I was terrified, meeting with Zeus was not something I wanted to do, not in the near future, I wanted to live a bit before that.
And here I was, on the Olympus, watching Ares and Zeus talking to each other, all while Artemis looked at me worriedly.
"My son says you are innocent," Zeus said, almost as if not believing his son didn't want someone to die, if only he knew his son was as much of a horny dog as him, "Is it true you only recovered my weapon?" He inquired.
"Yes," I nodded.
"Very well, then I owe you a reward, for doing Olympus a favor," Just like that? No other questions? I mean I don't complain, but holy crap one question and done? How can he be paranoid and so stupid at the same time, I … let it go Adam, you have shit to do.
"I couldn't possibly ask for anything," I really hope he sucks at telling if people are lying, because I was lying through my teeth right now, putting a humble uninterested shoe when I would most absolutely take any rewards, I like stuff, and free stuff holds a special place in my heart.
"I know, I will give you a nice weapon, it's a fitting gift for what you did," Zeus smiled, "Now, feel free to explore Olympus for today, after all, you didn't get to come during the last field trip, so… take this chance to see the place, consider that another reward," and with that, Zeus was gone.
"I told ya, now… let's go and see Aphrodite, I want to let her know… we will have you soon with us," Ares smirked.
"Nope," I shook my head, "I want to go back, Olympus is too… blindingly white, everything shines here, I am pretty sure I will need glasses after coming here, I couldn't even see your Father completely, so I want out…"
"And he will go out," Artemis stated, stopping Ares from arguing the subject any further.
"Fine," Ares sighed, as he started to walk away, leaving me with my sister.
"How did you find out where the weapons were? Why didn't you tell me? And why is Ares so friendly with you?" Artemis bombed me with a bunch of questions, ahhh she was worried.
"A dream," I lied, "I didn't want to annoy you, and well… let's say Ares wants to toss my ass like a salad,"
"That sounds rather unhygienic, and… oh, ew," Wow, I knew she's a virgin, one of the three maidens of Olympus, but still that sexual innuendo took way too long to hit her, "I see,"
"And well, he helped me…" in exchange for my precious booty, little did he know he was not going to tap my no-no square that easily, no no nooo! I would make his path to it… a life threatening experience.
"I will keep an eye on him," Artemis sighed, noticing my discomfort, "Now let me take you back to the camp… and please, don't get the attention of anyone else for a while…" sorry sister, but I am FABULOUS! In the no homo way.

With a flash, I was back to the camp, inside my cabin to be precise, so retaking things were I left them, I walked to my bed with a smile on my face, and I couldn't help but sigh in relief, fully realizing I had survived Zeus and his paranoid ass, a feat not many had done.
"I'm sorry!" Hestia said, coming inside my house through the fire place, tackling me into a hug, "I never expected him to summon you,"
"It's alright," I sighed.

[Ares POV]
Adam, intrigued me, he was both strong and appealing, not only to me but to my Aphrodite, maybe he was the third we were so desperately looking for, a third to fuck for weeks at a time.
With him, I would have access to more fun, Aphrodite seemed eager to have more toys to play with, and so was I.
"So five years?" Aphrodite asked, with a smile, and I nodded.
"You should've seen his face… it was precious," I barked with laughter.
"Of that, I have no doubt," Aphrodite giggled.

[Luke POV]
Adam has been a problem since he arrived, but now? Things had gotten out of control, he had retrieved the symbols of power, in a day.
And Kronos was not happy, not at all, "That kid was an unknown before, but now he is a threat to our plans," Kronos stated, angry.
"What do you want me to do?" I asked, knowing what he would ask.
"Kill him, and make sure he suffers…. he can't be allowed to exist," Kronos growled.
I didn't like the guy, but I didn't hate him that much, "What if I convince him to join us?" I asked.
"You think that's possible?" Kronos asked after a long second of silence, and possibly contemplation about that prospect.
"While he doesn't hate the gods like most of the camp does, he hates people equally, be it gods or mortals from taking his freedom, we could easily offer him more freedom in exchange of taking the Olympians down with us," I explained.
"Huh, very well, try to convince him, if not kill," Kronos said, his voice vanishing into the abyss.
I hope for your own good Adam that you see my way is for the best, for us.

[Adam Aragon POV - Next Day]
Another day, another dollar… or rather a few thousand… a lot of thousands, "Hey Percy, what are you doing here?" I asked as I saw Percy enter my Magic shop of services.
"I have a quest, and… well it's to retrieve my mom, and I want you to come with me and Annabeth," Percy said with a smile.
A chance to annoy Annabeth even more, "Sure," besides, this would be a great opportunity to flex my friendship with Hades.
"Thanks, I will never forget this!" Percy smiled, beaming with happiness.
"No problem, now… let me take a nap, and I'll be good to go in no time," I chuckled. I wanted to recover the mana I had lost during my normal day to day life with my new beauty business, better full than lacking half of it in the middle of an important battle.
