Okay, here is the next POV! It's everyone's favourite Potion's Master! Well, he's not mine…Special thanks go to Lady Taliesin for writing this and letting me post it under my name! You've been great!
Dumbledore took a deep breath before continuing. "On the 31st of October 1981, Voldemort murdered James and Lily Potter. Three days ago, a miracle happened." He paused, casting a meaningful glance at the Order's members. "James Potter is alive. He was brought back from death by the wishes of his son. I found James outside Godric's Hollow and brought him here." Here the headmaster turned to where James sat. "James, if you could please stand."
Incredibly, infuriatingly typical.
Death was meant to be final. That was the whole point. They live, drive you to the edge of insanity, snuff it, and it's over.
Done. Finished.
Apparently someone forgot to mention that small detail to James Potter.
I narrowed my eyes, drawing further back in the corner and glaring at the lanky, black-hair idiot standing awkwardly before the assembled Order. Of course James Potter had come back. Of course. Would anybody bother wishing me back to life if I kicked it? No – probably'd declare it a national holiday, if anyone deigned to notice at all – but James Potter, head boy, hero, and all-around quidditch-extraordinaire; well, that was a different story entirely.
And, to cap it all off, he'd probably receive a hero's accolade for the whole business as well. As though he actually did anything! And I, the Order's spy, risking life and limb for a bunch of vainglorious fools, get stuck teaching potions to a group of nutters at a crackpot school.
Makes one wonder what sort of world we live in, really.
And now Order members were actually showing some small sparks of intelligence – wouldn't have thought it of them, but there's ineffability for you.
"….Death Eater in disguise…"
Quite a brilliant theory, that, but sadly untrue. I don't think it's possible for anyone (with the debatable exceptions of Black, Lupin, and the oh-so-famous-boy-who-lived, of course) to mimic that utterly clueless and vapid expression that quite clearly screams, "I am James Potter. Bow, minions."
Not even Lucius is that good, which really is saying something.
Ah, Potter takes the stage. And just when you thought you were finally rid of his voice once and for all, he comes back fourteen years later and decides to start flaunting it once more. I believe I asked him about that, some twenty years or so ago. Suggested perhaps he ought to invest in a toad and become lead singer of the Hogwarts' choir.
Needless to say he completely missed the sarcasm, and two weeks later Hogwarts was reeling in shock as Professor Flitwick was hospitalized for a heart attack. Bets flew wildly at the time, and the most commonly accepted theory came to be that Peter Pettigrew had finally bungled a spell badly enough to do some actual damage.
(I knew the truth, of course. And kept it as a tidy bit of blackmail information for later.)
Quite the glory days, really. No double dealing, with thick-headed prats on one side and even more thick-headed oafs on the other. No, back then it was me against just about every thick-headed jerk in all of Britain.
And now James Potter, ringleader of it all, is back from the dead, giving some uppity start speech which might be a tad interesting if it actually addressed the whole point of the issue – whether or not the eloquent sod is James Potter.
Although, to be fair I'm not exactly paying attention – it is Potter, I know it. It just has to be. Because the Universe really is that unfair.
And, of course, the Order is stunned into silence. That or he cast a silencing charm on them, which at the moment seems increasingly likely. Would that convince the Order (falsely, but who cares?) that he's a Death Eater…?
"If he isn't James Potter, why would he sound so pained?"
And so, the battle continues. Order, zero – Death Eaters, one.
Coming next is…Wormtail!

COLUMBUS — The Ohio House moved legislation March 30 softening the state's renewable and energy efficiency standards, months after Gov. John Kasich vetoed a comparable bill sent to his desk by the legislature.
HB 114 passed on a vote of 65-30 and heads to the Ohio Senate for further consideration.
Republicans mostly supported the bill.
"Contrary to much of what we have heard today, this bill has nothing to do with climate change or health," said Rep. Bill Seitz (R-Cincinnati). "This is not about whether renewable energy is good or bad. It is not about whether energy efficiency is good or bad… This is a bill about whether mandates on renewable power are the best way to get to the clean energy future that all of us at some level endorse."
Democrats mostly opposed.
"Are we doing this again and again and again? Really?" asked Rep. Mike Ashford (D-Toledo), adding later, "If this is not a job-killer, I don't know what is."
The vote total is noteworthy in that signifies adequate support in the House to override another Kasich veto — 60 votes in the House and 20 in the Senate would be required to accomplish that task.
Republican Senate President Larry Obhof (R-Medina) told reporters March 29 he wasn't sure whether there was veto-proof support in the Senate. The chamber OK'd last year's legislation on a vote of 18-13, short of the number needed to override.
"We had five no votes in the last general assembly on HB 554…," he said. "All five of the no votes are back. And we've had five or six new members, I'm not sure how those affect that vote total."
HB 114 traces its origins to law changes enacted nearly a decade ago requiring power companies to generate a certain percentage of their energy from renewable sources and to institute efficiency initiatives.
The standards called for 25 percent of the energy to be created from advanced sources by 2024 and a reduction of electricity use by 22 percent by 2025. Utilities are allowed to pass the costs of meeting the mandates onto their customers.
Several ago, however, Statehouse Republicans moved legislation freezing the mandates and creating a study committee to offer recommendations for future energy-related law changes.
And late last year, with the latter report in hand, the Ohio House and Senate moved Republican-backed legislation that would have made the energy mandates voluntary and softened annual energy efficiency targets.
Kasich vetoed that bill, and the mandates restarted this year, but Republicans indicated that they would again pursue the legislation this session.
HB 114 is comparable to the bill that was vetoed late last year, effectively making the mandates goals.
Backers of the freeze said the standards in place are higher than those in other states.
Seitz said 21 other states have no renewable portfolio mandates, and no state has adopted such mandates since the end of the recession. Some states have repealed their earlier mandates, following the discovery of oil and natural gas deposits in shale formations.
Seitz added that companies were adopting green energy options without being required to do so.
"You don't need mandates to have clean energy," he said.
Rep. Louis Blessing III (R-Cincinnati) added, "The philosophy behind the bill is simple: In a world where it is extremely easy to go green, mandates are simply not necessary. It is very easy to go green today…. If you want 100 percent renewable energy, then you are free to buy 100 percent renewable energy."
Backers of the bill also said the mandates are arbitrary and drive up energy costs for all customers.
"It's not fair to expect Bob and Betty Buckeye to pick up the tab for that," said Rep. Kristina Roegner (R-Hudson). "I think it's nothing short of selfish to do that."
Opponents, however, say eliminating the mandates would reverse course on green energy advancements that are needed to protect the environment and hurt manufacturers of wind turbines and solar panels and other related green industries.
"We're the first generation to really understand the human causes of climate change, and unfortunately we're the last generation that can do anything about it," said Rep. David Leland (D-Columbus). "What we've tried to do in the state of Ohio, I think, with these energy standards is very, very important. And I think given the problems that the climate and the environment is facing because of excess CO2 in the environment, I think we can do a lot more."
Rep. John Boccieri (D-Poland) said the state's energy standards are an issue of national security.
"The facts are very clear," he said. "Our foreign sources of energy and fossil fuels have embroiled the country in costly diplomatic conflicts and placed troops at risk. Why would we not innovate? Why would we not drive innovation and technology in a state as large as ours and the resources that we have available to us."
House Minority Leader Fred Strahorn (D-Dayton) voiced concern about the legislation's impact on business growth.
"… Some of the major companies, some of the Fortune 100 companies of America, they want this," he said. "They want to be able to access green energy. America's most innovative, successful companies are increasingly turning to using renewable energy to power their businesses. So when we look at this bill, you really have to look at it might be killing for Ohio in terms of rolling the standard back."
Environmental groups also opposed the legislation.
"Today's House vote is another spin on the ideological merry-go-round that wastes legislator's and taxpayer's time," Samantha Williams, staff attorney with the Natural Resources Defense Council, said in a released statement. "The Senate now has a chance to craft a real energy policy that actually works for businesses and families instead of holding back the clean energy jobs that are growing at a thunderous clip in surrounding states."

