P.O.V Alexandr Cross-Son of Hades
Time- Where we left off

"Or he could join the hunt." Artemis said to the shocked council.
I frowned. Zeus looked at his daughter.
"Artemis, this is an option that he can chose, I'm not forcing you to do anything" Zeus said.
"I would.... Prefer if Alexandr joined with the hunt... He needs to be with demigods and others alike him, even if they are man haters."
Zeus seemed to think, when I decided to but in.
"I honestly don't have an opinion in this, I'm just a demigod amongst all powerful, mighty and just gods." I said, my voice laced with sarcasm. Zeus frowned, Apollo and Hermes snickered and my father smirked. Artemis looked like she was on the verge of laughing and blasting me apart whilst Hera was looking pissed.
"Chose your words wisely, demigod..." Zeus threatened, whilst I lent on a pillar, coat flapping around me with the wind that was responding to Zeus' anger.
"You've just proven a point to me." I replied
"What?"
"The Gods really do govern our lives..." I said
"Alexandr Cross, you have saved Olympus multiple times." Apollo said. "I believe you have the right to make this decision for yourself." He gave Zeus a glance.
"..." I thought, considering my options.
I turned to Artemis. "You would take me as member of the hunt?"
She nodded.
Zeus butted in. "You would not be a full member of the hunt, merely a semi immortal guardian."
Artemis nodded in agreement. "Indeed."
"Then I accept your offer, and swear on Chaos' name that I will do my best to live up to the title until I am relived of service by Lady Artemis."
The room darkened, a black pentagram appearing and a man emerging from it.
Chaos.
"Hello Alexandr Cross."
I bowed. "Hello again, Lord Chaos."
Zeus frowned. "You have met Chaos before?"
I turned to him. "Thrice, Zeus." I neglected his title.
"I have met Alex before, his mother was a descendent of mine." Chaos said to the assembled Olympians, who now looked a little uneasy. "Beware Zeus, anything that happens to him..." Chaos drew a line across his throat with his hand.
Zeus, needless to say, was uneasy and enraged for being upstaged in his own house.
"Alexandr, I hope you know what your doing, I have never let anyone swear on my name before. Be wise with your choices, are you sure you want to go ahead with this?"
"Yes uncle."
Chaos smiled and ruffled my hair, to my displeasure. "That's my boy, now, I'm going to give you a few things, use them wisely."
He clicked his fingers, a small box appearing in his hand, looking like it could hold a single shoe. He pressed it into my arms and gave me a hand shake, before vanishing, leaving me with the Olympians.
I turned back to Olympians.
"Well then, I guess I'll be waiting outside."
And with that I left.

I opened the box to reveal a simple revolver with a silver entwined handle. It fit in my hand perfectly, like it was designed for me. I mentally hit myself 'Of course it's made for you, stupid.' I opened the breach, inspecting the ammo type. 'Silver.... Chaos Silver probably, same lethal properties of celestial bronze (And imperial gold).' I grabbed a pad of paper from my pocket and scribbled out a note, before shoving one of Artemis' arrows that she left behind accidentally last time she was at camp, into the paper and into one of the doors to the throne room.
I wanted to try this weapon out.
