Percy Jackson and the Avengers

Chapter 2 - Detaining and Regretting

Bruce Banner POV

"He should be around Manhattan, but witnesses say he spends most of his time in the district cemetery." Fury was talking through a radio device, and we all nodded. Man, me and Steve really didn't want to do this; Thor was simply squealing in delight at the end of the Hellicarrier. Everyone but me and Natasha simply stared.

"Um, why're we going to hurt a child?" Steve asked us, eyes still fixed on the excited god.

"We don't have to hurt him unless it's necessary, Fury said so himself," Clint reminded. "A kid won't be able to cause much trouble, especially since I can shoot him from a distance."

"You guys think... You... can detain... him," Thor said through giggles. "He is a legend on Asgard. He defeated thousands of foes, more dangerous than we could even imagine."

Natasha snorted. "I can easily just knock him out with the anesthetic drug I have in my syringe." She patted the pocket on her thigh, and a small point was sticking out. I shivered. Never get on her bad side, note to self.

"Well, I can easily blast him." Tony argued. We all rolled our eyes, and he shrugged. "There he is!" Steve proclaimed, and we all looked down to see a small figure entering the cemetery alone. Perfect.

Not so perfect for him...

Steve POV

I immediately grabbed my shield from over my back and jumped out of the craft, using my shield(frisbee) for balance. I landed in the trees in a crouch-position. Looking up, I saw Clint, Natasha and Banner spiraling down on a rope connected to the Hellicarrier. Tony and Thor weren't coming...? Oh well, not that we'll need them. This was going to be easy.

A part of me still resisted to harm a kid, but I had to; for S.H.I.E.L.D. For Fury.

For Manhattan.

"There's a bush over there," Natasha whispered. "Let's hide there." We all nodded and jumped down swiftly, hiding beneath the thicket. I peeked my head over and tried to find him. My eyes kept skimming the cemetery until landing on the so called Perseus Jackson, weeping over a grave. "I'm so sorry, Annabeth. I'm... so sorry you died for me. It was supposed to be the other way around. I couldn't get to you in time, and she made me watch the rest of you die," He sobbed. "I-i-i still and will... always love... you." He leaned over and kissed the headstone, leaving gray-painted flowers on top, before sitting on his knees, just staring at the grave. Dang kid... sad life. I looked over at Clint and Natasha. The archer seemed to be in tears, which made me realize that my eyes too were watery. Damn my sympathy.

"Poor, poor kid," Clint sighed. "For a young age, he seems very odd." I nodded, and he got a dart out, notching it to his bow and firing without a single glance of where he was aiming. "Okay, Natasha, call Tony down-"

"Uh... Clint?" Bruce said. "He caught it."

Percy POV

I stared at the arrow in my hand, noticing the blunt on it. A tranquilizer? Uh...

I quickly and briskly walked out of the cemetery, but my ADHD kicked in once again, and I caught a shield. But the force was very strong, so I stumbled a bit. "Get him!"

"How did he-"

"He just did! Get him!"

Voices shouted at each other, and I brought my fingers to my lips, whistling for Blackjack. He did not fail, cause soon the only black pegasus came flying in, nuzzling my neck. Yo, boss! Watch'a need? I'll tell you what I need, a damn doughnut! You haven't gave me one!

I rolled my eyes, "If you help me get out of here, I'll give you... er... 12 doughnuts. He seemed to obliged, cause he snapped his jaw on my shirt and hauled me up, and whinnied.

Hang on tight, boss!

"Stop calling me BOSS!" I yelled the last part because he didn't even warn me as we sprinted into the air, me desperate for a hold on his mane. Once his flying leveled to a peaceful state, my tension cleared off. "Thanks buddy, you truly are-" I was cut off by a deep arrow slicing through my ankle, and I cried out in pain, falling from Blackjack's back. And I landed with a sickening crunch.

Clint POV

Thank god, we didn't lose 'em! Steve, Natasha and Bruce were running to the ground to were the boy landed while I simply sped through the trees.

But I saw a dark figure land by the black-haired kid when I jumped down to my fellow Avengers. A winged horse(how...?) reared up in almost protection to the boy fighting for consciousness. Dang, did I get him that bad?

Steve POV

Tony came flying down next to me(could've helped if he was here earlier) and gathered and energy beam, aiming at the horse. "Perseus" whistled to get the winged horse's attention. "Go, boy. I can handle this." A moment silence. "I'll buy you doughnuts if you leave, just go!" There was a moment's hesitation on the horse's features but he flew away.

We all turned then to Perseus, who was shaking on the ground, tons of blood leaking from his foot. This was the time where we had to act serious; all of our face hardened. "Get up." Clint orders. The teen shook his head. Natasha storms up to him and yanks him up by the hair, all of us wincing from his cry of pain/shock. Clint comes up to him and holds a knife to his neck. Perseus freezes, his pupils dilating.

"If you don't want to die, you probably shouldn't be defiant." He then ripped out the arrow that was shifting in the boy's foot, and he cried out once more. I couldn't play the hard act on a child; especially one who's in pain, physically and mentally.

Percy POV

What were they wanting from me? They definitely weren't monsters, I would've felt it. The girl who was holding his hair in an iron grip had fire red hair with bright green eyes; wearing all black. Kinda reminds me of Rachel...

"Now, you're going to hold still," The archer(who I was angry with) growled. "or the consequences will be more severe." I nodded, that is until the redhead grabbed my wrists together. Oh, no. That definitely only meant one thing. Kidnap.

I struggled, but Metal man grabbed the back of my neck, and redhead wrapped twine around my wrists. I growled, but they wrestled a bag over my head. "Cap," I heard a new voice say. "Hurry up and do it."

There was a slight pause that I could hear that was probably hesitation, before I was knocked away from those thoughts, and something hit me over the head.

Hey! I will be editing this chapter when I get the chance, but i'd love some ideas on the story! Disclaimer: Don't own PJO or HoO, or Marvel! (I wish)
