Just to be clear, X-O-E is pronounced Z-O-E even though if you listen to it it's pronounced C-O-E or K-O-E but it's supposed to be a Spanish/Greek name pronounced as X-O-E and her full name is X-O-E-L-E-N-E K-U-P-L-E-N-D. X-O-E pronounced as Z-O-E. L-E-N-E pronounced as -L-E-A-N-E and K-U-P-L-E-N-D pronounced as C-U-P. L-E-N-D pronounced as L-E-N-D. Okay that's all, bye! If you need help still pronouncing it since it's come to my attention that ya'll do, just think of it as Zolean Cuplend. 😂 that doesn't even look right but that's how ya'll think it should be spelled so I guess but imma keep spelling it the way it's supposed to be spelled. Ok, bye!
#527 in Civilwar, thanks guys!
Percy's POV
"Did you see the news." Wanda asked. Percy looked up from the TV screen that he was looking at. It was on mute and he was just staring at it. He scooted over so Wanda could sit down. "I see you haven't really been doing anything." She said, offering him coffee. He smiled an grabbed the cup. "Just a lot on my mind." Wanda nodded. "I know what that's like." Percy tilted his head. "I meant that I know what it's like to have a lot on your mind. My brother died in Sokovia, where I met you. Anyway, it's always on my mind." "How do you deal with it?" Percy asked. Wanda shrugged. "I don't know, I'm still figuring it out. So, cut the news on, you're gonna want to see this." Percy turned the channel and watched. He was shocked at what he saw. "...Xoelene Kuplend is possibly the most threating being in the world next to, The Hulk, Thor and Ultron..." Percy turned to look at Wanda, who was looking at the screen with interest. "...She is a very strong hero, yes, but dangerous, I mean..." "Let me ask you this, Winston, she came out of nowhere after the rest of these inhumans as S.H.I.E.L.D calls them. I mean, what do we know about her." "What do we know about Percy Jackson!" "Exactly my point! All I'm saying is that the girl just took down a building in Manhattan! She's dangerous!" "That's the same as..."
Wanda hit the mute button for him. The screen was filled with a video of Xoe. She was smiling at the camera and looked like she was as carefree as ever. "Percy, are you okay?" Wanda asked. Percy shook out of his daze. "How did she take down the building?" He asked. Wanda shrugged. "The news said that a few minutes before the building went down, a wolf howled. Does this have something to do with her being..." "A child of Artemis? Probably, yes. But why would she do it?" He asked, a new wave of anger washing over him. "No clue, she's doing a live stream, it's starting in a few minutes. Wanna watch with me?"
They walked into the room where the conference with the secretary was held. Wanda turned on the screen and tuned to the live stream. "Hello, I'm Xoelene Kuplend . You may know me as Winter Wolf. I know that there is a rumor going around that I took down a building in Manhattan. I tell you now, I did not do it. The wolf that was supposedly seen right before the building blew up, was a statue. I don't use wolves, that's dumb. If I were to trademark my crimes, I would be in jail. And plus, I don't do terrorist acts. I know that some of you believe that I am bad, but I'm not. I wouldn't do that to anyone. Innocent people died in that attack! I would never be a part of that. And to prove it, I will tell you exactly who I was with during the attack." Xoe flips the camera to a man walking up toward her. He had long brown hair with a stubble. "I was with the Winter Soldier, Bucky Barnes." The camera goes dead and the last thing that they see is the face of a terrorist. "Percy, why is Xoe hanging out with a terrorist?" Before he could answer, Iron Man and Black Widow walked into the room. "Percy, Wanda, you need to come with us." Natasha said with a sigh. She was wearing her new suite, the same one she had on during the fight with Ares. "The hell we are, why is my friend hanging out with a known terrorist?" Tony put his hand up to stop him from moving. "Calm down, Percy, we just need you to come with us." "Really, because Xoe was just blamed with a terrorist act. And now you want us to come with you?" Wanda stated, getting up from her seat.
"She did do it. With the help of Barnes." Said Natasha. Percy banged his hand on the table. "She did not do it! Xoe is being sucked into Barnes' world! That's a lie! I know Xoe!" "I thought I knew her, too!" Natasha yelled. Everyone turned to her. "Except I didn't and now we need to bring her and Barnes in, so come with us so we can keep you safe." "Safe? I'm safe right here. Wanda and I are safe here." Percy countered. "You're right. You are safe here." Vision said, flying down from the ceiling. "Vision, chill, let us through." Wanda protested. Iron Man sighed. "Alright, Nat, take them." Before either of them knew what was happening, Natasha had wrapped a leg around Percy's neck and pinned him to the ground. He groaned and tossed her off. She rolled and landed on her feet and glared. She tried to charge and kick Wanda but she used her powers to freeze her and throw her across the room. She groaned a tried to get up. Tony rolled his eyes and blasted Wanda in the stomach. She screamed and fell to the ground. Vision flew to her and held her unconscious body in his arms. Percy saw what he had done and scowled. "Sorry, kid. It had to be done, just..." Percy didn't wait for him to finish.
He blasted Tony with a wave of water and then turned it on Vision. They both shot across the room. Natasha punched him in the face and he stumbled back. Blood dripped from his nose. Before he could attack, she kicked him and made him fall to the ground. She then punched him in the face again, knocking him out cold.
