Chapter 11
3rd POV
I continued to glide on the surface of the water for a while until I saw land. My vision focused on the Avengers' plane going into the ground and I smirked. If I wasn't going to beat them back to land I sure as hell was going to beat them back inside of the tower. Once I was three or so feet away from the shore, well, brick wall that separated the water from the elevated walk-way, in which people were staring at me in slight shock and awe before they saw what I was and scattered as I jumped out of the water. Evaporating the ice-socks that I had and landing where a decent majority of them were at.
I looked sideways at them and I smirked, mortals were always scared of things that they couldn't understand. I looked back towards the tower and used my earth powers to see that they were in the elevator going up at a rather fast pace...for an elevator anyways. I locked the metal causing the elevator to go up and I spread my wings of shadows, shot into the air and into the direction of the tower. Once I was about a mile away I un-jammed the elevator and it started to go up again, but I was already in the main lobby, shifted into human form, and sitting on the couch sharpening one of my knives. I looked back devilishly as they started to come out from the elevator.
"What took you so long" I said and Tony sneered
"The elevator had a small glitch" he said "I'm going to fix it in a second"
"Well you know how unsafe those things are" I said only paying attention to my knives. I didn't really need to sharpen my knives, but I felt like it "I personally don't want to be caught in a metal death-trap again. Especially since it could at any moment, decide to fail and plummet through the shaft, down thirty or so feet at more than fifty miles per hour" the others paled and Tony sighed.
"Well when you put it that way" he said "fine, I'll put a stairway up the tower"
"Good" I said and I stood up, sheathed my knife, and made my glamour and my robe disappear, and they gasped in surprise as they saw my true form again.
"I don't think that I am ever going to get used to that" I heard Clint say as I walked to the kitchen before opening the fridge, grabbing the pancakes, and putting the rest of them on a plate. Then, after I drowned them in syrup, I dug in with pretty much everyone watching me in surprise. I stopped eating and glared at them, making them look away, and I ate the rest and then took care of my mess, and dishes.
"If you don't like how much I eat, then I suggest you not watch me" I said and they were still looking everywhere else but me, and I just sighed and growled lowly and walked out of the room before flame-traveling to the pool and diving in immediately.
A shadow opened up at the corner of the water and a head, a Hellhound that I knew all to familiarly, came out and grabbed my shirt before dragging me through the shadow to who knows where. I came out in the middle of a forest, and I looked around and froze. I was just outside of the camp's borders, and I ducked as Mrs. O' Leary came barreling in my direction. Wait I wasn't supposed to even be on Long Island, under oath.
"Lady Styx, please explain as to why I am not dead" I asked and she rose out of the water and shrugged.
"As being our champion, the effects of our rivers, power, and oath is null and void" she said and I stepped forwards as she stood and started to 'sink' into the water.
"So I can" I started and she nodded
"You no longer have an oath to go by, and in so can go anywhere you want. No limits" she said and I smiled and thanked her before turning to Mrs. O' Leary who was sitting patiently inside of the Camp's border. I shifted and playfully lept at her, and for the next couple hours we played, running around the camp, sounding like fighting animals. Then Mrs. O' Leary broke away and something jumped out of the shadows and started to attack me, no someone. A face that I hadn't seen in a long time...Nico. He jumped out of a shadow with his sword out and rushed me, and I shifted and parried, he went high, low, and wide, but I blocked every strike. Then I blasted him with water and lent on my sword as he stood there fuming, and soaked.
"You've sure gotten sloppy" I said and his eyes widened and his sword dropped to the ground. Then he rushed up to me and hugged me.
"I thought that you had died" he said and I shook my head
"I thought that you had died" I said pulling off my mask and putting my weapons away, and then I lifted his sword with my powers and gave it back to him. He took it and put it back in its scabbard and we hugged again before catching up with each-other as we walked through the woods. He told me about how he had survived and where he had gone to recover, his fathers palace, and he also told me that him and Will had gotten married and were now partial immortals.
