James' P.O.V

I hop into the car and wait for Annabeth to get in. She does, so I start the car. When we drive off, as we leave the driveway Annabeth's suddenly sucks in a breath.

"What up doc?" I ask.

"There was, more, of them. One guy in our house, a woman with at the least four guys out here. I think they might be the avengers." She explains, rather nervously.

"Um, why didn't you read their minds?" I ask

"The mind is a many layered thing, James, it can't be opened and read like a book, not in that way at least." She rolls her eyes.

"If you practiced?" I leave the sentence there.

"Maybe," She gulps "but it just seems, well, evil and what if I can't stop reading peoples minds? What if?"

"Your still my little sister, even if we're not related, I'll both tease and bully you, and get up people who tease and bully you." I nudge her shoulder, smirking like how a older sibling should.

"Ha ha. Very funny." She rolls her eyes. "Pay attention to the road!" She yelps.

"Gezz, sis." I mumble. I see Clint at the side of the road, bow and arrows at the ready.

"You ready?" Annabeth mumbles, pointing to the Clint slightly, bracing.

"Yep." I grip the wheel, ready to stop my head from hitting the wheel.

Clint fires the arrow. A silver thread follows, and I gulp. C'mon! I was having a good day!

The car hits the wire, and Annabeth hits her head on the dashboard. She may be out, I'm not sure. I hit my head, but only pretend to be out.

"Hey Clint, I was right." Natasha says.

"Gezz, Nat, I didn't think that would happen!" He argues.

"Still, lets get them out of the car. Then Nat can go on about how she was right." Steve says. I force a smile down my throat.

I feel someone grab me, and I let myself flop. Trust me, it was hard.

"Is she okay?" A small voice asks. Bruce.

"Maybe." Annabeth says. I jump up and out of Steve's arms.

"You should ask her." I say.

"Shut it James, I've got this." Annabeth says.

"But"

"No buts. All of you have no right to do that to us. We are not animals to be taken to a slaughter, so you should not treat us like we are." Annabeth snaps.

"You working with criminals. You should be treated like some." Nat says.

"Oh please, you are blinded by the false sense of power that you gained during a battle. You fight for freedom whilst adding captivity! You give choices that are already chosen for your victims, little spider. Come with us or we'll kill you and all you hold dear. And thats the choices give." Annabeth advances on them, but I grab her arm.

"You share your name with a wise person, kleine Schwester, show me proof." I say.

"I hate you." She says, but backs off anyway. Thank god.

"Are you guys going to come with us? There no way you could escape." Tony says.

"There's always a way out" Annabeth says, though she sounds unsure.

"Yeah, right, kid. Look at the facts at play. You are in danger, from both the government and HYDRA, your with someone who works for HYDRA, and we're the avengers. We're trying to help you and get this monster into jail." Clint says. I look down, ashamed.

"NO! HE'S NOT A MONSTER!" Annabeth steps in front of me.

"HE KILLED YOUR MOTHER!" Clint yells back. Bruce steps in front of Clint.

"HE SAVED MY LIFE! MORE TIMES THAN YOU CAN COUNT! JUST BECAUSE HE MADE ONE MISTAKE, BECAUSE HE WAS FORCED TO DOESN'T MAKE HIM EVIL!" She cries/ yells/ screams.

There was silence, guilt goes through me. I made them fight.

"Guys, please stop." My voice is quiet, but everyone hears it. "Your both entitled to you opinions, don't go shoving them down each other's throats."

"I agree, no one here wants the hulk to come, so I suggest we all just get a long." Bruce smiles.

"Okay." Annabeth, Steve, Thor, and (rather reluctantly) Natasha.

"He's a criminal!" Tony yells.

"So was I." Nat says.

"He kills people!" Clint says.

"So do you. And I." Natasha sighs.

"You said it." Annabeth says.

"Huh?" Nat asks.

"The underlying 'boys' in that sigh." She says.

"Oh my fucking God!" Tony says as they join our side.

"Language." Steve and I say in unison.

"Buck, it's good to have you back." Steve looks at me. "What did you say to Ava?"

"You mean kleine Schwester?"

"Yeah, what does it mean?" He asks. Nat laughs.

"Work it out cap." She punches his shoulder.

"I hate you both." He fumes. Annabeth laughs.

"Our family just expanded!" She whispers to me in Russian.
