(short chapter)
I feel someone nudge me towards a tent. “Come child. We need to talk. And let's hope my brother doesn't come here.” Artemis says as I walk towards the tent.
I walk into it and see two cots. “Now what's your name and how old are you?” Artemis asks as she sits down on one of the cots. “My name is Anna Nikia and I'm 10.” I answer as I go to stand in front of her. “You're 10! My us! How are you this ugly!” Artemis says, looking me up and down.
Why is everyone saying that? I'm not ugly! I think to myself as I start playing with my hands. “You need a makeover! Kathy!” Artemis yells out and a young girl who looks about 13 or 14. “Yes m’lady?” Kathy says as she walks in and looks straight at Artemis, not even looking at me.
Artemis waves her over to her and whispers in her ear. Kathy looks over at me and looks me up and down. “I'll try my best but m’lady she's very ugly.” Kathy says as she comes over to me and picks me up. “Just try. If Apollo sees her. Oh my I don't think he would be happy that I took her in.” Artemis says as Kathy walks out with me in her arms.
Why is everyone saying I'm ugly? I think as I get out down and I look around. “Welcome to my humble boat!” Kathy says when she gets to the middle of the tent.
I only nod and I see her wave me over to a chest in the corner. “What does Apollo look like?” I ask while walking over to it and standing by it. “Well, he's a muscular guy who has long dirty blonde hair that he likes to put up in a half up half down bun with an accessory that looks like a Sun to hold the bun in place. Along with a skirt with different music notes embroidered at the bottom left of it and being covered in gold body paint that makes different intricate patterns along parts of his head all the way down to his arms. Though, all you really need to look for to spot him is the lyre he loves to carry around.” she answers as she opens the chest and all I see is hair accessories, clothes, shoes, and hair products.
Oh no. Not this! Why is it always this?! I think as I start to walk backwards away from the chest. “oh no! Nope!” I state as I turn around and try to run but didn't even get far because she grabbed me and made me sit down on her cot.
I hear her grab something and I see her pull out a white and silver dress. no! Why a dress! I think as she walks to me.
