Chapter 6

Percy's/Jared's POV

It's been a week since I last saw Lisa. A week and I'm already bored.

'Hey Nico, I'm bored' I admitted staring at the ceiling in the Hades cabin.

Nico sighs. 'I'm bored too' He says in a bored tone.

'You wanna go on a monster hunt? You know, like the Hunters?' I ask.

Nico is instantly up. 'You bet! Anything to bring some sort of excitement in this boring life' He says excitedly.

I laugh. 'Since when is the life of a demigod boring?' I ask.

Nico rolled his eyes. 'Since we kicked every monsters ass and walked away like bosses' He says like its obvious.

I chuckle. 'Damn right!' I said fist bumping Nico.

I went to my closet and pulled out two robes. Yeah, I was kinda playing Assassins Creed and fell in love with their armor and stuff so I created Assassin clothes that look exactly like the Assassin Armor.

I tossed Nico one and put the other one on. 'Why are we wearing the Assassin Clothes?' Nico asks curiously.

I roll my eyes. 'Because, we are going to kick ass as gods' I said changing back to my normal form as I put my Assassin Hood up. Nico nodded and pulled his on too.

Once I put my knives, smoke bombs, traps and I even have hidden blades in my vambraces.

'You ready bro?' I ask Nico.

Nico nods. 'You bet I am. Let's go!' He says flashing away.

I smile and flash over to him. I find him already fighting off a pack of hellhound.

'Hey you started the party without me! I'm hurt!' I said summoning my spear.

Suddenly the legendary monster, Chimera, appeared in front of me.

'You are a god. It is against Ancient Laws for you to attack us' It growled.

I gave it my best 'Are we really having this conversation right now?' look and smirked. 'Chimera, does it look like I give two shits who I kill? I'm bored so I went hunting, and well today is rather your unlucky day since you are the one I'm hunting' I admitted with fake concern for it.

It glared at me and lunged, it's arms outstretched to try to scratch my sexy face. I ducked and kicked it hard on the gut.

'Is that all you got?' I asked letting out a laugh.

Man I remember when this was hard to do. When killing monsters was NOT fun since they were all pretty much bigger than you, stronger than you, and well a whole lot uglier than you. Now, they are still ugly but killable!

I played around with Chimera for a few minutes, enjoying the moment, until Nico yelled out 'Dude stop playing with it and just kill it'

I rolled my eyes in annoyance. 'Can't a god savor the moment?' I ask annoyed.

Nico goes and sits down in a log. 'No, hurry up, I want more monsters to kill' He said.

I sigh and turn my full attention to the Chimera. It tried to bite my hand off for some reason. I summoned my shield, which the Chimera ended up kissing as it smacked against it. I laughed and swung my sword at impossible speeds, beheading the Chimera.

I walked away from it towards Nico who was grinning. 'About time man!' He said exasperated.

I roll my eyes. 'Whatever, come on. Let's go find some more monsters' I said flashing us to another forest.

After the light died down, we came face to faces with the hunters and Artemis herself.

Ah shit, We are so dead, were my only thoughts as they all drew their bows and aimed them at us.

Nico and I looked at each other. Then we both nodded, I summoned a badass bow that made Artemis' bow look like a toy for a 5 year old.

It was pure white, with a yellow-ish glow to it. It didn't have a quiver of arrows because when I pulled the string back, an arrow would materialize.

Nico had a badass bow too. But his was dark and looked like it was a shadow. It had a slight glow of darkness to it. All in all, it looked plain scary.

I looked at the Hunters and saw that they were all looking at Nico's now with dread and fear. I instantly get annoyed. I mean hello, can't they see my badass bow here too? Am I invisible or something?

'WHO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU HERE?' A very pissed off looking Artemis asked/demanded.

I laughed lightly. 'I'm here to hunt down some monsters because my brother and I are quite bored. Why are you here?' I ask pretending I don't know who they are.

'Oh and I'm lord Thor, god of stuff and this is my brother Loki god of some other stuff' I said whirling my hand like I don't have a care in the world.

'So, you guys are Norse Gods?' Artemis asks.

Nico and I shrug. 'Sure'

'That's impossible. The Norse Gods all faded long ago! Who are you really?' She asked curiously.

I sighed. 'I'm not an enemy' I said trying to not give myself away.

Unfortunately I didn't sense the Hunter sneaking up behind me and pulling my hood down.

Nico starts laughing. 'Dude you let a little girl sneak up on you?!' He asked in disbelief.

I glared at him. 'Percy?' A voice called.

I turned and saw Thalia running up to me. I grinned. 'Yeah?' I ask.

