Chapter Two

(Please Review and Rate to give me some sort of feedback. thank you)

It's been months, but Tony Stark has finally been found and Pepper informed me, and I told her that I would be there, so I got in my newly purchased baby, 2008 Camaro that had the same color scheme as my 1970 and I drove to the hangers. (Pick Here)

I purposely arrived late, I saw Happy about to drive off with Pepper and Tony inside so I got infront of the car and got out of the car, Tony's window was open so I put my arms on the door and looked at them. "Excuse me, I'm looking for Tony Stark, has bullet holes in his body, broken arms and legs, looks deformed because there is no wayin hell he would survive without missing something, have you seen him?"

Tony glares at me, "I'll have you know that I am in one piece thank you very much, but seriously move out of the way, I want a cheeseburger and then a press conformance, so chop chop young man." I roll my eyes and chuckle.

I go the Happy's window, "Do you mind buying me a cheeseburger as well?" I asked as I hand him a 20 dollar bill.

"No sir." He simply says as he takes the bill.

I then go back to Tony's Window, "I'll see you at the press conformance Stark, don't get lost on me now." I say as I head to my car and drive off.

I arrive at Stark Industires HQ as I see Obadiah and a few reporters waiting, I park my car and I walk my way to Obidiah and stand next to him, we both have negative thoughts about each other and we both know that the other knows as well, me for an obvious reason.

"Sterling." He greets Stoicly as we both face forward not looking at each other.

"Stane." I greet the same way.

"What brings you here?" He asked.

"Waiting for my cheeseburger." I tell him simply as I shrug.

Before we could say more, Tony's car arrives as Obadiah goes closer to it, opens the door and hugs Tony.

"Look at this! Tony. We were going to meet at the hospital." He tells Tony.

"No, I'm fine." Tony says as he wipes his mouth.

"Look at you! You had to have a burger, yeah?" Obadiah said as Tony grabs a burger from Happy, after he does, Happy comes to me and hands me my burger, and was about to give me back my change, but I shook my head no.

"Well, come on." Tony tells us as he walks towards the entrance.

"You get me one of those?" Obadiah asked.

"There's only one left. I need it." I chuckle as I follow behind enjoy my Burger King Cheese Burger.

We get inside and clapping and camera flashing starts happening as Obadiah starts making the crowd more hype as we walk an aisle to get to the podium, Tony sits down and leans on the podium.

"Well, let's get this started, uh..." Obadiah starts but stops as he looks down to see Tony.

"Hey, would it be all right if everyone sat down? Why don't you just sit down? That way you can see me, and I can...be a little less formal and.." Tony takes a bite of his cheeseburger as everyone sits, or squats, down, while I stay standing and shake my head and chuckle.

Tony looks at me, I shake my head. "Unless you're spanking me, I ain't doing it." He chuckles a little before adressing Obadiah.

"Good to see you." He tells him.

Obadiah seems confused, "Good to see you?"

Then Tony adresses the crowd, "I never got to say goodbye to Dad. I never got to say goodbye to my father. There's questions that I would have asked him. I would have asked him how he felt about what this company did. If he was conflicted, if he ever had doubts. Or maybe he was every inch the man we all remember from the newsreels. I saw young Americans killed by the very weapons I created to defend them and protect them. And I saw that I had become part of a system that is comfortable with zero accountability."

Tony finishes and Reporters start asking but Tony picks Ben the Reporter. "Hey, Ben."

"What happened over there?" Ben asked.

"I had my eyes opened." Tony starts and stands and moves behind the podium. "I came to realize that I have more to offer this world than just making things that blow up. And that is why, effective immediately, I am shutting down the weapons manufacturing division of Stark International until, such a time as I can decide what the future of the company will be."

"I think we're gonna be selling a lot of newspapers." I hear Obadiah say as he stands next to Tony.

Tony continues with his speech. "What direction it should take, one that I'm comfortable with and is consistent with the highest good for this country, as well."  Tony finishes and gets off the stage and I follow behind, leaving Obadiah controlling the crowd.

I stop Tony before he goes in the Arc Building as I place a hand on his shoulder. "I think you did the right thing back there." I tell him.

"Then why do I feel like I'm going to regret it later on." He says as he looks at me.

"Because that's just what doing good deed feels like, many won't like what you did, but it doesn't matter, because at the end of the day, you are saving lives more than taking them." I say as I distract him as symbiote slowly crawls down Tony and reaches his arc reactor, copying and consuming the energy, and then it comes back to me, I feel lively by the power and energy, I have a feeling that it's powering up my suit, but I don't show it.

"Anyways Tony, I have to leave you, I'm going to announce my cure to Autism, but don't forget, that was a good decision you did back there." I tell him as I head for the exit and head for my car, I get inside, I start the car, and drive off.

"Evie, you get the Energy?" I asked as I drive to my tower.

['Yes Boss, the Energy source is in the chip, currently preparing for your arrival for chip extractions, hopefully it will be painful this time, you broke your promise on a new update for me.'] Evie humphs childishly in my head.

"No I didn't, I just haven't done it yet, I'll have it done, you know I keep my promises to you, you've been with me for 72 years, you're one of my favorites along with Nat, speaking of Nat, how is she, I haven't talkes to her in a year, is she that busy?"

['Natasha is currently in Budapest, and so what you haven't talked to her, you have me.']

"Is somebody jealous?" I tease, which earns no reply, so I put on the radio and sing along.
