Riptide

Percy is cursed by Gaia after the war. As his body starts to fade away the Gods send him to a parallel universe (with the young justice team) to live while they try to make a body for him. The Gods bless him and send him off. Set between season 1 and season 2 of Young Justice and after Blood of Olympus. This story has been heavily influenced at the beginning from other x-overs.

Wonder Woman's POV

When I got back to the interrogation room I thought back on what Perseus said. 'Traveler to a different universe', could he really be from a different universe? As well as him being a son of Poseidon, I guess in his universe the gods are still having children.

"So your back."

"I was just thinking about something you said, if you are a demigod then you should have a weapon. Where is it?"

I see him go into his pocket and pull out a pen. Seeing my confused expression he take the cap of the pen and it turns into a sword. I jump back at first then say, "May I?" And he hands me the sword.

I took the sword and inspected it, evenly balanced and a good length, all in all it was a good sword. Before I could give his sword back to him it disappeared, looking at my shocked expression he replied, "It returns back to my pocket after leaving my position after a while."

Then a thought crossed my mind, "Why are you in this universe?"

"Like I said Gaea cursed me to disappear from existence on my planet. So in order to save my they put me into a body in a different universe, and when they find out a way for me to live back in my universe they will bring me home."

"How long will that take?"

"I don't know, maybe a few years."

"Why in a body of a mindless beast?"

"Because like you said he was mindless and I could take control over his body."

I thought about this and said "While your here do you want to help our world and fight with me?"

"Might as well, but when I go home you have to say I died. Deal?"

"Deal." Then we shook hands.

Batman's POV

I have no idea what just happened but when Wonder Woman shock hands with him I knew she made a deal. When they were leaving I said in my most menacing voice "What are you doing?"

"I made a deal with Percy here and I believe that it is very beneficial."

"What was the deal?"

She looked at him and he nodded then she looked at me and said, "He is going to help us until he is able to go home."

"What home?"

"I am from a different universe where my family is finding a way for me to stay alive, and until then I'm stuck here." Percy said.
