Endmyion quietly stood beside Diana, who still had her head down.
Athena shook her head. "Endmyion, Are you aware of what was done to you?"
He nodded."Eros's arrows....twice." He spoke up. "But really I'm ok with that, I have always like Diana...."
"That second arrow wouldn't have completely worked if you didn't. " Athena explaned. "His arrows, like his dimminshing powers are somewhat weakened, it takes a severe emotional shift for his arrows to work now. If he wasn't ordered to hit you, you would have still been in love Apollo."
Emdyion bit his lip lower lip. "But, I'm fine....I...I..." He hesitated.
"Emdmyion, your confused. I can see that quite clearly."
Diana looked up. "Eros, can you undo the second arrow?"
The winged god truned his head in her direction. "Are you sure Diana?"
"Yes...It's unfair, If Endmynion really does love me without your arrow....." she paused. "....I want to find out for myself."
With wide eyes Emdmyion truned to Diana holding her hand. "But I do love you, hadn't lastnight-"
"Lastnight was a sham." Her voice had gone flat.
((Isn't it great to have a goddess of wisdom to explane everything? ))

It took all Apolo had not to let every emotion warring inside him burst out, but he was shaking with the effort of it even though his face was calm. He keeps staring at the ground even with the conversation going on heatedly around him.
He finally says in a soft almost hoarse voice, "No... No, he's already been tampered with enough... Diana's dreamt of this so long and if it weren't for her, I never would have met him... And he loves her, just... Leave him be if he wants to be left alone...." He glances up at them all, unable to meet Endymion's eyes. Whether the emotions were from magic arrows or not, they were still what Endymion was feeling.

Diana snached her hand away from Endmyion, "I don't want him this way! It was Aphrodite's sick joke to play with us this way." tears where running down her face. "Eros, please, for true love.....please undo the arrow..." she bowed her head.
Eros looked startled. "I can't undo them....unless the recipeatent truly does want it undone." He truned his blind eyes towards Endmyion. "Do you want the arrow undone?"
"No."
Diana sniffed and slowly knelt before Endmyion. "Endmyion please." she looked up at him begging for him to understand."I was wrong to put you into that long sleep, and I was wrong to think that you'd genunely love me if Apollo wasn't in the way....I was wrong, and now, your just as trapped by a selfish spell as you where when you where sleeping." Diana was crying freely now. "How can I happy knowing that you haven't chosen me in the first place? I will die from sorrow with that knowologe."
At her last words Endmyion pulled Diana to him. "Diana.....But I do love you, I want to see you happy....Tell me, what would make you happy? Please tell me my love, and I'll do it for you."
She sniffed. "...allow Eros to undo the arrow."
He slowly nodded. "If....that's waht you want...." Endymion truned to Eros, still holding Diana. "Eros, I'm willing.....Please do it quick, I dpnt' wnat to see Diana cry anymore."
Eros came forwards and put his hand over The young God's heart. he tappe dhis finger just once and Endmyion collapsed, Diana reatched out and caught him.
"It is done...." Eros said, "I was going to undo the first arrow too....but it appears that he'd done it himself....curious." Then senceing distress from Diana he said. "He'll be out for awhile, having two arrows shot at him and having one pulled out is enough to make even a God pass-out."

Once Diana began to cry and beg, Apollo couldn't even pretend he was okay anymore. Silent tears fell single file down his cheeks, continuous and slow. He didn't interrupt through the whole thing, but seeing his sister this way, knowing he had been part of what caused her this pain. It was probably true. If he hadn't been there, Endymion would most likely have found and loved her first. And the way it was... Endymion wanted to love her, he wanted to stay that way.
He watches Endymion's arrow taken out and the young god slumping into Diana's arms and immediately rushed forward to help his support the weight. But at the time time, he hugged his sister tight, Endymion halfway in their embrace. He whispers softly, "Diana........... I don't understand.... Y-you won.... He was yours and you gave him up.... He loved you...... Oh gods.... I'm so sorry, Diana." He pulls back, wiping at the tears and using his powers to levitate Endymion's body up off the ground. He sighs softly, "Thank you, Eros... I'm sorry you had to go through so much trouble..."

"No, it's no trouble, I'm just glad I'm lett out every once in a while." Eros young face brightened. "I wanted to ask if I could stay with-"
Athena put a restraining hand on his shoulders. "No Eros, they have enough to worry about...you can come with me thought. The United States needs my guidence." She and Eros disspeared, as did Aphrodite.
Diana walked beside Apollo back to the campsight. She didnt' answer Apollo but kept her head down not wanting to look at her brother, after Endmyion was tucked inside the tent. Diana reverted back into a small black cat and snuggled beside Adel for comfort. The mortal boy was still asleep unawares of what had happened.

