Third Person POV:

An hour after Chaos announced Amber being the new guardian of the hunt, Artemis and Zoe flashed back into the camp to see scorch marks on the ground near the camp fire. Shrugging it off the two walked into Artemis' tent to see Amber standing smugly with the shield on her arm.

Amber bowed to Artemis who was seething with anger. Zoe narrowed her eyes at Amber and let out a growl.

"What in Chaos' name do you think you're doing?" Artemis said in a barely controlled rage

"Waiting for you lady Artemis, I would like to report that I kicked a hunter out of the hunt for breaking their oath of refusing the company of men. She had dark red hair, and a glowing feather in her hair" Amber said proudly

"YOU KICKED HEATHER OUT!!!" Zoe exploded in outrage as she charged Amber, her hunting knives in her hands "I WILL KILL YOU!"

Zoe reached Amber and swung her knives across the new guardian's chest. Amber tried to block with the shield but for some reason, it refused to intercept the strike, forcing Amber to jump back.

"Zoe! Enough!" Artemis commanded and Zoe stopped her assault and returned to Artemis' side "You will replace that shield where you got it, you will not touch that shield, it is not yours" Artemis deadpanned but Amber smiled smugly

"I am sorry Arty but I need all the gear required to be your guardian" Amber said as the shield pulsed and Amber gained a pained expression "Besides, this shield is too beautiful to put down" she said although the look on her face said that the shield didn't feel at all comfortable on her arm

"DON'T CALL ME ARTY!!!" Artemis growled and her eyes pulsed with an unknown power causing Amber to nod quickly and shrink back "Zoe gather the hunt, were moving to Camp Half Blood, Perseus has gone missing in the Labyrinth and Dionysus believes there will be an attack on the camp" Zoe nodded before she ran out of the tent, then Artemis turned to Amber "You will learn your place quickly, first, you are NOT my guardian, you never will be. Second, Heather is under an altered oath, she is able to date one male as long as that male does not break her heart. Third, that male that you apparently threatened was Phoenix, guardian of the hearth, and known as the Hearth's Rage, don't piss him off. And finally, if I ever see you misusing that shield for ANYTHING except defending others I will rip your arm off and take that shield back. It is not meant to protect for selfish reasons, only for selfless reasons. Understand?" Artemis said coldly and Amber nodded "Good, now get ready were heading to Camp Half Blood" Artemis said before she walked out of the tent

"What have I gotten myself into?" Amber muttered under her breath as she followed Artemis "I'm sure I'll be fine, I am the best after all"

(The quest started and the quest has Annabeth, Nico, Luke, Grover, and Tyson (yes, I know it was supposed to be only 4 but there is a method to my madness. To make life simpler, Tyson and Grover already split up before they made it to Briares)

Luke's POV:

I look around and notice we were in what looked like a prison. I heard what sounded like a large person crying and a very scary and hoarse voice.

"Your pathetic and weak, why don't you fade like your brothers you, big pathetic oaf" the scary voice said right before the sound of a whip cracked through the air and the crying voice hissed in pain

I looked over at Annabeth to see her eyes wide in amazement at where we were. I frowned then shook her to snap her back to reality.

"Annabeth, where are we?" I whispered to her and she and Nico look at me
