Percy Jackson and The Avengers

Finding Out The Truth

Tony POV

When I hear the scream in the middle of the night I race to the sound of it. Obviously the rest of the team has the same idea and we all end up standing outside of Prissy's room.

Bruce glances at us hesitantly before saying, "Hey kid, you alright?"

No response.

I decide I've had enough of this and burst through the door to figure out why the hell the kid thought it was a good idea to interrupt my beauty sleep.

The rest of the team gathers around to take in the sight before us.

Prissy is shaking like a leaf in his bed while twisting and turning, like he is having a nightmare at the moment. I am about to turn around and stomp out deciding that he is just being a wimp when he screams again.

Bruce immediately leaves the room leaving us with a whimpering boy not really sure what to do.

Prissy starts mumbling things.

"No.. Pain.. Annabeth..."

Bruce re-enters the room with some equipment in his hands. He plugs a couple of wires into the tv and then attached the wires to the kid's head.

"What are you doing?" Natasha questions suspiciously.

"Do you want to know what he is dreaming about?"

"What?"

"You heard me."

"But .. b-but that's impossible!"

"This is science.. Nothing is impossible."

The tv screen flickers on and we see Percy being dragged by some strange monster things. He is covered head to toe in blood and his breathing is heavy.

I immediately feel bad for the kid and want to help him. Then I remember theta the squirt can beat me in a fight and that we're enemies.

We watch as he collapses on the ground, and I hear Steve wince when the camera zooms in on the obviously broken leg.

He then heals himself with the water in the air.. Okay that is insanely cool, I have to admit.

We then watch as he breaks out of the prison by manipulating the guards using the water vapor in the air. He starts to look dead tired but he keeps going.

When he approaches the exit I am prepared to watch him come out .. Get blinded by the light I the sun.. Laugh with relief as he looks at the sky for ye first time.. Or at least something cliche like that.

What actually happens shocks me.

Instead of the peaceful, beautiful earth that I was expecting to see I see a monstrous cavern. The floor is black which I quickly realize to be little shards of glass.. I can see the poisonous air and the whole place has a red glow to it.

Where is he?

We watch as Prissy stumbles along to another building, he yanks open the door and we can see a very pretty girl chained up and being dragged to some kind of post.

This girl is a total babe, I would definitely tap that. I wonder if Prissy could introduce me?

Prissy talks to the guards about something but I'm not I really listening. My focus is completely on the blonde babe.

Suddenly the girl is thrown to the ground as Percy is captured and tied to the post.

"I'll take Annabeth's punishment as well." prissy says.

The monsters smirk, and I watch in horror as they pull out a whip.

"They aren't seriously going to..." I hear Natasha mutter from beside me.

Nobody answers her, too engrossed in watching the scene play out. After about a hundred whips I can't watch anymore and take my eyes of the scene.

I look at the team and see Natasha buried in Clint's shoulder with a pained expression.

Bruce has a horror stricken expression as he glance at the screen every now and then.

Steve and Thor both watch with blank expression their faces not betraying any emotion.

We hear tv Percy scream in pain at the same time as real Percy. Can he still feel the pain?

The screen goes black before we see the girl standing over Percy's mangled body.

"Thank you for saving me.." She whispers before the dream morphs back into darkness. Bruce hurries over to percy expecting him to wake up. He doesn't.

Bruce is about to try shaking him awake when the tv flickers back on. a new scene comes into view.

A battle is raging our and the Avengers watch Percy kick ass in the middle of the battlefield. Okay, maybe he is a good fighter..

The kid has had a hard past and I should probably try to become friends with him. He looks like he needs a friend.

The tv zooms in on two bodies, one girl and one boy. Both of them are covered in blood and lying on the floor. Dead.

My attention turns back to real Percy as he squirms in his bed muttering things like.

"No .. Piper... Jason... No... dead.. no.."

I feel bad for the kid. These are obliviously two of his friends. The scene changes to more dead kids. Each dead or dying in the middle of the battle.

Percy keeps mumbling in his sleep, "No.. please .. Don't die.. Leo.. Nico.. no.. I'm sorry.."

The last person we watch die is the same blonde from the previous video. We watch as she is strangled to death by a creepy woman.

"Annabeth!" Real percy screams as he writhes around in his bed.

The tv goes dark and we all settle around Percy worried about what we just saw.

He opens his eyes and I can tell from the look of pain that everything we just watched was real. A memory.

From this experience I see Percy in a new light. He isn't the weak, egotistical guy I thought he was.

Percy is strong. I immediately start to look up to this kid.

We sit there while Percy looks around at all of us trying to figure out what is going on.

He starts talking to the other members of the team but I'm not really paying attention.

"I'm sorry" I blurt out.

He looks at me shocked and confused, I continue.

"Can we start over, Percy? Clean slate?" He looks at me before grinning.

"Thank you... For calling me percy."

He looks at me mischievously and I know that we are going to be the best of friends...
