Sorry it's been so long, Wattpad deleted 5 chapters I had already written and I lost motivation. I'm back though :)

Thor left Perci in his rooms. She was just as excited as he was at having to deal with all these problems so quickly. He moved back into the common rooms and found the entire team sitting at the table, assumedly waiting for him.

"Thor. Sit down we need to talk." Natasha sounded annoyed, but looked impressed by the fortitude displayed by Perci. "Who is Perci? And how long is she staying here?"

Thor worried about handling the line of questioning without Perci to corroborated the story.

"Perci is a family acquaintance. We met at last nights event and through some... unfortunate events, she has come to stay with me. Or rather us. As for how long? I am not sure. Much rides on her and I worry how this will end." This just seemed to confuse the team even more.

"So is she a god? An Asgardian?" Clint questioned further on behalf of the team. "She managed to push that door off its hinges." Thor and the team looked at the door lying on the ground and then back at Thor.

"Oh no, no she's Midgardian. She just has some abnormal gifts." Wanda leaned forward at this.

"So she has gifts like me? Are they natural or human made?" Thor started feeling more uncomfortable, the pressure beginning to get to him.

"No, she was born stronger and with better stamina than most other humans. Which I assume is how she beat the security guards up here easily." The Avengers became more settled after the line of questioning, but Natasha pushed on.

"But why here? She could go to professional instructors anywhere on Midgard, or on Asgard but she came here to you. Why?"
Thor stood up, knowing he did not have good excuses for the situation.

"It was instructed by my father, by Odin. I have no choice in the matter. Now I must go and check on my guest." With that he all but ran back to his rooms. This was setting up to be a much harder lie to maintain than he thought.

———— i have nothing to say

Perci sat on the foreign bed, it's springs unfamiliar to her. She knew that this would be hard, but she was struggling to not lash out at people. She really just wanted to go curl up in her mother's arms, but that wasn't an option as long as the marriage hadn't yet occurred.

She also didn't appreciate the roomies. True she normally stayed at a camp filled with other people all sharing everything, but those were people who understood on the most part her struggles and regrets. This new team seemed to be so innocent. Sure she could see the pain in their expressions, but they were all practically smiling compared to most at the camp.

Thor came back in basically running and shut the door behind him. He turned around and almost jumped at her sitting on the bed.

"I've answered most of their questions, and told them we are on business from Odin. If needed just use that as an excuse to avoid answering anything." Perci nodded and stood from the bed. "I would suggest trying to be civil with the team. They can be very territorial for Midgardians- sorry mortals."

Percy nodded agin while turning to her bag. She opened the duffel bag to retrieve two photo frames; one of her and her mother, the other of the Seven on the Argo II. She held them for a moment, washing her mind with the memories of times that were so much simpler.

She wordlessly placed them on an empty desk and rotated back towards the closed door. She gestured for Thor to follow and she pulled it open before striding back towards the common area.

When she entered the room the whispering the team was doing died down as they all stared (or glared) at her. None of them moved to walk towards her, staying at the table presumably discussing her.

"Hi again. Sorry about that. It hasn't been the greatest few days." She looked at Thor and he seemed satisfied with her statement. She turned back to the group and they were all still staring, presumably trying to analyse her. "My names Percy Jackson and I'm an acquaintance of Thor. He has invited me to stay and learn from you all. I'd rather make this time tolerable so can you guys stop staring at me?" The group shook off the stare as if they forgot they were still doing it, well all except the red head.

"I'm Steve Rogers and this is Tony, Rhodey, Clint, Bruce, Sam, Wanda, Bucky and Natasha. We have a few other members who like to pop in and out of the tower so I guess you'll meet them when they next come by."

Perci forced a smile to each member, but stopped when she reached Natasha. Natasha didn't seem to be welcoming like the other members. Perci glanced over at Thor with an almost invisible look of confusion, and Thor gave an equally invisible nod of reassurance. Perci looked back to Natasha to find her staring- no, glaring at her. Perci just nodded stiffly and gave an even more forced smile.

"If you'll excuse me this has been a very confusing 24 hours, so I might retire to the gym. And that is...?" She trailed off, waiting for Thor to give her directions. But instead Stark cut in.

"JARVIS can help you with that. Once you get changed he can take you."

"JARVIS as in that weird British thing?"

"He prefers AI but yes, essentially." Perci hummed in understanding and moved to the stairwell.

"Excuse me Miss," the voice made her turn back around. She identified him as the blonde tall one, like if Jason was older and more muscly. "You can take the elevator. It's faster." Perci shook her head, Thor getting a weird look on his face. "If not, then why won't you take the elevator."

Perci stopped in the doorway of the stairs, her hand tightly around the handrail. Probably bending it but she couldn't tell either way.

"That story is to be told at a later occasion." Thor said, firmly shutting down any further questioning. Perci took a deep breath in and proceeded to the gym.

But as the team still sat there staring after Perci, dumbfounded at their mysterious new roommate, all they could see left was the very clear hand marks on the handrail. The only proof that she wasn't a dream but a reality.

A reality they will have to get use to.

That was a shit ending. I know. The next chapter will be good tho...
