?Clint's POV:

I had just come back from a mission in Italy. For safety reasons I wasn't allowed to bring my phone, so of course, the first thing I did when I got back to the tower was rush up to my room and check my phone.

"Holy ham sandwich!" I yelled.

I had over 100 missed texts from my group chat with Tony, Joker Blowtorch, and CGB. The chat was renamed to 'Weird nicknames chat' too, and there was also another person added to it.

"I was only gone two days!" I exclaimed.

*:・゚✧ ~⭐️~✧゚・: *

You

What'd I miss?

Joker Blowtorch

Do I sense a Hamilton reference?

You

Well yes, but I also wanna know what I missed

Who the heck is sTeEb?

sTeEb

my real name is Steve, you know me Clint

You

Oh!

Hey Steve!

sTeEb

Hello

CGB

If you really wanna know what you missed Archery Pigeon you should go read through the previous texts

You

Hey CGB!

Great idea!

Gimme five minutes!

(/◕ਉ◕)/ Five minutes later

I see you couldn't get them to tell you their location either

sTeEb

nope

but we got close to something

Joker Blowtorch

this close ?

but this far ? ゚フフ

Metal Man

Why are you people always on your phones?

Do you even have a life?

You

Do you have a life

Metal Man

I will have you know I have a very important life, and an important job, that requires me not to be on my phone 24/7

You

Well I just got back from Italy so I'm taking a break

CGB

Did you say Italy?!

You

Yep

CGB

As in ? ゚ヌᄍ

You

Yep

CGB

I love Italy!

Joker Blowtorch

That's cause you were born in Italy dumbo

Of course, you love it

sTeEb

You were born in Italy?

CGB

Yeah

You

Cool!

Metal Man

Okay, I have a meeting now, so I'm muting you all

You

Like you even go to those meetings anyways

'Metal Man' has muted this chat

You

? He's so dramatic

CGB

Like my uncle

Joker Blowtorch

*Cue dramatic thunder in the background*

sTeEb

What?

CGB

Ignore him

Joker Blowtorch

What?

Do not ignore me!

Never ignore me!

I am the Supreme Commander of the Argo II and I refuse to be ignored!

You

Isn't the Argo that ship that Jason sailed on in that old Greek Myth thingy?

CGB

My father is not going to appreciate that

You

Oh, is your father one of those nerd geeks obsessed with mythology?

Joker Blowtorch

BAHAHAHAHAHA

CGB

Why are you wheezing on the floor?

Joker Blowtorch

I'm just imagining your dad as a geek and-

Omgs, I can't-

CGB

Pffft-

sTeEb

What's so funny?

Did I miss something?

Joker Blowtorch

No, it's just Nico's dad is scary

like super scary

like 'If-you-treat-my-son-wrong-I-will-kill-you-with-a-pair-of-chopsticks-and-hide-your-dead-body-in-a-violin-case' scary

You

. . .

I think CGB's dad would like my boss

Joker Blowtorch

OOOH!

Who's your boss?

You

That's classified

Joker Blowtorch

OOOH!

Am I texting a spyyyyyyy?

You

No

Joker Blowtorch

Don't worry, your secret is safe with me

I won't say a peep

Not even if someone temps me with peeps

Man, I love those marshmallow chicken things!

But they also have bunnies

I like the chicken ones though

I just think they're cuter

But if given the choice of no peep, or a bunny peep, I'd definitely choose a bunny peep

it would be a sad day if I turned down a peep

when you say peep a lot it doesn't sound like a word anymore

peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep,

see?

CGB

Leo, your ADHD is literally seeping through your texts

You

You have ADHD?

CGB

Yeah he does

I do too, but it's not as bad as repair boy's over there

Joker Blowtorch

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

sTeEb

What's wrong?

Are you okay?

Joker Blowtorch

Nooooooo

I'm really not ?

You

What happened?

Did someone stab your arm again?

Joker Blowtorch

No

sTeEb

Then what happened?

Joker Blowtorch

MY BEST FRIENDS BETRAYED ME AND STOLE MY BOX OF DOUGHNUTS!

? ゚リᆳ?

You

Oh no!

I'm sorry, I know how that feels

rest in peace Leo's doughnuts

You will be missed

CGB

?

I knew Archery Pigeon and Leo meeting was a bad idea

sTeEb

okaaay?

So, on an unrelated topic, I know practically nothing about you two

CGB

So?

Ignorance is bliss

Joker Blowtorch

I like to build stuff, my hair is brown as are my eyes, I was born in Texas, but live at a camp in New York, I have to stay there all year because my mom is dead, and my dad was lost in a fire, I have an amazing girlfriend named Calypso, and my favorite color is orange

I also make the best tofu tacos in the world

sTeEb

Oh, nice.

