A/N: Goodness, I'm sorry for the wait! My dad and I went on a longish trip, so I wasn't able to update till now. ^^' But I hope this chapter will make up for that! And I'm still accepting prompts (more prompts may help me update quicker – just saying ^^). So, I hope you enjoy another misadventure of our favorite god of mischief!
Loki was unfamiliar with this thing called "a wall-mart" of sorts. He could not fathom why any of the Avengers would need a whole mart dedicated to walls. The trickster looked over at Thor who seemed to be overflowing with excitement – he loved going to new places. Clint Barton seemed a tad on edge as he made his way over to Tony Stark.
"Um, Mr. Billionaire, sir? Can't we afford a little better than a Wal-Mart?" the hawk practically screeched. Tony just rolled his eyes.
"Have you ever seen two gods, two super assassins, an angry scientist, an iconic super hero, and the best person to ever be alive, go into an uptown store unnoticed? I didn't think so!" the man of iron said in a hushed voice. Loki's eyebrow quirked.
"And they say I have an ego," the God of Mischief said with a smirk. The smirk faded when Tony gave him a death glare that could have easily rivaled Odin's. He decided to change the subject in order to avoid the beating that he was probably going to end up disserving if he kept the sarcasm coming. "What exactly is this mart of wall that we are going to?"
"It's a superstore that sells almost everything that normal people might need," Bruce, the "angry scientist", quickly explained.
"Ah, that sounds much more enticing than what I had previously been thinking," Loki said with a smile that set the hawk and the widow on edge – they still weren't very trusting of him. Without any further discussion, the Avengers and Loki all filed out of Stark Tower and into the three cars that were waiting for them. The drive to the Wal-Mart was fairly short – Loki had managed to keep himself entertained by constantly rolling his window up and down, much to Tony's dismay (Stark had elected to ride with Thor and Loki as they seemed to be the most destructive).
Upon arrival to the Wal-Mart everyone did what was to be expected of any super hero or ex-villain would do; they all ran at full speed to the toy section to see if they had any toys made of them. Tony was very pleased to see that there were many versions of the Ironman suit in miniature form. Steve couldn't contain his excitement as he picked up the small versions of his shield. Hawkeye stomped his foot like a small child and let out a lengthy rant brimming with profanity when he discovered that there weren't any action figures made in his honor. Natasha rolled her eyes any pointed out that there was a Nerf bow and arrow set with him on the box and he was on a party cup set – she had absolutely nothing with her face on it. Bruce was a little intrigued by the plastic Hulk hands that made noises when touched. Thor was dancing around victoriously as he held all six plastic versions of himself.
A frown formed on Loki's face as his eyes scanned the shelf for any sign of his name or face. He slowly walked over to the toys and plucked a package from the very back of the shelf. He looked down at the small version of himself.
"I look bored…" he observed. Banner glanced over at the action figure in Loki's hand.
"Do you really have an axe like that?" he asked pointing to the double battle axe in the box. Loki scoffed.
"As if I would ever fight with something so brutal," the prankster said with a smirk.
"Brother, look at this!" Thor yelled as he held up a box that held a frost giant action figure. "They're so tiny compared to the real ones aren't they?" He handed the package to Loki whose face became abruptly serious.
"These monsters do not disserve such replicas…" Loki whispered as his grip on the box tightened.
"Hey, remember that if you break something, I have to buy it," Tony said with a glare. Loki blinked back the unsuspected tears that had formed in his eyes, and unceremoniously threw the box on to the shelf, turned on his heal, and stormed off with the excuse of finding candy.
Thor suddenly noticed the plastic replicas of Mjolnir, and only calmed down when Bruce explained that they were really only made of plastic and possessed no power what so ever.
As Loki walked angrily about the Wal-Mart he noticed that none of the items had him on them. He sighed as he realized that he was rather responsible for that, but that was the past and he was no longer like that. He was so deep in his musings that he almost didn't notice the rather large candy aisle as he passed by it. The God of Mischief actually did a double take as he stopped at the entrance of the aisle. His eyes widened slightly. Luckily for his pride, the aisle was empty. He ran down the aisle in a glee filled fashion. Boney fingers flitted over every sugar filled package, childish laughter escaped his lips as he began to pick up as much candy as he could hold.
By the time the Avengers caught up with him, he had managed to acquire about $104 worth of candy. Tony face palmed, as Steve kindly brought Loki a basket which Thor, Natasha, Clint and Loki happily filled to the top. The total bill for the trip was $346 – all of which was candy with the exception of a new Ironman action figure to add to Stark's ever growing collection.
A/N: Loki's going to have such a sugar rush from all that candy! ^^ Anyways, please review and drop by any prompts that you'd like me to work with, I really appreciate all feedback! :) (Voldemort face!)
