite alive." Percy looked confused "then why aren't the flames hurting me?" The Phoenix chuckled if that was even possible. "You never fail to amuse me. I am protecting you from the flames. Percy looked at him dumbfounded as he just let out one word "Oh."

"So I guess there's a reason I'm still alive?" said Percy. "Your quick to get to the point, I like that." Percy smiled "Well if I'm alive I would like to go and help out my friends, so I don't wish to spend any time here more than necessary." The Phoenix flapped his wings and rose into the air. "Haha ha, very well, but before you leave I would like to give you my blessing if you want it." Percy looked shocked. "Why me?" The Phoenix let out something that sounded like a laugh. "Well you amuse me Perseus, you don't want power yet you have tons of it. Any other man or even a god would be corrupted by it now but your pure heart and loyalty keeps it in control." Percy blushed from embarrassment. "Thank you Phoenix, I shall gladly accept your blessing." The Phoenix nodded it's head and flapped its wings sending a wave of flames at Percy which he absorbed. Percy felt power rush through him as he glowed in an orange light for a few seconds before it faded away. "You have almost all the powers that I have now Perseus." Percy looked at the Phoenix and smiled "Thank you, but what powers did I exactly receive?"

The Phoenix flapped it's wings rising higher "you have power over the flames now, and since I like you I threw in a bonus for you" As the Phoenix said that out of Percy's back unfolded majestic white wings that set on fire. "Wow, this is so cool!" said Percy as he did a 360 and trying to see where the wings came out from. "And one more thing Perseus, you have gained my powers of reincarnation. So when you die you will be able to reincarnate yourself. The price for that power however is that you become younger every time by twenty years, but since you have power over time it will cancel out the effect and will not affect your age. Lastly, the power can only be used every 150 years. Percy looked stunned as he heard that. "Now you must go my boy, your friends are in danger." Percy snapped out of it as he remembered about his friends. "Thank you again Phoenix" Percy said as he watched the Phoenix disappear. "Don't betray my expectations for you" said the Phoenix before completely disappearing. Percy looked up from where he fell as he extended his wings. "Gotta go kick some ass" he said as he flew up with a great flap of his wings.

Artemis POV

"PERCY!" I screamed as he fell down into the sudden fissure of flames. How could this have happened I thought to myself as I felt like my heart was going to get ripped out. "Why am I feeling this way?" I thought to myself as I heard another part of me say "Because he's special." I was surprised that I even thought of that. "Did I like Percy?" I quickly shrugged the thought away because it had distracted me and almost killed me from the dragon's fire breath. "Man that thing is annoying" I thought to myself as I looked back to the spot where I last saw Percy. There was still no sign of Percy. I looked away with sadness in my eyes. I saw Thalia coming towards me as she fought off one of the monsters and drove the dragon back with her shield. "Milady, we're being overwhelmed" she said as she got to me. "I know Thalia but we must hold on, I know Percy is still alive I believe in him." Thalia looked at me and nodded. "We'll have to teach him a lesson when he gets back." I smiled as I stabbed a monster. "He wouldn't want to do this again after my lesson" Thalia smirked as she engaged a group of monsters.

Then out of the pit of flames something on fire flew out at an insane speed. "What is that?" I heard Thalia shout. "I don't know" I said as I was trying to identify the being. I almost tripped when I saw who it was. "It's Percy!" I shouted. "What? But that guy has wings and is covered in flames!" said Thalia as she looked up at the hovering figure. "I know but that's definitely him." Thalia frowned "He better explain all this later." I smiled darkly"oh he'll talk, he'll talk."

Percy POV

As I flew out I suddenly shivered violently, which was weird cause I was on fire. Shrugging it off I looked down on the battlefield. The hunters were greatly outnumbered and wouldn't last long. I looked at the dragon who was flying towards looking pissed that someone else was flying besides him. I charged at him as I pulled out chasm and riptide. The dragon roared and let out a breath of fire as I blocked it with my wings and absorbed the power feeling the fire regenerate my strength. The dragon looked confused as he saw me unharmed and still hovering in one spot. I smiled and set my swords on fire as I charged again. I slashed at the dragon as the sword merely went through him. I looked at the dragons body confused. The dragon had no body! It's body was a huge flame. Then a thought came into my head. 'What beats fire easily? Water! And thats something that I can use with ease.' I searched the ground looking for water until I found a river running through a nearby forest. I raised my hands as I watched the water lift into the air and gather into a huge water bubble. It increased in size as I gathered more water. When I had finished I had water bubble big enough to swallow the dragon which was exactly what I needed. I turned to the dragon who was watching me as it seemed to turn a paler color if that was possible. I grinned as I sent the water bubble at the dragon and watched it turn into steam as it cleared leaving not a trace behind. I looked at the ground as I saw the monsters retreating. I sighed as I felt the effects of power over usage hit me. I felt myself going numb as I flapped my wings one more time and felt myself beginning to fall to the ground.

