Chapter ~4~ Percy's POV

After I finished Iris Messaging my mom I exited the bathroom and went back out into the hall.

I walked down the hallway, I noticed my room was at the vary end of the hall, and there where rooms with name plaques above the doors. I finally made my way back to the main room, which had a kitchen to the right and in the center of the room was a large table, behind that was a giant TV room, with huge sofas and a 80' something inch flat screen TV. I was officially impressed. And last but not least, the elevator right to my left.

I found all of the 'Avengers' gathered around the table happily eating pizza, there where several open pizza boxes also. I found an empty seat next to the one they called 'Captain America' and grabbed a piece of pepperoni pizza.

"So, Percy, tell us about yourself. You are after all apart of the team now. " Tony Stark asked me.

"What's there to know?" I replied, trying to be mysterious. Apparently it worked.

"Well, what's your favorite color?" Tony asked.

"Blue. " I replied simply, taking another bite of pizza.

"How about favorite video game?" he asked me.

"Don't play video games. " I answered again without giving it a second thought.

"How's that possible?! Your like, 18!" Tony exclaimed.

"I dunno. " I shrugged, grabbing a piece of regular cheese pizza this time. I didn't like being interrogated, even though they where simple questions.

"Jeez, Cap! this kids as far back on technology as you are!!" Steve just shrugged, ignoring Tony and continued eating his pizza.

"So what powers do you have?" Clint said, talking for the first time during the whole conversation.

"Uh..." I tried thinking of something to say. "I don't have any...?" I said, but it came out more of a question.

"Then why would Fury want you on his team.." Natasha wondered aloud.

"Beats me. " Tony shrugged. "But it'll be fun with a new guy. "

"Maybe tomorrow we should do a quick physical exam..." Bruce spoke. The words 'physical exam' immediately made me worried. I had a LOT of scars he did not want anybody to see. If they did they'd ask questions, if they asked questions I would have to lie or tell them the truth, if I lied i'd get in a ton of trouble if they found out i was lying, if i tell the truth, who knows what would happen.

All I knew, was I could not get examined. I also hated needles.......

"Hey, you ok kid?" Steve asked putting a hand on my shoulder. I hadn't realized it, but I had tensed up and kinda spaced out. Gee, gotta love ADHD.

"Uh, ya, im fine. " I confirmed putting on a fake smile, I had gotten good at it to, always pretending to be happy. But Steve didn't seem to buy it, but he let it slide. Tony looked at his watch.

"Phew! Would ya look at that! Bedtime already! Night guys. " Tony said, I knew he must've felt the tension. I nodded and stood up. I waved everyone goodnight as we all decided to go to bed. Tony's room was the closest to the kitchen, then across from him was Thor, (who wasn't there) Then Steve, across from Steve was bruce, then Clint, then across from Clint was Natasha, then me.

I went into my room and plopped down on the bed. I knew I wouldnt be able to sleep though. Annabeth was gone, and Tartarus still haunted my dreams. I tightly closed my eyes. I needed Annabeth. I needed to find her. No matter what.

I decided I needed to think. I knew a billionaire like Tony Stark had to have a pool. So I silently snuck out of my room after a few minutes, and headed towards the elevator. I remembered something about a robot named Jarvis that Fury told me about.

"Uh.... Jarvis?" I whispered to the ceiling.

"Yes Sir?" replied a Male robot voice with a British accent.

"Could you tell me what floor has a pool, please?" I asked politely.

"Floor 15, Sir. " Jarvis replied.

"Thanks... And could you wait until morning to tell them where I am? And only tell them if they ask for me. " I said.

"Of course Sir. " the happy voice replied.

"Thanks. " I smiled and went into the elevator pressing the 'floor 15' button.

The elevator quickly went down and I was soon looking at a giant pool. I smiled and walked over to the pool and dove in. Finally, I place I could think. I laid down at the bottom of the pool and closed my eyes.

In the water I felt like my old self again, before all the wars. I felt my self silently drifting off to sleep, thinking about Annabeth.

<•THE NEXT MORNING•> (3rd person POV)

Tony woke up and yawned. It was around 10 AM. He groggily got up ad went into the kitchen and grabbed some poptarts.

Of course everyone else (except Percy) where already eating Breakfist.

"Hey, where's the kid? " Tony asked. "Hey Jarvis, where's the kid?"

"The pool, Sir. " The robotic voice replied.

"How long has he been in there?" Clint asked the machine.

"Sense around 10:30 PM, sir. " Jarvis answered.

"Who can stay in a pool that long?!" Tony exclaimed.

"Maybe the kid does have powers.." Steve wondered aloud.

"Let's go see for ourselfs. " Tony said taking a final bite of his poptarts and all of the Avengers, (minus Thor) went to the pool to investigate.

Once they entered the pool area, they found Percy laying at the bottom of the pool, looking quit relaxed. Tony leaned over the edge, and soon all the Avengers where. They stood like that for several minutes waiting for him to surface. Yet, he didn't.

"Is he dead?" Tony asked.

"I don't think so..." Natasha trailed off.

Percy's eyes then opened, and it looked like he yawned under water. Then his eyes widened significantly when he saw them. He immediately swam to the surface.

"Uh... Hi..." he said sheepishly. He swam up to the side of the pool and pulled him self out effortlessly. And what surprised everyone, was that he was perfectly dry. Tony almost had to pinch himself to not poke Percy.

"How are you still dry???" Steve asked in amazement.

"Uhhh......" Percy had no idea what he was going to do.

"How where you under there so long?" Tony asked.

"Ermmm...." Percy still had no answer. He didn't know what he was going to do.

"We should have the exam now.." Bruce said. Percy's eyes immediately widened. He REALLY didn't want to. Clint helped Percy up. "Let's go. " Bruce said, he and Steve had to practically drag Percy to Bruce's lab.

For the whole quick trip, Percy struggled and struggled, and struggled. But it was no use against Steve and Clint. A Super soldier and an assassin. Nobody knew why he was struggling so much, it was just a quick check up.

Once they got him to the lab, they ended up strapping him down to the table, because he was struggling so much. Percy strained against the straps, but it was no use. Just in case, Bruce kept Steve and Clint there.

"Now we're gonna have to take your shirt off for the physical exam, to make sure everything's working right. " Bruce said. Percy's eyes widened and he struggled more.

Bruce slowly approached Percy, deciding if he should sedate him or not. He decided against it for the time being, because he didn't know if the kid was allergic to anything in the sedative. Bruce lifted up the bottom of Percy's shirt slowly. Percy stopped struggling, he knew there was nothing he could do to stop them from seeing all the scars he had. Bruce's eyes widened and he mentioned for Steve and Clint to see. Percy saw the same reaction on all of their faces: Shock. Shocked that an 18 year old would have so many scars. Bruce put Percy's shirt back down. Percy saw worried expressions on everyone's faces.

"Percy, what happened? How did you get those scars?" Steve asked gently.

"It's none of your business. " Percy responded, getting a little defensive.

"It's alright percy, you know you can trust us. " Bruce said. But Percy didn't know if he could trust them. Right now, his life was to much of a mess, he couldn't tell who to trust anymore.

"No... I-I can't..." Percy said biting his lip. He didn't know what to do. The only thing he wanted to do was shut everyone out. Get away from all of the stress. But Percy knew he couldn't.

"Don't worry kid, we're all friends here. You can tell us. " Clint said.

"It's just... I just..... I......." Percy didn't know what to say. He couldn't tell them the truth though.

Suddenly someone burst into the door.

"We've spotted Loki. " Natasha said, her suit already on.

Percy's first thought was: Who the Hades is Loki?
