Zeus was a little upset.  By a little upset I mean he threw a lightning bolt.   Thor took the lightning bolt and redirected it.  After that Zeus smirked and called Thor a puny god.  Thor tried ignoring it but his pride was upset.

The whole time he was clenching his fist trying to handle Zeus's arrogance.  After all, he need his help.

Zeus had Athena speaking about the clarification of the letter.  So Thor didn't have to deal with Zeus too much.  

After they were done talking, and Zeus finally understood about his sister.   He was told to wait outside because he needed to talk to Percy and Annabeth. 

Percy and Annabeth looked up at them.  "You guys need to have a plan in place to evacuate into the barrier if Thanos gets the infinity stone.  There are six infinity stones.  Once he gets the fourth one I want you all to start moving all the kids within the border at camp.  We will be fine, but we don't want you children disappearing if this madman comes."

Percy and Annabeth looked upset.   Annabeth reluctantly nodded.  "What about our mortal parents?"

Zeus shrugged.  "None of my business what happens to them.  I only care about the children."

Percy thought about his mom Sally.   "There has to be something we can do."

"There is," Athena said.  Percy looked up.  "Stop Thanos," Athena said.

Percy nodded reluctantly. 

They went outside to meet up with Thor and Loki.  They had taken the stone that Loki hid, and put it in the underworld.  Somewhere where no one expected to be.  Going to the underworld was a journey in itself.  You had to go through many obstacles.

Loki looked bummed he didn't get his stone.

All of them walked together deciding to take a cab. 

Everything was going smoothly until a red and gold armor deciding to land in front of the cab.  The driver stopped.   Soon people  walked out and Percy saw Natasha, Steve, Clint, and Tony.   He wondered where Dr. Banner was?  

Percy, Annabeth, Thor, and Loki all got off the cab.   "Thor?  Why are you with Loki of all people?  Why is Percy and Annabeth with you?" 

So the questions started.  "I cannot answer that my friends.  I am afraid...". Thor started.

"Nope, I don't accept your excuses Goldilocks," Tony said.  

"Well, you see," Thor tried again.

"He is trying to find his father.   Loki tricked him by acting like his father and now he wants his father back."  Surprisingly it was Annabeth who said this.   She saw them circling back and forth, and that part was true and did not involve them.  

"Okay, but why is my nephew accompanying you," Natasha asked.

"You got your memory back!  That's so awesome aunt Tash," Percy said.  

Annabeth mentally facepalmed herself.  Oh no, he was a seaweed brain.

"I didn't young man, but now it looks like you and I are going to have a serious conversation."

"Yeah, well you are going to have to do that later.  We are busy escorting Mr. Odison to find his father," Annabeth said.

Thor looked to the side.  "Mr. Odison," Thor asked.

Annabeth shook her head.   "Not now," Annabeth said.

Thor shrugged but glanced back down at Annabeth like she was an alien.  Well she was to him at least.  Was hearing his last name that weird? 

"We will go with you, and after we can have a long chat," Natasha said. 

"You always sound like your threatening me, but I know that you really care.   Deep down in the sea of that heart of yours," Percy said.

Natasha looked at him.  "Are you calling my heart small?"

Percy shook his head.  "No I called your heart the sea.  You know with fishes, and seashells."

Natasha didn't know what to say.  "Don't worry, sometimes I don't know what he is talking about either," Annabeth said.

"Should we be worried?"

"I don't think so yet, but if he starts acting funny," Annabeth said.  

"Hey," Percy shouted.  Then they all bursted out laughing.

"How about we all meet back at the tower, and then we catch a ride to Thor's father."

Everyone nodded agreeing. They took a cab ride back to the tower. Iron man flew back. Black Widow took a motorcycle with Clint back. Steve took a motorcycle back alone as well.

When they all got back to the tower, they got to pick from the line of cars that Tony has.

"We are going in the SUV.  Clint and Steve can take the motorcycle," Tony said.  

They all got settled in the SUV.   Natasha turned over in the SUV.   "You want to start talking?"

"I love talking.  Especially about fish, the color blue, and blue food."

Natasha raised her eyebrow.  "Okay, I get it.   I went and talked to your mom earlier.  She had plenty to say."

"What did she say?" Percy almost growled out. Percy's flaw was loyalty, and he had to remind himself that this was his aunt who he loved. His mom was above that though. If his aunt was threatening his mom...

"She talked about your quests."

"But you don't what quests are right," Annabeth said.  She stepped in before Percy could open his mouth.  He could be such a seaweed brain. 

"It's self explanatory," Natasha said.

"Thanks for the confirmation.  Percy she doesn't know anything.  Why else would she try to track you down," Annabeth said.

"How do you know we were looking for Percy," Tony cut in.

"Because you asked why Thor and Loki was with us," Annabeth said. 

There was silence in the car.   Tony started fiddling with the sound.  "It's too quiet in here."   Then he put it on rock music and turned it all the way up.

"It's too loud," Annabeth said. 

She couldn't hear her own voice.   She guessed Tony put in a surround sound system in place.  Loki looked at the radio and then suddenly sparked off.  

"Hey," Tony said.  

"You mortals are insufferable," Loki said.

Percy opened his mouth to say something, but Annabeth glared at him.  He closed his mouth.  Annabeth knew when Percy was going to turn into Persassy and get into trouble with someone.
