——————<Percy's POV>——————

I watched as a thin man with glasses and a scientist look as well as smell walked into the room, and the first thing that I thought was why does he smell like chloroform and a bunch of other chemicals

"What?" He asked and I cursed realizing that either he heard me or I said it aloud. I didn't sense the others having questioning thoughts or actions though.

"I said why do you smell like heavy chemicals" I said and he looked at me with surprise all over his face.

"How do you" he started but I cut him off

"Did you really think that I wouldn't be able to smell what you could do, have been doing, or will do like sit in the chair out of curiosity" I watched him slowly get into the chair looking at me with, well, curiosity "and now everyone is wondering what I can't do again" I looked at the black window, and then I focused on the particles in it and made it turn into penny like disks making a-lot of noise. I laughed because it was hilarious to see all of their expressions as three watched the 'pennies' slide to the ground.

"Okay other than your extraordinary powers and strength, my name is Bruce Banner, well when I'm not the other guy, and I want to see how you are doing on a physiological level" he said and my mood just plummeted like my descent to Calypso's island after the Mount St. Helens thing.

——————<Steve's POV>——————

As soon as Bruce told him hat he was going to be doing physiological questions. The kids face looked worse than Loki when he was mad. We all shivered with uncomfort and I decided that I wouldn't go into these questions again.

"Okay I am going to ask you a couple questions and I want you to say the first thing that comes to your mind" Bruce said and the kid nodded still having that blank expressionless face on. It was creepy.

"Fine" Percy said as Bruce continued

"Red"

"Blood"

"Family"

"Gone" his eyes were filled with such sadness

"Friends" Bruce didn't get an answer

"Torture"

"Sleep" he paled at this a little and it made me wonder why, there were a-lot of things that this kid was hiding

"Time"

"Titan"

"War"

"Death"

"Peace"

"Impossible" Percy scoffed

"Hell"

"Been there, twice"...what

"Paradise"

"Annabeth" Percy looked like a ghost as he drifted into something and then a look of horror crossed his face as his eyes glazed over and he fell onto the table abruptly making a dent in its surface. Bruce immediately stood and checked his pulse while me and Clint jumped through the window to help.

"Sheesh guys he just feinted it's not like he's dying or something" I heard Tony say behind us and then the boy screamed, and it was a blood-curling, bone-shaking scream that I'm sure only Natasha's heard before as by her face and soon she also came in. I picked up Percy much to Bruce's dislike and put him in my shoulder and I looked at Thor for where to go with the boy. He seemed to understand because he stepped out of the room and opened the door and then as soon as I got though he turned and walked towards the training area.

"The Percy that we heard about on Asgard was able to heal himself with water" Thor said as he all came to the pool. I felt something wet on my shoulder and I felt it running down my back too, but I threw he kid in and as soon as he touched the water it was flooded with gold and he relaxed as he sank to the bottom as the gold slowly went away. Then the water turned a dark green color spreading from his body as he was locked in a screaming position.

"Take him out, take him out now" Thor said and I didn't hesitate I jumped in and swam through the murky substance, and it felt like tar, but underwater how is that possible. I felt something silky and I grabbed it and started to swim to the top, and as soon as we got out of the tar like substance. Percy stopped struggling and he seemingly calmed down, and I broke the surface and took a deep breath of air before looking down and breathing in relief as I saw and pulled up Percy to the edge of the pool. The others helped get him out and set him on the ground and then Natasha started with compressions. I climbed out of the pool and I saw Thor getting ready like he was in a battle calling lightning and then I saw a little light and I realized his hammer was sparking. He went up to Percy as Natasha tried to get him conscious again, and he pushed aside Natasha with all of us coming at him trying to stop him from hurting the kid further.

We were too late because Thor got to him and dropped his hammer on his chest, and the blast of the charge knocked us all off our feet.

"Thor you might have well as killed the kid" Tony exploded as he got up, and then the kid shot up breathing in deeply and he had gotten that sword out and was at Tony with the sword to his neck in a flash.

"Are you real" he said as we looked at him like he was crazy, and I had to say something

"What the hell is wrong with your life kid, it looked like you were dead" I exploded and he winced seemingly remembering something and then he shook his head and stepped away from Tony and his sword disappeared before he put the pen in his pocket. He walked around Tony and looked at the murky pool before sweeping his hand through the air and the pool returned to its state before he had gotten in it. Then he turned around and limped out of true room holding his shoulder. I was tempted to ask him what was wrong but he just disappeared in a shower of water, and to say that I was shocked was an understatement.

I turned to Bruce shocked that he could do something like that I had to admit that it was rather cool, but I was wondering why he was so unhappy and sad about. Bruce turned to us and we all looked at him for an explanation.

"The kid has some major PTSD and I have no idea what happened there" he said and we turned to Thor since he seemed to be the only one that actually knew about Percy.

