A/N: Hello peoples! I've been working my butt off over different chunks of this story, so that means two things. 1 is that there will be more frequent updates for at least the first parts of the story, since they are mostly written and will not take long to complete. Be happy for that! The other is that since I'm really motivated with this, this might get a slight priority over my other stories, but don't worry, I will update the others, I promise. I lied, it really means 3 things and the third is that I really want and need feedback because I've worked so hard on this. I've spent hours writing this, take a minute to write a couple of words. This has a ton of OC's, thanks to some of my friend's ideas, but I really try to make sure that the rest of the Avengers are included and well balanced. Also, just to let you know, Cadaver (you'll meet her later) will appear, maybe differently, in Kimanicat99's story, Monster School (you should check it out!). This chapter is short, but I think I'll post soon again, so you won't have to wait long for more. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: Although I own all of my awesome OC's that I could make a brilliant story out of, the backbone of this idea is the Avenger characters, and sadly, I do not own them.

Bruce sighed, then looked back at the door. He had to try, but he knew he wasn't going to do well. He missed Pepper, who was on the other side of the world on an important business call. She would know how to handle this, he thought as he steadied to enter Tony's lab. "Tony!" He called, and Tony poked out his head from underneath a car and replied, "Whassup Bruce? Need something?"

He took a fortifying breath and decided to go straight to the point, "There's a meeting,"

"Nope." Tony cut him off and rolled back beneath the Mustang. Bruce scolded himself, because he suddenly remembered the one strict piece of advice Pepper had been able to give him. Do not, on any occasion, use the word meeting until you want the conversation to end were her exact words.

"Look, you need to be there," He tried again, but Tony's muffled voice declared, "No, actually, I don't. I always know what's going on anyway, and all we end up doing is arguing."

"Because of you." Bruce countered calmly.

"Exactly! Maybe I just shouldn't go to the meetings at all. It'd save a lot of people the pain…"

"I'm sure it would, but Tony, you have to go to this."

"Look, this 'wonderful, absolutely necessary to go to meeting' is either going to be about saving the world or paperwork. If it's saving the world again, I would've known about it, and it doesn't take a darn meeting for me to suit up, and if it's paperwork, then tell Fury from me to shove his head up his ass. I'm not going."
"This is different-"

But Tony just continued on his rant, "Does Thor have to go? Does Pepper? Huh, huh? I don't see why I have to go if they don't."

"First of all, Thor is in Asgard, and second, Pepper isn't even in the Avengers, you know that Tony."

"Well, she should be, and Asgard is such a brilliant excuse. Tell everyone that I'm in the lab and not available because going up the elevator would cause the arc reactor too much power and it would shut down, and the stairs are tedious and also on fire. That should satisfy them. Asgard, hmmf."

"Tony, just go to the goddamn meeting!"

"Wow, I got Dr. Banner to curse. You gonna hulk out there, buddy? And still, no."

"Do you even know what this meeting's about?"

"Something boring or other. I don't need to know about it. Probably just backwash from another mission."

"They're adding people to the Avengers team. This is going to be us meeting them."

This caught Tony's attention, and the billionaire rolled out completely, covered in grease. "More people?! We already have enough psychopaths in this team to drive Fury crazy, and they think the director can handle more?!"

"Well, I'm sure Fury will be glad to know you care so much about him." Bruce remarked drily, "In fact, you can tell him yourself. Get cleaned up and meet us at the landing pad in an hour."

"And if I don't?"

"Then Natasha told me to tell you this exact message. Jarvis." Bruce said, and Jarvis rang out from the ceiling, "Recording from Miss Romanoff: Stark, get your sorry but up here, because you're going to that meeting. Remember, Fury didn't mention what condition you had to be in." That made Tony head toward the shower and Bruce grin. He didn't like threats, but it had shortened an argument that he thought would go on for hours.

Tony wanted to fly the ironman suit to the heli-carrier, but one deadly glare from Natasha sent him into the jet that she flew and Clint co-piloted. They eventually landed and the team minus Thor strolled inside, enjoying the awed and frightened looks the newbies and interns were giving them. Tony stopped three times on the way to conference room, one to point out that an intern was playing Galaga, another to get a drink, then spitting it out because it was 'weak' and the last time to tell a scientist they passed that he had gotten a crucial calculation wrong ("just thought you might not mean to blow up half the heli-carrier.") causing the scientist to have a near heart attack from embarrassment. Eventually though, they were able to sit down at the table without too much fuss, and begin to pester Fury about the new team members. It was like penetrating a brick wall, and one by one, the Avengers began to give up, other than Tony, whose personal mission in life is 'to annoy the heck out of Fury till the day he dies'. Let's just say that it was the beginning of a bad day for the director.

Please review! I'm really psyched about this story, and I need support to be able to continue it. You'll meet some of my OC's next chapter! Again, I'm gonna keep repeating this until I hypnotize you to do it, Review!
