《The Son Of Artemis book 3》Chapter 8:
Advertisement
There was a slight problem with getting the mummy back to the attic, as most of the non-injured campers were either irresponsible or newbies, but the task wound up being set up Grover and the DiAngelo siblings, mainly because Bianca was responsible, as the rest of us had to take all the injured campers to the infirmary.
Once that was done, the cabin leaders were ordered to the big house, and I went since I was technically in charge of mom's cabin, but Zoë was in charge of the hunt so she went as well. Which as you can imagine caused us to fight.
"I'm in charge of the cabin" I argued pulling the chair away from zoë
"Well milady left me in charge of the hunt" Zoë argued back pulling the chair towards her.
"Both of you stop" Dionysius ordered and we both glared at him before agreeing to steal his seat. Which we pulled right out from underneath him when he was sitting on it. "I believe our problem is solved perseus" Zoë said sitting in the stolen seat.
Dionysius glared at us before summoning a seat for himself, again, and sitting on that. Around the table however, was Zoë, Silena, Beckendorf, the stoll brothers(who somehow made it out capture the flag unscathed), my sister Phoebe(apparently all the present Ares campers were injured so she was the only child of Ares available in camp to attend), mi cousin Lee Fletcher, Malcolm, Thalia, Grover, Perseus, Dionysus and Chiron.
"Milady is in need of us. The hunters will be departing immediately chiron" Zoë said as the meeting was called to order
"It seems you are forgetting something zoë" Thalia taunted lightly, "only 5 are to go and there are more than 5 hunters. plus hunters and campers combined prevail. Plus we need to find out who the forgotten hesperide is and the brother yet to reveal his hand"

I shared a look with Zoë as we knew that the prophecy referred to both of us. "Thou already knows both of them"
"Really then who are they" Silena asked
"Myself and Percy" Zoë responded, which shocked many of the campers, "Though it is not time for my story to be told"
The campers still seemed shocked about it, "Well we already know two questers, that just remains the three" Chiron stated bringing everyone out of his shock.
"Phoebe, Atlanta, and Hunter shall be the last three chiron" zoë stated monotonously
"Campers and hunters combine prevail Zoë. I'm sure you know not to circumvent prophecy as Percy does" Thalia stated looking mad.
"Three and two" Lee suggested, "Three hunters and two campers"
"I don't know what if trying to work together is what brings the lost of one in the land without rain, nevertheless one almost dying only to be saved by Percy" Dionysius stated flipping through a wine magazine.
"Who's side are you on Mr.d" Chiron asked, who just got a shrug in response.
"So three and two it is" chiron stated, and looked around the table.
"Don't look at me. I'm not going anywhere with the hunt" Silena said
Zoe mocked gasped, "a child of aphrodite who doesn't wish to be looked at. What would thy mother say"
Silena stood up angrily to leave, but was held onto by the stolls. "Enough" Beckendorf stated clearly. He's a man of a few words when it comes to non forge related things, but when he says something, regardless, he means it, "We should start with the hunters who shall be going"
Zoë just glared at Beckendorf, so I had to speak, "It shall be Zoë, Phoebe and myself. Since technically I'm classified as one of the hunters at the moment". Which only cause Zoë and Phoebe to glare at me as I think they wanted me taking one of the campers spots.

"Ohhh I'll go. Anything for Lady Artemis" Grover stated, jumping out of his chair.
"we don't" Zoë started but I cut her off.
"Most of the other campers are either too inexperienced for a quest of this magnitude, or like in the case of Silena hold a personal grudge. The only other person for this quest is Thalia, as I know you refuse to travel with males" I said, and Zoë just glared at me.
"Well Thalia what do you say" Perseus said
"Fine I'll go" Thalia stated
"Well it is decided, Percy, Zoë, Phoebe, Thalia, and Grover shall leave after breakfast tomorrow" Perseus declared dismissing the meeting.
I walked back to mom's cabin, with my sisters, and us three agreed on one thing, mom needs to be at the winter solstice meeting, or the gods will be stuck once again in gridlock over the rise of Kronos.
