A/N: Hey guys! Sorry I haven't updated, i've been on vacation in Canada and they have no cell reception where we were! Or internet connection. Stupid verizon iphone -_- anyway, enjoy!
After ten minutes or so, the group was in one of the training rooms, wearing tight fitting vests and gloves.
"So...how does paintball play a role in this?" Natasha asked, pulling un comfortably at her black vest.
"Ask Betty. It was her idea." Brook said, smiling at her older cousin, who wore a similar green vest over her white blouse and black leggings.
"The point of paintball is to build a bond with your team. So that all of you can trust that while out in the field, your team mates won't shoot you, or beat you to a pulp, be it by accident or on purpose because they're pissed at you, and will have your back regardless. Understand?" She asked, looking at everyone with her bright green eyes.
"Yeah Stark!" Maria snapped, glaring at Tony, who sighed.
"Okay, seriously? We're still on that? I shot you with my suit once, and in my defense, it back fired and I didn't see you there!" He said defensively, giving her a pointed look.
"No, actually, you shot at Maria three times by "accident", you just missed the other two times." Steve said, putting air quotes around accident.
"Yeah, I could barely move for over a week! I was sleeping on the couch basically, god forbid you had killed me_" She started, taking a threatening step towards him, only for Brook to clear her throat and interrupt their argument.
"Anyway, the rules are, if someone hits you anywhere except the head, you're out. Understand?" She asked.
Thor raised his hand.
"What is this paint of ball? We do not have it in Asgard." He asked, Steve looked equally confused.
"Well point break, and Capsicle, you have fake guns with little balls of paint, hence the term, 'Paintball' you shoot them at other people in games or at targets, because getting hit with them unless you're wearing the correct gear hurts. Especially if you get hit in the groin." Tony said, cringing at the last part.
"And you know that because...?" Bruce asked, raising an eye brow at the billionaire.
"Angry ex-girlfriend, it's a long story."
Brook sighed and cleared her throat.
"Any more questions?"
"Can I sit this one out? I don't want 'The Other Guy' to get involved." Bruce explained, rubbing the back of his head nervously.
"Bruce, this is a good activity for you then. You just have to trust yourself not to get too angry." Betty explained.
"I'm always angry."
Betty sighed.
"Please? For me? I have faith in you! You'd never hurt any of us on purpose, neither would the other guy!" She begged, grabbing his hands in her own.
Bruce sighed.
"I guess..."
Brook smiled at her cousin giving a small nod.
"Alright, teams! Maria and Tony are team leaders.." She started, looking over at Coulson, who sat on the bench behind her, nodding in approval.
"Okay, on Maria's team are; Natasha, who will be the other team leader, Clint, and Steve. On Tony's team are; Bruce, who is the other leader, Betty, and Thor. Questions?" She asked, handing the green guns and orange balls of paint to Tony and Bruce's team, while Maria and Natasha's team got the black paint ball guns and red balls of paint.
"Uhm...why aren't you playing?" Betty asked, her green eyes boring into her cousins pitch black ones.
"I'd like to, but then the teams will be un even and that would be an unfair disadvantage to the other team." She explained, crossing her arms in front of her.
"I'll play too, that way the teams are even." Coulson said, coming up behind the therapist as he handed a vest to her. Brook sighed and put on the vest and gloves that came with it, joining Tony's team, while Coulson joined Maria's team.
Maria set her sights on Tony's team and smirked at them, making everyone cringe.
This was going to be fun.
