Hi, I'm back with a new one! Okay, you guys will realize, I really like putting little kids in my stories. I have no idea why.

Thalia Grace was at camp, in Zeus's cabin. Her huntresses were waiting for her in Lady Artemis's cabin, but she wanted to get some time alone for a little while, or at least to get away from those super annoying Stolls.

Percy and Nico were somewhere around camp, and she did not want to run into either one of them. They would hound her for her forgotten money that she still hadn't paid them back. I mean, come on. Thalia thought, where am I going to get the money to pay back debts from three or four years ago?

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Hoping it was Annabeth, Thalia quickly fixed her black hair and threw the door open.

"Lady Artemis!" Thalia reared back in surprise. She hurriedly bowed down.

"There is no need for formalities, Thalia Grace. May I come into your cabin?" Artemis dismissed her bow with a wave of her hand.

"Of- of course, milady. Could I get you some drinks, maybe any food?" Thalia stepped back to let the goddess enter.

"No. No, sit down. We have very little time, and because I am your chosen leader, I must reveal a quest-no, not a quest, but a test to you. It is one that all children of the big three gods have to face eventually. I had hoped that your test would come sometime later so that I did not have to lose you for so long, but alas, I am not the fates." Artemis spoke quickly. She kept looking around, as though she expected a monster to attack any minute.

"Milady?" Thalia asked, more nervous by the minute.

"This test, Thalia, is to teach you to mature, and how to read your fellow family closely. Oh, Hades, what a horrible way to describe that. Basically, you have to take care of your cousins for three months. Your immediate cousins, that is. Percy Jackson and Nico Di Angelo were turned into young children, and they don't know anything about themselves besides their names, and that you are their cousin. Percy is three, and Nico is one and a half. Believe me, if I could have chosen the ages, I would, but, either way, you're still stuck with them. You'll be suspended from your duties as a Huntress for the while, but you will still have to follow us. If we go to Colorado for a while, you will also have to settle in Colorado until the girls leave for another area."

Artemis snapped her fingers, and a small black rhinestone outlined purse appeared.

"This purse will give you unlimited money and drachmas until you are done, and an unlimited credit card, as well. Other than that, you are mainly on your own. However, Zeus decreed that the gods will keep monsters from finding you whenever you leave camp. This makes it slightly easier for you. Also, you may go underground, on the sea, or in the air with no fear of you or one of the boys getting blasted. Do you understand?" Artemis's eyes shone with tears, and Thalia couldn't understand why. She could deal with this. Probably. Maybe. Okay. No.

"Well, here you go." Artemis snapped her fingers again, and a sleeping baby wrapped in a black blanket gently floated down into Thalia's arms. A small boy with curious green eyes and rebellious black hair stared at her from behind Artemis.

He rubbed his eyes sleepily, and then looked at her again. His eyes grew wide, and a grin split across his face.

"Thalia!" He yelled. He ran over to her and threw his arms around her legs.

"Good luck." Artemis whispered before flashing out.

Okay, I didn't see anybody write this kind of a story, so I decided to. Any problem? Any likey? REVIEW! I'll probably do one for Percy and Nico taking care of each other, too.
