3rd POV
   

         When Percy woke up the next morning he saw that all the Hunters were just starting to get up. One hunter was at the fire. Percy got up and walked to the Hunter by the fire hoping to start a conversation. When he got near her he saw she had wavy amber hair that was tied back by a hair tie. When he sat next to her he saw that she had the body of a 12-year-old.
         "Hi, I'm Percy. I wanted to ask you why you're by yourself out here. Shouldn't you be with the other Hunters? Not that you can't handle yourself of course." He rushed thinking that being the stupid person he is that he had somehow insulted her. But that's when she turned to face him.
           " Really Percy. That was not a way to say that I did not mean to insult you I mean I know that you have a problem with being oblivious and stuff but that was just bad." She told me laughing.
          Then Percy saw the rest of Hunter's face. She had pale skin and bright silver eyes. Her ponytail swung over her shoulder. Her face had an amused smirk which made her eye seem to get brighter if that was even possible. Which by the way should not have been. Percy bolted upright. Completely unprepared that the Huntress her was talking to was Lady Artemis. He fell to the ground bowing.
           Percy then heard a giggle." Why are you bowing? My Hunters don't bow to me. So why would you have to bow." Lady Artemis asked to him.
   
        Percy's POV

      "I'll tell you the same thing I told Hestia when she told me not to bow to her when she became my mom," I told her.
       " I normally don't bow but when I do it shows I have a high respect for them. You, Mom, Dad, and Hades have my respect. And for me, I usually do a snarly remark but I have respect. So I am going to bow to you because you hold my respect." I continue.
         " Why do I hold your respect Percy?" She questioned me.
          " You probably think it's because you had Zoe as your Hunter. Well no. Actually, I respect you because you put men in their place. I know how it feels to have a step dad that abusive. I used to have one, until...... Never mind. It's just that you hurt the men that hurt women. So that's good I think.I mean I was abused ALOT. Sometimes, almost to the point of death. It's not that bad and I don't remember much of it." I quickly add, but she had already heard what I had said.
         " Hunters!" Artemis yelled. Limitedly the hunters were in line. In front of Artemis." Hunters, I have some interesting news after converting with Percy I got out of him that he was abused."She said.
          The Hunt immediately went into an uproar. Thalia came up to me and asked if he was still alive. I just moved my head."Artemis do you remember that time when Olympus got a package with medusa's head in it?" I looked at Artemis. She just nodded her head.
          " Well when I was on my first quest we had to face Medusa and I almost got killed, but we ended up killing her by crashing a car into her. When we took off her head I thought might as well and shipped it off to Olympus. Olympus sent it back and my real mom took it and put it in the fridge so when he opened it, he turned into to stone. We had to turn him back. I think he ran away somewhere."
             "We have to find him and make him pay for what he did to our brother." One of the Hunters shouted.
            Artemis nodded in agreement. "But first I am sorry to say but we need to go and resume a hunt that we have not finished."
           "What hunt is this?" I questioned Lady Artemis.
            "To recruit around 4 Hunters from Camp half-blood." Lady Artemis frowned as she finished her sentence.
            " What?"I asked shocked.
            " I'm am truly sorry for it but there is nothing we can do about it," She told me sadly.
           I try to comprehend what she said but it was to much. I felt like I was going to pass out." Can't I just stay here? I mean it's all good and amazing here. I'll guard the camp while you're gone,"I tried to reason with them.
            Artemis shook her head. "No you cannot but you can if you want to stay in that wolf form of yours"
           I looked at her thankfully." that's fine...... I guess."I told her looking down.
             Artemis yelled to the Hunt to pack up. Seeing as I did not know how I changed into my wolf form and stood next to Artemis. When the hunters finished packing up, we set out on our long run to camp half-blood.
