Chapter 5: Fun Time
June 30 2018
The training room buzzed with energy as some of the team members gathered to watch their fellow Avengers sparring, Right now Anne and Natasha were training together, Anne rushed in, grabbing Natasha's arm and attempting a judo throw. Natasha countered and reversed the move, flipping Anne over her shoulder instead. Anne landed hard but rolled to her feet, immediately lunging for Natasha's legs. She executed a clean double-leg takedown, but Natasha trapped her in a guard, her legs locking around Anne's torso.
Anna managed to break out as both girls got up, Natasha tried to surprise Anne with a kick before Anne did a cartwheel and surprised her with a clean suplex, The others applauded as Anne took a deep breath while Natasha got up from the floor and had a smile on her face.
Natasha: Great work.
Anne: *Smiles* Thanks.
Next up was Benjamin and Clint, Benjamin fired a quick web at the ceiling, yanking himself upward and flipping mid-air as Clint was shooting arrows at him but Benjamin dodged it effortlessly, landing behind Clint with a graceful corkscrew spin, Benjamin tried to kick him but Clint sidestepped and shot two more arrows, one ricocheting off the wall as Benjamin ducked.
The two were in a fast pace, hitting several strikes and moves, Benjamin wasn't only relaying on his abilities, He also used his strength, reflexes and fighting skills that he learned, As Clint aimed his bow and arrow again, Benjamin shot a web to disarm him, pulling the bow out of his grip and yanking it into his own hands.
Benjamin: Gotcha!
Clint smirked, pulling a second bowstring hidden at his side and firing an arrow as Benjamin was shocked but immediately dodged it.
Clint: *Smiles* Rule one, kid, Never assume I'm out of tricks.
Benjamin: *Takes a deep breath and laughs* Not bad, Old man.
He joked as Clint smacked his shoulder while laughing, The others smiled and applauded again.
Next up was Alex and Yelena, Yelena moved first, running for a quick roundhouse kick. Alex dodged effortlessly, flipping backwards and using his talons to grab the edge of the wall to steady himself.
Benjamin: Wait! Is that claws-
Alex glared at Benjamin and shot a web at his mouth as McFarland muffled while the others laughed and tried to get the web off his mouth.
Without hesitation, Yelena rolled forward and swept her leg, aiming for Alex's feet. He leaped over her sweep and countered with a web shot, but Yelena twisted mid-air, evading the sticky strands. Alex shot another webline to swing towards and attack her.
Yelena knew what he was doing and rolled to the side and throwing a roundhouse kick that caught Alex mid-swing. He twisted in the air, landing on the ground before springing forward with a low sweep kick.
The two continued fighting while dodging their attacks, Alex surprised Yelena with a judo throw and was about to hit another move but Yelena rolled out of the way and surprised him with a scissors takedown, Alex managed to recover and jumped on the wall before springing back to her with a spinning aerial kick.
Alex and Yelena stood, taking a moment to breathe before the others smiled and applauded again.
Yelena: That was cool.
Alex just nodded and walked away, And next up was going to be Cody and Steve.
Steve lunged first, throwing a quick jab toward Cody's chest. Cody dodged to the side, his reflexes sharp, and swept Steve's legs with a low kick. Steve grunted, rolling backward to regain his footing.
With a quick sprint, Cody dashed in and delivered a spinning heel kick. Steve barely blocked it, but the force of the kick pushed him back a step. Cody followed up with a low roundhouse kick aimed at Steve's knees, forcing him to jump back to avoid being swept.
The fight became intense, they were dodging strikes and surprising each other with own moves, Steve hit a series of punches and kicks while hitting Cody with his shield, Cody stumbled back before turning into ghost rider for a few seconds and kicked Steve with full speed, sending him to the ground as Steve managed to hold on.
She recovered quickly and dashed forward with a high-speed tackle, aiming to take Cody down. But Cody, with a sudden burst of speed, flipped backward, evading the tackle and hit a takedown as the sparring was over.
The others applauded again as Cody slowly transformed back, He was glad that he controlled his powers and didn't do anything reckless, Steve smiled and shared a fist bump with Cody.
Steve: You did great, I won't go easy on you next time.
Cody: *Chuckles* Thanks.
Next up was finally Caleb and Wanda, Caleb swung Mjolnir, sending a controlled lightning bolt, toward her, making sure it wasn't strong enough to destroy anything, However Wanda raised her hand, creating a shield of red energy that absorbed the impact
He returned the favor by striking the ground with the hammer, sending a shockwave through the floor, pushing Wanda back, She levitated and then lifted a few objects from the room and sent them flying gently toward Caleb, who dodged them with ease.
Caleb and Wanda were fighting mid-air as Odinson swinged his hammer towards her, pushing her against the wall, Wanda clenched his fist and shot magic, pushing Caleb away as he clenched his hammer, Wanda used telekinesis and threw a few objects at Caleb, he moved away and gripped his Mjolnir, With a burst of power, he shot forward with full speed, ready to strike, Wanda, her eyes glowing with power, conjured a protective shield just in time to block the incoming blow, the hammer striking the magical barrier with a loud sound, The room almost shaked when that happened.
They both moved away and took a deep breath before smiling as the others applauded with a smile on their face as Wanda spoke.
