Thanks for the reviews and such. This chappie will hopefully be a good one, in your guys' eyes.
Artemis POV.
DUMB DIANA. Ever since I met Perseus, she wanted to take him from me. She always wants to just take over, and just kiss Perseus over and over again. I mean, he is pretty hot and stuff, but seriously? Good thing I am more powerful. The only way she could gain control is if I was in a weakened mind state. I walked to my cabin, and just had a mental argument with her.
'I can have Percy, since he isn't technically yours.' She argued. 'But uh if, you take control, what will people think of the "man-hating" Artemis?' I replied. 'But if we don't grab him, then somebody else might. I know Annabeth broke up with him, and he took it pretty well, but what if he likes Athena? I mean, Athena is in LOVE with Percy. And what if he falls for her, since she is like Annabeth?' 'FIRST OFF, there is no 'we' it is only me. And, sigh, I guess you're right. I should claim Perseus.' "Yes, score Diana! And can't you just call him Percy, you already call him Percy outside of this mental asylum." 'This is not an asylum! And I can call him whatever I want. 'Sure, this isn't a mental asylum, like how talking to yourself isn't crazy.' I ended the conversation to see something odd. Percy was handing Chiron, about 500 drachma?! I walked over and heard Chiron ask
"Percy, why is there a layer of mist around you?"
"Hmm? Oh yeah… Well, a while ago, Aphrodite blessed me, and as soon as it happened, she started chasing me. So I prayed to Hecate to use the mist to cover me up, and well, it worked."
"Why don't you just take off the mist?"
"Because, I don't know what will happen."
"Nonsense, take it off."
"Okay."
He then, what I guess, prayed to Hecate, and the mist came off. As soon as it did, he looked HOT! He looked like Eros, but hundred fold him. I immediately found myself lost in his eyes, but I looked at his face and it was chiseled out of marble. But even handsomer. Then I heard the alarm. The Alarm signaling an attack. I ran over to see Krios, Hyperion, and a Giant with a tattoo saying JB loves baby cakes. Then Perseus came over and said
"Nice to see you all again. Hyperion, I heard you leaked a little sap, did you wet yourself?
"SHUT UP! We only came here to, ah, torture you Percy. In front of everybody. If you do not accept, we will harm this camp. I swear on the River Styx that we will not harm this camp unless you deny this offer." Thunder boomed as Hyperion spoke that last part.
"Sure."
"Come here little hero."
I was internally yelling NO, but Percy walked over. As soon as this happened a dome encased them. Percy was forced into a chair and tied down with ropes. Hyperion then pulled out a knife and took off Percy's shirt. If not for the situation, I would have just stared at his chest but the torturing began. Hours of torturing happened, only just leaving enough room for Percy to live. Instead of screaming, he would only chuckle.
"Seriously? Tartarus was, like, so much better when it came to this. Go get some other weapons."
"HMPH. Krios and Joe Bob, stay here, I will retrieve more weapons." Hyperion huffed. As soon as he left, Percy asked
"Joe, my good cannibal giant, can it be my turn to torture now? You guys did it for HOURS." The giant, who must be Joe, said "Sure." And cut the ropes and gave Percy the knife. Krios yelled at the giant but it soon turned into yellow dust. Then Percy turned to Krios. He summoned a hurricane and ran at Krios, despite his weakened state. Krios pulled out a spear and charged. Percy then jumped over him and threw the knife at Krios' back. Krios fell over, paralyzed, and Percy pulled out Riptide. With one swift movement, Krios was dead. Hyperion then walked back, and was stunned. Percy used this and grabbed the fallen knife and threw it at his leg. Hyperion then screamed in agony, and charged Percy. Percy used Riptide and threw it at Hyperion. Hyperion blocked it, and then Percy roundhouse kicked Hyperion. Hyperion fell over and Percy stabbed him, turning him to dust. He then walked away to the lake and said
"Be back soon." And then he fainted into the water.
Percy POV
Damn, that was some torture. I mean, it SUCKED. Like down in Tartarus, I got worse from, every monster or titan in existence. So i built up a resistance. I basically can't feel pain, unless either, Tartarus is there, or if it is poison or super unbearable, like Ladon's bite. I woke up in the infirmary to see Artemis, Dad, Thalia, Nico and Chiron. I then plopped out of bed and walked to the middle of camp. Instantly, I realized I had no shirt on. Then a thousand squeals came (Camp Jupiter combined with Half-blood). And I was tackled by a thousand girls. I just felt my chest being touched all over. DAMN. I forgot to use the mist. Hmm, I know! I vapor traveled to my bed in the infirmary and saw a confused Thalia, Nico, Dad, Chiron, and Artemis, who was also blushing. I then prayed to Hecate and I felt mist come around my chest and body. Then a thousand girls came into the infirmary, and i hid beneath the covers. I slowly crept up to find the camp around me. Then Artemis asked
"Percy, what was that whole 'Tartarus' thing? If you don't mind me asking?"
