I woke to the surprise of food not burning and tried to get up fast so the food wouldn't go to waste. "Dad I'm going to intervene before you burn anything."
"Actually I just picked something up, we have to eat fast if we're going to meet your team, also I got a call from Nat she says they were able to find twins a year older then you, the problem is they don't want to seem like they're picking favorites with who gets what job so when you meet them figure out what they're skills are and give them info on what job would suit them best." I was told "ok so when do we have to get going?"
"Like half a hour."
"Shoot, I can skip the shower today, I'm going to go get dressed before eating" I said while rushing back to my room and grabbed a pair of jeans, a hoodie and a Yankees baseball cap.
Once I was all dressed I ran back into the kitchen and garbed an egg and sausage sandwich, which I had to eat fast since it took me awhile to get dressed. Once we were both finished I put my Yankees hat on backwards and we headed for the motorcycle.
"Why'd you put your hat on backwards?"
"Well it's to keep the hat from flying off, the wind would've pushed the visor on the hat and putting it on backwards prevents that from happening."
"Seems smart, but we really have to rush" he said slightly speeding up as we reached the garage
After a speedy ride to the avengers tower, we finally arrived. "You nervous?" He asked me. "Well why wouldn't I be, I'm meeting people who I probably don't even know who I'm going to have to lead into battle with out lives at stake."
"Hey it'll be fine and in the future if you get killed, walk it off." He joked
"Gee thanks I really need to hear me being killed." I replied sarcastically
"Sorry about that but we should head in, don't want to keep your little avengers waiting."
"Ugh I hate our group name, it makes us sound five." I stated
"I didn't come up with it, but we really shouldn't keep your team mates waiting." He said walking towards the building.
By the time I caught up he was already in the building. After a short ride up the elevator my heart was racing, I knew one day these people I was about to meet we're going to be lead into battle by me, and if these people don't learn to trust me, we'll all crash and burn. "They're right in there I'll be in the other room if you need me. We should finish up business in an hour."
"Ok see you soon." My heart rate got a whole lot faster when I touched the doorknob as if I were up next for a playing test. Once the door was open three pairs of eyes fell on me. The twins, the girl with her long light auburnish hair up in a ponytail, I've also noticed one of her eyes was green while the other was blue. She wore a purple shirt with a jacket, leggings and combat like boots. Her twin had the same hair color and had green eyes. He wore a black hoodie with a blue shirt under it, a pair of jeans and casual sneakers. Finally the bitch I already knew. Brandon, he had his blonde hair in the bowl haircut style, dark blue eyes and wore a yellow shirt, jeans and sneakers. "Hey orphan what are you doing here?"
"Well excuse me if I do recall I was adopted before you."
"Yeah wait till you're back in the orphanage."
"Well you little-"
"Lace!" The guy screamed at his sister
I flung myself at Brandon while the girl who I presumed was named Lace pushed me back against the wall while I was trying to break out of their grip. We had to stay like that until I calmed down "jeez you're strong, I'm surprised you didn't break our grip." Lace commented. "Eh my birth parents experimented on me when I was little, so I'm a super soldier in training."
"Heh looks like I've got a new name for you Lab Rat." Brandon snarked
"Yeah if she attacks you we're not holding her back again, do you even know how hard it is to hold back an angry girl who wants to rip your face off, let alone an angry super soldier girl who wants to rip your face off." Lace's twin argued
"Thank you and what's your name?" I asked
"Toby, and I guess my last name is Barton now.." He trailed off
"Oh I need to learn both of your skills, your parents want me to pick who does what job."
"Well I'm an actor, good in gym and usually the class clown."
"And I'm good at math and science and stuff like that." Lace said
"And I don't give a shit about any of this." Brandon cut in
"Ok who made the bad choice of adopting you?" I snarked
"The one and only Tony Stark."
"Great..... An egomaniac adopts an egomaniac, what could go wrong?" I said sarcastically
"Aww what's wrong still mad about the bruises I gave you last week
"Sorry to burst your bubble, but you do realize I'm going to be the one giving orders."
Thankfully the hour passed quickly and my dad appeared in the door way. I wanted to get away from Brandon as soon as possible, I didn't want to deal with him. "How's your team?" He asked me "ehh Toby and Lace are cool, they seem to know how serious this job is, and I already knew and hated Brandon."
"Who adopted him and why don't you like him?"
"Remember last week when I was being beat up, he was one of them, to think we were best friends when we were little..."
