Prologue

A teenage girl was sitting in a clearing, staring up at the sky. The moon shined cheerfully in the blanket of stars. Another girl, dressed in a white clothes and had long, black hair with glittering blue eyes, emerged from the shadows.

"Lady Artemis?" She spoke to the girl in the clearing. Artemis, the girl in the clearing, turned to the voice. She radiated power. In the moonlight, Artemis seemed to glow.

"Yes, Sunama?" Artemis said in a soft, but powerful voice that seemed to echo throughout the whole clearing. Sunama flinched at her name. It faded away quickly, and she said in reply:

"The hunters are ready to go. But are you sure this is the right beast? We've been chasing this for thousands of years."

"Then we'll leave immediately. And yes, I'm absolutely sure. And it will be worth it."

"But the boar is too dangerous!" Sunama exclaimed. "We can't kill it! Although it has been created just recently, it's very powerful and dangerous. We can't risk anymore hunters, either." Artemis sighed. What Sunama said was true. They had lost already 10 hunters in this pursuit of the boar. She stood up.

"We shall hunt it in the night instead of day. I'll be more powerful now than in 6 hours." Artemis decided. Sunama nodded and started to go back in the direction she came from, when the goddess called her back.

"Sunama, are you okay? You seem a little tense." Sunama bit her lip. Finally she said:

"It's just that…just…nobody had claimed me as their daughter yet. Though I do have a hunch. I would say Apollo."

"That is a good hunch. You have excellent aim with arrows and good healing." Artemis agreed. Sunama shuffled her feet nervously. Then the blue eyed girl continued:

"The other thing bothering me is that how people call me. I don't really like being called Sunama. I would like being called Suna, better." Artemis thought for a bit.

"Very well. We shall call you Suna. Now we must leave for the chase." Sunama, or Suna now, brightened a bit. Then it was darkened again. Before Artemis could register that change in emotion, Suna changed directions and walked towards the forest. Artemis followed her into the darkness. Somewhere ahead, Suna called:

"Hunters of Artemis! Regroup! We will continue the pursuit the boar!"
