The What-dogs?

Percy POV

I had finally got to my mum's, and she was cooking blue pancakes. Yes, blue pancakes, my favorite. "Hey, mum." I said as I walked into the kitchen.

She jumped a little before she said, "Percy! You scared me!" I laughed a little at the look on her face. "Where were you, I only sent you for milk?" she asked. I stopped laughing and froze at the word milk.

"Uh, you told me to get milk?" I said, kinda worried.

"Yeah, don't tell me you forgot." She asked, and I nodded. "Seriously, Percy? How did you forget the reason I sent you out in the first place? What were you doing?"

"Well..."

"Don't tell me you went to see Annabeth again; I mean, you saw her this morning."

"No, mum, I wasn't seeing Annabeth."

"Then what in Hades were you doing?"

"Well, there was a woman with these awesome powers who was stuck under a metal shelf and-"

"Wait, how did you know she had powers?"

"Well, there was a metal shelf almost falling on her, but she was holding it up with some kind of force coming out of her hands." 

"Oh, that's weird."

"Not weirder than being a demi-god. Anyway, I helped her out of it, and it seemed like her wrist was in pain, but she didn't tell me why."

"Oh, was she a demi-god or something?"

"No, she said she was something called an inhuman, and that she went through something called terrigenesis."

"So before that, she was completely normal?"

"Yes, I think."

"So that's why you were late and that you forgot to get milk?"

"Yea, sorry mum."

"It's fine, I'll get milk tomorrow. Um, Perc can you put on the news, please?"

"Sure," I walked over to the TV remote and turned it on. 

"Not too long ago, two of the most well-known vigilantes were sighted against a gang of Watchdogs-" The reporter began.

"The What-dogs?"

"The Watchdogs. They're a gang of terrorists who target Inhumans." My mum said.  A sudden thought hit me. Daisy's an Inhuman. She's in danger.

"But... Daisy's an inhuman."

"Quake was seen saving this kid in a wheelchair." she continued. 

"Uh, she actually s-saved my life. I-I don't think Quake is as bad as everyone thinks she is. But when I left, I saw her g-get hit in the head by one of the W-Watchdogs." The kid said stuttering, he had obviously never been on TV before. The news reporter then showed a video of Daisy being chocked by one of the Watchdogs, then a guy saving her. I couldn't see the guy's face until his head burst into flames. He lost the fire skull but had his back to the camera. I couldn't see his face but I could see Daisy's face. When she waved to him she was clearly in pain again. Why would he save her, didn't he almost kill her yesterday.

"In this video, we can finally identify Quake as Daisy Johnson, Ex S.H.I.E.L.D agent." 

"What?!?" I shouted

"What's wrong?" My mum asked.

"That's the girl I saved. She's not a dangerous vigilante. I mean, she proved she's nice by saving that kid, right mum?"

"Well, I suppose. I mean she almost lost her life for a kid, she risked her life, for a kid she clearly didn't know."

"So you agree with me?"

"Of course I do, but she's in serious danger from the Watchdogs - and probably the police, now that they know who she is."

"Yeah, but if she's friends with that man he should be able to protect her. Right?"

"I hope, but he isn't with her all the time. Look, she just walked away from him." My mum said. I looked at the TV to see Daisy walking away from the man with a fiery head.

"Yeah, and she's too nice, she's probably going to try and help other Inhumans, and get herself killed in the process." I said, my eyes glued on the TV screen.

"I hope she doesn't, you know, die. And how do you know she's nice? Do you know anything about her?"

"Well, she said that she is 25 and that she hasn't spent more than 2 years in any one place; meaning she bounced around foster homes for her entire life. She said her mother was evil and her father a murderer. Her mother tried to kill her, and her father killed her mother to save her. She said that a S.H.I.E.L.D agent died for her, then a different one dropped her off at an orphanage. She also said that the first inhuman she became close with, who she also loved, died for her." I explained.

"Wow, that's... dark. Do you know what the guy she loved called - or her parents names?" She asked.

"I know the guy she loved was called Lincoln Campell, her voice seemed to shake at that memory, but I don't know what either of her parents are called, she didn't go into too much detail, they were probably memories she didn't like to think about, I mean, I wouldn't want to think about it if you or Annabeth died."

"Yeah. I have a plan, maybe we should go and find her, make sure she's okay."

"No, no, no, no, bad idea. I have a better one. I will go look for her, and you keep an eye on the news, when something that could help us pops up, call me."

"Ok, not a bad plan, I suppose," She said.

I nodded. After I finished eating my pancakes, my mum packed me some food, I could've done that myself though. I packed my bags, said goodbye, and walked out of the front door. Let's go Quake hunting I suppose.
