Percy looked at the scene before him. Natasha and Tony looked at him with shock. He had that effect on people especially when he was showing off some new tricks.

Percy though back to the goddess, and how blood blended. What else was he capable of? He didn't know, and he didn't want to know. Just thinking of it made him nauseous to the point of wanting to run to the cliff, and then proceed to trip all the way down into the rocks. That's the physical manifestation of his thoughts.

Of course, he did not want to think of that.

"What the heck," Tony asked. "You just took down Loki 2.0, and somehow you have powers."

"Explain," Natasha said.

Percy shrugged and looked to Annabeth, asking for help. Annabeth turned to Tony and Natasha with a placating smile. Like she was going to comfort two children. That smile was deceptive. "You forgot the last time. As soon as we tell you, you will forget again."

"Thats uh...". Percy stopped himself and coughed slightly. He was about to say that was not true. He could be a kelp head sometimes.

"It can't hurt to try to tell us," Tony said.

"We just did," Annabeth lied.

Loki was smiling slightly in the back. Thor looked a little unhappy. Of course he knew what was happening, but he couldn't say anything to interfere. They kept of interfering with both of their lives, and this wasn't supposed to be happening. There were laws. But both of them broke it. If you kept on interfering with each other's lives it could lead to war. Asgard had seen enough war. So have the Greeks. So have the Romans. Their past haunts them. (So here I am eluding to how the Greeks and the Romans used to be. How they were afraid of what happened to the Greeks and Romans during the civil war. Well something similar happened to the Earth gods and the Norse, that made them be like this.)

Percy pulled Annabeth aside.  "Why don't we just tell them."

"You know how are parents are like.   Plus they were annoying last time they knew.  They kept on being like, your just kids, you should let the adults handle this."

Percy nodded.   "They were like that.  Aunt Nat or Aunt Nag a lot told me this a lot, tried to interogate me, and then spied on me."

Annabeth and Percy both agreed with their eyes and turned and walked back to them. 

What they forgot was Tony was iron man, which meant he had a built in spy feature that let them narrow down the sound.   So even they walked a considerable amount and then proceeded to hush their voices it didn't work.

Tony played it for Natasha who had  stood next to him.   Loki looked entertained.  Thor had that out of water look on his face.

Natasha glared a little at her nephews back.  "That little brat called me Nat nag a lot."

Tony laughed a little.   "You have to admit it's funny."

"I just have to remember that Percy is my nephew."

Percy and Annabeth walked over, holding hands.  "Awe, the lovers are coming," Tony said.  

"Can he be less annoying," Annabeth asked.  

"I wish for that too," Nat said.  

"You can always stick a knife in him.  That will make him stop talking," Loki said, mischievously.

Tony turned and glared at all of them.   "You don't understand what is like to be this level of genius and awesomeness."

"You foolish mortal.   Are you forgetting I am a god," Loki said. 

"You only remind us every few seconds," Percy said.

"Haha, see the kid loves me, and agrees with me," Tony said.

Percy smiled awkwardly.   He faked acting bashful and scratched the back of his head, like he was nervous.  "I don't know how to break this to you, but we used to be enemies."

Tony acted shocked.  He took a step back and clutched his heart.   "Kid your breaking my heart.  Why were we enemies?"

Percy was thankful that Tony caught onto the playful mood.  He didn't want to end up in handcuffs again.  "Well, I may have placed stink bombs in your tower."

Tony smiled and looked like he won something.  "Wow Percy, you're on your way to becoming a terrorists."

A little pain went into Percy's features.   Percy controlled his expressions right away.   He remember when Tony said something similar to that.  He had called Percy a terror and a terrorists in front of the agents of SHIELD and nearly got him arrested for it. 

He wished Tony had his memories sometimes.   Sometimes he was grateful they didn't have their memories.   Before they had there memories erased they had gotten close.  Like another family.  Too bad it was gone.   Everything they built was gone.  Memories took it away like fire turning wood to ash.

"What was that sad look," Natasha asked. Of course, Natasha would notice that look.

"Tony used to call me a terror," Percy said.

"Awe, I miss you too buddy," Tony said.

Percy glared at Tony. Tony could be a jerk sometimes. It was one of his obnoxious qualities. His ego was a lot like Zeus's ego. The only thing was that he had a heart that cared a lot despite what front he put up. That's why Percy never blew up like he should around Tony. He still did a lot of pranks, but Percy would never do anything intentional to hurt him. Just like he knew that Tony would never intentionally hurt him.

"So Percy tell me about your father," Natasha prompted.

"Percy the ice has melted a lot. You have to refreeze it. You don't want Loki 2.0 escaping."

"Hey," Loki said offended. "I will have you know I actually succeeded in taking Asgard."

Annabeth rolled her eyes.

Percy turned his attention to refreezing Loki 2.0. He was glad not have to talk about his father.

"I will call Fury and tell him to get the threat and move it somewhere safe." Natasha got on the phone to start dialing. She pointed to Tony. "Contact Clint and Steve. Tell them where we are."

"It really seems like you are prolonging the inevitable," Loki said, once the mortals were busy.

"With what," Annabeth asked. "Popsicle, the past, our heritage?"

"All of the above," Loki said. "They are already putting the pieces together."

"What does he mean by that," Annabeth demanded. She turned to Thor. He would be more likely to spill the beans.

"They overheard the conversation."

"How?"

"Well Tony..." Thor was cut off by Annabeth.

"His suit," Annabeth guessed.

Thor nodded.

Annabeth looked at Percy. They needed to do damage control and fast. Their ship was sinking. Was Loki right? Would they find out?
