Him being Artemis's Guardian's kind of cliche, wasn't it?
Disclaimer:
The Olympians were quizzically looking at the cloaked boy lying down on the silver wolf. The wolf was growling and his eyes, black where the white should be, were green little orbs.
The cloaked boy stood up right away looking back and forth at the throne room
"Gamiseme Tora" the cloaked boy, Percy, half growled and half groaned. He basically said 'f**k me now'
"Language," Hestia says gaining the attention of Percy while Mars just laughed. Percy's eyes widened and he bowed to his two patrons.
"Should you not address me first, boy?" Zeus says. Ah, dejavu, Percy felt. Percy wanted to snort, but he knew his patrons would not want that.
"Lord Zeus" Percy says exaggerating a bow. Of course, Zeus didn't realize this and thought he was flattering him, while the other 'Shays' were snickering mentally.
"Who are you?" Zeus asks
"I am Shay"
Zeus groaned. Percy had to smirk. Of course, they would hardly see it. You see, in the Pack, when it came to clothes, you could were anything. Be stark naked if you like. But there were some mandatory things though. For example, you have to always wear. Secondly, you have to have a cloth that wraps around the bottom half of your face (like Kakashi from Naruto XD). And then you have to wear these awesome biker's goggles. The goggles were so that they could not see your eye colour. Also, you have to wear this vanguards on your wrist with the symbol of the boar on fire. And lastly, when around someone that is not from your pack, wear the hood over your head.
"Call me Alpha since I assume every one of the Pack has introduced themselves as Shay" Percy says
"I demand that you show me your faces" Zeus says in a very I-own-you-so-obey-me tone
This enraged Alpha. Wow, just because you're the king of the gods meant that he could order everyone around.
"I do not take orders from you" Alpha says venomously
"How dare you! I am King of the Gods!" Zeus bellowed.
"But I am not a god, am I? And so, you are not my king" Alpha shoots back, turns back to his Pack and every one of them, except the boy with the white lion, disappeared in a column of flames.
"I did not permit them to leave! Where are they?!" Zeus exclaimed. Everyone was getting nervous for the kid. Seriously, no one does that to Zeus without getting burned.
"I am not obliged to answer to a- -" Alpha caught his anger and took a deep breath before he could insult the king. "I am not obliged to answer you"
"You insolent- -!" Zeus says taking out his lightning bolt. The other Olympians eyes widened and they felt sorry for the kid.
On the other hand, Alpha calmly looked over to Mars and Hestia and raised an eyebrow (his patrons can see through the cloak) as if to ask, should I take the lightning bolt or should I show off?
His patrons shook their heads and Alpha nodded. He was not allowed to show off. And so, he stood still and took the hit.
Well, took what got through the column of fire that Hestia put up in between them. But even with the fire, he was still blasted to the door of the throne room.
"I shall not allow you to force them to reveal their faces nor shall I allow you to hurt my champion!" Hestia exclaimed
"As king, I order you to- -!"
"Try brother! Try to order me and I shall teleport my champion and Beta, his second in command (the kid with the white lion) to a place that you shall never find! And when I do, I shall suffer you're wrath and you will have to wait for years before I am able to reform and be able to get answers, but by that time, even I will not be able to know where they are because they have fled on their own! And if you force me to unmask them, I shall break my oath bound by the River Styx not to reveal them unless with their consent and the same consequence as the first will happen!" Hestia bellowed.
Mars smirked. Silence drew in the room at Hestia's sudden outburst
"She is right father" Athena broke the silence and the other gods gape at her for agreeing to something that her father did not like. Athena raised an eyebrow. "It's obvious, isn't it? Look at Mars. They had already planned this if ever this scenario happens. I bet Mars even planned where they would be teleported and taught them all the back up plans"
Processing this, Zeus seemed to realize he has no choice to let this group go. Zeus sighed and looked sternly at the silver cloaked Alpha.
"I shall let you go, but I want you to swear your loyalty to me so that I am sure that you do not harm the good" Zeus says.
