Tony's POV:
We all watched as Percy walked around the main common area that had the main kitchen and living room. He prowled around with silence and stopped by one of the several plants that were dying given to us by Pepper to make it more "lively" in here. He walked over a placed a finger on the flower, and it started to grow again, color returning to the pedals. It was amazing with what the kid can do.
"How did you do that?"
Percy paused, "Um... I can control plant life and water."
"And you just forgot to tell us that information?"
"No, I just thought I couldn't trust you." He stopped and took a deep breath through his nose. "Why do you smell like anxiety?" He said to Clint.
Clint paused, "I don't know what you're talking about."
Percy pointed to his nose, "scents don't lie. Do you not trust me?"
"I don't trust anything I don't understand. You could be dangerous, and I have a family to go home to."
"Well, it's a good thing that I won't do anything to hurt you because I have a pack to go home to-" He looked at the window where the landing pad is. "No way." A smile graced his lips, "Is there a way to go out there?"
"Friday open the door to the landing pad."
"Sure thing Mr. Stark."
"Why do you want to go ou- Holy crap what the hell is that!?" A black figure was barreling towards the landing pad.
"It's Annabeth and Blackjack," Percy said with a huge smile plastered on his face. Horse with wings, a Pegasus, can this world get any weirder?
"Is that a Pegasus?" Steve asked.
"It is, and his name is Blackjack."
Blackjack landed with a blond woman hopping off it's back. She was moving towards Percy with a face that had pure anger. "Perseus Jackson! You left me alone with the pack on a full moon and for an entire month!" She grabbed his arm flipping him over, making him land on his back.
He groaned, "Hey Annabeth, I missed you too. I'm sorry."
"I thought I told you to never disappear again! Gods I swear you have the worst luck." We were all shocked unable to say anything, and Percy actually laughed when she had the knife at his throat.
Percy pushed her hair from her face, "I'm sorry, I wanted to be there on your first full moon."
She pressed her cheek into his hand, "I know you wanted to be there."
"Um... can someone please explain what's going on?" Natasha said.
Annabeth stood, "Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena. I'm Percy's mate, nice to meet you all finally. Mr. Stark, I am a big fan of your work!" She turned back to Percy, "I'm still mad at you."
Percy stood, "Listen, guys I need to get back home, I have things I need to take care of. I can come back I swear."
I smiled, "Sure as long as you come back, I don't want to have to hunt you down again."
"Tony, you can't be serious."
"Dixie chick serious," I said to Steve who held the look of bewilderment.
Percy smiled, "Alright, I'll be back I promise as long as there will be food."
"Are you kidding between all of us we always have food."
"You ready because Shawn is pissed you aren't there. He's trying to get the others to leave. Vanessa is refusing to go."
I had no clue about what they were talking about. Percy nuzzled her neck, "I'll deal with him. Blackjack how are you doing buddy?" Percy and Annabeth laughed as if they were having a conversation with the Pegasus. Man, I need a drink or maybe five.
Percy's POV:
I loved the feeling of Annabeth's arms wrapped around my waist as we flew back to camp. Having the connection with all the pack members open again made me relax. They were all okay and healthy. When we got back to our separated area that the gods have given us to keep the campers safe for full moons, and temper tantrums since Calla and Cam were at the age of unpredictability.
Calla was the first to notice me, "Percy!" She ran at me latching on to my leg. "Where did you go?"
"I was taken by some mortals with superpowers."
"Superpowers! Conner and Travis taught me what superheroes are. Are you a superhero?"
I picked her up, walking towards her mother's cabin, "most definitely. You can be a superhero too."
"But I don't have any powers."
"You don't need any powers to be a superhero."
"Well here is the alpha himself, after getting taken down by mere mortals." I groaned, rolling my eyes. Shawn, of course, he has to be an asshole. I put Calla down, Vanessa taking her and Cam into the cabin.
"Shawn, I couldn't just rip mortals apart, I did what I could-" My head snapped back when his fist connected with my nose. I growled, wiping my face, blood smeared on my hand.
"You are a piece of shit for an alpha. You're weak just like how your father describes you."
"Shawn knock it off!" Annabeth yelled. I held my hand out, "Annabeth how about you go and tell Chiron I'm back and will come find him later. "But-"
"Trust me Annabeth; I'll be fine." She huffed and sent a thought down the bond, "You better be careful, he's been psychotic since you left."
"I will be fine, I've dealt with worse."
"You are pathetic, just a child playing dress up."
I have no clue how my fist connected with his face. It just acted on its own. "I'm tired of dealing with this shit Shawn, I am getting fed up with all your bullshit. First, you tell Calla and Cam it's honorable to murder demigods. That is against my order, all our pack rules." Nyla came running from where the pavilion is, Bear close behind.
