I've never seen any of the Avengers movies, so there are probably going to be a few things wrong.

Also, sorry for the bad fight scenes.

Percy's limp body splashed into the ocean, large waves of water rolling away. 

Her eyes were still closed, her arms and legs floating around her, bubbles of air blowing out of her nose. Her body slowly sunk down into the the deep depths of the ocean. A subtle light seethed from her skin, bubbles of steam floating up towards the sky. Sharks,  fishes and all sorts of underwater creatures gathered around her, patiently waiting for her to wake up. The light faded from the water, turning to a dark murky black, as they floated deeper into the ocean, nearer and nearer to the ocean floor. 

Her eyes fluttered open, her breath quickening. Her arms flailed around her, bubbles escaping her mouth. Her hands clawed at her throat, only for her to remember that she could breathe in the water. 

The fishes who had been waiting so patiently darted away at her panicked movements. 

Percy took in a gulp of air, her breathing evening out. 

"Where am I?" She wondered aloud. She swam upwards towards the light. Her head popped out of the water. She looked around her, but all she could sea was the ocean for miles and miles. 

She tore off her shoes, tied them together, and hung them around her neck. 

"Huh..." She hummed, tying her hair back. She dove back into the water and met a small clownfish. His eyes were huge, and one of his fins were smaller than the other.

"Hello," She greeted. 

Hello. What are you doing down here?  The fish asked. 

Percy grinned. "I don't know. Could you tell me exactly where here is?" 

The fish bobbed up and down. "I can't tell you where here is, but if you go that way, you'll get to Long Island, New York." The fish instructed, pointing his little fin North West. 

Percy smiled thankfully. "Thanks." And with that she dove off.  She kicked her legs, her arms scooping through the water as quickly as possible. 

After what felt like forever, the daughter of Poseidon could see the outline of a city in the distance. The proximity fueling her, she raced towards the land. 

Her foot scraped against the rough rocks, "Ouch." She muttered.  

She stumbled to the shore, her legs weak from the hours of swimming. People shot her weird sympathetic looks, but she ignored them, running to the nearest telephone booth. 

Percy pulled out two quarters that she had put in her shoes, and pushed them into the slot. She dialed a number, and put the phone up to her ear. 

The phone clicked, "Hello?" 

Percy grinned, "Hello, is this Pepper Potts?" 

"It is...? Excuse me, who are you and how did you get this number." A woman asked.

"I'm Percy Jackson. I'm on the Avengers initiative with Mr. Stark." Percy replied. "You haven't happened to have heard from anyone else in the Avengers, have you? 'Cus I kind of fell out of the plane." 

"Uh, no I haven't. What do you mean you fell out of a plane? Are you in New York? Do you want to come to the Stark tower?" Pepper asked, recognizing the youth in Percy's voice.

Percy stopped to consider it for a moment, and nodded. "Sure. I'll head over there right now." With that she hung up. She walked out of the phone booth, and started looking for a bus stop.