——————<Percy's POV>——————

I mist traveled to the graveyard and knelt at the foot of Annabeth's grave. I put my hand on the dirt of the coffin and raised some flowers in her honor. Grey ones like the color of her eyes, and then I felt something cold on my shoulder and I looked back to see Annabeth, but she was a ghost.

"A-Annabeth is that you" I asked looking at her and she nodded

"Percy I do not know why I am up here much less as a ghost, it may have to do with your powers but you need to get over my death and live your own life" I was in the middle of a trial for rebirth, and you called my soul up"

"I'm sorry I just wished that I could see you one more time to tell you" I started

"I already told you that you need to move on. I've already forgiven you, and you just need to let me go" she lectured just like my Annabeth, tears formed in my eyes "literally and figuratively" and I nodded and her ghost sank into the ground and I couldn't feel her presence anymore. Then I felt people behind me and I wondered how they found me so fast, I turned around to see the Avengers, but to my surprise they weren't dressed up and they had shock all over their faces.

"What was that" Natasha asked, I had only learned her name because of my powers which included mind reading.

"That was Annabeth, my murdered girlfriend" I said walking past them and then I noticed that the shadows had thickened around the graveyard and the next thing I knew a large black shape was running at me. I realized what it was and turned to run, I couldn't flash because it would kill the mortals, and I couldn't vapor travel because even though I was in my and another god's domain. I was too worn out from the last travel.

"Mrs 'O' Leary stay girl, Stop, Don't you d---" I was pushed to the ground by two large paws on my back, and then the back of my  shirt and head was soaked in this thick sludge known as dog slobber.

"MRS. 'O' LEARY" I yelled into the ground and she must've realized that I couldn't breath because she stepped down, and then started growling at me.

You left, you left me back at camp without saying goodbye, YOU LEFT I rubbed my temples trying to lessen the pain of her voice in my head. I learned that since I was the primordial god of all creatures I could speak to and hear any type of creature, tree, myth, monster, of dead, and it got deafening.

"Calm down girl your voice in my head is painful" I said and she wined

Sorry...wait you can hear me now she said and then jumped on me again growling and i nodded. Then noticed that Clint had an arrow in his bow, and Natasha had her guns out. I put my hand out and they hesitantly put their weapons down.

This is just a friend guys I said to them, and I hoped that she was the only one that came out of the shadows.

I could tear you apart and ravage your soul at how mad I am at you I turned back to her and pet her face. After a couple minutes she calmed down and let me up again.

"I'm sorry girl, I really am, and you know what loss is like" I said and again she wined at the memories of being pushed out of her family, even though she was bigger than her pack, she was shunned for helping us in the first war "and recently I lost a-lot of friends" I held back my tears, but hugged her neck.

"You know what after this I will play with you for a while okay girl" I said trying to lighten the mood

You mean it she asked and I nodded

"I mean it" I said and she ran off jumping up and down with excitement

Yay me and Cerberus get to chase Percy around and use him as a chew-toy I winced at the thought

"If you can catch me" I muttered and Mrs O Leary would've hear me if she wasn't so excited, and then I saw a flash of black before I was on the ground again and Nico was standing on my chest with his sword at my throat.

"Percy Jackson do you know how long I've been searching for your sorry butt" I paled at knowing that Nico had probably been looking for me with Mrs. O Leary ever since I cut myself off from the gods.

"Months Percy, MONTHS" Nico pushed harder on my chest with his foot, if that was even possible. I could feel my ribs groaning.

"Sorry Nico, Mrs. O Leary already yelled at me about that too, so please let me up" I put a pleading look on and he got off though still angry. Then I felt a change in the air and I put up a wall of fire before the arrow even got halfway to us.

"Guys do you really have to be so cautious" I yelled

"What he put his sword at you and your unfazed" I looked at Clint like really, and then I remembered that they hadn't met Nico yet. I face-palmed thinking 'this was going to be a long day'.

"Okay who should I introduce first" I looked at Nico who was standing by Mrs. O Leary with his weapon sheathed and his hand in her fur.

"I already know who they are" he said suddenly "but Percy, I do not care if you are immortal, but if you leave us again and we have to find you with a-lot of trouble. Then not even the north will keep you safe from us" I sighed knowing that that was what he would actually do if I did that to him again.

"Okay then, that saved me the trouble of introducing you guys to him, but Avengers meet Nico, my cousin" I said and Nico took that as good enough and he walked into a tree's shadow and went back to camp, either to train, burn off some energy, get there before Will found him gone, or found out about him Shadow-traveling against orders, or for lunch. My stomach growled and Mrs. O Leary tilted her head at this.

"I'm hungry girl, no need to worry" I reassured her and she plopped down next to me growling lowly at the others, and as usual Clint and Natasha went on the defensive. They had their weapons out in a couple seconds and I sighed in annoyance. Them with weapons only made her worse, and I snapped my fingers and they went away and then I patted her on the back to get her to calm, and she looked at me and licked my face. I frowned and tried to wipe it off, but of coarse that only made it worse, so I stood there glaring at her with a dripping face, and she opened her mouth, sticking her tong out lazily and tilting her head. My annoyance almost went away at how cute she looked, but I kept from giving in until I heard laughing.

