Percy's POV

After I talked to mom about what happened, I went to the place that I had buried my friends, and when I got to their graves I knelt in-front of Annabeth's grave and then I made flowers. Different types for each person, rise out of the ground and then I enchanted them to never die, wilt, or droop, even in the harshest of weather.

"Annabeth, guys, I'm sorry that I couldn't save you, your deaths are my fault and I don't deserve to be alive, and yet I am" I said and then I felt nine (BTW I am keeping it nine even though the rest of the story will only feature Clint, Natasha, Bruce, Thor, (maybe) Loki, and Tony Stark (Iron Man)) presences behind me in the bushes and trees of the graveyard. I didn't mind them, but I knew that they were following me for the entire walk here, and I don't know if they saw what I did to the flowers, but I didn't care either. Three of them were different though, they all weren't human, but two were gods, and one wasn't alive, and yes it was, very confusing.

"I hope that you all take this gift as an apology for what happened to all of you a couple months ago" I said and then I stood up and took Riptide out, still in pen form, and my other weapon, an Ice, Silver, and Celestial Bronze mixed sword that was the same weight as Riptide, but I could make it a sword, spear, shield, or anything else that I wanted it to be. It was disguised as a ring right now, but I planned on using it as a shield, I didn't need to use two weapons against them, they weren't strong as me, and I would be able to beat them easily. For all I know I could just tear apart the machine thing, but I didn't feel like being that cruel. There was another one that had a metal arm though, I could feel his heartbeat and where the blood stopped flowing in one area, and I could feel the circuits and metal on it acting as a connector to his system.

I stomped my foot and the gates of the Graveyard rose up and spread out until it was a solid wall of steel thirteen feet high, and I knew that one of them had a second set of machine-like armor like the other and they both could fly, as well as the second god that had an aura like that of Hermes, the other one could fly too, but not as well as Zeus could. He smelled like lightning, and I stood up and turned towards them. They were still in the bushes and tree like they didn't care about the fact that they were trapped in here.

"I know that you are there" I said turning around to see a well built soldier in a suit of the american flag, and I burst out laughing at the fact that he was wearing a costume in a graveyard, much less a fight.

"I-I'm sorry, b-but I didn't think that i-it was national costume day" I said in-between breaths, and the soldier heated up a little bit at what I said, as did a few others.

"Perseus Jackson, I need you to come with me" the soldier said

"Don't you mean us" I said with a flat face on guard now "I know that they others are there, but they can stay 'hidden' for all I care" I said and then got into a fighting stance with ice spreading across my body till it covered up everything except for my eyes and I uncapped Riptide, and twisted the top of my ring making my shield appear. To them I changed in the blink of an eye, but I could feel every particle, and every change as the armor spread through my body and onto my sword making it sharper than any forged blade by Hephaestus. The flag man was shocked, as well as the others, and I didn't waste any time.

I rammed into him and hit him with my shield, and he flipped through the air before slamming against the iron wall, and falling to the ground before slowly getting up again and pulling the shield off of his back. I smiled letting them see the happiness in my eyes as I went into action. I didn't bother using my powers because I didn't need them, I stopped moving so they could all get over their shock, and then I saw two fly into the air, and I felt an archer in the tree. There was a lady with pistols, and two daggers for close combat, and there was one with psychic powers. I made sure to not let her use them on my mind while I fought by enchanting my helmet to not let it through, but sadly if she touched me that wouldn't save me from it. I could feel sadness in her heart because she had also lost someone, her brother, recently in a different, human war.

The other five came out of the bushes trying to do a sneak attack, but I was ready for it. I suppressed my speed, but still went faster than them. I felt the air heat up a little and I dodged a strike of lightning as it came towards me from the lightning god, and the air compressed as the other one shot a blob of focused energy at me. I dodged that too, and then I felt the a large piece of fiery metal came my way, and I looked back to see the man in iron armor flying at me with a high speed. The other metal thing had a cloak, sucks for him. I dodged the flying man and he flew past me trying to pull up but he was going too fast and slammed into the flag soldier. I looked to my left and saw three arrows coming at me, I dodged them all and then grabbed the last one and pushed a button on the inside of my shield letting me change it at will, and I pushed the button and twisted it again to the left. A bow appeared in less than a second and less than that an arrow was in the guy's shoulder. He fell out of the tree to the ground. I looked at the other four in-front of me and the woman came at first.

