"Ah, that's one way to greet good morning, I suppose." I said, rubbing my nose.
I glanced over at Mae."What's up with her?"
She shrugged.
I wrinkled my nose."You seriously have to do that right in front of everyone? Yuck." I turned, before I barfed.
"AHHHH!!!" I scream at the dead deer and rabbit. "You...You...He...Just...Dead." I stuttered a the male deer limp and being skinned.
"Whats wrong?" the girl asked me.
"You killed him. I just talked to him, and now he's... dead." I stuttered. I knew that predators needed prey to live, but I just had a conversation with him.
"Whats wrong?" the girl asked me.
"You killed him. I just talked to him, and now he's... dead." I stuttered. I knew that predators needed prey to live, but I just had a conversation with him.
I jerked my head around."ALICE!" I shrieked.
"What?"
"THAT DEER is half skinned! It won't stand a chance!"
I just stared at her in amazement, she had just brought a creature from the dead. Whoa...
"Wait a second... You have really powerful abilities, and is great with the bow and air. You call us mortals, as if you are not. Then you talk to me all weird this morning like you are from a long time ago. Who are you really?"
"Bob? How could she be Bob?" I mutter to myself, and walk towards the underbrush. "Um... I just wanna talk to you, lady." I call after her.
"What the-" I say, standing up.I ran after Mae and that Alice girl.
"Hello????"
"Wait up!" I call, but she is already way ahead of me. The vines grow around me, and engulf my body. Then, emerging from the soil, right in front of her. "Do you want to explain or what?"
"Bob. You have got to be kidding me."
"Artemis, what brings you here?" I ask the goddess.
"Brother named Barbra? Your a terrible fibber." I shook my head and smiled. "Artemis, whats the matter on Olympus right now?"
"Call who?" I ask, and start walking closer her.
"Yeah, umm... If you would just talk to me and explain what going on, that would be great."
"What kind of deal?" I look suspiciously between Apollo and Artemis, wondering what they had in store.
"Who sent you here? I know gods and goddesses don't just go around offering things without a huge catch. I'm not a total idiot."
I slap my forehead. "Siblings." I mutter, then walk over to the two squirreling Olympians. "Are you going to tell me or not!" I scream at the two.
"What is this something?" I sit down on a stump and wait in front of the twins.
Suddenly, I crash through the undergrowth and into the clearing."Woah, what happened to Alice? And who's that guy?"
"Ruby, you missed a lot. This isn't Alice. Her name is Artemis. She is a goddess. This is her brother, Apollo. He is a god."
"Hi ya." Apollo smiles brilliantly at Ruby, and she blushes.
"Hi." Ruby smiles back.
"Anyway. They want to offer us a deal." I explain. Ruby nods.
"Hi ya." Apollo smiles brilliantly at Ruby, and she blushes.
"Hi." Ruby smiles back.
"Anyway. They want to offer us a deal." I explain. Ruby nods.
"This is weirrrrrrrdddddddddddd" I said, leaning over to Mae.She waved her hand irritably, and listened in to hear what Artemis was saying.
"Well, we need to know why you want to help us." I purse my lips.
"You ask an enemy why they want your blood, don't you?"
"And thats Artemis for ya!" I exclaim, and face palm. "How do we know your not clones? You could be part of Hecate's army for all we know." I realize, and Ruby's eyes widen.
"Prove your loyalty to Olympus, and we'll bargain."
"Yeah. But your father wouldn't approve, would he?" I point to the lightning strike in the sky that had zapped as soon as I uttered the words.
"So prove yourself and we can move on." I smile at Artemis' scowl.
"ARTEMIS!! TURN HER BACK NOW!!" I scream at her, and she glares.
"OMIGOD!!" I scream, horrified."What did you do???"
"ZAYNAH!!!!" "What?" she tried her best to look innocent.
"Artemis is a goddess!"
"NOW see what you did Zaynah!" I turned on her, suddenly angry. "We don't even know the thingie they were gonna tell us! That was a goddess!"
"Ruby, calm down. Maybe it was for the best..."
"WHAT?!" she screams at me.
"Well, don't you think its weird for the great Olympian twins to come down and offer us a gift? Maybe they were the clones that your mother made. We don't know if they were foe or friends." Pacing, I nibble a leaf as my mind raced.
"WHAT?!" she screams at me.
"Well, don't you think its weird for the great Olympian twins to come down and offer us a gift? Maybe they were the clones that your mother made. We don't know if they were foe or friends." Pacing, I nibble a leaf as my mind raced.
"I suppo-" I was just about to agree reluctantly, when the two gods burst from the undergrowth again."My GOD!" I screamed. My nerves were on edge.
(Erm, guys? STOP ATTACKING EACH OTHER FOR GOSH SAKE!!!Alice, don't turn her into a rock. It is not polite.
Zaynah, you can't laugh at a goddess, and overpower her, it is literally against Rick Riordan rules. +looks stern+
An both of you? YOU ARE NOT ENEMIES. THERE IS NO NEED TO KEEP TRYING TO OVERPOWER THE OTHER. According to Mythologies and Rick Riordan, goddesses DO overpower everyone else, it is just a fact of life. So, Z, just grit your teeth and let us all start from the beginning again. WE ARE FRIENDS. +waves hands awesomely and charms everyone with the force+ FRIENNNNNNNNDSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS)
(Okay, okay. +Backs off with hands in the air*)
"Is she...is that a clone?" I whisper with sudden realization.
(AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH AWEESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE)"Woah!" I said, eyes wide. "Called it! Totally called it!"
Mae rolled her eyes and stepped in front of me. "Goddess, could YOU tell us what's going on?"
"NOW what's happening???" I ask with exasperation.
(who's already dead? What happened? OMIGOSH THIS IS SO CONFUSING!!!)
(Ok. I understand what going on. Kinda. It never said Apollo clone was destroyed... or was he a clone at all?)
(Ooooooooh. Ok. :-)
"Artemis... Real Artemis, what kind of gifts do you offer us, if we pay the price?"
"Artemis... Real Artemis, what kind of gifts do you offer us, if we pay the price?"
"Why do you wish to help us, besides being incredibley generous?" The riches looked temptingly beautiful, and I had trouble pulling my eyes away from them.
"We would gladly help you get revenge. But we wish for none of your treasure." I point at the riches. "But a simple deed and revenge will be full filled. Scout's honor." I put my hand over my heart.
"You accompany us on our quest." I smile right back at her. "You are immortal, after all. And with your hunters gone, you really have nothing better to do."
(I would, but I don't know how to answer Artemis' question.)