I would like to thank Congressman James Sensenbrenner, and my friend and civil rights icon, Congressman John Lewis, for sharing their valuable perspectives on the Voting Rights Act with us today.
The Voting Rights Act has been critical to ensuring every American has access to one of our country's most fundamental freedoms -- the right to vote. We may not all agree on the Supreme Court's decision last month, but the Court has now placed the ball in Congress's court to update the law.
The Court explicitly stated that there is no denying that discrimination continues to exist -- and the Court notably did not touch Section 5. That's why it is all the more important that we do our job to restore the protections.
This hearing has been so helpful to demonstrate the bipartisan support for the Voting Rights Act. We should recall the initial enactment and every single reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act has had significant bipartisan support, so this is not a partisan issue. I believe that Congress must work together and act quickly to restore the provisions of the Voting Rights Act struck down by the Supreme Court and protect every Americans' right to vote.

Retrofret Stock # 6643. Gretsch Jet Firebird Model Semi-Hollow Body Electric Guitar (1958), made in Brooklyn, NY, serial # 27281, red and black lacquer finish, laminated maple body, mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard, original two-tone hard shell case. This is a fairly rare Gretsch Jet Firebird from 1958 with a mix of features specific to this year. The pickups are still the DeArmond Dynasonics Gretsch had used since the early 1950's, while many other features had been updated to new 1958 specs including the "thumbprint" Neo-Classic fingerboard inlay and "space control" bridge. This configuration is specific to the "Jets"; as other Gretsch models had adopted the new Filter'Tron pickups by this time. It's likely the company-never known to waste anything-used up their stock of DeArmonds in this manner! The Gretsch Jet series were officially described as solidbodies but are actually chambered semi-solids, and were fairly popular into the late '50's. The sound falls rather in between the typical Gretsch hollowbody and a solid guitar, with a lot of bite but more airy quality than a Les Paul. The Jet Fire Bird carries a red-finished top on a black body and neck, and was the favored guitar of Bo Diddley before he had Gretsch adapt the model into his signature square guitar, which is basically the same except for the body.Overall length is 39 15/16 in. (101.4 cm.), 13 1/2 in. (34.3 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 1 15/16 in. (4.9 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 24 1/2 in. (622 mm.). Width of nut is 1 11/16 in. (43 mm.). Very fine overall; some wear and extremely minor modifications but overall a superb and very original example. The finish is worn to the wood on the treble side of the neck , and there are some small scrapes and dings into the wood in that area. The back has scratches and buckle wear into but not through the finish, with a number of spots to the back edges worn through. The top finish is well preserved, with some very small chips on the edge, light checking and a couple of small touched-up spots. The guitar had a Bigsby mounted at one point-there is a small spot visible where the felt pad rested on the top. The guitar is currently fitted with a period Gretsch tailpiece that is the slightly longer version of the correct "Jet" series model; all other hardware is original except the strap buttons are repro. There is a small inexplicable screw hole through the outer flange of the neck pickup on each side; the pickup appears otherwise original and undisturbed, as do the pots and wiring except a newer ground wire to the tailpiece. This guitar has an unusually good neck angle for this model, and has never been reset, making this Jet a better playing instrument than many. The neck is a fairly deep "D" contour and is very comfortable to play. One of the cooler Gretsch guitars we have had recently, a badass symphony in red and black complete with the original grey case. Excellent - Condition.

Findng the Right QA Tool
A flexible test management strategy is more conducive to agile testing methodologies, which is a big boon for teams that are inching in that direction. Waterfall testing has not altogether dried up; however, agile software development is increasingly becoming the norm.
Flexibility in test management fosters more freedom to cater a QA strategy to the needs of a specific project rather than forcing testing into a mold, and it is this elasticity that truly defines agile. Legacy systems like HP QC can't offer the flexible configurations your team needs as your processes evolve and grow.

Have Urology Questions? Ask a Urologist Online.
Brown semen is a sign of old blood in the semen. Blood in the semen is a common benign finding in men and is due to either inflammation of the ejaculatory ducts, prostatitis or trauma to the prostate from long periods of sitting or bike riding. The bleeding can take 6-8 weeks to clear up and the more you ejaculate, the sooner it clears up. At a minimum, you should see a urologist to have your PSA checked and your prostate examined to screen for prostate cancer. Hope this helps and please let me know if you have questions.

