Hey guys, it's AHermioneH and her co-writer StormSunfire here. This is a Percy and Clint based crossover where we may have manipulated the timelines quite a bit to get to where we wanted. So, here's the timeline-y stuff:

The Avengers has been boosted into the future by quite a few years, and Clint is younger than he is in the MCU.

The Great Prophecy has been shifted back a bit, as demigod powers only emerge during adulthood in this 'verse.

It will eventually catch up with MCU canon and the majority of PJO.

That sound confusing? Good, it does to us as well.

Also the prologue is kind of short, but the chapter that follows it is massive, so...

Warnings: Pretty dark compared to PJO canon and confronts themes of child abuse (though, admittedly, probably not that well)

-2022

The hotel room was thin-walled and dingy, the slightly squeaky and rusted fan in the corner succeeding only in pushing the hot, stuffy air around a bit. I sighed deeply, pushing lungfuls of air into the room.

I'm not a fan of missions like these, with horrid environments and stupid, creepy, slightly derelict locations. They make me jumpy.

I heard a distant thud and the tinkling sound of breaking glass and was spinning to press my back against the wall before I'd even strung two thoughts together about what it could mean.

There was a second crash, louder this time.

As a figure fell straight through the window into the room with a muffled curse.

I lifted my gun, pointing it towards the minefield of shattered fragments, and kicked the small coffee table out of the way.

Only to stare down at an awfully familiar face, which split into a somewhat lopsided grin. The intruder raised his hands in a mocking surrender. "Long time no see, dude."

I lowered the gun. "What the fuck are you doing in South Peru?"
