Chapter 18 - Chapter 18 Another Knows. 

While Silva was moving towards hunting down and showing Luke how much he had fucked up, Athena was highly confused at being transferred to the training ground of Apollo, she recognised it as he had send pictures of it in the group chats annoying every single god about it.

 

But more importantly, she was highly surprised by the pain she was feeling from her fellow goddess with whom she never had any beef with in the last two millennia.

 

"Artemis why are you doing this, the brat I was about to kill did not belong to our side. He is a filthy roman, why the hell are you so worked up about it" Athena sked as she deduced Artemis was angry because she attacked that boy. In her anger she had only checked whether the kid had an aura similar to that of the romans and nothing more.

 

But sadly, her answer only angered Artemis even more.

 

"You dare; you dare hurt my son" Artemis screamed as she began transforming to her full godly form in anger.

 

Athena was so stunned by that statement that she froze and as she was about to get attacked, an unlikely saviour came from the side, tackling Artemis to the ground.

 

"Stop it now sis, it's a misunderstanding. If you lose control now Silva will pay the price for it. Trust me I saw the future" Apollo shouted which calmed Artemis down.

 

While Athena was still reeling in shock by the new information.

 

"Artemis had a male child" Athena muttered still laying down on the ground.

 

At the same time back at camp.

 

Luke was running as if he was being followed by death itself. And in this case, he knew it was the truth.

 

He had made the plan expecting it to succeed and even if it had failed, he would not have been implicated as he had covered all of his tracks. But the moment Silva called his name in anger, he knew he was dead. He had no idea how Silva found out about it, but he knew there was no escape. That's why he decided he had to run.

 

And while running he was able to hear Silva ordering something about capturing others and Luke knew there was nothing more to do.

 

He knew that he was found. He must have been found a long time ago and might have been spared because they wanted to find out spies and allies he had in camp. But the problems he caused right now might have made them finally run out of patience.

 

Especially Silva who was hunting him right now. He had somehow managed to dodge the three arrows that Silva had already shot towards him. The had grazed and caused small wounds in his body instead of immobilizing him completely. He had no idea that tripping at some stones would help him this much.

 

Silva who was hunting him was able to feel that Luke was being protected. He understood what was happening. Luke was destined for suffering while at the same time being the reason for change in the entire mount Olympus when it comes to the rules of demigods. Silva's manipulation of fate is not strong enough for him to break that fate that Luke is supposed to fulfil.

 

Silva knew he cannot do anything, but the anger he was feeling was reaching a boiling point. And just as he was about to think about what to do, the power inside him awakened, telling him what he can do if he unleashes it.

 

A grin appeared on Silva's face as he realised that while he cannot kill Luke, he can make his life miserable with his powers.

 

At the time Luke was running, he heard a cold voice in his head.

 

"I Silva the hunter has chosen Luke Castellan as the prey for his hunt"

 

The moment the voice came, Luke suddenly felt as if he was struck by lightning, he felt as if his entire being was being marked by something. He was suddenly racked with extreme pain that made him stumble down and when he looked up, he saw Silva staring straight at him.

 

Luke froze; he had no idea what happened.

 

"Your fate is good Luke; I won't be able to kill you now. But remember this, I have marked you as my prey, so you will never be able to sleep unless you faint from being exhausted, you will never be able to relax, you will never find any place that feels like home. Until the day you die, you will be the prey that will feel as if you are being watched by your predator every single day.

Run to the Labyrinth Luke, run for now, but one day you will pay the price for your actions of betrayal" Silva said as he began walking back towards the camp.

 

Luke was shivering, terrified as the weight of what Silva did was finally felt by him in his entire being. He felt as if he was being watched from somewhere, he felt as if he cannot relax at any moment.

 

Luke trembled as he stood up from the ground, he started walking towards Zeus's fist as he knew his plans for the future are not over, even if it had become even more difficult, he will have his revenge.

 

On all of his enemies.

 

_---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

At the same time at Apollo's training grounds, all three gods realised what had happened and Athena realised she became a pawn in the hands of her enemies.

 

"Forgive me for what I did Artemis, I will make sure to compensate your child for attacking him and yes, until the time comes, I will make sure to keep his existence a secret from the other gods" Athena said as she went back to Olympus as being somewhere else at this time might bring about Zeus's suspicion.

 

After she vanished, Artemis turned to Apollo.

 

"I made sure to heal him before I appeared here sis, so you don't have to worry about him for now" Apollo said but Artemis was able to sense a sort of pain in his voice and she realised what caused it.

 

"I'm sorry Apollo, I had to do it so as to keep him safe" Artemis replied as she had used her powers to cover Apollo's perception as well as his future sight from knowing the location of her child. The anger she felt just now might have broken the shield she put on her brother's vision.
