6 Months After Gaea's Fall

*PERCY*

  After the battle with Gaea I sorted everything out with everyone and it actually went great. Apparently Annabeth told me that us going through Tartarus together helped shed light upon the wise girl's eyes and also mine. She told me that while she liked me she wanted something else especially since her fatal flaw of pride was always fighting against us since I had too much power and me well it turned out little old Percy Jackson liked to play both sides of the field. So like that we ended up splitting and  chose to remain friends. I decided to accept unrestricted godhood along with the others and ended up becoming Percy Jackson, son of the seas, prince of the pegasi and god of underdogs, loyalty, surprises and unpredictability. I went to visit mom and found out that she was seven months pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl. I also found out that Hades had given mom and Paul enough money to be considered millionaires and myself I would be a billionaire. Hephaestus gave my mom and I two three story homes right beside each other and also a beach manor in Montauk. Aphrodite after finding out that I play for both sides gave me the ability to charmspeak along with training from the goddess of charmspeak herself aka miss Piper Mclean. Zeus surprisingly gave me safe passage through the sky.

  After all that I went to my new home to find it two rooms stock with games systems both retro and new and another with weapons and there was a note that said 'this is your gift. enjoy it.'-Ares, Apollo and Hermes. Speaking of the sun god his twin had 'allowed' me to become the guardian of the hunt which meant I would have to drop everything just to help a group of man-hating women. With that she also blessed me so that if I ever pick up a bow and arrow I wouldn't shoot myself. But wait this isn't this icing on the cake yet, after a week of playing nothing but mortal kombat and Deadpool the fates decided to visit and grant me any wish in existence since I overcame everything they threw at me and since my mind was in a dark place I asked for the ability to access the skills, powers and looks of every mortal kombat character ever made. They looked at each other for a second but grinned as they said "You'll need it for the future so.. what eves." Their eyes glowed white before they sent a blast of energy my way and jabbed me right in the middle of my chest causing me to drop to the ground.

  After the pain subsided and only my muscles were sore my guardian sense began to kick as I groan and cursed wondering where in the dam country could they be right now. Ha! Dam well time to be serious and as I began to focus I could see then and I began to wonder I had the ability to pull a Raiden. I began to smirk before raising my hand to the sky as I yelled "TO Artemis!" With that my body was cover in a sea green shade of lighting and as my surroundings changed I felt like I was just fried and as felt a bit of nausea like with shadow travel. once it stopped. Soon after I was able to regain my balance and it appeared that I had reappearing in the middle of a battle and everyone was fighting including Artemis who seemed to be struggling with... Wait for Kelli, Tammi, a chimera and Echidna. The monsters had their backs towards me while Artemis seemed too busy fighting to notice me. I uncapped riptide and began decimating the monsters like they were never there unless you counted the gold dust.

Now all that was left were the hunters and Thalia, Artemis and Echidna and her baby and knowing I couldn't hit her I decided to use another ability. I feel the air shift around me as I feel my palm become hot and in it was actually a sea-green hellfire fireball. I was surprised that worked but wasting no time I aimed at Echidna and threw the fireball only to have it actually hit her directly on the southern belle floppy hat that she was wearing. As she screamed she got consumed by the scorching  flames before vanishing leaving nothing but the ash of the hat.  After that Thalia the goddess of sarcasm, sass, attitude and maidenhood along with Annabeth goddess of curiosity and unspoken thoughts came up to me shell shocked. I only chuckled as I said "Tada."

*NATASHA ROMANOFF*

  As I walk into Fury's office I could tell he was frustrated but not over what. He looked up as I stood on the other side of his desk and then threw a file on the desk before pinching his nose as he said "Six years, agent Romanoff, six years and this boy has escaped SHIELD I mean come on what are we doing here?" I raised an eyebrow because I had never seen director Fury this worked up. After I read the file I wasn't shocked to see why he was he like this as I said "So where do I come into this Director?" He looked up with a serious face a said "You and the avengers get this hydrokinetic Perseus Jackson by any means and I mean do not come back without at least a single hair on that kid." At that I knew fury was serious about it and I couldn't help but wondered a kid with jet black hair and sparkling green eyes could be so dangerous. According to the file the kid was currently living near the upper east side of Manhattan in a three story sea green house and I can't help but wonder how is this even happen.

  I decided to head down there without the others first to scout things out and I end up watching the kid from an alley and what I saw surprised me on many level. There was kid who I presumed was Perseus Jackson due to the long black hair, and even from here I could see that his sea green eyes as it held a sparkle. He seemed to be looking at me but I ignored the stare causing the boy to get up and walk over to where I was hiding. I hid my breathing and got ready to fight incase anything happened. "Look just come on out I just got stood up for a date and I don't need to be fighting today." Shocked at his words I stumbled causing a loud sound to occur causing me to walk out of the shadows and into the light.

*PERCY*

  This woman was beautiful she had fiery red hair, deep brown eyes that seemed to be predicting my next move. She held two guns in her hand causing me to say "Feisty, but I've seen worse now tell me your name and why your here." I put a little power in that part as I used charmspeak and for a second her eyes dilated before returning to normal as she said "My name is Natasha Romanoff and I am apart of SHIELD an agency that monitors almost everything and everyone and you Perseus Jackson have been wanted for six years and many crimes." She sounded robotic but normal as she said that and I began to make a mental connection. I could get information on what I needed and I could be off almost all of the gods radar except Artemis. I added more power as I spoke again "What are the possibilities you bring me back assuming that is what your here for?" She then stiffened as she said "There is a small chance of death, another small chance of joining the Avengers and finally a large chance of becoming a part of SHIELD."

I nodded and then said "For now forget this conversation and then take me into SHIELD while saying I came willingly." She nodded and her body shivered as if coming out of a trance like state, agent Romanoff then says "This way then Perseus." I follow her as I say "It's Percy not Perseus."