Also, I'm sorry about your parents

Joker Blowtorch

Oh it's fine

CGB

Leo, you showed them pictures of me, so I'm gonna show them pictures of you

You

Ooooh yes!

I wanna know what Joker Blowtorch looks like!

CGB

And his girlfriend

You

Yesssss

Joker Blowtorch

Wait what?

CGB

Joker Blowtorch

Nicooooooo

You

Oh my god

first: you look like an elf (in a good way)

second: is that a dragon!?

third: You and your girlfriend are super cute!

CGB

First: Yeah, he does look like an elf

Second: yes that is a dragon, he built it

third: yes, they really are, they're also super funny when Calypso is scolding Leo for lighting the kitchen on fire, it's hilarious

sTeEb

He lit the kitchen on fire!?

Joker Blowtorch

Oh, many times

I'm good with a campfire, or mini stove, but microwaves are one thing that I just can't figure out, I mean, why can't it just cook dry food?

CGB

Because the dry food will burn

for a person with an IQ of 275, you sure are stupid

Joker Blowtorch

Nico, how could you say such a hurtful thing?

My heart is truly wounded ?

You

YOUR CAMP IS IN NEW YORK!

Joker Blowtorch

What?

Nooooooooooooooooooooo

where would you get that idea?

You

"but live at a camp in New York"

Joker Blowtorch

oops. . .

CGB

LEOOOOOOO!

? ゚リᄀ?

Joker Blowtorch

Heh, heh, heh

sTeEb

Well, this narrows it down a lot

CGB

? ゚ᄂᆲ?

Joker Blowtorch

sorry. . .

CGB

Ugg!

I'm done!

don't bother me for the rest of the day

I'll be sleeping

You

Mood

but anyway, I gotta tell Tony

bye

Joker Blowtorch

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

*:・゚✧ ~⭐️~✧゚・: *

?Tony's POV:

My meeting had just ended and I was in my lab working on a new addition to my suit. It was actually the addition Joker Blowtorch had suggested adding to the suit when I first met him.

"Archery Pigeon wishes to speak to you, and is requesting access to the lab, would you like me to grant him access?" FRIDAY asked.

"Ugg, what does he want now?" I said.

"He said he found out a clue as to where 'Joker Blowtorch' and 'CGB''s camp is," FRIDAY replied.

"I really need to program you to detect rhetorical questions, but thanks FRI, yes, send him up," I said.

"You're welcome sir, he is on his way up," FRIDAY responded.

random time skip to six seconds later, that is totally unnecessary, but I felt like adding because that's the level of lazy I'm on right now.

The elevator dinged and Clint walked out.

"So, where is the camp?" I asked.

"I said a clue, not the exact location," Clint said.

"Well, what's the clue?" I asked.

"Their camp is in New York," Clint said.

"Wait, WHAT?" I exclaimed.

"Yup," Clint said.

"Well, that narrows it down a lot," I remarked.

"Yeah, that's what Steve said, but there's like, two hundred camps in the state of New York, probably more," Clint explained.

"Yeah, that's true, but at least we know what state the camp is in, and it's our state," I said.

"Wow, Tony Stark being optimistic? You must really like these kids," Clint laughed.

"You know what? I really do," I said.

"What if we texted them, asking them casual questions about their life, but since they live at their camp, they'll probably spill another clue sooner or later," Clint suggested.

"Wow, Clint Barton having actual good ideas? You must really like these kids," I said smirking.

"Was that a compliment or an insult?" Clint asked, with a confused face. I shrugged.

"I don't know, but I do actually like your idea, let's do it," I said.

"Okay, but, 'CGB' is really mad at 'Joker Blowtorch' right now for spilling a clue about their location, so they might not get along great right now" Clint warned.

"Okay, does Steve know we're doing this?" I asked.

"Nope, he's on a run or something," Clint said.

"Alright, well let's do this," I said.

*:・゚✧ ~⭐️~✧゚・: *

You

Sooooooo

What's up

CGB

Apparently me

What do you want? I was sleeping

You

What?

Joker Blowtorch

Metal Man, were you lOnElY?

It's okay, I'm lonely too

Now we can be lonely together!

CGB

If you're with someone, then you don't qualify as lonely anymore

Archery Pigeon

So. . .

How are you two?

CGB

Tired

Joker Blowtorch

Great!

CGB

Depressed

Joker Blowtorch

Awesome!

