Percy got Leo to make me a magic collar so when I turn into my hellhound form they will know not to attack. It grows to fit my hellhound neck and shrinks to fit my human/frost giant neck.

I may or may not have a crush on an Olympian. I wont say who though.

Hermes pov (surprised?)

Zues called a meeting, right now my family is gathered in the Thrown room. Doing what you ask? Arguing. What else is new.

I stood up. I cleared my throat. "Father. If I may?" he nodded. Everyone silenced and were now looking at me. "Why did you call this meeting? Is it a threat? Or is it something else?"

Everyone was now looking at my father, Zues. I sat down and father stood up. "We are here because we have some guests coming. We are going to discuss the fate of a child in Camp Half-Blood." he sat down.

Artemis stood. "Who is this child? Who are the guest? Can you be a little more specific?" she sat down and crossed her arms. Father looked at her. "Wait and see impatient child." Apollo was laughing. Welp. Looks like we need to prepare a funeral. She growled at Apollo.

The room became darker. Colder. Uh oh. Most of us stood up. Father just sat there smirking. "Oh come on. Enough drama. Come out already." There were two laughs. A velvet, sweet laugh, and then a hearty, bellow laugh.

"Your still no fun." said the deep, smooth voice of a man. Obviously.

"Honestly. He said to step out. You to are just as dramatic as Lord Zues." said a third voice. Then a man stepped out. Asgardian.

Then two other figures stepped out behind the man with Black hair and green eyes. A woman, and another man. Nyx and Krios.

"Oh Loki. Learn to live a little. You've been absolutely boring since my baby girl left the palace. Do you like her?!" The man, Loki, growled at Lady Nyx. "No. Of course not. She is like an annoying little sister." she giggled.

I bowed to the three figures. "Lady Nyx, Lord Krios, Price Loki. A pleasure to have you here." The rest if my annoying family followed my lead and bowed. "Lord Hermes. We are in your home turf not ours. Please just call us by our names. No need for formalities." Krios smiled warmly at me. I smiled and nodded.

Loki turned to father. "Please forgive me for entering you home. I tried to tell them that the Greeks and Asgardians don't really enter each others territory." he bowed. My father chuckled causing Loki to look at him in shock.

"It is fine, Loki. No big deal." father stood and walked over to the three. Dad shook Krios' hand, hugged Nyx, and clapped Loki on the back. Wow. That's……shocking. HAHA!

I stood up. "Not to intrude, but can we get on with this meeting?" My father chuckled "ah. Yes. The meeting." three temporary thrones appeared and the three sat down. Nyx squealed and was clapping her hands.

What the heck. Aphrodite's face of confusion turned into one of realization. She stood up and squealed. "Apollo's sacred cows!! why didn't you say anything Nyxie. I would have started already!" Nyx smiled at her.

Artemis stood up. "I am confused. Why did you call this meeting father? Why are they squealing? And why do I have a bad feeling about this?"

"Me too. I am curious about this whole thing." my father stood and chuckled at me and Arty. "Nyx would you like to explain. She is your daughter." Nyx nodded excitedly. she stood up. "I have asked Lord Zues to call this meeting because of my little girl."

"She is becoming depressed and I thought it was time she was hooked up with someone. Instead of that little crush she had on Apollo's kid, Will. She is over it now, thanks Nico for showing up, and I wanted to know if any of you young gods would like to try and win her heart."

She looked around the room. "Her name is Astra. She isn't a Goddess yet, but the Fates came to me and Krios saying that she would become a Goddess as soon as she came to Olympus."

Krios stood up. "I believe most of you have seen her. She participated in most of Percy Jackson's quest. And the wars."

Nyx nodded. "How about one of my sons go to new york and retrieve her and bring her here. I believe she just left CHB." my father looked at all of us. "Who volunteers to go get her?" no one moved. Yay. I stood up. "I will."

Dad smiled. "You have 2 day. Go now son." with that I walked out and headed to the elevator to the Empire state building.

Astra pov (during the meeting)

I was in Percy and I's cabin. Him and Lord Posiedon let me stay in Cabin three. Anyways. Right now I am packing stuff for my trip. Clothes, shoes, Ambrosia, Lotus Cookies, Nectar, money, σκskotádi, and some knives.

I walked out of the cabin with my back pack on. I shifted into Shadow, my hellhound form. I ran to the border and walked out. I began walking to the city. When I reached the edge of the city I shifted back to normal.

'I'm hungry. Maybe I should eat something.' I was brought out of my thoughts when Blizzard, my owl griffon, landed beside me. "Hi." he shrunk to the size of a house cat and flew up and laid on my neck.

'You should eat, Princess. I can hear your stomach.' I giggle. "I will get you something To" I stopped and looked at the coffee shop beside me. Yum. STARBUCKS!

I walked in and looked at the menu. I got a carmel moka, and some donuts and a muffin. I paid and left.  I went to Central Park. I sat Blizzard's muffin on the bench. "Here you go." he nodded a thanks and began eating.

I sipped my coffee. "Hello." I turned around to see a guy. About 18 smiling at me. Hermes.

"Hello Lord Hermes. How may I be of assistance? donut?" I looked up at him and offered a donut. He excepted.

He sat down beside me and munched on the donut. "Thank you, miss. What was you name again? Astrid?" I giggled. "No my lord. Its Astra." he smiled. "Yes right. My apologies."

I smiled. "That's ok. is there a reason you have came seeking me?" he nodded. I looked at the now setting sun. I yawned. "C-can it...wait till*yawn* tomorrow?" I leaned on him. Resting my head on his shoulder. I closed my eyes and let Lord Hypnos take me to his land of sleep.

Hermes pov

I watched her sleeping face. It was so peaceful and innocent. I picked her up bridal style. "You coming Blizzard?" I looked down at her cat sized Griffon. It nodded and sat on her stomach. I flashed us to my palace on Olympus.

I walked to my bed and laid her down. I smiled and snapped my fingers. She was now in a pair of pj's from her bag. It was a baggy shirt with the Milky way on it she was also wearing some black sweat pants. She always wears a swimsuit under every outfit she wears.

I went to the living room and fell asleep on the couch.

Astra pov

I woke up in a strange place on a strange bed. I looked down and I was in my night clothes. Oh fuck.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" I scream at the top of the lungs that could probably be heard from space. The door opens and Hermes came running in. "WOAH WOAH! Ash! Calm down you're safe."

I stopped screaming and started taking deep uneasy breaths. He walked over to me and I threw myself on him and cried. "Hey hey. What's wrong? Your ok." he rubbed my back.

"I-i... The last thing I remembered was going to central Park and I fell asleep. I-i thought someone kidnapped me..." he froze.

"I am so sorry, Ash. Please forgive me for scaring you." I calmed down and nodded. He sighed. "C'mon now Ash. Father said he wants me to bring you to the throne room." I nodded and he flashed us right outside the big doors.

My griffen chuckled, now at full size. 'you do know you are still in your night clothes right?' I laugh. "Yeah yeah I know but I don't care."

I pushed the doors open, with some minor struggle and walked into the thrown room. All of the Gods were here. Plus Loki and my parents. Uh oh...
