Author's note: Hey guys! So I feel like Bruce is kinda out of character, but tell me what you think.

When Hawkeye also known as Clint Barton walked out of the elevator Peter knew he was gone. Dead. Extinct. Clint was like the stupid, playful and childish uncle. Peter loved him to death, though he would never admit it, but sometimes, he could be very embarrassing. He knew it was no coincidence, since when did Clint take the public elevator to the lobby? Oh that's right, he didn't. So it was to no surprise when he perked up when he saw their class. Peter had tried to hide, he really had, but how are you supposed to hide from as assassin whose name was Hawkeye. You aren't.

"Hey Pete!" Clint exclaimed casually, "what're you doing here you little brat?"

"Um. Hi , I'm here on a school field trip," he gritted his teeth, "though I presume you already know," he mumbled.

"Of course I knew, that's why I thought it would be good to pop up! And what's up with the whole 'Mr. Barton' thing. First name basis remember, man, and I thought we were friends," he said sadly. Peter's class was staring in shock, something they had been doing a lot of.

"Ho- how do you know Hawkeye, Parker?" someone managed to choke out of the silence. Peter shrugged.

" , it's been a pleasure talking to you but we are running on a tight schedule and should be on the lower R&D labs by now, you can accompany us or let us leave, please," Samantha spoke with a fake smile on her face.

"You mind if I skip? I gotta get to training, but first, coffee, would you care to join Pete?" he asked, smiling coyly. Peter shook his head before rushing to the elevator, ears tinged red. Hawkeye chuckled before saluting to the class and heading out the main entrance.

The class piled into the elevator, fitting in just barely. Flash, unfortunately for Peter, was right next to him.

"How much did you pay Hawkeye to pretend to know you? Huh? There is no way he actually knows you? Your internship here, it's all a sham," he hissed in Peter's ear. glanced at Flash as a warning.

"Think what you want Flash, I don't care, your opinion is not valid to me. You are making a fool out of yourself. Deal with it, maybe I have an internship, why does it affect you?" Peter reprimanded him. For the first time in a long time, Eugene Thompson was speechless. Smirking, Peter turned around to face the doors of the elevator which were opening slowly to reveal a large room, stocked with science related things.

Samantha stepped out first walking ahead of the group and gesturing them to follow her. She stopped in front of a glass window, which was a sort of viewing room into the labs.

"Okay everyone, this is lower level research and development laboratory. This is where low level interns work, whether it be for enhancing Stark-tech or for participating in smaller projects such as clean energy, though they do not work on the arc reactor, they try to find a different source of clean energy," she started, "we are currently on the 31st floor. We are going to go in, and look around for about," she glanced at her watch, "20 minutes? Yeah. Ask around, the interns will explain their individual projects to you guys."

So they all segregated, talking to Samantha, looking around and striking up conversation with the interns. At one point Peter was called away by Ben, who needed some help in the code of his new robot, that one incident had caused quite an up rise in his class. Flash had seemed morally insulted as people snickered and laughed at him about how he was wrong. He had shoved past Peter growling and grumbling before picking up interest in one of the other projects, ignoring the class.

"Alright guys, let's move on," Samantha called out. They all piled into the elevator once again, ready to move to the higher labs.

"These labs are quite dangerous, so do not touch anything under any circumstances, you all will be given a presentation on the Arc Reactor and might even be lucky enough to meet Dr. Banner," she said to everyone. The elevator came to a stop, the doors opened and Pepper Potts walked in, donning an ear piece and clutching a tablet to her chest. (A/N:Pepper and Tony had married two years ago but Pepper decided to keep her last name, same went with Peter.)

She clicked the ear piece off, before turning around to face the class.

"Samantha! Leading a tour, I'm guessing? Which school is this?," she asked, not seeming to notice Peter.

"Midtown High," Samantha replied simply.

"Oh!" she seemed to notice Peter, "Peter, honey, this was today, I promised to keep out of your way. I'm sorry honey," she exclaimed, the 'honey' part being a reflex to her. Peter wanted to face palm.

"It's okay Pepper, it's fine," he said softly.

"Anyway, text me what you want for dinner, Steve and I are taking a strike, okay? " she said, before throwing an apologetic glance over her shoulder and stepping out of the opened elevator door.

His class looked confused and kind of freaked out. Before any of them could say anything, the elevator dinged and they had to get off. Thankful for the distraction, Peter lingered at the back, ignoring the pointed looks at him, that told him to 'explain'.

Dr Bruce Banner stood there in all his un-hulked glory and welcomed them. They were in a room of a sort with chairs lined in front of them.

"Hello Midtown," he started, catching Peter's eye and winking, "I'm Bruce Banner, some of you might know me as the Hulk. No I will not turn into a green rage-monster, I promise you. The Arc Reactor is one of the many things that makes up Stark Industries and if you are to work here in the future, you will need to have knowledge on it. Take a seat everyone." So he continued for what seemed like ages to Peter, but it was really only an hour, since he already learned about the Arc Reactor, but his class seemed to listen with great interest.

"So, thus it proves that the Arc Reactor is a gateway to clean energy. Any questions?" Bruce asked, hands immediately shot up, "that are not about the Hulk?"

Over half the hands went down. Bruce gestured to Flash.

"Do you know if Peter Parker works here?" he asked slyly.

"Of course he does, I know him personally, great kid he is. Is he here right now?"

"Hey Bruce," he said shyly, standing up and waving.

"Hey, kid," he nodded at Peter, "well, you guys should be getting to lunch right about now."

"We should, thank you for that Dr. Banner," Samantha ushered the class to the elevator. They headed to the 20th floor, apparently there was a cafeteria there for them to eat in. They reached the 20th floor and the elevator dinged once again, signalling that they were at their destination. When they walked into the cafeteria, they found their places, separating into cliques.

That's when the door was flung open to reveal Black Widow and Scarlet Witch.
