Ire opened his door that lead to his house. There in front of him stood none other than his mischievous friend, Loki. Loki's black, long hair was pulled back in a loose pony tail so it hung over his shoulder and out of his bright green eyes. Loki was dressed in casual "mortal" clothes. So basically a pair of blue jeans, a green t-shirt, black zip-up sweater, and black running shoes.

Ire a normal boy you would wonder how he met the god. Ire has short black hair, blue eyes with just a hint of green in them, and normal tan skin compared to Loki's pale skin. Ire was also dressed casually in a loose red t-shirt, a pair of dark blue almost black jeans, and a pair of white sox.

"Ok, what do you want this time, Loki?" Ire groaned as he snapped at Loki, who just woke him up before noon on a Saturday.

Loki smirked wide as a Cheshire cat which sent warning bells off in Ire's head that were dutifully ignored. Loki said ever so slyly "Today you and I are going to sneak into S.H.E.I.L.D. and leave the Avengers a present."

As Loki talked he pressed his fingertips together while he seemed to grin even wider. Ire ignored all conscious warning telling him to run. Instead he just turned around opening the door wider. In a tired voice stated "Alright come in before you scare the neighbors. If you just wanted someone to make you tea you should have just said so. The whole plot against the Avengers is not worth it. They don't play good cop, bad cop with you remember."

Loki pouted at the sudden anti-climactic way in which Ire blew his so well prepared plan to make people worry. In a huff he mumbled "You're no fun. The whole point of this was to make your neighbors there was trouble, call the Avengers hotline, so the Avengers would show up, I cast a spell so they are all wearing dresses force them to look like fools, then have tea with them. Now you went ahead and ruined my plan to have fun for today."

Loki actually looked like a kicked puppy that he always compared Thor to when scolded. Loki turned his back from the mortal in front of him, tears in the corner of his eyes. A soft sniffle filled the front foyer of Ire's house.

"Fine, Loki. Stop crying. I'll get them to come over. I'll give S.H.E.I.L.D. a tip of your where a bouts so they send the Avengers. All you need to do is pretend to be attacking and be ready for when they show up." Ire said his head sticking out the kitchen door from where he stood in the kitchen.

Ire set the orange, electric tea pot on its heating pad after filling it up. Then he flicked down the switch to turn on the tea pot. Ire turned to the house phone that hung on the other wall on the far side of the kitchen.

Ire sighed as he reached over pulling out tea bags from the draw just below the tea pot. He stared at the choices and decided on a black tea. After much delay and wish not to have made that promise to Loki stared one last time out the kitchen door.

Mumbling to himself, Ire made his way to the other side of the kitchen. Reaching out to the phone he picked it up. Then he paused. Turned so his back was against the wall realized he never bothered writing down S.H.E.I.L.D.'s number down.

"Loki do you know S.H.E.I.L.D.'s phone number?" called out Ire from where he stood.

Suddenly Loki cam running into the kitchen and stopping just barely in time not to hit Ire. Loki's face looked like it would break in two with just how wide his smile was. Then in a sly, innocent voice Loki said "Why Ire I do know more than just that. I could tell you every agents' phone number. I know how to call the avengers, every room, the whole ship, or all the computers. So which one do you want?"

"Just a phone number so S.H.E.I.L.D. will call the Avengers in." Ire replied irritated by Loki's response.

"Well I can pretend to hold you hostage and call Nick Fury. Being he is a man of no sympathy unless I manipulate the situation. So hand over the phone and prepare for the biggest acting job of your life." Loki stated holding out his hand waiting for the phone to be passed to him.

Ire eyed up Loki and his out stretched hand almost as if trying to decide if that was a wise choice. The moment seemed to last a long time. Ire raised an eyebrow before handing over the phone to the God of Lies. Only to regret it the moment Loki's hand closed around the handle of the phone.

Loki then advised "I would stop the water boiling and prepare to act like a captive in pain."

So Ire did just that well after the water finished boiling. As the novice actor he was prepared to act his role. All the while, swearing in his head over his own stupidity. That he gave into Loki and his demands. Then he patiently waited to hear the line pick up on the other end of his phone.

"Ring, ring, ring…" went the other end of the phone. Loki getting irritated started to drum his long fingers on the curved back of the phone with a resounding "Tap, tap, tappadi-tap…"

Finally after several minutes of nothingness a voice picked up the phone and growled out "Nick Fury."

"Hello Nicky guess who is in town? That is right me, Loki. I know you are already tracing this call. But I wouldn't send in S.H.E.I.L.D. agents unless you want my captive dead." Loki said cruelly. Then he gave Ire a ruff jab in the ribs with his elbow causing Ire to give a breathless scream.

"A growl could be heard on the other end of the phone. Nick Fury's voice finally growled out "You won't just get away with this. This time you will not hurt another person." Then there was an audible click on the phone followed by awn awn awn sound that usually follows the end of a call or a dialing of a wrong number.

"He hung up on me." Loki said in an astonished voice. "He hung up on Me! I can't believe it. No one has ever hung up on me before. What the hell? I hope he sends not just the Avengers but comes himself."

"Yep it appears that you were hung up on. So shall we prepare for their arrival? I'll make the tea but who is going to keep an eye out?" Ire said as he moved toward a regular, plain, white with blue and red flower, extremely big tea pot. Ire reached down pouring the orange electric tea pot's water into the bigger tea pot.

"I'll keep an eye out for the Avenger. On the condition we have that blue flower tea. I love that type of tea." Loki pleaded with big puppy dog eyes that would melt almost anybodies' heart.

"Fine I'll make it. But just know any mess that comes from this you are cleaning up. The Avengers though may not stay for the tea, how will you make them stay for it?" Ire asked as he gave in and made the white tea Loki asked for. Then he was walking through the kitchen door to the adjoined formal dining room. There he placed out the big floral tea pot in the center of a never used, long, brown table. Then he sat out a teacup for each member of the Avengers, Thor, Captain America, Black Widow, the Hulk, Iron man, Hawkeye, and Spiderman. Also setting out a cup for Loki, himself, and the possible Nick Fury.

Loki trailing behind him as Ire moved about, adjusting the teacups and moving them around as he pleased. After a few minutes of quiet thoughts Loki finally spoke up "I know a spell that will bind them to the house until we decide to release them. We can't force them to drink the tea but they will do it if they just want to get it over with and leave. It will be fun though we will have to watch out for their weapons."
