When the Demigods in Camp Half-Blood received the Prophecy, coincidentally the Olympians were also assembled as Apollo would then say the same prophecy as the Oracle Of Delphi...

The Gods soon panicked as Hephaestus grunted in anger, Ares being mildly upset as the boy that they trained was now in Gaia's Service.

Zeus, Athena, and Apollo soon looked to the floor of Olympus in shame as they were the ones who commanded or performed Artemis's mindwipe...

Some looked at each other but Hephaestus ignored everyone, even when Aphrodite called him repeatedly.

Ares looked mildly upset due to his student now going against Olympus, despite his rough edges, he does actually care about Shirou, he sensed the boy when Shirou managed to stop wars from several other places, but even so, he couldn't change his fate. The boy was the ultimate warrior who he helped train.

It was at this point that both of these Olympians ignore Aphrodite, Aphrodite being Hephaestus's wife and Ares being the person who she usually cheats with...

Both were disgruntled and ignored the words of their fellow Olympians.

Apollo thought that erasing Artemis's memories of her adopted son was the right thing to do. But the God of Healing soon realized the severity of his mistake as he felt guilt and remorse for what he had done. He had realized that Artemis couldn't have a child to call her own and the fact that she despised men is because of what the Gods did to produce Demigods, she only wanted a person to call her own, she wanted a child with a person who would treat her right and be different than those who she calls disgusting pigs. That's why she resorted to Adoption...

Both Zeus and Athena thought that erasing Artemis's memories was the right thing to do disregarding morals. 

Hera as a Goddess of Families felt the backlash of separating a mother and a child despite her resentment of Demigods, but even so, she saw Artemis's son, Shirou as a sign of happiness for the Goddess of the Moon. So in the end she felt guilty about voting for their separation.

The same applied to almost all of the Olympians, Hestia was glaring at Zeus and Athena, Poseidon joined Hestia as he was against the separation, and Hermes joined the two, after realizing his mistake with Luke, he now wanted nobody to do the same mistake he had...

Demeter and Aphrodite were indifferent, though The Goddess Of Love voted for the separation because she wanted everyone to worship her more than feel love for the Man-hating Goddess.

Hades voted for but originally was against since Zeus threatened to kill Nico if he voted against the notion. What could he have done? The Ancient Laws prohibit heavy divine intervention...

All and all, the Gods were torn due to Guilt and Pride, but most of the Olympians were now guiltridden and now face the consequences of abandoning the boy, to the point where Hecate almost cut off ties with the Olympian Council due to her losing her favorite and prized pupil.

Many now despised the Olympians since word travels fast in the Godly and immortal community...

---Scene Change---

When Artemis found herself in the Camp Half-Blood infirmary, she was perplexed to no end as she remembered what she had seen in her various visions due to her injuries...

She began to ponder what she exactly saw, what made the boy in her visions special to her. she felt disgusted and yet proud, she felt estranged yet familiar with this boy who had beaten her, who appeared in her visions.

She continued to ponder until Thalia snapped her out of her stupor by walking in with a loud voice!

Thalia: "MILADY! What happened!? Whodidthistoyou?!"

The Hunter of Artemis inquired in a faster fashion than Hermes's winged shoes...

Percy soon entered the infirmary along with the rest of the Seven and the Cabin counselors...

Percy: "Calm down, Pinecone Face, she still needs room to breathe..."

Annabeth: "Thought this raises the question of who beat you in armed combat..."

Artemis: "A white-haired boy did..."

Jason: "Who could've beaten Lady Artemis in combat...?"

Leo: "I know right? She's the most combat-oriented God out of all the Olympians..."

Percy: "But that only goes to show that whoever beat her is a big threat, though why would the person spare you, and what are his motives...?"

Annabeth: "Good to know that years of teaching you common sense paid off..."

Percy: "Hey!"

Chiron: "I may be able to give you an answer to that question."

The Centaur said as he entered the infirmary.

Artemis: "Please do tell, who is the one that has beaten me in single combat?"

Chiron: "Maybe your Adopted Son, Lady Artemis..."

Everyone: "WHAT?! HOW?!"
