This Monster, This Hero
Tony Stark was having a good day. He was working on a new Ironman suit. Hulk and Hawkeye were out, so the house was quiet. He could hear his radio for once. At this rate he'd have the new suit finished in no time. Reaching back for a spanner he found himself humming along to the radio. He could get used to this, knowing his luck though there would be some major catastrophe that the avengers would have to deal with. Everyone seemed to want to attack lately despite the fact that the Avengers always came out on top. Still if it was quiet for too long that could be equally as worrying as imminent attacks.
Steve Rogers was in the mansion's gym, lifting weights in blissful silence. Steve liked silence it helped him concentrate. He was still adapting to this time, but found it easy to think when he was doing something mechanical, like lifting weights. Thankfully no one had come to disturb him today, so he could work his body whilst letting his mind wonder. Black Panther was in Wakanda and had taken Ant-Man with him, Captain America liked the Panther. He followed orders, but knew when to take action too. He was quiet and thoughtful and knew when not to ask stupid questions. Unlike several other people he could think of. Ant-Man, he knew, had a brilliant mind but was more of a pacifist than a fighter, Steve didn't have a problem with that, he just found it strange that someone with the technology to make himself huge and tiny, didn't want to use that to stop people who were evil. Deciding to let his mind go blank for a while, Rogers let himself drift away whilst his arm carried on pumping the weights.
Thor was again talking to Jane Foster. He liked the bravery of the paramedic. She put herself in danger despite not having any powers or basic fighting training, to help people. He was intrigued by her. They were once again discussing his father, and despite the fact that Jane couldn't help him get back into Asgard, she was sympathetic and offered advice. He found all mortals intriguing really. Although Stark and his technology did occasionally cause him anger and confusion, Ironman had saved him on several occasions.
Wasp was enjoying herself on the roof of the Avengers mansion, happily sunning herself by the pool. Last time she had been up here had been with the Hulk and Hawkeye and it had started snowing. She scanned the sky quickly, seeing nothing but blue sky. Before sighing in relief, she did not want a repeat of that! Still it was definitely better to have company up here, maybe she could convince Tony and Cap to come up and relax for once. A day of doing nothing would probably do them both some good.
All of the Avengers were interrupted from their activities by their communications cards. Hawkeye's face came into focus, a trashed building behind him. "Hey guys, Bigfoot and I kinda got into some trouble, woah" Hawkeye's face ducked out of shot and several laser beams shot across the screen, several arrows flew across in retaliation before Clint appeared again blood flowing from a cut across his temple, "We could use some help" "Clint!" Tony's voice "What's going on?" "Sure Stark let me just tell all these Hydra goons to wait for a sec while I call for backup…" Tony rolled his eyes, ignoring the chuckle of Wasp's that transmitted over the line. "We'll be there in a minute Clint, just…" He was cut off by a cry from the archer who was knocked out of view by a big green blur. The Hulk. "Hulk? What just happened?" yelled Tony. The Hulk then disappeared as an explosion blanked the entire screen out. When it cleared neither Hulk nor Hawkeye were anywhere to be seen. The image of smoke billowing out of several buildings flickered before cutting off entirely. Tony sighed so much for a relaxing day.
"Avengers assemble!"
