《The Son Of Artemis book 3》Chapter 6:
Advertisement
We walked out onto the shore and were greeted by Perseus and Chiron, and I began wondering where Clarisse was as she would usually greet me upon entry into camp.
"Hey Chiron, I brought the campers back...and my sister's companions are here for a visit have fun" Apollo said closing the door to the sun chariot bus and taking off quickly as the naiads started throwing their ruined baskets at him.
Perseus, however, sighed "why do the scary women have to be here Chiron. I thought they told you that they wouldn't come back for a stay for years"
"that's because our lady request us to be here boy" Zoë said, with a hateful glare to Perseus which I understood why. I mean Heracles isn't only his half brother but also his great grandson.
Thalia started suppressing her laughter at Perseus as he went behind Chiron to hide, while covering his reproductive organs.
"it's good to see you again Hunters" Chiron stated, "I trust you know where your cabin is"
"Yes we do. We will be settling in if we are needed" Zoë stated and she took the hunters off to mom's cabin.
"And where will you be staying Percy"
"with my sisters, duh" I said starting to walk off after them, "I thought you were suppose to be smart mr. tail curlers".
As soon as Percy finished his sentence I burst out laughing recalling the memory of when I first technically met Chiron coming out of his room with curlers in his tail. Sadly though the others, barring my semi-revived half-brother, didn't get it.
"What's so funny babe" Peter tried
I immediately sent an electrified punched his way."One never call me babe again. Two we aren't dating. Three if it wouldn't start war between our fathers I would kill you sea scum" I stated angrily, as I further punched him into the lake. He splashed me in retaliation, but I sent a lightning bolt at him knocking him out...while he was in the water. Stupid weak sea scum.
I breathed in and out like Annie taught me to do to control my anger so I wouldn't kill any stupid mortals at school, as we both kinda sorta love Percy, and hate other males.
As I let out my last breath, I turned to the Di Angelo children, "I'm sorry you had to see that. Anyways, I suppose formal introduction are in order, that floating body is Peter the camp idiot, and son of poseidon if you already didn't know. I'm Thalia, daughter of Zeus. And the boy who went off with the hunters is Percy. He's Artemis's adopted son" I explained as I'm not sure if anyone introduced themselves.

"Thanks Thalia, but Percy introduced himself to me along with Zoë" Bianca said
"Oh. and you didn't accept" I questioned
"Correct, but Percy talked me out of it...at least for now. Though zoë did put up a compelling argument" she responded
"What are you two talking about" Little Nico asked innocently
Bianca turned and looked down at Nico, a little sadly I might add, "Nico, I...I was offered a position with the hunt. I didn't accept yet but it is still open for me to accept" she explained to him
Nico looked scared, like he might lose his sister, and I imagine this is probably how Annabeth would have looked like if I decided to join back then. "Yo...yo...you aren't going to leave me right" nico asked with some tears in his eyes.
"No not yet" Bianca said, "I want to make sure you have friends here first before I make a final decision"
After that Nico ran in the direction Percy and the hunters went off in, and I just realized that Bianca and I were the only ones left. I held her back from going after him. "You want him to make friends right" I asked and she nodded, "Well let's follow at a distance. You know make sure he doesn't wander to far" I said, and Bianca seemed to get what I was telling her.
So we went off to follow him to see that, he was yelling at the hunters for trying to take his sister away from him, which seemed to confuse many of them, except Zoë who was holding back a few of the more angry hunters for him questioning them and their lady.
Percy, however, mediated this and took Nico away from his sisters and started giving him a tour of camp, where Bianca and I semi-followed, me giving her a tour though.
After walking around and watching Percy introduce Nico to other campers, Bianca seemed to have some of her nerves settled, especially when Silena went off on how cute and adorable Nico is, which caused Nico to look glum, but Selena just cooed at him more.
"Who's that" Bianca asked quietly
"That's Silena. She's a daughter of Aphrodite. And the boy with her is Charlie, son of Hephaestus and her boyfriend" I explained.
