Tony P.O.V.
So apparently Thor got us a meeting with these kids, but there's seven of them coming and he keeps referring to them as 'The Seven'. Which is pretty weird……
Anyways, we got discharged from the hospital the next morning and Pepper came to drive us to the tower. She scolded us for trying to arrest an 18 year old kid and said we got what we deserved.
Finally , we got to the tower and went up to the living room. Thor went straight to the kitchen to raid our pop tart stockpile and the rest of the team sat on the couch in front of the flat screen. I sat on the very end next to Cap. We are all in sweatpants and plain white t-shirts courtesy of the hospital.
Pepper went to the kitchen too, to make us something to eat. I wasn't hungry, but Clint looked at her like she was God.
I sat down thinking. If two of these kids could take us down, what could seven of them do? Are they just as powerful as them? Would they be cooperative or just plain rude? My thoughts were interrupted by JARVIS.
"Sir, there is a group of seven teenagers here requesting to see you." I heard the electronic voice say.
"Let them in JARVIS and bring them up to the living room." I respond. The team sits up a bit and turns their attention to the elevator door. Thor comes and sits on a chair with a pop tart in hand. Pepper comes back from the kitchen and says she put some lasagna in the oven. Clint is practically drooling at this point and Natasha rolls her eyes and slaps his shoulder. He pouts and rubs the place she hit him.
Finally the elevator dings and we are met with quite a site.
As promised, there are 7 teenagers all vastly different from each other, but at the same time they all share this look in their eyes that reminds me of a veteran returning from war. The first two are Perseus and the blonde girl. Now that I can get a good look at them without them trying to kill me, I can see that they are both well muscled. Next I see a blonde boy who looked about the same age as them. His electric blue eyes were protected by square glasses and he was tall and muscular. He was holding hands with a girl that looked to be Native American because of her caramel skin. She had choppy brown hair, but somehow she made it look like something straight out of a magazine cover. The strangest thing about her were her eyes. They seemed to change color every few seconds. Next, was a buff Chinese guy. He had a short buzz cut and would be pretty intimidating if it wasn't for his baby face. Holding hands with him was a African American girl with the curliest hair I had seen. She was shorter than the rest of the group and looked to be younger too. Once again, her eyes caught me by surprise, they looked to be solid gold. Lastly there was a Latino boy who had curly brown hair and the most mischievous smile you would ever see. He was fidgeting with something in his hands and would turn to look at it every few seconds.
We sat there not knowing what to say. Thor was the one to break the silence.
"Heroes! May I say it is an honor to meet you all! Your tales of selfless bravery have been told in my world time and time again." He leaves his pop tarts and goes up to them.
"Um thanks I guess. Who are you?" Perseus is the one to speak.
"I am Thor god of thunder in Asgard." He announces. Perseus looks back at the blonde boy and smiles.
"Look at that sparky, now you have a friend." He laughs and the group begins to laugh with him. Natasha is the first to shake out of the trance. She gets up and goes to join Thor.
"I think we got off on the wrong foot. I'm Natasha Romanoff aka Black Widow. They are Steve Rogers or Captain America, Tony Stark or Iron man, Bruce Banner or the Hulk, and Clint Barton or Hawkeye." She introduces us trying to create peace. At first Perseus seems wary, but quickly begins to introduce his friends.
"I'm Perseus Jackson but please call me Percy, though you probably already know that. This is Annabeth Chase, Jason Grace, Piper McLean, Frank Zhang, Hazel Levesque, and Leo Valdez." He points at them one by one.
"So I guess we should explain our background to you guys?" He questions. Thor nods enthusiastically.
"I have only heard fragments of your great adventures. It would be an absolute honor to hear it from you personally." He says.
"Well can we atleast get sit down because this might take a while." Annabeth says. We show them to the other couch opposite of us. They sit down and I see Perseus take a huge breath.
"Do any of you, besides Thor, know anything about the Greek gods?" He asks. Bruce is the first to answer.
"Yes, the myths about Zeus, Hades, and all the other gods." He states.
"Well I wouldn't call them myths. They're pretty real. We are the children of those gods, half mortal half god." Annabeth says. I for once wasn't all that shocked. I mean we met with an Asgardian. Why not have Greek gods too?
"So who are your godly parents?" Nat asked. Percy smiled and began reintroducing everyone.
"Percy Jackson son of Poseidon. Annabeth Chase daughter of Athena. Jason Grace son of Jupiter. Piper McLean daughter of Aphrodite. Frank Zhang son of Mars. Hazel Levesque daughter of Pluto. And Leo Valdez son of Hephaestus." He pointed to each person again.
"Yes! The Seven!" Thor clapped happily.
"Okay so why does big guy over here keep calling you guys the seven?" Asked Clint. They looked at each other and sighed.
"It's a long story, but I guess that's why we're here." Annabeth said
"It all started when I was 12." Percy said. He continued to tell us his life. We all sat on the edge of our seats. He went through all that when others were trying to survive middle school. We were speechless. By the end Annabeth had a few tears streaming down her face. Piper rubbed her back and tried to comfort her.
"And that's how Jason and I stopped our evil grandfather without even knowing each other. Of course we had a lot of help," he said.
"Okay, that's impressive. But I still don't get why you all are the seven." Clint says.
"And so we begin round two of story time. Leo how about you take the lead on this one." Percy says and Leo grins.
"Awww yeah! The Super sized Mcshizzle is in the House!" He exclaims. I raise my eyebrows in question and Percy laughs and mouths, 'Don't ask.'
Leo began his story and every once in a while would switch Piper and Jason. We got to the part where they rescued Hera, and then Percy started narrating again switching with Hazel and Frank.
"Wait so Roman gods exist too?" Nat asks. Jason nods and explains that the gods switch from their Greek form and their Roman form every once in a while. Nat nods and they continue with the story.
We get to the part where Annabeth defeats Arachne and we are all on the edge of our seats. Piper was telling the story and she falters. She looks at Annabeth and Percy and they're both looking down at the floor.
"This next part is probably the worst of it all. We still have nightmares about this place and what happened to us while we were down there." Annabeth explains and a single tear slides down her cheek. Percy gives her a side hugs and rubs her back. What was worse than what they've already faced?
Then, Percy continues with Annabeth chipping in every once in a while. He tells us of him mastering his powers when he controlled the rivers of the Underworld. He tells us how they had to drink fire to survive. He explains their encounter with Nyx and the goddess of misery. He tells us about the curses put on him and and how he had to do what he did. How we boiled the goddess's blood. His gaze stayed on the floor. When he finished, even I had tears in my eyes. They went through so much. They didn't deserve any of this.
Jason finally concluded the story and by then Annabeth and Percy were more or less back to normal. They were holding hands and were probably not about to let go.
"Wow." was all Nat could muster.
"Yeah, we get that reaction a lot," Leo chuckled.
"Come on guys we can't be all gloomy." Piper says with a small smile.
"Pipes is right guys besides I think it's time to show them our powers." Percy says. "Do you guys have a training room you don't mind be destroyed?"
