Percy POV

I never wanted the walk through Seattle to end but sadly it eventually came to an end as we got to the edge of Seattle or at least to a less populated area.

We stopped and I whistled as loud as I could. Artemis looked at me strangely while Arwen, who was in Artemis' arms, was sleeping. I just smiled at Artemis mysteriously. I knew Arwen would love this.

After a few minutes we heard a whinnying noise and I looked up to see two pegasi flying. Arwen woke up at hearing the horses and just stared at them.

"What up boss?"

Blackjack said as he and his girlfriend/mate (What do you all think?), Queen, landed. Queen was a grey almost silvery colored Pegasus.

"Hey buddy long time no see." I said to him as I went up and rubbed his head. "Can you give us a ride to our camp?" I asked.

"Sure thing boss no problem Queen can take Artemis and I will take you and…" he started to say before he stopped and stared at Arwen who was staring back.

"The flying horsey can talk." she stated staring wide eyed at Blackjack. I laughed and said, "Yes this is my friend Blackjack. He offered to give us a ride, and the reason we can hear him is because he is a horse and our father made horses, so we can understand them."

Blackjack lowered his head as Arwen stuck her hand out and rubbed him between the eyes. "Hello princess." "Are we going to ride you?" she asked causing me to laugh again. "Of course, unless you are scared of heights?" I told her.

I then helped Artemis get up but knew I didn't have to but my mom taught me manners, so I helped her anyways, to which she blushed causing me to blush. "Thank you Percy," she said. "You're welcome, My Lady." I said, before helping Arwen onto Blackjack and then mounted him myself.

"Where to boss?"

Blackjack asked.

"Stop with the boss," I groaned, "Head west, we need to go to Ohanapecosh."

"Sure thing boss we will be there in a couple of hours."

As we traveled I got to know Arwen a little bit better. She was about eight years old, and her mom and her step dad, or as she said, "Fake dad," were killed by the monsters I had killed a few minutes before I got there. I grew angry, at them, and vowed to her that I would protect her no matter what.

As we flew I couldn't stop myself from staring at Artemis.

"Goddess on you mind boss?" Blackjack asked in a knowing tone.

"No, shut up and stop calling me boss." I said blushing.

We finally caught sight of the camp and landed. As the Hunters came over I picked up Arwen and held her while thanking Blackjack and Queen. "Think nothing of it Lord." Queen spoke.

Kendra came over and said, "Who are you? Are you Percy's sister? Why do your eyes look like whirlpools?"

"Kendra, quiet please, she is a little shy." I said as Arwen buried her face into my shoulder. I saw Artemis smile warmly at that. I looked around until I found Hannah, who was standing behind everyone out of the way. I walked toward her, and when I got to her said, "Arwen there is someone I want you to meet." Hannah came up, and said in a quiet voice, "Hello, I'm Hannah, Percy's little sister." I blushed as all the Hunters and Artemis smiled at that. "You're a daughter of Poseidon too?" Arwen asked. "No I'm not a daughter of any of the Gods, but Percy is our brother, so that makes you our sister." I stared in shock as the other Hunters nodded in agreement to what she said. Then I grinned, I was accepted by them, and it didn't take long at all.

Artemis POV

I watched as Percy went to Hannah, and introduced Arwen to her. I then was stupefied as I heard Hannah say that Percy was the Hunters' brother, and all the Hunters agreed even Phoebe, who I knew hated all men.

"Alright everyone go back to what you were doing." I said. "Percy can you start making dinner?"

"Um… My lady, I don't need to make it remember?" he said to me.

"Oh right well show Arwen around. Hannah shouldn't you be somewhere?" I said quickly to that Percy wouldn't see me blushing. "Yes, My lady, Percy was going to train with me some more." she said.

"Oh right I forgot about that." Percy said slapping his head, "Arwen do you want to watch us train after I show you around?"

I giggled when he slapped his head, because he looked so cute doing it. Get a hold of yourself you aren't supposed to like men. I thought to myself stopping. "Yes I do." she replied. What an adorable little sister Percy has. She is just as cute as he is handsome. Whoa, get a hold of yourself, you really need to talk to Aphrodite about this. "I will be back in a while there is someone I need to talk to." I told them.

Percy POV

After Artemis flashed away I showed Arwen the camp. I carried her in one arm while with the other I held Hannah's hand. Our first stop was where the Hunters kept the wolves and falcons. The wolves came and acted like little puppies in front of Arwen, which I was shocked about, because they didn't seem to like me at all. "They have never done that before with anyone except Lady Artemis." I heard a voice. I looked and saw Phoebe standing watching with two falcons on either shoulder. "I guess she is just an animal person." I said. Arwen played with a little dog, who Phoebe told me was a Northern Inuit. When we left the little puppy wanted to follow, but I wasn't so sure about that. "Phoebe, can you hold the little guy while we leave?" I asked Phoebe. She seemed shocked that I would ask her for help but she came over and picked up the little pup, and held him as we left.

Next we went to the Archery range and watched some of the Hunters shoot. Thalia tried getting me to shoot, but I refused. After that we went to a clearing not far away and Hannah and I sparred while Arwen sat on a rock in the middle, watching. I taught Hannah more, including several disarming maneuvers.

