rosie, carol and i sat huddled to discuss tactics. "so what's the plan?"
"listen, you didn't hear this from me, but within the first round of the game, we should get an idea of where people land. for the rest of the game, they will be less likely to land on the property either side" me and carol were staring at the pink haired girl curiously "part of this game is due to luck, but if we're able to pick out those properties, we should be able to see the best cards to buy. obviously we'll aim to get entire sets, but once getting houses, we have to balance them, but putting an extra house on the property landed on most frequently, that will give us the big buck" she was whispering so loud we could hardly hear her with our ears next to her "sorry, certain spider boy with heightened senses is why i'm talking so quietly."
"okay, so we've got a plan" carol stated "hands in" me and rosie followed her command
"do we need a team name?" rosie questioned
"i feel like we should" i stated
"what would our team name possibly be"carol stated
"okay guess we dont need a team name" i replied, still smiling as were me and carol.
"as i was going to say...3...2...1...TEAM" carol exclaimed as we flung our arms in the air, joining the other teams at the monopoly bored.
we won, we won so hard and so fast people thought we cheated. i'm not sure if rosies brain assisting us was cheating, but as long as we were winning. carol was dancing victoriously, as i noticed rosie look slightly upset.
"hey, are you okay?" i whispered to her
"did i upset them?" she asked, her tone sincere
"they're just saw losers" she nodded slowly before turning to the group. she saw wanda smiling at her and smiled back. they were in there own bubble separate from the squabbles of the other teams, i noticed that natasha was admiring the pair and smiled at her. after about 10 minutes of arguing, it was time for a second game. this time scrabble.
once again we huddled "please tell me your english brain is as good as your maths brain" carol said cautiously to the girl, to which she just nodded, smiling slightly. we all sat around the board letters in hand. me and carol didn't even have to touch the tiles for the first half of the game as rosie racked up points. this was before tony bursted our bubble "no more words for you rosie" rosie looked at the man in shock before carol decided to argue it "your just angry your randomly assigned teams didn't work in your favour" she stated
"i'm angry you got the one with the dictionary in her head" and rosie and i just washed, i could tell she was getting more upset as she leaned into me slightly. i wrapped my arms around her as the argument started to involve other people. "i really dont mind sitting the rest of scrabble out" she said but everyone was shouting too loud to hear you. "they aren't angry at you rosie, just jealous you aren't on they're team. dont worry okay" she nodded "then why do i feel like i'm cheating?"
"just because your smarter than them, doesn't mean your cheating" the shouting continued for atleast 5 minutes
"i feel like i'm an object" rosie muttered to me, before i decided to step in. "OKAY EVERYONE SHUT UP RIGHT NOW!" is shouted loud enough so i was above all there voices. they all fell into silence "1.rosie doesnt mind sitting the rest of this game out if all of your huge egos cant handle a 15 year old being smarter than you, carol and i can beat all your asses on our own anyway " this caused rosie to start smiling a bit
"and 2. you guys aren't talking about rosie as if shes first of all sitting right her" rosie offered the group a small wave "and second of all an actual person, so tony's going to apologise to rosie and then we are going to continue playing scrabble, minus rosie" and with that tony apologised and we finished scrabble. me and carol were still able to win, rosie having done most of the heavy lifting.

"okay time for training gear, lets get physical" tony stated. i saw natasha shoot tony a look that could kill, before recalling both wanda and rosie had been sick just this morning. me and carol shot each other a look as rosie and wanda did the same.
"i swear to god tony, if this is some thing for you to even have a chance of getting a win, i will have your head"
"its all in good spirit red, right guys" a murmur of agreeances echoed: everyone in our 'how did we get here' group chat as well as rosie and wanda staying silent. "you know what fine tony, but you better not come down in a fucking robot suit"
"that's not fair?" tony stated
"and why is that?"
"because, i'm not a strong as you guys"
"should've trained harder, you wear the robot suit, your kicked out of your own game night" natasha stated, venom lacing her tone. tony just sighed as we all went up to get changed.
rosie returned meeting up with hope and carol. she was wearing a shirt which was too big and a pair of shorts, which looked as if they were 3 years old "dont judge, my other training stuff was in the wash" her normal smile had vanished from her face and she appeared somewhat disheartened. "what's up kid?" carol asked noticing her expression
" i feel like i'm not gonna be able to offer you guys peak rosie for the contest, and i know nat texted you earlier, she wasn't hiding her phone screen well"
"i'm sure it will be fine, we've got carol"
"yeah but its gonna be no powers if its no tin suit"
"we'll be fine guys, can't lose hope yet".
"you guys are aware steve and thor are on the same team" rosie bought to light
"shit" they muttered simultaneously, being the first group in the room. the rest of the teams shortly joined them.

