Hey! So this is my first story I've written. So please no flames, although constructive criticism is always welcomed.

Also, this story has major LGBT themes and mild sexual situations, so if you are uncomfortable with that heres your warning. Plus, this is Pro-Hera. I wanted to portray Hera differently than most writers. So no haters or rants about how she is the worst goddess.

Disclaimer: I do not own PJO or HoO. I am not Rick Riordan. So no lawsuits please.

Enjoy~

It was a fairly normal dinner for the demigods of Camp Half-Blood. Well, unless you count learning about the impending war with Camp Jupiter, Gaia awakening, and the Giants waging war on Olympus….. Never mind it was a depressing dinner.

Campers solemnly picked at their food, not really feeling great enough to eat. They knew another war was fast approaching. They also knew their chances of winning this one. Let's just say they weren't optimistic.

After ten minutes Chiron stomped his hoof three times against the marble floor and opened his mouth to speak, "Campers! Tomorrow we sha-"

A burst of white light suddenly blinded the campers and everyone was forced to look away as the light spread around the pavilion. When the light finally died down, campers turned and gasped as the realization of what the light had transported here kicked in.

Clarisse stood up; gripping her sword hand so tight her knuckles turned an ashy white. Her eyes narrowed as she growled at the intruders, "Romans."

The whole camp was deadly quiet, the Roman demigods slowly got over their shock. Octavian screamed out, "Greeks right there! I was right! You see soldiers of Rome? They destroy OUR city, yet carry on with their lives as if they did no wrong!"

The roman demigods drew their weapons, glaring at the Greek demigods with fierce hatred. Chiron turned pale his eyes darting back and forth between the two groups. He licked his lips nervously, "Now children, there is no need to fight. We did not fire on your camp."

"Lies!" Octavian pushed himself to the front of the roman mass. "I saw it myself! Leo Valdez fired upon our city with your warship! The blame lies with you Greeks!"

A roar of approval rose up within the romans. The Greeks snapped out of their shock, realizing the romans were standing right in front of them; they drew their weapons ready to defend themselves. Malcolm, the current counselor of Cabin Six spoke up. "Listen romans. Leo was possessed by an eidolon. Gaia sent the eidolon to turn us against each other. You're playing right into her hands!"

The Greeks quickly voiced their agreement, and a ripple of uneasiness spread throughout the legion as the smarter demigods considered the revelation. However, before anyone could challenge Malcolm's proclamation a loud crack of thunder broke through the sky, and the demigods were now aware of the gods standing among them. But it wasn't just the Olympians, minor gods and goddess also stood there.

Immediately, the demigods all bowed. Zeus waved his hand dismissing them, "Please stand. Now can someone tell us what we're doing here?"

Reyna rose and hesitantly asked, "My Lord, you mean you didn't summon us to this camp?"

Dionysus snorted, "Of course not! We know better than to allow the two groups to mingle. Unlike a certain goddess."

Hera growled, "Watch who your insulting Dionysus. Don't want to anger the wrong deity do you?"

Dionysus huffed and rolled his eyes, while the demigods watched with wide eyes.

Reyna knitted her eyebrows together a look of confusion passing through her eyes, "Then who-"

Before she could finish the sentence the sea exploded, the earth shook, and a tornado funnel formed around the assembled crowd.

The Olympians tried to maintain order and calm the demigods, but soon everything went dark. When everyone came to they were sitting in the amphitheater Greeks to one half; romans to the other, and to everybody's amazement the hunters were also sitting in the first two rows. The gods all had thrones arranged in a crescent along the front of the audience, so that they were facing the demigods.

Thalia immediately stood up, "What's going on? How did we get here? Why are romans and the gods here?"

Zeus looked muddled, "What? I don't-"

Abruptly, he was cut off by a loud clashing sound and eight demigods and 1 satyr being dropped from the sky as they screamed and cursed. Athena snapped her fingers and they stopped falling a foot off the ground. Standing up they dusted themselves off and looked around at the gathered mass of people.

Demigods gasped when they saw how beaten they looked. Thalia immediately ran toward them, "Jason! Annabeth! Percy!"

Thalia tackled them in a great big hug, crying from relief. "Oh, I'm so glad your all safe!"

They looked confused, tired, and beat up. Percy and Annabeth were pale and sickly looking; gashes, cuts, and bruises covered their bodies. While the others, did look better, but it was clear they'd all been through hell.

Percy blinked, "Umm… What are we doing here?"

The Hunters, gods, and demigods looked up, "We are about as clueless as you are."

Iris stood up, a note in her hand, and began to speak, "My Lord, this note appeared with me. It's addressed to all of us."