CGB

Annoyed

Joker Blowtorch

Happy

CGB

Sad

Joker Blowtorch

hApPy

CGB

Sad

Joker Blowtorch

HAPPY

CGB

Sad

Joker Blowtorch

Please ignore my sobbing

You

ooookay then?

Archery Pigeon

What's your favorite thing you ate today?

You

What kind of question is that?

Archery Pigeon

idk

Joker Blowtorch

I made myself a taco, and it was suuuuuuper good!

You

Nice

What about you CGB?

CGB

I haven't eaten anything today

Archery Pigeon

WHAT?!

But it's like 3:00

Joker Blowtorch

OOOOOOOH!

I'm telling Will!

CGB

Don't you dare!

You

Oh my God, are they starving you at camp or something?

Joker Blowtorch

Dude, chill.

Nico's just weird

CGB

?

Says the one who ran around the dining pavilion waving his hands in the air screaming 'this girl is on fire'

Joker Blowtorch

Hey, it was Jason's fault for leaving me alone with a bowl of jellybeans

CGB

It was your fault for eating them!

Joker Blowtorch

CGB

?

I'm gonna tell Calypso you were being annoying

Joker Blowtorch

CGB

Okay, I'm going to tell her

Joker Blowtorch

Noooooooo

halp

stahp

CGB

Fine, but no more weird reaction pictures

Joker Blowtorch

CGB

Leo, I am outside her cabin door. . .

Joker Blowtorch

Fine, fine!

You

. . .

Archery Pigeon

What is this conversation?

CGB

Leo annoying me

You

Okay. . .?

CGB

My boyfriend is shouting at me for talking to internet strangers and demanding to meet you

can I add him?

Archery Pigeon

YES

YES, YOU CAN!

You

Umm, sure?

Joker Blowtorch

I'm gonna tell Will that you haven't eaten anything todaaay

CGB

Leo don't you dare, or I swear I'm gonna break into your cabin and break Festus

Joker Blowtorch

Festus would barbeque you before you got the chance

CGB

Whatever

I'm adding Will

'CGB' added *** *** **** to 'the weird nicknames chat'

Hello, my name is Will, if you hurt my boyfriend I will steal your kneecaps in your sleep, and throw them into a volcano

You

. . .

IS EVERYONE AT YOUR CAMP THIS SCARY AND VIOLENT?

Ah hah!

Hear that Leo!

This 'Metal Man' dude thinks I'm scary

Joker Blowtorch

Will, you are by no means scary or evil, just stop trying

?

Archery Pigeon

Hey, CGB's boyfriend, who's your favorite avenger?

Hawkeye obviously

He's so cool!

But everybody totally underestimates him!

CGB

Oh boy, here we go again

He can shoot super cool arrows and he's really fast and agile!

And he's literally a spy!

And an assassin!

Joker Blowtorch

Okay, I'm out

see you later guys

CGB

Same, you two can do your nerdy fan-boy thing on your own

You

Yeah, I think I'll go too

See you later

Archery Pigeon

Whatever

I'll listen to your rant

Hawkeye is awesome!

Finally!

Someone who speaks English!

*:・゚✧ ~⭐️~✧゚・: *

I sighed. The plan did not go as planned.

Clint had moved down to the living room after we started texting, so I was alone in my lab. (Not lonely, just alone).

I decided to try to hack 'CGB''s boyfriend's phone, maybe his didn't have that stupid dragon on it.

Time skip to after he does some hacking, because I have no clue how to hack a phone, much less write about it.

It turns out his phone didn't have the annoying dragon on it! Either that, or the annoying dragon was a feature he could turn off and on, and he had it turned off.

Once I got past the firewalls, I could easily track his phone, they were in Long Island!

"Yes!" I exclaimed. "I've gotta tell Clint and Steve."

? ゚ヌᄌ Steve's POV:

I had just gotten back from my run, and I was exhausted. I went to the kitchen to grab a glass of water because I drank all my water in the first half of my run.

When I got to the kitchen I saw Clint sitting on the couch, on his phone, smiling bigger than I thought was humanly possible.

"Umm, what are you doing Clint?" I asked.

"Listening to 'CGB''s boyfriend's rant about how awesome Hawkeye is," Clint replied, his eyes still glued to his phone.

"How'd you get 'CGB''s boyfriend's number?" I asked.

"'CGB' added him to the chat," Clint said.

"Oh," I responded.

Before any of us could say anything else, the elevator dinged, and Tony stepped out looking really happy.

"What happened while I was gone? Why are you two smiling like maniacs?" I asked.

"I found the location of 'CGB', his boyfriend, and 'Joker Blowtorch''s camp!" Tony stated.

