Avenging

Percy

I don't even know how long I've been laying here.

Probably a day or so.

I've been sobbing for longer.

"Excuse me?" A woman's voice asked me from behind.

I didn't respond.

"Are you okay?" The same voice asked.

"Do I look okay?" I sobbed.

"No," a manly voice replied.

"Who even are you?" I asked, clearly confused.

"I'm Natasha," the woman's voice said soothingly. "You need to come with us."

"What?" I don't even know these people.

"I'm not leaving her," I said simply.

"Who?" Natasha asked.

"No one," I say quickly.

I sensed sensed someone walk closer.

"Come on kid, we can do this the easy way, or the hard way," a third voice replied.

"I'm not coming with you," I growled through gritted teeth.

"Okay then, the hard way it is," the same voice said.

My body was lifted.

I screamed in agony as the man touched my rib cage.

"Tony, you're hurting him!" Natasha yelled scoldingly.

"Oops."

Tony threw me over his shoulder, causing me to scream again.

"God kid, you act like you broke your rib cage or something," Tony said in an annoyed tone.

"I did," I winced.

"Oops," Tony snorted.

This is going to be a long ride.
