Tony's Plan
The alarm blared. Clint emerged from his rooms within seconds armed. The Captain came out of his room, pulling on a shirt. Bruce came out groggily, covering his ears. It was at least 11 o'clock at night. Natasha came out of her bathroom wearing a towel, dripping wet.
"Uhhhh…" said the Captain. Both Bruce and Steve gawked, mouths opened.
"What's going on Clint?" asked Natasha
"I don't know Nat." He threw her a knife and she caught it.
Tony ran through. "Briefing! Come on everyone! The mighty god of thunder has arrived so we can have our briefing now!"
"That's what you woke us up for?" Bruce asked incredulously.
"You can get your beauty sleep later gramps." Cried Tony, excitedly rushing towards the conference room. Thor walked through and looked at the other Avengers apologetically.
The others made their way to the conference room behind them. Clint turned.
"Uh Nat?"
"What?"
"Don't you maybe want to put some clothes on?"
"Oh yeah." Clint leaned against the wall and waited outside her door for her to throw on a shirt and sweatpants.
Meanwhile in the conference room Tony slammed the door.
"Ok guys," Tony pressed himself against the wall and kept peeking out the door for them "This mission has a secret objective that Natasha and Clint can't know about."
"What?" said Thor.
"Tony, Idk if that's a good idea…" said Steve. Tony had taught him text lingo and Steve still wasn't grasping the concept.
"You'll see! Now shh!"
They entered the conference room together.
"You're late!"
"Thought I should at least put some clothes on." Her hair dripped onto the metal table.
"That's preposterous! I'm pretty sure the guys would not have minded your lack of clothing one bit."
"I'm sure," she replied, amused. The others coughed or shifted uncomfortably in their seats, avoiding looking at Natasha or each other. Clint glared at Tony from the shadows, leaning against the wall. Or maybe it was her imagination. Did Tony design the room so there was a shadowy corner just for him? It was a spot close to her seat too.
"What's the mission Tony? What was so important you called me in from all the way across the Universe?" asked Thor.
"And woke us up at this ungodly hour?" asked Bruce. The others looked at him.
"Do people go to bed earlier now than they used to?" asked Steve seriously. Tony ignored them and continued.
"I'm having a party." He smirked. There was a moment and then the heroes were in an uproar.
"What!" the Captain shouted.
"I'm going back to bed." Said Bruce.
"You dare use up my valuable time and call me from all the way across the-" Tony cut Thor off.
" And! And the leader of the terrorist group that captured me years ago is invited to the party and I need all of your help to bring the group to Justice."
"Well that's way different." Said the Captain. They all sat down except Clint. He stayed leaning against the wall.
"So it will be a high class party. I'll be acting as host obviously and Pepper will be expected to be with me. Steve and Natasha will be posing as a couple invited to the party," Clint shifted and cleared his throat.
"Clint and Thor will be posing as security. So Clint you can cover us from a top balcony. And Thor you can cover us on the ground. Bruce you'll be um…at the door. I need you Bruce to be able to take Pepper and get her out if things get dangerous." Tony didn't say it but they all knew the disposable position was also in case Bruce got angry. Bruce nodded solemnly.
"So then what's the plan?" asked the Captain.
"Uh. Well I thought you could come up with that Captain after we're there and you can assess the situation. So we need codenames! I think I should be red dragon and-"
The others got up and left.
As they made their way towards their rooms Steve caught up with Natasha.
"Hey. So I need your help with something."
"Okay. What is it? Weapons training?"
"Dance lessons."
Wow, 2 chapters in 1 day!
I'm so proud of myself!