((Hey, for reference, are Adel, Endymion, and Diana in the same tent right now or did they put Endymion in the other separate tent?))
Apollo sighs softly as all the god before them vanish, feeling slightly comforted that at least young Eros wouldn't be manipulated by his mother any more and he knew that leaving him in Athena's hands was the safest option for the boy. Gods forbid he would come with them and get tangled as well into their webs.
He sits by the fire, watching his sister change back and disappear into the tent that Adel was in. He bows his head, praying lightly, "Sister. Calm, loving Diana... I pray that you have the strength that you need now, to keep you afloat when you feel like you are drowning. I pray that your heart may be eased from it's terrible ache, that you will find someone you love who loves you in return, whether it's Endymion or not. I also pray that I will become a better brother to you than I am. You deserve better." He sighs and retrieves his sleeping bag from his tent and drag it outside to rest it beside the fire. He slips inside, trying to push past the waves grief and guilt to try and sleep somewhat.

((Endmyion's in a diffent tent then from Adel.))
Later that morning, Adel sat up blinking. He found teh black kitty curled up next to him she was sleeping so he decided not to bothered her woundering how Selene had found them.
The boy crawled out of his tent and saw Apollo sleeping beside teh smordering remains of the fire. He stomache growled as he saw the somewhat still cold breackfast made nearby.

The soft crunch of snow and cracking of sticks and frozen grass beneath woke Apollo, who was sleeping very lightly anyways. He had tried to sleep to somehow erase the guilt he felt, but it hadn't helped, of course. He found, though, that he had a whole new appreciation for his sister because now he knew what it was like to lose the one he loved to someone else. He unzips half of his sleeping bag and sits up, looking drowsily across at Adel, "Oh... Good morning... I'll make some fresh breakfast... I think I only made that before to keep myself busy..." He gives the boy a small smile, yawning once more and pulling out the skillet to reheat the sausages he had fried, realizing it would be better to just start all over again with the eggs, "Did you sleep well?"

"Sure," Adel said, he wrapped himself warmly and sat by the rekindeled fire to warm up. It was reather cold this morning.
Later at noon, Endymion woke, still feeling somewhat out of it. he lay in the tent not wanting to face the world right now. He remebered everything including what the gods had said, every word.
I did like Diana....appearently enough to pull that arrow out....or was it that I didn't love her enough?" Sighing he cured up for a few moments before remebering that he still had to train for the up coming test.
Crawling out of teh tent, teh first thing Endmyion noticed was how cold it gott. Shivering he quickly grabed his jacket.

Apollo glances up as Endymion emerges and smiles a little, even if it was sadly. He couldn't quite put out of his mind the way Endymion had so insistantly wanted to keep the arrow in, that determined look he had on his face as etched into Apollo's memory. Adel had just finished eating, but the fire was warm again.
"Good morning... make sure to really bundle up, the clouds are threatening some heavy snow today... Do you want something to eat?"

"Yeah." Endmyion nodded and sat down beside Adel who was carving something out of a piece of wood. the fire's warmth chased away the chill.
"Apollo, how's Diana?"
(( I think I'll keep Diana in her cat-from for now. ))

Apollo beings to cook some food for Endymion, throwing most it all together in the same skillet. He looks across the fire at Endymion, almost totally lost in his own thoughts, "Well.... She's been better, but overall, I think she'll be alright... She's turned inwards now and I don't know when she's planning to leave her cat form.... It may be best to leave her alone for now.... But I don't think prayers would hurt. I've already prayed to her a few times this morning... And she'll probably be happy to see you just to see that you are ok... Here, I'll leave one of the sausages only slightly cooked for her. He removes one of the sausages from the pan and sets it aside on a plate, handing it to Endymion with a smile.

Edmyion smileda t him back, nodding in understanding. He took teh plate and opened the tent, "Diana?"
There was sleepy meow, a few moments later Endmyion came back, with the black cat held comfortably in his arms. Diana kept her eyes partly closed, but her mood was happier.
Teh young god wrapped himsefl in a blaket and still holding Diana ate his late lunch.

Apollo watches the small interaction between the two and even before they returned to the campfire, the sun god couldn't help but feel a genuine smile spread over his face. Jealousy, anger, hurt... it was all gone. Once he truly understood what Diana was going through and what she was willing to sacrifice, everything seemed to change in his mind. The only hurt that remained was his own guilt that he felt over his actions over the past couple of days.
He smiles across at them and when Endymion was nearly finished with his food, he says in a soft voice, "I hate to bring it up, but you still have training today, Dymion... But we'll begin whenever you're ready..." His gaze drifts to Diana and his mental voice was as soft as his physical one, "Hey... It's good to see you here... Are you okay?"

Endmyion gace Apollo a weary look, he still wasn't feeling to well but he nodded."I'll be ready in a moment." he says finishing up his lunch
Diana gave Apollo a soft meow, raiseing her head from Endmyion's arm. She let Dmyion handle her as he handed the black cat to Adel. "here, you'll have to hold her she's...not feeling well today."
"Aw....poor kitty, " Adel cuddled the cat close. "Will she be ok? He asked worriedly."
Diana let out a reasuring purr, and snuggled close to the boy's warmth.
