Chapter 34

"GUYS! GUYS! Guess what I found on eBay for 3 bucks!" Tony shouted as he ran into the Avengers common room and promptly tripped on Bruce's massive train set that spanned the entire length of the room.

"AHHH! MY MASTER PIECE!" Bruce shouted.

"AHH MY HAIR!" Steve cried as he stared at the jar sitting on his head.

"NOO MY JAR OF DIRT!" Tony sobbed as he watched his 3 bucks fall to the floor. Bruce paused in his dramatic shock and stared at the black substance pouring out all over the floor with great wariness.

"Tony...I don't think that's dirt..." Bruce said cautiously.

They all paled.

"Why is my head itching...?" Steve asked slowly.

"Now that I think about...mine is too..." Tony said nervously.

They all froze.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" they all screamed in unison.

"STARK WE'RE GOING TO KILL YOU!" Steve shouted as he itched his head like crazy.

"WAHH! I DIDN'T KNOW!" Tony wailed.

Suddenly the door slammed open to reveal the one woman who could silence the avengers forever.

It wasn't Natasha - she was one of them by now.

"ALL OF YOU SHUT UP! SOME PEOPLE ACTUALLY WORK IN THIS BUILDING! I WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS NOISE UNLESS YOUR HEAD IS BEING DUNKED IN A TOILET - AND EVEN THEN! UNDERSTOOD?" Pepper shouted.

Whimper.

Pepper finally calmed down enough to actually notice the state of the avengers who frighteningly resembled headless chickens itching themselves like monkeys.

"Oh hell no I'm not dealing with this," Pepper said darkly.

2 hours later.

3 bald Avengers were found sobbing in the corner.

"Pepper...I didn't know you had it in you..." Natasha said in shock.

"I have the patience for many things agent Romanoff...but i do NOT have the patience for lice," Pepper said blankly.

"My hair..." a tiny sob was hear from the corner of doom.
