Simple Life

Avengers Pov

The avengers had just defeated Loki and his grand scheme to rule Earth. Loki was cuffed and had his mouth covered.

They escorted him to the elevator before Hulk was comically displeased with having to take the stairs.

In the elevator things, we're quite as they were still attempting to process what they had just experienced.

Tony was the first to break the ice "So did S.H.I.E.L.D know about Theodore"

"If we did, we wouldn't have panicked so much," Said Clint referring to how he easily dealt with most of the invasion.

"He's a good man," Said Steve confidently

"Thanks, old man but we need some proper information on the man who just dealt with an army of aliens. Jarvis can you really not find anything else about Theodore Hunt" Said, Tony

"No, Sir Mr Hunt is nothing but a father and a writer" Said Jarvis through the elevator's speakers

"Hey Cap, why do you think he's a good man," Said, Jennifer with a glint in her eyes

"When you have my experience you meet a lot of people. Most of those people are just civilians trying to live normally. From Mr Hunt, I saw a civilian and a father. Information is good but sometimes you need to rely on your gut" Said Steve while reminiscing his army days

"Sir, Mr Hunt has sent an invitation for the Avengers for dinner," Said Jarvis

"Let's go!" Said Jennifer excitedly

The others gave her a speculative glance with Natasha nodding in agreement.

"I mean, let's go and gather information on him," Said Jennifer while avoiding their eyes

"What time?" Said, Tony ignoring the obvious lie

They disappeared from the elevator before hearing a voice "Now,"

Theodore was in his Manhattan home. When he bought the building it was a rundown little cafe that had living space upstairs.

Tiled dirty black floors, red dirty couches with light cracked wooden tables and chairs. A wooden counter with a kitchen in the back. One grimy toilet for customers.

Upstairs there were three bedrooms, one bathroom all of which were small and damp and had mould building up in corners.

He had the construction bots that built the skate park first strip and clean the place up. He then had Daisy find him a large underground base or bunker.

Daisy found an old abandoned military bunker in Ireland the size of a football pitch.

The first thing he did was have the place cleaned then give it some proper lighting.

The place became an empty concrete space filled with pillars.

Moved the supercomputer from his room to one side of the room. Then he got to work turning the place into a child-friendly Bat cave.

He divided the whole place into two parts with a thick wall. One side was his Batcave while the other side was just a place to entertain Rose and Chloe

In the entertainment area, he changed the concrete flooring to wooden floorboards with heating underneath it.

He created a small dojo section that had soft flooring with punching bags, dummies, etc

In one section was a dance studio that had walls covered in large mirrors with equipment and a box of costumes.

Another section was a small kids obstacle course with a ball pit.

He added a small seating room with a long L-shaped sofa, a small tea table, 60-inch flat-screen TV, a large rug and a classy wood burning fireplace.

Behind the L-shaped couch were bookshelves filled with self-learning books and storybooks.

For his little base. It had plenty of space to test new inventions, glass casings, and a workbench.

The glass casings were filled with numerous weapons and outfits.

And of course the unnecessarily big screen with other smaller screens around it for the supercomputer.

On the side was a big metallic dome that could be seen to be a gravity room.

It might seem a little inconvenient to have a place like this in another area but with his space, he can directly make a portal that is flush with a wall in the home.

Walking through it you don't experience any discomfort but you will still be able to understand that it's too big to be inside a small building of Manhattan.

Their Manhattan home went through the same changes. From the run-down cafe to the warm comfortable restaurant.

The walls were stripped down to show a red brick wall. The floor was changed to a grey marble with dark brown wooden chairs and tables.

A dark hardwood counter with a grey marble top. The kitchen wasn't closed off but visible to the shops front. In addition, he made sure to have four washrooms.

Three of them being the typical Male and Female, disabled while the last one was for babies.

Upstairs it changed from three rooms to two large rooms. A large bathroom. The kids shared a room while Theodore had a room to his self.