Zeus nodded, "Very well. Please read it."

Iris opened the envelope and prepared to read. However, a scream cut through the amphitheater. Immediately, all heads turned towards the Queen of the Gods. Her eyes were clenched closed; her hand positioned over her heart. She collapsed in her seat, and fell to the ground; while she sobbed from the pain.

The two sitting on either side of her, Zeus and Demeter, lunged at her. Grabbing her arms, they repositioned her on the ground, so that she was now lying flat on her back. Apollo raced to her side, and helped her sit up so she could breathe easier. "Step-mother, what's wrong?"

She coughed, causing ichor to spill out of her mouth, and gestured to her chest, "My heart feels like it's about to explode!"

Apollo nodded his head before placing a hand over her eyes and muttering an incantation. Her eyes closed, and the Sun god quickly healed the damage to the goddesses' heart. Gently picking her up, he handed the sleeping woman to Argus, and then instructed him to take her to the infirmary.

Turning back to his fellow immortals, Zeus demanded an explanation. "What happened to my wife!?"

Apollo shook his head, "I don't know. Her heart had severe damage to it, but whatever caused it could not be located."

Zeus sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, "Will she be alright?"

"Yes, but I recommend we let her rest a few hours."

"Alright then." He turned to Iris, "Please continue with the note."

Iris reluctantly read, yet it was clear she wanted to hear more of the Queens' sudden illness.

Dear gathered audience,

It has come to our attention that most of you hate a certain goddess. Still, she is a major part of the Sevens' success in defeating Gaea. So, we have brought you all here to read about her. The story will explain the recent event you all witnessed and much more. Now, we ask that all councilors, centurions, praetors, and the Seven (plus guests) to introduce yourselves. No killing or serious harm shall come to anyone, and do be conscious that we may send more people.

Sincerely,

Rhea and the Fates.

It was deadly quiet. Well, not for long.

"What! The fates! How can this be?"

"I thought we weren't supposed to do these sorts of things!"

"Unbelievable!"

"Never in my lif-"

"SILENCE!"

All eyes turned to look at the King of Olympus. He was thinking hard; his grey eyes stormy and thoughtful. Yet an undertone of worry was clear, "We will follow the Fates' instructions, and read about whoever this goddess is. Now councilors, centurions, praetors, and the Seven: Introduce yourselves.

A brunette with hazel eyes stood up, while Demeter smiled at her. "Katie Gardner. Daughter of Demeter and Councilor of Cabin Four."

A muscular girl stood up next, while Ares smirked. "Clarisse La Rue. Daughter of Ares, Drakon slayer and Councilor of Cabin Five."

Next, a blond boy with grey eyes rose from his seat. "Malcolm. Son of Athena and Temporary Councilor of Cabin Six."

Athena beamed at her son, while another demigod rose, "Will Solace. Son of Apollo and Councilor of Cabin Seven."

Apollo grinned, blinding everyone within a ten foot radius. At least until Artemis smacked him upside the head. Then a buff looking dark haired girl stood up; a bandana wrapped around her head. "Nyssa. Daughter of Hephaestus and Temporary Councilor of Cabin 9."

Hephaestus looked at his daughter, a flicker of pride flashed in his eyes.

"Mitchell. Son of Aphrodite and Temporary Councilor for Cabin Ten."

Aphrodite squealed, while the other gods and goddesses rolled their eyes. Meanwhile, two mischievous looking boys stood up and bowed.

"Travis-"

"And Conner Stoll-"

"Sons of Hermes and Co-councilors of Cabin Eleven." They grinned at their father who looked proudly at his sons.

Another boy with blond hair and violet eyes stood up, causing Dionysus to peek over his magazine. "Pollux. Son of Dionysus and Councilor of Cabin Twelve."

Dionysus turned his attention back to his magazine, however if you looked close enough you would detect the faint trace of a smile on his face.

After Pollux's introduction, a muscular boy walked forward, "Butch. Son of Iris and Councilor of Cabin Fourteen."

Iris looked curiously at her son, while Leo snickered about 'rainbows and ponies' until Piper elbowed him in the ribs.

A tired looking boy stood up. He blinked and swayed trying to stay awake. "Clovis. Son of Hypnos and Councilor of Cabin Fifth teen."

Hypnos snorted awake on his throne, lazily looking at his son before once again falling asleep. The siblings of the god looked curiously at their nephew, while Morpheus smiled at his little brother and other half-blood siblings.

The other cabins continued their councilor introduction up until Hecate's' cabin. "Lou Ellen. Daughter of Hecate and Councilor of Cabin Twenty."

