"I'm sorry, who?" Tony asks. Thor scowls at the man. Then, Bucky walks into the room, eating froot loops. He freezes.

"Am I interrupting?" he asks after swallowing. Arianna aruptly stands and walks to his side.

"You have a metal arm! Dude, that's so cool! What's this thing made of? Is it magnetic?" she asks before digging into her pocket. Bucky stares at the girl in awe, only Peter had ever reacted this way to his arm.

"Why do you have a magnet in your pocket?" Steve asks, being nice since Bucky seemed to like the girl.

"I'm ADHD," Arianna replies distractedly, holding the magnet and inch away from the arm and grinning with delight when it sticks.

"Alright Ari, leave the poor man's arm alone," Percy says, pulling his sister away. She pouts and Peter smiles despite himself. Then, Loki bursts through the balcony doors.

"What?" he asks Thor bluntly. Thor points to the teens but Arianna is already at the man's side.

"Nice dagger," she says, plucking the item from his belt.

"Hey," Loki protests. Arianna pulls a swiss army knife from her pocket and holds them up beside one another.

"How did you get that? I took it from you when you tried to carve things into your desk at home!" Percy asks.

"Yeah, and I took it back," Arianna says, twisting blades in the light.

"How? I hid it!" Percy exclaims, Arianna turns and gives him a deadpan look before tossing Loki's knife back to him.

"It needs to be sharpened," she says as she puts her army knife back into her pocket.
"We're supposed to be interrogating them!" Tony shouts.

"We could just fight them, if they're such amazing warriors," Natasha suggests. Arianna walks to Bucky.

"You'd fight her for me right? I don't want to hurt anyone," she says hiding slightly behind him.

"Of course," Bucky says reaching for his gun. Arianna slaps his hand away.

"There's no need for that," she tells him.

"My arm's to dangerous," Bucky says.

"Can your flesh hand bitch slap someone across the world? I think not, therefore I'll stick with the metal one," Arianna says. Steve smiles, the girl was growing on him and the boy wasn't bad either. These kids haven't done anything.

"We're not going to attack them," Clint says. Natasha shrugs and throws a knife at each of the teens anyway. They both instinctively catch them and throw them back at her, only Arianna's making a mark. Arianna runs to her side and inspects the arm.

"I'm fine," Natasha tells her. Arianna ignores the women's words and whispers something, her eyes flashing gold and the wound heals itself. Everyone's jaws drop and they gape at the teen.

"Staring is rude," Arianna tells them, turning a bit shy.

"Ari! You aren't supposed to do things like that!" Percy groans.

"Since when have we ever done what we're told?" Arianna wrinkles her nose as if even the thought disgusts her.

"That," Percy points at her, "Is a good point." Arianna laughs and Thor starts bouncing up and down.

"Dear Odin. The legends are true? Lady Hecate has chosen you to be her champion?" Loki asks. Arianna nods.

"So obviously, you should join the Avengers," Peter speaks up.

"Cool," Percy grins.

"Yep, you're Avengers now," Steve affirms.

"Woah, woah, wait. You can't just do that," Tony protests.

"I just did," Steve replies, before heading to the training room.
