"Hello, You must be Annabeth. I'm Tony Stark, Genius, billionaire, playboy and philanthropist."
"Hi" I looked at him, he wore an expensive suit, Expensive shoes, brown hair and a goatee and he seemed a bit cocky but still nice. I don't know if that makes sense. Then there was a lady, no Wedding ring, but they were lovers, that was obvious. She also wore expensive business clothes. But she seemed less cocky and a bit nicer. She has red blonde hair.
" Hi I'm Pepper Potts but you may call me Pepper." She flashed me a smile.
"I'm going to pack." I rushed out of the door, not waiting for an answer. I rushed up stairs. I grabbed everything I still had. All the pictures of camp, my dad, Us as a family me and Percy. I also took my architecture books and last but not least all Percy's sweaters. Which were a lot. When I was done I checked everything once more and concluded that I had everything. I had no drachmas because I wasn't allowed back in the house. I grabbed my bag and walked downstairs. They were waiting downstairs.
"Hello, Ready to go?" Pepper asked.
"Yeah." We walked towards the parking lot were a jet was parked. And you could've guessed it's theirs. I wasn't even surprised.
We walked in it was more spacious than I thought it would be but I directly saw things that you could improve.
"You can put your bags here and sit there." Tony seemed a little bit nervous, I don't know why. I put my bags away and I sat down.
Tony started the jet and after it was started he put it on auto pilot. He turned his chair towards me and started to talk.
"What is your favourite colour?"
He looked expectantly at me.
"Seagreen."
"What's your favourite food."
"Hamburgers."
"Favourite drink?"
"Coke."
"What are your hobbies?"
"Architecture"
"Do you have any questions for us?"
"No" I thought that the conversation was now done.
"Favourite superhero?" He looked very expectantly. I thought about it for a while, I was wondering if I also could say one of greek mythology, What if I would say Perseus, he doesn't know I don't mean the old Perseus.
When I decided that it would work. I looked up and noticed we already stopped, the jet stood on a platform on a skyscraper. Pepper and Tony stood up, so I also stood up. I grabbed my backs and together we walked out. We walked into an elevator. I went in with no problem cause you don't need to show you're scared. I stood against the side and I made fists of my hands. They got very sweaty and white. When the elevator opened I almost jumped out.
"Are you alright?" Tony asked with a questioning gaze.
"Yeah" I said a little too fast to look convincing, luckily he let it drop. We walked towards an living room were 5 people were sitting. They looked up when we came in.
"Guys this is my niece Annabeth Chase."
There were some heys and hellos.
A Lady with red hair started with introducing, "Hi, I'm Natasha Romanoff Also known as Black widow." She looked like she knew how to kill you. It's weird that she's also known as a spider, Maybe she has a job with spiders. I shrugged it off.
A guy in purple with blond hair was next, "Clint Barto Hawkeye." He looked like an Apollo camper. And he is probably doing something with eyes.
Another guy with blond hair started to introduce himself, "Hello I am Steve Rogers also known as Captain America" maybe he was in the army?
A guy with brown curly hair and glasses was next, "Hi, I'm Bruce Banner, also known as the hulk." Everyone stared at me like they waited for a reaction, I have no idea how he could get that name. I looked to the next. He is a guy with long blonde hair.
"Hello, I am Thor.'' No surname and no nickname. Strange.
There was an awkward silence. "Shall I bring you to your room?" Tony looked expectantly. I nodded.
After walking for a minute he opened a door. This is your room. Steve is your neighbour on the left and I am your neighbour on the right, if you ever need anything just ask Jarvis."
"Who?"
"My artificial intelligence. Say hi Jarvis."
"Hello" there was a British voice coming from the ceiling. I can't really be surprised anymore.
We walked inside, It was a big room maybe even bigger than Sally's apartment. There was a king-size bed, the walls were painted blue and there were to doors on the left. I dropped my bags on my bed.
"If you want to personalize your room it's allowed. If you need money for anything just ask me or Pepper." Then he slowly walked towards the door. He almost closed the door, "Dinner will be served in half an hour." Then he closed the door. Just before he closed it I whispered " Perseus" I don't think he heard. When he was gone I started to unpack my bags. I Put the pictures on the wall and the picture of Percy and I on my nightstand. I put all Percy's clothes in the walk in closet, I think I didn't even fill 10 per cent of it with my clothes. The door next to the walk in closet led to a huge bathroom. It had everything you'd need, it had a big shower, big batt, a toilet and a sink.
I also put my books in the bookcase. When I looked at the time I saw dinner would start any minute. I walked out of my room and walked towards the kitchen. When I arrived I saw everyone already sitting. I sat on the only chair left, next to Natasha and Tony. I sat down and looked what we would eat we would eat Pizza. Fine by me. When we were done. Steve started to talk.
"Here are the ground Rules.

Most make sense.
"And can we all have your phone number?"
"Sure, just don't expect me to pick up." I told them my phone number and they put me directly in their contacts. "Is there anything we need to know?"
"Every summer I go to camp and I will keep going there." They agreed.
"and I need to go to school"
"Yeah I thought about midtown high, it's a great school, I already know some people that go there." Tony said.
"I want to go to Goode."
"But Goode isn't the best school to go to and I already put you in midtown high." Tony looked at me with puppy eyes, Percy's are better. "Alright" I said with a big sigh.
"I'm going to bed."
"Goodnight"
I almost ran towards my room. I needed to notify Percy one way or another. I grabbed my flip phone and dialled Sally's number.
"Hi Sally Can you tell Percy to IM Me at avengers tower?"
"Yes. Bye Annabeth."
"bye" Sally hang up. I hope no monsters are coming.
In a minute I saw a shimmering form hanging before me.
"Percy."
"Annabeth. What happened I couldn't reach you for a week, why are you at the avengers tower?" I looked at him he looked like he hadn't slept for a week, which is a big possibility.
"My parents were killed by a hellhound, apparently my father was adopted and Tony Stark is his younger brother, who adopted me. They didn't let me inside so I had no drachmas left."
"Are you okay?" And with those 3 words he made me cry, the first time since they died. Everything came out, I told him everything. We talked for more than 2 hours. When I heard something on the hallway.
"Sssst" Percy directly shut up. He looked were I was looking.
"Goodbye I'll IM you same time as today bye, I love you" He swiped through the mist.
"I love you too" I whispered.
Tony opened the door.
"Hey, you still awake?" He looked at me bloodshot eyes, from all the crying. And he walked in
"Hey, everything okay?"
"Yes, I was planning on going to bed. Goodnight." I said with a voice of finality. He walked back out closed the door. And I went to the bathroom took a fast shower and crept in my bed. This would be a long night.
And cut! A lot has happened. I'm going on a vacation for 3 weeks so don't expect an update anytime soon. Further I hope it was okay, if not please criticize it. I have never been depressed so it's pretty hard to write so it's more depressed because of no sleep than depression from wanting to kill yourself. Please tell me if I have anything wrong. Thank you. Bye bye
