Olympian Blood

Chapter 3

Artemis

I woke up to the sound of the alarm on my phone, with my eyes still closed I tried to reach for it but noticed I was unable to move my arm. Opening my eyes slowly I saw that Athena was asleep on my arm while Apollo was resting his head on my stomach with his body on my other arm. My alarm was getting louder by the minute, I was almost surprised it didn't wake up the two of them, but I also remember them sleeping through a whole earthquake before.

With my legs still free to use I kicked Apollos legs that were right beside me. He jumped up cursing loudly oblivious forgetting we were in a pillow fort because once he stood up every pillow and blanket we used came crashing down on Athena and I.

"Ugh Apollo! You're so dramatic it wasn't even that hard." I growled rolling my eyes.

"Easy for you to say, your not the one with a bruise forming on their leg" Apollo grumbled while rubbing his leg. "What time is it anyway?"

"It's 7 am" I answered when I finally reached my phone. "Ugh, it's so early! This face of mine needs its beauty sleep Deer." Apollo exclaimed pointing to his face. 

"Well, brother it seems you've never been well-rested a day in your life then." Athena butted in drowsily as she rubbed the sleep out of her eyes.

Apollo crossed his arms and pouted at the two of us. "Well look if our flight is at 2 today we need to get an early start as you said, we still have to pack all of our things and also clean up the bus," I explained.

"Yeah I guess you're right, we can grab a quick snack from the hotel breakfast and just get brunch on the way to the airport" Apollo suggested, walking to the bathroom.

"Sounds good, let's go!" I exclaimed.

After we ate we gathered our things that were in the hotel room and headed down to the tour bus that was parked on the side of the hotel building.

We began packing up the last 6 months of our lives in our suitcases and eventually finished around 12. We stepped back and admired our handiwork, the bus looked almost brand new! Besides the big dent above the couch from a fight Athena and Apollo had. And all the doodles of animals on the wall beside my window. There was also the scratch marks all over the floor from when that rogue wolf got in.

'Wow so many memories, I'm really gonna miss this place.' I thought with a sigh.

After going with our bus driver Reggie to drop off the bus, we decided to take a taxi to the airport. It was now 1 pm by the time we arrived, finally parting ways with Reggie was a little sad. He was a sweet old man that barely said much to us but he's dealt with all of our craziness from when we first started touring 3 years ago.

"Its been a blast Reggie are you sure about retiring, I hope to be going on tour again, it would be weird with someone else driving us around. I'm pretty sure you're the only one that can handle us and enjoy doing so." Pollo admitted while he gave Reggie a tight hug.

"Haha" Reggie let out an airy chuckle as he patted Pollos back. "You know driving you kids around has been the most excitement I've had at such an old age...so unpredictable you three are, you've grown so much from the time I met you guys, I know you guys were born to do great things, the best is yet to come. As for me, I've done all I can it's about time I go home" Reggie finished pulling away from Apollo.

"Thank you, Reggie, for your one of the few people in our life that has always kept a watchful eye on us and we are forever in your debt after all the jams you've gotten us out of," I confessed giving him a quick hug and he kissed my cheek before letting me go.

"Always Deer," Reggie said with a wink. "Blah, you all are so sappy," Athena blurted out. We each turned to look at her with a knowing glaze because she would miss him the most he was her chess partner after all. Since Apollo and I could never sit still for that long to play such a tedious game.