She was rather fast, but not faster than me with her twin daggers. I stabbed riptide into the ground and them relaxed my shield hand making it fade and turn back into a ring. She swiped, slashed, and thrust, and I hit her hands away stepping back as she advanced on me. Then I twisted her hands until I her a slight pop and stole a dagger from her, and then I turned in a fast circle and swiped with the other dagger at her remaining dagger. They both exploded in a blast of shrapnel as they collided, and I encased her body in ice as the metal went everywhere, and then I took the metal from the air, melted it and made it into two better, sharper knives. I then melted the ice from around her and knocked her unconscious with the hilt of one of them. Then I turned and threw the other at the other flying machine, and it hit dead center of the chest. I cursed myself for not paying attention better. That cost me needed time, I threw the other across the field and into the shoulder of the man covered in metal making the suit shut down and him be unable to shoot at me with his high powered beams. I then dealt with the other four, the metal arm guy, the physic, and the two gods which had come down to help. The nerdy guy ran back to help the flag guy, and I saw him get up and start running over here. All while dodging attacks from the two, the non-human one just hung in the air watching. I dodged as the metal armed guy punched at me and then I grabbed his arm and judo-flipped him. Then while he was in the air, I jumped off of his chest as he fell, and I took out the blade from the machine thing and hit the gem on it's head. What it looked important, but I was correct because it fell out of the sky unconscious. I felt the air currents shift as something big and fast came my direction, and I noticed that the hammer god had thrown his hammer.

I flipped over it grabbing it by the hilt in the air as I flipped and then I threw it at him with faster speed and force. He flew back and slid across the ground with the hammer on his chest, and the flag guy running at me threw his shield at me. What's with them throwing their weapons I thought and I got into a bracing position and caught the shield and them I used the momentum to spin in a circle and throw it back at him faster like the hammer. He also fell to the ground unconscious, and the metal arm behind me started to get up. I twisted my ring and bashed him in the head with the blunt edge of the shield. He fell down unconscious too, and then I felt something on my leg, and I looked down to see the Physic girl holding my leg and her eyes glowed red, and I cursed myself for not paying attention better. Then darkness consumed me, and I fell to the ground as my mind went into a memory, one that I didn't want to see again. I felt her mind in mine too, seeing what I was seeing, and feeling the same.

I was strapped to a table with a bunch of wicked looking instruments in-front of me, and Kronos smiled as he came in the room. He picked up a serrated, jagged, twisted knife, and he jabbed it into my shoulder making me grunt, and then he twisted it and I screamed.

"Oh what's wrong Percy, something in your shoulder" he said taking his hand off of the knife for a second "let me 'help' that for you" I screamed again as he wrenched it out of my shoulder and I felt blood trickle down my arm and soak into my shirt. Then a monster dragged in Annabeth, and I screamed

"No I'll take her pain too, just please don't put her in here" I said and the monster smiled before dragging her back off, and I was taken from the table with countless cuts and other things on my body and dragged off to the whipping block. They slammed my arms on the many spikes that kept my arms in place, and then they strapped them down and the first strike was dealt with Kronos laughing.

I didn't give him the satisfaction of my pain, and then on the hundredth strike I finally cried out and he gave me fifty more before dragging me back to my cell. I would later wake up and find my cuts healed leaving horrible scars.

I woke up breathing hard and I noticed that I was in a hospital, I was too weak to use my powers to try and heal myself. I tried to sit up, but I felt something straining at me arms and I looked down to see my arms and feet tied by straps to the infirmary bed. I felt water near-by, and I was going to take the chance. The bed was soaked in my blood as the cuts reopened in the dream, but I closed my eyes and gathered my strength to travel. Then I felt my body disappear as it got colder, wetter, and then hotter as I vapor traveled away. Due to my weakness I disappeared slowly as my body 'faded' into water vapor from the legs to my head. I reformed above the pool and I limply fell into the water and sank to the bottom. The blood stained the water, and as soon as I hit the water I felt myself heal and I was given new strength. I controlled the water to get rid of the blood and make it clean and new, and then I swam to the surface and climbed out dry.

Then I saw that everyone was looking at me, and then I remembered the two gods and the girl who also went through my pain.

"How is the girl doing" I asked and they just continued to stare at me, I sighed and clapped loudly making them literally snap out of it.

"How. Is. The. Girl" I asked again irritated and then the one that had worn the flag went somewhere, and I followed him to a room like mine except she was still sleeping.

"She hasn't woken up yet and we don't know why" he said and I shook my head

"She shouldn't have done that" I said and the guy looked at me strangely

"Why not" he finally asked as I went over and put my hand on her head to heal her

"Because I barely could handle what happened down there, but she could've died, went crazy, or she could stay in this coma forever till her death" I said and the guy stayed silent not knowing what to say, and after a couple more seconds she stirred and the flag guy looked up hopeful. He was like the father of their little group, and I guessed that everyone cared about this girl, but I'm guessing that he cared about her more, and I'm guessing that the death of her brother had something to do with it too.

