Hey, readers! I used to watch this show, and this story kinda came to me a while ago, but I've finally finished it; references the episode "Fear Itself." Hope y'all enjoy! Favorite and review if you like (if anyone even reads this!)

"WHAT THE-"

Red got up off the floor, rubbing his sore head as he looked at his set of weights. Now he noticed that his largest set of weights were replaced with fake, ultra lightweight ones. When he'd gone to lift them, they shot into the air, hitting him in the head because he wasn't expecting so little resistance. As he was getting up, he noticed the tiny camera drone quickly fly out of his bedroom.

"JONES," he screamed, his body heating up to dangerous levels as he became filled with rage. Red immediately stormed out of his room, heading straight to the bedroom of the youngest hulk, A-Bomb. The angry hulk hammered on the door, which barely budged (after Abomination's last attack, they'd reinforced all the doors in the base, so that even a Hulk couldn't break them down), yelling through the metal. "OPEN UP," he barked, slamming both fists on the door frame. "I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE! YA THINK IT'S FUNNY, MESSING WITH MY STUFF?! LET ME GIVE YA SOMETHING TO MESS WITH! COME OUT HERE AND FACE ME LIKE A MAN!"

The kid didn't reply, and after a few minutes, Red stormed off, trying to cool down. The next time he saw that kid, he'd give it to him. It seemed that every other week, the kid was pulling some prank on him. For instance, a few weeks ago, A-Bomb had spiked his shaving cream with itchy powder, and he was scratching his face and neck for hours afterwards. Before that, he'd replaced Red's gamma guns with water gun replicas, so when he went to train, all that shot out was a thin stream of water, sending Jen and Skaar into hysterics.

One damn prank after another, he thought to himself, still seething mad and refusing to calm down, his body steaming with heat. When I get my hands on that kid, I'll show that clown-

Red suddenly stopped in the hall, an idea forming in his mind. A few months ago, they'd fought a monster from space that showed them their worst fears, and the red man still clearly remembered what A-Bomb's was. Every time the kid pranked him, he'd get upset, manage to land a few punches, but another prank always followed a while later. This time, he thought as a smile crossed his face, he wouldn't get mad.

He'd get even.

Rick grinned to himself as he made his way back to the room after filming his segment for the web show.

He'd pulled a good prank on Red the day before, and he'd managed to get off without a scratch. Rick (aka A-Bomb) had sneaked into Red's room, invisible, replaced his weights with lighter replicas, and hid a camera so he could watch the show. The hothead lifted the bar and promptly knock himself off his feet, laughing hysterically from the safety of his bedroom as he watched the camera feed. Of course, Red had immediately come to his room, hammering on the door and demanding that he come out and face him like a man, but Rick waited him out, the hulk eventually tiring himself out and leaving. Later at dinner, Red didn't look at him or say anything, and the blue hulk was glad that the ex-general hadn't tried to beat him to a pulp. Now, as he walked back to his room, he decided he should upload it to the web show, seeing as how he hadn't uploaded a prank video in months.

Entering his room, he flopped onto his bed, pulling out his large tablet from his bedside table, prepared to go through the day's footage. Shifting into a sitting position, he frowned when he felt something odd underneath his pillow. Reaching down, he recoiled in horror and gave a short yell when he pulled out a clown doll.

"GAH!" he yelled, tossing the creepy clown across the room. It made a small laughing noise, which sent another chill up A-Bomb's spine. Eventually, his heart stopped pounding, his breath slowing down. There was only one hulk who could've done it, and he gave a low growl of annoyance.

I probably deserved that, though, A-Bomb thought bitterly, going back to his tablet. I'm lucky he didn't do anything worse. Rick turned on his tablet to find the background had been changed to a bunch of smiling, creepy clown faces. He screamed, dropping the tablet and falling off the bed as he tried to scramble away from it. It was at that moment he noticed the floating camera hovering in the corner, it's red recording light on.

"V-Very funny, Red," A-Bomb said shakily, getting to his feet and walking over to the camera. "You got me good, heh heh! Sorry for what I did earlier with your weights, and-"

Suddenly, he felt something hit his shoulder, and he looked down, falling back when he saw another clown doll, this one smiling maniacally at him from the floor. Then, another one fell from the ceiling. Then another. He screamed as a bunch of dolls started falling from the ceiling, several floating bots releasing a tarp full of clown dolls onto A-Bomb.

Rick screamed again, breathing heavily as he stared in horror at the surrounding clowns, all of them seeming to jeer at him. They seemed to cover the floor like an ocean of terror, and it was like some horrible nightmare come to life. The blue hulk scrambled to his feet, tripping and falling over the dolls as he tried to get out of his room. Each doll he stepped on made that maniacal laughing noise, which rang in the teen's ears as he ran out of his room in blind terror, right into the red fist right outside his door.

A-Bomb was sent flying down the hall, landing painfully on his back. Looking up, a little dazed, he saw Red roaring with laughter, leaning against the wall for support. Besides the sore jaw, the teen felt embarrassed, seeing the hulk cruelly laughing at him.

"OH, YA SHOULD SEE YOUR FACE RIGHT NOW," he laughed, a few of the camera bots hovering next to him. "AND I GOT IT ALL LIVE-STREAMED! HA HA HA!" The red hulk seemed to calm down a little after that, glaring at the blue hulk. "That'll teach ya to mess with my stuff again, Rookie!"

Rick stared at Red as he made his disappeared down the hall, shaking like a leaf as he got to his feet. His heart was pounding in his chest, and he felt incredibly embarrassed and angry, but he knew better than to retaliate; if the Hulk could keep his temper, he definitely could. Still, he was shaken; a few months ago, after a battle with a particularly vicious monster named Null, the whole S.M.A.S.H. team had learned each other's fears, and it was apparent that Red had remembered that Rick's was clowns.

I definitely deserved that, Rick thought, rubbing his sore jaw, but that was a little immatu- wait, did he say LIVE-STREAMED?!
