“What are you talking about?” M’gann asked
”The Artemis I know and love has auburn hair, looks my age, has eyes that way to old for her body, would never willingly be around this many boys, has a bow shaped like silver gazelle horns and a magic quiver!” I exclaimed
When none of them said anything I realized that I just totally gave up my little secret.
”I mean cool name” I said cautiously
“You just described the Artemis of Greek myth” Kalder said quietly
”I…uh…yeah… there’s something you guys need to know about me” I confessed
” When I got my Hep. B shot this year it turned out I got something more than just medicine injected in me: I got the blood of the gods Hades, Poseidon, Aphrodite, Artemis, Apollo, Athena and Ares. So now I have unnatural powers” I told them
And they all started to laugh. Loudly.
”What? It’s true!” I exclaimed
”Prove it” said Kid Flash
”Ok. You, Archer girl, please stand at the water line and when I give you a thumbs up shoot then hit the deck” I instructed
”Ok” she agreed
”I’m guuna combine 2 gods powers for a sec: Hades and Artemis” I explained
I opened my shadow purse and pulled out my gold and purple Bow and quiver and notched a arrow.
”Fire away archer!” I yelled across the beach and gave thumbs up
As the archer shot her arrow I brought my bow up and aimed directly for the arrow. Then I released the draw string. My arrow of gold went straight through her green mechanical arrow.
”Woah” was Kid Flash’s only comment
”That shot was AWESOME” Artemis said
”Thanks and sorry about calling you a liar” I apologized
”No problem. Hey what else can you do?” she asked
And with that a chorus of questions suddenly surrounded me. It was so much I couldn’t handle it. I made a shadow tunnel (something Hades himself taught me) and appeared 20 meters out from shore on top of the water. I made a water dome by pulling up my hands like I was pulling a blanket over my head in each direction. I solidified it and sat in the middle and started to meditate.