I opened my arms thinking she was going to hug me. Little did I know she had a mean uppercut coming my way. Thankfully I'm a god and all so it didn't hurt. Well, it hurt her more than me, that's for sure.

'Ouch, what the Hades?' Thalia asked confused, rubbing her knuckles.

IN THE UNDERWORLD.

Hades sneezed. 'STOP USING MY NAME AS A CURSE!!!' Hades yelled irritated.

BACK TO PERCY.

Well Thalia, me and Nico are gods! We are so badass now!' I said smirking as Nico tried to punch me for giving him away.

Thalia's eyes widened. 'You and Nico are Gods?? But how?' She asked shocked.

'Yes I want to know this as well' Artemis added.

'Oh very well, it's a bit of a story so let's go sit down, start a campfire and roast some marshmallows because it's a sad story' I said clapping my hands, making a fire appear and some benches.

The Hunters jumped in shock when everything appeared out of nowhere but then settled down on the benches around the fire.

I was about to start when a certain flurry of blond hair crashed against me. 'Well hello to you as well Lisa!' I said smiling.

Yeah, I told Lisa who I really was a couple years back. She was a little confused but she got used to it.

All the hunters were shocked that Lisa would come out and hug me. What can I say, Im pretty damn popular nowadays.

'Hi Percy! Did you miss me?!' She asked excitedly.

I smiled widely. 'You bet I missed you! How have you been?' I ask sitting her down on my lap.

'Pretty good, I'm a good archer now!' She said happily.

I smiled and placed a hand on her shoulder. 'Good job! I'm proud of you Lisa!' I responded.

Lisa grinned.

'Ok, can we get back to the story? And I also want to know how you two know each other as well' Artemis said slightly glaring at me.

'Oh right, I forgot you girls didn't know I knew about her. I would have thought Phoebe would have told you' I said looking at Phoebe who was glaring at me.

'Right, anyways, a few years back, I'm sure you heard of how I disappeared. Well I disappeared because in Camp HalfBlood, a lot of things happened. A kid who turned out to be a son of Zeus named Raven, arrived at camp about 3 months after the war ended. He was nice at first. Then he started making friend and not long after that, he started to get me in trouble. He would steal things and blame me for it.

Nobody believed me when I told them I didn't take their stuff. But somehow the stolen objects would find their way into my cabin and everyone would glare at me. But then those glares turned to eyes of hatred. Soon enough I was having rocks thrown at me. Not small ones ether. And when no one was looking, Raven would cut me with a knife or even stab me. I found my way to the infirmary more than a few times because of him. But I stayed because of Annabeth. But soon enough she started drifting away from me. Then one day I saw her having a make out session with Raven. I snapped with rage and betrayal, I charged Raven and well I beat him up. I had so much rage that I almost killed him if my father hadn't come to take me away' I said tears coming down my eyes. I tried to keep them at hay but they wouldn't listen, stupid tears!

I sighed and continued my story. 'After dad took me to Atlantis, I started having pain. But it wasn't a normal pain. I felt like I was dying. My Achilles Curse burned out and left me when Annabeth stopped being my Mortal Point. At some point the Fates showed up when I wasn't in pain anymore. Turned out I kinda became a god. I was so broken and destroyed that when my mortal point vanished, it left with my mortality. I became immortal, a god, and a powerful one at that. Soon after the fates showed up, I received my domains and Sacred Animal and my weapons' I said smiling sadly.

Lisa hugged my tightly because she knew it hurt me to think about my past. 'It's ok Percy' she said smiling up at me.

I smiled back. 'Thanks' I whispered to her.

Her smile widened even more at that.

'Anyways, that's pretty much how I became a god. Later when I woke up, I went to the Underworld and found Nico fighting some Skeleton things and I decided to help. After disposing of the enemies, I made Nico a god and the fates again showed up and gave him his domains and such' I finished.

When I looked up at the Hunters, I saw many of them with angry expressions on their faces, some had sad looks while others were just plain shocked. Thalia looked like she was about to murder someone, most likely Annabeth and Raven. Artemis looked at me with sadness and some other emotion I don't really know of.

'I'm sorry to hear that Percy. That bitch deserves to die!' Artemis said.

I grinned. 'She already is dead!' I said which caused Thalia and Artemis to give me a shocked look.

'Woah, I didn't kill her if that's what's going through your heads! Well I kinda did but it was indirectly!' I said putting my hands up in surrender.

'How did you indirectly kill Annabeth?' Thalia asked.

'Oh well funny you should ask. When I returned to camp, I went under my Jared Price disguise' I started Snapping my fingers and turning into Jared Price.

