Natasha POV
Clint groaned and stretched his arms as he rolled his neck. Natasha sighed as he plopped down on his chair with another groan. "I have had it Natasha, we are never going to find the Shark. He's way to slippery." Natasha sighed "We'll find him Clint. We just have to keep looking for him. He could be right under our noses after all." Clint shook his head. "There is no way we will find him Nat, he is a sly one that one." Natasha gave a soft sigh and let her head hit the table with a groan.
"Hello Natasha" a voice said behind her. Natasha spun around, her hair flying around until she was face to face with the Kingpin of Crime. She pulled away. "You" she growled, "What do you want?" The Kingpin smiled coldly at her. "I want to help you with a problem that you and your boyfriend have." He said softly, "But you will have to help me first my dear Ms. Romonoff." Natasha frowned at him "How do you know what I want," she snapped.
"You want to know who the Shark is, I can help you with that my dear Natasha. But only if you help me." "What can I help you with," she said. "What I want you to do is work with one of my people to kill a rival of mine, then I will introduce you to the Shark." Clint's eyes widened "Nat no. If you do that the others won't be too happy with you." Natasha met Clint's eyes and silently conversed with him. Then she turned to the Kingpin. "I'll do it," she said quietly.
The Kingpin smiled "Wonderful dear, I'll meet you at the bar that you were at this evening, trying to find the Shark, tomorrow morning. Have a nice night." Then he left. Clint kept shaking his head. "Fury is not going to like this, Nat. Do you realize that if he finds out you could be kicked out of SHIELD." Natasha sighed, "Yes, Clint I realize that alright. I have to do this okay." Then Natasha stood up and ran toward the woman's bathroom. Natasha laid her head back against the door as she slumped down to the floor.
Natasha knew that she had to do this, it was the only chance she had of finding the Shark.
And the fact that she would have to do it made her cringe deep inside.
Percy POV
When a knock came to the door during dinner, Raven looked up and asked, "Were we expecting someone, Jackson." Percy shook his head, "Not that I know of." Then he stood up and went to answer the door. When the door opened the Kingpin of Crime was standing there with a small grin on his face. "Hello Jackson, may I come in?" Percy gave the Kingpin his signature grin and said, "Of course, sir. You are always welcome in my home. The Kingpin smiled and came in.
"How have you been Raven?" he asked when he saw her. Raven stiffened when she saw him. "I'm fine sir." She said stiffly. Percy then asked "Do you have mission sir?" The Kingpin smiled "Yes I do Jackson. The mission will be given to you tomorrow morning at "the Black Bear". Have a nice night Jackson, Raven." Then the Kingpin of Crime walked out the door and closed the door behind him.
"Well" Percy said "that was an interesting meeting usually he isn't that cheerful." Raven gave a small grin "You are right about that Jackson. I wonder what he is so happy about." Percy shrugged "Well I suppose that I will find out tomorrow morning." Raven's face suddenly took worried look. Then Percy was in her mind and reading her thoughts "I don't want him to go. I don't trust the Kingpin at all. I don't want Jackson to get hurt because of a mission." Percy grinned at her "I'll be fine Raven. I trust the Kingpin completely." Raven bit her lip and nodded worridley
Percy sighed he hoped that Raven wouldn't try to stop him from working for the Kingpin.
Annabeth POV
"What do you mean, Percy is in trouble! Percy is always in trouble Chiron." Chiron sighed and then said, "Let's go have a council. Then I will explain what I mean when I say that Percy is in trouble." Annabeth blinked and then began follow Chiron. Once everyone had taken their seats at the ping pong table and then Chiron turned to a screen that Annabeth remembered that had last been used during the Titan War. Chiron then said "As you all well know a assassin called the Shark has been ravaging New York the past few months." "So?" Jason asked.
"Iris show me the first building destroyed." The next thing Annabeth knew a image of the first building that had been destroyed. But it wasn't destroyed in the image. Then two people entered the image. One was easily reckognized as the Kingpin of Crime. Annabeth leaned in and was surprised to see that all the other coucilors leaned in too. Then Annabeth froze. She glanced around staring at the others faces wich were in complete shock.
Jason broke the silence by saying the one thing they were all afraid to say.
"It's Percy. I can't believe it but it's Percy."