Some felt that Morris had little chance of making an impact in a poor side - but few defended his performances
Some of your feedback has been reproduced below:
Lazlo Strivenka
Without a doubt a miss. Despite his odious off-field antics, Jody Morris's reputation on the field at Chelsea seemed to indicate that Peter Reid may have made a shrewd signing. Like pre-2002 Lee Bowyer, his battling performances for Chelsea won many over who would otherwise judge him for his loutish shenanigans. But the best one can say about Jody Morris in a Leeds shirt is that he does not suck as much as Jose Vitor Roque Junior. Like Paul Okon last year, Mr Morris's great crime is that he is anonymous, not contributing much to each game while not dropping large clangers either. Leeds's midfield looks much better without him, and despite an alarming lack of depth in midfield, I would not anticipate him being deployed in Leeds's battle against relegation. Without a doubt he would have fit in better at Cardiff, and perhaps he will sooner than later, for it seems he does not have the heart to grab a bucket and save the Premiership's biggest sinking ship.
Arya Hafshejani
Who? Try a miss by a martian mile!
Kris Wright
Definitely a miss. something seems to have gone wrong for him and he now lacks the tenacity and fighting spirit that saw him become a Chelsea regular. It's obviously an ongoing thing as Claudio Ranieri had the foresight not to offer him a new contract. Maybe his off-field antics had something to do with it. It's a shame really as he was at one point and exciting player to watch and was destined for an England berth.

Hi, I have been following many posts on this site and felt I should share my story and photos for others considering removing their breast implants. I feel the main reason i viewed this site was to see what the before and after pics were like and was happy to read others stories and that I'm not the only one doing this! I got my implants when I was 23 years old, placed under the muscle, then I was a 34A. My implants looked great when I was younger, they were perky but after children and over the years gaining about 20 lbs they are sagging and not pretty at all to me. So I figure if they're not gonna look good without a bra anyway might as well get them out! I really cant wait, I feel embarrassed that I ever did this to my body but when I was younger I wanted them so bad, lol! Anyhow the plan is to remove my implants under local anesthetic leaving in the capsules. I don't want to replace and it is unlikely I will ever get a lift. I am returning to the surgeon who place them, he gave me prescription valium and percocet to take before the procedure if I want. I will let you know how it goes! I am very nervous about the results, but cant keep these things in forever.
15 Year Old Saline Implants Under the Muscle About to Come Out! - Massachusetts, MA
They're out!
So far so good, I got the implants out yesterday afternoon. I'm sore this morning mostly where the incisions were . I think they're still swollen and will be even smaller than they are now but I'm glad I did this ! Here's my first after photo, they look a lot bigger in the picture than they really are but that's OK! I'll try to continue to posting updates as the healing process continues.

David Gifford, EECS professor and director of the Computational Genomics Group in the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL), working with members of his group, has developed a new algorithm for analyzing millions of experimentally identified DNA fragments and allowing the inference -- with 55% accuracy in the most difficult cases -- of the precise locations at which transcription factors bind to them.

This fall, the faculty and students in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) Department at MIT are coming together for a new program that has created a buzz since its announcement last spring. The Advanced Undergraduate Research Program — now officially called the SuperUROP — for EECS department juniors and seniors has already enticed over 200 students with more than 100 exciting research projects proposed by the department's faculty.

Manolis Kellis, an associate professor of computer science at MIT and an associate member of the Broad Institute, is one of the lead computational scientists and authors of a paper that describes the functionality of the non-gene regions (about 80 percent) of the human genome, the so-called 'junk DNA'.
We study several natural problems in which an {\em unknown} distribution over an {\em unknown} population of vectors needs to be recovered from partial or noisy samples. Such problems naturally arise in a variety of contexts in learning, clustering, statistics, data mining and database privacy, where loss and error may be introduced by nature, inaccurate measurements, or on purpose.
Applying random linear projections, a.k.a. "sketching", has become a standard technique when analyzing high-dimensional data sets. The resulting algorithms are embarrassingly parallelizable and suitable for stream processing.

OK so me and this guy are just in a 'casual' relationship but the thing is, I like him more than that and he knows but I don't let it affect our 'casual' thing. He texts me all the time and sometimes says he loves me. If I don't text him back he's sends allot of texts all like text me back baby which is nice to know he needs me. But we had an disagreement bout something today and he hasn't texted me back in a while. I texted him but haven't like text bombed him I texted him between 3 times since lunch time. He said he loved me which is why he always texting me and stuff but then he also said that I was only a 'causal' thing which was during the umm little fight thing. I know he'll text me again maybe tomorrow or in a couple of days because he always comes back to me but what the hell is going through his head?! help please. It's not like he can't get any other girls because he is really hot and kind and caring and nice
Most Helpful Guy
The odds are he probably does care about you. The casual remark is to try to hurt you because you are in a fight with him. However, don't assume he'll always come back. Sometimes it's best to put your pride aside and make up.00|00|0

Im into death metal and would love to find a death metal guy to stand by my side, but problem is they all seem to just want to be my friend. I want to look metal but also classy. I understand that straight men do like girls who dress kinda girly and not to slutty. I need help finding a style or outfit that a metal guy would be weak at knees for.

When you say get his attention, or make him weak in his knees I just think of slutty outfits. Honestly you could wear something that's not even metal as long as you're nice, and seem to enjoy the music. If it helps I think these outfits look nice.

