《The other Swan》chapter 5

They thought the fighting was over but they weren't prepared to lose the leaders of their camp. Percy and Allison were taken from camp one night 9 months after their fight in Manhattan. By that time Allison and Isaac had broken up due to having a more brother and sister vibe about them and they were great friend's like her and Scott.
They were taken in the middle of the night and not to be seen for 6 of those months. Allison and Percy had meanwhile were awoken by the goddess Lupa and trained to become Romans.
The whole this turned out to be weird as they met the Roman demigods whilst Jason met the Greek demigods at camp half-blood and they each went on their own quests. Jason, Piper, and Leo went to free the goddess Hera and Percy, Frank, Allison, and Hazel went to free Thanatos from chains.
It took them all 2 weeks to complete their quests before they joined together along with Annabeth and Lydia to become the 9 demigods who would answer the call.
They spent a lot of time on the Argo 2 and trying to get to Athens to destroy Gaia before she could even rise.
It didn't work and Lydia, Allison, Percy, and Annabeth ended up falling into Tartarus with each other.
They were each tortured in their own ways. Annabeth was tortured by seeing Percy tortured and then Allison was tortured with weapons but Lydia was tortured by having to see her best friend take all the torture for the both of them which greatly upset Lydia but Allison said that she wouldn't let these vile monsters mess up her best friend's pretty face.
It felt like twenty years in Tartarus but in reality it was only two weeks. They got out with the help of Bob the giant and Dedalus helped as well.
They went to destroy Gaia and they did but at a price.
Allison at the end of the battle after helping to slay Gaia fired her last arrow at a monster before being slayed herself.

Lydia with her banshee powers that she had gained from her paternal father's side sensed this and panic grew in her as this death felt different from all the others. This death physically hurt her to scream meaning she was close to this person.
Lydia screamed her banshee scream and Artemis froze before turning to her daughter.
Tears flowing down her face as she watched her daughter say her last words and her hand drop. Lydia came running and dropped to her knees at the sight of her best friend lying there dead.
Artemis ran to her child tears rolling down her face as she gathered her daughter in her arms. She rocked back and forth as the moon shown. The full moon was out tonight and quickly Artemis used all her power to bring her daughter back.
Her soul was just leaving her body and by doing this she knew her daughter would become immortal but she didn't care.
"Artemis!" Zeus warned knowing what his daughter was doing when he saw her hands glow silver. Apollo held his father back "this is her only child father let her have this." Zeus sighed but nodded.
Allison's eyes snapped open burning a bright amber before going to a blood red and fading back to their original silver before a gasp left her throat.
Lydia launched herself at Allison and held on for dear life as did Artemis. Allison was immortal now. Every god or goddess could feel the raw power inside of her.
She was strong just like her mother. Now she'd forever be 15 almost 16 years old.
She looked older than what she was more mature in a sense. She looked to be about 17 or even 18 but she was younger than what she looked.
"Mom?" Allison asked. The area around her mouth still had dried blood on it. "My little moon. I'm so sorry. I couldn't lose you." Artemis said. Allison knew she wasn't human anymore but that's okay. She knew she was dead before as well.
She knew the second that sword went through her she would die. She was just glad to spend more time with everyone. She didn't want to just be another story that people told. She wanted to tell her own story.

"Alright let's gather at Olympus to discuss rewards." Zeus then flashed away dramatically as did the other gods just not as dramatic.
Each god or goddess grabbed their kid or kids from the prophecy of 9 before flashing away. Zeus had grabbed Thalia and Jason, Hades grabbed Nico who helped fight even if he wasn't apart of the prophecy and Hazel, Apollo didn't have a demigod to grab surprisingly, Hephaestus grabbed Leo who was going to sacrifice himself but Allison did it before he could, Aphrodite grabbed Piper and Lydia, Poseidon grabbed Percy, Ares grabbed Frank, Athena grabbed Annabeth, and finally Artemis grabbed Allison.
When they flashed to the throne room the demigods sat by their parent or patron respectively. "Jason my son what is it you wish?" Jupiter who is the Roman form of Zeus asked? "I wish to make temples for all gods out there if you give me permission." Jason said.
The gods nodded. "Wish granted." Jason smiled. Piper stood up "Piper my daughter what is it you wish?" Aphrodite asked her daughter. "I wish you'd stay out of my love life." Piper said. Aphrodite pouted "wish granted." She said. "Lydia my other daughter what is it you wish?" Aphrodite asked her younger daughter.
Before Lydia could answer Zeus cleared his throat "I would allow you to become immortal to stay with your best friend if you'd like." Lydia smiled and nodded. After a painful process Lydia became immortal and just like Allison all her features were enhanced.
Percy decided to wish to be left alone unless he was needed. Annabeth became the official Architect of Olympus. Frank and Hazel had their curses removed, Nico became a minor god and was declared the heir of Hades. Thalia also became a minor god of the hunt. Leo asked for Calypso to be released. When she was she kissed Leo.
When it was Allison's turn she didn't ask for godhood. She asked for something simple "I wish for the camps to be united. For the gods to be able to visit their kids like mom visited me. So that nothing like Luke ever happens again. I also want a portal between the two camps." The gods stared shocked at the daughter of Artemis.
The gods glowed as the dates excepted this wish. The gods laughed excitedly. "Wish granted." Apollo said.
Allison smiled. Then she along with the other nine of the prophecy went to the tattoo shop and got a matching tattoo. Which was symbols of all the main gods or goddesses.
They also got one for Hestia.
Allison also got another Tattoo. She died and so she was going to get a tattoo to represent a fallen hero. Actually all of the nine plus Nico and Thalia got the tattoo for their fallen friend turned immortal.
It says "We protect those who can't protect themselves" in Latin.
When all was said and done the nine split ways. Thalia and Nico had left after getting the tattoo for Allison. Thalia went back to the Hunters and Nico went to the underworld.
Frank and Hazel left to camp Jupiter, Piper and Jason went to start on the temples for the gods and goddesses. Percy and Annabeth talked about completing high school before going to New Rome for college so they left to camp half-blood.
Leo and Calypso went to start a mechanic garage. That only left Allison and Lydia. Since they were both immortal monsters wouldn't come after them since they had a powerful aura.
"Where do you want to go?" Lydia asked her best friend. "Do you lie rain?" Allison asked. "Oh I love rain. It makes for romantic scenes in movies."
"Then how about my hometown where it rains 75% of the time?" Allison asks his best friend. Lydia grins. "Sure." Lydia agrees.