Hecate smirked at her daughter while Hecuba sat by the goddesses' feet. The other children of Nyx looked at their nieces and nephews with interest.

Zeus cleared his throat, "Now that we have the councilors done." His form flicker to Jupiter, "Centurions! Introduce yourselves!"

Octavian strutted forward. "Octavian. Legacy of Apollo, Augur, and Centurion of the First Cohort."

Apollo flashed the peace sign at his great-grandson, before turning on his iPod.

"Larry. Legacy of Vulcan and Centurion of the Second Cohort."

"Hank. Legacy of Mars and Centurion of the Third Cohort."

A boy with lips stained red waltzed forward. "Dakota. Son of Bacchus and Centurion of the Fifth Cohort."

Dionysus once again looked over the edge of his magazine, before turning the page and muttering to himself.

A pretty girl with blond hair stood up, "Gwendolyn. Daughter of Venus and Centurion of the Fifth Cohort."

Aphrodite squealed, beaming at her daughter. While everyone else groaned and covered their ears.

"It would be nice if you didn't cause us to go deaf Aphrodite!" Artemis snapped at the goddess. But, Aphrodite only smirked.

"Funny, since you didn't seem to mind screaming last night."

Artemis grabbed her bow, Apollo abruptly pulled off his ear buds, the Hunters looked like someone kicked their puppy, and everyone else stared wide eyed at the two women.

"You wish skank."

"Yes, but you fantasize."

"OKAY ENOUGH!" Athena rubbed her temples. "There are children here!"

Aphrodite leaned back in her throne, while Artemis muttered threats. Zeus shook his head, trying to get the images out of his head before turning to the Seven, "Introduce yourselves."

A tall, blond, and chiseled boy walked forward. "Jason Grace. Son of Jupiter, Champion of Juno, and One of Seven."

Zeus cracked a smile, while Thalia grinned at her little brother. Other demigods looked on with respect.

Next, a familiar looking black haired troublemaker stepped forward. Nearly all demigods smiled as soon as they saw him. "Percy Jackson. Son of Poseidon, Hero of the Great Prophecy, Savior of Olympus, Praetor of the Twelfth Legion, and One of Seven."

Poseidon looked on proudly; a loving smile appeared on his face. The Greek demigods broke into cheers; happy to have their leader back. Eventually, everyone quieted down, and Percy stepped back.

An elfish looking Latino stepped forward. Most roman demigods glared as soon as they saw him, but he just grinned. "Leo Valdez. Son of Hephaestus, Captain of the Argo ll, and One of Seven."

Hephaestus nodded at his son, while his siblings cheered.

Next, a tall muscular Chinese guy stood up. Immediately a wave of confusion crashed into the roman demigods, while Hazel grinned. "Frank Zhang. Son of Mars, Praetor of the Twelfth Legion, and One of Seven."

As soon as the words left his mouth, an uproar arose from within the roman ranks.

"What!?"

"Impossible!"

"Never in my life!"

"Quiet!"

Everyone turned to face Jason. He stood tall against the questioning and somewhat hostile stares. "I stepped down from my rank of Praetor and awarded Frank Zhang the position."

Gwen and Dakota smiled, while the other roman uneasily took in the news. Ten minutes later, the introductions were ready to continue.

A tall blond girl stood up, her grey eyes flashing. "Annabeth Chase. Daughter of Athena, Architect of Olympus, Heroine of Olympus, and One of Seven."

Athena smiled proudly, and the Greek demigods cheered for their other leader. Poseidon looked between his son and Annabeth; noting the loving gazes passed between them.

Next, a pretty girl who looked Native American walked forward. "Piper McLean. Daughter of Aphrodite and One of Seven."

Aphrodite squealed. Again. But this time Artemis knew better than to comment. Instead, she 'nonchalantly' began cleaning her arrows.

After that a young African-American with golden eyes and cinnamon brown hair stood up. "Hazel Levesque. Daughter of Pluto and One of Seven."

Hades momentarily moved between personas, but nonetheless he grinned at her proudly.

A pale boy with dark clothes and a world war two aviator jacket stepped forward. "Nico Di Angelo. Son of Hades, Ambassador of Pluto, and Ghost King."

Hades smirked at his son.

Lastly, an aggressive looking satyr clomped forward. "Gleeson Hedge. Satyr and Protector."

Grover nodded at him, while Clarisse grinned wickedly at her former protector.

Hestia spoke up, "Okay, now that everyone's' been introduced; who knows what story we are supposed to read?"

To answer her question a book fell from the sky, and landed on Hera's empty throne.

