Hey! I actually get to update.
I have tallied the results, and it was really close. So, Nico and Bucky are full brothers. Bucky went to Camp Half blood, and lived away from Nico. He lived with the Barnes family whenever he was in the mortal world. Nico is Persephone's champion the same way Jason is Hera's, which is why Persephone allowed Nico to be born. (Thank you for the suggestion Risa.)
The chapter will be extra long and have flashbacks involved.
I'll stop rambling before I get interrupted. Happy reading!

Flashback
Chapter 4: Reunion Pt. 1
Bucky POV
"Where do you think your little brother would be?," asked Steve. Bucky was glad that Steve didn't ask him why he kept Nico a secret, but went along with him anyway. He was glad that Steve had come. He didn't like Stark, and it was good to have someone he could talk to if Stark got too annoying. "I'm not sure," he replied. "Oh, that's great. We're going to spend all day wandering around Manhattan with no direction looking for someone that you haven't seen for at least 70 years. I regret offering my help, because of your lack of direction and plan, you are still going to end up lost," Tony says sarcastically. Bucky glared at Tony, regretting his decision to let him come. So far the only "help" he had given him was...nothing. "Let's take a break for lunch and continue in a little bit," Steve said, sensing an argument brewing. The other two nodded in agreement.
This line break takes you to camp.
Nico POV
Nico was stressing out. Will had been looking for him all week. He had to avoid him. He couldn't let him find out what was going on. "Nico," Will called out, "Can I talk to you?" He had to run, or shadow travel or something. "Nico, this is important. Please don't run." Nico heard the worry in Will's voice and turned around. "I'm kinda busy now, can we talk later?" Will shook his head. "No, I need to apologize for pushing you." Nico looked confused and Will continued, "About the last time we talked. When I asked you about your brother. I was being insensitive and I'm sorry. I feel-" Nico laughed cutting Will off. "It's fine. I don't care anymore."
When Will looked extremely confused, and Nico knew he needed to explain. He cleared his throat and said, "He's not dead. James is not dead. I am leaving to look for him today. I didn't tell you because I was worried that you would make things weird, or you would try to hard, or you would try to talk me out of it, claiming it would be too dangerous."
"How would I make it weird?" Nico blushed, "I didn't know if he would be OK with the two of us together, and if I introduce you to him as my boyfriend and he doesn't approve, then...it would be weird around him." Will smiles, "Hazel was happy when the two of us got together." "Yeah, but she is Hazel, and is ok with everything. I'm worried that he won't be OK with us." Will nods. "How would I try to hard?" Nico glares, "You are a dam* overachiever Solace, and you would try till you die to help me find him." Will laughs, "I would. Neeks, you know I would never talk you out of finding family. He's your brother. It probably will be dangerous, so I am coming with you."
"Get your stuff and meet me at the borders in 20 minutes," Nico said, knowing that he couldn't talk Will out of coming with him. Will kisses Nico on the cheek and runs back to his cabin to get his stuff.
Back with the Avengers
Bucky POV
The trio had ended up eating up at the shawarma place. (A/N: No clue what it is called) Tony had encouraged (read forced) Steve and Bucky to go there for lunch. They ordered and started eating.
Bucky started feeling nauseous and started seeing spots. Then everything went black.
Flashback
"I will miss you Jamie. I know that you will be back soon, but still. Someone as strong as you shouldn't leave camp for this long. I am surprised Mr. C let you leave. I hope you come back alive." James looked up at her with a smile. "I always come back. Don't worry about me." The girl rolled her eyes and laughed. "Don't be so cocky, or you won't come back. Do you get to see Steve first or are you just seeing Nico and Bianca? Does he even know that you have siblings or has it 'never come up'? You should probably tell your closest friend that you have siblings." James finished packing his stuff before replying, "I get to visit everyone. Also, if I told Steve about my siblings, he would want to know why we were separated, and it wouldn't be safe if I told him my secret." "Bye. And watch out for-"
Over
"Bucky, wake up." Bucky woke up to Steve shaking him. "Are you okay? What happened?" "I'd like to know to," Tony added in. Bucky tried to focus in what he had seen. What was that? Was it a memory from when he was younger? He wasn't sure. Who was that girl? Steve's voice snaps him back to reality. "Hey, you okay? Answer me, did you hit your head?" "I'm fine. I just passed out. It's nothing to worry about." Tony looked unconvinced, while Steve looked reassured. "Let's get going," Bucky said.
Back to the borders of camp.
Nico was ready to leave without Will. He had only been about 25 minutes, but Nico was ready to go. Just as he stepped to the borders, Will ran up. "Sorry," he panted, out of breath, "Lou Ellen asked me what I was doing. I had to try to make something up, but I know she didn't buy it. We probably should hurry. So, do you have an idea on where we are going?" Nico nodded, "When I tried to I.M. him, I saw a skyscraper. Let's go look for that." The two boys headed out of camp determined to find James.
In the city
Bucky POV
"Can we head back now?," Tony complained, "We've been looking all day and found nothing." Bucky knew that Stark was right. They had not found any clues. "Fine," Bucky said, "But, we'll continue tomorrow." The other two nodded and they started to head home.
Nico POV
Nico had managed to shadow travel them to the city without passing out. Will shivered saying, "I am never traveling like that again. On the way back, we are taking a cab or calling my mom to drive us." Nico rolls his eyes and says, "Let's not worry about that now. I'll look for the skyscraper that I saw."
It didn't take very long before the skyscraper came into view. It was massive. "There it is. That is the skyscraper from the I.M."
"Um, who exactly is your brother, Nico? That is not just any skyscraper, that is the Avengers Tower." Will stopped when he saw Nico's blank look. "You know, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk? Those guys? No, you so need to get out more."
"I don't care who's tower it is, James is in there and I am going to see him again."
In the tower
Bucky POV
"Bucky, we will find him, no matter how long it takes." Steve said trying to reassure his friend. He looked up as Clint entered.
"Where were you guys today? Nat was looking for Steve. You two were supposed to spar and she got really pi**** when you didn't show. Also, there are two kids are downstairs fighting with security. They were looking for Bucky. I think security threw them out" Clint said as he sat down.
Bucky bolted to his feet. "It has to be Nico! Come on Steve."
On the street
Nico POV
"Well, that did not go as expected." Will pointed out. Nico opened his mouth to respond, but the doors to the tower opened up and a person came streaking out with another person on his tail. " Nico!" yelled the first one, and as he slowed down, Nico recognized him as James.
Ta-da! Pretty awesome cliffhanger. My little sister wrote it. She wrote part of the chapter when I got stuck. She is amazing. Till next time. :)
