Percy works with Tony Stark

13. Fightt

"Percy, get here now, there's mutants attacking," Maria said as I picked up the phone.

"Ok, ok, going right now," I said as I slipped on my shoes.

When I got there, there were 3 mutants trying to smash the buildings and the Avengers were frantically flying and running around to try and prevent the destruction.

It looked like they were having a hard time holding back because they were getting pretty pushed around. But knowing the backlash that they get if even a single building gets hit, they were definitely trying to avoid that.

I ran into a building and located the stairs to the roof. "COMING THROUGHH" I screamed as I launched myself off the roof onto the mutant's giant head.

Hmm, this was reminding me of the minotaur. "Hey ugly," I provoked, as I slammed my blade on its shoulder. 

clang. Hmm, it only rebounded and the blade didn't sink in. I jumped off his head and rolled on the ground. It went to hit the nearest building with a swing of its fist, but I took my chance to jam my blades on its ankles.

"How-?" Captain America asked as he ran towards me. The mutant fell sideways as they tripped over their feet, effectively avoiding the building. I shrugged as we ran to the fallen mutant.

Iron skin? I wondered as I knocked on their arm.

"Get off of me," they snarled as they struggled to get up. I noticed there were dents as I looked closer. Cap's vibranium shield was definitely the culprit there. But their struggle was in vain as the cut was so deep their tendons might have been completely severed.

"You won't be getting up after that," I said. "But if your skin is like metal, why isn't is gray?" This completely went against the laws of everything. Come on, a huge metal guy?

Steve was eyeing me but I ran off to the next mutant and he followed. I saw Ironman shooting between the second and third one with lasers from the sky. Black Widow was grappling with the second one and Loki was fighting the third. Banner wasn't here because then destruction couldn't be avoided. The arrows whizzing towards us was definitely Clint. I decided to go with the nearest one so I ran behind the mutant that was trying to push Natasha down.

I went in to punch him but my fist was blocked. However, that freed up his right side and Natasha took the opening. She jammed her knife between their ribs and sent them staggering back.

"Why are you here," she asked me as she retook the offensive.

"To help," I answered as I copied her and raised my set of knives.

"Stop talking and take care of this already," Steve said as he flung his shield to hit their head. They dodged the shield but a knife came flying at their head right after from my close left.

"Holy- a little warning next time?" I asked shocked. The blade was met with another narrow dodge. It was my turn next so I also sent one of my blades their way. They surprisingly dodged even though the force behind it was not low. I admit I may have gotten a little annoyed and might have made a rash decision. I immediately threw my second, and last knife towards them again, but with even more force. It flew out of my hands and shot out as fast as a bullet.

But they still dodged it. Not only that, they actually caught it. "Seriously?" I exclaimed. "Ugh, your turn Captain." I passed off to Steve.

By that time, he got his shield back and flung it out again. Natasha didn't wait as she sent one of her many knives flying hidden behind it. 

As expected, the shield was dodged easily, but we waited to see if Nat's dagger would make it through their defense. They froze as it got close but snatched it out of the air at the speed of light. "At least we know their ability now?" I joked.
