Hela, And The Avengers

Daily Pranks ~4~

Alex's POV

Day nine of being here. Tony was about to yell at me when Pepper whisked me away and showed me a room near Steve's that I could stay in. I have been planning an amazing prank since. Steve had come back but left again. I'm yet to see anyone else around but then again I have been working in my room. I made a type of Spray paint that you can't remove. It evaporates because I don't want to cost millions in damage to anything. Right now I'm crawling through the vents to break into Tony's Lab. His suit is in there and I hope he likes pink. I hit my head against the vent with a loud thud, chances are someone heard that. I sit still and listen, no one suspects a thing. I reach Tony's lab. I know Pepper will call him in exactly thirty seconds. I set up a fake call from Coulson. The fake call rings, Pepper calls Tony to come up and he does so. I jump out of the vent and begin my work quickly. I start with the helmet. Pink takes over the red sections. I then paint on a skirt and crop top. I hear him coming back cursing prank callers or something. I race back to the vent and crawl away. I jump out in the living room, scaring Pepper.

"Alex! Give some warning when you do that!" She laughs. "Didn't Tony say you weren't to be up here?"

"ALEX!"

"Yup!" I race for the elevator. I won't open. Pepper is shaking her head. She walks past Tony into his lab and starts laughing. Tony, on the other hand, is furious. He storms up to me. I hide the paint can behind my back. Honestly, I hadn't thought this through. It was only know, I realised what this behaviour usually resulted in. I took a step back. "Hey, tones! Wassup..." I said awkwardly.

"You just ruined a multi-million dollar suit." His hands were balled into fists. He was trembling and face red with anger. I did pull something like this every day since I got here. "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!" I yelled. I began to panic. I needed to be out of here. Right now, I could just push him. I am a lot stronger than a normal teen. It took me a minute to notice, but picture frames were rattling, objects threatened to fly from there place. I couldn't look Tony in the eye. If he knew he would put me on file. Fury didn't want that, Phil didn't want that. I couldn't disappoint another person that I cared about. "Look at me when I am talking to you!" Tony shouted and stepped closer. The lights in the room blew, sparks flew everywhere. Pepper screamed and Tony blocked his own face and mine. I started frantically pressing the elevator button.

"Let me go down Tony. I-I need to see Steve." The button broke. Shit. I shut my eyes. I really needed to be in that elevator. Upon opening my eyes again, I was. I wasn't about to question it. I gentle tapped the button and the elevator began to move. The doors opened and I ran, past some people I didn't recognise. I pounded on Steve's bedroom door. I heard movement inside and he opened up. I was still panicking. "S-Steve I messed up. It was only a prank, it won't cause any damage but I did I don't know how to stop it." I was speaking a mile a minute. Steve was thinking for a minute.

"Alex, it's ok. I'm here, no one here will hurt you I promise that." Steve said squatting down to my height. "Follow my breathing ok?" He deep breath in, I followed suit. Mine a lot shakier. After a minute I felt back in control. Steve noticed this and finally asked the dreaded question. "What did you do?" The elevator door opened thirty seconds later. Out stepped Tony.

"She broke my elevator! Steve the lights just blew on my floor, all of them at once and random objects like pictures and glasses just fell off the tables. We need to lock down the Tower." Steve chuckled at Tony's words. This confused him, I could tell. I shook my head at Steve.

"He was going to find out eventually Alex. What triggered it this time?" Steve asked me, ignoring Tony's confused stares.

"He was yelling at me. Got to close so I freaked out. I've been on edge trying to keep it a secret as well." I shrugged, also ignoring the now annoyed billionaire. Then it dawned on him.