Artemis was a bit shocked but didn't say anything.

'Nico also went with me in disguise. After a couple days, Annabeth was all angry that I was humiliating Raven and taking away all his fame. So I went to practice sword fighting with Nico in the arena when Raven shows up and all. Nico ended up ripping my shirt off and I had to run before some Aphrodite girl tried to rape me. When I came back with a shirt on, I saw Nico fighting Raven one on one. I was cheering Nico on when Annabeth snuck up behind me and literally tried to murder me with her invisibility hat on. Well let's just say the camp turned into an uproar because I was kinda popular and all the girls kinda had a crush on me' I said softly hoping nobody heard. Of course my luck is never very good because a lot of the Hunters were glaring at me.

I smiled. 'I'm not making this up you know! Ask Nico he can confirm it' I quickly said.

Nico nodded. 'It's true, We became camp celebrities pretty much, and we even had fan girls for some odd reason' Nico pointed out.

I nodded. 'Yup, and when I woke up from you know, being stabbed TWICE! and almost being murdered, the gods had Annabeth in chains. I went to Olympus with Nico and found out that most of the camp had beat up Annabeth when I was knocked out. She was battered and bleeding from quite a few places. Long story short, Zeus sentenced her to death and that's how Annabeth died. But she did swear she was going to get revenge on Olympus and stuff' I said like it was no big deal.

'She stabbed you twice?!' Artemis asked bewildered.

I nodded. 'Yeah, from behind too! I never took that whole, stabbed in the back saying very seriously but well it happened to me twice in a couple seconds so I'm a believer now!' I said smirking.

This caused the Hunters to laugh lightly. 'Well I hope she is tortured for all eternity for what she did to you' Thalia said earning nods of agreement from all the Hunters and surprisingly enough, Artemis as well.

'Well story time is over, I got monsters to kill and then run back to camp before anyone notices us missing' I said getting up.

'Wait, you haven't told us how you met Lisa or what your domains are' Artemis said.

I groaned. 'I can't say how I met Lisa since it's her story. Unless she says-' I started.

'It's ok Percy you can tell them' Lisa said looking unsure.

I looked at her. 'Are you sure?' I asked.

She nodded. 'Yeah, it's about time I tell someone' She says.

I nodded. 'Alright' I turned to the hunters as I sat back down.

'I met Lisa when she was just a little girl, I was walking through the streets when I saw a little girl being dragged into a house by her hair. I was angry that a little girl was being handled like that. So I followed her invisible and turns out that the man that was manhandling her was her step father. What's worse is that when I made my way upstairs, the step father was just about to rape Lisa' I said.

Instantly all the hunters started yelling, erupting in anger at the thought of a sick bastard raping his own daughter. I felt the same way but I waited patiently until the yelling was done.

When they finished yelling I continued. 'As I was saying, the step father was going to rape Lisa. I got angry and punched the man in the ribs breaking several of them. But I didn't stop there, I controlled the mans blood and made his blood boil, which is very painful. By the time I was done, I had kinda evaporated all of his blood making him all skin and bones, and he had smoke coming out of his body and well he stank a bit too. Anyways, I turned to Lisa and told her that everything was going to be alright. I took her under my wing for a few days until I asked her if she wanted to join the Hunters after I explained to her what you girls were. She agreed and I took her to your camp. Ever since then, we have hung out whenever we could and stuff. I've actually come to her aid a few times. Like the time when you girls were surrounded on all sides by monsters. Lisa here prayed to me and I came and helped you girls out' I finished smiling at Lisa.

Artemis stood up once I finished my story and did something I never thought I'd live through.

She wet up to me and hugged me! I was in a state of shock, no surprise there.

'Thank you for protecting Lisa. And for bringing her to my camp. She has been nothing but a huge help to us and a great friend' Artemis said pulling away.

I finally snapped out of my comatose state and grinned. 'It was no problem, I couldn't stand by and not do anything to help' I said sheepishly.

'Well and that's how Percy became my hero!' Lisa said jumping on me and wrapping her arms around my waist. I hugged her back and smiled at her.

'Well it's getting late. Nico and I have to go before people start asking questions' I said excusing myself from the Hunters.

Before Nico and I flashed away, Artemis came up to us.

'You and Nico are both welcome in my Hunters camp anytime you want. You have earned it' Artemis said.

In reply I just smiled warmly at her. 'Thank you Lady Artemis' I said with a wink and flashed out, but not before I saw her glare at me, her cheeks blushing furiously.

I laughed lightly. Man, today was weird.
