Chapter Fourteen
Three years had gone by since that last meeting in which Apollo was killed or killed himself it was up to debate or not to be truthful not many cared. Artemis did not cry for she did not care. Before anyone judges her harshly consider this. The brother she cared about died many and I mean many years ago. He died before she became the maiden goddess of the moon. Some argued his death was a part of her becoming a maiden goddess but that is beside the point.
Nico and Thalia were still going strong. In fact Nico a few weeks ago asked for permission to ask to marry her. Artemis doubled her threat in response. Percy did the same thing and Nico asked Thalia to marry him and she said yes. Hades was so happy that he started to dance a gig. It was so bad that Nico used it as a punishment.
Medusa had gained more followers she now had 12 and they had hunted down and killed about 7 rapists. All 7 died very painfully and the police around the world had no clues as to what happened or how or why. Medusa had finally killed Poseidon and Zeus. Jackie had given birth to a son that she raised. If her son was good and not like his father then Artemis would hand over the power to him when he was old enough. The son was named Bob. (Yes I went there)
Persephone had surprised Hades. She had surprised everyone to be honest. It was during a meeting a few weeks after Apollo's death. Percy called her up. He told her that an answer was needed either way.
Flashback
Hades had just cleaned out his ears and then asked Persephone to repeat what she had said. To be truthfully everyone in the meeting had cleaned out there ears. Since everyone figured she would not give that answer.
"I wish to remain you wife. I do love you. Just no more affairs for if you do have one I will leave you."
Hades smiled and promised never to cheat on her and he never did.
End Flashback
Percy had changed his throne it was now a solid blue with and owl, a deer and a wolf on it. The wolf was red, the owl was white and the deer was green. His home the walls for the most part were all blue.
Scarlet since then had grown stronger and stronger she could not beat any of the gods but she was still very strong and powerful. At this point no mortal could beat her in combat. Scarlet had made her peace with Annabeth. The two had a spar and it was a good one. The first one it was a draw afterwards Annabeth won the next five but after Scarlet won and she had not lost yet. The count was Scarlet 75 Annabeth 5 draw 1.
Scarlet would not say she liked Annabeth but she respected the mortal since the mortal made her stronger since she had to use different tactics and skills on her blond foe for each battle. It was a fun battle for both no matter what. Annabeth had tired a few times to trick Scarlet into telling her who Percy was dating. Each time it went like this.
"I will not tell they want it kept secret. When they are ready to tell you they will. " Scarlet would say each and every time. Percy and Annabeth were friends once more the level of friendship they had was starting to come back. Percy was not willing to go that far yet since he figured he would lose her as a friend when she was told who he was dating. So he figured spare himself the pain.
Now speaking of who he was dating he was happy very happy with the relationships. Each day he fell more and more in love with Athena and Artemis. Each day they fell more in love with him as well. The love the three had for each other was amazing and wonderful. It was very strong.
Percy had gained many friends the most shocking one was Ares of all gods. If you told Percy after his first year at camp that Ares would be his best friend he would have thought you crazy now it was not so crazy. It was still crazy but not as much.
Tyson at first did not wish to speak to Percy. He did not like that Percy had killed their father. However he realized that Percy was there for him since they met and Percy never did anything without reason.
Grover a few days afterwards returned from his adventures and started to chat with Percy. He did not find it odd that his best friend had two girlfriends. He was a little envious that Percy was with Artemis but he was happy none the less. Scarlet really liked him and took to calling him Uncle Grover. Grover taught Scarlet more about the wild and nature and Scarlet did the same but with her view on nature.
Percy had not been slacking when it came to training. He had fully mastered his powers over the water and earthquakes also ice. He had 50 percent mastery over his lighting and thunder powers. His skills with the sword were second to none. He had mastered the trident, the spear and the hunting knives. He was now working on mastering the bow.
Percy right now was on a group date with Athena and Artemis. The three were in there favorite picnic spot the one they had their first group date. Artemis and Athena were dressed in casual skirts and shirts. Percy was in casual pants. Percy had not made love to either goddess yet. Neither of the three was ready yet.
To Percy the best part was holding his girlfriends. Every night they would sleep in the same bed just sleep. Kissing was prefect so rushing was not needed. However he knew he loved both and knew he could not live without both so he needed to talk to a few others first but he knew the time was coming. (Be patient my friends all will be known soon.)
Right now Artemis and Athena were resting their heads on his chest. Artemis spoke.
"I never got the chance to say this I keep forgetting but thank you both you Percy for allowing me to make my hunters into my daughters and thank you Athena for pleading for me."
"Arty I never plead with Percy I just told him what you might ask. " Athena said.
"So Percy you just agreed but why I never asked." Artemis said.
