The Fight of Our Lives
Steve POV
After Natasha's 'start the plan' look we set into action. First we stripped off the ridiculous disguises (for most of us that was just a coat and maybe fake glasses or hair or something...) that took about 30 seconds.
Next Clint swiftly jogs to a nearby tree and settles into position, he has knock-out arrows (in case he doesn't want to come so we can put him to sleep and drag him with us) and deadly arrows (in case the kid gets violent).
Natasha hides in the shadows of the trees for back up with Bruce. I hope we don't have to bring out the 'big guy' but if the kid starts to fight back then Bruce will step in and kick his ass. I mean, no one has ever defeated the Hulk. He's indestructible.
Tony and I walk up to the kid from behind. Not really sure what to do I let Tony take over.
"Hey kid."
The kid gets up faster than humanly possible, that's when I get a good look at him. He's about 5' 11", with black messy hair and sea-green eyes. His muscles are clearly visible through his shirt, and he had an excellent build. He looks like he spends his spare time at the beach or exercising.
Percy POV
I am kneeling down at my friend's graves; Annabeth, Frank, Hazel, Jason, Piper, Leo, Nico and Thalia. I spend about ten minutes telling then that I am sorry for everything, that I'm sorry for not protecting them in the end. I really am a horrible friend aren't I?
I sigh to myself deeply to make it all worse I have five stalkers. After my time in ... Tartarus .. I can sense a lot. For example I can know that six people have been following me since I left my mum's apartment. Any other day I would have shook them off but today I was just so tired, physically and emotionally. That I just simply could not be bothered.
I fell two people approach me from behind, suddenly they stop. "Hey kid" I whip around and stand up. As soon as I see them I have to try and hold in my laughter. Like seriously? Who just casually walks around wearing latex and a suit made of metal.
I can see them taking me in, we just stand there for a few moments. Inspecting each other. It looks like they are expecting me to say something, honestly ... they approached me! They should speak while I stand here and try to stop myself from falling asleep.
Finally I can't take it anymore and I give them my 'medium' wolf glare, meaning it's not the scariest look I can give but it's still pretty scaring. I see them physically shiver and I can't help but smirk at them.
"Hello, my name is Steve Rogers and this is Tony Stark, we are from the avengers." Latex man, well Steve, says. They both pause and look at me with an expectant look like they want to be praised or something.
I stare back at them blankly, "Hey" I say sounding bored. Tony looks surprised and slightly hurt.
"Don't you know who we are?"
I stare at him trying to figure out if he's someone famous, from his aura I can tell he isn't a real threat but the machine he is wearing certainly isn't anything ... humanly normal.
Tony's jaw drops "Haven't you heard of the avengers! We saved your life, no, we saved the whole world from a chitauri attack last month!! You should be grateful. Hell, you should be on your knees thanking us for what we've done for you and the world!"
Instantly I am pissed off at this guy. He wants me to bow to him? I don't even bow to gods anymore, gods bow to me. And what did he say? He saved the world a month ago? Ummm I have saved the world at least three times, he saves it once and thinks he's a big deal! Please ..
"Don't you watch tv? Have you been living under a rock for the past year!?" Steve looks at me incredulously. Living under a rock? That sounds about right, I mean I was in Tartarus.
I stay silent, growing restless now iron dude says "Anyway you need to come with us because you're dangerous or something, I don't think you're that bad. I reckon I could take you."
I get so mad my vision goes fuzzy. I can stand a lot of things but I hate when some arrogant mortal thinks he can beat me in a fight and calls me weak. I quickly look at my surroundings I notice one guy in a tree, probably an archer, a girl and a guy at the edge of the trees, probably for backup.
Without warning I give the iron guy an uppercut, my fist connects with his jaw and I can literally feel his bone snap. I send him sprawling toward the edge of the trees.
Not wasting a second I turn on latex guy, easily disarm him and knock him out. 2 down 3 to go.
Archer dude is shooting arrow after arrow at me as girl and new guy run toward me. I gracefully dodge all of the arrows and watch as girl pulls out a gun and new guy turns into a big green monster. I knew that he wasn't a monster that went back to Tartarus, because I have destroyed every monster and he wasn't one of them.
I decide to take out big and green first, so acting on pure instinct I charge him. He ducks ready to punch me but I jump and land on his back effectively breaking his spine. I punch him a few times and kick him into the air, I quickly gather he water particles around me and make them propel him into the ocean about a kilometer from where I am standing.
I turn to the girl and she is looking at me shocked so I punch her and knock her out. I then grab her knife from her belt and sink it into arrow guy's shoulder so that he can stop trying to shoot me.
As he falls out of the tree clutching his shoulder I walk over to him. I look him dead in the eye and say "Tell your boss whatever it is.. I'm not interested, so stay out of my life."
I can see him shivering with fear, I send a blow to his temple and watch as he crumples to the ground. I then calmly walk out of the graveyard and to my apartment.
