Broken

Surprise guest

Peter's P.O.V

It has been a week since Percy first arrived. It's been great around here with someone my age. He is funny, kind and awesome with a sword. I'm the only one he told about his powers. Lately I've been noticing bags under his eyes and he's been tired. I wonder if he's been sleeping okay. The Avengers were all seated in the lounge and Loki was as usual, leaning against the wall. Although we didn't trust him yet, we tolerated him. Percy walked in and smiled at us. He was about to say something when something came from a shadow and blurred towards him. Percy flew across the room and landed on a table, rolling across it, scattering objects everywhere. The whole team stood up and aimed or weapons at the person who attacked Percy. What I saw surprised me. A tall, skinny boy with pale skin, dark eyes and black hair stood there, massaging his fist. He was wearing a black shirt, black jeans and a skull ring on his finger. He looked pissed. 

"Perseus Jackson you are so dead." He said with a snarl. Percy slowly got up, leaning heavily on the table, rubbing his jaw.

"Who are you? Why did you attack Percy?" Natasha demanded. Suddenly Percy laughed.

"Relax guys, it's just my cousin." He said with a grin. I stared at him, dumbfounded.

Percy's P.O.V

I rubbed my jaw, Nico's punches had gotten stronger.

"Guys, this is my cousin, Nico." I told them. They looked at me dumbfounded.

"Nico! How have you been?" I asked him with a grin. He glared at me.

"I came to see you one day and you were gone without a trace. You didn't bother telling me where you went. How do you think I am?" He shouted with a snarl. I winced.

"I'm sorry." I mumbled.

"I was worried sick and all you have to say is I'm sorry?!"

"Look, I kinda deserved that punch and-"

"You really deserved that punch."

"-and I know you're angry-"

"I'm furious!"

"-but I was a bit busy." I finished. Nico sighed and ran a hand through his hair. He suddenly a voice came from the shadow Nico had popped out of.

"Who missed team Leo?" The voice said. A grin broke across my face.

"Leo!" I shouted.

"Percy!" Leo shouted. He stepped out of the shadow with that mischievous grin of his. He jumped when Thor squealed and clapped his hands.

"Okay, who's the excited god?" Leo asked me.

"That's Thor and his brother Loki. Apparently we are legends on Asgurd." I told him.

"Really?"

"Yeah, there actually is a team Leo." I said with a laugh.

"I knew that, I just didn't know anyone was in it."

"So. Why are you here, or is it just to check up on me?" I asked, turning serious.

"We have news about-" Nico stopped.

"Do they know yet?" Nico asked and gestured to the Avengers. I shook my head.

"What? Do We know what?" Tony demanded.

"Okay, we have news from your uncles and dad." Nico told me, ignoring Tony. I felt my face harden.

"What about them?" I asked coldly.

"They're looking everywhere for you. Even in other countries. The hunters are also searching for you." Nico told me. I scowled.

"I led them off track for a bit, they shouldn't be looking here yet." He said.
