Moon and Wind

{Day 1}
Balder ran forward, tearing Artemis as gently as he could from Apollon's grip while glaring at him.

"Why the hell did you take him away?!" He hissed, holding Artemis face into his chest, oblivious to Artemis blushing like a new bride.

Apollon narrowed his eyes a fraction, taking a step forward while Pegasus whinnied in irritation of the Norse god.

"He shouldn't be hanging out with a barbarian." Apollon snapped, grabbing Artemis by the arm and ripping him from Balder's grip.

"And he's a Greek to start with!" Apollon added as Artemis yelped, being torn away from Balder's form and spun around into Apollon's eyes made him a bit dizzy.

"U-uh, guys?" He asked softly, looking up at Apollon before to Balder who were scowling heavily at each other.

Artemis sighed, seeing that there was little to no way of stopping their anger, he stepped away, licking his tongue a few times until Pegasus clopped over to him, allowing him to get on.

"Until you two sort your asses out, I'm taking Pegasus on a trip around the garden!" He called, seeing Apollon start to speak before Pegasus jumped up, taking off into the air faster than Apollon could speak, Atremis bending the wind so they would go faster.

"To the ocean!" He commanded Pegasus who whinneied happily at the idea, speeding up as the outline of the blue sea came to Artemis's eyes, making him grin happily.

He loved the ocean so much! When he was a human, he used to play with his older sisters, splashing around and having fun.

The thought of them made his eyes sting, he rubbed them a little, taking a deep breath.

He couldn't do anything about it, so he might as well enjoy whatever came his way.

He loved this place so far, it would be a shame if he had to complain about it so much when there was so many good things about it!

He looked up at the sky as it began to darken a bit, the colors of blue, red, black, and other unnamable colors coated the sky, making him smile a bit.

He loved the way the sky looked, especially with the large moon that hovered over their heads, shining brightly and reflecting onto the still waves of the ocean.

"It's so beautiful..." Artemis mused, slipping off of Pegasus's back and letting the large horse do what he wanted while he walked forward, sitting gently on a dock, staring up at the sky with wide eyes.

"It's shattered..." A soft voice came from behind him, making Artemis jump.

"W-what?! Who are you?!" He squeaked as he turned, seeing another god standing not to far away on the dock, his amber eyes practically glowing as he looked from Artemis and then to the water, a calm frown on his face.

"My name...? Tsukkito." He murmured, taking a few steps forward, his long kimono swishing in the gentle wind as he approached.

"May I sit with you?" He asked softly, smiling faintly when Artemis nodded, scooting over so that he could sit as well.

"My name is Artemis." Artemis said, smiling softly at Tsukito who flushed a brilliant red, looking away sharply.

"The moon looks imperfect." Tsukito muttered, his eyes fixating on the ocean where the soft ripples made the reflection of the moon waver.

Artemis looked with him before pointing up at the sky.

"Just keep your head up, the moon is perfect here." He said softly, smiling a little at Tsukito who flushed brighter.

"T-thank you." He muttered, sneaking a glance of the beautiful god.

He was already in love, wasn't he?
