"Now I know why you don't want to leave her" Lucien stated, glancing at the unconscious Artemis.

Does he has an interest on her?

"Back off man" Percy turned to him with a snarl. "She's not for you"

"Dude relax" Lucien grinned, throwing his hands in surrender. "She's not my type. I'm different race remember? We hate gods."

Percy didn't say. He just glanced back at the goddess that he had dear too much. She was breathing hard, sweats soaked her skin like she just had a shower. Her weak breathe came out uneven like something had stopped her respiratory system. Percy stroke her cheek with his finger, her hand still held tightly on his as if she was afraid he would leave again. The arrow vibrated every time her chest rises.

"We gotta do something" Percy said.

"Do what" Lucien asked, shoving his hands in his pocket. "I'm not a healer."

"Percy...perc..."

She kept saying his name, though her eyes still closed with her consciousness. Percy held tight on her, a brick of tear threatened to fall.

"I won't let her die Lucien" Percy glanced at his friend, who looked back with everything but sympathy.

"She brought the Olympians here Perseus" He said. "How many times does it take for you to understand that she's a timing bomb."

Percy glanced at the pile of dust, the remain of a hunger called Orion. He still perfectly remembered everything in the transformation. Usually he wouldn't know a single detail. He remembered that terrified look on Orion face as two claws slashed at him, how Percy snatched Orion head out from his neck and watched him crumble to dust.

"I love her Lucien" Percy admitted. "She gave me the power to control myself. I wouldn't have if it wasn't for her."

Lucien snorted. "Then perhaps now you should spend your last moment to say your goodbye to her."

"How could you say such a word" Percy snapped.

"It is true Perseus" Lucien responded with equally tone. "She's nothing but a burden. If she dies then there's nothing between you and your return to our people. Isn't it a win win? She dies, you come back to us and live happily ever after amongst your race."

Percy rose as he bellowed and held Lucien collar shirt, lifting him off the ground as he bared his teeth.

"Is it your heart that cold" Percy bared his teeth, hissed at the sight of his cold blooded friend. "Why can't ease the hatred towards her? What's she done to you?"