Some safety scores haven't been updated for the 2013 model year, but the Jetta hasn't changed--and its strong performance in years past is a good reason to recommend it, though it lacks a lot of the newest safety options that other compact cars now offer.
The Jetta sedan is a strong performer in the federal crash-test regimen. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) awards the four-door a score of four stars overall, with individual ratings of four stars for front-impact and rollover protection, and a five-star score for side-impact protection. The SportWagen, though, hasn't seen its scores updated in some time, and it is based on a different architecture, which performed well under prior tests.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has named both Jettas to its Top Safety Pick list. However in the new small overlap frontal test the Jetta Sedan earned an unimpressive 'marginal' rating.
Six airbags are standard on every Jetta, including dual front, side and curtain airbags. So are stability control and anti-lock brakes; active headrests; and tire pressure monitors. The Jetta also features a crash-response system that turns off the fuel and turns on the flashers after an airbag deploys.
One advantage to the Jetta's upright sedan profile is good outward visibility. The rear roof pillars are tall, the rear-seat headrests are low, and the glass area is large--all of it adding out to better rear and three-quarter visibility than in, say, the more elongated and swoopy Hyundai Elantra compact sedan. But the rearview camera feature is restricted to the high-end Jetta GLI model, and no Jetta offers blind-spot detection or parking proximity sensors, even as options.

The actor says, "Yes, Genelia is the brand ambassador. In fact, she has even designed the look of the team. She is part of my life as well as my work."

Why is our population so diseased? Why do employees lack motivation and energy? Why can't our kids focus in school? Why is America losing its leadership edge in the world? What if there were a single underlying reason that answered all these questions? As you may have guessed, there is•poor nutrition.
This course is based on The Complete Guide to Wellness by two wellness experts, Richard Bellingham, Ed.D. and Barry Cohen, Ph.D., and published in 2001 by HRD Press. Their book is a culmination of over 20 years of experience in hospitals, wellness centers, and corporations, helping people live healthier, more innovative, and more productive lives. Bellingham and Cohen's approach to wellness is based on the belief that the human being is a system that requires a systematic approach for real change.
This course is intended for any employee in an organization who seeks a healthier way of living, learning, and working. Wellness: Introduction and Self-Assessment is a prerequisite.
We develop the best quality training and development programs, to build useful skill sets that can be utilized immediately in the workplace. We truly believe that human capital development is the key to making organizations productive and profitable.

The Arizona massacre reverberates across America's political landscape. There'll be discourse on our public discourse. The rhetoric about the vituperation in America's political rhetoric, the presence of war and violence images--that will go on and on. There's a verbal war about warlike verbiage. It sadly eclipses other crucial issues.
Beyond the real human concern for the real humans directly affected by the massacre and wounded, I can only hope three long-standing American problems, made manifest by the Tucson gunman, will not be ignored.
Mental Health Mess
How many mass killings, with legal weapons wielded by troubled young men do we need before we understand? We need preventive mental health measures. It might be worth a little effort and expense in our violence-prone public culture. What value do we place on innocent lives lost in preventable massacres?
The Jonesboro, Arkansas, massacre in 1998 was not enough.
Columbine High in 1999 was not enough.
Red Lake, Minnesota, was not enough.
Virginia Tech was not enough.
All these and the many more mass shootings in America's recent years share two things: guns and troubled, young shooters. The horrific Tucson massacre was not surprising nor even unforeseeable. It was horrible but seemingly inevitable. This ugly part of American history seems surely to be repeated.
We have almost no mental health system. The Virginia Tech killings are a case study of our entire society ignoring preventable disaster. We build towns on the beach in hurricane country. We treat mental illness like a rare, unpredictable disease. Hurricanes and psychotic behavior are both inevitable. When will we ever learn?
Tucson threatens to be similar to Virginia Tech. In either case were the parents or others close to the gunman able to get preventive treatment? Clear signals of coming violence must be taken seriously. Arizona has over 6.5 million residents. Statistics indicate there are tens of thousands of schizophrenic folks in Arizona.
Some portion of those are potentially violent. Arizona has just one public, modest-sized mental hospital.
If nothing changes in how we deal with mental illness, we just await the next mass shooting.
As the pro-gun lobby loves to tell us, guns don't kill people. True. People with guns kill people. And the bigger the gun, the more bullets the gunman can fire, the more people will be killed or wounded. Couldn't be clearer.
There's no effective way in the U.S. today to keep people who may be deranged from obtaining one of the more than 250-million legal guns here. It should be noted that we Americans own more guns per capita than any other nation on earth.
Does that make you feel safer?
Campaign Money
This lack of effective mental health intervention fits with readily available guns for anybody with some money and a desire to shoot. Neither problem will be dealt with as long as big money is gathered for political campaigns. The folks who nudge or push elected officials to ignore or deal with issues have a great deal of money. No moneyed interest sees much profit in dealing with mental illness issues. Thus our mentally ill will continue to populate our streets and allies, or troubled families. We all know there's a well-funded set of lobbyists to any local, state or federal government intervention in Americans owning guns.
There's profit in selling guns and ammunition. Some of money is used for constant lobbying. As long as hundreds of millions of dollars are spent in campaigns in America, guns will be easy to get and mental illness will be a non-issue. Their toxic mix will continue to have a horrific effect on our public welfare. Tucson will not be our last American mass shooting unless there is serious effort on both mental illness and easy gun access.

