Avengers High School

Where's Natasha When You Need Her?

[Thor, Tony, Steve, Bruce, Clint, and Loki sat down at the lunch table the next day]

Tony: (Pulls out his lunchbox) Hey, Everybody.

Thor: Hello, Stark.

Steve: Hey, Tony.

(Bruce and Clint wave at him)

Loki: Greetings, Tony.

Tony: Brucey, got me covered for today?

Bruce: Yep. (Passes him a tuna fish sandwich)

Tony: (Takes it) Thanks, Bud.

Steve: (Frowns, looking around)...Huh.

Thor: (looks at Steve) What is troubling you, Captain?

Clint: Is that bully messing with you again?

Tony: I thought I told that Lucas freak to stay away.

Steve: It's not that.

Loki: Then what is it? Not that I care.

Steve: Well, I was just wondering if we were missing somebody.

Bruce: (Looks around the table) Wait, yeah. I think we are.

Clint:....Natasha?

Thor: You are correct. Where is our lady spider?

(All of them look at Loki)

Loki: (Looks up, slowly)...Um...What are you all staring at me?

Steve: What did you do to Natasha?

Loki: Nothing.

Tony: You're the only one that would do something to her.

Loki: That is true, but I did nothing to her, so leave me alone.

Thor: Something tells me that my brother is not lying.

Steve: So then, where's Nat?

Bruce: She was here this morning, right?

Tony: Yeah. I think so...

Clint: (Pulls out his phone) I'll text her and ask her where she is.

Tony: She better be here.

Clint: Why? So you can kiss her and sleep beside her?

(Tony raises an eyebrow)

Clint: Yeah. I know you slept in her room last night. Hill doesn't keep everything to herself. (Texts Natasha)

Thor: What if she does not answer in time?

Clint: She will.

Steve: True...her phone is attached to her 24/7.

Loki: You guys should just leave Natasha alone.

Bruce: No.

Steve: (To Loki) Yeah, because we care about her. Unlike you.

(Loki rolls his eyes)

Clint: (Looks at his phone) Oh, she texted back.

Tony: What did she reply?

Clint: She said: Went back to base. Not feeling well.

Steve: Oh no! She's sick? Is there anything she wants me to do? I can buy some medicine or something for her to drink. Maybe I'll get her some water if she's dehydrated. Or maybe Gatorade.

Tony: Rogers, calm down.

Bruce: Yeah. And don't get her Gatorade. That's one of the worst drinks to give a dehydrated person. Gatorade is filled with salt, which does not give them the water that they need.
