- Age 15, a day before she joined the Hunt -
Sophia's POV
I run as fast as I can. I climb a tree and they lose me. I feel rage boil inside me. I want their blood on my hands. I want them dead. "Come out hon," One calls out. I jump out the three and pin him down. I use my knees to squeeze his ribcage. I strangle him. The others stare in shock. "You have one and a half seconds to run," I say while lucidly staring. They're fast. But I'm faster. At the speed of a Peregrine Falcon I catch them. (This gets a lil' gruesome) I grab a stick, sorry Gaea, and stab them in the heads. I smile at my work. I can see my dad's chariot in the distance. It's dark. He approaches me. "Excellent!" He says. I smile again. "Father, I would like to join the Hunt," I say. He looks at me surprised. "Go ahead," he says in a firm tone. I roam around and eventually stumble upon Artemis. It is now 12:09 am. My birthday. I'm officially 16. How wonderful. "I would like to join the Hunt," I say to her. "Can you run?" She asks. "Faster than a Peregrine Falcon," I reply. "Are you strong?" She asks again. "Strong enough to choke a man," I reply. "Parent?" She asks. "Ares and Aphrodite," I say. "Siblings?" She asks again. "Well, my dad turned Harmonia into a snake," I reply to her. "Can you shoot?" Artemis asks me. I nod. "Would you hurt a harmless animal like a bunny?" She asks. I shake my head no. "That's shocking for the daughter of war to say," She mutters. "Say the vow," Artemis commands. "I pledge myself to the Goddess Artemis. I turn my back on the company of men, accept eternal maidenhood, and join the Hunt." I say. "Very well then. Follow me," She says. "My name's Sophia," I tell her. She leads me to about 80 more females. They aim at me. "She's apart of the Hunt now. Don't hurt her. Meet the daughter of Ares, Sophia," Artemis says. I stare at them blankly.-Sophia's Appearance-
I usually wear a white AcDc t-shirt with gray sleeves, a black leather jacket, spiked cuffs on my wrists, black leather boots, black ripped skinny jeans, and white pearl earrings. When I train I wear a red CHB tank top, black Nike shorts, and pink running shoes. I also carry a sword. When I dress formally a wear a red knee length dress, a sleeveless black vest, black leather boots, a red bracelet, and a sword necklace. And when I sleep I wear a white tank top that has the words "Black Sabbath", yoga pants, black warm boots, and I have two red pillows. Tip of advice, don't mess with me.
