Author's Note
This is the first piece of fanfiction that I have ever written and finished. I am still editing the last part but I hope that you like this. I don't own the Avengers or have any right to them. Any and all mistakes are mine own.
Tony
It was a normal evening in the Avengers Tower, well as normal as it could be. Tony was stood at the bar where he could keep an eye on the entire room and have a conversation with JARVIS without anyone ears dropping. However JARVIS had currently disappeared, something he always did when Director Fury was around. Oh well, thought Tony and went back to watching the other Avengers. Steve had stood up when Fury entered the room and was now in deep conversation with the Director about something. Tony hoped that it wasn't another surprise mission, he'd had enough off those for one week. But seeing as Steve was the one holding forth in the conversation, it probably wasn't about that. Thor on the other hand had taken up an entire sofa and one of the chairs, he was reading a book that Jane had given him about Norse mythology. Currently he was going through it and chuckling to himself while scribbling notes in the margins. He had spread himself out, nearly breaking the sofa as he collapsed onto it, throwing his hammer onto the chair beside him. That chair had sunk into the floor, great thought Tony. He turned to look at Clint and Nat. Clint, with his aversion to chairs, was perched on the back of the sofa trying to catch popcorn in his mouth. If Clint hadn't been a skilled assassin and gymnast then Tony would be wondering how he hadn't fallen off backwards yet. Nat was sucking on Cherry pips, from the large bowl in her lap, she seemed to the pips to the actual cherries. She looked like she was in deep thought but Tony figured that she was quietly surveying the room and sizing up the three men who had entered. In actual fact Nat wasn't surveying the room. It had taken a long time but she was learning to relax, and she figured that Clint was surveying the three men. He wasn't. Which was why the two S.H.I.E.L.D agents that Fury had brought with him had managed to slip away unnoticed.
They were getting ready to start their James Bond movie marathon part seven. It was meant to be part two but a mixture of alien invasions, evil mad scientists, Thor being in Asgard, Tony or Bruce blowing something up and one or more of the team being away on a secret mission for S.H.I.E.L.D. (Tony was convinced that Fury didn't want them to have this movie marathon. Which was fair. One of them had ended with the Hulk and Thor destroying a brand new quinjet and levelling and entire floor of Avengers Tower, as it was now called by everyone but Tony. He had paid for it, designed it and helped build it. In fairness that was mostly Thor's thought, but Tony still got the blame.) Meant that they hadn't gotten around to it.
However, tonight was going to be different thought Tony, they were all here, except Bruce who was just changing after another explosion in the lab. But he'd be here in a minute and Fury would have to leave. It wasn't that Fury didn't like Bruce, he liked Bruce, he just wasn't too sure about the other guy and knowing what Bruce looked like Fury would leave thinking that the other guy might make a show if he stayed and talked business. Why was Fury here thought Tony? He normally sent Coulson or Hill. Tony liked Coulson he wasn't so uptight, he let them have their movie night, Hill also but she was a bit like Fury always so focused on the job. Whenever Fury showed up it was because something was in trouble or because he wanted to just hang out with them and Tony could count the number of times that that had happened on one hand. So what was Fury doing here tonight, of all nights? This was confirming Tony's theory though that Fury didn't want them to have a movie marathon. Tony wasn't quite sure why, I mean Fury didn't watch movies, everyone was certain of that.
Tony looked at his watch and frowned slightly, Bruce should be here by now. It never took Bruce long to change, years spent waking up naked after he changed Tony guessed. Also Bruce was the one who had set this all up, mainly to shut Tony up about it. Tony looked back at Fury, something was different. Hadn't he brought two agents with him? He was sure that Fury hadn't come alone. Tony looked around again. No one was paying much attention to him. Good, thought Tony as he started to slip out of the room. He'd find Bruce maybe make him a tiny bit angry, just for dramatic affect and then push the scientist in front of Fury, which would definitely make Fury leave.
Just as Tony was working out how to make Bruce go a little green, the two S.H.I.E.L.D agents that Fury had brought with him came flying through the wall. Great, thought Tony now I have to re-build that wall, again.
