Fear not my friends! Clintasha will most definitely come, for they are my favorite to write! I have huge plans for them, and already a story has been formalizing in my mind over this past week. I mean, what else am I supposed to do in school but daydream, right?

Now, I just saw Godzilla. I feel like its a Marvel movie in disguise. The main couple is the Maximoff twins in Age Of Ultron, and someone's codename was Hawkeye. I freaked out, but no one knew why.


Natasha turned to Tony and Pepper.

"It was Clint. I guess he needed a ride."

Tony rolled his eyes, then scanned the room. He hated the feeling of this room, but if the super spy said it was safe, then it would have to do.

It was filled with metal bars, crisscrossing throughout the room, forming a maze within the room. The bars reached from the floor up to the ceiling, leaving no room to climb out if you got cornered. It was sort of like a massive jungle gym, but for grownups. There were openings between the bars for someone to walk through, but that would enter you into the maze, and there was a good chance that you wouldn't get out without help.

Pepper too looked over the room. She squinted at the foreboding feel of the room, then turned to Tony.

"Why did you make this?"

Tony shrugged. "I let the construction workers have a few rooms to go crazy on. I guess that this is one of theirs."

Natasha walked confidently into the maze, running her hand along the bars as she walked, much like a little girl in a candy store. Tony shivered; Natasha officially creeped him out. She turned back to Pepper and Tony.

"We need to set up a base. Let's move in, and map out an exit, and an entrance. We need somewhere deep in the room, where we can hide, and stay safe."

Tony looked back into the room. You couldn't see the opposite wall, even with the night vision glasses on. He shook his head.

"There is no way that we're going to be able to remember where we came from or where we're supposed to go in there."

Natasha gave him a toothy grin. "That's why you have me."


Steve drained another coke, then grabbed another from his fridge. Steve raised an eyebrow at Bruce, but the scientist held up his still half-full glass. Steve nodded, then sat back down beside him.

"I wonder what the others are doing. I wonder if anyone has been taken out yet," said Bruce.

Steve crunched his face in concentration. "I bet JARVIS would announce if anyone had actually been eliminated. I wonder where you go once you're out."

"Mhh." Bruce pulled the coke bottle away from his mouth. "You go to the surveillance room where you watch it all play out. I asked JARVIS about it when I was back in that storage room."

Steve looked him over. "That's... kind of crazy."

Bruce snorted. "It's amusing. For Tony. Only he expects us all to go there and watch him win."

Steve pulled on a face of concentration again. "I wonder what he's doing." He gave a quiet laugh. "Imagine if he teamed up with Thor."

Bruce, though, wasn't paying attention. He set down his coke, stood up, then grabbed his gun. Steve looked at him, confused. Bruce gave him a meaningful glare.

"There is an awful lot of wondering going on. Let's stop wondering, and go get some answers."

He strode over to the elevator, then glanced back at Steve. Steve was watching him with a strange look, but then he stood up, and followed Bruce to the elevator. Once he was right by his side, Steve gave Bruce a military salute.

"Aye-aye, Captain."

Bruce rolled his eyes, then moved to hit the button for the elevator, but it was already headed for their floor. Steve and Bruce locked eyes, then flattened themselves against the wall on either side of the elevator doors.

A few seconds crawled by, and then light flooded the room. The doors opened up silently, and Bruce and Steve held their breath.

Nothing happened. No one walked out, but the doors just stayed open. Steve took a tentative step from the wall, then turned quickly, and aimed his gun at the elevator. Bruce watched Steve scan the open container, then put down his gun.

"It's empty."

Bruce stepped out, and sure enough, the elevator was empty.

"Probably Tony playing a prank."

Steve nodded, then held out an arm, allowing Bruce to walk in first. Bruce nodded, then walked into the elevator. Steve followed, and as soon as they were safe inside, the doors shut. Bruce leaned over and hit the button for the kitchen, but nothing happened. Bruce and Steve shared a concerned glance, but then the elevator kicked to life. It dropped quickly then slowed down, but passed the kitchen completely. Bruce hit the kitchen button again, but it seemed out of his control.

It stopped completely on a random floor. Neither Bruce nor Steve recalled ever setting foot into this room, but when the doors opened up, and they saw the metal bars and flashing lights, they knew that they were in the right place.

Once they entered the room full of their battling comrades, they weren't paying attention to anything behind them.

