Percy Jackson Son of Loki and the Avengers *Complete*

Chapter 7- Game Night

Steve's P.O.V

The Avengers were sitting around the tv when Percy walked in. Only he had his head down and cap over his face.

Knowing something was wrong I said, "Freeze." Shockingly Percy actually did stop and turn but tried to cover his eyes even more.

Thinking I saw some brown under his eye I got up and up to him. Getting down slightly I took off his hat and saw that he had a black-eye.

I looked to his knuckles real quick but didn't see them damaged like they would if he was in a fight.

He walked to the kitchen silently and made a sandwich then before we could stop him got in the elevator and took off to his room.

I turned back to the team and Bruce was the first one to break the silence, "looks like he was in a fight."

"More like one sided fight his hands weren't bruised." I commented. Some of the Avengers like Clint, surprisingly, were made that someone would punch the kid. Others, Stark, didn't really care.

Banner and I got up and made our way to the elevator. Once on mine, Loki's, and Percy's floor Bruce and I went to Percy's room.

Knocking twice and hearing come in from Percy, we opened the door and saw him looking at some of his textbooks while eating the sandwich he made.

Without turning to look at us he ask, "What do you want?" I could tell he was in a bad mood just from the way he talked.

"Would you rather have Stark or Barton come in here?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

His frown deepened and turned to us sighing he said, "How may I so happily help you?" He asked in a false cheer voice. Banner smiled a little and went out to take a better look at the blackeye.

Only when he reached out Percy flinched a little then turned away after realizing what he did. I could tell he was embarrassed but could also tell that he thought he was going to get hit.

Bruce frowned a little bit and gently took Percy's face and took a look at the blackeye. "Well you got hit pretty could and it might last up to the end of the week.

Percy nodded and went back to his schoolwork but I could tell he was waiting for us to speak, "Who punched you?" I asked the boy.

Percy looked away not wanting to tell us and was guilty not. "Does it matter?" He asked

"Yes it does." I said to the boy who looked like he was stuck between two pathways.

He hesitated and sighed, "It was Drake and his two goons Cole and Dylan." He still wasn't looking at us like he was ashamed.

I put on a small smiled and put my hand on his shoulder for reassurance. Loki would be here but Odin said every other week. He was just allowed for that one day but next Monday he would be back.

Percy looked up and smiled a little I said, "Can you tell me what exactly happened?"

Percy nodded, "I was sitting by the pool on the bleachers during free period and was reading, a book about science, and suddenly the book was slammed out of my hands. I tried to ignore it but he slammed it again two more times. By the time I realized why they were there the fist slammed into my face. Coach came and kicked them out and took me to the nurse."

I was mad, "Why did he punch you?" Bruce asked Percy calmly and nicely.

Percy hesitated again, "Well, I skipped three grades so I'm the shortest and smart. Not many high schoolers like me there and hate it. When they hate me it leads to...drastic measures."

I understood what it meant to be bullied. I was, how Thor would say, puny before I got the super soldier serum.

"But most of the time they ignore me and I stay out of their way. But others just take advantage and well...yeah."

I tried to think of something to get his mind elsewhere, "Well today is team bonding meaning we are together for the rest of the night after dinner. You are included and you can't get out of it."

Percy smiled and Bruce and I got up and left so he could work in peace. I was wondering how the night was going to work. He also still had to do his check-up with Bruce. Maybe tomorrow, he has had a long day.

Enter destination for Time Machine to go: Reading...4 hours ahead after dinner. Buckle up.

After the dinner of Spaghetti the Avengers and Percy went to the TV. Clint wanted to play some video games before we watched a movie. While He and Percy played Call of Duty Ghosts the rest of us played Candy Land.

Percy's P.O.V

I didn't think I would like Clint but after playing Call of Duty with him I got to know him. I don't think he hates me as much for who my father is.

We were playing on Tremor and we teamed up on the other team. We were destroying them but also making it so that whoever gets the most kills gets the last pizza slice.

However as the game ended we each tied with 28 kills and 2 deaths. We looked at each other, "Rock, Paper, Scissors?" He nodded. The only problem was we kept tying.

When we heard munching we look over to Natasha and see her eating the last pizza slice. We looked at each other and then dramatically 'die' while clutching our hearts.

The others look at what we are doing and laugh while Natasha rolls her eyes and mumbles, "Boys" but looks like she is finding it funny.

We both gasp at the revelation that we're, as she puts it, 'boys' doing mock hurt Clint says, "Natasha you...you wound us."

She rolls her eyes, "You aren't wounded." She looks over to the clock then back to me, "It's around 11 Percy go to bed." I sigh dramatically and slowly get up.

Finally feeling tired I rub my eyes and mumble a 'good night' then head to the elevator. As I got into my room I didn't bother changing or brushing my teeth I just went to the bed and flopped onto it.

Not even bothering to pull up the sheets I fall into a deep sleep that isn't plagued with nightmares.
