The son of the gods.

Chapter 4

Percy's POV
I walk through Olympus' gardens. They are beautiful but I'm bot really paying attention. After walking a bit I arrive at the throne room and enter. Only Zeus and Poseidon was here. I asked them to call a counsel meeting and they did just that. A few flashes later all of the Olympian counsel sat on their thrones in their giant form.

"I have finished my interview at camp"

I told them while giving Zeus the recommendation letter that Chiron had given me. He read the whole thing four times to make sure that he was seeing correctly and even gave it to Athena to also read. Her eyes widened in shock. Her mouth was moving but nothing came out, not unlike Annabeth.

Artemis POV

I was starting to get impatient. Father and Athena had now both read the letter and still has not told us what it says. I was busy contemplating on just grabbing the letter when father finally spoke.

"Never had any hero received such marks from Chiron. Not Hercules, Theseus or even your namesake Perseus. Leave us to decide what job to give you."

"As you wish father."came his reply he then stepped into his own shadow and dissapeared.

"Artemis I know you are nit going to like this but I want to make him gaurdian of the hunt so that he can keep mt daughter safe."

To say I was fuming was an understatement.

"I agree"

I look around to see who answered and my gaze rested on my idiotic brother. I was about to protest when Zeus spoke again.

" I know you don't like the idea of having a male in your hunt but your numbers have dwindled down and you are at a disadvantage when a huge number of enemies attack."

"Fine, but he has to swear to not flirt with my hunters."

" Ok so how do we summon him he just left?" asked Zeus.

"No need I'm right here"

Just then he steps out of the shadow of a pillar.

Percy's POV

I laugh inwardly. Hiw could they not sense me? I was standing in the room with the most powerful gods and they couldn't detect one little demigod hiding in the shadows.

I listened to their debate on what job to give me but I was shocked to learn that I'll be protecting the hunt more like I'll need protection from them.

After hearing they needed me back. I told them I'm right here and stepped out of the shadow of the pillar I was standing in.

Their faces shows disbelief that they did not sense me. I shrugged it of and walked over to Lady Artemis. I went on one knee and held my right arm over my chest.

"I Perseus Jackson hereby swear on the rivers of the underworld, Styx and the rest of them. To not flirt with the hunters of Lady Artemis and not force myself or harm them in any way. I vow to protect Lady Artemis and the hunters with my life and wil gladly put down my own well being for theirs. This I vow to you Milady."

After finishing my oath I took a step back and bowed to Artemis. If they could be even more shocked than before they are now and Artemis was the most. She had probably never met a man that showed her this much respect.

"If that is all meeting dismissed" thunderd Zeus after a few minutes of dead silence.

He flashed away and so did everyone else except Artemis and Hestia. Hestia came over and gave me a warm hug and smiled.

"I am proud of your actions and I kbow your mother would be too."

Afterwards she too flashed away. Now before me stood the man-hating godess herself.

"We are currently camped at Yellowstone and I expect you to be there by midnight, but do not come emmediatly since I have to explain to my hunters first. I wish you good luck 'cause you'll need it, boy" she says making it sound like the worst insult she could think of before flashing away.

I sigh. I wonder if daddy Zeus dearest know that he just signed his own sons death warrant.

All this goes through my head while my body starts to turn into water particles and I mist travel to camp half blood.

I rematerialise at the pine tree on the border. I walk straight to the big house to tell Chiron that he could probably start working on my leural wreath when they send back my body in peices.

I knock on the door by the porch. Hearing hooves on the woden fliir I take a step back so Chiron can come out properly.

"My boy are you back?" he asks.

"Yes Chiron, I came to tell you what the counsil decided to give me as a job. I can just tell you but if you want we can gather the cabin counselors and tell everyone."

"Yes I think that would be wisest"

"Ok I'll quickly go get everyone"

I quickly run around the cabins telling everyone theres a meeting in five minutes. After rounding everyone up we sit down around the meeting table(wich by coincidence is also the ping pong table)

"Alright everyone this meeting is so I can tell you what the gods has given to me as a job."

"Are you going to be our new sword teacher?"

"Or maybe the camp director?"

That would've been nice I think. Then I announce.

" No unfortunately not. I have been assigned as the gaurdian of the hunt."

Dead silence. I wonder why no ones talking. Their faces show sympathy and remorse. The Stoll brothers stand up and come give me a pat on the back.

" Its been nice knowing ya."

"Good luck"

Then they walk out. I kind of get the same reaction from everyone. I'm actually sad that my friends don't believe in me enough to stay alive.

When just Chiron is left, I plop down on one of the couches.

"They don't think I can survive do they?" I ask in a sad tone.

" Unfortunately not my boy."

"Well I must get going then, I was told to be at their camp by midnight"

"Very well, good luck"

With that I fire travelled (well I got it from daddy blacksmith, what happens is my while body is engulfed in flame I sort of dissolve and then reform where I want to be) to Yellowstone park to my awaiting doom.
