Yeah, here's an update guys. I'm so sorry for not updating, but I have been so busy with tennis and other stuff. So here's an update! I'm already halfway through with the next chapter so stay tuned!
Percy slept in. The previous night Peter Parker left and the avengers left him alone. Nico went to do gods know what. Who knew if the kid even slept? Percy had no dreams, which Percy was glad about. He didn't need more gods or ancient Greek forces bothering him in his sleep.
When Percy got down into the kitchen, Peter Parker was already sitting at the counter, tinkering away at some project.
"Hey," Percy spoke while he grabbed an apple and bit into it.
Peter Parker looked up confused, appearing unsure if Percy was speaking to him. "Hi?"
"Did you already eat?" Percy asked while opening the fridge to look for food.
Percy was successful, finding pizza in the fridge.
Peter composed himself. "Umm, yeah. Before I got here."
Percy started on his second slice of pizza. "So what's your deal with Spider Man? Cool powers, super speed?"
Peter shifted nervously. "Basically what it sounds like. I'm pretty fast 'cause I have senses like a spider. And I have this web slinger that sticks to anything."
Peter Parker lifted up the thing he was tinkering on.
Percy's eyebrows rose. "A bracelet?"
Peter reddened. "No, it's my, umm, web slinger. See?"
And with that Peter Parker shot webs at Percy, which would've caught him by the shirt if he didn't move out of the way.
Tony Stark walked into the room, holding a glass full of wine. "You know, destroying my kitchen isn't a very good morning routine."
Peter scoffed. "Drinking wine isn't a very good morning routine either."
Tony smiled and clapped Peter on the back. "I like you, kid. Better than Captain Do-Good."
Percy grabbed some fries from the fridge. "What? Don't I get a Hello? A 'Good Morning Percy'?" He said, talking with his mouth full.
Tony grinned. "Not with that attitude."
Tony ditched his wine glass and took the remaining fries from Percy.
"Hey!" Percy complained.
"While you two are playing nice, I'm going to run my very successful business. Percy, why don't you show Peter around the STARK Tower?"
Peter looked up from his hands. "I'm up for it."
Percy grinned. "Then I'll lead the way."
Percy and Peter made their way through the hallway of STARK Tower with Percy pointing out different rooms. Once they got up to the sleeping quarters Percy stopped.
"I guess you know more about the STARK Tower, but yeah, this is here is the sleeping quarters for the Avengers. This is floor- Percy leaned over to check the sign. "Six. And the shield means it's Steve Rodger's floor."
"You mean everyone gets their own floor?" Peter asked.
"Yup. Everyone but me. I'm still staying in one of the guest rooms."
Once Percy and Peter got past the sleeping quarters, Percy stopped again.
He gestured to the rooms with glass panels.
"These are the science rooms where I think Stark spends some of his time. Or maybe he spends his time down with his suit in the garage."
Percy threw his hands up. "I really don't know what that guy does."
He sighed. "Anyways, I know that some people use these rooms for science purposes."
Peter made a move to open the door. It didn't budge.
He looked back to Percy. "I think we need a keycard."
Percy shrugged. "I think they offered me one?" It sounded like a question to both Percy and Peter.
"I kinda zoned out. But anyways, I wouldn't have gone inside those rooms anyways."
"Why not?" Peter demanded.
"Dude, I got expelled from every school I've gone to. Most of the time it was because I exploded something. Not my fault by the way."
Sensing Peter's disappointment, Percy had idea.
"Hey, let's go down to the garage. See if we can take a car for a spin?"
Percy and Peter made their way to the garage. Once they were down there, they were met by another wall of glass, requesting a keycard. Behind those they could see rows and rows of cars.
Percy grinned. "Those. Cars. Are. Awesome."
"Yeah, but how are we going to get past the doors?" Peter pointed out.
"Easily."
Percy pulled out a keycard and swiped it, and the door unlocked with a click."
Percy looked over to Peter. "What?"
"I thought you didn't have one!"
"Okay, maybe I lied. But hey, I didn't feel like exploding anything today."
Peter rolled his eyes but didn't say anything.
Percy got in the driver's seat while Peter took shotgun.
Percy was just pulling out of the lot when Tony came walking out the elevator.
He looked surprised to see Percy and Peter in the car.
Percy laughed. "Time to go!" And he gunned the engine. Percy and Peter zoomed out of the garage into the street.
"Son of a bitch." Tony muttered under his breath.
