Chapter Text

Rocket began to stretch before saying," I hope they don't get mad if one or two of them loses."

Natasha hearing this replied, "Your pretty confident of your fighting ability."

Rocket asked," Did you train Ironman in hand to hand."

Natasha smiled before answering," I will tell you that after the sparring session is over." Seeing tony coming out with his gym clothes on.

Rocket walked to the center of the area before saying," Hurry up old man."

Tony replied," Hope your not a sore loser."

Rocket smirked before saying, "Naw, I am a sore winner." and got into a fighting stance.

Tony crotched before replying," Whenever your ready little rat."

Rocket turned to Bruce before asking," What is the sound for the fight to start." Keeping an eye on Tony from the corner of his eye.

Bruce answered, "Whenever you two decides to start."

Tony slowly approached Rocket making sure not to make any noise before he reached for Rocket.

Rocket smiled before twirling and with his two hands clenched together connected to Tony Stark chin.

Tony was out cold before he hit the mat.

Rocket looked down at Tony before saying, "Just because I was not facing you does not mean I was not watching you."

Natasha knelt down by Tony before saying, "Steve, Clint. Tony is out cold. Would you take him to the side."

Rocket asked, "So do I pick who I fight next or do you guys pick someone?"

Natasha answered," You get to pick your next opponent" before adding, "By the way nice punch."

Rocket smiled before replying," Okay, than I chose the Asgardian, I think he goes by Thor."

Thor looked up in surprise before asking," Are you serious that you want to fight me little man."

Rocket glared before answering, " It does not matter about size but the fight inside someone."

Thor laughed before saying," I will give you two free punches." Before placing Mjolnir down by the avenger's side before stepping into the ring.

Rocket smiled, Thor was not in his usual get up but in gym clothes like Tony Stark was wearing.

Rocket raced towards Thor and jumped hitting Thor on his chest with his left foot. His right foot quickly untying the string. Rocket fell to the ground and quickly avoided Thor's hand before ducking behind Thor.

Thor turned and grabbed at Rocket but missed him by barely an inch.

Rocket quickly began to move around the room before making another run towards THor. But at the last second went to Thor's left and got behind him before yanking the gym pants down and running away.

Thor feeling his pants being tug down quickly pulled them up and glared at Rocket.

Rocket turned and seeing THor pulling up his pant before saying," I see London, I see France, I see Thor decided to go commando."

Thor growled at Rocket before replying," You will pay dearly for that ."

Rocket and Thor slowly began to circle each other, once Rocket was standing in front of Mjolnir before saying, " I heard most Asgardians are considered great lovers. But how do you do that when your stick is not even half as big as mine."

Thor had enough and charged Rocket.

Rocket quickly moved out of the way before asking," What is one and half , or is closer to two inches."

Thor seeing Mjolnir was right in front of him, quickly grabbed it and threw it at Rocket.

Rocket realized this is what he wanted before ducking under the hammer and saying," Hey I thought no weapons were allowed."

Bruce put a hand on Thor before saying," Go rest."

Natasha said," Okay, your playing dirty pool with the boys. Let see how well you do when it comes to the ladies."

Rocket replied," I thought I got to choose who I get to fight next."

Natasha smiled before saying," You got to choose your next opponent, now it is our turn and you will be facing me."

Rocket replied," I was going to go for the smaller male next."

Natasha said," You got me, if you can get pass me, you can have Clint next."

Rocket could tell by the way Natasha moved, she was a very skill fighter. But he knew her teammates would do anything to protect her or defend her if they thought she was insulted in any way.

Natasha asked," Your smart and the way you moved showed you have some training."

Rocket answered," Was a bounty hunter before, Will probably become a bounty hunter again when this is all over." As they continue to encircle each other.

Clint yelled," Take him down Natasha."

Gamora yelled, " Your doing excellent so far, Rocket."

Natasha moved closer to Rocket before saying, " I guess you spar with Gamora."

