Percy Jackson a Hunters tale c11
After they had finished they walked down the street to a store that Annabeth ran into to get a diary and pen when she came out they continued on their way. Percy led them to a public library where they entered to a secluded area. Their Cara began to write things down in the book, it took her twenty minutes before she handed the book back to Annabeth where she took charge. Cara and Percy had no idea what she was doing they decided to leave her. Percy went to take a look around leaving Cara with Annabeth who was busy writing things down and searching other things in a book she grabbed from one of the shelves.
"We need to go." Percy said coming back and grabbing his bag after half an hour.
"What? Why?"
"The library is being cleared out."
"It's not closing time."
"Men in suits are doing it." He replied so Annabeth placed the book in her bag before following him out the back with Cara bringing up the rear. They slipped past some people in suits and made it to the back exit where they made it through the door only to be stopped by two men in costumes.
'Why are they dressed like that?' Cara signed but neither Percy nor Annabeth were looking at her.
"Easy now kids, we just want to talk." The guy on the right said he was in a dark blue suit with a star on its chest and had a round shield on his back.
"Sorry but my mother always told me not to talk to strangers." Percy snapped back
"We know who you are Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase we have a few questions we would like to ask." The man replied unfazed by his comment but he seemed on alert and ready for action.
"Not minimizing your creep factor. Who are you?" Percy asked again his hand was in his pocket but he knew his weapon would not harm mortals.
"How do you not know who we are?" the man on his left asked he seemed to be in a metal suit.
"We've had a long day, now if you don't mind…" Percy said taking a step forward, as he did Cara turned to look behind them to see two others coming her way, a female with red hair and the blonde man from the store, he carried a bow. As she was watching them her head spun around and she pulled out a knife looking frantically around.
"Hey kid lower the weapon." The man with the shield stated
'Cara, what are you doing?' Annabeth signed at her but she had her head tilted to the side.
'Move.' Cara signed back shoving them forward as she tumbled to the side, her knife was knocked out of her hand as she got back up to look at the monster that tackled her. Her bow formed in her hand and she pulled an arrow from her bag shooting and killing the monster turning her bow on the others. Annabeth and Percy jumped to her as they started fighting three cyclops and two gigantes that seemed to appear out of thin air (they actually came around from the other side of the library). Percy and Annabeth fought them in sync after everything they had been through together they knew each other's ways with precision. Cara dealt with the cyclops as Annabeth and Percy dealt with the gigantes.
"Give it to us filthy halfblood." One of the gigantes spat only for it to turn to a pile of ash from Annabeth's dagger. She turned in time to see Percy finishing his monster off as Cara was already standing with an arrow ready scanning the parking lot of the library that they were currently standing in.
'Anymore?' Annabeth signed to her as she tilted her head and listened, Annabeth was watching Cara and Percy was watching the mortals. That was when Cara started rapidly shooting, Annabeth followed her line of fire and she froze as she saw a car being crushed as a titan moved over to them. He picked up the car and threw it at them the three of them jumped out of the way.
"What the hell is going on?" the man in the metal suit shouted as another car was thrown at them but he was promptly ignored by the teens.
"Percy." Annabeth shouted as she ran for the titan with Percy on her heels rip tide was drawn and she had pulled out her sword. Cara then spun around and fired three arrows behind her killing three hell hounds before turning back to the titan. She ran towards the street diving under a car that was thrown at her and jumped up onto another car as she fired more arrows at it, she knew she would not be able to kill it, but that was not her goal. She was distracting it as Annabeth and Percy got close to it. She made sure the mortals could not see exactly what they were doing, she couldn't cover up the cars but at least they were not seeing them fighting a titan and monsters. She wondered what exactly they were seeing but didn't think too hard on it as she was focused on the titan in front of them. As she fired her arrow it hit it in the eye but she was the one that ended up stumbling. Her eyes widened in panic as she looked around the scene in front of her, she saw a car explode but that was not what had her panicking, what had her panicked was the fact that she could not hear. Her hand went up to her ear feeling the hearing aid still in place, she felt her heart beat faster. Artemis said they would not affect her hearing, so why was she suddenly in silence (Artemis visited her in a dream the first night of her quest). She looked around to see that Annabeth and Percy had dealt with the titan, Annabeth was holding a spear Cara had no idea where it came from and she was signaling for her to come. She ran over to her only for a hand to grab her arm from behind she reflexively swung at the person only for her fist to connect with something solid. She turned to see the man in the iron suit holding her, he wasn't for long though. She turned in time to see Annabeth and Percy both fall to the ground she ran over to them and sensed something coming at her from her right she twirled around and caught the arrow that was aimed at her.
Looking at the arrow closely it was not a normal arrow. She turned in the direction that it came from to see the blonde man from the store already aiming another arrow at her, again she caught it. Pulling out her own bow she picked one of her trick arrows and fired it at him as she made her way backwards towards Annabeth and Percy. Too late did she realize they used the same tactic on her as she had used on the titan. The red haired lady had moved up to her and shot something at her, her reflexes saved her but whatever she had fired still managed to hit her arm scratching her. She turned on the red haired and used her bow like a stave she began attacking her but her movements were getting slower and more clumsily executed. The red haired lady managed to disarm her and she sank to the ground she shook her head trying to clear it as her mind started getting foggy. She felt a hand on her arm and she wildly swung out only meeting air when she felt a pinch on her arm she looked down at the hand holding her before she was pulled into darkness.
AN: So the avengers are here, what will they do? Do they find out about the greek world or do they think they are aliens? Will they listen to teenagers? Why is Cara deaf? What is this leading up to? Until next time.
