( Third p.o.v )

Percy Jackson has been considered dead over the years. He also no longer went by Percy but as Wrath. It was about time to meet up at the house the friends had made in the pit. Unfortunately, he knew he was going to have to wait as it was time for the quest. So instead he waited at the bar earning money and prizes.

( Thalia's p.o.v )

It's been two years since Percy sent to Tartarus for being framed. The hunt and I were headed to camp half-blood to relax for a while. Monsters were being more smart than usual making the hunt more difficult. Artemis thought we could use a break, I messaged Nico to meet me there once we arrive. We had an hour run before making it to camp. Once we arrived we were greeted by the camp and Nico who appeared next to me. Everyone was going to go back to their activities when Rachael started trembling. The green mist started pouring out her mouth as she spoke.

" SIX MINORS WILL ANSWER THE CALL.
THE TWIN BOWS MUST GO HOME.
THROUGH HARDSHIP THREE WILL FALL.
THE HEROS OLD LOVER MUST GO.
MANY WILL COME BACK FROM THEIR TOMBS.
THE ONLY WAY TO WIN IS TO GIVE INTO THE SINS."

She passed out as Will caught her. "I believe this calls for a meeting with the gods. Everyone to the campfire. I'll call the gods," spoke Chiron. Everyone was whispering as they made their way to the fire. I sat with Nico as he was telling me what he thought of all this. "I feel like we aren't going to like this Thalia," whispered Nico.

Everyone sat with their cabins except for a small group. I noticed that those twin boys from not to long ago sat at the front. I had Nico look at them and explain what he knew about them. He explained how they only consider each other family and had tattoos of sorts that they said belonged to a sin. Nico, however, didn't know anything about these sins. We looked at the group of kids they had quite the selection. They had two Aphrodite kids who looked like they hated their cabin. One Demeter child who looked ready to kill. Six hunters who belonged to Apollo, Hermes, and Ares. Up front were the twins of Hermes. "Those kids ain't nothing to mess with. I heard they bested the cabin counselors which is sad for the minor gods of course." I was going to tell Nico something after that but got interpreted by the gods flashing in.

The chattering stopped as they made seats appear. They have all aged a bit and looked stressed out since they found out the truth. "Can someone recite the prophecy, please?" asked my father. " Six minors will answer the call. The twin bows must go home. Through hardship three will fall. Many come back from their tombs. They only way to when is to give into the Sins." said Annabeth. "Anyone has an idea?" spoke Hestia.

Athena and Annabeth, of course, were coming up with there own ideas of what they thought was correct. They just had some things they couldn't figure out. "The minors must be us gods," said Annabeth. "Or it could be the young campers," said Athena glaring at Annabeth. They haven't been on good terms since Percy. "What about twin bows?" asked Apollo. Athena and Annabeth got to thinking until Annabeth made a face. "It has to be about you lord Apollo and lady Artemis," Annabeth groaned. Athena didn't seem to be sure which didn't happen too often. "You two are the only twin archers around here and at New Rome." that's when we heard a loud groan from the small group.

A girl we hadn't seen stood up from the middle of the group. She had raven black hair with sea green tips and her eyes. Her eyes were so beautiful, they were a bright stormy grey with sea green specks. "Who do you belong to the child," asked my father. "She's mine father," said lady Athena. "I can't believe them, my stupid sister, a goddess. The answer you're looking for is my brothers right here," she said pointing to the twin boys. "Would you elaborate... Um," said Athena."Its Shabina, mother  I don't use that stupid name you gave me. Now as for the answer your looking for is right here," she pointed at the twins. I was going to ask how she knew but of course, Annabeth interrupted. "How would you know sis?" Shabina rolled her eyes," Their secondary weapons are bows. Twin bows to be exact, just like them. Show them, brothers," she ended up looking at them.

The boys got up and held out their hands making a fist and poof. Two of the most beautiful bows I had ever seen in the world. One had a gold and sea green one while the other had a silver and sea green one. "What are their names?" I asked.  The boys blushed red. "Sunlight," said the one with the gold. "Moonlight," said the one with the silver. "You named them after us?" smiled Apollo. "Yes, my lord I am Gunter this is my brother Hunter he named his after Lady Artemis. We thought the names were fitting. We can change it if you like?" "No we like it," said Apollo.

"Hello you're forgetting something," yelled Annabeth. "If you're so smart would you be able to explain the going home part," she smirked.  "Sure you dumb bitch it's Tartarus. That's our home. To our father and mothers." Shabina said. "What do you mean," asked the council.
"That will be explained in time. For right now I think besides the boys Annabeth, Nico, Thalia, and Leo should go." I looked at the girl then to Nico. He nodded at me then turned to her, "Why us." "Well, who do you think will be down there in the pit." "Percy," I mumbled. She smiled, "Right so he'd probably rather have friends find him so you are the best to go." "What about us two," said Leo. "Well besides the fact your dating Annabeth they could use your flames and well Annabeth has already been down there so she should be able to hold her own," Shabina said. Everyone thought about it shaking their heads to agree. "You shall be the ones to go," ordered my father.

"Father one more thing we don't know is who the lover is," spoke Athena. Everyone thought about it for a while till Lord Hermes burst out laughing.
Lord Hermes kept laughing until he whispered in Apollo's ear. Apollo was silent at first then whispered in Hephaestus ear. All three gods were silent for a moment then busted out laughing. "Ugh... what's so funny brother," spoke my mistress. "The old lover is Calypso," wheezed Apollo.

Leo went pale and Annabeth went red in anger. "She's not coming. She can't even leave the island," fumed Annabeth. Lord Hermes disappeared and reappeared with Calypso. "I heard I'm needed for a quest," she smiled.
