Percy Jackson's fate

6. Uncertain...

Percy's POV/Nightmare

I woke up and the first thing I noticed is the light coming through my window. I got ready for the day and walked outside of my cabin and towards the Dining Pavilion, greeting many campers along the way. I sit down at the Poseidon table and ate my breakfast but soon noticed it had no taste. The next thing I know is all of the campers including the seven surround me, yell and scream at me. Saying how I betrayed them and wishing that I had stayed in Tartarus. But what did I do?? I tried to speak but nothing came out, I couldn't speak! I curled into myself and tried to block out their voices. But they won't go away!! My breathes are getting faster and I just want them to stop yelling at me. "Please, please, please stop...!" I brokenly whispered. I couldn't breathe!!? Suddenly it all stopped... and I was just in a void, I stand up and walk forward only to walk into a wall. I reach my hand forward and touched the wall, but stopped. As soon as I gently touched it, it started crack and the crack spread everywhere the until it shattered. Nothing stopped me as I fell and fell and fell...into nothing.

End of nightmare...

I open my eyes with a gasp and sit up as fast as possible. My breathes are still unsteady and I realize I'm crying, I get up and go to the bathroom attached to my bedroom. I walk up to the mirror, seeing my red puffy eyes I decide to take a long shower to calm down. After my shower I got dressed in a sea green t-shirt and blue jeans. The clock next to the bed says 5:23 am. I don't think anyone will be up at this time so I decided to find the kitchen and make some blue pancakes for everyone as a thank you for letting me stay with them. As I'm walking through the hallways I nearly jump out of my skin when I heard a voice come from nowhere saying "Good morning Mr. Jackson."

"Um... hi? Who's there??" I asked the strange voice.

"I am Jarvis, Mr. Stark's AI system." The voice or Jarvis said.

"Oh cool, I guess um say, Jarvis where is the kitchen?" I asked hoping he could lead me there, cause I'm lost.

"You just need to head straight forward and take two lefts and then a right and you'll be in the kitchen" Jarvis informed.

"Thank you... Jarvis" I said.

"Of course Mr. Jackson"

I winced at that and said "Um... Jarvis please do not ever call me Mr. Jackson again, Percy is fine."

"Of course... Percy" Jarvis said.

Finally I made it to the kitchen and started to dig around looking for blue dye and pancake mix, then I started making the batter and cooking the eggs. As I'm cooking I started to hum "How far I'll go" from Moana. I was almost done with everything when I heard someone clear their throat behind me. I spun around quickly almost dropping the plate on the floor. It was that Steve guy, he was wearing jogging pants and a tight fit t-shirt, does he not own any shirts that fit him??

"Good morning" He said.

"Um... morning. Did you go to the gym or something?" I asked.

"Sort of, there's a track field a few floors down, what are you doing up so early?" His face was serious.

"Well as a fellow soldier you know how nightmares are..." I said.

"Ah, understood so what are you making then? It smells really good." He asked helping me set the table.

"Oh, just some pancakes, eggs and bacon. I just wanted to do something to say thanks for letting me stay here with you guys." I explained while I placed all the food on the table.

When I was done I felt a hand on my shoulder as Steve told me "Percy, you don't have to thank us, we would help anyone in your situation. Besides Tony obviously took a liking to you and he rarely does that, also you and Loki know each other so maybe he might listen to you."

Steve left to get the others since its almost 6:40 am.

Steve's POV

On my way to get the others I think about Percy, he's only 19 years old and has done so many things he shouldn't have had to do. Not to mention that the people he cared for deeply betrayed him so easily. Sighing, I knock on Bruce's door. The door opened and Bruce disheveled head came into view. "Good morning Steve, what is it?" He asked.

"I'm getting everyone, breakfast is ready, Percy made a lot of food, so hope your hungry." I answered him.

"Oh! Okay thanks Steve I'll see you down there."

I turned and went to Nat's door and knocked on it and heard her ask "Who is it?"

"It's me, Steve breakfast is ready." I said

" Alright I'll be down soon." I heard.

Clint was in the gym murdering some punching bags when I found him. "Clint" He stopped punching and turned to me.

"Whats up Cap?" He asked.

"I'm getting everyone for breakfast" I said before adding "Percy made food for everyone."

He looked hesitant but said "Ohh... Um about Percy, Steve are you sure we can trust him? I mean he kinda just showed up out of nowhere, and Thor obviously does not like him plus he's a friend of Loki and frankly I don't trust anyone who knows Loki."

I thought about what he said for a moment before telling him "I understand but he hasn't done anything that indicate he's bad, we can keep an eye on him but lets at least give him the benefit of the doubt, okay?"

"Fine but I will keep and eye on him." He said leaving.

I pass Thor on my way to Tony's room and tell him breakfast is ready. Reaching Tony's room I heard talking inside and knocked on the door. I was not really expecting Stephan Strange to answer the door though. Much less in only underwear."Oh hello Steve, what is it?" He asked me.

"Um, uh breakfast is r-ready, I didn't know you were staying over."

"Ah, yes I missed Tony so I took a break from my training to come here and spend some time with him. We will be up in a bit."

"Okay, see you." With that I left them to go eat my own food.