I felt something grab my arms and put them behind my back before putting metal cuffs on them, and I looked behind me to see that the woman that I had encased in ice had cuffed me. I felt her turn me and direct me somewhere, and I saw that we were going to an elevator. Ever since the Doors of Death I hated Elevators the Olympus elevators had been an exception but now I didn't have to go in an elevator again, so I unlocked the cuffs, turned around, and put them on her and stood there in-front of her with my arms crossed while she was in shock.

"I would rather take the stairs" I said "or you could show me a picture of the car, garage, or room and I could flash us there" I said, and she sighed before trying to reach in her pocket for something. I growled loudly and dangerously as the icy armor started to appear on my skin.

"Chill, I'm just getting the key for the cuffs, and a picture for you" she said and I relaxed a little but kept my guard up. She pulled out something, no two things, a key for the cuffs and a small picture like she said. I relaxed completely as she un-cuffed herself, and then she handed me the picture. I looked at it and focused on the place in my mind then I put a hand on her shoulder and vapor traveled. We got there and she put her hands on her knees to steady herself, and I forgot to warn her of what could've happened.

"Sorry, I didn't warn you that it would be a little disorienting the first time" I said apologetically and she looked at me like 'you think'. Then I noticed that we were in a interrogation room, and she pulled out the cuffs again and told me to sit in the chair on one side of the table with a metal bar in the table.

"I need you to put these on before my boss comes in here" she whispered in my ear and I let her put the cuffs back on me, and then she sat in the chair and looked at me. Not too soon I felt a couple of presences go into the room behind the window on the wall, and a man stopped at the door with two others, soldiers probably. Then the door opened and two soldiers, as I thought, and then a black man with an eye-patch came in and the soldiers left to guard the door.

"Oh so you're the one that ordered them interrupt my private time" I said harshly with my wolf side coming out, and I was a step away from shifting into a small animal to 'get out of' these cuffs and then turn into a bigger one and mess up his face further.

"Yes, but it was for good reason, we can't have a powerful terrorist roaming the city, much less the world now can we" he said and I laughed tilting back in my chair before slamming the chair down again with an amused face.

"You think that I am a terrorist" I said amused and his straight face told me 'yes' "now why would I, a eighteen year old kid, be a terrorist"

"Well for one you blew up Mt. St. Helen and you were kicked out of many schools for different reasons, all being dangerous to the inhabitants, especially the shark tank one" I smiled at that memory, and then thought that I have at least a couple of good memories from my past.

"Those were both accidents, and the school thing that was unintentional" I said still smirking a little

"Whatever" he said and then he looked at the screen and a presence left the room and came in, I saw it was the flag guy that I fought "even though I am not entirely happy about the fact that you guys were given your asses to by this kid, but he would be a good asset and addition to your team"

Wait. What. I was really confused, they bring me in for questioning and it turns out to be a recruitment...I hate this world I thought and then the lady stood up and left the room leaving me along with Mr. Flag pants.

"Okay last time we met wasn't the best of times and so I am first to test you. I am going to test your strength" he said putting his arm on the table in a arm wrestling 'stance' and I smirked as I put mine up too accidentally breaking through the cuffs and I looked down to see the short chain in a little bunch under the metal bar, and I took the cuffs off thinking I don't need these on anymore and they dropped into the table as I took them off. Then I took his hand and I had to admit for a mortal he was strong but back when I was a demigod the Hephaestus cabin was stronger, and I even beat a couple of them in a fight during Capture the Flag too. Now that I was a primordial this was too easy for me, and I held him at neutral position while he strained to even move my hand.

" If you need to use two hands that's fine" I said and he turned red with embarrassment before straining some more " what's your name I don't think you said it before" I asked slowly pushing his arm down.

"It's Steve" he said watching the arm as it went down and when I pushed it softly on the table his arm relaxed and I put my arm out to shake. He took it and our first actual time of bonding began.

"My names Percy, and I hope to train with you and you team" I said and he stood up leaving my in my chair with his head low in humiliation. As he got out I heard another guy teasing him.

"Oh is Steve sad that he got beat by a kid" the guy said and I saw a back as the person talking pushed open the door.

"Good luck, Clint" Steve said and I smiled before realizing that I didn't have any glamour on. I hopes that the mortals couldn't see through the mist and I made a glamour appear to make myself appear like I did when I was younger.
