A/N I read over this one shot and it looks like I stole it from another writer, I forgot the writer's name though. It was NOT intended.

"P-please..." Apollo whimpered. Zeus was beating him repeatedly, whipping and lashing him over and over. His punishment was supposed to be mortality. Apollo was a god again. His throne was restored. Everyone assumed no further punishment was given.

"Please..." Apollo whispered raspily. "Stop..."

"Maybe if you hadn't CAUSED THE GIANT WAR, I wouldn't be doing this," Zeus snarled. "You deserve what you're getting, boy."

It was only a matter of seconds before Apollo slipped into unconsciousness and darkness.

And then, all of a sudden, she could hear his voice. It was weak, distorted, and full of pain. But she could hear him calling for her help.

Artemis...
