Percy's POV

I'm at my mom's house with Paul, Mom, and baby Estelle. Mom invited me back from Alaska to see Estelle for the first time.

I moved to Alaska after the gods blessed me for fighting in the war against Gaea and the lose of the other six of the seven. The gods have no power in Alaska so they can't do anything there. I also had three wishes two of which I used.

The blessings are as following;

Zeus: the ability to travel in the air without being blasted out of the sky.

Hades: the ability to talk to ghost, raise them up and to shadow travel.

Poseidon: better control over my powers.

Hera: mind control.

Demeter: control of plants, the knowledge of all plants.

Athena: as smart as her children if not smarter.

Apollo: talent in singing, dancing, medicine, and archery.

Artemis: archery and ability to talk to animals.

Ares: the ability to win every fight I get into and knowledge of all weapons.

Aphrodite: extreme beauty and she tried to give me charm speak but instead I got Siren speak.

Hephaestus: fire resistance and the ability to build whatever I want with enough time.

Hermes: the ability to steal anything without getting caught.

Hestia: the ability to cook amazing meals.

Dionysus: the ability to change any drink into wine or the opposite.

I tried to convince Mom to move in with me but her life is in New York no matter how much trouble happens in New York. She didn't want to be a burden but she could never be.

Mom needed a few things from the store so here I am in the baking section. Turns out that Mom miss calculated the ingredients that she needed for a triple batch of her blue cookies. I look at all the supplies for baking then the list and picked up what I need. I start walking towards the check out lines when my soul mark starts to burn. 

What I know about soul marks is that your soul mark will burn when close to your soul mate and won't stop till you find them. As you get closer it will get worse and when you finally get to them it'll stop. That's for normal people with one soul mark. I have two which there are only five cases ever recorded before me.

Hopeful I'll be able to find both of my soul mates if one is alive!

I decide to ignore the burning sensation for right now and buy the stuff Mom needs for the cookies. I check out and the burning sensation gets worse and worse as I start to walk out of the store. I bump into someone and suddenly the pain stops in my shoulder. 

I look up to see a very tall man with dark brown hair that ends at the nape of his neck. He looks buff but what really catches my eye is that his arm is metal. What happened to it.

"I'm so sorry," I apologize to my soul mate before going to leave.

The man has other ideas," Where do you think your going doll? I just found you I'm not letting you go so soon," he says before pulling me into a hug.

"I have to go, I'm sorry," I say while pulling away.

I run away from the man say he goes to say something else. I rush to my house dodging other people on my way back to Mom and Paul's apartment.

I quickly enter the apartment and give Mom the ingredients before excusing myself to my room. Normally I wouldn't have because Mom would know something was up but at this point and time I don't really care.

I lay in my bed thinking about my first soul mate. I think about his long brown hair. His broad shoulder and the way the stubble on his chin looked amazing. I think back on his metal arm. On his should he had a red star, that is almost like my soul mark for him. The only difference is that it looks as though my arm was ripped and the arm was peaking out from behind.

I sigh, I wish I never ran from him.

Bucky's POV (few minutes before they found each other)

Tony decided he wanted to cook but needed a few different ingredients. Of course I thought Steve would go with me after he suggested I go. Instead Tony decided that I was ready to go somewhere without a chaperon. 

I took my motorcycle and go to one of the best stores in New York. I park as my soul mark started to burn. 

The other Avengers described the whole soul mark thing to Steve and me. If you soul mark starts to burn you are in close proximity to your soul mate. As you grow closer to each other it will burn worse until you touch them.

Once you touch them you with have a bond, you will begin to feel each other's emotions and as you grow closer you can even hear their thoughts.

I begin to look around but I couldn't find anyone that seemed to be feeling a burning sensation so I head to the front door. 

As I walked closer it got worse and worse until a short woman bumps into me. I look at her as she looks up at me.

"I'm so sorry!" My soul mate apologizes before turning to leave.

I grip her into a hug and say," Where do you think you are going doll? I just found you I'm not letting you go so soon!"

She twists in my arms and I release her," I have to go, I'm sorry," and she ran.

I stand there in shock before heading back to the tower to talk to Steve. Hopefully we will see each other again soon.

I hope you all liked this chapter. Just to let you know right now I'm under a lot of stress so updates may be sporadic. No joke, I may update twice in one day and not go for two months. I'm sorry if that actually happens but we are in the process of moving to a new house, my friend got cancer, and my therapist said my depression is back. Now on a brighter note! Here are the soul marks!
