Natasha's POV
I opened my eyes, only to have them close again because of the bright light above me. I then open them again but more slowly. Once my eyes got used to the light, I sat up and groaned. My leg hurt and I had a horrible headache. I looked at my surroundings and came to the conclusion that I was in the infirmary at Stark tower.
That's when I remembered what happened. I jumped off the bed and looked for Percy. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw him a few beds down. I walked to him and pulled up a chair beside him. I turned around when I heard the door open behind me. It was Bruce.
"You're awake. Good."
I looked at him. "When will Percy wake up?"
"He should wake up any minute now actually." That's when Percy's eyes snapped open and he sat up. He groaned.
"What happened? I have a horrible headache."
I told him that he was shot with a tranquilizer gun. He grimaced remembering what happened. Then his eyes hardened and he tensed. I gave him a questioning look and he relaxed. "Percy? What's wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing. I'm starving. Let's go eat." He jumped up and walked out of the room. I sighed and followed him. Something happened in that room and I'm going to find out what.
Percy's POV
It was dark and there was nothing. Absolutely nothing. But then I heard a voice. 'It's not the end Perseus. I will get my revenge. My mistress promised me. Everything will change young demigod. Everything.' And then I woke up. All I could think about was my headache. I groaned. "What happened? I have a horrible headache."
Natasha explained everything to me and then I remembered my dream. I tensed. When I saw Natasha looking at me questioningly, I relaxed. I can't give anything away. "Percy? What's wrong?" She asked.
"Nothing. I'm starving. Let's go eat." I jumped off the bed and walked out of the room and went to the kitchen. I sat down on a chair at the kitchen counter and sighed. Annabeth was right. Something big is coming. I needed to tell her about this. Later though. I'll do it tonight. I snapped back to attention. Everybody was in the room now and looking at me.
"What?" I asked.
"I asked you if you were alright. You kind of zoned out there." Steve stated.
"I'm fine. Just thinking."
"Okay then. Tony, make sure you are stocked up on strawberry poptarts. Thor is coming today and you know how much he loves those." Tony just mumbled something about how Thor always eats his poptarts and wastes his money.
"Who's Thor?" I asked.
"The other team member I was telling you about." Natasha told me. "He should be here later today. You can meet him then." I sighed and made myself some waffles.
---------------------------------------------
"Come on! That was the tenth time!!" Clint shouted.
I shrugged and sipped my Coke. Clint and I were playing a game called 'Call of Duty.' (Hopefully the monsters don't find me. I would hate to pause my game just because I had to fight some monsters.) It was pretty fun. Clint challenged me to a game, and apparently he has never been beaten. Until now. On the first game, he beat me while I was figuring out the controls. But then all the other times, yup. You guessed it. I beat him.
"Again!!"
I sighed. "Come on Clint. It's been ten games, and I beat you every time. When are you just going to give up and claim defeat?"
"Never!!" he yelled. I sighed for what felt like the millionth time, and we started a new round. I beat him. Again. Now Clint is just sitting on the couch accepting defeat. I heard the elevator door open, and assumed it was Natasha.
"Natasha. Can you come cheer up Clint?" I asked. When I didn't get an answer, I turned around just to see a dude with long blonde hair and a bunch of armor. I jumped up from the couch and slipped my hand in my pocket.
The guy reeked of godly energy. Which wasn't good. And he wasn't any of the gods I know. I felt my eyes harden. "Who are you?" I asked.
"Relax Percy. It's just Thor." Clint told me.
I somewhat relaxed but not fully. "Is he some sort of God?"
Instead of Clint answering, Thor did. "Yes. I am Thor. Norse god of Asgard. Who are you?"
I hesitated. The last time someone asked my name, I was accused of being a terrorist. "Percy Jackson." I said.
Thor's eyes widened and he smiled a huge smile. Then he squealed.
Just take this in my point of view: this manly (I guess. I mean the hair is a little much) god dude heard my name and squealed. But he didn't just squeal mind you; no, he also moved his arms in tightly held jazz hands.
Wouldn't you find that weird?
Natasha, Tony, Bruce, and Steve came running into the room. "What happened? We heard squealing." Tony yelled.
Then they looked at Thor and realized that it was him who squealed. "THE Perseus Jackson?!" He asked. I nodded my head slowly. Thor squealed some more, and then realized he had an audience and calmed down.
"I'm sorry. Do I know you?" I asked.
"No, Perseus. But I know you. You are a legend on Asgard!!" I realized he must know that I'm a demigod and he must've heard of my feats. I laughed nervously and glanced around. Everybody was just looking between me and Thor.
"So! Anybody up for cookies?" I asked. It was kind of random, and I didn't answer him back, but I wanted to get the attention off of me and Thor. Plus I hoped that everybody forgot about this little exchange. My statement broke the silence and everybody started moving. They sat at the counter and had Clint tell them about how I beat him at his favorite game while I made cookies.
-------------------------------------------------
After cookies I excused myself and went to my room to call Annabeth. "Oh, Fleecy, do me a solid, and show me Annabeth at Camp-Half blood."
"Excuse me Perseus?" A voice retaliated. I winced. Iris was doing the messages today. Oops.
"Um. I mean Oh Iris, goddess of the rainbow, show me Annabeth at Camp-Half blood?" I squeaked out.
"Better." She replied. Then an image of Annabeth formed. She was at the dining pavilion eating dinner.
"Annabeth!" I yelled.
Everybody quieted down once they realized I was Iris Messaging Annabeth. "Percy!! Are you okay?"
"Yes. Annabeth, we need to talk." Her eye brows furrowed together and she excused herself from the table. She walked to the front of my cabin and sat down in the porch steps.
"What is it Percy?" She asked.
I told her about my dream and as I finished, I could practically see the gears in her brain working at a thousand miles an hour trying to figure out what the threat is. "Well, we now know that the two main threats are feminine. But we need to figure out who they are. If only Chiron would let me leave. Then we could get together and figure it out."
I thought for a moment and came up with an idea. "How did you ask Chiron the first time to leave?"
"I told him I wanted to visit you. But I didn't tell him about the threat."
"Just tell him the truth wise girl. He'll say yes." She said that she would try and swiped her hand through the mist.
I sighed, again, and laid down in my bed hoping for Chiron to say yes.
