Chapter 2: A Touch of Comedy

Figuring it best to avoid the hysterics that would ensure if she should walk in the door with Captain America, Serenity decided it would be best to just teleport them directly into the office of one Tony Stark.

When they stepped through, Steve turned surprised eyes on his companion. "How did you change?"

Serenity, who was now wearing black dress pants and a sky blue off-the-shoulder camisole, smiled mysteriously. "Magic, of course." She pretended to not noticed that his eyes drank in her bare neck and shoulders.

"Well, well, well," Came a male voice that echoed from across the large room. "If it isn't my buddy Captain America. What's up, Rogers?"

Serenity turned her attention to the dark-haired male that walked towards them with a glass of scotch in his right hand. "The reconstructions looks good," Steve told the male in question. "Fury said you were expecting us."

"Always the perfect soldier." Iron Man answered. "That can wait; first, is this divine specimen of the female species actually the Sailor Cosmos? Your file was so top secret it took JARVIS a good hour to crack into. I am disappointed you did not show up in your Sailor outfit," he told her as he took a sip of his drink.

Steve's muscles twitched as his hands clenched. Why did it bother him so much that Stark was flirting with her? He flirted with every female in sight, though since he and Pepper became official he has been better. Still, he knew that Stark could not resist Serenity. It was taking all his willpower to not flirt with her, either!

"I feel it is only fair to warn you that I did inform Fury that if you should hit on me, I will hit you back." Serenity's voice was innocent, as was the smile on her face. However, her eyes blazed with a warning. "I assure you that you won't like it."

Stark looked her up and down, and gave a single nod. "Fair enough, you're a kitty with claws. Tony Stark, nice to meet you. So," he said as he waved his glass in a circle, "I assume you are here for the gizmo Fury wanted you to take to our hammer-happy friend."

"Please and thank you." Serenity beamed brightly.

"It's right over here," He told her, turning his back on them as he walked over to a cluttered work station. "JARVIS, is it wrapped up all nice with a petty bow on top?"

Serenity startled slightly as a slightly mechanical voice came from all around her. "Yes, sir. It's all ready to go."

"Such a good assistant." Tony smirked as he picked it up. "Here it is, ready to go. Though, I think you would want to know," Stark's sent a meaningful glance to Rogers, "that Fury wanted me to add a scanning device to it. For some reason he didn't think I'd be smart enough to know what it was. I think he wants more information on our godly friend and his world."

Captain America's eyes narrowed. "Really." He stated more than asked. "Did you add that little feature, or choose to ignore Fury's directions?"

A beeping noise caught their attention, and both heroes turned their gazes to look at the silver-haired woman between them. A blue visor had appeared over her eyes, and a portable laptop with the plantery symbol for Mercury was in her hand. "Interesting," Serenity stated as she scanned the device.

"What's this?" Tony looked over her shoulder. "What language is that?"

"It was originally programmed for Mercurian, but now it is in Lunarian." Serenity informed him as the results were projected both on the screen while different ones flashed across her visor. "Not bad - this will indeed work in Asgard."

"JARVIS?" Tony asked.

"Her equipment is un-scan able, sir." The robotic voice replied.

"Really now?" His tone was very intrigued.

"Did you add the device Fury wanted you to?" Steve asked, not at all interested in the advanced technology. It was just too much for him.

"What am I, an idiot? Of course I didn't do what Fury wanted me to! Come on, Rogers, I have a bad boy reputation to uphold." The billionaire replied.

"Good, because I would have disabled it anyway." Serenity informed him as the computer and the visor disappeared. "Fury is testing my patience."

"Join the club." Tony and Steve stated at the same time.

"So tell me, Princess," Tony carried on and ignoring the glare that the small woman sent him. "Is the file Fury has on your accurate?"

"I've never seen it, so I wouldn't be able to tell you." She answered.

"Well it just so happens that JARVIS and I have it right here." He said as he moved to the center of the room where the island that projected the computer screen just like on The Bus was located. "JARVIS, would you be a dear?"

"Yes, sir." The reply answered as the file opened up above the screen on the desk top.

Serenity stepped forward. "You said you hacked S.H.I.E.L.D.'s file?" Serenity asked.

"I sure did." He answered while he downed the last of his scotch. "It's child play, really. You know, despite how many firewalls they build to keep me out, JARVIS just keeps knocking them down with a sledge hammer."

"Thank you, sir." JARVIS' response came out. The Moon Queen smirked; if she didn't know better, she would say that the computer system was embarrassed at his actions.

"You're very welcome." Tony smiled.

"You're just as insane as ever." Steve mumbled.

"You know, I think that's the nicest thing anyone's said to me." Tony told the blonde male.

Blue eyes turned toward Iron Man, a wicked glint in her eye. "Can we edit it?" She asked.

He shrugged. "Sure."

"I'll let you take a look at the Mercurian computer, if you tweak some information in that file for me."

Tony Stark studied her for a few moments, before a big smile stretched his lips. "I like you. You're my new best friend. JARVIS!" Tony asked the little computer in question appeared in Serenity's hands and she offered it to him.

"Yes, sir."

"Do whatever this little angel wants."

"Yes, sir."

"Thank you," Serenity smiled brightly at Tony, before looking at the projection of her file. "JARVIS, would you do me a favor?"

"Of course, madam."

"First, only call me Serenity. Second, delete anything in the file that refers to me as Queen." She told him. "If one more person calls me your highness, I don't know what I'm going to do."

"Editing has been completed. Anything else?" JARVIS answered.

"No, you have been a dear. Thank you." She told him.

"Can I still call you princess?" Tony asked, his eyes examining the blue laptop in his hands.

"No." Serenity answered.

Steve picked up the communicator, and held it in his hands. "Thanks, Tony." He said.

"Don't mention it." Tony added. "Will you be coming to dinner Saturday?"

"Saturday?" Steve asked in confusion.

"Pepper's birthday. Just the Avengers." Tony added. "You can bring a Serenity as a date." He added before turning to look at the silver haired woman. "You're an honorary Avenger. Oh, and since Cosmos here can transport anywhere, tell Thor to come, too."

Both Serenity and Steve blushed brightly at his matchmaking skills. "Tony!" Steve snapped.

"What? Oh, come on, Cap! Have you ever had a date in your life?" Tony asked him.

Steve clenched his jaw. "Tony," he warned.

The billionaire waved a hand in the air. "Fine, then be a gentleman and escort the fair maiden. Now both of you get going so I can play with my new toy."

Serenity was still blushing. "I'll just get it from you Saturday, then." She whispered. In a flash of silver light, Sailor Cosmos stood before them once more with her staff in hand.

A whistle of appreciation filled the large room that was the top of Stark Tower. "You should probably wear something a little more formal than that to dinner, dear," Tony stated after he looked up to find the source of the light show. "Though I wouldn't complain."

"Goodbye, Tony," Steve half growled as Cosmos opened up a portal and they both stepped inside.

Tony watched the portal close behind them. "JARVIS?"

"Yes, sir."

"I give it one week before Captain Code of Honor loses his virginity."

"I'll make a note of it, sir."
