Forgotten Memories

Chapter 16

Wow that plan failed massively!   Here the demigods were trying to break into the TVA with a device Leo came up with.  

"We are missing an element," Leo said, he was frustrated. 

He came up with the device quickly and no one would expect him to come up with a device in a day.  He is a genius not a miracle worker.

"What are you missing," Percy asked.

"A metal that only Stark has," Leo said.

Annabeth groaned. "No, I don't want to deal with that narcissist."

"We could try to by pass security. We did it before."

"With them being on high alert," Annabeth said. Her mind was already thinking around different solutions.

"What do you need to grab specifically so we can start mapping out what we need to steal."

Leo got on the plans and started mapping out where to get the metal. 

Annabeth looked at the plans that Leo was making.  "Maybe you should ask the other Hephaestus kids to help you?"

"They tried, but I need a new element to make this work.  The iron keeps on deteriorating."  (Iron Man 2 problems)

"You need Tony don't you," Annabeth asked.

Leo nodded.

Annabeth groaned and looked up at the sky closing her eyes.  Percy grinned.  "Stop smiling," Annabeth said.

Percy jumped back surprised.   "How did you..."

"Daughter of Athena, goddess of wisdom and strategies.  It's like you don't know me sea weed brain."

"Dude...," Leo said.  

"I know you wise girl."

Annabeth smiled.   "You sure?"

Then she walked off.   Percy following after her.   Leo was laughing when they left.  Plans needed to be made.

                            *               *               *

Tony was trying to pinpoint the person who kidnapped Loki.

Natasha was interviewing people who were around Loki when the disappearance.   So far they were coming out like blank white sheets of paper. 

Bruce was trying to figure out the anomaly of vortex that happened at the time.  

Clint was scouting around the city.

Thor was dealing with an ancient prophecy that he couldn't ignore. He had wanted to go look for his brother, but he had to trust that the rest of the avengers had it covered.

Fury was sitting in a chair trying to think if it was wise to call upon his old friend. He sat down on a chair looking at the call button that was only to be pressed upon an emergency. Was Thanatos worth the trouble? He felt that the avengers could handle it, but maybe not.

Fury was facing a dilemma. From the intel he got anonymously he was a potential threat. He was trying to gather the infinity stones, That kind of power....

Fury stared at the file and made a decision.

All of this was happening when Percy snuck into the avengers tower with his flying Pegasus.

"Boss, you owe me donuts."

Percy nodded, and then several of Hermes kids hopped off too.

Percy walked in not bothering to hide his presence. "Aunt Nat!"

The other Hermes kids walked off to go steal the part.  They were snickering.  

Tony came in a moment later looking mystified.   "How the heck did you get in?!"

"Doesn't matter, I wanted to ask Nat a question."

"Sneaking into a well guarded tower with a high level of defense system matters."

"It's not that high defense.  I got in easy."

Tony spluttered looking at Percy angrily.   He started raving about the technicalities of how high level his security system is.   Percy looked at him blankly.

Tony looked at Percy expecting an answer.

"Just because you said that doesn't mean I will understand."

Tony crossed his arms.

"Who did you get to hack FRIDAY?"

"A friend."

"What kind of friend?"

"The kind who hacks."

Tony sighed and did something with hand.   Percy felt air behind him for a second and went to move, but a metal piece of armor enveloped his arm and stuck to the wall.

"Ugh, not cool," Percy said grumbling.  

He was trying to get the thing off his arm. 

"That is titanium.  You are not getting that off."

Percy glared at Tony.   Percy could get this off with water, but he was stalling right now.  Divert attention and allow the Hermes cabin to pull through.

"Are you going to tell me now?"

Percy shifted his head elsewhere showing that he was ignoring Tony.

"Real mature."

Percy smiled before sticking his tongue out.

Suddenly there was an elevator before Natasha came in holding a Hermes kid. The other Hermes kids were not caught. It was just that one kid.

"Explain," Natasha said.

The 11 year old looked up at Percy. "I am sorry. I should have stayed behind."

"Don't tell me tell Clarisse. You are sparring with her when you get back."

"But Percy," he whined.

"You wanted to come."

He huffed in Natasha's arms.

Natasha looked over to the boy. "I am guessing he is a part of your dad's side."

"Yes," Percy said.

"Do you want to tell me?"

"I would right now, but we are trying to stop the TVA right now."

"The TVA," Natasha asked.

"The organization that kidnapped Loki," Percy said.  He said it like he thought Natasha was slow.

"How do you know about that," Tony asked.

"They have been trying to kidnap people on my father's side.  We want to send a strong message not to mess with our family."

"By doing what exactly," Natasha asked. 

"Breaking in to their time pocket.  We just needed to borrow something from Tony."

Percy made a shushing motion toward the boy.  "They are the avengers.  They should help us."

"The meeting," Percy said, frustrated. 

"Yeah majority agreed against but..."

"We can help," Natasha said. 

"We voted against it."

"Well we didn't ask," Tony said. 

Percy sighed.  "We will call and ask when we get the machine together."

Then Percy called the water and broke apart the metal arm on his hand, grabbed the Hermes kid, and escaped through the window.  He whistled to blackjack and then they were gone.
