Hi guys! I felt kinda guilty for not updating for a long time so I wrote a long chapter!

Percy POV:

I woke to find Artemis sprawled out on the top of my body. She was happily lying on top of me, her head resting on my chest, the inside of her thigh nudging my erection. I blushed. "Hey Moonbeam. Wakey-wakey." Artemis wriggled a bit, the only sign she was awake. Then she felt my erection poking her and her eyes snapped open. She started blushing profusely. I chuckled and sweeped her off her feet. She squealed finding herself in my arms, bridal style. I set her down barely able to hold in my laughter. She stretched her limbs. I dreamily gazed at her body. She noticed and snorted. "Boys just can't take their eyes off a woman's body", she said, snickering at the end. "You are absolutely right. Though the only body I want to see is yours.", I shot back. She started blushing again at the end. "I gotta go to the Hunt", she said and prepared to flash out. "Just a second Arty. I... how do you feel about this mate thing. You do know that I like Thalia don't you?" She sighed. "Yes, Percy. I know. You can do anything you want." "You do know that you will always be my first love right?", I said. She giggled before giving me a kiss and flashing out. I proceeded to walk towards where I had last left Thalia.

On my way, a thought came over me. I frowned. It was possible with my powers but I could only do it at night. I walked over to find Thalia sleeping. She hadn't moved and tear stains streaked her face. I picked her up and sent a small bolt into her. She flew from my arms. Literally. She looked around to find herself flying using the wind. She proceeded to scream and fall down. I stepped forward and caught her. She glared at me and rolled off me. "What is it?", she asked. I picked her up and kissed her. Her eyes widened in surprise but she slowly melted into the kiss. I pulled away and rested my head on top of hers. "I'm sorry for pushing you away yesterday. It's just that I was confused and I didn't know what to do." She frowned. "I know, I shouldn't have sprung up on you like that." I laughed. "Wanna go get a cheeseburger?" She nodded. I wrapped my arms around her and flashed out. The rest of the day went by in a rush. After our cheeseburger, Thalia returned to the hunt. I flashed her in before flashing myself to where Artemis was. I erupted out of the ground wreathed in flames. Artemis, who happened to be right next to me, screamed. "Whoa, calm down Arty." She punched me in the jewels and went back to her archery practice as if nothing happened.

"You do know (gasp) that I need this stuff (wheeze) if I'm gonna have (sucking in air noisily) kids someday right? (wheeze)" She snorted. "You've got Chaos' powers. I doubt that you can't regrow your balls." I fell down pulling Artemis down with me. She squealed at being caught off balance so suddenly. "Come on Arty. Take a break." She pinched me. "OW!" "I'll take a break when I feel like it. And I don't wanna take a break now." I pouted. She got up and started shooting again. I tugged at her sleeve every time she shot a arrow making her miss her shots. She turned and nudged my side. "Let go." "No." "Come on, let go." "Nuh uh. You're missing your shots because you're tired. So let's go and have a snack." She sighed. "Alright." I smiled and pulled her along to the kitchen. "I'll make something for you. No summoning", I said. I snapped my fingers and Thalia appeared. It appeared that she was at the arena, fighting. And that meant that as soon as I flashed her here, she was lunging forward and when she lunged, I was in front of her, which meant that her spear went straight through me, painting the wall behind me in silver blood. I was about to pull the spear out and heal myself, when I got an idea. I fell down, gasping. Gods, this was a lot of falling down in one day. Artemis vaulted off the table and ran towards me.

Thalia screamed and fainted. Artemis started sobbing. "Hey Arty. I love you. I can't stand to see you cry so I'm just gonna get off you and heal myself. Artemis slapped me. "How dare you make me think that you were dying." "Oh, come on Arty, it's just a spear through my side. I've been through worse." She pushed me. "If you can do it, heal yourself and meet me at the centre of camp. I have a announcement to make." I pulled the spear out and stood up. "I'm ready", I said grinning. Artemis stared at me. "Even Father can't heal that fast. How did you,,, oh, wait. You're Percy Jackson, Nothing's impossible." She got up and walked off. I snorted. I would never understand women. I walked over to Thalia and kneeled down. I made a bucket of ice cold water appear by me. I grinned, This was gonna hurt later but it was totally worth it. I dumped the whole bucket over Thalia. She squealed and jumped up. "Perseus Jackson!" I tried to stay quiet but my laughs gave me away. I scowled at me and walked off. My grin faded. Huh? Her usual reaction was electrocuting me into next year. I walked out only for pain to erupt in my lower region. So that's why Thals walked off.

Thalia walked into my field of vision. "Serves you right", she said, grinning. After I was done wheezing and groaning and spouting out some very colourful language, I got up and hobbled over to the centre of camp. The first thing I saw was all the Hunters gathered around Artemis. I groaned. Great. I forgot about the Hunters. I was about to hobble back to the kitchen when Thalia spotted me. "Hello Percy!", she yelled, smiling that wicked smile that has gotten associated with running and pain in my brain. Hey, that rhymes! Anyway, back to the story. The Hunters' heads whipped around so fast, I swear that I heard almost all their necks cracking. The Hunters yells ranged from "PERCY! YOU'RE BACK" to "I'LL IMPALE YOU TO THAT TREE! HOW DARE YOU LEAVE LIKE THAT." I did the only thing a person of my gender does while they are chased by the Hunt. I turned and ran. I was chased through the woods until the demigods in the Hunt started using their powers. The trees all bent over in front of me forming a barricade. I was attacked by Hunters.

After a few minutes they stopped. They came forward and started apologizing, one by one, even the younger ones that didn't actually do anything. After they were done, I smiled and said, "I forgive all of ya'll. I know it wasn't easy having me in the Hunt, since it goes against everything you stand for, but if I die, everyone has to promise me right now, that if you get another male guardian, you have to give him a chance before trying to kill him." They all smiled and promised. Artemis found us halfway back. "What was the announcement Arty?", I asked. She winced, "We have to go to Camp Half-Blood." I grinned. "Okay." "You're not angry?", she asked. "I got an excuse to beat up that excuse for a demigod which happens to be my half- brother," She smiled.

Time Skip (2 hours)

I looked up at the stars seeking the constellation of the Huntress. I smiled before concentrating all my power into the constellation. I gasped at the loss of power before getting up and walking to my tent. She was lying in my bed, asleep. I smiled and was about to go to Artemis' tent before she started glowing a soft pink. I gulped. Arty wasn't gonna like this and she most definitely wasn't.
