Right here we are with The Warrior Champion of Hestia Chapter 2

Let's get started

Disclaimer: I do not own the world of Percy Jackson, I only own any original plot ideas that I may think of and I also own my OC.

Timeskip 5 years

Two teens were in the middle of a forest clashing in battle, SLASH CLANG CLANG SLASH went their blades, meeting in the middle blades locked the two teens stare at each other until a square of mist appears and the face of Hestia appears in the mist. "James, Percy Hades needs your help" James and Percy release the tension on their blades before James sheathes his katana and Percy's blade shrinks down into a pen that he puts in his pocket.

James turns to the Iris Message "What does Hades need? My Lady"

"He needs the two of you to go to a boarding school that he sent his children to, he has heard reports of monsters going to capture them"

Percy and James look at each other then back to Hestia and they say in unison "We'll do it"

Hestia smiles "I knew that you two would, but be careful my niece and her hunters are also in the area, Hades is also sending the furies to aid you, while he doesn't want his children taken by Kronos' forces, he also does not want either them or you two to be taken to Olympus either."

Both Percy and James smile fondly, while Hades has become more of a father to Percy than Poseidon had ever been, James saw Hades as more of an uncle than a father, and based on what Hestia said it appears that Hades shares the sentiment.

James speaks out "How are we gonna get to the school they're at?"

Hestia replies "Hades will take care of it, I'm sorry but I must go now, farewell you two and good luck"

With those words the misty face of Hestia disappears and a vortex of shadow appears in its place.

James turns to Percy "Guess that's our ride huh Perc"

Percy looks at the portal and walks through while saying with a smirk "Yes it is bro, yes it is"

On the other side

James and Percy step through the other end of the vortex to see the three furies waiting, the main sister steps forward and speaks with a shrill voice "We have located Lord Hades' children, they are currently in the Gymnasium by the bleachers, they have dark silky hair and pale olive skin, once you get near, you James should be able to sense the power of Lord Hades in them, be wary there are also three demigods who are here because of a satyr"

James moves towards the school reaching out with his senses "I sense them, the three demigods are a daughter of Athena, a daughter of Zeus and a son of Poseidon, Perc we should wait here, I reckon the monster will have also sensed the demigods and will proceed to run with Hades' children, so if we wait here by this cliff, this will most likely be the place of collection for the children…. Hang on I also sense a strong presence deep in the forest… It's most likely Lady Artemis and her hunters….. Shit they're a lot closer than I thought."

5 minutes later

After waiting a few minutes James reaches out with his senses, "The monster has got Hades' children and is bringing them here, right then; I've thought up a plan, the monster can be easily dispatched however the real risk comes from Lady Artemis and her hunters as after seeing us they will most likely try to drag us to Olympus, so Alecto I need you and your sisters to hide in the shadows and be prepared to grab the three demigods that were brought by the satyr. They will be a good bargaining chip if need be." After James finishes explaining his plan, a clean shaven man wearing a black military style uniform walks towards the cliff dragging the two children of Hades with him, James turns to Percy "Let's go bro"

Percy nods and Percy uncaps his blade Riptide while James unsheathes the Dragon Sword and both step out of the shadows in front of the monster "Sorry to interrupt but the father of those children wants them home ASAP, so we can do this two ways, you let the kids go and you will be spared or you try and fight and get your ass beat into oblivion"

However the monster just snarls at them before a spiked tail comes flying towards the two, both roll to opposite side to avoid and James just smirks "The hard way it is"

James shimmers out of view before reappearing behind the monster however before James can end the monster, silver arrows come flying out of the woods narrowly missing James' head by a few millimetres impacting into the monster before it stumbles back and shifts into its true form. A manticore with his human head, the body of a red lion, bat wings and his spiky tail.

James whistles "Your true form's even uglier than ya human form and that's saying something"

By this time the three demigods had also arrived along with a large group of girls in silver parkas with silver glows, the immortal hunters of Artemis had come out in the open to observe the battle.

The manticore growls out "If I can't kill you then I'll make sure to take of some of those annoying hunters" with those words he sends his tail out towards a hunter at the front of the group with a silver tiara on her head.

As it passes by her, a 12 year old with auburn hair who based on information from Apollo, both James and Percy knew that it is the preferred form of the goddess Artemis cries out "NO ZOE MOVE!"

Zoe just stands paralyzed with fear as the tail comes closer towards, she closes her eyes expecting to feel the tail pass through her but instead she hears her Lady Artemis gasp. In front of her with the spiked tail lodged in his stomach is James, however instead of showing any sign of pain on his face, he has a smirk that sends shivers down everyone's spines, he lets out a dark chuckle "Ya know. I knew monsters were supposed to be stupid but based on what I've seen you take the fucking cake, I was gonna give you a quick death but the fact that you were trying to be a god damn coward and attack someone else while your battle is with me" He lets out a sigh before a smirk makes its way onto his face before letting out another dark chuckle "It really makes my blood boil, why don't you feel the flames" With those words he raises his hand out of his palm comes a stream of fire that fly's into the manticore and starts to burn him. James just stand there emotionless keeping the flames going for a few seconds even as the manticore's screams reach his ears, he ends the fire still emotionless, he slowly reaches and pulls the manticore's tail out of his chest, with the tail removed tendrils moving and knitting and closing the wound leaving a jagged scar down his chest visible through his jacket, he slowly walks towards the manticore kneels down and stares into his eyes and speaks, "I didn't spare you out of the goodness of my heart, the only reason you still live is that you could potentially have useful information that could help Olympus"

He turns to see the Goddess Artemis in front of him, he quickly drops into a bow as does Percy, with a smirk on his face James says "What can we do for you Lady Artemis?"

Right then I reckon this is a good place to leave as a cliffhanger, I know I may sound slightly desperate with but I need reviews, the insight that a reviewer can give would be very valuable in making the story better, and you may also find mistakes that I myself have missed, as for the 5 year Timeskip I think I'll keep most of it a secret for now, I may elaborate later on in the story

Anyway thank you, this is JGGod5000 signing off, see ya next chapter
