A gold and silver blur darted trough the trees, coming to stop in front of a camp full of silver-clad girls. Percy and Cerynitis, or Cery as he called her, entered the clearing walking up to an auburn haired woman that was packing bags.

"Mom? You're leaving? Were are you going? Can we go with?" The now fourteen year old asked hesitantly seeing the worry in his mothers eyes.

"A monster is on the loose and i need to hunt it. Alone. Remember that i told you of our enemies?" Seeing Percy's nod she continued "They are gathering their allies, we don't know what monster it is, all we know is that it can cause our downfall."

"You and the girls won't be able to come with, you are temporary staying at Camp Half-Blood-" before Artemis could finish her sentence her now fourteen year old son interupted her.

"What! But Phoebe told me the boys there flirt with them and that the girls are sluts, why would we go the-" he ranted before getting flicked on the nose.

"Ow..." Percy rubbed his nose. "Don't rant young man, you and the girls are going there wheter you like it or not. Your uncle will bring you and some half-bloods from the camp there. Besides, your aunt Hestia will be there too."

The young boys face lit up like a Christmas light, he hadn't seen his aunt in ages! And last time she had given him fire powers for his birthday. Well, they were catch-on-fire-when-startled powers right now but you get the point!

" 'S fine i guess." Percy muttered and went to the the demigods they had rescued from a manticore earlier today, a know-it-all daughter of Athena named Annabeth, a hot-headed daughter of suprisingly(or not) Zeus named Thalia, and a bratty son of Poseidon named Hugo(i can't even... i was half thinking about naming him Bratt but it sounded to cliché)

Long story short, he didn't like them.

He did like the children of Hades though, Bianca, their new huntress, and Nico, her little brother who was just to innocent to be hated by him. Plus he was a cute kid.

And he also liked the satyr Grover because he cared for nature, though he did see the goat-hybrid almost drooling over his sister and mother.

He was so going to have a talk with him later.

He sat down in front of Grover and Nico, who was feverently trying to explain some card game he recognized.

"Is that Mythomagic?" He asked grinning.

"Yeah! You know about it? What's your favorite card? Do you collect the figurines? I kinda like the wine dude, you know, that Dio-Dion-Dionisus-Dionysus guy. Most people think he's lame but i think his powers are totally sweet." The little boy said in one breath, almost bouncing in his seat.

Percy ruffled his hair.

"Hey!" Nico said indignantly. The son of Artemis chuckled, "Well kid, i kinda like the Hestia card, she has 5000 attack power and healing powers but can't attack unless someone from her card group was hurt first."

Then he heard the shout from his mother, "Everybody close your eyes, he's parking."

Everyone did and when they opened his eyes there stood a glowing Maserati Spyder, a.k.a. the sun chariot.

Apollo stepped out carefree as ever, but with an underlying tone of worry.

Percy hugged his mother, "Mom, promise me you'll be alright." Artemis hugged him back, "Don't worry Percy, everything will be alright. Now go with your uncle, and take Amicus and Prealia with you."

The child of Artemis gathered his wolves and sat next to Nico, who thought they were really cool, with his wolf friends at his feet.(the picture is what Amicus and Prealia kind of look like)

He saw the daughter of Zeus was driving and immidiatly fastened his and Nico's seatbelts while he beckoned his canine's to sit in the free seat next to him. Making sure their seatbelt was tight enough he leaned back.

"Nico, if something happens, don't worry. Thats just my uncle messing around." He warned as he cautiously watched the sun god from the corner of his eye.

Percy wasn't suprised when the sun chariot went really fast, he wasn't suprised when they torched New-England, and he especially wasn't suprised when they crash landed into the lake.

The son of Artemis waited until Apollo had parked his car and then unfastened his and his companions seatbelts.

"C'mon Nico, we don't want you to get cooties from all the girls do we." Percy said, seeing the son of Hades' eyes full of fear.

The fear was immidiatly replaced with disgust, "Eew, no!" He yelled and sprinted out the door, the hunter and huntress' of Artemis chuckled at his innocense.

The prince of animals and his companions exited the Greyhound/sun and Percy took his place next to Bianca and Nico, seeing some campers and Annabeth, Thalia and Hugo yelling at them.

He growled under his breath, "First of all, leave them alone, they just got here. Second of all, if you hurt them i will let my wolves eat you. Is that clear?" He asked, seeing them nod feverently he growled, "Good."

Percy walked back to the sun chariot to say goodbye to his uncle, "bye uncle." He said sadly.

Apollo ruffled his hair, "Bye Percy, stay safe, and keep an eye out for your mother will ya?" He asked.

Percy nodded, "I will." He promised.

And closed his eyes as the sun god and his chariot dissapeard.

The animal prince turned around and nervously petted the fur on Amicus' head as he turned around to the campers, who looked dumbstruck at the glowing silver bow and arrow over his head and the flame and lyre over his shoulders.

Hearing the conch shell he laughed- almost giggled at their faces.

"Lets go eat lunch hmm?"

I hope that was good, ive been having some major writers block lately because i don't know how to write the scene.

So first Percy gets the wolves because those votes have been overflowing. Also next chapter certain campers will reappear.

Votes are closed and the result will be in chapter 5's authors note.
