2
3	After the Second Giant War, Percy just wants to relax and attend high school in peace. However, that plan is currently in the gutter. Hecate has vanished, and without her, the Mist is malfunctioning. Now all demigods are at risk of their world being discovered, and what's worse, they caught the attention of SHIELD...
4
5	----
6	!!''The Mist Has Fallen'' provides examples of:
7
8	* BarrierMaiden: Hecate was entrusted with maintaining the Mist, which ensures the {{Masquerade}}. Thus, her disappearance is potentially a disaster for the demigods as the mortals start to ''[[BrokenMasquerade notice]]'' them.
9	* BewareTheNiceOnes: Percy is quite a laidback goof who's hopelessly in love with his girlfriend... but when he and a younger demigod are captured by S.H.I.E.L.D., he threatens to unleash a hurricane on the Helicarrier and drown everyone aboard unless released. It would have killed 273 people, and he was okay with it.
10	* BrokenMasquerade: While the situation hasn't reached a full TheUnmasquedWorld scenario yet, not only has S.H.I.E.L.D. noticed the demigods and their abilities due to the Mist breaking down, but monsters are being noticed as well.
11	* BullyingADragon: From the perspective of the demigods, they are the collective "dragon" in this case. They just want to be left alone and deal with monsters by themselves, but S.H.I.E.L.D. won't leave them alone.
12	* CoveredWithScars: After a lifetime of fighting, Percy's body is a ruin to behold. His swimming team outright freak when they get to see it, which is the very first thing that clues him in that something is ''really wrong'' because normally the [[{{Masquerade}} Mist]] covered that up.
13	* CurbStompBattle: After six trained S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives armored with kevlar charge in with guns and threaten to shoot if Percy doesn't stand down and come along peacefully, he completely wipes the floor with them. Doesn't even break a sweat.
14	* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Just like in {{Canon}}, Percy has a habit of doing this towards the gods. However, after the last "favor" -- check war -- Percy has cheerfully made it ''absolutely clear'' that he doesn't owe them anything anymore. He refuses to act polite to any god who he doesn't personally respect and even demands both Hades and Hestia be inducted as members of the council. It shouldn't come to anyone's surprise that Hades is the only god to find that amusing.
15	* ExhaustedEyeBags: Nico has these just like in {{Canon}}. According to Percy though how he looks currently is an ''improvement'' since the war. He's even gained back all the weight he's lost since his time in the jar.
16	* FriendOrIdolDecision: Shounak Khatri idolizes the Avengers like any other teen, but he also considers Percy as a good friend, and thus is rather disturbed when the Avengers start to hunt Percy. He ultimately decides to help his friend.
17	* GodsHandsAreTied: When Percy is contacted by the Olympian Council in a dream, they reveal that they are currently all but powerless, bound into inaction by fate and someone very powerful, and thus are physically unable to directly help their children even with the Mist in tatters.
18	* HaveYouSeenMyGod: Hecate is AWOL, and in her absence the Mist is failing fast.
19	* HeroWorshipper: A lot of teens for the Avengers. Shounak's narration is dripping with awe for Captain America, while Zach -- a son of Demeter -- openly gushes over Hawkeye.
20	* HypocriticalHumor: After Leo complains to Jason and Piper they should stop making out or they'd be late for school, Jason immediately calls him out claiming he's done the exact same thing with Calypso.
21	* LetsSplitUpGang: The camp is forced to split up into ten groups with fifteen campers and at least three veterans in it after the [[{{Masquerade}} Mist]] stops working and they are discovered by S.H.I.E.L.D. This is because the more demi-humans are in one spot, the more monsters they attract, so it's too dangerous traveling all the way to New Rome together.
22	* LivingEmotionalCrutch: What Percy and Annabeth are to each other now. Percy and Annabeth outright admitted to themselves that after Tartarus they couldn't sleep without each other and if they were ever apart they would start getting panic attacks.
23	* MinorLivingAlone: Nico lives alone in a apartment below Percy and Annabeth's despite only being fourteen years old. The only reason people didn't recognize anything seriously wrong with that before was because of the [[{{Masquerade}} Mist.]]
24	* TheMole: Michael Dieter, the head of the tactical team sent after Percy, is a HYDRA operative.
25	* OlderThanTheyLook: PlayedForLaughs when Leo questioned why Nico was allowed coffee and he wasn't only for Nico to remind him he was a ''lot'' older then he looks.
26	-->'''Nico:''' Excuse you, I'm 86 years old. If anybody here needs coffee to get started in the morning it's me.
27	* PopCulturalOsmosisFailure: As Percy was busy in Greece, he wasn't there in New York City for the Incident and the Avengers' grand debut. Zach has to get him up to speed after he casually talks back to Black Widow.
28	* PowerMisidentification: S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers believe the demigods are merely enhanced humans.
29	** Shounack later assumes that the demigod powers are some kind of sorcery, and Katie just says that they "[[SureLetsGoWithThat can call it magic]]".
30	* PsychoactivePowers: Water within Percy's immediate vicinity tends to respond to his emotional state -- Captain America actually manages to peg him as a hydrokinetic after watching the video from his fight with SHIELD agents and noticing the clearly unnatural waves in the pool.
31	* SickeninglySweethearts:
32	** Percy and Annabeth are so ''cute'' together that a lot of their friends just want to barf, or kill them to not see the couple be sugary to each other.
33	** As we soon come to find out after this one encounter- Leo and Calypso are this to Jason.
34	--->'''Jason:''' You know I was scarred the other day when I walked into the garage! All I wanted was to ask you two what you wanted for dinner! Scarred, ''scarred'' I tell you! Nobody should have to see that! And you didn't even give me a good answer!
35	* SparedByTheAdaptation: Jason is still alive and kicking though it hasn't been explained how he survived.
36	* SureLetsGoWithThat: Basically Katie's response to Shounack assuming that the demigod powers of Percy and the others are magic of some kind.
37	* TeenGenius: Leo is quickly pegged as this by SHIELD for rigging a gigantic flashbang with less than five minutes to spare, as he was pursued by government agents.
38	* TheUnmasquedWorld: What Hecate and the Mist's disappearance threatens to cause, something that the demigods desperately want to avoid.
39	* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: How the Mist works -- Percy's swimming team actually could see his scars but couldn't care about that. So the ''aversion'' of the trope -- his teammates freaking in front of his injuries -- makes him understand that something is very wrong.
40	* WhatTheHellHero:
41	** Bruce Banner is extremely vocal with his disapproval of S.H.I.E.L.D. hunting scared teenagers merely for having superhuman abilities.
42	** Sally later reads the riot act to Captain America and Black Widow for making her son run away.
43	* WhiteAndGreyMorality: On one hand, S.H.I.E.L.D. rightfully worries about enhanced teens suddenly popping out of the woods and wants to ascertain if they're going to be a domestic threat. On the other hand, the demigods were happy to peacefully cohabit with mundane people and want to stay as far away as possible from secret agencies.
