Azule's POV

I smiled at Casey and Kaius, they were upset, but I couldn't do anything about it. I wasn't their guardian anymore, but their Uncle.

Annabeth was trying to get them to cut down on the sugar they consumed. They didn't like that one bit, and ran to me.

Now I was in the middle of Annabeth and the Twins, in the ever going battle of 'give me the cookies.'

"You can't have cookies every single day and night!" Annabeth said, clearly trying he best to be a Mom.

They blew raspberries her way, and ate more cookies. "You can't tell us what to do! Azule always let us have one cookie when ever we were good for the day. Always after dinner!" Casey says looking like her mom in that moment.

I laughed awkwardly. I didn't really want to be in this situation. "I did...when you guys were under my care." I said.

"Can we bed under your care again?" Kaius asks tightening his hold on my shirt.

I looked to see Annabeth looking hurt. I bent down to the twins height. "Look, she's your Mom, you wouldn't have ever had her here with you now if this whole mess wasn't happening, so you better listen to her, and treasure all the moments you get to make with her, you got it?" I told them sternly.

They pouted ate another cookie and left.

"They really love you..." Annabeth says looking to the ground.

I came up to her and hugged her. "I'll give you some pointers, your still new to the whole Mom thing. Your lucky you didn't have to change their diapers." I told her making her laugh. "Come on, let's talk, like the old days."

I looked over the plans in my cabin, there was a possible base that was holding more minor gods, the muses and Persephone and Hades other kids. And Zeus and Hera, with their kids as well.

I rubbed my forehead as I came back to the arguing group of people at large before me.

"Okay...." I said and everyone paused to look at me confused. "We'll be checking this place out. Tonight. Secret espionage mission, the seven, the Avengers and the hunters all together to sneak in and do this quietly and quickly. Do you all understand?" I asked all the gods, and cabins leaders. The seven. The hunters and the Avengers.

They all nodded, stopping the arguing that had given me a headache.

"Go get ready." I said and they all left.

Loki came up to me. "This base is extremely close, unlike the others."

"I know. I think they're being a bit cocky now." I said looking down at the pictures of monsters, few but still in numbers taking rounds at watching their area.

"Extremely." Loki said looking out at the still morning sky.

"Loki....something bads going to happen. I can feel it." I said holding myself.

Loki noticed this and pulled me into a hug of his. "I can too."

We were silent, enjoying the calm peace.

"I love you..." I told him out of the blue, just wanting to say it before, just in case.

And it was true, I had fallen in love with the God the past couple months, even if we haven't gone on a date. We still seemed to have grown closer and closer, to the point I knew that I was in love with a trickster.

Loki pulled back to look me in the eyes, surprised at me. "I...you do?" He asked searching for lies.

I smiled. Leaned up and kissed his lips gently before pulling away. "Yes I really do."

Loki then kissed me a bit more passionately. "I love you as well my butterfly."

I smiled into that and we kissed which soon led to something more in the bedroom.

********

We finally made it to the outside of the base watching quietly, looking for ins when Leo came over holding a grumbling Maria.

"Found her following us." Leo whispers and puts Maria in front of me.

I got a bit angry at her. "Maria....I told you to watch over the twins." I said disappointed.

"I wanted to come..." She said looking away.

I sighed, can't bring her back now anyway. "Stay close." I said sternly to her. "Stay quiet."

She nodded getting excited.

We soon took care of the monsters on the outside before going in and splitting up in teams of 5 and looking and destroying monsters while also keeping an eyes out for who we came for.

Maria stayed close to me, a two of the hunters of Artemis were with me, with Leo and Thalia, who was getting admired looks from the hunters as she was holding her bow with ease, and professionaly. Leo just rolled his eyes at that.

We entered a hallway of sorts with cells on either side. The first one held Jason, both the old and the modern Thalia was quicker then any of us to get there.

Maria stayed close to me as we looked and indeed in each one there were the missing others. Hazel, Bianca, and sadly Hitler, but it seemed he was still in ghost form. Leo was onto getting them out when Maria whimpered and hugged my leg and I looked in the direction of some snake lady thing who was glaring at us with a smirk, showing her disgusting teeth.

But, the reason I quickly disposed of the woman, was cause she was giving Maria a look I didn't appreciate.

Whoot, done!

Facts- Azule had a Unicorn Pegasus mix, her name was Heela, she died in the war with Gaea after saving him from a larger than the other giants, giant.

Sad yes, and a rare creature she was, the Unicorns never were spotted after that. After all Heela was like a god to them, like Poseidon.

See ya later!
