Jan flew through the hall, after an uneventful conversation with Hank, involving a lecture on atoms and what not, there was practically nothing more to do.
A door to her right was left ajar. More specifically, the door to Tony's lab.
Curious, Jan entered the room. There was Tony, hunched over a table and tinkering with a small machine.
Not again, Wasp thought as she watched the scientist, seriously I just go from one lab to another. At least Tony makes more interesting things then Hank. Tony makes weapons!
"So, watcha got there Tony?" Jan asked growing to her full size and peering over his shoulder.
Ironman glanced up at her with no trace of emotion on his face.
"Uh.. Tony?" Wasp said frowning at his lack of response.
Standing up abruptly, Stark grabbed Janet's arm, keeping ahold of it for a few seconds.
"Hey! Stop that-" Wasp said struggling to pull her arm away from him.
You belong to me now, Janet Van Dye
Almost as sudden as Tony had grabbed her arm, Wasp stopped struggling and he let go. Turning from him robotically, she walked out of the room and he want back to work. Leaving no sign that anything out of the ordinary had happened.
"Why again, are we having lunch with the people who insulted us?" Shadow Cat asked, reluctantly following behind Bobby as they walked through the gates of the Avenger Mansion.
"Because, Kitty. They offered it to us and it could boost the status of mutants if we accept." Bobby replied with an eye roll, his voice in a mock attempt of Scott's.
"Hey you should be thankful! We save your ass and help your team mate and this is what we get?" Hawkeye called from the front.
"Yes. I'm sure it was so much work for you to wake up and find that you have a woman in the kitchen." Emma mocked with a sneer.
"Sure was, Blondie." The Hulk snapped at her with a glare.
"Please do not start trouble. I am very grateful for your teams help." Ororo said acting as a moderator between the two teams.
"No promises." Kitty said with a humph.
Ignoring the teens comment, Hawkeye pulled open the heavy door of the mansion, and entered. Not bothering to wait for his guests.
"Jarvis, where the heck is Tony? I don't want to play tour guide to them." Hawkeye asked the mansion.
"Master Stark is waiting for everyone in the dining room Mr. Barton." A robotic yet human voice replied.
With a sigh, Clint replied "Thanks." before leading everyone down the hall to a large room.
The dining room was magnificent, high ceilings, a long oak table with chairs and beautifully lit fire place on one of the walls. At the oak table sat six people each occupying one of the fifteen set places.
"Welcome!" Tony said, getting up from his seat at the head of the table "I'm glad you could make it!"
"No problem." Cyclops replied taking Tony's offered hand and giving it a firm shake. "We wouldn't skip an invite to the Avengers Mansion."
"Have a seat." Tony said, waving a hand at the empty plates, both Hawkeye and Hulk had already plopped themselves into the seats. The Xmen all took one of the empty plates, some a bit more hesitantly then others. There had been a pattern, it seemed, with the table setting; each Avenger had an empty seat to the right and left of him.
