Eternal Guardian

Reunions

Percy POV:

I woke up to see the Hunters packing up. Where were we going? Then last night's events came flooding back. I groaned and lay back onto the tree. I jumped down and walked over to my tent. No one had disturbed it. Perfect. I peeked inside. She was still asleep. Probably tired from being brought back from the dead. I flashed to Artemis' tent. I walked in to see her dressing. I yelped and jumped right back out. Artemis sprinted out of her tent wearing nothing but a shirt. "WHO DARES ENTER MY TENT!" "That would be me", I said timidly. She sighed and went back in. "Why did you come in the first place?"

I walked in, "Well, I have someone here to see you. She's in my tent." Artemis nodded and went back to dressing.

Time Skip (2 minutes)

Artemis walked over to my tent to find me sleeping on a branch of a tree outside. She smirked and whispered something to the dryad that had appeared out of the tree. A second later, Percy landed at Artemis' feet. "What the...!!?!", I yelled. Artemis' innocently smiled at me. I grumbled, "I don't get enough sleep nowadays." Artemis smirked. Again. I stood up and walked over to my tent. "After you milady", I said, like the gentleman I was. Oh, how I hoped that I had put a bucket of the Stolls' signature slime over the door.

She walked in. Thalia walked over, seeing me standing outside my tent. "Why are you..." I cut her off. "Wait for it...", I whispered, counting down from five. "ZOE!!" That brought all the Hunters running over to my tent. Artemis dragged a bewildered and confused Zoe out of the tent. Oops! Should have explained everything to Zoe. The older hunters swamped her, crying. The younger hunters just stood awkwardly where they were.

After Zoe finished hugging and crying with the hunters, she turned to me. "What am I doing here Perseus?", she asked. "Yeah, how is Zoe back from the dead, PERSEUS!", Artemis asked frowning. I winced. This was gonna take some time.