I woke up in as I looked around to see that I was in the infirmary. I tried to get up but I felt something heavy on my chest. I looked down to see auburn hair spread out on my chest. I almost let out a gasp as I realized that it was Artemis. She looked beautiful in her sleep. Her peaceful face was smiling as she slept. I layed back on my pillow as I tried not to wake Artemis up. "Did Artemis stay here the whole time I was out?" I felt a smile appear on my face. "Why did that make me happy? Did I like Artemis?" However before I could find the answer to my question I felt Artemis stir as she opened her eyes and got up letting out a cute yawn. She noticed me as she yawned and blushed. "How long where you awake?" she asked while still blushing. I smiled "not long I just woke up a minute ago. So, how long was I out?" I asked. "Two days" I felt my jaw drop "What?!" I couldn't believe it, I was asleep for two days. "You overused your powers and your body needed to rest and get the energy back." Then the most unexpected thing happened, Artemis both slapped me hard enough to knock something loose then hugged me tightly. I was just sitting there not knowing what to do. "Don't you dare do that again Percy." I hugged her back "Sorry, I didn't think it would affect me that much." I was consumed by the smell of her hair. It smelled heavenly and gave of a scent of pinecone trees. "Why do girl's hair always smell so good and why is Artemis worried about me so much?" I thought to myself as I felt Artemis break away from the hug. "Well I'm happy that you're awake, I'll come by to check on you later." She left hurriedly as I was still trying to grasp what just happend.

I walked out of the infirmary and looked around to see that the sun has started to set in the horizon. I saw Thalia walking to the campfire and decided to go tell her that I'm okay. I caught up to her "Hey Thals" I said as she stopped and turned around. When she saw me she talked me into a hug. "I thought you would never wake up again" I smiled even though she couldn't see my face. "I did say I wouldn't leave remember, and I always keep my promises." So how the heck did you get those powers?" said Thalia as we broke apart. I laughed sheepishly "I totally forgot about that until you just remembered." Thalia smiled "At least you're still the same."

"Here lets head to the campfire and I'll tell everyone because I'm pretty sure you're not the only one who wants to know and I don't feel like explaining more than once." When we got to the campfire most of the hunters were already there preparing for dinner as a boar was roasting over the fire. I looked at it hungrily, remembering that I didn't eat anything for two days. The hunters were looking at me as I managed a small "Hey." As soon as I said that they bombarded me with questions. Thalia tried to stop them but there were just too many of them to handle with just the two of us. Luckily Artemis came "Everyone leave Percy alone for now he's still recovering and I'm sure that he will explain everything during dinner." she said as she looked at me. I nodded in response as I sat down on one of the logs. "Okay hunters lets eat." she said as she went to cut the boar. She came back with two plates and gave me one of them. "Here, try it it's good." I took it and thanked her. She sat down next to me which gave me some glares from the newer hunters and grins from the older ones, I just ignored them and bit into the meat. It was wonderful, the texture of the meat was perfect and the meat itself was juicy, it had great seasoning to go along with it and some grilled vegetables on the side. Artemis smiled as she saw my expression which made me blush. After we all finished eating we sat around the campfire. "So, Percy care to explain to us how you survived and got those powers?" said Artemis. I looked at her and then looked at the fire. I started to tell them what happened after I fell into the pit of fire as I heared some of the hunters gasp throughout the story. When I finished everyone was silent except the sound of the forest. Then Thalia decided to break the silence. "You got blessed by the Phoenix?" she asked with a shocked expression as she was still trying to process at what I just told everyone.

"Yeah, that how I got the fire powers and the wings." Thalia shook her head "I'm surprised Zeus still didn't zap you for flying in his domain." I laughed "Don't worry Zeus can't touch this." Thalia laughed as she remembered what I had told her happened on Olympus. "That's true I guess." I looked back at the hunters and Artemis who were still quite and just looking at us. "So, yeah guys uh-mm, I'll just go to sleep I guess, I still don't feel as good as I could be." The hunters said goodnight to me as I left for my tent. I was walking to my tent as I heard someone catch up to me. I turned around to see Artemis walk up to me. "Do you need something?" I asked her. "Oh no I just wanted to talk to you." I nodded "would you like to come in?" Artemis nodded as we walked into my tent.