Hestia picked it up, "It doesn't have a title. Only a warning."

"What does the warning say?" Hermes asked.

"This biography contains some sexual innuendos and mild sexual situations. It contains strong LGBT themes. And is written in mostly first person point of view. If you have any problems with these... Deal With It."

Snickers rang throughout the Amphitheater, and everyone looked around to see if anyone was going to have problems with the mentioned content. Yet, no seemed to have a problem with it. So, it was decided to continue reading.

"Does anyone one object to me reading first?" Hestia asked; raising the book above her head for everyone to see.

After no objections arose from anyone, she opened the book and blinked. "Its about Hera."

Shocked silence occured, but most quickly got over it. Hermes and Apollo were giggling about blackmail, Hera's children looked up intrested, Zeus sunk in his seat, while most demigods showed emotions ranging from digust to excitment. After everyone calmed down Hestia began.

Chapter One

I'm having a bad day.

"That's shocking."

"Travis shut up!"

"Sorry Katie."

Why? Well, Zeus (my husband) once again has been caught red-handed during one of his little 'dates.'

"Thats not surprising." Poseidon said.

Zeus glared, "Look who's talking."

Hades rolled his eyes, "Your both players. Accept it."

Zeus and Poseidon glared at their older brother.

Hestia quickly continued.

And to make matters worse it was in my bed, in my room, in my palace.

Zeus blushed, while his children gagged.

Yep, I'm gonna have to burn my sheets.

Everyone broke into laughter, Hermes and Apollo even fell off their thrones.

Not to mention this is the third time this YEAR I've caught him. Seriously, I'm sick of it. Of him.

Zeus looked down sadly.

I'm just so done with this. Every time this happens, every time he cheats and sires another child it kills me.

Thalia and Annabeth rolled their eyes, "Only because it ruins her chance for a perfect family."

Jason shifted uneasily, but most demigods nodded in agreement with their words.

The gods stayed quiet. Watching their children interact.

Mostly because I am the one who gets blamed for every little hardship his kid comes across.

"Isn't because she causes most of them?"

Oh no! Mini-Zeus stubbed his toe! Must've been Hera! Mini-Zeus got lost! Must be Hera!

Some giggled.

Ugh! Gosh, it gets me so mad! Especially since I rarely interfere. I mean believe me when I say, I don't hate his children. Its just hard for me to get used to them sometimes, since I am the Goddess of Marriage.

All of Zeus's illegitimate children looked uneasily at each other.

But most of them are rather pleasant to be around. Or at least I've heard. Since they basically all hate me.

Now they looked a bit guilty. Others processed the new information.

I don't know. I thought it would be different now. I thought with the oath in place; he wouldn't stray. But yet again, trust Zeus to find a loop hole. Mortals are off-limits... nymphs and goddesses not so much.

"Well Zeus wasn't the only one to figure that out," Percy stated. "Dad had Tyson with a nature spirit."

Everyone looked at the Lord of the Seas. He blushed and fidgeted on his throne.

Hebe, Eileithyia, and Enyo glared at their father.

Anyway, I guess that pretty much explains why I'm now in a bar, trying to get drunk.

Dionysus cleared his throat; flipping a page in his magazine.

Emphasis on trying.

"True," Apollo said. "It takes more for gods to get drunk on mortal drinks."

"Stupid husband. Stupid cheater. Stupid marriage." I grumbled; simultaneously downing my eighth shot. Lysander sat by my feet, gently brushing his head against my legs in a comforting manor.

"Lysander, thats her immortal peacock isn't it?" Annabeth asked.

"Yes, she adores that bird." Zeus replied; avoiding his daughters' glares.

"You don't sound happy." A female voice chirped from beside me.

"Who talked to her?"

"Thats what we're going to find out Connor!"

Startled, I jumped nearly ten feet in the air and dropped my shot glass before turning to face the young brunette sliding into the seat next to mine.

"Well at least we know she has brown hair."

"Connor!" Lou Ellen complained.

Hermes smiled proudly.

She was pretty, gorgeous even, with curly hair, hazel eyes, and a friendly smile.

Aphrodite squealed, while Zeus scowled.

She made herself comfortable, before looking at me and grinned. Blinking, my godliness abruptly kicked in and I was assaulted by her information.

"Did she just say Godliness?"

"The rules of grammer don't apply to her."

Name: Susan Holt Age: 21 Occupation: Veterinarian Technician Family: Deceased Home: Fresno, CA Status: Virgin

"You guys can tell if someones' still a virgin?"

The immortals with kids looked pointedly at their children, "Yes."

About 1/3 of the campers looked embarrassed.