Wanda: I'm surprised we didn't destroy the room.
Tony: Thankfully, I made the room with a bit of extra. . . durability. But don't get too comfortable. If you two keep going like that, I might need to add a few more upgrades.
They all shared a laugh together as Caleb and Wanda landed on the ground as everyone was talking to each other.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The team gathered around a large table, the smell of freshly made shawarma hit their noses as everyone began eating with excitement.
Yelena: Mmmm, this is delicious.
Anne: I always wanted to try these.
Wanda: I could eat this every day.
Jane: This is the first time i ever had this.
Natasha: Oh, this wasn't the first time i ate it, though.
Clint: Oh yeah, We ate this right after we saved new york
Bruce: That brings back a lot of memories.
Tony: That was a good day
Steve: True, Hey Cody, You already finished your plate?
Cody: *Shrugs* I was hungry.
Caleb: Would you like to share some from mine?
Without hesitation, Cody took a piece from his plate, Caleb raised an eyebrow, not expecting him to take it immediately but he also had a smile on his face.
Caleb: I wasn't expecting you to take it.
Cody: It's food, Who's gonna refuse?
They all shared a laugh together and continued eating as Benjamin had a mischievous idea and shot a web at the lettuce and slapped it on Alex's face, Ambrose's eyes were widen as the others tried to hold their laughter.
Alex: Really?
Benjamin began laughing as Alex was glaring at him while the others laughed as well.
Alex: You're so dead later.
Benjamin: Worth it!
Anne: *Chuckles* These two.
Cody: I really think they might kill each other sooner then later.
Caleb: The next thing we might see is a bunch of webs at the tower.
They continued laughing together, enjoying the funny banter between everyone, As Benjamin continued his funny antics towards Alex, They noticed Bucky walking in, staring everyone, He noticed they were all having a good time and wanted to join them, Tony noticed him and said something.
Tony: Hey! Look who finally decided to show up. Come on, Barnes, grab some shawarma before Cody eats it all.
Bucky glanced at Cody as Keltner glared at Stark while the others laughed, He smiled and looked around for a place to sit, The only seat was next to Anne.
Anne: *Smiles* Sit down.
Natasha: But you better eat fast, Benjamin's about to weaponize the food again.
Barnes sat next to Anne and noticed Benjamin was staring at Alex's plate, thinking about pranking him again.
Bucky: Seems like i walked in at the right time.
He looked at Anne and smiled at her as Winters passed him a plate while smiling back.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later on, Anne washed her hands and dried them with a towel, She walked out and looked around until she felt a little pain in her back, which happened during her sparring session with Natasha.
Anne: Ouch. . . .
Bucky: You okay?
Anne turned around and looked at Bucky who was a bit concerned about her, Anne just nodded while holding her back.
Anne: I'm fine, My back hurts after training, It seems like Nat didn't go easy on me.
She chuckled as Barnes nodded and looked at her.
Bucky: I hope you will get better, but you were really impressive out there, It's like you knew Nat's tricks very well.
Anne: I known her for so long, and i still haven't forgotten how she fights.
She smiled again, Her expression softening.
Anne: Thanks, though. It means a lot coming from you.
Bucky: You're welcome, Just take it easy for a while, though. Don't want you getting hurt worse.
Anne: *Smiles* That's so sweet of you.
Bucky: I try
He chuckled and smiled at her as Anne smiled back, feeling her cheeks warm up as Bucky continued staring at her with admiration, For a moment, they stood feeling an unspoken feeling, Anne walked away as Barnes continued staring at her with a grin on his face.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Natasha: You outdone yourself during training.
Alex: *Smiles* Uhh, thanks. You were awesome as well.
Natasha: I appreciate that. Also, I didn't know you had claws.
Alex: It's part of the suit.
He chuckled as Natasha smiled at him while fixing her hair.
Natasha: That's impressive.
Alex was staring at her with a small smile on his face until he heard Benjamin calling his name, He narrowed his eyes as Natasha laughed.
Natasha: You two seriously need to get along
Alex: *Sighs* I'm trying, but he's like an over-caffeinated spider.
Benjamin: I heard that!
Natasha couldn't help but laugh a little as Alex sighed to himself and walked away as Natasha continued staring at him with a smile on her face.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jane: I was scared that you and Wanda were going to destroy twe training room.
Caleb: We went easy on each other, Otherwise, Stark would have asked us to pay.
Jane couldn't help but laugh as Caleb chuckled while looking at his hammer before looking back at her.
Jane: You really know how to make me laugh.
Caleb: Well, I aim to please. Besides, it's not every day I get to meet someone who appreciates my charm.
Jane laughed again as Caleb was staring at her with a huge smile on his face, admiring her laughter.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yelena: The walking bonfire was quite impressive.
Cody: Walking bonfire? Where do you get these nicknames?
Yelena: *Smiles* Come on, It suits you.
Cody: Okay, Okay, Miss "Not-So-Sneaky," what do you call yourself then?
Yelena: I'm a mystery. You'll just have to figure it out.
Cody: Oh, I love a good challenge.
They both shared a laugh together and began walking away while talking to each other, Cody took a moment to stare at her as a smile creeped up on his face, Yelena looked at him before he looked away and continued speaking to her.
