Chapter 203: Five Times Peter Meets An Avengers & One Time An Avenger Meets Him
Peter was hanging out with Tony in the lab, making blueprints, adding new additions to his suit, and helping Tony with other projects. He had been there about three hours, having to go home soon, as May wanted to go out to dinner to celebrate him getting all A's on his report card. He sighed, waiting on his computer to finish updating, he felt something brush up against his leg. He looked down and saw a cat, which was weird, because none of the team had a pet.
He leaned down and started petting the feline, hearing it pur in delight. He noticed a name tag on the cat, he read it and chuckled at the name. "Nice to meet you Goose, where did you come from?" He picked Goose up and walked out of the lab, roaming the halls, looking to find someone whether it was Tony, or Goose's owner. He went to every room in the compound, but didn't find anyone, that was until he went to the training room. He saw Steve sparring with a woman, she had blonde hair, and was keeping up with him.
All of a sudden the wall next to him had a hole, he jumped and looked towards them then back to the adults who were staring back at him. He held the cat close to his chest, and a voice yelled, "MY WALL?!" The three of them whipped their heads towards the door seeing Tony, red in the face, Peter could almost see the steam coming out of the older man's ears.
"I didn't do it this time Mr. Stark!" Peter exclaimed.
"CAROL! YOU RUINED MY WALL!" He shouted, at the woman Peter now knew as Carol.
"Sorry Stark, you can fix it right?" She asked.
Tony pinched the bridge of his nose. "That's not the point E.T, you destroyed my wall. No one is allowed to use their powers in the training room."
Carol turned to Peter, "Oh, my apologies. And hey you found Goose!"
Peter smiled sheepishly, "Uh yeah, he found me in the lab."
Carol smiled, "He seems to like you, he's not that cuddly with anyone." Peter smiled at that, he's never owned a pet before so the fact that Goose was warming up to him so easily was awesome.

"Are you sure we should be doing this Mr. Stark? I've never been so far away from New York before." Peter asked, nervousness lacing his voice.
Tony nodded his head, as the two exited the quinjet, "Underoos, it's fine. May knows where we are, don't worry." The two walk up to his royal highness himself, King T'challa and his sister Princess Shuri, alongside Okoyé the general of the Dora Milagé. He was extremely nervous, this was the first time he was ever meeting royalty in his life. So he wanted to make a good impression, "Hello Mr. Stark, welcome to Wakanda. This is my sister Shuri, and General Okoyé." The King greeted.
Tony gave a nod of respect, "Hello King T'challa, thank you for inviting us. This is my intern Peter Parker." Shuri stepped forward in front of Peter holding her hand out for him to shake.
"I heard you like to build things, and that you're a huge fan of the Star Wars franchise. I've got items to make our own lightsabers." Peter was immediately hooked at that, she had his full, undivided attention. Giving T'challa a smirk, Shuri made Peter follow her, and the two of them walked all the way to her lab, Tony and T'challa in tow.
"Should we do something before they blow up the lab?" Tony asked, knowing his kid's habits.
T'challa shook his head, "Don't worry Mr. Stark, Shuri has protocols set incase anything happens." The teens worked tirelessly hard while T'challa and Tony took a tour, while Okoyé kept an eye on them. And soon enough, their lightsabers were complete, Peter's was blue, like Master Obi-Wan Kenobi's while Shuri's was red like Darth Vader's; she was definitely the most chaotic of the both of them.
It was beginning to get dark outside and Peter had to leave with Tony, T'challa, Shuri, and Okoyé sent them off with a farewell as the man and boy aboard the quinjet, taking off into the sky. Shuri remarked to her brother, "I like Peter, we can actually converse scientifically."

Peter's day was pretty good for once, he and Ned were working out the means to get a new lego set, him and MJ were planning a date, and Tony said he had a surprise for him. He hoped it wasn't a car, not after the disastrous joy-ride that was Flash's dad's car on homecoming night. He got to the Tower greeting F.R.I.D.A.Y with his usual chipper 'hello!' Before making his way to Tony's lab, that's where he always was, and if he wasn't there, he'd be wherever a nearby coffee machine was. He opened the door and walked in, but he didn't see Tony, but he saw another man, who wore glasses and was writing an equation on the whiteboard.
He spoke out to him, "Uh, hello?" The man turned towards the teen with a confused expression on his face.
"Who are you?" He asked, except Peter knew exactly who it was, the adult male standing in front of him was none other than Dr. Bruce Banner.
Peter was stunned, "Oh my god you're.."
"The Hulk, yeah I know. Don't worry I'm not going to transform."
Peter collected his thoughts, "I meant to say you're Dr. Banner! I've read all of your books on gamma radiation, they're all incredibly fascinating."
Bruce looked shocked for a moment, the two heard the door open, it was Tony. "Oh hey kid, I see you've met Bruce. Bruce, this is my intern Peter Parker, he's a huge fan of yours." Tony introduced.
"Right, Tony's told me a lot about you. He says you're really smart."
Peter's cheeks became red, "Really? I mean, I.. I guess so. I like building stuff, and science."
"Would you like to help me with this project?" Bruce questioned gesturing to his side of the lab where everything was set up, it was a lot more organized than Tony's area. Peter shyly nodded his head and went to help the doctor, he couldn't believe he was working with the two men he's idolized his whole life.

