"That's what I was afraid of." Casey sighed as she took down another dog headed man. If it wasn't a new enemy it was an old enemy, and old enemies were more dangerous.

Luna couldn't think of any of the huntresses enemies that had access to magic or anything that could conjure up dog headed men like this. She continued shooting the monsters and suddenly felt a throbbing pain in her shoulder. She looked at it and saw a red arrow sticking through her shoulder blade, a blood stain getting bigger and bigger as the blood soaked her shirt. She turned around and saw Cupid smiling evilly. She turned back and said one sentence to Casey before she passed out and fell to the ground. Cupid has brought hate upon us.

After Luna had passed out, Casey turned around. "What did you do?" This was not her fight, Phoebe. You know that. Her wound is not serious. "Where did these things come from?" An evil mistress. Things stirred when Gaea woke, Phoebe. They have been plotting revemnge, and after longnyears of preparation they are ready to start a war like never before. A total apocalypse, Phoebe. It has begun. Just then, the last monster was killed, and Cupid disappeared. Mira and other mostly unharmed Huntresses got the wounded Huntresses to medicine tents and started tending them, Mira and Casey using magic to heal Luna and wake her up.

"Cupid.....red arrow...." Luna mumbled as she sat up. "When I get my hands on him, he's gonna regret ever learning archery." She growled, punching her fist into her palm. She stood up and rubbed her shoulder. "Is everyone ok?" She asked the two huntresses.

"Yeah... But... There's something you need to hear." Casey retold every detail of what Cupid said to her.

"It all makes sense now. That's why Cupid has been watching Mira. He thinks she can stop the apocalypse." Luna said as they walked back into the tent. She changed her shirt and put the blood stained one in a plastic bag. "Quinn!" The girl rushed inside. "Have one of the girls throw this away for me. See that everyone recieves the medical attention they need and make sure everyone gets fed." The girl nodded and took the bag before leaving the 3 girls alone to talk.

"But... We have to figure out everything. Who the mistress is, why she hates demigods, etc. etc. We've gotten rid of Gaea , what else is there?" Just then a Huntress - Hannah - limped into the tent. "Luna, the baby's safe. But I passed by a grocery store on the way here and the news... On every channel there was a warning. 'In every US state, a handful of people have been revolting and speaking nonsense about gods and demigpods. Most of them have been put in lunatic asylums, but -especially in New York- the numbers are staggering.'"

"Oh my gods. We have to get to Camp Half Blood and warn Chiron and Mr. D. Hannah, go rest, and tell Hazel and Mia to pack up their stuff so they can go ahead of us and warn the camp. I need to call in a friend. Casey.....you're in charge." Luna left the tent and ran into the forest. She threw some water into the air and tossed a drachma in, muttering the words for an Iris message. "Reggie. Get your goat butt over to Tennessee, now. The huntresses need you. Yes, I know you're a boy, but you're the only one who has dealt with this kind of thing before.....and.....bring Sam. I need him here too." She ended the Iris message and sat on a rock. "Artemis, please forgive me for calling boys, but this is unlike anything we've dealt with before, and Reggie and my brother can help."

"-the Mist." Casey finished her sentence when Luna came back with the two boys. She raised her eyebrows. "I'm assuming they have permission to be here? I was just telling Mira that the the only reasonable answer was a disturbance in the Mist."

Luna looked a lot better and she nodded. "Yeah. Reggie,....Sam, this is Casey and Mira. Case, Mira, this is my satyr guardian, Reggie...... and my brother....Sam."

Casey peered at Sam. "You look a lot like Luna did about ten years ago. And Reggie... I remember you as well. Anyway, Luna... No one could cause a disturbance quite that big except ... A goddess." She glanceds at Mira. "Any weird sort of signs from your mom lately?"

"My mom? Artemis isn't my mom. Sam and I still don't know who our mom even is. She never claimed us. I don't know if it's because we were born and raised in Ireland. Plus, Artemis can't have kids, she's the patron of virgin girls and women."Luna said, confused at Casey's question. "But you knew that I didn't know who my mom was when I became a huntress."

"I was talking to Mira." Casey said quickly. Mira nodded slowly. "Yeah. Well... I have heard something. She said that a goddess would always hate the children of Hera and that the time was coming. I didn't understand it, but I woke up before I could ask her more."

"But....Hera can't have children either. She's the goddess of marriage and she's loyal to Zeus. She doesn't interact with other men. Hers and Artemis' cabins at Camp Half Blood are just honorary. Hera's only children are Ares and Hephaestus. So it might be their kids...but...i don't know."

"Who does?" Mira shrugged helplessly. "I personally think that we should get back to Camp as soon as possible. Chiron and Mr. D need to hear about this, and the sooner the better. And maybe Rachel's had a prophecy. We need to consult the Oracle, at any rate. And we have to get to Camp. Don't ask me why." Mira left the tent, but it was clear that she hadn't revealed her whole talk with Hecate.
