Wait. I was a GOD.
(Now):
(Artemis POV)
The demigods might have been feeling happy but I felt ready to vomit. I felt my power draining away. Why did we have to take this potion in the first place? Now, instead of being in the wilderness which I loved, with my hunters, I had to stay at Camp Half-Blood surrounded by boys. And I wasn't too keen and having them stay at Camp Half-Blood. The last time wasn't so good…..
When all of the boys started whooping and jumping around, I stared disgustedly at them. They were boys of course but did they have not even an inch of self-respect?
I felt the sick feeling leaving my body which was a relief, but now I felt powerless and weak. I realized that I become taller which was strange. I looked the other gods and realized that they had all become younger. The demigods, on the other hand looked older, with the exception of Thalia, who looked the same.
Aunt Hestia flashed into the room and asked Hecate, "Transformation done?" Hecate nodded. Hestia smiled at her before transporting all of us to Olympus.
"Aunt Hestia?" I asked as soon as we were there. Hestia turned to look at me. "Why am I older? And why are the rest of gods younger? And why are the demigods older?" I asked. Hestia smiled and said, "Aside from you, the rest of the gods are younger because they won't fit in at camp if they're old. You look young so we made you look like a teenager so you'll fit in. And the demigods are gods so they can look like whatever they want."
I gritted my teeth. I had to be a teenager for a week? How much worse could it get?
"We have to get fake names?" cried Zeus. "Don't be silly, of course. You can't just say you're the Olympians to everyone. You can pick your own names, you know," Hestia comforted.
Apollo, who looked the same as he always did, went first, "Fred Weasley." We all stared at him. "What? I like the name Fred and Weasley goes with it. And Hermes can be George Weasley." I rolled my eyes and said "Apollo, Fred Weasley is from Harry Potter. You can't just copy that. He's a famous character." "Not as famous as me," Apollo pointed out. Hestia said, "Okay then, your name is Fred Weasley." Apollo stuck his tongue out at me.
"Hermes?" "My name will be….well, I guess George Weasley," he said. Hermes also didn't look much affected by the fact that he had to be a teen for week. He seemed so serious these days…It kind of worried me.
"Alea Ergane. They are two of the names that I go by," Athena said. Hestia nodded.
"Juliet Cullen. It's a nice name and it's from two of my favorite books," said Aphrodite. She seemed to be positively excited about being a demigod for a week. "You're naming yourself after (A/N: No offense to people who like Twilight and Romeo and Juliet) after sparkly vampires and a girl who killed herself?" I asked. Aphrodite looked offended and was about to say something when Hestia said, "No fighting, you two."
"My name will be Dylan Morgan," said Poseidon. "Morgan, isn't that the name of the witch in The Little Mermaid 2?" "Wasn't her name Morgana?" asked Ares. Poseidon wrinkled his nose and said, "I still can't believe Disney killed me and replaced me with my son."
"Alexander….," said Ares. "The great," suggested Hermes. "Rivera," suggested Apollo. Then he frowned. "Or maybe that was Alejandro," he said. "The poet?" asked Athena. "No, the Mexican official," said Apollo. Athena looked at him blankly for a while but shook her head. (A/N: Can any of you guess what I just referenced?) "Okay, you can decide your last name later, Ares. Zeus?"
"I refuse to give myself a mortal name," he said. Hades said, "I cannot believe I'm saying this but I agree with Zeus." "Well, you have to have a name. I'll choose it for you. Zeus, your name will be William Morgan," Zeus started to say something but shrank back at Hestia's glare. "And Hades, your name will be Aeron Morgan."
"We're going to be brothers?" asked Poseidon. Hestia nodded. Zeus and Hades didn't look happy with their names but they didn't say anything.
"Hephaestus?" "Wayne Smith," he said.
"Artemis?" "I'm not sure" I said. "What about Missy?" asked Hermes. "Missy?" I asked. "Yeah, it's a nickname for Artemis," said Hermes. Missy was a nice name but it was very girly. I sighed. "Missy it is. Missy…" I thought for a while. "Diane. Missy Diane," I decided.
Hestia smiled. "Well, now I'll transport you to Camp Half-Blood. Nobody but Argus and Chiron will know your true identity. Zeus, Poseidon and Hades, you three are brothers. Same with Apollo and Hermes. You will be claimed by your each of your symbols. Artemis, your hunters know who you are so you will be staying in your own cabin. Hera, you will stay in any of your siblings' cabins," she said and waved her hand again.
Hope that all of you like the nicknames. Sorry if characters are OOC.
Also, twilight/Romeo and Juliet fans, sorry for the whole sparkly vampires/girl who killed herself thing. I just don't think Artemis would like those stories.
Love
Meg.
