Percy POV

I couldn't wait to finish the tasks that Athena required me to do in order to marry my girlfriend Annabeth. "Athena I'm finished with the tasks, can you flash me to the camp?" I asked the wisdom goddess with a small smile. Athena nods to me before touching my shoulder and flashing us to the camp. I run to the entrance of the camp, I see Chiron and Nico talking before waving to them. "Hey Nico, I'm back from my quest. Do you know where Annabeth is at?" I ask him softly. Nico flinches a bit before nodding and telling me where to find her. I was a bit confused at what I heard right after I left. "Poor percy" Chiron said to Nico frowning a bit. I make my way to Zeus' fist, but stop when I hear a girl and guy's voice. I see a couple making out not to far from me, I gasp when I get a good view of the girl. 'Why?' I thought to himself as tears flow down my face. "Ooh Brandon you're so much better than Percy" Annabeth said loudly as she kisses the son of Poseidon. I couldn't believe that my girlfriend would cheat on me after everything we did together. I took out the silver ring with a blue diamond on it. 'Seaweed brain and wise girl forever' is engraved on the inside. "How could you cheat on me Annabeth?" I yelled at the daughter of Athena loudly. "I just came back from my quest with your mother to propose and I find you cheating on me" I said to her as more tears comes out of my eyes. I show the ring to her before taking out riptide and slicing it in half. I use my water powers and dump water on both of them before leaving angrily. I run to my cabin and slam the door before laying down on the bed. Two weeks later I decided to go to the gods and ask for death. Everyone replaced me for his brother because of him doing twelve labors of Hercules. The only ones who haven't forgotten me are Nico, Thalia, and Chiron.  On the way to the gods, I can hear many of the bad things that my suppose friends are saying which makes me angrier. I walk into the building and ask for the key to the 600th floor. After threatening the key person I make my way into the elevator and wait until I reach the 600th floor. I walk out of the elevator until I reach the god's throne room. I stand before the gods in hope that they grant me my one request. Zeus looks at me with his curious filled blue eyes. The rest of the Olympians did the same.

"Percy Jackson, what do you wish of us?" Zeus asked me in his deep commanding voice. My father looked at me with worry. I looked terrible. My green eyes were rimmed with red, tears flowing down my face, and I have no doubt that I am as pale as a sheet of paper. Hestia looked sad; I think she already knows why I am here. Artemis looks at me with genuine curiosity. I took a deep breath before looking at the god of skies.

"Lord Zeus I wish to die" The room got cold as the Olympians gasped. My father looked sick and Artemis' eyes widened. Hestia looked even more depressed and Ares looked sad. Aphrodite looked depressed that her favorite pairing percabeth was destroyed. Even Zeus looked at me with worry.

 "Why do you wish to die Hero of Olympus?" I smiled sadly. I felt pain in my chest as I grip where my heart is at. Athena seemed to notice my pain. She looked regretful.

"I wish to die because the campers have forgotten me and the daughter of Athena has broken my heart." I looked at Athena smiling sadly. "You were right; in the end my fatal flaw would destroy me. After all I've done for them; they cast me aside because a new hero did the twelve labors of Hercules, while I have won one war for them. I've been treated like trash at camp half-blood for the last two weeks and Annabeth cheated on me with my half-brother. I was foolish to believe that a hero gets a happy ending. There's nothing for me here now. Sure I have my mother, but she doesn't need me." The Olympians looked downcast, I wonder why. It's not like most of them liked me. After the gods looked at each other, Zeus had a glint in his eyes that I didn't like at all.

"Perseus Jackson, you say you wish to die because you have no purpose in life?" I nodded. "If I were to give you a purpose, would you accept immortality like one of Artemis' hunters?" I thought on what he said. A new purpose? I sighed. It seems the gods don't want me to die. Let's see what they offer me. I nodded again to Zeus' question. He smiled and looked at Artemis. They were probably talking to each other through their mind. I noticed Artemis' face was calm at the beginning before turning red in anger before turning back to normal under a glare from her father. I wondered what Zeus said to Artemis that got her angry. Zeus turned his attention back to me.

"Artemis has agreed to offer you the position guardian of the hunt. You will have to protect the hunt and be the only male there" Zeus said to me. My eyes widened and my jaw dropped. I looked at Artemis before turning my attention to the other Olympians. I laughed a bit on the inside when I noticed the others with the same expression as mine except Apollo's. Hestia nods to me with a small smile before I turn to Zeus. I nod to the King of gods. "I accept Lord Zeus" I said to him as I look at each god.

"I Perseus Jackson swear on the Riverstix to protect everyone in the hunt, not to flirt with the hunters, and give my life to save Artemis and her hunt" I said loudly as the lightning signifies my oath. I noticed that Artemis looks happy.

Hestia walks over to me and wraps her arms around my body in a hug. "Would you like to be my champion percy?" she asks me with a small smile. Hestia is my favorite goddess out of everyone, so I nod to her. I felt stronger after being blessed by Hestia. "Anyone else want to bless the demigod?" Zeus asks everyone. Each Olympian blessed me except for Artemis and the love goddess. "Ooh it's my turn now" The love goddess said as I panicked when a pink beam hits me. I didn't feel any different, but I did noticed that every goddess was blushing. 

"Now that everyone blessed Perseus, I would like to ask you to leave the throne room. We need to discuss something else" Zeus said to me. I nod to him before turning around and leaving, but not before hearing something interesting the gods said. 'Apollo is getting punished?' I thought to myself as I close the doors.

 Apollo's POV

I know what's coming, and I'm afraid of what my punishment will be now that everyone is tired of me having more children than all gods. I didn't like the evil look that my sister is giving me.

"I talked to everyone and I agree with the idea of Artemis. It will show you on how the other side feels" Zeus said to me. 

All the gods grin before each of them shoot a beam at me, I let out a scream and pass out.





I'm done for this chapter. I hope everyone likes it so far. Next chapter will be Apollo's punishment, him moving into the hunt and having to get use to his new body. Let me know in the comments what name should Apollo have. Feel free to give me some ideas of how apollo can corrupt artemis into becoming perverted with anything to do with percy.