Upon entering the tower, something felt off, he didn't know what the deal was, but it was weird. He set his bag on the kitchen counter, setting out his homework, and starting it, his AP calculus worksheet was something he'd ace. As he quietly did his work, he realized he needed to grab a snack, fast metabolism and all, so he went to the cabinet and grabbed the jar of peanut butter, then over to the fruit basket for an apple. He reached for the fruit and brought it back to his seat at the island.
Setting it down, he got a knife, and was ready to cut it, he brought the blade down before a voice screamed, "DON'T CUT THE APPLE!" He looked up confused, no one was in the kitchen, he shook it off and went back to cutting the apple. But of course, Peter didn't get to, because the voice he heard amplified, and then a grown person appeared. Making him jump onto the ceiling, he turned to see Ant-Man, better known as Scott Lang.
"WHAT THE HECK DUDE?!" He yelled.
Scott held his arms up in surrender, "Sorry kid! Clint tasked me with observing you! Just pretend this didn't happen, I'm Scott Lang by the way. My daughter Cassie loves your alter ego."
"Nice to meet you too? And that's cool, I'd very much like to forget this entire thing." Scott gave him a thumbs up, and went up into the vents on the ceiling. "That was the weirdest interaction I've ever had." Peter thought.

Peter was up once again at one in the morning, just having had an awful nightmare. Unable to fall back asleep, so he decided to go into the kitchen and make a warm glass of milk. He quietly stalked out of his room, and to the kitchen, grabbing a mug from the cupboard and pouring milk in it. Before popping it in the microwave, he leaned against the counter, watching as the timer counted down. He sighed, hoping the milk would do something and lull the effects of nightmares away.
As he waited, his hearing picked up the sound of mechanical wiring, he turned towards the hallway and a figure appeared. They came out from the shadows, and Peter recognized him almost immediately, the metal arm gave it away. "Hello Mr. Barnes." He greeted in a hushed tone. Bucky looked at him and nodded, Peter guessed that was his way of saying something without talking.
The microwave beeped and Peter went to grab his mug, noticing Bucky's stand-offish demeanor. He was quiet, the teen could tell when a person has had a nightmare, at least the aftermath anyway. Although Peter didn't blame him, nightmares sucked, he took out another mug filling it with milk and heating it up in the microwave before turning to the man. Again, the microwave beeped and Peter grabbed Bucky's glass, heading to him and sitting down on the couch next to him. "I like your arm by the way, it's really cool." He said.
Bucky took his mug, raising it to his lips, "Thanks, you're Tony's kid right?"
"You're welcome, and no, I'm Mr. Stark's intern." Peter replied.
"Ah, I see." The two sat in silence, occasionally taking sips of their drinks.
"Why'd you make me a cup of milk?"
Peter glanced at Bucky, "Simple hospitality sir, and I can tell when someone's had a nightmare. They suck."
Bucky nodded, "Yeah, they do."
"I know we don't know each other all that well. Nice to meet you by the way, but if you ever need to talk, we can meet here in secret." Bucky agreed to that, and thanked Peter once again for the drink and then the two went to their respective rooms to fall asleep.

At six years old, Peter loved being with his dad and meeting his superhero teammates. The Avengers had just gotten back from a long mission, Peter ran into Tony's arms, hiding his face in the crook of Tony's neck and hugging him tight. It'd been two weeks since he left for the mission, and he was happy for him to be home. After being away for so long, Tony had promised him a Star Wars marathon and boatloads of ice cream.
But first, he had to say hi to Auntie Natasha, Uncle Steve, Uncle Clint, and finally meet Thor. Tony walked over to the God of Thunder catching his attention, the man turned to face him and Peter. "Oh hello Stark, who is this little one?" He asked.
Peter giggled in response, "Hi Mr. Thor! I'm Peter!"
Thor grinned, "Why hello Peter! It is very nice to meet you, how are you today?"
"I'm good! Daddy and I are going to watch movies and eat ice cream!" The boy exclaimed.
"Wow! That sounds like great fun! Unfortunately, I can't stay long. I have to go back to Asgard." Thor replied.
"But you'll come back right?" Peter asked, with a hopeful glint in his eye.
"Of course I will, It also seems like I have misplaced Mjölnir." Tony and the team began to look for the weapon, of course not being able to lift it as they weren't worthy, but no one could find it. That is until Peter came walking into the living room.
"Here you go Mr. Thor! I found your hammer!" Peter said, raising the weapon towards Thor.
"Son of Stark is worthy!" Thor exclaimed, taking Mjölnir from him as a confused Peter stared up at his father.
Tony shook his head, "No, my six year old child isn't ruling your realm Point Break." Once everyone left Tony did a celebratory dance and would brag about his son wielding Mjölnir to anyone who would listen.
