"Well Zoë do you want some new clothes?"
"Yes please."
I put her down and think of an outfit and after a second she's wrapped up in a guardian uniform.
Soon Apollo came and started healing all of the girls. "Zoë why don't you go play with the other little girls?" She ran off and Apollo and Artemis cam over to me.
"This isn't good." Artemis said after reaching me.
"I know, which guardians died?"
"Ares and Dionysus." Apollo answered.
"What was the meeting about?" I asked.
"Bringing the guardians back to Olympus. The gods are scared because four of you had died and the campers aren't holding up any better. The feud between the Greeks and romans isn't helping either." Artemis answered this time.
" what if we called in the Amazon's? Could that help?"
"Maybe, or make it worse."
I turned to look at the girls in the clearing and a thought came to me."what if we trained this group of girls secretly away from everyone else and bring them in when the war starts, we can keep recruiting them and I'd train them, you could say I died while I hide and train them."
"No"
"That's a good plan"
Artemis and Apollo said at the same time.
"He has a point, the monsters know that he's the leader, the strongest person, saying he died would give them false confidence and he could train these girls so we have a better chance." Apollo said turning to Artemis.
"Fine."
"You can't visit or talk to me at any point while this is happening we can't take the chance of someone finding out." I told Artemis. I turned to Apollo as I said"can you take the girls to Alaska?"
"Percy? What about the prophecy?"
Artemis asked as Apollo walked away.
" I shall train the girls then I will deal with the prophecy. "We just stood there until Apollo disappeared with the girls.
" I'm going to miss you."she whispered quietly.
"I still have your necklace" I say as I bring her into a hug. She squeezes my waist tightly and I feel hot tears soaking into my shirt.
I pulled away and wipes her tears before kissing her softly and disappearing.

I stood in the clearing for a few minutes before flashing back to Olympus. The other gods seen me and looked at me concerned. "What's wrong sister?" Athena asked me.
"Percy..." I started crying.
The council erupted into chaos.
"We're all dead, we won't win!"
"Call up our guardians!"
"SILENCE!"
Father yelled over everyone else.
"What happened?" Father turned to me.
"Percy found a house the monsters were hidding in and went to kill them as he was going for the last kill the monster managed to give him a fatal wound. By time Apollo got there he was dead."
"Where is Apollo?" As soon as Hera asked this Apollo came back looking tired and worn out.
"Here" he replied.
"That's 5 guardians dead, and what about the prophecy?" Athena asked.
"It could happen later it doesn't mean it's going to happen now." I replied.
We continue with the meeting but I just space out thinking of Percy and how he plans on surviving. I also got worried that being surrounded by all those girls would make him forget about me.
'Apollo, where did you take them?'
'I dropped them off at the border because Percy thought that it would be better if no one knew where he'd be.' He replied with a knowing look.
'Find.' I huffed before turning back to the conversation taking place.
"... There. Ares says.
" that's a good idea, but what if something else happens?" Athena answers.
"We will keep them at the camp and have a different group go." Before anyone could talk father flashed out.