The building runs on its own self-sustained energy and the water comes directly from a spring he found on skate park island.

For security, an invisible energy barrier surrounded the whole building from top to bottom this meant even the ground it stood.

He opened a portal at the back of the kitchen which led to the seating room. He did the same thing with a hallway upstairs.

The girls had not seen the house so when they woke up in a new room wit their toy box on the side and there teddy's next to them they quickly stepped out looking for their dad.

"DAD!!! DADDY!!" Shouted The Girls fearfully with tears in their eyes.

Theodore had just returned from the helping with the Invasion and sat on the couch watching the Avengers deal with the rest while sipping on a can of coke.

He heard the girls scream and choked before making them appear in front of him. He pulled them into a hug.

"Daddy!" Said The girls while crying in his arms

Theodore wiped their tear and with a warm smile he said "Its okay dad won't ever leave you again"

*Sniff, Sniff* They cried louder hearing his words

After a straight minute of tears, Rose lifted her head and looked around with streams of tears going down her face.

"Wow, is this our house. the roof is high, Wow such a big T.V let go, dad, Let me walk around" Said Rose with an excited smile.

Chloe looked up hearing her sisters comment and said "Wow so many books"

Chloe and Rose walked around commenting "Eeeeek!! Look, Chloe, a ball pit let's play" said Rose

"Rose, Rose look mirrors," Said Chloe

"Wow, Chloe we have a shop" Said Rose

"Dad what are you watching Oh wow is that Iron Man" Said Rose who came back and sat on the couch with Theodore

Chloe stood in front of the TV and pointed to Natasha while asking "Who is she"

"That's Black Widow she's on the same team as Iron Man, look they are fighting the aliens," Said Theodore as Natasha wrapped her legs around Chitaur head before stabbing her knife into its neck.

They sat down and watched as the Avengers fought back. They saw She-Hulk, Hulk and Thor took on as many as possible.

The kids had officially gained become fans of the Avengers. Chloe personally liked Natasha and Rose liked She-Hulk.

They watched everything through the eyes of the robotic bugs live video feed.

They watched up to the part where they were in the elevator where they heard their dads name and asked "Hey can we meet them"

"They must be very busy," Said Theodore

"Ask them," Said, Rose and Chloe

"Okay, Daisy invite the Avengers for dinner," Said Theodore

They saw how Jennifer jumped at the invite immediately after Tonya asked when Theodore replied with moving them to the shop front and said "Now"

Hulk had also appeared on one side looking around with his usual angry face.

Theodore disappeared from behind the counter and appeared in front of Hulk, and said "Calm down Hulk. You're at my place. What you wanna eat"

Hulk huffed his chest out and said with a loud groaning tone "Meat!"

"Good, what about you guys," Said Theodore while looking at the others

"What's on the menu," Asked Tony while pulling up a chair

"Name it and I'll make it," Said Theodore confidently while strolling towards the counter.

"Your best alcohol, it's a day to celebrate." Said, Thor with great enthusiasm.

"We'll have your fattest beefy cheeseburger you can make, with fries," Said Tony

Theodore stood behind the counter ready to cook before feeling a tug on his trousers. Looking down he saw Chloe and Rose hide behind his legs.

Theodore chuckled before picking them up in his arms and introducing them "These are my daughters Rose and Chloe. They have just become fans of yours"

"Mrs Walters and Mrs Romanoff if you could" Asked Theodore with a suggestive voice

"Hello Rose and Chloe," Said Natasha and Jennifer while sticking their hands out.

"HelLO!" Said Rose passionately while shaking Jennifer's hand

"He-Hi-llo," Said Chloe with a cute stutter that led to her combination of Hi and Hello.

Chloe shook Natasha's hand nervously barely being able to make eye contact.

"Dad let me down I wanna meet the others," said Rose as she wiggled out of Theodore's hold

Chloe also got out of Theodore's hug but she was too shy to approach the others.

