            ~Prologue~

Lady Artemis smiled at the baby in her lap; she ran her fingers threw the baby's now dark curls but at night the baby's hair would change to blonde. She promised Nyx, she would raise her daughter, to become a great warrior.  Lady Artemis sighed remembering her twins prophesy.

Apollo's eyes went glassy and his voice sounded flat, which is not like him.

"Daughter of Night, will fall for Son of Light, or Olympus will Fall."

 "That can mean anything brother." Lady Artemis scoffed talking to no one. No one knew when the true son of Apollo would be born it could be eons.

Artemis kept her word to Nyx, Nyla became a great warrior, maybe even the best. She even became the Amazon Princess, but she was having problems, boy problems. Sons of Apollo would come into her life and fade away just as fast as they came, it's been centuries. Nyla was blessed with immortality, but it still hurt Nyla every time, Nyla always tried to hide it. Lady Artemis saw through it.

"Lady Artemis!" Nyla ran up to the auburn haired goddess and bowed politely.

"Yes, Nyla dear?" Lady Artemis smiled.

Nyla golden eyes darted to the sky like Zeus was going to zap her for what she was about to say. "Is there a chance, that Lord Apollo miss said the prophecy?" Nyla thought she was seeing things but she swore she saw the sun get dimmer.

Lady Artemis laughed. "Oh I wish! That would be so fun to tease my dear brother about, but I'm afraid the prophecy is true." Lady Artemis placed a hand on Nyla's shoulder.

"Darn it!" Nyla fought the urge to stomp her foot like a two year old.

"I feel the time is coming when you meet the true son of Apollo. Now go practice your battle strategy!" Lady Artemis smiled as Nyla ran into the woods with her best friend, Claire.

Artemis felt a warm hand touch her shoulder, startled she elbowed the person in the stomach. "Ow! Zeus almighty! Could you hit me harder!" Lord Apollo clutched his stomach.

Lady Artemis smiled at her brother. "I could if you wanted too."

"No, no. I had enough beatings for one day." Lord Apollo rubbed his stomach. "If you aimed a little lower. Then I wouldn't be able to have any more kids!"

"Stop being a drama queen and that wouldn't be a bad thing. Because your sons have been hurting Nyla for eons, brother." Lady Artemis said calmly.

"Yeah about that." Lord Apollo ran a hand threw his golden blonde hair. "You're an Aunt! Again! Guess boy or girl?!" Lord Apollo smiled.

Lady Artemis rolled her eyes. "Oh let me guess! A boy." Artemis already knew the answer.

"Yep!"

"Are you ever going to have a girl?" Lady Artemis mumbled to herself.

"Anyway! I know he's the one!" Lord Apollo grinned, his sky blue eyes lit up. "Isn't it great!"

"Well yeah if he is the one. How do you know he is the one in the prophecy?" Lady Artemis asked.

"Don't know, but he is the one! When he is old enough, I will send him to Lighting Shadows Academy, Chiron will send him here when he is ready!" Lord Apollo smiled. "Got to go! Love ya sis!" Apollo kissed his sister on the cheek before disappearing with a flash of light.

"I hope your right, brother. I hope you right." Lady Artemis sighted and turned to see Nyla and the Amazons come out of the woods.
