Percy P.O.V.
It's been 6 months since the Giant War, and life couldn't get any better.
Leo finally made it back with Calypso and also may have broken a rib from a hysterical Piper hugging him. The two camps made up as a result of Reyna, Coach Hedge, and Nico returning the Athena Parthenon and now there's even a portal in each camp that allows demigods to travel from one camp to the other.
The gods offered us immortality, but we couldn't bear the thought of watching all my friends die, so they gave the seven, Nico, and Reyna invincibility. It was basically the Curse of Achilles without taking a dip in the River Styx and a small weak spot since someone (coughZeuscough) is paranoid of giving us too much power.
After Nico told me that I wasn't his type, he came out to camp as well and became a tiny bit more open. He started to date Will Solace because apparently he's his type.
Anyways I woke up to the sound of the horn for Breakfast. Annabeth was next to me still asleep. Her curls were sprawled all over her pillow . Suddenly she woke up, her grey calculating eyes staring back at me .
"Good morning Wisegirl." I said smirking. "Lets go get Breakfast."
She groaned and pulled the sheets up to cover her face. "Can't we stay for 5 for minutes?" She pleaded.
"But Annieee," I whined. "I'm starving!" I gave her my best baby seal eyes. "One. Don't call me Annie. Two. Don't give me baby seal eyes, you know I can't resist them!" She exclaimed. I jutted out my lip bit at all budging .
"Fine. Let's go." She surrendered and got up to get dressed. I cheered and got up too.
We went to the bathroom and brushed our teeth. While Annie brushed her hair, I went to go put on my clothes. Today was just like any other, so a simple camp shorts and shorts. I tied my sneakers and waited for Annabeth. She came out looking as beautiful as ever in a camp shirt and shorts. Her blonde curls were tamed in a loose ponytail and her dagger strapped to her side.
"Come on Seaweed brain lets go." She grabbed my hand and we began route for the Dining Hall.
On our way we talked about random subjects, mostly about how Annabeth needed to go to Olympus to meet with her mother. She needed to run a few blueprints by her before she gave the final word on building the new temples. Since we were going to start college in New Rome in about 2 months, she wanted to finish up a couple things before then.
"Well I think I'm going to visit my mom today anyways." I said scratching the back of my neck. "That's a great idea. After I'm finished with my mom, I'll join you guys. I've been wanting to see Estelle." She says.
We finally get to the Dining hall and almost everyone is there already. We head over to our table and see that everyone's there already. Chiron made an exception and let's the Seven sit together. After the war, it's turned into to sort of a tradition for all of us to have breakfast together. Frank, Hazel, and even sometimes Reyna will come and eat with us. Today it's just us seven, Nico and Will and Calypso.Grover was out somewhere in another state dealing with a bunch of angry nymphs so his appt was empty.
"Well finally you two love birds decide to grace us with your presence." Piper snickers as we take a seat. "We were starting to think you were busy." She trails off. Hazel starts to fan herself and Jason rolls his eyes at his girlfriends antics.
"Ha ha very funny Pipes, but may I remind you we weren't the ones who disappeared for a whole 2 hours in to woods after Capture the Flag was over." Annabeth answers mock glaring at Piper. Piper glares backs and Jason turns more red than a strawberry.
"We got lost!" He exclaims trying to cover it up.
Our table laughs and we eat breakfast. Jokes are told, stories swapped, and it all seems perfect.
After breakfast we all went our separate ways and Annabeth and I went back to our cabin to grab her blueprints. Chiron agreed to let us go and had Argus take us.
On the way there, we sat in comfortable silence as the soft music on the radio played. I laid my head on Annie's shoulder as she read a book.
We got to the Empire State Building first and I kissed her goodbye promising to see her in a bit. Then about 2 minutes later we got to my mom's apartment building. I thanked Argus and went in.
I finally got to the familiar red door and took a deep breath and knocked. I heard shuffling inside and finally my mom opened the door. Her brown hair was down as always with a bit of flour in it. Her brown eyes shined with the same sparkle they always had. She was wearing an apron and still she looked so adorable.
"Percy! You came back!" She hugged me so hard, it rivaled one of Tyson's hugs.
"Hey mom." I said simply while hugging her back. "I promised I'd come back to hang out with you guys and Estelle."
"Well come in, I just put some cookies in the oven."
I walked into the familiar apartment and smelled the comforting scent of her homemade blue chocolate chip cookies. Estelle was sitting on the carpet in the living room. She was in a pink onesie with bears all over it and her eyes were fixed on the TV. As soon as I walked in her head snapped in my direction. She grinned and signaled for me to pick her up.
"Hey there Elle, I missed you." I picked her up and she started to play with my Camp necklace.

After about an hour Paul came home from work. He was happy to see me too and congratulated me on saving the world. Half and hour after that, Annabeth arrived and my mom practically suffocated her to death via hug. We talked and ate blue cookies.
"Hey mom can Annabeth and I take Estelle to the park?" I asked her with my infamous baby seal eyes.
"Well if it's alright with Annabeth."
I turned my baby seal eyes toward her and she rolled her eyes.
"Okay Seaweed brain lets go."
I first bumped and went to get Estelle's things. Mom gave me a baby pink diaper bag with diapers, a bib, wipes, a bottle, some Gerber, and finally a pacifier. We got her stroller and headed out.
"Okay be back in a bit." I said and waved at them. Annabeth followed behind me and we went to Central Park. I think people thought Estelle was our child because an old couple scoffed at the sight of us. I couldn't care less, but Annie glared at them and trust me you don't wanna be on the receiving end of one of those.
Natasha P.O.V.
Fury called an emergency Avengers meeting. Apparently it was so important that he needed all of us there.
I took seat next to Clint and waited for the meeting to start. The only people missing were Stark and Fury.
Finally Fury walked in, but there were no signs of Stark, even though this was his tower.
"Where's Stark?" Fury barked clearly angry for him not being here. "I told him to be here on time."
"No need to get your panties in a wad Director, I'm right here." He walked in as fashionable as ever with his sunglasses on his face.
"Take a seat Stark." Fury ordered. "We have a serious spotting of a suspected terrorist. Perseus Jackson. Wanted for blowing up multiple schools as well as a school bus. He also blew up the St. Louis Arch, dumped his class into a shark tank, and even took his own mother hostage. All this and more and he's only 18."
I couldn't believe it. I mean an 18 year old terrorist?
"Director are you sure about this kid? I mean he's only 18?" Rogers protested reading the file.
"Oh I'm sure Rogers. Now I need all of you to suit up. Widow and Rogers. You will approach him and attempt to apprehend him without using force. Barton will be in close range ready for a signal. Stark you'll be in the air scouting any accomplices. Banner will be with Barton in hiding just in case the big guy needs to make an appearance. Thor is coming later, he's finishing things in Asgard."
"Do we all need to go? How powerful can he possibly be?" Stark said scoffing.
"Trust me Stark, you'll know when you meet him." With that he dismissed us.