Rose grabbed Chloe's nervously shaking hands and said "Let's go, Chloe,"

Chloe felt a little more confident as she gave a difficult nod and let her self be pulled along.

"Wait, where's Loki," Said Steve while going into his fighting stance which the others followed on.

"He's in the back," Said Theodore while stepping to the side to show Loki out cold in the corner of the kitchen.

"Okay, careful he's. . . ." Said, Clint uneasily before Theodore cut in and said "The God of Mischief Loki, right"

"Don't worry, If he makes even the slightest movement I'll know" Said Theodore

"Hi, Mr Iron Man I'm Rose and this is my sister, Chloe dad said we're Twix's," Said Rose while looking at the armour

"Twins, Hello Iron Man," Said Chloe quietly

They introduced themselves to others before getting Hulk. Hulk stood awkwardly in the corner due to not being able to sit down.

Hulk attempted to smile but it only made him look cunning. The kids weren't fazed by his large and domineering stature.

"Wow, you're so big, look Chloe his pinky is bigger than me," Said Rose while jumping around Hulk

"Wow," Said Chloe with her hands over her mouth

Theodore was busy looking for the necessary Ingredients. While looking he asked "Any questions"

"Yes, how did we get here, was that technology or a mutant ability," Asked Tony while taking photos of the shop

"Nah, I'm not a mutant and it's not tech either," Said Theodore

"Who developed the energy barrier used to protect the city," Asked Tony

"Well, it was actually first developed by a rural country in Africa. I refined it to be more flexible than just a dome" Said Theodore

"Dad, can you help Hulk, he's too big to sit down" Shouted Rose

Theodore turned around and Rose and Chloe sat in Hulk's open hand as slowly swung it back and forth like he was a swing set.

"Thanks for taking care of them big guy, here take this as a gift," Said, Theodore as he threw a platinum bracelet in his direction.

It flew at Hulk and attached itself to his large wrist. Hulk gave shouted in anger "Roar"

Theodore had already removed the kids from his vicinity as he knew Hulk might get startled.

From the platinum bracelet, a discharge of electricity ran up his arm and through his body.

"Roar" Shouted Hulk as he attempts to rip the bracelet off.

Before he got the chance to, Hulk began to shrink to the hight of a ten-year-old kid.

Hulk looked up at the other Avenger and said with rough tone "Huh?"

"How?" Said Tony excitedly

"It's the combination of technology and martial arts," Said Theodore simply while shaping patties.

The bracelet was programmed to do what his Seimei Kikan (Life Return) does but instead of moving fat it condenses the radioactive energy that is in Hulk.

Theodore had already taken a blood sample from Hulk to understand his powers better but In the end, he was only able to condense its growth.

He easily took Hulks blood by simply having it teleported to him.

"Go, you can play with Hulk," Said Theodore to Rose and Chloe who ran at Hulk happily

Thor looked at small Hulk with a teasing smile.

To which Hulk responded by raising an angry fist.

"If you break anything in this shop, I will personally punch both of you into the ground," Said Theodore while speedily cutting onions and lettuce.

Hulk gave discouraged huff as Thor just laughed it off.

The Avenger sat quietly eyeing their surrounding making sure to be ready of an attack or trap. They looked at their host and watched him cook.

Theodore's image began to blur as he moved at an inhuman speed. He was everywhere in the kitchen.

The Avengers watched in awe before they smell a divine sent that seduced their very being.

The fragrance flowed through the air carrying a tremendous amount of pure culinary art that could not be found anywhere else.

They had forgotten about their initial goal as their stomachs did all the thinking and speaking.

"I'd like to order 40 servings for myself," Cried Jennifer in a pleading voice.

"100 for me," Said, Thor while licking his lips

"2 here," Said, Natasha while appearing to keep her cool as her eyes glistened with hunger

"20" Said Steve

"5 and how much to be my personal chef" Said Tony

"I'll take 5 with onion rings," Said Clint

Hulk gave a mighty shout "MEAT!"

The kids were also hungry and shouted "MEAT"