"okay we are going to do 3 v 3 fights until 1 team is left standing". i could visibly see rosie become more upset at mention of fighting. "first up is team 1 and team 5, on top of team 3 and 4" we took a deep breath standing huddled at the edge of the large training map. luckily for us, bruce was sitting this part of the contest out, so we had a slightly higher chance against the norse god and the super soldier. "rosie, i've heard you can take out steve with ease, show him your worse, hope, your with me on goldilocks" and just like that the whistle blew to begin.

both fights were off to an intense start. with team 3 and team 4, no powers meant that wanda was easily pinned by nat and sam sat on top of scott. all 4 watched as peter and valkyrie fought it out, until 1 knee where the sun doesn't shine, causing peter to fall to the floor. sam and nat jumped into action, which inevitably lead to wanda and scott standing once more. as a result of this, the tides turned giving team 3 the upper hand. they pinned all 3 to the ground before turning to the ongoing fight on the other mat.
rosie was currently pinning steve to the ground as maria and carol fought thor "you guys sure you dont need any help, we can switch out if you want" rosie suggested to the two women currently trying to take down a god. rosie knew that if someone took one swing to his left knee right now, he'd probably be out for the count, however if she shared that with the rest of her teammates, thor would protect it more. then, rosie came up with an ingenious idea. she double noted steve's shoe laced together and pulled the hairband out the hair to wrap round his hands, if nothing else but to buy herself time. she then leaped into action, swung to the floor, hitting the back of thor's knees and returning in time to get steve before he managed to untie his shoe laces. luckily, these mats were quite small to have six people on. once thor was finally on the ground, carol pinned his feet and hope pinned his legs, inevitably winning them the game. "that shoe lace thing was a nice touch" steve said to rosie as she pulled him off the ground "couldnt have you escaping till i took out thor's knees" she said with a smile, causing steve to laugh.
the battles went on, until the final two teams were team 3 and team 5. "okay hope, go for wanda, nat took her out with ease so hopefully you can too, rosie you go for valkyrie, i'll help you after getting scott close enough to hope so she can hopefully hold down both okay hands in 3...2..1...TEAM" carol exclaimed, their arms once more flying into the air. rosie offered the opposing team i sincere smile before going after valkyrie. she was able to efficiently block her moves, but was yet to attempt a hit. 'when you can't see where to play offensive, do your very best defence' was what nat had once said to her. across the mat, hope was working on pinning wanda whilst carol was sitting on scott's back. "hey hope, need a break, he's pretty comfy" and with that, they switched positions, carol was quickly able to pin wanda. rosie had managed to land a few good hits on valkyrie, and had got one busted lip in return, which she seemed completely unfazed by. as valkyrie went to throw a punch, rosie took her arm, swinging her over her head. in one smooth motion, rosie had both of valkyries wrists pinned to the ground, one calf spread across her thighs pinning her legs. "3...2...1 and we have our winners" tony said in an unenthusiastic tone. rosie went to sit on the bench, starting to feel slightly nauseous, and pulled out her bottle of water. natasha quickly went over to join
"you really had to do all of that, you were sick this morning rosie"
"isn't it technically yesterday morning now" the time was 1:44
"i suppose it is...why did you try so hard?"
"well i couldnt let my team down"
"okay then why fake struggle to begin with"
"i didn't want tony to shout again, i really didn't mean to cheat nat" hope and wanda approached the bench with the two girls, leaving carol to gloat to the rest of the group.
"you were great rose" wanda said. the girl smiled up at her "thanks wands"
"headache?" natasha whispered to which rosie nodded in response "hope, want to join wanda, rosie and i for a drive?" natasha queried
"yeah sure, i don't think any of those guys are gonna miss us" so nat, wanda, rosie and hope all snuck out of the training room heading for natashas car.
