Avengers Oneshots

Maybe we don't know Peter all that well

Happy days to all of you who have just been locked down (including myself). Hopefully it all clears over soon enough. Happy reading!

Peter walked into the Avengers Compound, making a beeline towards Tony's lab. They were supposed to have their lab day today but Tony called last minute telling Peter not to bother today. It had to be cancelled due to 'the pirate' calling about a mission, so he was going to get Happy to take him straight home. So, naturally, Peter told Happy to take him to the Compound. He wasn't going to miss today, even if it meant that he wasn't going to actually be in the lab.

"Tony told me to take you home, so that's what I'm gonna do." Happy informed him, leaving no room for argument yet knowing that that was exactly what Peter would do; he would argue with him all the way and he knew this. Still, he tried to reason with the kid against it although he knew that it wouldn't work.

"Happy, I'm not gonna miss out on the lab day. Everything has been scheduled perfectly so that I could do a lab day today anyway; I've moved my homework time for tomorrow, rescheduled my shift at the deli and I can't even patrol today 'cause we were gonna work on the suit together. Mr. Stark was expecting me today and I can't just... let him down, can I? Even if he won't be there to help." He even put on his signature puppy eyes to persuade him further. Happy sighed and made a U-Turn.

So, that is how he ended up standing in the lift of the Avengers Compound 30 minutes later, heading to the lab. He knew that he wouldn't have their lab day but he still thought that he might be able to come over and work on his suit alone in the lab and have it ready for patrol the following night.

"He Fri, can you take me to Mr. Stark's lab please?"
"Of corse Mr. Parker but please note that he won't be there to join you today. He has some important business to attend to."
"Thanks Fri, Mr. Stark has told me about that. I haven't told him that I'm here yet, though." Peter whispered the last part, mostly talking to himself.
"Would you like me to alert boss that you're here, Mr. Parker?" Peter sometimes wondered if Friday was programmed to have super-hearing or something.
"No Fri, that's okay. Just gonna work on my suit."

The elevator dinged as the doors opened, revealing the lab. It was messy as always; papers were scattered across the floor, scrap pieces of metal littered across the place and blueprints across every spare part of any desk that there was. It might be messy but to Peter it was like a second home. It was a place where he could completely and utterly himself. This was what he knew he would see when he walked in.

What he didn't expect, though, is to see the Avengers in there with Director Fury working on some obviously important SHEILD stuff. Was this a good thing or did Parker Luck come to strike again?

"Hey underoos, what are you doing here? I thought I told Happy to take you home." Tony spoke whilst making movements to call Happy to come pick the boy up.
"H-Hey Mr. Stark, I thought I'd come and work on the suit so that I could go on patrol tomorrow. What are you doing here? I-I thought that you had to cancel due to some important SHEILD stuff going on? W-What's happening?"

"We are still doing stuff with SHEILD, Queens. We just thought that it would be better to discuss our tactics here. Why don't you just go back home and work on homework or something, hey?" Captain America told him firmly. But, instead of Peter listening to him like he knew he should, he walked right past him and towards the hologram that was being displayed. On it were two different lists: one was of the bad guys that they were trying to shut down and the other was a list of innocent people that had been kidnapped.

Peter turned to look at the other hologram that was being displayed to the right of him. It was a hologram of the building that they were trying to enter to it their plan into motion. Apparently, whatever they had planned was going to fail. But, he was curious to see what they had come up with.

"So, what's the plan?" He asked. They all stared at him for a good minute until Clint finally answered him.
"Well, my plan is quite complicated but I think that it might actually work. So, Tony and Natasha will be positioned on the south side of the building. Steve and Thor will be on the north side. I will make my way through from the roof and Bruce will be on Quinjet over in the surrounding forest-y area nearby. We will have an army of trained monkeys fire their guns at the men inside, allowing us easier access. The monkeys will protect us while we are inside freeing the prisoners from the kidnappers. Any questions?"

The whole room speaks still in shock from what Clint had just suggested that they do. I mean, monkeys with guns? How did he expect that they do that. Tony was the first to come to his senses. "Clint, how do you expect that we do any of that? Firstly, where will we get monkeys around here? Secondly, where will we get trained monkeys from around here."

"I know a guy," Peter replied casually. "Just two questions. One, how may monkeys are you hoping for and two, do you want them in vests or in tutus?"
"I'm hoping about five and in tutus, obviously." Clint replied.
"Okay, that will take me a little longer. Give me about an hour and a half and..."
"Why will it take longer for the tutus?" Natasha was genially curious now.
"Well, you have to see what monkeys do and don't like wearing tutus. That's the hard part. Trust me, if the monkeys don't like tutus then don't put them in a tutu."
"How do you know this young man of spiders?" Thor dared ask. Peter gave him a look that could kill. It might not have been as bad as Natasha's stare but it sure was one that she was proud of. He didn't answer but instead turned on his phone and dialled a number that none of them recognised and walked out of the room.

"What was all of that about?" Bruce asked shyly, not wanting to say anything bad but wanting to know what was going on. They all replied that they had absolutely no idea when Peter entered the room again.
"Okay so I started to organise for the monkeys to be sent over to the tower but then Sam said that Harry was on his job. I asked where and he said that Harry works at the building that we were going to infiltrate. Sam said Harry might help us so long as I go as me and tell him that I know Sam. Any questions? No? Okay then let's get going." He left no time for questions to be answered and instead immediately left the room.

"What just happened?" Clint was still in a state of shock.

"Maybe we don't know Peter all that well."
