Natasha's POV

After the kids agreed to join the Avengers, we had to ask some questions about them. "First of all," Tony started. "What are demi-gods?" He asked. The teens were quiet until somone started talking. "They are the mortal children of gods and goddess' they have abilites and weapons." He said. "What's your name?" Steve asked. "Nico." He answered. Steve nodded, then he turned to Percy. "Your file said that you carried a ballpoint pen, but you attacked me with a sword. How?" He asked. Pecry laughed and then answered. "First of all, didnt attack you, you attacked me, second of all, it's not just a ballpoint pen, you can write with it if you want a huge hole in your paper." Steve and the rest of us looked confused then looked at it again. "Hah, just look, oh and stand back." He stood up and then pushed down his pen and a long blade stuck out and locked into place. It was mesmerizing. 

Next, Bruce stepped forward and asked a question. "So if you guys are only 17 or less and are demi-gods, what were you doing sleeping in an alley? Don't they have a like, home for that or something?" The kids all looked down. "Actually, we do have homes. Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter. Jason, Piper, Hazel and I are from Camp Jupiter, because our parents are Roman gods. Percy, Annabeth and Nico are from Camp Half-Blood because their parents are Greek gods. And don't say that they are like mortal enimes because they aren't." Leo said with a small smile. "Okay, and why aren't you there?" Bruce asked. "Well, besides the fact that you kidnapped us from our alley, Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter were destroyed in the war against Gaea and so we were forced to keep moving so that monstors wouldn't rack us in one spot, we were just in that alley for a night." Leo finished. Bruce nodded his head and backed up.

"We're sorry." I said. Leo looked confused. "For what?" He asked. "Well, for one, kidnapping you, as you put it and of couse, your homes." He nodded, then he smiled a dirty smile, one that resembled Tony a lot. Oh no, not another one of him. "You know, that means a lot coming from a pretty woman like you." He said and everyone at their table looked at him in confusion and shock. "What, you know it's true." I blushed and felt the eyes of everyone on my team on me. I ignored them and continued talking. "So, I will let you know were you guys sleep and who you feel be sleeping with." Leo laughed. "Hopefully you." He said. I blushed again. This time Piper and Annabeth stopped him. "Leo, stop, you are 17! Quit it!" Piper yelled. "Really, Leo?" Annabeth said. "So, I'll show you girls to were you will be sleeping, Tony, you take the boys." I said quickly walking off. I could hear Leo and his friends laughing and of course, everyone on my team probably was, too. "Boys." Annabeth said with a shake of her head. "But aren't both of you dating one of them?" I asked. Piper laughed. "Unfortunetly, yes." She said. I smiled and led them down a hallway. "But Percy and Jason are, well, different..."  When we reached the room, I let Piper and Annabeth in and gave them a key card. "This is for this room and this room only. It won't work on any other rooms. There are three beds and three of everything else here and of course, a bathroom. You guys have fun, I will be back." I said and walked back into the meeting room.

Annabeth's POV 

"Nice room." Piper said once we had went in and Natsha had left. "It makes me miss camp more." I said with a frown and plopped down on the bed to the left. "Oh, comfy." I said. "I know, right, so much better than teh ones at Camp, right?" She asked. I nodded and then layed out flat. "So, what do you think about what Leo said?" Piper asked. I blushed and then laughed. "He is so adorable. He just wants to find love before he thinks it's to late." I said. "The boy is 17! He has time, and he and Natasha, never gonna happen." Piper said while laughing shortly after. "I know, right!" I said. Piper and I are good friends. We heard a knock at the door and then opened it. It was Hazel. "Oh, hey, how are you?" I asked her, She smiled. "I miss Camp Jupiter, but this is an upgrade." She said taking the unoccupied bed. "So, what were you guys giggling about?" She asked. We then started alughing again. "Leo trying to hut on Natasha!" Then Hazel started to join in our outbreak and we laughed until it hurt. 

"So, are you guys gonna go and eat?" Hazel asked, wipping her eye with her finger. Piper and I did the same. "i didn't know that there was food?" I said. Piper jumped up and yelled, "Then it is now our first mission to get our dinner and go to bed in our new dorms!" She yelled. We started to laugh again but quickly regretted that because we were still sore from before.

We headed down to the kitchen and saw that the boys and the Avengers were already seated. "So, you guys think that my flirting with Natasha was wierd?" Leo asked with a smile. I blushed. "You heard us?" I asked. Percy nodded. "Our dorms are a few doors apart from each other. Plus, you guys were loud." He said with a smile. We sat down and looked at Leo. "Why do you like her anyways?" Hazel asked. "Because she is hot." He said with a wave of his hand for affect. We laughed again. "That laugh is so sexy." Percy said looking at me. I blushed. "That is, too." He said. I hid my face from him and he lifted it up and smashed our lips together. We kissed for a while when we heard, "Ah, get a room!" Leo yelled, getting the attention of the Avengers. "Do we need to separate anyone?" Tony asked. We all shook our heads and turned back around to look at Leo. "WTF, bro." Percy said, punching him in the shoulder. He winced and then laughed.

After lunch, Hazel, Piper and I walked back to ur dorm. "Today was, well, weird." Hazel said when we sat down. "Yeah, I mean, we went from sleeping in an alley to sleeping in a skyscraper. What are the god's up to?" I asked, looking at the ceiling. "Guys, keep it down, the boys can hear us!" Piper said extra loud so that she could tease them. We laughed and started talking some more. After a while, Piper and Hazel had drifted off, so I realized that it was probably late and that I should go to sleep, too. I lay back and look at the ceiling, "Mom, can you hear me?" I asked the ceiling. No response. "Well, if you are listening, I just want you to know that I am okay. And that, I love you." Still no response so I rolled onto my side and closed my eyes. I was asleep for maybe only 10 minutes when a loud crash hit the window. Glass shattered everywhere and a piece cut my neck. I grabbed my knife and rolled out of bed to face the intruder. Piper and Hazel were up, too, weapons ready. But what we saw was not what we were expecting. There, with her beautiful features stood the enemy that we thought was long gone.
