Superheros Raise A Greek Hero

Non-English Cuss Words Are Still Cuss Words

Honestly I know Percy was trying to be good. He wasn't trying to cause trouble or create chaos. But this was insane.

"So" I sigh "So, you got expelled. You screwed up." I got down to my son's level "You knew what you did was wrong, the question is how are you going to make things right".

He looked at the ground "Apologize to my teacher for biting the bully" I rose one of my eyebrows trying for a disappointed dad look. His little body slumped "And apologize for cussing out the bully but to fair I still don't know what I said, neither do my teacher or Matt"

Clint sighed "Kid- Kiddo if you don't know what it means why did you say it?"

Percy smiled crookedly like a arsonist about to burn down a city " It was what Uncle Thor said when he stubbed his toe and it had the perfect amount of rage in it"

Thor blushed, "The Fates saw my foul tongue when it came to that pain and have punished me with the knowledge that have passed it on to our young warrior"

"That was dramatic" Natasha noted.

Clint laughed "What did you say to that defenseless wall Thor"

Thor was pale "We have to warn the other child not to go near any goats"

I shook my head as Natasha and Clint teased Thor about walls vs farm animals.

I looked at my son as he gazed off into the distance. The boy, Matt, was glaring at him but that did not matter to Percy. Percy had picked a stick and was tapping it on the ground with no clear beat.

I plop down next to him. He frowned up at me "Sorry dad"

I had to laugh, it's insane that my child, my beautiful wonderful son could go and say something so awful without knowing what it was. But he would never put up with a bully, I can't say I don't know where he gets it from.

"They're going to expel me dad. I know they are and you don't have to hide it from me, it's okay I've excepted it. Well I've excepted it but it's not really okay but what I did wasn't okay so I understand."

I Took his head into my arms and kissed his forehead. Yes you're right they are going to expel you, but they're also going to expel Matt. Just have to learn from this person. Acting under offense of others is always the right thing to do but sometimes you need to think about the way you're doing it and how it will affect those you're protecting.

Percy nodded silently I didn't know if he understood what I was saying but I think he understood the difference between right and wrong even if his we are fixing it was a little on Orthodox.

"What do you think my next school be like? He said looking at me with big green eyes.

"Hopefully better than this one"

"Peter won't be there so maybe it will be a lot worse"

I nod "Life isn't fair when it comes to that" I look at the sky "Did I even tell you the story of my best friend?" Percy shook his little head.

"Can I hear the story too?" Peter asks, walking up to us.

Percy opened up his arms to Peter, who happily sat next him " Look, I didn't want to be just another person on the sidelines. I wanted to protect people and fight every bully I ever saw".

Peter grinned and poked Percy in the stomach "So that's where you get it". I roll my eyes til I can go on with my story.
