Artemis's POV
I flashed to a nearby tree by the campsite and told Percy/Omega to wait while I introduce you and you jump in. He nodded. I walked into camp and saw Thalia.
"Thalia, can you get the rest of the girls, I have an announcement to make," I told her and she nodded and went to get the rest of the girls.
Soon all the girls were sitting in front of me in a semi-circle and I continued, "Girls, as you know we caught Omega and was interrogated in front of the council," Cue cheering, " We found out his identity and my father was smart enough to make him the Guardian of the Hunt!!!!!" It took a minute for the words to sink in and soon there were murmurs if what they heard was correct and soon it went a higher volume level of shouts of protests.
"Girls... GIRLS! I know even I didn't want it but.. Guardian, you can come out now," He stepped out and half of the girls recognized him in a split second and launched towards him, "Omega!!!!"
"Oof, girls get off me," 'Omega had tumbled over from the 30 girls that launched to him.
"Who are you?" Thalia asked storming up to Omega. Everyone facepalmed, "Well duh, he's Omega," Olivia said, "No, I mean under the cloak, Lady Artemis said that the whole council found out his identity. So, who are you?"
Omega looked at me for help, 'I told you at the council that you want to reveal yourself so you don't get a bigger punishment,' He groaned.
"Fine, but I'll only reveal myself on one condition" He flame-traveled onto the tallest tree, "You have to uncover me yourself. In other words, you have to catch me."
Thalia's POV
"... other words, you have to catch me." I was gaping, I can't teleport but, Nico and Percy can. Right before Percy left we were able to find out he could mist-travel which is basically making yourself split into air molecules. We also got him a few accidental trips to China (HEH), mostly because it was soooo hard to split into and combine back from water molecules. After Percy left, Nico and I created an empathy link. 'Nico, how do you teleport through shadows' 'I just think of where I want to go in the shadows,' Nico replied through the empathy link, 'Do you think the same thing will work if is summon lightning at the place I want to go to?' 'I guess.' I am really excited, I looked back for Omega and saw.... HIM FLOATING IN THE AIR!!!!
"What the Hades???????????" I exclaimed.
Percy's POV
"What the Hades???????????" Thalia exclaimed. I smirked, she didn't know that I was Percy and on top of that, she doesn't know that I'm basically blessed by every Olympian except for Artemis of course. This also means that my powers are extended and I can fly because even Zeus blessed me. She started to get pale, obviously, she wants to
I started to taunt, "Daughter of Zeus, can't you fly....."
Suddenly there was a bang and Thalia disappeared. I started to look everywhere for her, and suddenly I felt my hood being pulled back.
"You got me," I put my hands in a surrender pose, "But where in Hades did you find out how to teleport." I looked around, every single girl looked either frightened or confused, and even Artemis looked confused. "Just right now," she said. I sighed. Suddenly my hood fell off all the way. I still had the surrender gesture and really quickly lied, "I don't have the Achilles' Curse still." The good thing about the second swim in the Styx is that you can choose whether you want to be invulnerable. I chose to be vulnerable for Thalia's sake.
When confusion to realization if on her face she does this, "PERSEUS ACHILLES JACKSON, WHERE IN HADES WERE YOU, DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED NICO AND I WERE??? FIRST OFF, WE FIND OUT YOU'RE OMEGA, THEN YOU BECOME THE GUARDIAN OF THE HUNT WITHOUT ME KNOWING," she punched me hard, and I mean hard. I crashed into 10 trees without stopping in the air and got electrocuted more. Now I will myself to be invulnerable, knowing she would stop. She came up to me and started hugging me really hard, although I didn't feel a thing, and she started crying. Suddenly her eyes lit up and her whole face scrunched up in concentration. When she was done. Shadows started to form and my eyes widened, "How??" I asked Thalia. By now she was grinning wickedly. Soon Nico appeared with a little confusion but when his eyes set on me he also started to grin wickedly. Oh crap. I willed myself to be vulnerable.
Nico's POV
I was just doing my daily work in the Underworld after Thalia asked me how to teleport. I told her how. My daily work includes of going after the escaping souls, making sure that Minos isn't putting the wrong people in the wrong places (Fields of Punishment, Elysium, Isles of the Blest) (Did I spell that right?) Although Thanatos is supposed to take care of the escaping souls, I told him that it was alright if I did it, because, after all, I didn't have much to do while he had a lot of things to do.
Suddenly, 'Hey Nico, can you come to my location, it is urgent.' From Thalia. I was confused but nevertheless I shadow travelled to Thalia's location. Immediately all arrows were pointed at me. Still confused I looked around and saw Thalia hugging PERCY. I immediately gained a wicked smile and stomped up to him.
"PERSEUS JACKSON, DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED I WAS WHEN I COULDN'T FIND YOU IN THE UNDERWORLD THINKING YOU WOULD DIE SOON. I ALSO CHECKED EVERY WHERE I COULD ON EARTH," I calmed down and hugged him hard, with a depressed look on my face.
Suddenly I asked Thalia, "Does it work?"....