We stopped around 6 o'clock and went to clean up. "Dinner time!" I shouted. Instantly all the girls just appeared at the table. I laughed knowing they liked the food. Again I noticed the only open seat was next to Artemis, I blushed again as the girls laughed. "Hannah will you sit next to me?" I asked as I went to go sit there with Arwen on my knees. The Hunters slid down to make room for Hannah. I turned to Arwen and asked her what she wanted to eat. Her reply was instant, "Meat loaf and mashed potatoes." I snapped my fingers and plates of it appeared in front of everyone. At that moment Artemis appeared and say down looking rather beside herself. "Are you okay My Lady?" I asked concerned.

"Yes, yes I am fine." she said her face red.


Artemis POV

I just got back from talked to Aphrodite and thinking.

Flashback

After I talked to Percy I flashed myself to Aphrodite's palace (or is it Temple? Let me know and I will fix it.) I needed to have a serious chat with her. As I went to knock on her door, it flew open and there she was pulling me in. "Oh you love him isn't that so adorable?" she said in a high pitched voice.
"Aphrodite, if this is your fault, I swear to Hades that you will not like the consequences." I growled angrily at her as my face heated up.

"Oh no I have nothing to do with this. This is true love. You love him, and he loves you." she said gleefully. "Wait, he loves me too?" I asked hopefully. "Well of course, he does. All your Hunters know it." Aphrodite spoke like it was obvious, which I guess to everyone except me it was. "Well thanks, that answers my questions. And don't tell anyone about this." I said leaving the "or else" unstated. "You better tell Percy quick though that you like him because I doubt he will wait." she said suggestively. "Stay away from him or I will send you to Tartarus the hard way." I spoke vehemently causing her to flinch and shrink back. Then I flashed to my favorite park.

I arrived on top of a large pile of rocks which is in the middle of Yellowstone. (I don't know if there is or not, but in my story there is.) There was no one around except for a couple grizzlies and deer, which after looking at me bowed and went on their way. I sat there for hours just thinking about my feelings for Percy. Finally I flashed back to camp before everyone got too worried about me. Upon arrival I saw all the Hunters about to eat, so I sat down next to Percy. "Are you okay My Lady?" he asked. He is such a caring person. as my face flushed red as aloud I said, "Yes, yes I am fine."


Percy POV

As the Hunters and I ate I kept getting the feeling of being watched. I kept glancing around but couldn't see anything.

"Is something wrong Percy?" Hannah asked noticing me look around.

"No, no its alright." I said aloud. Then I muttered under my breath, "Artemis, don't be surprised but we are being watched." Don't ask me how I knew she could hear me, I just knew.

She looked at me with wide eyes clearly started but then nodded at me, as she continued to eat. "What are we going to do?" she asked.

"Act normal I found where he is. He is in the tall tree on top of the waterfall. I will say I have to go to the bathroom and circle around and capture him." I told her.

"Okay be safe Perseus." she said genuinely worried for me. I was shocked and blushed that she cared. "I will." I whispered then louder said, "Arwen can you sit with Artemis while I go to the bathroom?"

"Yes big brother." she said softly. I smiled at that and handed her to Artemis.

Then I made my way to the woods like I was going to the bathroom. Once I was out of sight of the spy I decided to try out my powers that my Uncle blessed me with. I shadow traveled behind the spy and spoke in a low, dangerous voice, "Who are you and why are you watching the Hunters?"

He turned surprised to find me in the tree with him. He jumped down rather agilely which surprised me because I thought he was just a normal demigod but maybe he was a monster. I jumped into a shadow as he ran off and appeared right in front of him and grabbed him. "Now who are you, and why were you watching the Hunters?" I demanded from him.

"My name is Cole Nightshade, and I am looking for my sister. Now leave me alone!" he finished yelling right before he broke my loose grip which was loose because of what he said, and he transformed into a wolf.

"Zoe Nightshade is your sister?" I asked in wonder. He was growling, but when he heard my say "Zoe," he perked up and transformed right back into a human and said, "You know Zoe? Where is she? I have been looking for her for a long time."

I looked at him sadly, and said, "Look up at the starts. You see the constellation that looks like a Hunter running across the sky?" he looked and found it and said confused, "Yes but I…" "That's Zoe. She died fighting her father. Artemis honored her by putting her up there."

"Did you know her well?" he asked. "No I only knew her for a few days, but she was a good friend, even though she probably hated me." I told him. "What is you story?"

He told me his story. He was a son of Atlas. He stayed with Selene before she faded, and was trained by her. She taught him to shoot moon beam arrows from a bow and Helios taught him how to use a spear, like his father before he too faded. After they both faded he traveled around looking for Zoe. During his travels, he got bit by Lycaon and got turned into a werewolf. He kept on wandering not really fitting anywhere, and always looking for his sister.

I just sat there and listened, thinking. "Chaos," I prayed silently, hoping he would hear me. "Already on it." he spoke in my head. "I was listening the whole time."

A bright light appeared in front of us and Zoe appeared. She looked around shocked, then when she saw her brother she ran to him crying tears of joy at seeing him. Then to my surprise, she hugged me and said, "Thank you Percy so much. Ouranos told me that Chaos wanted me, and sent me here."

"You're welcome, and I'm sure Artemis will be happy as well."

"Yes, I heard that she liked you too." she said her eyebrow raised, causing me to blush.

"We should go back to camp and I'll tell everyone, but wait until I call you so we can surprise her." I told them, to which they both agreed. I started walking back to the camp with them behind me. Boy was I going to have some fun with this. I thought to myself grinning.
