Alright...quick note...I have no idea how dates work, my perception of a date is the stories I've heard from my sister, which usually includes: going to a movie theater, and...nothing else. So this will be me 'wining it and hoping it turns out well', also since Percy and Artemis will be going into the mortal world for the date, you guys will be able to see how advanced the human race had become in 60-70 years. YAY!!! Okay, let's go. Though their date won't really start yet...you'll see.

3rd Person

Percy was in Artemis' room, as he didn't really have his own, he was currently wearing black jeans, a white t-shirt, dark green hoodies, and some tennis shoes. Artemis and Percy had decided that for their 'date' they were just going to go around the mortal world and enjoy a day without the stresses of the mythological world (as if that was possible). Of course, Percy also had a black chain necklace that was hidden under his hoodie.

It was a creation made for Aether's Angels (A/N I have to come up with a better name for them) which of course was usually white and obviously used by angels. His was on him when he received his wings, as it was a standard piece of angelic equipment, and was turned dark much like his wings.

The chain was what let angels fallen or not, hide their wings, it also contained their main armor and weapons, which for Percy were his black assassin's robe and uniform, his armored mask, and his double swords. He had trained in practically every weapon ever created, yet he had still found no other one he could wield like he used a sword, heck he even mastered the bow and arrow (that took a while) so he always kept them close. 

Artemis came out of the room she had been changing in (A/N I know your asking 'isn't she a Goddess? Can't she just go all *silver light* and be in a different outfit'...well yes...but it is for the plot!)

She was in jeans a tank top and a leather jacket with silver designs on it. Her hair was pulled back into a loose bun. It was a simple outfit, and Percy thought she rocked it.

"You know...you should wear outfits like that more often, I mean the hunter's uniform is great and all...but wow" 

Artemis' face took on a gold tint "Thank you, Percy, uh...you look good as well, what about your eyes...they are still you know...red, which is fine! It's just are mortals used to red eyes...oh wait the mist" She facepalmed at her own stupidity.

"Well a couple of years ago you would be right, but you forget, I'm probably the only immortal that has spent most of their life in the mortal world. It is strange but nowadays people actually dye and bleach their hair into extremely unusual colors, and colored eye contacts are extremely common, you and I can walk in Red and Silver eyes blazing, and be still considered completely normal, heck...half of the people we see might think our eye and hair colors are bland!"

"The mortal world has changed that much? I need to get out more" 

"Well, how about now?"

Artemis smiled and took Percy's hand "That would be delightful" and in a burst of silver and black, they were off to the mortal world.

-LINE BREAK-

They both arrived in a back alley, and almost instantly a group of people walked up to them, that wasn't even the strangest part, they all had on black tuxedos, and all had pitch-black hair with golden streaks. 

"Hello Artemis" they all spoke in sync...like at the same time...creepy "Who is this...I thought you didn't keep males for company?"

Artemis' skin seemed to be craking, sliver energy seeping out, "Who are you...how do you know who I am?!"

"Why you reek of godly energy...I couldn't resist coming over for a snack." 

"I am a goddess, you are no threat to me!"