I saw Steve, Natasha, and Bruce smiling, and Tony and Clint were laughing holding their knees, and Bruce still had his scientist urge look to study on as usual when he saw something interesting an new to him. I would not let him study Mrs. O Leary like an experiment and I sent him a glare that made him step away from fear. The other two didn't notice my glare until they were on the ground from the earth moving under their feet and sending them to the ground with a yelp. It was my turn to laugh now, but it was short-lived due to Hound slobber getting up my nose and in my mouth making me gag.

I conjured a towel and wiped my face off before burning the towel to dust in a couple seconds, and then I wondered how to explain my pet monster to them.

"Okay this is my companion and dog, Mrs. O Leary, Mrs. O Leary these are my friends" I motioned her and the others and she was about to jump on them as a greeting but I stopped her by freezing her in place for a second "they are mortal, you would kill them if you jumped on them, and your saliva is poisonous to them" I unfroze her, and she whined before putting her chin on my head.

Awwww, but I want to be their friends I heard her voice in my head

"I'm sorry girl, but that's just the way it is" I said petting her neck

"That is not a dog, it's almost twelve feet tall" Tony exclaimed

"Oh yeah" I was hoping that they would just go by with dog, but nooo he had to say something "this is a Hellhound, and she is a monster" Mrs. O Leary growled a warning "sorry my monster" she nuzzled my head.

"Wait so that's a--" Mrs. O Leary growled at the fact that Tony was going to say monster.

"--creature that shouldn't exist" and there it was he still managed to get out something asshole like of him, and Mrs. O Leary whined and turned her head away from him.

"See now you got her upset" I said going over to her and petting her while telling her that it was fine and he didn't know what he was saying "of coarse you got to be an ass even when you are normal" I said now glaring at him "well I'm going to go and play with her now, and I probably won't see you for a couple days" I climbed onto her back loathing the place that she was going to take me for her version of playing

"Wait we need to know if you will join us, and help save the world" Steve said and I scoffed

"I've already saved the world, twice, but sure how much could it hurt anyways, but it is up to you guys to figure out a name for me because I already have my armor as my suit, so it doesn't look ridiculous like yours do" they all flushed with a little embarrassment, and without warning Mrs. O Leary jumped into a shadow and the next thing I knew I was in the underworld and Mrs. O Leary was stalking towards Cerberus. My eyes widened and I had barely gotten off when she pounced. The next few minutes were filled with the two rolling around growling playfully, and biting each-others necks.

Wait Percy's here I heard Mrs O Leary say and I paled when I saw their gazes switch to me, and I backed away a step, then another while they stood let's get him. That was my cue to run, and I ran for my life screaming.

"Percy Jackson what brings you here" Hades said as I literally ran through his throne room door

"KINDA Busy" I yelled turning the corner, and I herd a crash and a couple yips and yells as the two over-sized dogs burst through the door and followed my scent. I looked behind me and saw that they weren't there, and I slowed and put my hands on my knees to catch my breath. I felt the room get a little darker, and I looked up just in time to see Mrs O Leary jump out of the ceiling and come at me with her mouth open, and I barely rolled out of the way. Then a blur came from my right and the next thing I knew I was pushed into a shadow. The next thing I saw was the ceiling as I fell through the air and then I saw a flash and the next thing I knew I was in Mrs O Leary's mouth and she ran into another shadow. Then the next few minutes was filled with the Fields of Asphodel, Hades' Throne room, Hades Treasury in which I hoped to never see again, and the Fields of Punishment before something slammed into us and I was flying through the air. Then Cerberus caught me and I went into another shadow, and the next places we went through were Canada, New York to Russia, and then Hades' Throne room again before I noticed that Cerberus had only one head instead of three.

I thought can he make his three heads combine into one before I was flying through the air again only to land on the floor and lose my breath. I did see the two roll into another shadow and disappear. I got up groaning, and guessed that I had a minute of free time before they realized that they left a very important toy behind.

"How long have they been doing that" I asked and Hades chuckled shaking his head

"About an hour or two, though they might not be done with you" he said

"Yeah you think" I said and then the room got darker again and I sighed "well more running, and I'm guessing that I'll be here for a day or so while they get their energy out, so yay" I added sarcastically and then a head came into view and I took off with the sound of pounding feet behind me. The rest of that day was filled with running, hunger, laughing, and 'flying' before they finally tired and I was squished in-between them as Mrs O Leary fell against Cerberus.

I wiggled my way out of the two and looked at them sleeping peacefully together before taking a picture, enlarging it, putting it in a frame, and transporting it to my room in the Avenger's tower, which I still went up by the stairs or flashing in. Then I realized where I was and I barely had enough time to react before I was swept away by a black and murky substance known as the River Styx.

Thanks for reading and I am sorry that I haven't updated in a couple weeks so I made this chapter a little longer than the other ones, 3522 words, 4-30-18, bye.
