3rd Pov:
Artemis was happy to be with Percy but Percy was not. He was constantly worrying how their fights could hurt her. But she will not listen to him, he knew. So he decided to make her an Armor like him. He also decided to teach her sword fighting. They were down at Tartarus for 50 yrs or 1 year at surface. He successfully spied at their army. He was convinced that they were delaying their attack because 'Perseus" wasn't found. He informed council about this. They communicated through the shrine of Hermes. Percy's strategies were at service they also made sure there wasn't any spies. Percy was happy to hear that they were constantly practising.

He also got an information that army of monsters are going to get out of pit under the leadership of Nyx and Erebus. Tartarus wasn't going to attack them directly, but if others fail he will be coming. Percy decided it was time to destroy the enemies.

He and Artemis was always together. Their relationship became more close that they were a single soul but two bodies. Percy convinced Artemis to let him teach her Sword fighting. She was just like Percy with a bow. He didn't show her all his weapons. She constantly asked about it. But he didn't want her to see all his weapons at that time. Percy also started to forge her Armor and many other weapons just for her.

Artemis Pov:

I was at my tent going through Percy's strategies. I saw a diary near his strategy books. I took them and read its name as "The ore of Happiness". I opened to see a beautiful qoute " the true value of life is only revealed when there is always someone to love. They make our life worthy to be lived"
Wow he really got some skills in poetry. I flipped the page to see a woman kneeled in front of a little boy. The drawing was a perfect depiction of a mother's love. I saw Percy's signature and name of the drawing.
I recognised it as Sally, His mom. It was like she was sculptured just like Thalia had explained how she looked. I flipped to next page. I saw an older version of Percy. I looked it more closely to understand it as Uncle Poseidon. It was true that Percy was just like the sea god himself. Anyone could mistake Percy for uncle Poseidon. I flipped to see a picture of a Lady. She had Auburn hair, with silver eyes. She was holding a bow. I knew it was me. I saw his signature as
'My first true love'. I looked more closely to.the picture to see it was just like me. I was about flip it to next page, when I heard My love calling me. He was in forge tent he made. I closed the book and decided to look it after wards. I walked to them to see Percy standing back to me. I hugged him from back. He turned and kissed me.
"So silver girl, today your wish will be granted but with a cost." He said in a lord voice.
I shrugged and kissed him hard. He deepened the kiss. Our tongues tied each other while our lips were sucking each other. Our kisses was always passionate but with love. I pulled back. He leaned to me and placed his head on mine. We looked to each others eyes. His beutiful sea green eyes were filled with love and happiness.
"If that price is enough for you" I said.
"Well it is not enough, but it will be sufficient for you to fulfil your wish but not your surprise." He chuckled.
"Please Percy." I pleaded to him giving him my best puppy eyes. He concentrated to never fall but let go at last.
"Ugh.. stop it Arty. You know I can't refuse to that" he said angrily.
Ha I knew it. He would fall for it. So he gestured me to stand there. He walked to the opposite side of table.
"So Arty I will finally show you my weapons." He said.
I smiled at him.
"So first we have Riptide, but now known as Maelstrom.
It was a celestial bronze sword. But after the war Hephaestus upgraded it to a more powerful one. It was upgraded with Olympian Platinum, Imperial Gold and silver, with Atlantian Platinum and Obsidian Silver. It also have the essence of sea with mine. So only I could weild it. He also said that this sword could change to new appearance according to my wish. So after the incident at camp I renamed it to Maelstrom. Then it also changed its appearance." He said taking out his pen. He uncapped it and a beautiful 3foot long sword grew out. He placed it at the table.