"Oh that?" I replied and she merely nodded.
"Ok, so in Tartarus, I had to travel through Nyx's mansion and in the mansion, everything kind of, froze. Then, the manifestation of Tartarus came and he asked me 'Perseus, do you want to see your camp in ruins?' 'No.' I told him. He then said to come with him and I followed. Then a dome came around us, and it was sort of a time stopper. He then forced me into a chair and then, for what seemed like a year, he tortured me, bringing along help. Some of it I could stand, because my ex step father did it, like lemon juice and alcohol in my eye, or knives on me and inserting glass into it the open cuts and what not. But then monsters came, mostly because they were following me. And they branded their initials into me. So later on I was released, and hardly any pain could come to me. I only feel pain if a) Tartarus is there, b) It is poison, c) Or if it is really unbearable, like Ladon's or Hydra's bite. Then I came back and everything was normal. Now can I leave?" I finished, leaving a stunned crowd. I went to my cabin and put on a black shirt that hugged my muscles. I went outside and saw the camp and Thalia asked
"Percy, why can't we see the branded initials?" "Because, if I flex then they show. Like this." I said, pulling up my shirt sleeve and flexing my arms and the initials are now visible. They all stared at the initials in shock.
"Now can I leave?" I asked uncomfortable. I went to my cabin and went to sleep. Gods this was this was uncomfortable.
Artemis POV
I never knew Perseus 'DAMMIT! Call him Percy' went through so much. I was just shocked. I went to my cabin and pondered on Perseus. How could he seem so happy when he had a rough life? Did Perseus put on a fake image? Is his happiness because of his friends? Does he consider me a friend? Does he like me? I just wondered on that question for a while. He surely has more people going after him. And he is scared of me, right? I mean, he was scared to approach me when I was surfing. Or was he just scared to be castrated because of a slip of the hand? I mean, I could have understood it. 'Yeah right. You would have attacked him, with your old instincts.´ Diana argued. Shut up. I replied. Whatever. I walked to Thalia and asked her
"Do you want to do anything?"
"No. Actually, can we see Percy?" "Sure." I replied, a bit excited.
We walked to his cabin, and saw him pulling out, concealer? He applied it very, very well onto his sexy, sexy body, when he noticed us. He blushed in embarrassment and Thalia asked.
"Whoa Kelp Head, do you want to become a makeup person or something?"
He chuckled. "Nah, just when I was younger, I used my mom's concealer to cover the scars on my body. As he finished that sentence, I remembered what he said. Thalia spoke, guilty
"So Percy, wanna do something?"
"Sure, but no need to feel guilty. The bastard step father, Gabe, helped me, in ways. So, want to play monopoly?" mentioned person said.
"Sure." Thalia and I replied
"Ok, it will be siblings against siblings, since you guys are daughters of Zeus."
"Ok, but who will you play with?" I asked. He somehow traveled away and five minutes later, he brought a cyclops. I pulled out my bow.
"DON'T SHOOT! Tyson here is nice. And he'll be my partner." We said it was okay, and we started playing.
Time skip to the third round.
"We win!" Percy said triumphantly. Gods, it was only the third round and we lost.
"Yeah, but Tyson here carried you." Thalia replied. Percy was about to say something but Tyson interrupted him.
"No, this is carrying Percy." He said, picking up Percy.
"No Tyson, she means that you basically did everything." Percy said
"Oh. Well I did, you are bad." Tyson replied. Thalia chuckled and I too.
"Shut up. Anyway, I will take you back, and have a little talk with your boss." Percy stated
"Thank you, brother." Tyson replied and off they went. I went over to Percy's bed and just took in his scent
"You really like him, huh?" Thalia asked. "Yeah, I really do. He is created to literally oppose males." "Yeah I like him too. Not in that way, but as in a cousin way. I do like him."
Then Percy walked with a mischievous smile saying "Ah Thalia, talking about a certain Death Breath?" Thalia blushed deeply, and said
"Shut up." I was confused, until I realized it. Thalia liked somebody. Thalia. I was about to get involved when Percy shrugged and said. "C'mon get over it. Fine. Well, see ya guys later." We were about to leave when I was taken over, probably by Diana. She said, really fast.
"Percy do you want to go on a date?" It took him a moment, but he said sure. I saw shock in his eyes.
"Sure?" "OK. SEE YOU AT 8!" I replied, extremely happy in Diana and Artemis forms.
That's the end of this chappie. I know, a new chappie! Yay. I finally got to the date. Reviews are like, with constructive criticism. Hate or not, and see if I care or not. See ya!
