Loki Visits the Avengers: New Year's
Disclaimer: Still don't own any of them, and I never will!
Author's Note: Hey guys! Sorry for the late post, I've been away for Christmas. I'd like to say thank you to Loki's Aela Winchester Stark and pallyndrome for their comments! To say they made me smile would be an understatement (it's nice to know there are living beings reading my stories out there! :D ). So, here is the start of the New Year's edition of the story. I don't really celebrate New Year's much, so if anyone has any comments or suggestions, that would be really helpful. Again, thank you so much! Read, review, and enjoy!
Tony woke up to find himself with the worse hangover he has ever had. It felt like Thor had smashed it with Mjolnir about a thousand times. Gods it hurt! Not to self to never have nine eggnog mixtures (1/4 eggnog and 3/4 rum), especially that late at night. Tony pushed the covers off of himself to automatically be greeted by cold air, which slightly helped woke him up. But his head still hurt. Grudgingly, he got up and out of bed and shuffled into the bathroom to look through his medicine cabinet. A couple of pills, a cold shower, and spacing out for a few minutes later, Tony was ready to make the journey to the faraway place known as the kitchen to procure an important and necessary elixir known as coffee.
Tony trudged down the hall and into the kitchen. He went to the coffee machine to find it was already full. Thanking whatever deity that did this, he pulled out his favorite ACDC mug and poured himself a gracious amount of the bitter liquid. After taking a long sip, he turned around to see…Okay, it was probably his fault for not mentally adding the 'who is not Loki'. Sitting at the kitchen table was the God of Mischief, who was eating an omelet. "Where'd you get that?" Tony asked, now realizing how hungry he was.
Loki looked, smirked, and replied smartly, "Unlike some certain heroes I know, I am fully capable of cooking a meal for myself." Tony raised an eyebrow at that.
"Is that a challenge?" he asked. Loki tilted his head in response, his eyes glinting mischievously. "Alright Mr. 'I'm So Perfect Because I'm a God', I accept," Tony said, grinning, "I bet I can make the best omelet in the world. After all, I'm Tony Stark." Tony took one more long gulp from his mug before setting it down.
An hour later, Bruce grumpily entered the room, only to be greeted with a disastrous sight. Everything was a mess. The counter was littered with eggshell, egg, and scraps of meat and vegetables. The stove was smoking, something burning on the burner. The floor…well, it looked like something eggy exploded. Meanwhile, Tony, in the middle of the mess and covered with egg, proudly placed something on a plate on the island counter thing…whatever you call it (Bruce didn't care). The substance definitely did not look appetizing.
"There," Tony said, crossing his arms. Loki, who stood across from Tony and on the other side of the island thing (again, Bruce didn't care!), looked at it distastefully.
"What is that supposed to be?" Loki said, observing it from different angles.
"An omelet," Tony said, grinning madly.
"Really? Looks like cat food to me," Loki stated with disgust.
"No it doesn't!" Tony huffed.
"It also smells like cat food too," Loki said, pinching his nose.
"Don't be overdramatic! Just try it!" Tony said, shoving a fork into Loki's hand.
"I'm sorry, but I do not feel like getting food poisoning today, thank you very much," Loki responded, putting the fork down. Tony stabbed the thing with a fork and tried to shove it into Loki's mouth. That only caused the god to snatch the fork, bend it, and send it flying at the billionaire. Very soon, a food fight broke out. Quietly, Bruce backed away and left, deciding it would be best to go out to breakfast instead.
Later that day, after the breakfast fiasco, Loki found himself bored. As in really bored. At first, he was able to entertain himself by reading Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in his room, but within an hour he had finished it, and of course the Avengers did not think to give him the next book in the series. He could start the other books, but he was determined to read one series at a time. So, he then watched the movie interpretation for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. After almost two hours, he found himself once again as to not having anything to do. And it was only none for Odin's sakes! Sighing, Loki laid back on the couch, bored. That was when Thor entered. "Brother, are you okay?" Thor asked, seeing his brother just lounging in the living room.
"No, Thor, I am not. There is absolutely nothing to do around here. I feel as if my head is about to explode from dullness," Loki pouted.
"I'm probably going to regret this later, but why don't you prank someone?" Thor softly suggested. Thor watched as Loki mulled this over. Then, the most brilliant smile appeared on the younger god's face. It was full of happiness and mischief.
"A wonderful idea, brother. I must admit, it seems like sometimes you do understand me," Loki said excitedly, jumping off the couch and dashing into the hallway, towards his room to plan. Meanwhile, Thor started to run in the opposite direction, wanting to put as much distance between him and the prankster.
"Tony!" Clint yelled, banging on the door to the billionaire's lab.
"I'm coming, will you quit it Bird Brain before you break the door down?" Tony shouted back. The door opened to reveal an irritated Tony Stark, who was in the middle of updating his armor. "What do you want?" Tony asked.
In response, Clint immediately shoved a toy arrow in Tony's face. "You think it's funny, don't you? Listen, and listen well. You have two seconds to give me back my bow and arrows, or I swear to god I will kill you with this," Clint said, shaking the fake arrow threateningly. Suddenly, from behind, an angry Black Widow stormed in wearing…all pink. Tony had to stifle the laugh coming up. However, the situation was soon not funny at all when Natasha shoved Tony into the door frame, slightly lifting the man up.
"Give me back my clothes, or else!" she hissed, roughly releasing him and sending him back into the room. Soon enough, both Cap and Bruce joined the party, Cap's favorite shield being replaced with a plastic plate with a strap and Bruce's glasses being replaced with those gag ones with the springs. Everyone was yelling at Tony at once that they couldn't hear the slight giggles coming from something invisible from behind.
"Okay, wait, hold up, guys, hello? Guys? Yeah, uh, why do you think it's me?" Tony shouted over their screams. Unanimously, all of them held up a paper. Tony grabbed the one from Clint. Reading it, it said, with his hand-writing and signature, 'Hey Bird Brain, got you a new set of bows and arrows. Like them? –Tony Awesomesauce Stark'.
"Loki" was the only word that came out of Tony's mouth.
