The Asgardians Must be Crazy
"Let me get this straight: You think the Asgardians have placed a humungous treasure hidden somewhere in the Helicarrier?" Maria asked in amazement
"Quite likely. Loki and I were very fond of searching for buried treasure back on Asgard." Thor reminisced, with a far-off look on his face
"So where did they hide it?" Maria asked curiously
"If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise." Thor answered slyly as Maria burst out laughing in amusement
"Hey, uh Thor, um, can you do me a favor?" Banner asked, having entered the bridge with Stark and Black Widow
"What's the task?" Thor asked curiously as Banner explained
"Sif has apparently came down with insomnia…again. Third time in a row this week." Stark answered for Banner as Thor and Maria observed
"Hmmm…as I recall, Frigga had a special cure for insomnia. All you have to do is sprinkle mistletoe and water over the insomniac, and wait for several seconds, then the insomnia will wear off, and the victim shall regain control of slumber." Thor concluded his statement as Maria and Stark ransacked the drawers for the ingredients required
"Where's the mistletoe? I had it right here when Pepper visited last week!" Stark ranted, scrambling like crazy
"A-ha! Found it!" Cap said, racing in with mistletoe and a flask of water, with his trademark goofy, proud look on his face
"Where the heck did you get it so quickly?" Maria asked
"Well…" Cap started before Bucky's hollering echoed through the cabins
"WHO RANSACKED MY MOBILE GARDEN?! STEEEVE!" Bucky screamed, charging at the group, foaming at the mouth wildly, laughing like a madman
"Oh hang on! Forgot I had this out!" Hawkeye gasped, removing his bow as Bucky stumbled and toppled over Maria and Thor
"Oof. I fell on my keys." Maria grunted before heaving an incoherent Bucky off her stomach before helping Thor up, all before something shiny caught her eye
"What? You see something?" Cap asked curiously before Maria grabbed it and to everyone's surprise-in her hand was a rare piece of Asgard gold
"The treasure! You finally uncovered it!" Sif gasped, astonished by how quickly the discovery transpired
"There's more here! Rubies, diamonds, emeralds, gems, ooh-even some crystals!" Hawkeye blubbered in joy as he and several SHIELD agents helped uncover the loot
"The mother lode!" Stark boasted, arms spread out for emphasis
"Ugh…little white prancing bunnies…" Maria mumbled before collapsing again on Stark this time
"Ok! Who's the wise guy that got Hill with the sleep dart?!" Cap barked as several SHIELD agents tried to keep a straight face
"Ugh…not *again*." Thor grumbled as he and Banner dragged Maria to the exam room yet again
Later…
"Well this is boring." Hawkeye noted
"Yeah, if only something crazy were to happen. I *said* if only…" Hawkeye rambled before Fury announced "Cut!"
