Edited : Hey Everybody!
So after almost 3 years I got some free time and I thought I should definitely get back to this story! It was so much fun at the time I was writing it and so I thought perhaps it's time to do a little bit of revising and finally finish it!
So here it is!
Have fun
Episode 1: Party Crasher...S?
When Pepper decided to invite the Avengers for the Christmas holidays, Tony refused immediately. Why? well, he thought after a long tiring year it was, at last, he and Pepper could spend some private moments together. Of course, Pepper told him she was only having twelve percents of the moments and besides it was fun to have their new friends company for the holidays. Tony insisted it wasn't a good idea not even the slightest because every time the Avengers get together something goes very wrong. And besides, it was enough to tolerate their faces, especially one-eye Fury, as Tony liked to put it, all the year.
"But I thought you liked parties?" Pepper said as she walked around, tapping on her tablet and doing all her God-Knows-What. All Tony knew she was always working, even he didn't work that much when he was the head of the Stark Company. duh!
"Pepper,Pepper,Pepper, will you please sit down for a second? " Tony said, following Pepper around the tower, looking like exactly like a spoiled brat.
"No, Tony! They're coming; I've already sent the invitations. End of the discussion!" Pepper put her hand on her waist as she cracked a smile and gone into the elevator to go get ready for the so-called party, leaving Tony behind with completely hurt feelings.
Yeah… Tony loved parties but not with The Avengers… well of course… Agent Romanoff somehow stood out. Tony's guilty pleasure.
In the end… Pepper won and The Avengers crashed into the Stark tower. Facepalm, was the genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist's first impression.
And now all of them, well except for director Fury who surprisingly didn't show up, lounged around Stark Tower, enjoying their Champagne and chatting each other.
"Ma'am, " Captain Steven Rogers said politely, looking directly at the smiling Pepper. "Thanks for your invitation; it is really an honor… "Holding his glass. " To the peace, " He looked around at the others, "To the Avengers. "
"Thank you Steve. " Pepper said kindly. " Cheers… "She held her glass along with the others.
"Steve? How is he Steve, now? "Tony whispered in Pepper's ear, smiling forcefully.
"C'mon Tony, have a bit of fun. " She smiled and tapped on Tony's arm, childishly. "J.A.R.V.I.S? " she exclaimed.
"Yes, Miss Potts?"
"Play us something to dance with. "
"Of course Ma'am." And then the loud 80's music started to fill the whole room, which made everybody, and by everybody I mean even the heavily drunk Bruce Banner, got up on their feet.
After a while some romantic music started to play by Tony's order to J.A.R.V.I.S to at least he and Miss Potts could have their moment back, the couples started to slow dance. Pepper and Tony, Thor and Jane even Clint and Natasha were dancing, while Agent Maria Hill eyed Steve Rogers up and down, made him sweat all over the couch out of nervousness, Bruce also had another drink when suddenly…
BOOM!
Not only it seemed like something or perhaps someone crashed through the walls, the lights went out and the music stopped.
"Stark! What the hell is going on here?!" Natasha almost shouted while pulling out her pistols out of nowhere. Clint picked up his bow from under the couch, Steve put up his shield, Agent Hill got her pistol ready and Thor called out for his Mjolnir which of course crashed through the glass window to reach him and Bruce… well, he might've long fainted because the amount of alcohol he'd consumed.
"Stark, wanna explain the situation, here?" Steve claimed bitingly which made Tony wince.
"J.A.R.V.I.S!" He yelled.
"Sir, I'm afraid someone broke the security system. " J.A.R.V.I.S's announcement made everyone jolt up up in their position although it was too dark to see anything at all.
"Light up the emergencies. " Tony ordered. "J.A.R.V.I.S, right now-" He was cut off by a sudden dark but familiar voice.
"The… Avengers "Everyone narrowed their eyes."… look how far you've ...Argh!"
another BOOM!
And then the emergency lights came on. All of the Avengers looked shocked, stunned, froze and their mouth hanging open in an O form.
"Isn't that…? " Natasha was the first one to spoke followed by Clint's widened and then narrowed eyes.
There, before them, besides the green huge raged monster, who had a proud but extremely ugly grin on his face, on a hill of destroyed walls and broken furniture lay a man, oh well… god that all the Avengers knew too well.
"Let me kill him already. " Clint sprinted, only to be stopped by Natasha's firm arm.
"Brother?!" Thor blinked a few times, not believing his eyes. " I thought you were…" He went off.
"Yes… I missed you too. " Loki rubbed his back as he tried to get on his feet. " Actually I… "
"Loki, my love I told you, such boast won't be necessary. " The feminine delicate voice washed the color out of everybody's face, making everyone speechless.
"My love …? " Jane and Pepper muttered while Natasha folded her arms and Maria Hill raised an eyebrow.
"I am afraid you have to come down here, your wife needs your help." The voice echoed again.
"WIFE?! " Now all the four women screamed in the union, making the men jump.