Apparently, I looked a bit stupid. She giggled, "Do you always act so shocked whenever someone talks to you?"

"Does she?"

"Oh my gods," Lou Ellen pulled at her hair. "Connor I'm going to murder you."

Aphrodite shared looks with her children.

I smirked, "Only when it involves a pretty lady."

The love goddess squealed, Zeus growled, and others stared at the book.

"Wait," Dakota asked. "Is Queen Hera bisexual?"

"Yes," Aphrodite answered still bouncing in her seat. "Most gods are."

The demigods looked at the gods and goddesses, who nodded in agreement with the love goddess.

'Alright,' most thought. 'I can accept that.'

She blushed and looked away, while I smiled; a smug feeling washed over me, 'Still got it.'

A lot of people laughed.

After she got that blush under control, she turned to me. "Well, someones a smartaleck aren't they?"

"She is."

I couldn't help but grin, "Only when it comes to pretty ladies ma'am."

Aphrodite and her demigod children, both greek and roman, squealed.

Others groaned and covered their ears.

Artemis glared.

She huffed and signaled for a bartender, all while watching me out of the corner of her eye. "Bartender! Two shots over here!"

I raised my eyebrows, "I wouldn't drink those if I were you. This isn't exactly a 'safe' bar to drink at."

"Aww, she cares."

She smirked and pointed at the many empty glasses surrounding me, "Hypocrite."

"Hera is one of the only gods who never seems to get drunk," Nemesis shrugged. "She can hold her liquor."

I shrugged. "I'm immune."

"Thats true. 'Date Rape' drugs don't affect us. But it truly sad mortals have to worry about that." Athena commented.

"That is true," Piper crossed her arms. "Date Rape drugs are horrible, but people who actually use them are even worse."

All the females voiced their agreement, while the boys wisely kept quiet. Since, girls were usually targeted and not boys.

After a few minutes things calmed down and Hestia continued.

I could tell she didn't believe me, but she let it go.

"This mortals perspective."

Grabbing the shots from the bartender; she handed me one. "Payment for the drink I made you drop."

Nemesis and her children made a sound of approval.

Thanking her, I clinked my glass against hers before downing the drink; the alcohol created a pleasant burning sensation as it trickled down my throat.

Dionysus sighed.

Setting the glass back down, I introduced myself. "I'm Hera Olympia."

Travis and Connor snickered, "Really? Hera Olympia."

The gods shrugged, "Thats everyones' cover name."

"Olympia?"

"Hey! It works doesn't it?"

She raised an eyebrow, "Thats an interesting name. I'm Susan Holt."

I laughed, "I moved here from Greece a few years ago. My parents were big on Greek mythology."

"Well, thats one way to put it." Leo said; fiddling with a Wii remote.

"Thats cool."

I looked at her curiously. "So what egged you on to approach me out of the blue."

"Thats what we all want to know."

Susan pointed at my feet, "Well I wanted to know how you managed to get your bird past the bouncers."

Everyone looked confused.

"Wait! She can see the bird?" Octavian asked.

"Apparantly. She must be clear sighted." Ares grunted, sharpening his knife.

"Oh."

Confusion hit me. And looking down at Lysander I realized she could see him. "You... you can see him?"

"I believe that was already established," Hypnos yawned.

She gave me a funny look; staring at me like I just went full retard,

Annabeth smiled, "Percy does that alot."

"Hey!"

Annabeth kissed his cheek, "Sorry seaweed brain."

He blushed, "Its okay Wise girl."

Aphrodite gushed.

"Yes. Why is he suppose to be an invisible bird or something?"

"Only to mortals."

A chill raced up my spine. She was clear sighted.

"We know."

Suddenly I was glad I didn't have any of my godly apparel on my. Since, I really didn't want her asking why I was dressed like I belong at a yoga party.

Hermes, Apollo, their children, and Leo all cracked up.

But looking at her an idea sparked inside me. "Tell you what. How about you let me treat you to breakfast tommorow, and I'll answer any questions you have."

"Ahhhh!" Aphrodite squealed. "Hera asked her on a date!"

Zeus growled; leaning back in his throne and mumbling threats.

"Oh get over yourselves," Demeter scolded. "She just offered her breakfast."

"Whatever you say~"

"APHRODITE!"

"So," Hestia spoke up, effectively silencing the fighting deities. "Who wants to read next?"

Athena raised her hand, "I will."

Hestia stood up and handed the book to her. Athena opened the book, cleared her throat, and then began to read.

Chapter Two.

Well, heres the end. Don't worry, the chapters will be longer.

Remember to R&R!