A story about a goddess named Aella, or Αελλα (ai l uh) and is an untold version of part of The Sea of Monsters and Titan's Curse. She has been in sleep for the last thousands of years, but is finnaly awake.
She finds who her mother is, but would be a crime if Zues or any other gods besides only a few found out of her heritage.
But who is her father? Will she be found out?
By Hazelcats 01:10, May 14, 2010 (UTC)
P.S. This will be long, I can tell you that.
She had just given birth to her daughter.
"What will I do?" she sighed.
A bright light appeared and when it died, the messanger appeared.
"You can not keep her a secret forever." he warned her.
"I know Hermes. Apollo sees a land called America, far after the greeks. Sometime then, when she is needed most, I shall wake her."
"And her name is?" Hermes asked.
"...Αελλα. The whirlwind. I do not know her powers, but her father's powers will have a part I'm sure. What ever she shall be most at, she will always be the storm." she sighed.
"Take her, somewhere she will not be found, by her father or any other god." she said as she handed Αελλα to him.
"Goodbye, my daughter." she said as he took her away, to never be found by any god but him.
Chapter 1: Wake Up, Come Out, and Hide For Your Life
Aella's P.O.V.
I woke up in a what looked like a cave. Their were torches along the wall, and the walls were reflective, though they were stone.
I didn't even remember falling asleep. I didn't even remember who I was.
I looked at the wall.
I had long black hair and silver eyes and pale skin. Really, really pale skin, near white. Well I was in a cave.
But the cave had no ceiling, like I was in a pit.
Suddenly a bright light appeared. In it's place was a man with curly black hair and blue eyes.
Though I had never seen him, I knew his name. Hermes.
"I am Hermes. I have been sent here for you." he said.
"Wait, sent here for me? I don't know you!! I-I don't even know anything." I sighed.
"But you do. You were born thousands of years ago on a deserted island. You are the goddes Aella."
He explained all about the greek gods, everything.
I felt like an idiot. I didn't know this? It seemed oddly familiar though.
"Who are my parents?" I asked him.
"Artemis is your mother, but your father I do not know, only that he was a minor god."
"Wait, Artemis swore she would be a virgin. She couldn't be my mother."
"She had you before she pledged that." he replied.
"Well... okay, but why was I asleep for all these years couldn't my mother give me to another trusted god?" I asked him, and immediatly felt dumb.
"No, your eyes would give it away. Your eyes are silver, not gray, so you could not be a child of Athena, besides, she never married."
"I thought you said she had children."
"I did."
"Oh... Where am I anyway?" i asked.
"Calypso's island. One of the only immortals who know of you."
"Who else knows of me?"
"Your mother, Calypso, Morpheus, though he does not know who your parents are, and me." he repied.
There was silence.
"Come with me. We must meet with Calypso." he said.
It was a few weeks after I had awaken. I was leaving for Camp Half-Blood today. I had made great friends with Calypso, but Hermes had to leave.
I still hated the fact of being their. I had to wear contacts, fake my identity, aghh!!
My contacts were a dull brown, not natural, but good enough. I had chosen them actoully, to not draw attention to myself.
"Goodbye Calypso." I said as I hugged her.
"I hope to see you soon, it's to bad you had to hide everytime a god came though."
I had to hide in my cave, which wasn't a cave. A pit, just as I thought. It was a few thousand feet drop. Thank gods I was a god.... that sounded wierd.
I sighed. "Bye." I said again and headed to camp.
I appeared on a hill. I had an old T-shirt on and jeans. I had to look lost, but no where I had to go.
I had my contacts in, my hair messy, and I prayed I wouldn't look familiar.
I walked up the hill, and came apon a satyr.
It was playing reed pipes, to a dying pine tree.
"Um... hello?" I said.
It turned and backed up.
"Oh, sorry, hi. I'm Tarm." he said.
"Yeah... it's an old name..."
"Oh, well, I'm Ally."
It was the best name close enough to my real name that I liked.
Then a girl with brown hair and brown eyes came up.
"Hi! I'm Leah Carter, daughter of Demeter. Who are you?" she asked me.
"Ally. I came looking for camp after being attacked. I don't know who my parent is though." Well part of it was true. I didn't know my father.
"Well I'll show you around, you came at a bad time though. Your lucky a monster didn't get you. Thalia's tree is dying, so the borders are as well. I came to help the tree." she sighed, but shook her head.
"Come on, we have to me, er... Tantalas..." she said Tantulas like someone would say Tartarus or Fields of Punishment.
"I still don't think it was Chiron." Tarm muttered.
Chiron, the teacher here?
Hermes had told me about camp, Chrion, and all the basics, but nothing specific.
He had also told me about the war. Not much though. He looked pained to talk about it.
We walked into camp, and... wow.
It looked great, but also depressed.
Campers worked hard in the forges and training areas. I saw a group going out for patrol, but they looked like they tried not to let anyone know.
She took me to the big house to meet Mr. D and Tantulas. I had seen Dionysus in images, but never Tantalas. He scared me, and I could kick his butt.
He was... disturbing. I had heard his story. Give his son to the gods for a meal!! Huh!! How glad I am I was asleep!!
After an introduction, I could tell Dionysus was suspicious of me. Great. Just what I need!!
I was put in the Hermes cabin on the floor. Thankfully with my powers, it was comfortable.
Every day Mr. D eyed me. I came here to hide, not to be discovered!!
Artemis help me!!
Chapter 2: When You Save a Mouse's Life, Expect Gratitude and Suspicion
Leah's P.O.V.
Percy, Annabeth, Grover, and Clarrise were back. I prayed that Percy and the others wouldn't be found out. Thankfully Grover was back though, Tarm was happy about that.
The golden fleece was amazing. The borders and tree grew stronger all the time.
But ever since yesterday, I think that it would be better if we had taken the fleece off.
Thalia was revived.
It was all part of Luke's plan. Revive Thalia, more big three children to get on his side.
Thalia was Luke's best friend.
Not. Good. Right. Now.
I wished Ally would be claimed. I thought she was a daughter of Demeter, her brown eyes? Demeter sign!
But her eyes, the color.... it was wierd, dull, like contacts.
I had always thought they may be contacts.
I found out if I was right last night.
After the shock of Thalia, I thought I saw Ally going into the girls bathroom, like she didn't want to meet her. Thalia seemed nice, though I don't think I liked her punk look.
