War Is Hell And I Am The Devil
It had been two weeks since Gaea made Persues fade. Artemis never came out of her palace on Olympus. Nobody dared go into her palace in fear of being shot with arrows.
The only people she even let in we're Hestia and Apollo. She barely talked to them when they were there but, it was enough to ensure that she wasn't going insane.
Right now though she was having a talk with only Hestia because Apollo was out helping Poseidon with something.
"Please Artemis you have to come out of your palace sometime" Hestia urged.
"No I'm not coming out". "You know he wouldn't want you to be sulking over him all of the time Artemis, he would want you to live your life and be happy". Artemis sighed knowing her aunt had a point. Then an idea popped into her head. She got up and ran to the throne room leaving a confused Hestia sitting in her room. She called an emergency council meeting. Artemis didn't have to wait long before all fourteen Olympians were seated in their thrones. Artemis stayed in the middle with a small smile on her face. "What is it my daughter Zeus asked confused as to why his daughter suddenly called a meeting.
"Well since my husband has gone missing and he was the only good male alive I have decided to make an oath". She couldn't bring herself to say faded which would lead her to breaking down in front of the other Olympians.
"What is this oath of yours" Poseidon asked. "Well since I only have the moon as my domain I have decided to swear off men and become the godess of the moon, virginity, child birth, and the hunt".
"The only way this oath can be broken is if Persues returns" she added in quickly. Poseidon nodded his head before looking to the rest of the Olympians for their approval of the matter. Nobody objected to the idea.
"Well looks like everyone is in agreement so it will be as you wish Artemis". Artemis nodded her thanks to Poseidon before they began the process.
TIME LAPSE THREE THOUSAND YEARS LATER
Artemis and her group of eternal maidens were hunting down a pack of hellhounds when they were surrounded bye hundreds of monsters ranging from Cyclops, lastrygonian giants, empousa, hellhounds, and dracenea.
A Cyclopse walked to the front of the monsters (he was obviously the leader)to address the godess and her maidens. "Well, well, well look at what we have hear a bunch of tastie snacks from what I can tell. Artemis knew that they could win but, they would surely lose some hunters.
"Charge" the Cyclops bellowed. Before the army of monsters could take a step a black arrow whizzed bye the heads of the hunters into an hellhounds eye.
The monsters all seemed to take a few steps back with terrified expressions on their faces. Then a man dressed in black assassins creed clothes with a black and silver sword Artemis seemed to remember a little but, couldn't put her finger on it.
"I-it's y-you" the Cyclops said fearfully. "What's wrong your not scared of little o'l me are you". "Please were sorry just let us live".
"Sorry but, you were about to hurt someone close to me and besides I just got back from my uh, vacation so I really have to work out some kinks".
In the blink of an eye the man ran forward cutting through the monsters like they were butter. A hellhound lunged at the man but, was cut down in mid air. A empousa saw this as its chance to kill the man. It threw its dagger at his head. The man saw this coming so he caught the blade out of the air before fighting with a sword and knife.
In a matter of seconds all of the monsters were dead except for the Cyclops who was leading the army. It was bound bye what looked like hand cuffs made off shadows.
The man sheathed his sword and stood smirking at the hunters who were staring at him in awe and wonder. Of course all they could see of his face was his mouth. The hood was enchanted to hide the rest of his face.
Once the hunters regained their composer they aimed their bows at this mysterious man. "Who are you" Artemis demanded but, she felt like shadow already new him yet she still could not figure it out? The man's smirk disappeared and he stayed silent.
A single tear fell from his hood. "Why are you crying boy" a hunter snarled at him? "None of your business hunter but, I am here to give Artemis here some clues as to who I am".
The hunters all stayed quiet to hear what this man had to say. "Well then Artemis ask this Cyclops about me then ask your brother if his army is ready for war". Artemis stared at him in confusion. "Oh and uh call a emergency council meeting the others might want to hear this as well" he said before vanishing from sight.
Artemis did as the man said. She was currently in the throne room with the gods, campers both Greek and Roman, and the hunters.
Everyone was waiting patiently to start this meeting. "So why have you called us here Artemis" Zeus asked? She retold the story of what happened an hour ago. When she was done she clicked her fingers and the Cyclops appeared.
"Please send me back to Tartarus please I promise to never hurt another half blood just don't let the devil take me" it pleaded. This had scared everybody since never had a monster asked to be sent to Tartarus before.
"You called him a devil, why" Apollo asked? The monster nodded. "He was given the name from the phrase war is hell". "So he is the devil". "He tortures and kills us monsters for information on Gaea and the war".
"I've told you all I know please just kill me". It got its wish pretty quickly when a gold arrow sprouted from its throat.
"The man also told me to ask something of Apollo" Artemis said. At this Apollo turned to Artemis with a confused expression on his face. "Well what was it you have to ask me".
"He wanted to know if your army was ready". There was an awkward silence for a few minutes before everything happened at once."Yes I knew he would come back" Apollo shouted! "Its good to see you to Apollo" the man said walking out of a shadow. Apollo couldn't control his happiness anymore, he ran to his old friend and embraced him in a hug.
"Um Apollo mind explaining who this is" Hera asked. "Oh yah right it's just I'm surprised Artemis hasn't figured out who he is yet".
"How would I know who he is I've never met him before in my entire life". "Oh I don't know how about the only guy you based your oath off of" Apollo said sarcastically. Then it a clicked inside her head the way he seemed to be radiating so much power and how he always lurked in the shadows.
At first nothing happened but, then Artemis ran forward. Persues thought she was going to hug him but, instead she kneed him in his crown jewels and started throwing punches at him. "Ow" whack "Artemis" Whack "please stop" whack.
When she finally finished she fell down on top of him crying her heart out with joy. When she managed to pull herself together and he had gotten up they stared into each others eyes neither blinking until he leaned in a gave her a kiss which lasted a couple of minutes only breaking up from the lack of air.
They leaned each others heads together. Then a silver arrow appeared in Persues thigh making him fall to the ground. Everyone turned to see a hunter holding her bow with an unlimited amount of hatred burning in her eyes. Poseidon and Hestia were glaring murderously at the hunter with their weapons drawn.
"Zoe control Phoebe" Artemis demanded. Her huntress and best friend nodded before tackling the hunter to the ground. Zoe was the only hunter who knew about Persues and Artemis relationship which of course she approved of after hearing what this Primordial had done for her mistress.
"I'm fine everyone let me up it was just a small arrow" Persues sighed. He pulled the arrow out of his leg and stood up after eating a cube of ambrosia.
Now everyone was looking at the two with shocked expressions.
"Well this is going to take some time explaining so might as well get comfortable"Persues said making a couch appear and sitting down with Artemis on his lap.
"So who wants to tell my story". Apollo raised his hand. "This is gonna be some kind of ninja film he watched or something" Persues muttered but, everyone still heard him and laughed. "Okay Apollo start".
