My Little Pony: Equestria's Mightiest Heroes
Secret Avengers
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe next morning, Cap woke up the rest of the Avengers and explained the events that would take place that day. He explained who Twilight Sparkle was, that someone would be helping them fit in, and that they would be finding jobs to help pay for their stay. They then got ready, and headed out to wait for the Twilight and the other pony.
It was not long before Twilight and a gray pony with a purple mane and tail arrived at the entrance of the inn.
“Oh my! What are you wearing? You cannot be dressed like that! Clothes like that should be reserved for… never. Minus you,” The gray pony said pointing at Thor. “You should only wear yours for formal occasions. Go back to your rooms and take that off!”
“This is Rarity. She is quite picky when it comes to clothing.” Twilight said, giving Rarity a look.
“Wait. You guys don’t wear anything, at all?” Cap said, very visibly blushing.
“Hast thou lost thine sense of sight, Friend Rogers?” Thor quipped towards Cap, “These creatures have travelled nude since—“
“Ah yes, Twilight said you weren’t from around here…” Rarity said, cutting Thor off mid-sentence in her slightly annoyed, southern belle sort of way. The Asgardian prince narrowed his gaze on the gray pony, “But that is no excuse for bad fashion, now away, and change out of those clothes.”
The Avengers returned to their rooms and awkwardly disrobed.
“Thanks for not shouting at the one who interrupted you.” Cap expressed his gratitude to Thor. This was the first time Cap had not been exasperated by the Asgardian.
“Aye, however if she is brazen enough to do so again I will have to scold her, and hammer my point in.” Thor said with a hearty chuckle. The other Avengers stared at Thor blankly for a few moments.
“Dammit Thor!” Tony said, breaking the awkward silence. They returned to the two ponies in front of the inn, Thor still with his hammer and Cap with his shield.
As they returned, Twilight noticed just how odd they actually were. Apart from their odd names, they had a good amount of strange accessories. The one named Tony Stark had a light on his chest, and Rogers and Thor both still had their weapons. A couple of their cutiemarks were also quite bizarre. Tony’s seemed normal enough. Twilight assumed his two gears meant he was good with technology, like the mechanics on the trains. Hank Pym’s was a collection of insects, Twilight would have to talk to Fluttershy about that one. Janet’s was a mannequin. Twilight knew where she would be working for a while. Bruce Banner’s was odd. It was like Pinkie Pie’s, but the balloons were all pierced and leaking air. Twilight had no clue what this meant, and didn’t really want to find out. Captain Rogers’ was a flag that Twilight didn’t recognize. It was red and white striped, with a field of blue filled with stars. The flag looked as if it were blowing in a breeze from the front of the Captain. Thor’s however was the most peculiar. His cutiemark was an oak tree from early spring starting from just above his knee that climbed up to his flank. The top of his cutiemark was a cloud spewing lightning, all in front of a faded, but visible rainbow bolt shooting out of a golden city. Twilight made a note to ask about that later.
“Well, based on your cutiemarks, I think I can find some work for a couple of you. I will have to speak with the rest of you.” Twilight began, “Rarity, would you please take Janet to your place, her cutiemark seems like it would fit well with yours.”
“Oh my! I hadn’t even noticed that!” Rarity exclaimed. “Yes, we can get started right away! This should be so exciting! Somepony else who appreciates fashion!” Rarity exclaimed again as she and Jan ran toward Rarity’s dress shop.
“This is going to be such fun!” Jan screamed in excitement.
“HEY! We appreciate fashion too!” Twilight yelled after Rarity. Turning back to the others, she looked toward Hank, “You’ll be working with Fluttershy, but we’ll have to take you there. She is pretty shy about these things. Thor, you can work with Rainbow Dash, I believe you met her last night. She lives over in that cloud. You can fly up there, she is probably still asleep. Wake her up and tell her I sent you and that you two are to work together.”
“Aye.” Thor stated as he gripped Mjolnir’s leather strap in his teeth and spun it up, taking off toward the cloud Twilight directed him to. Both Cap and Twilight found this odd given the fact that Thor had wings. Twilight began to speak, however Cap cut her off by shaking his head and telling her not to ask in an exasperated voice.
“Right… Aaaaaand the rest of you. What are your skills? What can you do?” Twilight asked the remaining assembled Avengers.
“Well, I don’t like to brag, but I am an expert on technology.” Tony stated. “I built the armor I was wearing, to save my life.”
“Riiiiiiiiiiight, the rest of you?” Twilight continued.
“I am not opposed to doing labor intensive work.” Cap stated.
“Excellent, head to the orchard to the north of town and tell the pony in the hat that I sent you to help. Her name is Applejack.” Twilight told Cap.
“Thank you ma’am.” Cap said as he ran off.
“And you Bruce?”
“I am an expert in gamma radiation, but I am assuming that that is not a massively required field here?” Bruce said jokingly.
“I don’t know what that is, but I’m sure Pinkie Pie could use your help!” Twilight said rather confused.
“Alright, Gingerbread house?” Banner asked.
“It is a place called Sugarcube Corner, but yeah, it is the gingerbread house.” Twilight answered.
“Alright. Thank you.” Banner said as he trotted off.
“And Tony, you can work with me! I am sure you have some questions, and I have some as well. After we take Hank to meet Fluttershy, we can begin.” Twilight explained.
“Awesome. If I may, while working, could I use your place to make some adjustments to my armor, and do you know anybody with thumbs?” Tony asked as the trio headed towards Fluttershy’s cabin.
“What is a thumb?” Twilight asked.
“I’ll explain later” Tony replied.