"and he has no problem with her cooing over my brother" she asked
"Not likely. He understands she is her mother's daughter and knows that she really only sees him as a little brother or something similar, considering they are like 18. Also, Silena tends to like being an older sister to the new campers. Makes them feel more welcomed she says" I answered

"Oh. Will"
"Yes she likely would, but she may be salty if you join them. She and the hunters don't necessarily see eye to eye, and she and Zoë have some serious beef. Though Percy and her are friends" I explained knowing her question involving her brother. "However, I wouldn't join yet. At least become friends with her first, before asking her to be a more primary role in your brother's upbringing"
"Ok" she mumbled, and after Percy and Nico left them I introduced Bianca to them.
"OH My Mother, Your little brother is so cute" Silena exclaimed, a little to loud and high pitched for my liking.
"Silena you're letting your Aphrodite show" Beckendorf complained
"I can't help it she's my mother, and you know that" Silena said, like she was also cursing her mother, "besides, tell me how it's not true"
Beckendorf and I wisely stayed quiet, as Silena has her way with words to convince you otherwise.
"Thanks for talking to my brother, he tends to have trouble making friends" Bianca stated
"No problem. Anyways Beck has to get to the forge to teach Tyson some forging tricks. I can take the tour over if you would like me too Thalia" Silena offered.
I just decided to tag along for the remainder of the tour, before Silena figured out that Bianca should go watch the orientation film.
"NO" Percy and I shouted...weird when did he get here
"Why what's the orientation film" Nico asked
"The worst thing my uncle has ever done" Percy stated
"hey, it's...ok it's actually a pretty terrible film, but it still introduces camp and explains a lot of things" Silena argued
"Give Thalia or myself two hours and we would do a better job than the film" Percy argued back
"Let them watch it" Silena said, and I all of the sudden had a sudden urge to go watch it with them
"You honestly think my mother didn't prepare my mind against a tongue such as yours Silena. Come on we're friends and you've seen how terrible the film is" Percy countered
"Ughh fine you win, just don't expect me to be nice to you in CTF later" Silena said walking off
"CTF" Nico asked
"Capture the flag but with weapons" I explained, and Bianca gave Nico a look that said no.
"Ohhh can we introduce them to the old sot" I asked Percy
"D" He questioned
"yeah him" I said
"who's that" Bianca asked
"The wine god" Percy and I responded at the same time as we took them up to the big house.
"Hey OLD SOT YOU AWAKE IN THERE" I yelled
Dionysius walked out sleepily, "Really Thalia, I told you not to call me that"
Nico started bouncing up and down, "You're the wine dude right. Do you really have 500 attack points"
Dionysius just looked at him confusedly, "Wine dude?! I'm Dionysius, don't call me that again dammit, and don't call me what my sister and nephew like to call me either. Just call me Mr. D. And what do you mean 500 attack points"
"He means mythomagic sir. It's a game he likes" Bianca answered, much more respectfully than Percy or I would. I mean we had appearances to keep after all
"Oh I don't know. Anyway is it a strong card" he asked
"Nah it's actually the weakest god card there is" Nico said nonchalantly, "but I like it. It's a cool card"
Dionysius though did a spit take, "WEAKEST GOD CARD, WHO CREATED THIS GAME? I'LL SHOW THEM WEAK"
Percy and I took Bianca and Nico and fled, before he started complaining even more. We'll just let Chiron deal with him.
"I don't see what the problem is" Nico stated
"You insulted a god little brother" Bianca said
"How"
"Called him the weakest god card in the game"
"So what. It's true, but I like his card"
"Yeah but the gods don't like being called weak. The only reason the hunters and I get away easily with insulting Apollo is because Artemis made it clear she wouldn't protect him from us and we hospitalized him for a week, once. And Apollo is trying to make amends with his sister for millennia of neglect and abuse" Percy explained
"Oh. What's next? Do we get weapons, now" Nico asked
"Yeah sure let's go the weapons shed" I stated, thought Bianca was looking at Nico as if saying no you don't get a weapon yet.