Rocket smiled before saying," You smell very nice."

Natasha replied," Your not going to bait me like you did Thor."

Rocket smirked before saying, " Know your opponent and know their weakness."

Natasha replied," If his hammer had hit you, it would have done some major damage to you."

Rocket smiled before saying," Why the no weapons rule was put in effect."

Natasha knew Rocket was watching her center of gravity. So she did a quick drop and kick, catching Rocket in his stomach.

Rocket fell between Natasha legs but before she could bring her leg down to knock the breath out of him he rolled away and stood up.

Natasha stood and knew Rocket would be ready for another blow like that, so she would try a different attack the next time they were close.

Rocket realizing he was standing in front of the rest of the avengers before saying, " Hey Peter, you are right it does smell like fish. Does it taste like it to."

Natasha could not believe what Rocket said and pulled herself upright and started toward Rocket in a slow walk.

Peter replied," Rocket behave yourself."

Rocket smirked before saying," Oh you mean it does not smell when it is kept cle-"

Steve had enough and grabbed the back of Rocket shirt and lift him off the ground before saying," You do not talk about woman in such a matter."

Bruce sighed before saying," Steve put him down, Natasha will take care of him for what he said,"

Steve dropped Rocket before saying," When we spar I will not go easy on you."

Rocket smirked before replying," Unfortunately he and Natasha are both disqualified."

Bruce shook his head before saying," Guess your going have to hurt him later, Natasha."

Rocket smirked before replying," She knows I was saying it to get one of her two teammates to react. So I guess that leave Clint and me to face off."

Clint said," For insulting Natasha, I am not going easy on you."

Natasha put a hand on Clint's shoulder before replying," Remember what I taught you, Don't let anger cloud your judgment."

Clint nodded before saying," Your going down."

Rocket smirked before replying," Unless you get disqualified too." and going to the center of the gym.

Clint wished he more lesson with Natasha before realizing, will Rocket had to reach upward to hit someone. They had to bend over to hit him. Made a big difference on what type of punches he could throw.

Rocket was ready for this match, he even thought 'should I lose, I am sure Gamora, Drax or Groot will win' and began to circle Clint.

Clint seen that Rocket knew how to fight. So he would wait until Rocket made the first move.

Rocket seeing Clint was waiting for him to make a move, feinted left.

Clint jerked to follow Rocket's move before he realize Rocket was playing with him.

After five minutes of feinting, Clint stopped jerking at Rocket feints. Rocket knew he should try it now. He went left and since Clint did not jerk to his right to block Rocket. Rocket quickly hit the back of the knees with a karate chop. One Clint start to gall, Rocket grabbed one arm and twisted it up behind Clint back before saying," Submit."

Clint try to free his arm but could not before replying," Not submitting." and attempting to grab Rocket.

Natasha watching and seeing that Clint was struggling to get out of the hole, walked over to Rocket and touched him before saying, "Bruce, I have interfere in Clint's match. SO he and I both forfeit."

Rocket released his hold on Clint before asking," Why did you do that?"

Natasha answered," Clint is too proud to surrender and I could see he was not getting out of that hold. At least without breaking our agreement about injuring someone."

Rocket nodded before saying," With all the rules made it hard to really hard to spar in fairness."

Natasha helped Clint up before walking over to the Avenger side.

Rocket seeing the guardians coming was ready for some praise.

Peter knelt down to Rocket before saying," We are going to have a talk about what you did here, Mister. But first I have to apologize to the avengers for your behavior."

Rocket watched as Peter walked away before turning to Gamora and Drax and asking," What is wrong with winning?"

Drax answered," You made the earth team look incompetent and did not fight fair."

Rocket replied," Do you think Thanos will fight fair?"

Gamora answered," But you did not give us a chance to spar with any of them."

Rocket sighed before saying," If Peter wants to talk to me I will be in my temporary room." and start to walk away.

Groot looked at Drax and Gamora before following after Rocket
