Perseus Jackson; nineteen year-old who was supposedly suppose to be finishing his second year of college by now. Or not. Matter of fact, he never got to go in the first place. College never started when he was eighteen. But something DID start the year before that, alright. The end of the world. That's right. The dying cities. The riots. The crumbling of society. The undead. And all Percy could do was just at least ATTEMPT to survive the oncoming onslaughts of walkers, the limited amounts of food and water, and his insanity itself. Armed with only a handgun, skateboard, and a bronze sword named Riptide, how could he possibly even survive? A Percy Jackson AU. And despite what the title says, in this AU, Percy, nor his half-blood friends, are not demigods, but regular human beings. And I use 'regular' lightly. IMPORTANT: there are page/section breaks that are styled as [WARNING][WARNING][WARNING] instead of the ..... that you would see in other stories/pieces of writing with the intention to add more to the element of the story. It was a decision I made years ago, but now looking back and having it brought to my attention, I now understand how it can be misleading and can be incorrectly interpreted as a trigger warning. I don't think I'll go back and change it because it seems that the majority is okay with it and because this work was produced years ago, but I did want to give people a heads up!

Everyone is born with a square on their wrist, called a soul mark. The first time you hear your soulmate say your name, the square is filled with their favorite color. 16 year old Stephen Strange is not very interested in finding his soulmate. But that changes after his soul mark is filled with someone's favorite color. Though, Stephen doesn't know who the color belongs to. At the same time the Strange family takes in 16 year old Tony Stark, a kid who's parents were brutally murdered in a car crash. He always thought his soulmate was going to save him, be his hero. His soulmate ends up being totally oblivious, but a hero nonetheless. - - - All characters owned by Marvel (or Disney I guess), I only own the story.