I think it may have been because of Zues, her father. I mean, what if Thalia, or any other child of the big three got mad. SHOCK!! SPLASH!! and then..... uh, I've never met a child of Hades, but I'm guessing skelaton clatter... Yeah...
Well, anyway, I followed her and found her messing with a small container.
"Aggh!! Why couldn't I get green eyes?" she sighed.
It looked like she was taking contacts out. She put them away and fixed her hair.
"Hey Ally!" I said, wanting to confirm myself
"Huh!? What? Leah?" she asked, not looking at me.
"Yeah, what's the box for?" I asked.
"That? Contacts, I hate glasses." she said.
"Are they colored? Your eyes are kind of... dull, no offence!!! Just wondering!" I said, thinking I said the wrong thing.
"Um, no, but I know my eyes are dull, they uh, contacts do it...." she said.
Aella's P.O.V.
Shoot!!! Didn't even hear her!! Huh!
I slowly reached to my pocket, not noticed I hoped.
I blinked my eyes and my contacts were in, but they weren't dull thankfully
I turned to her.
"Yeah, dull, this is my real eyecolor!! Bye!!" I said and walked quickley out of the room.
Danget!!! I came in here to get away from Thalia, and I get caught!
I didn't want to get close to Thalia because of her father. I could not get found out!!
I walked to the Hermes cabin, but stopped.
I stared at my mothers cabin, silver from the moon.
"When will I meet you?" I whispered, staring at the full moon.
I sighed, I could never meet her, unless I joined the hunters and pretended to be a demigod, but it wouldn't be the same.
I still wished I could meet my father. And punch him in the mouth.
I couldn't believe what he did to my mother!!! Horrible!!
I knew he was a minor god, but so was I. Probably. I was the god of whirwinds, but I still thought something else. Still whirwinds, but another thing to...
I walked along the beach when I saw something. A snake chasing a mouse.
I recognized it as one of the Athena test animals, for expiraments. Not many children of Athena used them, but some did.
"Stop!" I said, not loud though.
Suddenly the snake stopped and slithered into the woods.
The mouse came over to me and looked up at me.
"Woah. Creepy." I muttered.
I picked up the mouse and stared at it.
Thank you lord!!! a voice said in my mind.
"Aggh!" I yelped and almost dropped it.
"Um... no problem......" then it hit me.
Goddes of prey and predators. It was kind of the same as Artemis, but their were gods like that.
"Come on, let's go." I said.
I carried her ( at least i think it was a she) to camp. I saw Annabeth and Malcolm talking by their cabin.
"Hey! Is this yours?" I asked them.
They turned and stared at the animal, because it was dark to tell.
"Oh!! There she is! We've been looking for Owl for a while." Malcolm said.
"Owl?" Annabeth asked.
"We got her from a barn that was full of barn owls." Malcolm said.
"Well, Snake would be better. I saved it from a snake, it went into the woods." I shrugged.
"Hmm. It's a good thing. The snake would have died. Some of our cabin mates are trying to find a cure for a type of cancer. It may have been a wrong cure though. More likely for snake bite. Thanks." Annabeth murmered and they went into their cabin.
Annabeth's P.O.V.
Now how did she save the mouse? The snake was probably venomous.
Who knows. At least Thalia was back. I had wanted to spend more time, but Chiron called her to the big house.
It was Luke though. He ment to. The prophecy.... sixteen.... oh help us!!!!!
Chapter 3: Meet Artemis? Sure!! Wait, they Meant The Hunters
Aella's P.O.V.
It was a few months after Thalia came back.
Thalia, Percy, and Annabeth were off to Maine to help Grover with a few demigods.
I was on the beach when I saw Percy, Thalia, and another boy with black hair and dark eyes talking to Chiron.
Then I saw a group of girls going to the Artemis cabin. The Hunters.
I searched desperatly for someone who would look like my mother.
No one.
But, incase I missed her, I sat near the woods and her cabin, drawing, around night time.
I drew a picture of the moon, though I couldn't see it. It was a new moon though.
It was a cresent moon, surrounded by only a few stars. Below it was the ocean and the setting sun.
No one came out, a surprise. I decided to go to the beach, make it look more realistic.
As I was adding more detail, two girls were walking down the beach. One looked oddly like the demigod I had seen talking to Chiron, who I had heard as Nico. The other had black hair and a silver tiara.
I recognized them as Bianca, Nico's sister, and Zoe, the lieutenent.
I turned invisible. Ok, I know you don't hear about gods turning invisible. No one knows they do! That's because you can't see them.
They were talking about Artemis hunting a monster, that's why I never saw her!!!
Then I realized soemthing. My notepad was still their.
Bianca saw it.
"What's this?" she muttered while picking it up.
I had to get it back. It had other drawings in it. Drawing of temples and statues. Of mine.
It sounds greedy, but hey, no one knows about me. I deserve to have at least on statue or temple.
"It's mine!" I said, coming out of the trees, visible.
"Sorry, I left it here." I said quickley as I half took it polietly half grabbed it.
"Hmm. Where did youlearn to draw like that?" Zoe asked suspiciosly.
"I always liked art. Sorry I have to go." I said quickley and ran into the trees.
Chapter 4: Aella + Luke = Dead
I'm playing capture the flag.
Campers lose.
Thalia and Percy fight.
Oracle zombie goes for a walk.
She says a prophecy.
I about go to find Luke and rip his head off.
Five shall go west to the goddess in chains,
One shall be lost in the land without rain,
The bane of Olympus shows the trail,
Campers and Hunters combined prevail,
The Titan's curse must one withstand,
And one shall perish by a parent's hand.
I will kill him.
Phoebe, Zoe, Thalia, Grover, and Bianca are chosen.
Percy is found upset.
Well I was about 20 times more angry then him.
Phoebe's skin was covered in hives thanks to the Stoll brothers.
I prayed I could go with them.
They didn't chose anyone.
They had left now. Percy was no where to be seen. No one else noticed. I did though.
Hey, if he goes, SO DO I!!!!!
Just before they left, I made myself invisible and tagged along on the bag of the van.
It was fun.
I could tell Percy was somewhere.
I could see a pegausus in the sky for about a second before it dissapeared.
This would be fun.
I made myself visible.
A car hinked and swerved.
Thankfully the car wasn't to visible.
I saw a car behind us, who should have seen me.
Why didn't they freak out.
I couldn't think about that now, we were close do Washington D.C.
