Hades glared at his brother. "Thos isn't a fucking game Zeus! The Hermes kid is gone."
Hermes had tears in his eyes. "My son. Has he forgiven me, Hades?"
Hades shrugged. "I rarely speak to souls. All he does is cry Perseus's name."
Poseidon nodded. "Will he go back to camp? Should he allow him to live?"
Hermes glared at Poseidon. "Yes. If he isn't no thievery Will happen. No trickery and not a message shall be delivered for my long immortal life."
Athena turned her nose up at Hermes. "He was working for Kronos he could be doing so again. It's best to return him to Elysium."
Hermes stood up in a rage. "May I remind you my son was no longer working for him and died fighting him!"
Artemis narrowed her eyes. "My hunters are still at camp father. I can make sure the boy is loyal. I see no needs to hurt him if he is."
Apollo nodded. "Check on my daughter too Artemis. I'd like to know if she's forgiven me."
Artemis glared at him. "I wouldn't believe she has. I wouldn't. She would be perfect for my hunt. Strong and independent. The boy she loved feels not for her. But alas she's fallen for the Athena child. Annabeth Chase."
Athena frowned. "Do tell Anderson my apologizes. Killing her wasn't personal."
Artemis frowned. "I intend to make her my champion. She is a very well hunter as well as animal lover. I suppose I can look past her love for the Athena girl. Considering she is a girl. At least not a man. Perfect."
Apollo rolled his eyes. "But if you recruit her how could she be with Annabeth?"
Artemis sighed. "I suppose you're correct. Maybe if I could get her to join instead of loving the Athena girl."
Hermes sighed. "May we get back to my alive son."
Ares rolled his eyes. "Shouldn't we make sure the punk survives? What's he to us if a monster gets him?"
Artemis sighed. "He does have a point brother. The boy will need a godly protector."
Hermes nodded. "Artemis. You are a hunter far more inclined than even Ares. Look after my son."
"I refuse."
Hermes stared at her. "May I ask why?"
Artemis sighed. "My hunters. They are suffering many losses and I refuse to leave them for a boy. I can't even stay on Olympus long. I apologize brother but my hunters come before anything or anyone."
Hermes nodded. "Artemis you can bring your hunters along."
"My hunters are in no way fit for any battles! Many of them can't even look at a knife without having a panic attack! If you expect me to leave my family for a son who doesn't even want to be found much less by you!"
Hermes paused. "I meant not to anger you sister."
Artemis noddes. "Sorry, brother. I lost my head. I'm afraid if I'm excused I ought to get back to my hunters."
Zeus nodded and Artemis flashed away.
She arrived to many angered hunters grabbing for bows and knives. Hunter Zoe Nightshade tirmed to the goddess.
"It's Amber Watkins. An Ares boy tried to flirt with her. When she turned her down he-"
Artemis sighed. "I need to know Zoe. If someone has hurt one of my hunters I need to be aware."
