Chapter 3: Welcome To S.H.I.E.L.D
A/N: Woo! Finally got my first review. Shout out to Black Shadow Tigress for being my first review and for knowing the god who flashed into Fury's office was indeed Hermes the messenger god, and the god of thieves. *Evil Laughter* Cliffhanger at the end of the chapter. Well here's chapter 2. ENJOY! Take a chance. Review!

-Annabeth P.O.V-
"Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division, also known as S.H.I.E.L.D. We deal with the weird and take care of threats that are to big for any one nation to deal with." Spider-Man explained to us. "My boss, Nick Fury, wants to talk to you in two days. You'll get a location by tomorrow."
Before I could give him our answer, he swung away on a web towards the city. "Well that was weird, and that's saying something coming from me." Percy joked.
"Shush seaweed brain." I responded giving him a glare. We went back to my apartment and went up to my room to try to make sense of what today was. Right before we could actually talk Poseidon flashed into the room.
"Dad!? What are you doing here?" Percy inquired.
"Sadly this isn't a visit with good news. Zeus wants you to join this team of individuals with different talents to fight a new threat to Olympus." Poseidon said.
"Oh great, another threat to Olympus is just what we need." Percy said sarcastically.
Giving Percy another glare I asked Poseidon, "What is the name of this team?"
"They call themselves The Avengers." Poseidon answered. "And they work for an organization called S.H.I.E.L.D."
"So we have to go to their base in two days." I said after putting all the pieces together.
The next day we ended up not going to school, so we could prepare ourselves for the meeting with the Avengers. I did some research and it seems while a month after we saved Olympus, the Avengers saved the world from an alien invasion. How could we not have known there was an alien invasion in Manhattan, I find it weird how it seemed that this piece of information was not giving to us demigods. I feel like Zeus is hiding something for us and I found out that Thor is on the Avengers. The Greek gods have a treaty with the Norse gods not to interfere in each others affair. It seems that the alien invasion was the fault of Thor's brother Loki and I am guessing this threat is affecting both Greek and Norse gods.
There was a note in the door to an office building in Uptown (A/N: Wasn't sure where SHIELD headquarters was located) Manhattan. We took a taxi to the building and was greeted by a lady who said her name was Agent Hill. "This way, Nick Fury is waiting for you." She said as she led us to the elevator.
Once we reached a conference room me and Percy saw a man with a goatee, a blond man who I could have mistaken as a child of Apollo, a man who looked nervous about the amount of people in the room, a lady with hair that might have been even redder than Rachel's, and a man in Norse warrior clothing who I assumed to be Thor because of the hammer strapped to his side. I also assumed the guy with the eye patch who looked like he should be in the Matrix was Nick Fury because of the joke Spider-Man told us. "Hi my name is Percy Jackson and this is Annabeth Chase." Percy said through the silence of the room.
-Tony's P.O.V-
"So Fury." I started "You going to explain why there are two kids here and why you called us all in?"
"Well from what Thor told me there is going to be another threat to Earth and this time its from his realm." Fury responded.
"Aye, For it seems that Loki has escaped from Asgard with the help of the Greeks." Thor said.
"What do you mean by the Greeks?" I asked.
"For is not my place to explain. It should be the job of the Son of Jack." Thor said as he looked at the kid named Percy.
"Which brings us back to the original question, why are these two kids here?" Natasha asked.
The kids looked at each other and started whispering something which I could clearly see was an argument of some kind until the girl named Annabeth shouted "Fine, I'll tell them!"
"Well as you guys may know Norse gods are out there. Well Norse gods aren't the only gods alive. There are Egyptians, Mayans, and in our case the Greek gods are still alive." Annabeth started.
I looked at her questioningly was about to ask where this story was going but Natasha cut me off and urged her to continue.
"Well all the Greek myths are real and the gods are still around. And every now and then they have kids with mortals. Producing demigods like me and Percy."
"So you guys are demigods. Let me guess. Percy is short for Perseus and your a son of Zeus, the Greek god of lightning just like thunder pants over there. Can you shoot lightning?" I joked breaking into a grin.
"Well my name is short for Perseus because he was the only guy in Greek history who actually had good luck but my father is the Poseidon." Percy said after face palming. "And before you ask my powers include control over water, talking to horses, and I have been working on vapor travel."
"When have you been working on vapor travel?" Annabeth looked at him questioningly.
"We aren't always together babe." Percy shrugged nonchalantly.
"And I am a daughter of Athena, Greek goddesses of wisdom and battle strategy." Annabeth added.
Wanting to test said powers over water I "accidentally" spilled my water intending to hit Percy but it missed and hit Annabeth. "Whoops" is all could say.
"Smooth move Stark." I heard Clint said as he snickered.
"No problem." Annabeth started. "Instead of snickering, dry me off seaweed brain."
Percy then with a touch of his hand dried off Annabeth and cleaned up the spilled water on the floor.
"That's quite handy for janitor duty." Clint joked.
"Well back to business. Thor can you tell us what is this threat." Fury demanded.
"Well it seems a powerful being has broken Loki out of his prison." Thor answered.
"And you are telling us this now!" Fury shouted. "Code level orange. Loki is back." Fury said into his phone.
"And we need to test how good you are in a fight, Percy let's head to training room A." Captain America said.
"I don't think that should be a problem." Percy said with a grin.