"What! Really?" Clint and I exclaimed at the same time.

"Yep," Tony said.

"Where is it?" Clint asked.

"Long Island," Tony said.

"What's in Long Island?" Natasha asked stepping out of the doorway.

"Ah!" Clint yelped in surprise. "You are very good at sneaking up on people."

Natasha rolled her eyes. "Of course I am, I'm a spy." She said.

"We've been texting some kids, they go to a camp, and we just found out the camp is," I said.

"Clint, please tell me this isn't the kid you said you made friends with last week," Natasha said. Clint laughed nervously. Natasha facepalmed. "Why do you need to know where their camp is anyways?" Natasha asked.

"Here, just read through all our texts," Tony said, pulling out his phone, putting it on the group chat, and handing it to Natasha. "But don't you dare do anything else but look through the group chat."

Natasha nodded, scrolling to the top of the chat.

Time skip to ten minutes later when she's done reading through the group chat

"Wow, well that was. . . interesting," Natasha remarked.

"Yeah, but they're nice kids," I said.

"They seem nice, I can see why Clint made friends with them," Natasha said.

"But we need to save them from that camp, and all the other kids there too," Tony said.

"I'm coming with you," Natasha stated.

"What?" Tony said.

"Did I stutter?" Natasha said. "I'm coming with you, and that wasn't a request, it was a statement."

"Coming where?" someone asked from behind Natasha.

"Oh, it's nothing Peter," Tony said.

"We're going to Long Island," Natasha told him.

"Natasha!" Clint exclaimed.

"What?" She asked.

"Why are you going to Long Island?" Peter asked.

"To save some kids," I responded.

"How old are they?" Peter asked.

"Fifteen," Tony said.

"Can I come?" Peter asked.

"No, absolutely not, it's dangerous," Tony said.

"But I'm Spiderman, I'm a superhero, dangerous is like. . . my thing!" Peter argued.

"Yeah Tony, he's Spiderman he can handle it, besides I've been training him, so he'll be better at hand-to-hand combat, which is most likely what they do at the camp," Natasha said.

"What camp?" Peter asked.

"Here, read through the texts," Natasha said, handing Peter Tony's phone.

Another time skip to ten minutes later after Peter finished reading the texts

"They seem cool!" Peter said. "But I don't like that camp place."

"Which is why we're going to save them," I said.

"Can I be added to the chat too?" Peter asked.

"After we save them, yes," Tony replied.

"So, when should we head out," I asked.

"I don't see why we can't leave right now," Natasha said.

"I'll tell Happy to get the hellicarrier ready," Tony said.

"Umm, is Fury gonna be mad that we're just disappearing without telling him?" I asked.

Tony shrugged. "Probably, but we can just say it was an emergency, which it is because we need to save them as soon as possible," he said.

"Right," Clint agreed.

Another time skip to when they're in the hellicarrier because Timmy said so. This is Timmy: ᕙ(◍.◎)ᕗ

"Do the others know where we are?" I asked.

"Umm, no, I don't think so, but we should probably tell them, so they don't think we got kidnapped or anything," Natasha said.

"I'll text Bucky," I said.

"Okay," Clint said.

*:・゚✧ ~⭐️~✧゚・: *

You

Hey Bucky. Natasha, Tony, Clint, Steve, Peter, and I are going to Long Island for a couple of hours, so if you don't see us around the tower don't worry.

Bucky

Okay

Also, why are you going to Long Island?

You

We're going to go save some kids

Bucky

?

You

We've been texting them for a while, and one day one of them let it slip that they try to kill each other at their camp

They won't let us save them though

They won't let us track them, and they won't tell us where their camp is either

but Tony finally found out where their camp is

So we're going to go save them now

Bucky

Oh

cool

You

What?

How is that 'cool'?

Bucky

Idk, good luck saving them

I'll tell the others you're out on a mission

Also, is their camp in any way associated with HYDRA or Red Room?

because that might explain the killing part

You

I don't know

But that would explain the killing part

Hopefully, the camp isn't associated with them though

Bucky

Yeah, that would be a disaster

You

We're almost at the camp so I gtg

bye

Bucky

Bye

*:・゚✧ ~⭐️~✧゚・: *

"Okay, I told Bucky to tell the others, he said he will," I said.

"Alright good, because we're here," Natasha said.

"This looks like a rundown barn," Peter remarked.

"Well obviously they wouldn't have a camp where kids try to kill each other out in the open," Tony said.

"It's probably underground or hidden somewhere near here," Clint guessed.

The hellicarrier started lowering to the ground. "Let's go save some kids," I said.
