Did I know what I just agreed to? Not really. Did I know that I want to help them? Definitely. So we followed Coulson, Skye, and Simmons back to their car. We slipped inside quietly and Annabeth curled into my side tiredly. Thalia made small talk with Simmons as she explained how she was a tree for a large portion of her life. I looked out the window towards the ocean as Anna slept. Coulson eventually got my attention.

"Percy, we have a file full of 'crimes' that you've committed. Would you mind explaining what happened for each?" he asked.

"Sure, I guess." i answered.

"The first one it has you down for is kidnapping your mother."

"She got kidnapped on our vacation to Montauk by a Minotaur." I said quietly.

"Got kidnapped by a biker and was found holding a gun in self defense."

"Was fighting Ares with a sword. A gun is just what the mortals saw."

"Jumped off the St. Louis Arch and survived."

"Son of Poseidon. No water can hurt me unless it's poisonous or semisolid."

"Blew up a school classroom." 

"That was empousai. Vampires. Me and my friend Rachel got blamed."

"Got sighted in Colorado later that year."

"We were using the Labyrinth. We couldn't control where we came out."

"Blew up Mount St. Helens."

"That was an explosion due to my powers. They supercharged the place and it blew up."

"Okay. Spotted fighting on top of Mount Tamalpais."

"Saving Annabeth and Artemis from Atlas and again when Kronos possessed my friend Luke."

"Blew up a cruise ship."

"We were trying to stop Kronos from coming back."

"Then Manhattan happened."

"A god called Morpheus caused every mortal or non-clear seeing person to sleep in Manhattan and the surrounding cities. Every halfblood went to war on the bridges or any entrance to the city."

"What about the fight around the Empire State?"

"That I can't say, but it was really important that it didn't get overthrown. That's where we defeated Kronos."

"Then it says you were missing for most of your senior year."

"Yeah. My aunt Hera took my memories and sent me out west to the Roman camp. Her form of getting the camps to bond. I went on a mission with my friends Frank and Hazel that I made there. We went to Alaska to get the eagle, the sign of their military power, and fought a war there. Then my friends, Leo, Jason, and Piper and my girlfriend Annabeth came and we went on our quest to save the world. We traveled to Greece to stop Gaea from waking up and we made a mess in Italy when me and Anna fell into Tartarus. We got back in Greece and fought Gaea there. I got a nosebleed, started the end of the world, got slapped back to camp, and fought a war there last week. It's been kinda relaxing since then." I told him. He whistled in shock.

"That's a lot of war for someone so young." Coulson said in respect. "You've got a lot of courage."

I nodded to him and the car parked in a hanger. Coulson slipped out and sent Daisy and Simmons off to do whatever they did here. He led us to the lab, where a curly haired brunette was working on something.

"Hey Fitz, we got some new weapons for you to make. Two lightweight swords, a lightweight dagger, and a spear." Coulson called. The guy nodded and went off to start working on his blueprints.  We followed him around the base while he explained what things were here for. 

"And this is my office. If you need anything while you're here, you can come see me if i'm free."

Thalia and Nico glanced at me and Annabeth.

"We might need soundproof rooms so that your agents can sleep at night. Our nightmares get really bad." Annabeth said quietly. He nodded and sent us off to the angry looking Chinese woman he had introduced as Melinda May and had warned us to only call her May, not Cavalry for some reason. Maybe a past war or something like that. We wondered around base until it was apparently midnight, because the only agent we saw up were Fitz and Simmons, who everyone just called FitzSimmons, probably because of how good they worked together, like two halves of a whole. I wondered how camp was doing in the absence of four of its oldest campers. Travis and Connor were probably pulling pranks on the Demeter cabin, Travis trying to get Katie Gardner's attention while Connor just laughed. I sighed. I honestly missed my friends from Camp Half-blood and Camp Jupiter. Reyna, Frank, Hazel, Leo, Jason, Piper, Grover, Travis, Connor, Will, and as much as I hate to admit it, Clarisse and Coach Hedge. I wondered what they were doing right now. Were they still repairing camp or were they having fun? I finally sat down against a wall by myself, as we had eventually split up around one thirty, and looked at the ceiling as I fell asleep.