Wierd, not many cars.
When we got to Washington, I looked for Percy.
I suddenly saw him. He had Annabeth's Yankee's cap on.
I could see him. Sweet.
I followed him, but his form flickered and he dissapeared.
I tried to find him, and about five minutes later I found a room.
I stayed. It was a meeting.
About the Olympians.
A large man was staring over the ground.
Suddenly skelatons rose from the ground.
Not good.
They jerked their head towards a small corner.
Suddenly I saw Percy's form flicker.
He was running to the exit.
The skelatons ran after him.
He got out in time, but a piece of cloth from his clothes was with the skelatons.
Oh man.
Not good.
I ran out after them, but they smelled me to.
I tried to find them, but he was gone.
I turned visible, surprising a homeless looking guy.
I ran to a different room in the museum, a dinasour exibit.
"OH COME ON!!!" I yelled, people looked at me.
Then I large lion entered the room, and people started screaming and running in different directions.
A Neamean lion.
Not good.
I had to warn them.
It ignored me and ran in a different direction.
I started running after it, and just when I saw the space exibit, I ran after it, invisible, and saw the others.
Percy was talking to them, and Zoe looked pretty ticked.
"RUN!!!!" I screamed, and ran into the gift shop.
They turned and immediatly got ready to fight.
After a few minutes of crashing and screaming from tourists, Percy ran into the gift shop.
Somehow I knew what he was looking for and found it.
Astrounat food. Ew.
As he was looking, I got behind him and pushed him in it's direction. He looked shocked and looked around, but quickley ignoired it and grabbed the food.
I had to get out.
Had to.
I ran out, searching desperatly, when I found their van.
I stopped by it, gasping.
Why did a god have trouble with running? Oh gods help me.
The others ran out, not noticing me because of my powers, and got in the car.
I grabbed onto the back, and we spead off.
A helicopter was above us. Enemies.
I glared at it.
I felt like my head was about to explode from pressure.
Then I realized something.
Zues would no someone other than his daughter controled lightning.
I was the god of whirlwinds and other storms. Gota be careful.
We went into a subway and rode different trains until we got to, well no where.
I felt a power, someone powerful.
I saw a homeless guy around a fire.
He was a god, but who?
Then it hit me
My uncle, Apollo.
The others started talking to him, and I blinked. When I blinked, a train had appeared. How in the world?
As they got on it, Peryc turned around.
Apollo was gone.
I turned myself into an older girl, eighteen.
I had my same hair and eyes, silver, who cared about contacts?
I had a jeans and and a leather jacket on. I had sunglasses on, to hide my eyes.
I got on the train just before it left and sat in the back. This would be fun.
Artemis, where ever you are, help me.
Chapter 5: The Worst Part of a Quest
Ok, so I fell asleep.
Man that was stupid!
Ok, first my dream.
I dreamt I was in a cave.
I saw Annabeth holding up the collapsing cave's ceiling.
Then Artemis and a few others came into the cave.
Artemis was in chains.
Suddenly the scene shifted.
"No! Wait!!" I wanted to scream, but I couldn't speak.
I gasped and woke up.
I sighed. Still on the train.
I felt another godly power.
I dissapeared immediatly and ran out. Into the dessert.
Crap that was stupid.
I stumbled out.
"OH COME ON!!!" I screamed, stamping my foot.
Great. Now what?
Then I remembered the prophecy.
One shall be lost in the land without rain,
Well, might as well follow the tracks for hours and hours.
I blinked and I was on the train, in my same spot.
A few hours later we got off the train in a small town in the dessert.
I made myself look like a worker and sold them a... rubber rat...
They were attacked by skelatal warriors.
Not good.
I suddenly felt something.
A god's power, but it was so unfamilar.
Suddenly a shot was fired.
Percy was shot.
The prophecy.
Grover's P.O.V.
Percy was shot.
I wanted to run over to him, but something stopped me.
I felt a strong power.
The power of a god.
The power of the wild.
The power of Pan.
Aella's P.O.V.
Percy got up thank gods!!
Again thanking myself.
Suddenly the power came back.
Grover collapsed.
It reminded me of the wild.
The god of the wild was Pan.
Was it Pan?
I had left a few minutes after Ares appeared.
Yeah I'm not going to stay around with him.
The next day, they had gone through a junkyard. The junkyard of the gods.
I had stayed a good space away from them, when a large rumbling came from behind.
I turned and saw a giant.
Oh come on! Who took something?
I ran around behind it, invisible, and stayed a good length away, but fast enough to help them.
I then saw Bianca and Percy arguing. Bianca then handed Percy the doll.
Bianca ran off towards the giant.
She would die. She would. Be lost in the land without rain.
No, lost means go missing, not die.
I hope.
Suddenly the robot started collapsing.
It fell into pieces, Bianca with it.
The others started looking for her, but hours past.
No one. Nothing. Not a trace.
This was the prophecy.
She was so young, the newest hunter.
Oh poor Nico!
When the others had left, giving up, I searched.
I searched for a few hours. Until I found her.
I had lifted up a large piece of metal, and there she was.
She was dead. Wait. No, she wasn't.
"Bianca!" I gasped and rushed over to her.
"Wh-... who...?" she managed, barely loud enough to here.
I sighed.
"You will go to Elsyium Bianca"I whispered.
Nico's P.O.V.
I dreamed of Bianca and the others.
They were fighting... some kind of giant...
I couldn't see Bianca anymore, but after a few minutes, I saw her go up into it's... foot...
A couple minutes later, the giant collapsed.
The others searched for her, it seemed like hours.
Finnaly when they left, a girl with black hair came out.
She looked for her to, and after about an hour, she lifted up a large piece of metal.
She gasped and thre it aside.
Bianca was their, almost dead.
I couldn't here what they were saying, but only a few seconds later, a buzz went through my ears.
The girl layed her hands on her and her body dissapeared.
I woke up in a cold sweat.
Who was the girl? She looked so familiar.
But it had to be fake. It couldn't be real. Just couldn't....
Chapter 6: Lost and Found
Aella's P.O.V.
So I took a while finding them. Ok, wierd for a godess. Not really.
So I had some fun with my powers.
I created a twister and road it.
It was fun.
While doing this, I thought I saw canoes.
I started walking towards the river and found the Hoover Dam.
So I'm walking around the dam, not really caring about it at the moment, and walk into an elavator.
Bad, and I mean BAD BIG MISTAKE.