A bit of sunlight glimmered off the piece of metal that Shawn had in his hand. "Shawn, why are you holding a silver dagger? I don't want to make this any worse for you."
"Like I said you are just as your father described you. to be." He launched at me. I swiped his hand away, dodging each of his blows. I never reached for riptide even when he managed to cut through some skin. I growled and shoved him to the ground as I shifted, snarling into his face. I backed off when he let out a small whine.
I turned back, rage still making me tense, "If you don't keep your mouth shut and follow my rules you will never be able to return. If I feel that for one second you can't be trusted, you will be removed from the pack and if you were to step anywhere near this camp, I will personally slice your throat. Do we have an understanding?"
His nostrils flared, anger radiating off his scent, "I understand." His eyes wouldn't meet mine.
I stood straighter as Nyla walked over, "oh good you put him in his place." She smiled, "the great Perseus Jackson returns! So, you got beaten up by little mortals."
I rolled my eyes, "I couldn't fight back like normal. But they know, the gods permitted me, a new prophecy seems to be starting. I need to go talk to Chiron since the gods need me to save their asses, again." Thunder boomed, "oh you know it's true. Listen I have to go back to the mortals, so you and Bear are in charge, okay?"
"Sure, I'll be alpha for however long you need."
I snarled and shoved her a bit out of playfulness.
I met up with Chiron and explained everything and what the gods told me to do. I looked at Annabeth, "Would you like to go with me and stay and talk to your idol?"
She smiled wide, "Oh, my gods I can't wait to see his inventions! He's brilliant Percy!"
I rolled my eyes, "well what are you waiting for, let's take Blackjack and go." I grabbed her hand.
We got back to the Avenger's HQ that night, Steve who seems to be the fatherly figure frowned his arms crossed, "I thought you would be back earlier."
"I'm sorry I never gave you a time on when I would be back. Annabeth is going to be staying with me, here."
He frowned, "in the same room?"
I smiled and patted his shoulder, "I promise we'll behave."
"It's an honor, sir. So, you were stuck in the ice that long? Is it weird seeing all this technology?"
He smiled, "I have adjusted well. But it is a little weird with how much the world has changed. Let me show you to your room, I'm sorry I don't have an extra room for you Annabeth."
I wrapped my arm around her, "no worries, we will share, she has to go back to Olympus anyways to continue building."
Steve stopped, "Olympus?"
Annabeth smiled proudly, "I am the architect of Olympus for the gods. I'll be gone by the afternoon tomorrow."
He nodded looking at anywhere but our connected hands. I could tell he was uncomfortable, "Let me show you to your room. Did you already have dinner?"
I rubbed my stomach, "yes we had deer."
Annabeth shook her head, "Percy."
"Oh, so you like venison? How do you like it cooked?"
I frowned, "I didn't cook it."
Annabeth smiled, "we can eat raw meat."
"Oh, so you are like him then?"
I smiled when she made her nails shift. "Yeah, but I was bitten."
"She's amazing for someone who has just turned a month ago."
"What do you mean?"
"Bittens, have a harder time learning control."
He stopped, "Here is your room, You, are staying next to Clint and Natasha." He pointed one way then the other.
"Thank you. I have never had an actual room before. It's more of a human thing." I said as I walked in, Annabeth right behind me. We gasped at how big this room was. Dark furniture and the floor was a light carpet. It had its own bathroom with weird tech to turn the shower and tub on. I looked at the giant black surface on the wall, "Annabeth what is that?"
She laughed, "it's a tv. You can watch stuff on it. Here look." She picked up a weird rectangle that had buttons. She pressed one, and the black screen turned to life.
"Woah. That's cool, how does it work?" I said brows furrowing.
"it's like a giant phone, you get cable and have different tv shows." She handed me the remote, teaching me how to use it. Her strawberry shampoo and vanilla scent washed over me.
"This is going to be so weird."
"Yes, it will be, but you will handle it. We will end Lycaon's reign, and demigods will be safe."
"He's even hunting mortals. I am going to have to kill him, aren't I?"
She sat in my lap, "you will do what you think is best. I am with you every step of the way."
"How could I be so lucky to find you?" I kissed her neck, nuzzling her a little.
"Maybe you have some luck." She leaned into me a little more, "how about when I come back from Olympus we can continue this. Besides we don't want them to hear us on the first night, you are staying here." Her lips traveled up to my ear, nibbling on my earlobe.
"Well you are making it very difficult to agree with you," I said a little breathless.
She gave me a wicked smile, "I didn't say anything about touching." A low growl rumbled in my chest as lust filled her eyes.
"I guess that would be okay, as long as you don't make any noise."
