Percy POV
Days went by. He's yet to wake. Weeks went by. He went comatose. Months went by. Nothing. I didn't sleep. I hardly ate. I only did because James shoved it in my mouth and didn't move his hand till I ate. If I wasn't by his side, I was in the pool or shower. Everyone tried to get me to sleep or do something else, but I refused to move. It was my fault. He was in this state because I waited too long. If we went in just a day earlier he might not have gone comatose. If I went when James told me he would be awake and arguing that he's fine and he needs to get back to work. If I hadn't been an idiot he would be okay.

Steve POV
To say the least Percy is a lot stronger than us. The bruise on my cheek and chest says so. Bruce went comatose almost two months ago. He was badly infected. Four broken ribs. Both lungs punctured. A shattered collar bone. Three places broken on his right arm. Four on his left. A pretty bad concussion. A broken ankle. A dislocated left shoulder. A fractured back. That was the worst besides the infections. He was beat real bad. Multiple cuts on his face. His chest and back made me throw up. We still have no idea what he used. He was badly malnourished and dehydrated. And he lost about 35% of his blood. Percy was either by his side or in the pool or shower. Anything that happened we took care of it in less than a week. We were all pretty mad and upset that Ultron did this. We let Percy be. And Wanda stayed in case he did want to talk and not punch. He has refused to say anything besides 'no'. He's even punched Wanda but we know it was no where near as hard as he did to the guys but it did leave a bruise for a few days. We were all currently in a conference meeting. "We need to talk about Dr. Banner." We all stood and yelled, "We are not pulling that plug!" He took a step back. He was so surprised that he didn't say a thing for a solid five minutes. We stood there fuming. "O-Okay. Noted. And not ignored. How about Percy. People know he's here. We need him to make an appearance somewhere." Wanda huffed and sat. Peter just left and Tony stood flabbergasted. Bucky had his metal hand clenched. Sam narrowed his eyes and Rhodey looked disgusted. T'challa looked confused. And Natasha looked quite scary. "No." Was all I said and Fury nodded and left. "Who is this Percy?" T'challa turned to me. "Percy is Bruce's nephew and he's been here about seven months. We all have grown extremely attached to him. And Bruce is all he has and he went comatose two months ago." T'challa nodded and seemed to think for a second. "I will have some of my doctors come see him. They are the best of the best." Before I could say anything he left. I sighed and sat. I rubbed my head as a headache was coming.

Natasha POV
Percy was not going in public! Not in his state and most definitely not when Bruce is in a coma. I was furious. Not long after Fury left I stormed out. I went down to a bag as that seemed to be where everyone was going. But I hadn't because I don't really like expressing such anger through hitting something. But today was different. Fury had some nerve saying that Percy needs to be seen. I wrapped my hands. I mean the guy can't be that heartless! Punch. He has to have loved and lost someone at some point! Punch punch. He will not make Percy go out public as a new superhero! Punch. Not under my watch! Punch punch. I did this for a few hours. Furious with Fury. Percy managed to wiggle his way into our hearts. I couldn't believe that I had gained a soft spot for him. We didn't gain a soft spot for him because he told us his story. It's because he's just that likable. He was funny, smart, kind, strong, caring, and quite handsome. Especially since Lady Hestia and Lady Aphrodite blessed him. His eyes. Oh my gosh his eyes! They were still yet raging storms. In his eyes were storms far greater than earth could handle. Yet they were still from pain. They didn't move. Just his eyes confused me. I sighed and cleaned up before I went to make dinner.

T'challa POV
After Steve told me who Percy was I could tell that he was someone that had influenced them greatly. I went to an empty room and called my doctors. After a few minutes of arguing it was established that they would be here tomorrow. I went to see this Percy. I followed JARVIS's directions to the medical area. Outside a door I found a man. His raven black hair every which way. From where I was he seemed to be crying. His hands were in his head and I could see some scars. I stared in wonder of this man. "Are you going to say something or stare at me." I jumped in surprise because he sounded about seventeen or eighteen. "I'm looking for Percy." The man looked up and his eyes were quite...startling. "You found him." I went over closer and stuck my hand out, "T'challa. I was told that Dr. Banner is your uncle?" He nodded, stood and shook my hand. "Yeah, did they also tell you that he's in a coma?" His voice broke at the end. "Did they say it's my fault?" He sat back down and tears streamed down his tanned face. I knew why every got so attached. "Look, I have some doctors from Wakanda. They are the best of the best. They can help him." He looked up at me with his sea green, pink, and orange eyes. This boy may be the death of me. "Thank you!" He flew up at me and buried his head in my shoulder. It took me a second to realize he moved before I hugged him back. He repeated saying thank you. "It's no problem." He released me as he realized what he did. "Sorry!" His eyes widened as he sat down as face palmed.