"I wanted to see you happy. You were one of my allies and friends and I saw no reason why it should not have been done so that is why. Plus I liked seeing you smile." With that Artemis tackled him and kissed him this started a heavy make out session. Afterwards Athena did the same thing. The three rested and talked after that and went to do stuff they would meet at home later. The three had taken to living together.
Percy went to pick up Scarlet who was playing with Lilly once more. Lilly and Scarlet had become the best friends. Both girls were about 10 years old now in human terms. Another part of the Hunters becoming Artemis's daughter is that they can grow however they will stop growing at age 18. Scarlet loved spending time with Lilly and Lilly felt the same way.
Scarlet and Percy teleported to the underworld to pick up some stuff that Hades had made. Hades had many talents one of them being a mastery in the art of gem making. So Percy asked for help in making some rings four rings to be exact. Now anyone who has read romance stories before knows what Percy is thinking and planning on doing and you would be correct.
You see two of the rings were engagement rings and two were wedding rings. He was unsure why he had two sets made. He loved both Artemis and Athena but he still felt wrong marrying two women. He was going to talk to his mom hopefully she could give him some good advice or any advice at all. At this point he was not picky.
He was going to talk to both his mothers since both were very wise also both would be very upset if he did not talk to them. Upsetting the former queen of the ocean was not a good idea. Upsetting his mother was an even worse idea.
Upon getting to the Under World Scarlet tackles her grandmother.
"How is my favorite and only grandchild? By the way Percy when will you give me more grandchildren?" Sally asked which caused Percy to blush heavily.
"Well mom I was going to ask for your advice. I love both Artemis and Athena but I don't like the idea of two wives. What do I do?" He asked his mom.
"Marry them and give me grandkids." Sally said with a very serious face. It caused Percy to sweet drop.
"All joking aside I am serious marry them both and you will be happy my son. I think you will be a fool if you do otherwise. Now go and talk to Amphitrite and maybe Aphrodite. If you do choose to marry both Artemis and Athena I would like to meet them finally. If you only pick one I want to meet her." Sally told her son. So after a hug the father and daughter teleported to the beach,
Scarlet tackled Amphitrite and she gave the same advice that Sally gave. Percy watched his mom go home and let his daughter play. Lilly happened to be nearby and the two girls started to play.
"It is so nice to see young love is it not?" Percy knew it was Aphrodite speaking.
"It is I only hope Lilly does not break Scarlet's heart." Percy said
"She will not." Aphrodite said.
"What makes you so sure?" He asked point blank.
"I hate this metaphor but it works the best. Think of love as a flower. Scarlet's is full bloomed. Lilly's hers is a flower that is not ready to bloom yet but is close. It will open up. Scarlet is older in mind so she is ready for a mate. Lilly is not yet." The goddess of love said.
"So she will be my daughter in law?" He asked which got him a nod in return.
"So I am sure you do not want my advice but I think you should tell them the truth and ask them to marry you." Aphrodite said.
Percy smiled at the goddess of love.
"Actually my friend I am glad you said that for now I have a straight answer something I did not have before. I think I will do just that. I am going to set up a romantic picnic and ask then. It is simple but what is loved most by Athena and Artemis." Percy said which only caused Aphrodite to smile.
"You are not like the others Percy you will never betray Artemis and Athena it is just not you. You are king and wonderful and I wish my daughters had mange to win your heart. I look forward to that day." Afterwards Aphrodite flashed home. Percy now had his answer he just needed to do one more thing.
"Scarlet I am sure you have figured out what I have been debating on this day. What are your thoughts?"
Scarlet looked up at him with a huge smile before she spoke.
"I think it will be wonderful daddy." She then started to cry and they were not tears of joy. Percy knew they were tears of sadness.
"It is seeing you like this in love and knowing Lilly will never feel the same way I do that hurts me." She said.
"Honey she cares about you and I suspect loves you. She only wants to spend time with you. Right now she is not ready to fall in love give her a few more years." Percy told his distraught daughter.
"Daddy I am a wolf she is a human it will not work out." Scarlet said still very upset.
"Scarlet I am dating two of the virgin goddess and going to ask them to marry me. It will work out for you. Give her until she turns 18 she will return your love." Percy said. Scarlet felt her dad was right so she accepted the statement and would wait.
The two go home to get ready for dinner. Percy had become the one to cook since he was the best at it. Athena burnt water once and nearly burnt down Olympus. Artemis was just as bad. So it was agreed that Percy would cook. Percy was thinking how best to ask the question. In a couple of days was the three year anniversary. He knew that he wanted to ask then.
Once his girlfriends got home he had a plan. He invited them on a date for their anniversary. Since both goddesses knew Percy by now they knew he was planning something. They did not know what but they knew they would like it.
On their first year anniversary he recreated the first date right down to every detail. On their second year anniversary he put together a scrap book of both goddesses' best moments throughout their lives. It took him a lot of work but well worth it. The smiles made it worth all the time he spent. So they knew something big was happening.
