Brothers

2015 Part One

May 2015

"Parker, Captain Bryant wants to see you," Commander Jones states entering the barracks.

"Yes sir," Percy replies before following the man to the Captain's office. When they get there Percy recognized Agent Hill talking to Captain Bryant.

"Parker, thanks to Agent Hill, you now have 96 hours of leave to help her out, I expect you back here Saturday ready at 06:00 for training," Captain Bryant explains.

"Yes sir," Percy replies saluting. He then follows Agent Hill outside to a Quinjet. "Ok what's going on?" Percy asks, "Is it the Avengers?"

"Yes, they'll explain when we get there," Hill replies.

"So, what happened?" Percy asks when he arrives at the Avengers Tower, "And this better be a potentially world ending crisis because I was in the middle of something very important."

Stark raises an eyebrow, "We don't need your help, you can go back to kissing your girlfriend or whatever."

"Well Hill seems to think you do because she pulled me out of boot camp to bring me here," Percy snaps back.

"You're in the army?" Steve says in shock.

"Navy, I'm training to be a SEAL," Percy replies, "Now can we get on to what happened."

"We were attacking a HYDRA base trying to find Loki's Scepter in Sokovia, and we were attacked by two enhanced individuals. One boy with super speed and a girl with telepathic abilities," Captain America explains.

"Cap also called me out on my language," Stark interrupts and Steve sighs.

"As I was saying, we secured the Scepter and returned to the tower. Then someone decided to mess around with the Scepter," Captain America says giving Stark a look, "and apparently tried to integrate it with AI technology. He was successful, so now an evil robot is on the lose in the internet."

"Ok," Stark says interrupting, "I was trying to create a global peacekeeping AI for the next time aliens came." Percy nods, it would make their job a lot easier.

"Anyways, now we're going to intercept a friend of Strucker's, Ulysses Klaus," Steve explains.

They arrive at Klaus' cargo ship and Percy watches from above as Stark, Cap, and Thor advance on Ultron.

Soon, it all goes south and Percy finds himself fighting Klaus's men. Then he senses the girl come up behind him. He turns around.

Percy finds himself at Camp Half-Blood, the camp is in flames, and everything sounds muted. He spots Annabeth walking towards him, she's smiling. "What's going on?" Percy asks.

"We're done with the gods, don't you remember? You were the one who suggested it. We're going to march on Olympus, we're going to replace them," Annabeth replies her voice giddy.

"They'd kill us all!" Percy exclaims.

"They wouldn't, they've become too attached to us. Plus they need their pawns," Annabeth replies.

"Where is everyone, where's Chiron and Dionysus?" Percy asks looking around at the abandoned camp.

"Everyone's wait for us at the boarder, Camp Jupiter is there too. We took care of the old centaur, and that wine god fled to Olympus after he saw his fate," Annabeth explains, "Are you sure you didn't hit your head? We did all of this together." The two hear the sound of the conch horn. "Come on, " Annabeth starts walking, "That would be the Hunters, for their sake I hope Thalia changed her mind." The two walk to Thalia's pine tree where the rest of the two camps are assembled, Percy starts to feel himself lose control of his body.
