Third Person P.O.V

The second the words 'Avengers Assemble' escaped Nick's throat everyone turned towards him in surprise.

Nick held up a folder which he had been holding in his hand and looked at them all, "I need you to detain this girl, bring her in ASAP. I have business to attend to so here's information on her and I'm sure Tony can find more. We need her, alive."

With that Nick turned on his heel and stormed out without a flaw in his step.

As soon as the elevator shut everyone raced towards the folder curious about this girl that Nick obviously thought was a threat.

Thor's P.O.V

We all sat around the table and slowly the folder was passed from Tony to Natasha, to Clint, Bruce, Steve and finally me.

We were meant to be having a movie night watching something called 'The Hunger Games' it sounded terribly boring but we were all keen on watching it well I wasn't but it did intrigue me.

As I read the first line...

Bruce's P.O.V

It was horrifying to think that a seventeen year old could be a terrorist and I was kind of in shock as I read it and I passed the folder to Steve.

Steve then read it and looked confused and slowly gave the folder to Thor and the second the Thor read the first line he leapt and squealed.

"Odin's beard! Odin's beard!" Thor yelped out running around the room laughing as loud as a herd of elephants running around! Good job we didn't have neighbours and that the whole place was sound proof.

I raised an eyebrow at him and turned towards him, "Thor do you know this girl then?" He turned towards me, "Do I know her? No, I wish I did, she's my hero! We should go fetch her later, I want to watch The Hunger Games!" Thor squeaked out.

All of us exchanged confused looks before looking at him and Tony spoke, "Guys he's right and wrong... First of all we ran out of popcorn and pop tarts so we need to go shopping."

Somehow through the whole argument I fell asleep and when my eyes opened I found that to my horror I was underneath a pile of stuff and there was a bottom in my face.

Natasha's P.O.V

The second pop tarts were mentioned Tony and Thor flew into an argument about going to the shops and not going to the shops and simply watching The Hunger Games.

Not long after Bruce fell asleep somehow despite the noise and I stood up beyond annoyed, "LETS JUST GO TO THE SHOPS AND LEAVE IT AT THAT!" I yelled out now completely enraged that I didn't have time to sleep and it was now 6:00am!

Thor picked up Bruce and we all walked to the shops looking a mess.

When we got to the shops Thor put Bruce in the food trolley and Clint perched on the edge of the trolley. To stop the trolley toppling over Tony decided to put his feet on a pole which connected the wheels together and hang onto the handle and Steve mimicked this and did it next to Tony.

I'm not even sure how they managed that without the trolley tipping but either way I was left to push the stupid trolley while Thor went around looking for pop tarts.

While going down the aisle and putting various foods in the trolley Thor suddenly turned up and ran into me with so much force I ended up flipping over Tony  and Steve and landing on the food which was on top of poor Bruce who I think was still sleeping.

Judging by Bruce's squeals he was awake and that's when I realised I was sitting on his face I looked up to see a Clint sitting on the side of the trolley moving his hands about in panic.

That's when I saw that we were hurtling towards a young girl looking at a packet of chicken.

Thankfully Clint's chaotic movements sent our speeding trolley pass the girl and she jumped but didn't bother turning to see the trolley go kart.

To my greatest surprise we managed to stop at the end of the aisle. After quite a bit of squabbling through my daze I could only hear the girl yelling about shopping and food.

Whatever she had said was either weird or offensive as everyone fell silent.

I turned around to see between Tony and Steve was Thor holding the trolley and leaning backwards obviously he had stopped the trolley. 

Then suddenly he fell over backwards and this sent the trolley propelling backwards with force.

The trolley went over Thor and we went flying into the air and were gaining speed the second we landed back on the floor.

We all screamed as we were sent whizzing towards the girl.

The girl heard us and looked at us in alarm and tried to leap out of the way but we were far too fast.

The trolley knocked the girl backwards and somehow everything just went crashing down the shopping cart/trolley flipped over and everything fell out and the trolley landed neatly on four wheels neatly on the floor a few meters away.

We were all in a huge heap and the girl pulled herself away from us and growled at us and I swore that I saw fangs but I was so dazed I wasn't sure of what I saw.

Eventually we all managed to shake off the daze and we all started putting food back in our trolley and the girl did the same to her stuff.

It took a while but we all managed to get everything back into the trolley and the girls basket.

Once it was all done we collapsed on to the floor except the girl which was watching us curiously.

Bruce suddenly stood up and walked over to the girl, "Hello... What's your name?" Actually we were all curious about this girl she was extremely pale and had the darkest black eyes possible there were dark bags under her eyes and she looked a little deranged.

To our surprise she backed away looking afraid and turned away from Bruce and she took a few steps away and leant on a wall looking nauseous.

As quick as it came it vanished and she smiled weakly at Bruce, "Hey I'm Lexi, what are your names?" Bruce forced a smile but obviously that's not he wanted to know, "We will tell you in a second Lexi but are you alright? You should have been crushed in that."

Lexi gave a confused look and her smile turned into a frown as she stared at the spot of the incident.

"I'm not sure... I guess I'm lucky I didn't even get bruised... Strange." Lexi said softly staring down the aisle, "I guess my coin has flipped I'm never lucky my friends say I'm cursed with bad luck and they were right even now, I think that strange stuff is bad especially after... Never mind forget I said anything."

I shrugged it off, "Well I'm Natasha that's Clint, Bruce, Steve, Tony and... Thor... where is he?" Lexi looked up at me when I said Thor and I rolled my eyes, "Yeah like Thor the Norse Gods."

Lexi smirked, "Actually I wasn't going to say that... Well I was but I was going to say 'Thor like the Norse God, Thor like Thorium the metal on the periodic table and Thor like Thursday?" Lexi paused before speaking again.

"Ya know 'cause it used to be Thorsday or something like that and in Germany Thursday's Donnerstag and Donnerstag literally translates into Thunder day." Lexi finished.