When we came in I sat on the couch as patted the seat next to me. "So what did you want to ask me?" I asked her when she sat down next to me. "Can I see your wings?" she asked me which surprised me. "Sure" I said as I extended my wings which caused my shirt to rip. "Dang it, that was my favorite shirt." I said as I took off my shirt forgetting Artemis was there. I remembered she was there and looked at her to see her staring at me and blushing. I blushed in return "Sorry, I forgot you were here." She looked away "It's alright, just go put on a shirt." I nodded and ran up the stair to go grab another shirt. I grabbed a shirt and made two cuts on the back for my wings and put it on as I went back downstairs. I came downstairs as I saw Artemis browsing through my movie collection. "Do you wanna watch something?" I asked her. She looked at me as she got up. "Yeah, I want to watch this as she walked up to me and handed me a copy of Guardians of the Galaxy. "That's a good movie" I said as I walked to the DVD player and put the movie in. "So, can I see your wings?" I heard Artemis say as I got up. "Oh yeah, sorry I forgot." I said as I extended my wings and smiled that my idea worked. "Artemis walked up to me and put her hand on one of my wings. "May I?" she asked as I nodded in return. I felt her hand stroke my wing as I shivered at her touch. Her hand was smooth and warm as I felt it go down my wing feeling pleasure at her touch. "Thanks" Artemis said as she let go leaving a feeling of disappointment in me. She set on the couch and pressed play to start the movie. I sat down next to her as she took my wing and wrapped it around herself like a blanket. I looked at her surprised at her actions. However she didn't seem to mind at all and just watched the movie. I turned to the screen to watch the movie. After halfway throughout the movie I felt my eyelids get heavier and found myself drifting off into sleep.

When I woke up I found my face right next Artemis's and my wings wrapped around her. I almost yelped at the scene in front of me. I tried to get up but my wing was under Artemis so it was hopeless. I just laid there looking at Artemis's sleeping face. She was beautiful and had a smile on her face as she slept. Her lips were slightly pink and looked really soft. I started to lean in slowly and right when I was about to kiss her I felt Artemis stir. I quickly leaned back and closed my eyes pretending to be asleep. I felt Artemis wake up and yelp as she fell to the floor. I quickly got up and looked down to see Artemis on the floor rubbing her butt. "Are you alright?" I asked her as I reached out my hand and helped her get up. "Didn't expect you to be sleeping next to me" said Artemis. I blushed as I turned off the tv which was still on from last night. "We must of have fallen asleep while watching the movie yesterday." I said as I headed for the kitchen to prepare breakfast. "Why didn't you wake me up?" she asked surprisingly not even caring about what happened. "Well you were sleeping so peacefully I didn't want to wake you up" I said. She blushed and nodded as she sat down on a chair. "Do you want breakfast?" I asked her. "Sure, can I have some bacon and eggs?" I nodded as I opened the fridge and got out the ingredients. After we ate breakfast we went for the door. "Wait, don't leave though my tent the hunters will kill me." Artemis nodded and flashed away as I exited out of my tent.

As I walked out I saw that Artemis was already walking around and telling her hunters to pack up their things. "Where are we going?" I asked her as I walked up to her. She turned around "We're leaving for camp half-blood to drop off my hunters" she said as I realized I was staring at her lips. I quickly looked up into her eyes before asking "Oh, why? Are you going somewhere?" She nodded "Yes, I was asked to check on the Amazons to see if they will join us in this war." I nodded "I'll come with you" She shook her head "It's alright go to camp I'll handle this myself." I smiled "trust me I'll come in handy since the amazons know me already." Artemis nodded "Alright pack your stuff and meet me here in five minutes." I left to my tent and turned my tent back into a cube as I threw it into my dimensional storage.

When everyone was ready Artemis teleported her hunters to camp as we walked off into the forest. "Why are we waking there?" I asked Artemis as we walked through the forest. "Oh, I just wanted to make this journey a bit more fun" she said. I smiled "fine by me." We walked through the forest for a few hours until we reached a meadow. It was beautiful and filled with flowers of all sorts. "Let's stop for lunch" she said. "We don't have any food though" I said. Artemis smiled as she made a bunch of food appear in front of us. "You were saying?" she said with a smirk on her face as I stared at the food. "That's handy" I said as I sat down and grabbed a sandwich. Artemis sat down next to me and grabbed one as well. "Did you make these?" I asked. "Yeah, are they not to your liking?" she asked as she looked at me. "No, their great. If I were to compare they would be as good as my moms cooking and my mom is the greatest cook I knew." Artemis blushed at what I said as I fondly yet sadly remembered my Moms cooking, knowing I would never have it again. I carefully tried to keep my expression from changing, not allowing Artemis to see how much this was effecting me.

After we finished eating Artemis made the food disappear as we went on forward. After walking for a while we reached the a town. "So how are we going to get there now?" I asked her. "We're going by train" she replied with a smirk on her face. I followed her through the crowded streets until we reached the train station. "Seriously?" I said as I chuckled. "She laughed "yes, unless you want to go steal a car." I smiled "I can if you want." Artemis gave me a glare "we're not stealing any cars." I laughed "whatever you say Arty." She gave me another glare before buying some tickets for the train. We got on to the train when it came and continued our trip.
