I don't own Marvel or any partnership with them.

X. Aftermath and Shoe Shopping

Rhody came sliding down the banister the next day. Natasha, Clint, a shaking Lorna, Magneto and the rest of the Avengers and girls except Jane were eating breakfast. No one looked very happy.

"Gooooood mornin'!" Piped Rhody. "How y'all doin', man?"

No one answered. It was then Rhody noticed the dark circles under everyone's eyes. "Don't. Do. That. Again," hissed Tony coldly.

"Why?"

"You just scared the bajeebers out of all of us! What the hell!?"

Rhody shook his head. "Come on, man. It wasn't that bad. You guys all liked it, right? Clint? Bucky? Ultron? Natasha? Jarvis? Thor?"

"No!" Snapped Natasha, Clint, Ultron and Bucky.

"Nay!" Protested Thor.

"I liked it," said Jarvis. "Horror movies are great. Especially the older ones."

"Thank you Jarvis!"

Lorna suddenly burst into tears. Magneto glared at Rhody. "She was crying all night and you think that's funny?"

"I never said that," Rhody said defensively.

The Avengers and extras growled. "Get out of here!" Shouted Bucky. "Until you say you're sorry for what you did last night!"

"Man, come on! It's just a movie. Tony, back me up." Tony shook his head. Sighing Rhody suited up in his War Machine armor and left the tower.

He met up with Wolverine who was sitting on top of an apartment building. "Hey man," said Rhody.

"Hi." Rhody sat down next to Wolverine and neither said another word for ten minutes. Finally "What's wrong, Bub?" Rhody quickly explained. "Hah," said Wolverine. "I remember watching at the institute. I won the remote and it happened to be on. You should have seen our faces! We were a wreck afterwards. Even Charles Xavier was freaked out for the next few days. No one talked to me for an entire 48 hours. And I lost control of the remote for life. I have no idea why someone didn't flip the channel."

Rhody and Wolverine each took turns describing the reactions of their friends after the movie. "Honestly, I think the best one was either the three Maximoff children hiding behind their father or Clint and Natasha hugging each other so roughly they might as well pop," said Rhody.

Jane had left the tower so that she could have some normalcy for once. Not that Thor being a Demi-God was a bad thing. She just need to get away from the crazy Avengers. Plus the movie last night had scared the wits out of her.

She was browsing the mall and happened to pass a wedding store. Excited thoughts roused in her head. What if Thor proposed this Christmas? How exciting would that be?!

She immediately phoned Darcy to talk about it. Instead the answering machine picked up.

You are currently calling Darcy Lewis. I'm not here right now or I'm stuck in class and I can't talk to you OR I just want to ignore you. Leave a message! Bye bye! Hope your life is a fun one!

"I thought I told Darcy to change that!" Muttered Jane. Shrugging she put her phone away and continued window shopping.

After some time she abandoned her window shopping and entered a shoe store. There was Ms. Marvel, trying on some boots.

"Carol!" Cried Jane.

"Hi Jane!" Carol called back.

Jane strode over and sat next to Carol. "Shoe shopping?"

"Ruined my other boots going out to space. Why anyone doesn't make space proof boots is beyond me." Carol looked at Jane closer. "You look tired."

"It's been a long night?"

"Your boyfriend? I know, boys are hard to live with but they're great at the same time."

"Not my boyfriend but definitely a boy." Jane ranted about the movie. Carol gasped as she listened to the synopsis.

"That sounds terrible!" Wailed Carol. "I would never be able to watch a movie like that!"

"I can't believe I stayed for the entire movie! I could have been reading The Fault in Our Stars instead of being scared to death!"

Carol looked a little surprised. "I thought you just read science files."

"I have time for a little romance novels."

The girls laughed. Then Carol placed a pair of boots back in its box and placed all the but one of the boxes. "I'm going to check these out. Wanna go out to lunch after this?"

"Sure! Sounds like fun!"

Late that night the Avengers were slowly making their way to bed. Only Ultron got to stay up watching some TV show he liked. No one knew what it was and Ultron hacked part of Jarvis so he could see when someone was coming. Then he'd switch channels and turn the TV off. That way, no one could track where he had been.

Tony was the last one up. He was engulfed in his tech and didn't notice it was late until Jarvis told him.

"Sir it is nearly 23 hours. You should get some rest like the others."

"Jarvis, if the world is going to end tomorrow, I would have to stay up to invent something so the world won't end."

"But the world will not end tomorrow. You should get some rest before you brain deteriorates."

"That's some strong descriptive words, Jarvis ol' buddy."

"I beg your pardon, Mr. Stark, but I am not much older than you. In fact, I believe I am younger."

"Way to put a damper on my feelings, Jarvis."

"I am sorry, sir."

The robotic servant shut up. He wanted to alert Tony how late it was and that the Avengers were missing something but he thought better of it. Tony was back to his tech and couldn't care less about what was going on around him. So Jarvis went back to guarding the tower at the same time watching his master.

Twenty minutes later, Tony had fallen asleep on the floor. "Told ya. You should have gone to bed," said Jarvis quietly.

Tony let out a loud snort. He rolled over on his back. "Kitties…" he murmured before resuming his snoring.

I make the Avenger's days so short and I just realized I've been spelling Magneto wrong. It's Magneto, AnuhdahPerson! Not Magnito! Ok I'm done with that rant.

Jane's having girly dreams. Lol and Ms. Marvel was in this chapter.

Which makes me bring up another subject. Should I add the rest of the Avengers in this story? Like Black Panther, Ms. (Captain) Marvel, Wonder Man (don't know a whole lot about him), Silver Surfer. How about the Defenders (Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Daredevil)? Or people on the outside and not affiliated with the group (Deadpool, Jessica Jones, any X-men)? Review and let me know!

Also, suggest, review, comment whatever. Just tell me how I'm doing.
