《Son of Artemis Book 4》Chapter 7
Advertisement
After Annabeth decided who gets to go on the quest Thalia, Annabeth and I split up and rush off to get the other three quest members, so we can start around lunch time or some time early tomorrow. It depends on how quick they can get ready.
I was sent to get Tyson and headed to the forges first, as he would most likely be there, or in the pavilion eating peanut butter. Lucky for me he was in the forge, and he was seemingly working on more intricate automatons, which would probably be used for security or training.
"Hey Tyson" I said, which caused him to look up from his work
"Hey brother" He replied
I sighed, "so you have herd" I said, and he nodded
"You aren't mad" I questioned
"Only at daddy" he replied in his childish way. Well he is still a child in cyclops terms he's only 10 at the most for his size of being just over 6 feet tall
"There's another quest" I told him
"Really what for" He asked excitedly
"a string that can navigate the labyrinth" I told him
"That crazy maze that that dead person made for the angry bull man" He asked
"Yeah that" I said
"Good luck then brother" He said
"Tyson, you've been chosen to come along" I said
"But I have more work to do. Weird grape guy said demigods need to be armed" Tyson explained
"Dionysius" I questioned, to which Tyson nodded.
I sighed, "This quest is more important Tyson" I explained, "There's an entrance to the labyrinth in camp, and if Kronos finds how to navigate the labyrinth, he will be able to bypass our defenses"
"That doesn't sound good" He said
"It's not"
"I'll go then. Test my creations, I can" He said happily as he finished the automaton he was working on, only for the automaton to fold up into the size of a playing card. "Collapsable automaton" He said
"Nice" I said, "is it lightweight" I asked, and he just tossed it at me.
"Don't know" he said, "Have super strength"
I caught the collapsed automaton surprised that it weight no more than a loaf of bread. "I would say it's lightweight. Good job on this Tyson. Anything else you created" I asked
He looked slightly embarrassed, but pulled out a watch, and clicked the side only for a shield to pop out with our adventures from last summer on it. "I designed it similar to your watch" he said, "For the scary blond girl, Annabeth"

"I'm sure she would appreciate it Tyson" I said, though I didn't tell him about the polished bronze shield Athena gave Annabeth nor that Annabeth has the Nemean lion skin still. But then again carrying around a watch certainly beats carrying a 20 pound shield that has no collapsable form. And the lion skin doesn't cover everything perfectly.
With that Tyson gathered up some of his other creations he thinks might be useful, and we left to reconvene with the others at the big house
So Annabeth decided on who she wants to bring and do to all of our history with Cyclops Percy was chosen to get Tyson as although Annabeth and I were accepting of the friendly Tyson, The cyclops thing still unsettled me a little. However, Annabeth told me to get Nico as I was closer to the Diangelo siblings than she was, so I asked the Stolls for where their cabin would be right now.
They were being difficult until the lightning came out. Then they were very compliant telling me they would be in the arena for sword practice. After that they promptly ran off in the direction of their cabin.
I went to the sword Arena, to see the new guy, five, training everyone. "YO NEEKS COME HERE" I shouted, to which Nico complained about being called Neeks, while slowly coming to me.
Bianca, wasn't far behind though, "He didn't do anything wrong" She defended
"Yeah yeah I'm not here for whatever wrong my little cuz here could have done. He's going on a quest" I replied, to which Nico started looking very happy at that. Either from getting away from his overbearing sister or for being able to do the natural demigod thing and yell YOLO while doing something incredibly dangerous. Though I doubt Annabeth will allow the second one.
"NO he's not. He's eleven" Bianca said
"Perfect. He ready to start. Percy killed his first monster at 4. Then again he lived with the hunt all of his life." I said, "Then there's Tyson who is no older than ten going on his second quest now" I added
"And Nico didn't live with hunt, nor is he a super strong cyclopes. He is staying here to train" Bianca said firmly
"Yeah here's the problem with that cuz. You see we need a son of Hades, not a daughter or child of Hades, otherwise we would have taken you. But since we need your father's son according to the prophecy, of which you can send all complaints to Apollo for, we need Nico" I said in explanation

Bianca looked troubled, "What's his mailing address" she asked, "and my father's for that matter"
"alright Apollo's is 350 5th ave, 600th floor, New York City, NY, 10118. Yes that's the address for the Empire State Building and you have to send it via hermes express, ask Chiron how. As for your father I don't know. Sorry" Bianca just let out a frustrated sigh and stormed off to the archery range since Chiron was supposed to be there teaching archery right now.
"Does that mean I get to go" Nico asked excitedly.
"I dunno but let's get you packed and ready before she finds out you are missing" I said
"Yes! You're the most awesomest cuz ever" He said running off to the Hermes cabin.
'You hear that, Apollo, I am the most awesomest, not you' I prayed to him and Artemis just to get on his nerves.
All the sudden there was a silver flash in front of me and Artemis appeared laughing, once the light died down, which I had closed my eyes for. "Apollo fainted" she said in between her laughter. "He's having an existential crisis" She continued, "Oh whoever told you that is going to get bugged by him so much" she said finishing her laughter.
"Good luck with your quest, sis. And tell your lovers I said hi, and wish them luck as well" She said flashing away before I could recover from my blush and respond.
I sent Percy off to collect Tyson and Thalia off for Nico, as they had better relationships with them than I did. So that meant I was off to go get Grover, who has been summoned by the council of Cloven elders for the past 2 weeks. I feel sorry for him. He's a good friend, even though we haven't talked as often as we use to.
I hiked my way out to the where they meet only to find Grover getting yelled at by the council members. I decided to intervene despite not having any right to.
"Hey I need grover" I stated simply.
"The matter can wait girl" Silenus stated rather violently
"REALLY YOU'VE BEEN SCOLDING HIM FOR TWO WEEKS NOT ALLOWING ANYONE BUT CHIRON AND NATURE SPIRITS BACK HERE" I yelled losing my cool at the council of Cloven Idiots, "IF HE HASN'T GOTTEN WHATEVER MESSAGE YOU HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CONVEY BY NOW I AM CERTAIN HE WON'T EVER GET THAT MESSAGE"
I took a deep breath in to calm myself, "Now if you will excuse us I have a quest into the Labyrinth and grover is coming along, end of story" I said
"Tell us why" Lenus said
"Because he's the bravest satyr out of all you, found all the big three children barring the one adopted and raised by lady Artemis herself, he will be the one to find the lost one in the prophecy I received, which I will not share with you" I said grabbing Grover and dragging him away, though his girlfriend Juniper didn't look to happy at me stealing him at the moment and chased after us.
"You have one more week" Silenus yelled out after us.
Once we were significantly far enough away I let go of Grover's arm and let him walk on his own. " What do you mean labyrinth" Grover asked
"we have a lead on Pan" I responded, and he seemed overly happy, until he remember the labyrinth part.
"No you aren't going" Juniper said
"But Pan" Grover stated, "we need to find him"
"I don't want you going down there. It's not safe and you know it" she argued with him
"Juniper," I stated, " It's our best chance at finding Pan, and Grover is the best one that will be able to sense him if he is down there, as he sensed him before during the quest this winter" I explained
"FINE" She exasperated, " He can go just know I won't be happy about it until he's back"
"OK. We'll bring him back in one piece" I said
"Good" she said and walked off back to her tree.
"Should I be worried" Grover asked
"Only if you don't say bye before we leave" I said, "and that you'll be back as soon as possible" I added on. Before leading him to the big house where we are to meet our other quest members.
