Broken (Percy Jackson/Avengers crossover)

Birthday?

Percy POV- 3 Weeks later

We sat on the sofa, watching the box thing infront of us. I forgot the name. Dad was holding my hand, Nico was holding my other hand, sleeping on my shoulder. I smiled as he snored quietly. After the moving pictures ended, my friends and I decided it was time to go to sleep.Dad was holding Nico, one hand gripping mine. 

'Percy, you do realise that tommorrow is your birthday?' 

'What's a birthday?' I asked. 

'It's the day someone was born. They give them things to the birthday kid out of love' 

'Oh. Do you have a birthday?' Dad nodded. 

'Goodnight, Percy' Dad gave a kiss on my forehead. He smiled and walked into Nico's room. I smiled to myself and fell asleep.

I woke up and yawned. The light made me want to look away. I took a shower, ignoring the drawings on my body. I brushed my teeth and got ready. I ran down the corridors and into the living room. Where were they?

I ran into Dad's room. He wasn't there either. I ran into the kitchen, but all I saw was black. I flicked on the lights and they screamed, 

' Happy Birthday, PERCY!' My friends screamed. Dad came up to me and hugged me. 

'Dad' I said, my head in his shirt. I gave everyone a hug. But Dad a kiss on the cheek. 

'Thank you.' I said.

I looked at the sqishy thing on my plate. It was blue with a fish and sribbles on it.

'What is it?' I asked. 

'It's cake' Steve answered. I looked closer at the scribbles trying read what it says. 

'What does it say?' I said, at last. 

'It says, 'Happy 18th Birthday!' Dad replied. 

'Is 18 old?' 

'Nope' 

'Okay' I said and started to nibble on the cake. Mum was there as well. 

Suddenly a bright light engulfed me and Dad. Scared, I held Dad's hand. When I opened my eyes I was in a building with giants sitting on massive chairs. I squeezed Dad's hand. 

'What is this, Posideon?' The man in the middle said. He had grey-y hair and blue eyes. Like Thalia's. 

'Zeus, I can explain' Dad said. 

'You said that you were in your Palace' he boomed. Where am I? Did the man, or Zeus, say Palace? I looked at the other giants. They were all pretty. They kept on looking at me. The man with yellow hair and blue eyes gasped and whispered something in Zeus's ear. 

'Impossible' He said quietly. 

'Is this true' Dad nodded. 

'Who are they?' I whispered to Dad. 

'They're my family' 

'Are you sure. The man in the middle looks kinda mad' I whispered. Dad smiled, squeezing my hand. 

'Why are we here?' Dad asked. 

'Well, you see brother, The Fates told Hades to release some souls.' Dad's eyebrows raised. 

'Who?' 

'The Seven. Well, the Six' Zeus said, looking at me for my reaction. 

'I thought six was a number' I whispered. 

'It is' Dad said, 'Where are they?' 

'They're at the Towers'

And the next thing I knew, a bright light surronded me...