I told him about my adventure, fighting Annabeth because Gaea had taken over her body, Gaea killing her because she couldn't win using Annabeth's body, then I told them about the oath, my getting tortured for a short time by Lycaon, turning my first time, meeting the Avengers and causing trouble, killing and absorbing Tartarus, joining the Avengers, and everything that happened with me and the Hunt, and Artemis.
"Wait so you're now a Primordial, a werewolf, and Artemis is your mate" he said
"And the Hunt is now called the Silver-Moon Hunters, or the Silver-Moon Pack I guess you could say" I said "since Artemis' bond and my bond with them as their guardian had grown, they are now all at least a quarter, maybe a third part werewolf" I pat his back.
"Oh no. It's fine" he said and I smirked "now we just have a group of man-hunting werweolf women that have enhanced hunting and fighting skills, oh and did I mention that they hate almost every male person in the world" I laughed
"You'll be fine" I said "plus it's not like their going to rip you apart, though they could, they aren't" I said and then I smelled the air and noticed that we were heading towards camp, and I immediately turned around.
"What are you doing" Nico asked stopping "I thought that you wanted to go to camp" he said
"I do, but I don't at the same time" I said "all I'll be there is an outcast, a person that wouldn't fit in anymore because I have no one to relate to anymore" I kept on walking the other way and I could practically hear Nico's thoughts as he debated on wither to follow me or go somewhere else. Mrs. O' Leary followed me almost immediately, and I smiled as she bounced ahead playfully nipping at the spot where my tail was, and I growled warning her to not do it again.
"No you are not chewing on my tail today" I said and she whined and gave me puppy eyes, but I turned away and kept on walking.
"Wait did I hear that correctly" Nico said running up to me "you have a tail" he looked at me incredulously.
"Yes" I growled "I have a tail" it suddenly felt really, really uncomfortable now that it was the center of attention.
"Can I see it" he said
"No" I kept on walking
"Please just for a second"
"No"
"Why not"
"Because if I get it out, she will drag me into the shadows by my tail and when I come out of them, she'll have pinned me down and drenched it in slobber" I glared at Mrs. O' Leary and she just sat and stuck her tong out as she panted.
"Don't you have somewhere else to be Nico" I said and Nico shrugged
"No I've been out for longer than this" Nico said "Will doesn't expect me to get back for weeks at a time, and if he did then he'd find me somehow, and blast me with light until I am covered in enough soot to cover a football field" I chortled at his antiques, and it was probably true too though.
"Well I am not bringing you with me" I said and I put a hand on Mrs. O' Leary and I opened a shadow under the two of us, making Nico look through for a second in annoyance before it closed and I reappeared in the Avengers Tower with Mrs. O' Leary smacking her lips because of something. I looked around and saw Steve cooking steak, then I smelled it and I held myself and Mrs. O' Leary back as we both wanted to just tear apart the meat and devour it all.
"Hey Steve" I tried to say it the best I could without letting my hunger take over my actions and voice.
"Um. What's happening" he said and I could feel his gaze on me and Mrs. O' Leary as I held her back
"Oh nothing" I said "just the smell of meat is making us both go crazy" I said and he was silent for a while "just wolf instincts taking over. I'm going to go now" I pushed Mrs. O' Leary into a shadow and ironically, a live deer was right there when we both came out of the shadows. She didn't waste any time in killing it and feasting, and I held myself back and smelled the air for my pack, and mate.
"Come on girl" I said once she was done "lets go meet up with the others" she licked her lips and yipped in agreement, and once we were a mile from their camp, she started to act different...protectively.
What is that smell she said werewolves, a lot of them too she went in-front of me as if she were trying to guard me from something as she looked around
"Yes there are other werewolves nearby, they are my pack" I said and she looked at me curiously "I had to change the hunt into werewolves to accommodate for the changes that my mate, Artemis needed. Once we entered the camp, the girls were all over me and Mrs. O' Leary. The smaller ones were climbing all over her, while the experienced ones hugged me tightly.
Thanks for reading and I'll try to have another chapter out soon, plus I need a new villain and a plot twist of some sort:
The Hunt gets captured
Percy gets captured again
Chaos/Order appears with resurrected fighters (Luke, Zoe, Bianca, etc)
Other
