Oh Iris, Goddess of Rainbows, please show me Perseus Jackson, Camp Half Blood."

Despite it not being like her Artemis was nervous. If what Perseus spoke of was true what she was doing right now was dangerous, very dangerous if Atlas was meant to be attacking her at any moment.

"Lady Artemis." The voice of Perseus Jackson broke her line of thought.

"Perseus Jackson." Artemis acknowledged him, analysing the 'young' demigod. Artemis took a breath before she continued.

"I have been thinking of what we were discussing and I must say, your situation, this predicament that you have found yourself in... is rather interesting to say the least."

Perseus Jackson was a bit of a puzzle. He claimed to have been sent back from the future in the body of his past self. Spoke tales of great heroics that were to come within the coming years. And she had to take this information with a grain of salt.

But the young demigod knew a lot of things that he should not but yet he did. He knew of Zoe's past, her lineage to Atlas, her life as a Hesperide. He even wielded her old sword and knew of it's past. How Heracles broke Zoe's heart and left her to die. It was highly likely that what he spoke was the truth and thus very useful in what may be a coming war.

He explained everything to her. That as she hunted the Ophiotaurus she would be captured by Atlas, who escaped his punishment, and she would be forced to hold the sky. She needed to confirm the boy's words one last time for surety.

"I have to be captured by Atlas' forces, otherwise our whole plan may not work." She spoke with a tone of finality.

She knew that he would not approve of her actions, but she was a goddess and a demigod was not one to control her life.

"Are you sure, Lady Artemis?" Perseus replied with an/span/span undoubtedly a twinge of concern in his eyes.

"Yes Perseus I am sure of this. It's the only way we can allow our plan to work, but I won't go down without a fight." Artemis replied with confidence.

She figured that he would understand what she meant by mentioning the plan. She needed to keep the timeline as similar as possible to make sure everything goes without a hitch.

Percy seemed to be finally relenting, "If you are sure, My Lady, then I can only wish you the best of luck. Stay safe Lady Artemis."

Artemis snorted with amusement."Of course, boy. Who do you think I am?" The goddess' eyes held humor, which went unnoticed by the half blood.

"I'm sorry My Lady..." He apologized nervously.

"Artemis rolled her eyes at the demigod's obliviousness. In the middle of her eye-roll her eyes met with the volcanic black orbs of her

Her eyes widened slightly at that. What was Zoe Nightshade doing out on the beach in the middle of the night? More over, what was she doing at the exact location of the demigod she was in a conversation with.

"I will talk with you later, Perseus." She dropped her voice down to a whisper, "Keep Zoe safe... And don't inform her of our conversation."

Artemis knew full well that Zoe could take care of herself. In face she was probably the most powerful half blooded being, being half titan. She spoke the words because she knew of Zoe's supposed fate. She couldn't help but worry for her sister in all but blood.

Artemis swiped her hand through the mist, ending the connection. Artemis continued her hunt of the ophiotaurus deep into the night.

It was probably one in the morning when a bright flash alerted her of another being.
