Recap:

If you guys haven't read the first book in this hopefully to be series, then you should probably read that first, I would highly advise it. Otherwise last I left off she had just been captured by Natasha while the others were in pillars of diamonds from when she used her powers, and now;

Percy's POV

I woke up feeling something cold and...metal, and the first thing I thought was that they were stupid. I looked around and then I saw heat signatures on the other side of a black mirror. Then I separated them by using my water powers and felt that the guy with the artificial heart was there, the superhuman projects were also there, the Norse god was there, and the woman who I had knocked out and then gotten knocked out by. I looked down at the table when I saw the woman touch her ear and then I looked at the camera and accidentally exploded it due to my shock of it moving. I looked down at my hands and the table again and then I realized that I was cuffed by metal, to metal, bad choice. I held my hand on the table drawing in metal and adding a few of my own to make a few guns and then I realized that I still had my wristbands, and I stopped pulling in the metal, took out my own metal, and ripped off the cuffs. Well more like made them melt to be apart of the metal of the table and then I walked around the room as I molded the metal to match the table's metal as I tugged my left bracelet and pulled the string aiming at the woman's shoulder. I closed my eyes and when I opened them my vision had a golden tint to it and then I let go of the sting and then five more arrows aimed for above all five's heads. 

Then as time was frozen and my arrows joined their timezone-time freeze. used my speed to run full force into the glass wall feeling it had little strength, but I realized something was off about it and as soon as I hit the glass instead of feeling it crack or buckle. It seemed to absorb the shock and then it rippled before the ripples stopped and shot down at my center. I was shot back to the opposite side of the room and I hit the wall with a crack as I lost my control over time and I sank to the floor hearing six unsatisfactory thunks and a scream that was of fear and not pain. I slowly got up feeling their fear, and smelling it leaking off of them in waves. Except for the soldiers, but the archer and the assassin lady felt the fear a little, but the soldier man didn't. This confused me, and I looked right where his eyes should be before the door literally blasted open and I smiled ready for an attack. I got out Slayer and Revenge before seeing at least maybe four, five soldiers with guns run into the room and aim at me. Then one of them shot a beam of light energy, and I was still tired from the exertion of power and the shock of the rebound-blast of the stupid window. 

The little beam of light hit my shoulder, the exact shoulder I was aiming on for the woman assassin, and I fell to my knees glaring at the soldier who I could feel and smell his fear, but the mask hid his face from my sight. He fired again as I stood and I now felt a connection to the energy like it was pure energy or part of the sun, and I touched it with time slowing around me and it didn't feel like last time. It felt like power and it felt like it was a part of me.

"I guess I found another domain" I said and then I moved to my earlier position and pretended to be in pain from their blasts. Then a man with an eye-patch came in and he reminded me of my evil immortal brother Chrysaor (BTW I had to look this up from the Mark of Athena and how to spell his name correctly, this may be one thing I will mess up if it comes in the future). I burst out laughing and I eventually fell to the floor not caring about the threatening of powering up energy weapons. 

"What's so funny Persephone Jackson" I froze when he called me by my first name and gave him my best glare possible, making him flinch but I didn't relent. 

Steve's POV

I watched as six arrows penetrated the ripple-glass and there was a thud as Persephone hit the far wall and landed on the floor before getting up. The sound of marching was heard outside, and then Fury's soldiers flooded the room aiming their advanced weapons at Persephrone, but she didn't seem fazed until one of them shot her. She fell to her knees cursing and growling like an animal, but I couldn't place it, and then she stood and they fired again and I swear that I saw shock in her eyes, not fear shock, or pain shock, but wonder shock like she'd discovered something. Then Fury walked in and she just started to laugh rolling around on the floor pointing at him and clutching her stomach. 

"What's so funny Persephone Jackson" a Fury said and we all shivered as Persephone gave him a glare that would and could, seemingly, kill. This was the first time I saw Fury actually Nervous, even after discovering my friend, Bucky, and after he tried and seemingly had killed him, but here he was stubborn as ever, if not more.

"Don't call me that Pirate" I had to stifle a smirk and I heard a few bursts from what only could've been Tony and Clint, and I looked sideways to see Natasha also smirking a little. 

"Please sit" Fury said motioning to the chair, but Persephone shook her head, and glared at him again making the soldiers tense up and one of them was about to pull the trigger again but they all didn't have weapons anymore,  Percy had liquid balls of metal floating in-front of her hands, and then they disappeared into her palms and the next second she was gone as well, and Fury was against the ripple wall, but the ripples seemed to be moving in slow motion and her eyes glowed as she held Fury up by the throat. He wasn't making any sounds though and I thought he was dead till he moved his head sideways and raised his hand up with a finger to his soldiers. They set their pistols on the ground and then they also melted into liquid and sank into her hands. 

"Woah" Tony said and then Persephone flicked her hand and there was a blind second to spare before snakes of metal wrapped us up and pinned us to the sides of the room. She smiled sensing victory, and then she looked at Fury still in her hand dangling in the air. The ripples were going down now and I knew that when they reached the center and blasted outwards, nothing could prevent Fury's death. Not even drugs or a hospital, but he raised his hands in surrender, or seemingly surrender. I saw a flick of his hand barely noticeable and Persephone noticed it too, and the entire room was covered in thick black metal, and the window was ripped open as the room remolded itself. 

