Lauren Xavier doesn't seem to fit in anywhere. She's not a mutant, but she was raised by them. She might be a demigod, but only a minor one, with no real place at camp. Sure, she has friends, like any other kid. She has hobbies. Things she likes and doesn't like. Things she's afraid of. So why did she feel like the outcast in any and every situation? She wanted to try to figure it all out. She really did. But she needed more time. Time she most likely didn't have.
Cristina Hestia Love was a mechanic, young as she is. The Little Mechanic. That's what they used to call her, back when she was in that place. How she hated what they had done to her. What she had become because of it. But maybe something good can be made from something bad. Maybe she can make it up to her brother, and sisters and give them a real family. With real parents who cared. Maybe. But she still needs a little more time.
Caster and Pollux Lancaster did what they could for their mother, not that she cared. She was drunk most of the time, or in rehab. The two brothers, twins, still loved her with everything they had despite the foster homes they had ended up in because of her. The scars they had because of her. They had the option to leave. To go to camp and live with their father. And they did, when she was in rehab. But as soon as she was sent home they were hers and only hers. That is until they have to choose. Save camp or save mom. They needed more time to decide. If they could just have a little more time with their mom. And a little more time with each other.
What happens when these four, and many others like them, come together to start a band. Will they be able to help each other and keep each other afloat... and alive?

Peter Parker and Percy Jackson meet at Midtown High School. Their worlds soon collide in an unexpected way. When an important person is taken hostage, what secrets will be divulged?
[Short Story: 9 chapters long]
Percy Jackson timeline is about the same: set after BOO. Trials of Apollo have not occurred and Apollo is not missing nor mortal. Leo is only gone for a week before he returns with Calypso. Percy and Annabeth are 17 as of the end of the Second Giant War.
Avengers timeline is far less accurate: Civil War doesn't happen. Peter Parker is currently 17 and is just starting to work with the Avengers. S.H.I.E.L.D. is still operational under Director Fury. Wanda is not in this story. Wakanda has yet to be uncovered. Loki does not appear in this story but has been forgiven for his attack on Earth upon discovering he was mind-controlled. The Stark Tower is under reconstruction to become the Avengers Tower. The Avengers facility is not in this story.