I felt a godly power.
I turned and looked around the elavator.
A women with blonde hair and sunglasses that was the tour guide I guessed.
She was a god. I knew it.
I had changed my appearence to jeans and a camp-half blood shirt, but I had a black hoodie over it.
I took my sunglasses out and put them out. Not taking any risks.
Suddenly Percy ran in.
Oh crud.
I pulled my hoood up over my hair, looking down.
I drowned out the sounds around me, praying to Artemis to help me.
Thankfully I snapped out of it as the door opened.
I practically ran out of there.
Nope, no risks.
I pulled my hood down and took my glasses off.
I ran and hid by the bathrooms.
A girl with frizzy reddish brown hair that looked like she had a cold looked at me, but turned away.
Then Percy started running over.
"Oh come on!!!" I sighed.
"What?" the girl asked.
"Huh? Uh, nothing, but if that boy over there asks about me, say nothing." I said and ran and hid.
I went into another elavator.
The women with the sunglasses was their.
I saw her giving me quick glances.
Why? Why do you hate me Fates?
I kept my head down.
She can think I'm a god, but not who.
As the door opened, I desperatly searched for them. They were all running out of the cafiteria, and it sounded like a war in their.
Suddenly I had the wierdest vision.
My mother holding up the sky.
Holding. Up. The. Sky.
I would kill whoever did that.
Chapter 7: The Wierdest Way to Meet Your Mother
So, I went on my own search.
I went to San Francisco.
Ok, I'd like to say I rescued my mother and Annabeth, unknown, but no.
I went shoping.
Dumb. Very dumb.
So I went soping at this secret demigod shop. Since it was San Fransico, they needed it.
I bought this camouflage jacket. It was enchanted, so it could hold up to 1000 lb and you didn't feel it. The items shrunk when you put them in and they grew to normal size when they came out of your pocket.
I used my powers so I looked like someone in an intense capture the flag war.
Yeah, I mean war.
I had my jacket on, with old jeans and a camo base ball hat.
I had dark sunglasses on and my hair was back.
I rented a car (I really stole one) and drove to the Mount Othyrs.
Unfortuanatly, my car got blasted.
I hate you Zues.
So I had to walk about ten miles.
I just blinked and I was in front of the tree of imortality.
There was a dragon.
Thank gods it was turned in the opposite.
Wait,never mind.
It sensed me and turned towards me.
Then a few girls that looked alot like Zoe came forward.
"Who are you? On a quest? Hmm, try to get past Ladon." one of the girls said.
I glared at her.
"I am on a quest, but if you don't let me through, expect a storm to be coming." I threatened.
She looked at me closely.
"You remind me of someone, I do not know who though, but I believe you. But if your here for Atlas, he's gone." she said and they turned and left.
I started to walk up, but a flash of lightning came through the sky and I heard the same sound that tour through the air when my car exploded.
The others were here.
So I run up the hill as fast as I can, and I get lost.
So I'm walking around and Percy and the others is all I find.
They were fighting.
How did I not see that earlier?
Percy was talking to Artemis.
Who was holding up the sky.
I wanted to run up to Luke and rip his head off.
It sounded like he was trying to convince my mother to let him take the sky, but my mother was to proud.
So I did something that could blow my cover.
I was invisible, so I ran towards them and pushed Percy and Artemis so that Percy was in her place.
I could've taken it, but that wouldn't be good. Someone invisible holding up the sky?
No way.
I crashed into a wall.
Artemis' P.O.V.
I was pushed out of the way by something.
I looked for it, but I saw no one. Suddenly a pile of rocks fell from a wall, like someone crashed into them.
My daughter.
Chapter 8: The First
Aella's P.O.V.
I crashed into the wall, oddly. A pile of rocks fell onto me, and when I looked up, my mother was staring at me.
I wanted to run to her, but instead I blinked and dissapeared on the other side of the ruins.
When I looked over, Artemis was fighting Atlas and Percy looked like he could pass out.
Luke and Thalia were fighting to the death, and I had to restrain myself from finishing him off.
I worked my way through the ruins, when I saw Atlas trip Artemis to the ground.
I could feel my face grow red, but then I saw Zoe.
"No!" she screamed and shot an arrow at his forhead.
Atlas yelled in rage and swept her aside with his hand and she crashed into a wall.
Then Atlas went for Artemis, but she tricked him and used his javelin as a lever and threw Atlas towards Percy, who slipped out of the way as Atlas took the sky.
But I wasn't paying that much attention. I was running towards Zoe.
I kneeled over her body. She would die, no stopping it. There was poison in her body, from Ladon I guessed.
"W-who are you?" she gasped.
I didn't reply. I said words of healing in ancient greek.
I would keep her alive as long as I could.
Zoe's P.O.V.
She kneeled over me, saying words of healing.
She looked so familiar. She reminded me of Artemis but with black hair. Her eyes were even the same.
But how was that possible?
She was a god. I knew that. But who? I had never seen her before.
Suddenly her head jerked up.
"Do not tell anyone about me. No one. Not even in the after...." she told me and dissapeared in a shower of mist.
Suddenly a horrible thought came to my mind.
Could she be her daughter?
No... no... it wasn't possible... Artemis would not break her oath...
But what if she was born before she made her oath?
Chapter 9: When Your on Olympus, Hide
Aella's P.O.V.
I had gone to Olympus.
I waited untill the council was over.
They through a party.
I again hid.
I stayed in a small garden away from the party when an elfish man came up to me.
"Hermes." I said.
"Hello Aella. I see you met your mother."
"No, no I didn't. We saw eachother. Never talked."
He chuckled.
"And you don't go talk to her now? Why not? The gods will-" he was interupted by a call.
He sighed.
"At the worst of times." he muttered and answered it but said a quick goodbye.
I sat in the garden, staring into space.
"Aella" a voice behind me said.
I turned and saw a girl in silver robes.
"Artemis." I whispered, unable to speak for some reason.
She smiled and walked up to me and hugged me.
"I am sorry. If only you could be known." she sighed.
I wanted to say more, but then Percy started walking over, looking for something.
I sighed.
"Goodbye mother." I whispered.
We hugged again and she dissapeared.
I hid behind a tree while Percy talked to someone on an iris message.
I would find away to not be hidden.
I wouldn't hide for all eternity.
I would be known, like it or not.