Clint, who had been controlling the elevator, slipped from the top of the elevator, smiled at the pair's retreating backs, before taking off into the maze.


Thor was still grumbling as the doors to the elevator opened up. He still didn't have his poptarts, and he was getting hungry. He stepped out, fuming, into the room, not thinking about where he was going. The elevator closed behind him, then rose back up into the tower. The lights were on. Thor didn't think much of it. He stepped deeper into the room, until he heard a voice.

"Hello, Thor."

Two figures were approaching on either side of him, but the one who spoke dropped from the ceiling. He turned back to the elevator, but it wouldn't get there in time. He was trapped.


Natasha weaved her way in and out of the bars, while Pepper and Tony tried their best to keep up with her. Pepper tried to keep track of the way they were going, but it was too difficult. Left, Right, Right, Middle, Left; She just couldn't keep up.

"Natasha? How are you keeping track?" Pepper voiced aloud.

Natasha smiled slyly over her shoulder. "I just do."

"What, is it like a photographic memory type thing?" asked Tony.

Natasha shrugged. "I'm not sure. I just... remember stuff."

For Tony, that wasn't a good enough answer.

"But how? Is there a scientific cause, or were you born that way? Do you remember everything you ever see? Can you remember your early childhood?"

At first Natasha had laughed, but when Tony asked about her childhood, she stopped, turned around, and wrapped her hand around his throat. Pepper gasped, and Tony began to struggle. Natasha's eyes narrowed dangerously and her lips thinned as she lifted Tony off of his feet.

"Never ask me about being a child again. Do you understand?"

She spoke with a thick Russian accent, and Tony flinched at her words.

"Okay," was all he was able to choke out.

Natasha dropped him, letting him fall to the ground. She stalked off, back to weaving in and out of the bars again. Pepper gave her a quizzical look, kicked Tony's coughing body, gave him the 'you shouldn't have done that' look, then fell in line behind Natasha. Tony joined them, grumbling, a few moments later.

After a few minutes, they reached a wall, where a large metal box was hanging. Natasha looked around, then nodded, muttering to herself. She seemed to be going over the directions on how to get back again.

Tony shook his head at her, then walked past her, slumping against the wall. Pepper sat down beside him, removing her glasses, then squinted into the darkness.

"Hey, Natasha? Do you think we could find a light switch? It's just that I think we'll be able to take people down easier if we can see farther."

Natasha turned her eyes onto Pepper, then looked up, scanning the walls. They fell upon the metal box. She strode forward, took the butt off her gun, and hit the lock on the box. Tony, who had been sitting directly underneath it, flinched, and yelped when her heard the gun hit. She sneered at him as the long clanged to the ground, and he uncurled himself to see what she had actually done.

Pepper leaned up and opened the box. Inside was a lot of different switches, with wires and other electrical equipment. She tried a few of the switches, and soon, there were flickering lights above them. Natasha and Tony pulled off their glasses, for now it was too bright to see.

Tony turned to examine the box, and Pepper stayed by his side, but Natasha turned, her face scrunched up in concentration. She stepped forward a few feet back into the maze, turning her head. Pepper and Tony were whispering behind her, and she held up her hand for silence. Pepper moved up next to her.

"What is it?"

Natasha took another step forward. "I think... I think someone is coming down."

Tony walked up. "I don't hear anything thing."

Natasha shushed him. She turned her head again, then a shadow passed over her face.

"Alright. The elevator is on the way down. Follow me."

Natasha grabbed her gun, and took off running. Pepper followed close behind, with Tony at her heels. They three twisted and turned around the bars, and within a few seconds, they were back at the elevator. Natasha turned to the panting Pepper and Tony.

"Okay. Pepper, take right, Tony, on the left. I'm going to come at them from the center. Be careful."

Pepper nodded, and Tony just turned on his heel and retreated to the corner. Natasha smiled, then looked up. Within a few seconds, she was hanging from the ceiling, ready to pounce.

Thor stepped in, and Natasha's grin grew larger. She loosened the grip on the bars, then slid smoothly to the ground, landing without a sound. Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw Tony and Pepper closing in.

"Hello, Thor."


Sorry I left off with a cliff hanger, but mother wants me to go to bed, but I hope to write more this weekend! Who do you all want to win this game of laser tag? I need to wrap it up because I have big. BIG. plans for Clintasha, and I want to get them out!

Your reviews are welcome! I cannot tell you how happy they make me!