"You know I always wondered if what made Wolverines claws so special, and then I found out that they were made of adamantuim, and the shield that the super soldier has is a stranger but slightly weaker metal, and then I realized that Adamantuim was real when I followed my comics when I was little, and ghostly hacked into the government then I tried searching for it until now. It is in this place and now at my command, but I will not harm any of you as long as you keep my deal" Persephone said and I saw the ripples disappearing behind Fury's back "you have about three minutes in my time freeze until your own designed glass kills you" she looked at the glass cautiously and wondrously like she admired and feared it. 

"I accept, but only if you answer the accusations I...we have against you" Fury said and Persephone took him off the wall and a second later a loud throng was heard throughout the room. I turned to Tony and Natasha looked over suspecting something. 

"The glass is still rather strange to me don't you think" I said putting a hidden hint in it and Tony seemed to light up before he tried to reach into his pocket. I looked back and saw a hundred teeth in-front of my eyes. 

Now what are you doing talking to the others for I heard a girls voice in my head and the teeth lowered to reveal green eyes with gold out-lines, green irises with a liquid silver pupil and the outsides of the eye was the same but with red, gold, green, blue, purple, and black appearing constantly like fish coming to the surface every so often. They were mesmerizing, but I shook my head and cleared my thoughts before soldier staring the eye, and it seemed to lighten up with understanding before lowering and she was a girl again. Tony had stopped digging in his pocked for something also mesmerized and I pinched him making him flinch and glare at me in annoyance before remembering what he was doing and he brought out a sphere with a circle on one side. 

"Get her close and then tap this on any part of her and she'll be encased in ripple-glass" he said and I took it and nodded in thanks. 

"..do not need" she was talking to Fury answering his questions, and I yelled catching her attention. 

"I have a question" I said 

"Not now soldier" she said and I was surprised when she didn't say my title condescendingly

"No it's important" I said "I need to know what you are going to do when, and if we let you go" I looked at her and her gaze hardened harshly. 

"No concern to you mortal" she said and then moved to the door, and I wasn't about to let my chance at getting her back in custody out of my sight

"No seriously I mean if you leave we will find your family--" 

"Their dead, or at least last I saw their apartment was in shreds and an old enemy left me a note of his unfair revenge" she said dipping her head and opening the door.

"Then we'll find your friends and when we do--" I was interrupted by a hand at my throat tightening against it, and I decided to take this shot, but in a second. 

"If you dare hurt my friends I will tear you apart slowly and then tear apart your soul and send it to the void to pieces before you even reach the after world" she said and I looked at her smiling 

"Oh I don't think any of us are going to die" I said and then grabbed her arm and the device beeped before covering her body in a casing of ripple-glass, but she wasn't done. Her features changed and she grew long nails, her teeth changed into silver and black with the fangs a mixture of the two and gold in a spiral, and the rest of her teeth were a bright and brilliant silver, not white, silver. Then her body grew and her stance changed into that of only a predator, and her eyes changed from their golden sea-green before her skin darkened and gleamed like silver and obsidian, and then two bumps of gold erupted from her back making her silently scream and she fell backwards glaring at me with hate. Then the bonds slacked and I ripped them off before getting the others and noticing that she wasn't unconscious, but perfectly conscious. Her chest wasn't rising or falling either, but she seemed to still be conscious. 

"What exactly does that thing do" I asked Tony as we looked at her cautiously approaching

"It stimulates an electricity and sealant that prevents her from moving, hearing, communicating, and apparently breathing, but at least she isn't seizing from lack of oxygen because there would be no way of getting it off until it deactivated and takes itself off in" he looked at his watch "three hours" no way could she hold her breath for three hours, but then again she wasn't a normal human either, in fact I had no way how to explain her. 

I heard Natasha order soldiers back at a secret base to build a prison of ripple-glass and we put her onto a cargo car and got in with me, Clint, Tony, Thor, and Bruce with Fury driving the car with her on it, and Natasha with the others in another after they got new weapons. 

"Steve" Fury suddenly said

"Yes sir" I said expecting a lecture about the possible consequences of my actions

"Thanks back there" he said 

"Oh you shouldn't be thanking me" I said looking at Tony and Bruce "you should thank Tony and Bruce they engineered it" they looked proud

"Well I am thanking you for your bravery and honor as a soldier to risk your life for her capture" as usual he didn't recognize them, just me, and I swear that I felt something pull away from my thoughts, and my gaze went down to the unconscious form of Persephone, but her eyelashes flickered. 

"Thank you sir" I said and then Persephone's eyes flickered open and everyone yelled as she shot up and cut through the middle  of the transport with her claws and then she shifted into something and I felt something scaly and rough grab my waist before I was in the air and flying away from the others. I tried kicking, punching, and finally as a last attempt, biting, but all of them only hurt me and I turned my head to look back to what Persephone was carrying me as and I saw a flash of gold and red feathers before they flared with light and I blacked out. 

Thanks for reading and I hope you liked the first chapter of the second book to New Life- New Beginnings, 2446 words, 5-29-18.
