Chapter Text
Stark Tower
It was a surprisingly quiet day in the tower. Percy and Bucky had just finished watching Nemo for the 5th time and were peacefully cuddling on the couch. Peter was on a call with Ned and Mj while doing his homework. And Tony was for once taking a nap out of his own free will.
When suddenly a flash of light transported and knocked them out to a room with couches arranged in a circle.
Wakanda
For the past few months the tension between the rogues had been almost unbearable. Clint and Natasha had been avoiding Steve and Wanda like their lives depended on it. Wanda had been avoiding everyone other than Steve. And Steve was trying to keep everyone together and wondering why Bucky left the way he did.
Sam had been keeping to himself and reflecting on his actions that got him here in the first place. Aka trusting and following Steve without question. And boy did he wish he asked some questions. He still thought of himself as Steve's friend but his recent actions have been leading him to think he should've tried to talk Steve out of running off on their own at the very least.
Shuri and T’Challa were trying to say out of it has much as possible. Which was easier for Shuri than her brother. She never really saw the rogues and only really talked to them regarding Bucky's condition. Now that Bucky was gone she stayed away from the side of the palace pretty much all together.
T’Challa on the other hand was not as lucky. Seeing as though he was the one to invite the rogues, he was also the one to deliver important, sometimes daily news, like today.
All the rogues were occupying the living room when T’Challa and Shuri walked in. When Steve caught sight of them he perked up considerably hoping they had some news about Bucky. He still didn’t trust Tony and knew that there had to be some motive for him wanting Bucky in the tower.
Before T’Challa or Shuri could even get a word in a flash of light transported and knocked them out too.
The Room
Percy was the first to wake. He made sure to keep his breathing steady and not to move so as to not alert whoever took him that he was awake. After years of being a mercenary and half-blood he was pretty good at it if he says so himself.
After 5 minutes of not hearing or feeling any both who weren't knocked out he decided that it was safe to get up and wake the others.
When he stood he finally got a good feel of the room. It was mostly empty except for the set of couches arranged in a circle and a set of books on the floor in the center of the circle. He could also feel some running water in the small room next to them so it was safe to assume that it was a bathroom.
He noticed that he was on one of the couches along with Bucky and Tony. On the couch next to them was Peter, Ned, Mj, and what was likely another teenager whom he had never met. And surprisingly on the couch across from him was Natasha, Clint, Fury, and a man who was in his 20-30s who he also didn't know. And the final couch was filled with two men, one who was likely a supersoldier based on how his blood feels, which means he's probably Steve Rogers, and one woman who also had to be enhanced based on her aura.
Before he could attempt to wake any of them up a loud ringing was heard around the room waking everyone up.
Peter jumped up the fastest but everyone was soon to follow. Well everyone except Percy, he already knew this was the work of the fates and knew there was nothing he could do so he just accepted it and waited for everyone to calm down. He could hear everyone start to throw accusations at each other and it was starting to get on his nerves.
“EVERYBODY SHUT UP”, Percy shouted finally at his limit. “Obviously nobody here has the power to bring all of us here so let all calm down and work together to get out of here. I don't know all of your names so introduce yourself and then will start planning” he finished. Everyone still looked at each other with suspicion but ultimately decided that he was probably right and that the only way they were going to get out of here was with each other's help.
“Tony Stark”, “Bucky Branes”, “Natasha Romanoff”, “Clint Barton”, Nick Fury”, Sam Wilson” Steve Rogers” Wanda Maximoff”, “T’Challa king of Wakanda”, “Shuri princess of Wakanda”, “Peter Parker”, “Ned Leeds”, MJ Jones”,”Percy Jackson”.
“Wait, why are some random teenagers here?” Sam asked, still in shock over what's happening. “Peter’s my personal intern and these are his friends” Tony answered, still trying to figure out how it was possible to get all of them here. “You don't have personal interns, '' Natasha shot back.
“Well maybe I've changed, '' Tony said, trying to take focus off the topic, he could tell it was starting to make Peter neverios. “I doubt that,” Wanda mumbled.
“Bucky-” Steve began “Not now Steve” Bucky interrupted, not ready to talk with Steve yet being that he was still angry. You could see the hurt in Steve's face, not that Percy cared, he hated Steve Rogers with a burning passion.
“Hey, what are these?” Peter asked while holding the stack of books. “Those are for all of you.” a voice said, making everybody jump. “Who are you.” Fury demanded, looking up where the voice came from. “We are the Fates” another voice said.
“Like Greek mythology” Tony said subtly looking at Percy to see him lightly nodding. “That's impossible Greek mythology isn't real,” Clint said. “We are very real,” a third voice said, sounding slightly annoyed.
“What do you want from us then? '' Natasha asked, sounding perfectly calm while still being tense. “We want you to read these book about a hero who will help you against a future threat,” the first voice said.
“What threat” Percy asked, knowing the fate rarely warned about the future. “His name is Thanos and he wishes to eliminate half the population across the universe,” the second voice said. “Why would he want to do that?” Ned asked quickly, going from excited to scared. “He believes that killing half the population will save the other half,” the third voice said.
“So he's insane then” MJ commented trying to ignore the spark of fear she felt. “Yeah basically” the first voice said lightly.
“So this ally will help defeat Thanos, correct?” Steve asked. “Yes”. “So, who are they and why do we need to read about them?” Sam asked feeling overwhelmed. “Most of you already know him but do not know his true power or origin so the book will teach you to understand him” the second voice said.
“Makes sense” Bucky says, already having a feeling about who this “ally” is and by looking at Percy's face has a feeling he knows too.
“Well, let's start reading then I guess” Clint says while picking up the first book. “What's the title?” Shuri asked. “The Lighting Thief” Clint answers.
Hearing the name confirmed that this was going to be Percy’s worst nightmare.
