The Daughter of the Gods Book 1: A New Beginning

Chapter 12: Atlantia

After quickly taking a shower, I walked out to the living room in a ocean colored dress that I created using water since I hated all the dresses Tony had picked out for me. The dress had a turtleneck that had an open back, open shoulders, and the skirt dropped just past my knees. As I stepped into the living room, I saw that everyone was already ready. All eyes turned to me and I saw jaws drop open.

"Yeah, Yeah." I said waving them off, " I look very pretty. Its a siren and a daughter of Aphrodite thing...so what is the plan for today."

Steve snapped out of the stun expression and began to explain that I would stand off to the side while the team would explain who I was and my story. Then they would invite me up to answers questions. They told me if I felt uncomfortable, they would pull me out of there. I knew they were saying that because they worried about me being a 13 who has seen more death in the last 2 years then most people see in a lifetime.

I walked into the room with Steve in front of me and Natasha and Clint on either side of me. Everyone were wearing their uniforms except Tony who was wearing a normal suit which made sense with his uniform being the Iron Man suit. I zoned out until Steve began to talk about my history. I could see a lot of people looking in horror at what I went through. When it was getting close to introducing me and telling the people that the Siren aka me would be joining the Avengers, I began to really focus on Steve's speech.

"Now many of you are probably why I told you this and how I know this. The answer is the same to both questions. The Siren will be joining the Avengers." After Steve said this, the reporters went crazy. He was able to get them to calm down before he continued. "Please welcome the newest Avenger, The Siren but to her friends and family, Atlantia Brooks." I stepped to the mic as the attention and applause turned toward me.

"I never considered being an Avengers but with my history, I know I am a good fit. I know a lot of you have a lot of questions but I will first answer the question that you all burning to know. How old am I?" I heard chuckles from a lot of the reporters. " To answer that question I am 13." Once I said that, all hell broke loose. I could hear strings of questions being called out. I looked at Steve who looked at Natasha who shouted everyone to be quiet. At her voice, everyone calmed down since she is quite scary. I thanked her and turned to a reporter to get my first question.

Once the conference ended, we all immediately returned to the tower. When we got back to the tower and into the living room, I immediately kicked off my shoes, made them go back to my room using magic. Hecate as a mom is really cool. I also changed my outfit to a more causal outfit before walking over to the couch and plopped down on top of it. The other Avengers looked very surprised at the ease I casually used the powers.

"How are you guys still surprised." I asked, "Thor introduced me as the daughter of every Greek, Roman, Norse, and Egyptian god or goddess. You had to have figured out I could probably do anything I wanted." Before any of them could respond, Nick Fury walked in.

" Avengers I have a mission for you guys. Suit up."