Alpha let out a humourless laugh. "You do not deserve my loyalty" which enraged Zeus further
Hestia just bowed her head because honestly she doesn't know what to do, allow her champion to be disrespectful to her King or be angry at him for being disrespectful, doing both felt right.
"How dare you-!" Zeus was cut
"How dare I? How dare you! I have given you the years that shaped my life, and broken my life! And you tossed me like trash! Now you expect me to beg and be grateful that you would want me back?!"
"What are you talking about?! I do not know you!" Zeus bellowed
"Father, come down. He is a demigod. Most of my Pack are demigods" Mars announces
This causes some gasps from the Olympians
"Our children!"
"Hestia! You took away our children- -?!" The Olympians were cut by Mars
"Children that you had forgotten and left to dust! They had no home, not even at camp! We gave them a home and they love it! Do you know what they all shared whenever they first join my Pack?! They share resentment and hatred towards their so-called parents! And do you know what our Ace tells them?! He defends your names! He tells them, though different to some gods, Your parents love you. Whenever they seem otherwise, they have a reason. Some of them regret that we were born not because we're not allowed to be born, but because our parents feel like it is their fault that we are brought by the tragic fate of a hero. They all know this before we are born. It must mean that before we are born, they are already proud of us and think of us as a hero. Is it not a goddess and a god who has allowed me to make the Pack our family?"
Some of the gods and goddesses bowed their heads in shame. Alpha on the other hand scoffed. He only meant half of it. What he meant was, and he knew that the members of the Pack got the meaning too, that you shouldn't judge your parents and the gods and goddesses first. Some of them are not what they seem, but if they are what they seem, leave them to rot because they don't deserve you!
Alpha decided to break the silence
"I have served you once, you have used me then, and I shall not allow it again. Lady Hestia has never wanted anything to hurt her family. Lady Hestia and Lord Mars are under your reign. I am under Lady Hestia and Mars's bidding. Is that not enough for you? Because if it's not, then I cannot give you anything anymore," Alpha growled and left out the part because if I do again, then there might not be left of me
Even Aku, Percy's wolf, growled. But what surprised him more was that Aku did not growl at Zeus but growled at Artemis. Artemis raised an eyebrow and the others' look suspiciously.
Aku growled some more and lunged at Artemis, all the while he grew larger and larger.
"AKU DON'T!" Alpha screamed too late. By then, Aku had grown at Olympian-puppy size and sat and snuggled comfortably at Artemis lap.
Percy could've just face palmed then and there. Some of the goddesses 'aw'ed. Way to break the tension
Zeus cleared his throat.
"Hestia, can you give me a list of some of your…groups accomplished missions and some of their next missions?" Zeus asks. Hestia hesitantly handed a scroll over
Zeus examined the scroll and made another scroll appeared as if comparing the two.
"I have decided to let you're…group- -"
"Our Pack" Mars supplied
"Yes, I have decided to let the Pack go. But to assure that they stay loyal, I shall evaluate them by having them Hunt with Artemis- -"
"WHAT!?"
"- -and it doesn't matter, because some of your hunts and the Pack's missions coincide anyway"
"BUT FATHER!"
And thus the heated argument of the daughter and father
They seemed to be talking telepathically because
Artemis was going red
Zeus was frowning and his eyebrows were meeting
Artemis became purple
Zeus had smoke coming from his ears
Artemis glared the most horrifying glare in history
And they glared at each other until Artemis sighed and nods.
"What about information of my son? Don't lie, Apollo can tell if you lie" Poseidon demanded
Alpha laughed inwardly, scoffed outwardly, and blazed in anger mentally. What son? He disowned him long before!
"I swear on the River Styx that what I've got is that he is alive, he hates most of you all that is here, wants to be left alone, and he thinks that you will never find him and I kind of believe him too" Alpha says in a rush and a smirk forms around his mouth. Well, it is true that Percy is alive, hates most of them, wants to be left alone, and Alpha really does think they won't be able to find them. Also, he only said 'what I've got' he never said 'all I know is'
Poseidon looked at Apollo who just nodded.
"Very well! This meeting is closed!"
