Percy Jackson a Hunters tale c36
The next day the Greeks and Romans arrived in their warships there was three of them in total and their entrance was surprised. They landed one by one and the armies disembarked, Tony moved over with Rhode, Sam, Peter Parker and Bruce to Steve and the others who watched as the legions got off and formed ranks in order followed by the Greeks a clear difference between the two but they all looked ready for war. They were surprised that they had brought supplies with them and began assembling things almost instantly. Ten of them came over to them a mix between Greek and Roman, led by Annabeth and Percy.
'Heroes, King T'Challa.' Cara introduced
"King? Like an actual king?" Leo asked making T'Challa look at him, he was wearing overalls under greek armor and his hands were covered in soot and grease.
'Yes Leo, he is King of Wakanda. Where you are now.'
"I have to say nice place you have here."
'King T'Challa, Annabeth, Percy, Jason, Piper, Hazel, Praetor Frank, Leo, Nico and Praetor Reyna. Annabeth and Percy are in charge of the Greeks, Reyna and Frank the Romans.'
"What are they doing?" he asked indicating the construction that has begun he also noticed that the ships were floating in the air.
"Building our defenses."
"Catapults." Percy replied
"You are all so young looking."
"You are all so old." Leo replied with snark only to end up with an elbow from Frank. "Sorry."
"Leo why don't you go and oversee the constructions." Percy said and Leo nodded walking off his hands finding their way into his tool belt.
'You should move one of the ships back there, by the mountains for safety. Set up a camp here.' Cara signed Reyna and Annabeth agreed sending off a messenger to get it done. 'Is Thalia?'
"Yes, she was…over there with Apollo kids." Annabeth said looking around and saw the silver parkers.
"How much time do we have?" Reyna asked looking at her
'Set up a patrol, we should be on the lookout.' Cara replied getting Thalia's attention she came over with one other hunter. She began signing something fast and sign no one else recognized. Thalia nodded giving her own hand gestures before looking at Annabeth giving a small nod to the adults before disappearing into the sea of soldiers.
"What did you say to her?" Hazel asked
'Set up camp.' She signed before moving off only to stop and sigh rubbing her collar bone she moved over and grabbed Wanda's arm and took her away down the hill walking amongst Romans and Greeks alike she still couldn't believe they were working together after so many years of fighting.
"Where are we going?" Wanda asked
'I need to tell you something.' Cara signed back leading her away from the armies and over to the forest.
Wanda moved back through the Greeks and Romans, she had left Cara with some of the hunters, she was reeling with what Cara told her.
"You alright?" Pietro asked her as he came over to her looking concerned.
"Hmm, yes."
"Cara?"
"Busy with the hunters."
"What is it?" Pietro asked
"I can't say. Come on Nat is probably wondering where we are."
"She did send me. We are having a meeting in the throne room." He said picking her up and took off towards the palace, several soldiers tensed as he did it but they didn't stop him. When they entered the room Natasha looked at her, it was obvious what she was asking. Wanda gave her a small nod before following her brother moving over and sitting down next to Clint.
They were once again in an argument over who will lead, Rocket and Peter Quill kept bringing up the fact that they were kids. When the room fell into silence as they heard a horn being blown and not a minute later the cities defense system became active warning them that they had incoming. Everyone jumped up and ran out, most were ready as they ran out Steve noticed that the Roman camp had already moved as they drove to the spot they picked for the battle they drove passed T'Challa's army and the Greek and Roman's he was surprised that the catapults were ready and the Romans were in battle formation. Reyna ended up riding her pegasus as Frank and Hazel moved to their position. Percy saw Jason and Piper giving them a nod he ran over to Annabeth who was standing next to Clarisse and Nico.
"Actual alien invasion. Our world keeps getting weirder and weirder." Will muttered he was standing next to Nico with his bow at the ready.
"Where are the hunters?" Percy asked
"Covering our flank." Annabeth replied "They are keeping Cara in the middle. If it looks like we are failing Jason has been given orders to get her out of here. Reyna would not leave her troops."
"Does she know that?"
"No. Thalia gave him a code word that would stop her from resisting."
"They are massive ships how many do you recon can fit in one of those?" Nico asked tightening his grip on his sword.
"More than us." Clarisse replied
"You all know why we are here, we cannot lose." Percy said
"We are with you Percy." Will said and noticed how Percy squeezed Annabeth's hand before drawing riptide. They were coming the attack had begun.
The aliens were throwing themselves at the wall that protected them killing themselves as they tried to break through.
"They are killing themselves." Okoye pointed out
"Some are getting through." Steve pointed out as a couple made it through only to take two steps and die from the traps that were the secondary defenses. "Is there another way around?" Steve asked noting how they were going to try to find a different entrance. T'Challa was already seeing this and thought of a plan he shared a look with Steve who was thinking the same thing he gave him a nod. Getting Shuri to open up a section of Wakanda's main defense he did not know if it was the best choice but so far it was his only choice.
