Intervention Part #1
INTERVENTIONTONY STARK AND PETER PARKERSNARKMASTER 5000 RP UNIVERSE
________________________________________________________
The internship that was set up for a teenager by the nane of Peter Parker was a special one. The CEO of the Industry heard about the boy from his assistant soon after he promoted Pepper to be Co-CEO with him. Now, with the Sokovia Accords in place it seemed that Tony Stark operated specifically in his office or in the boundaries of his in certifications and industrial permits for his extensive business. He was a busy man but the billionaire always made time for the things he cared about. The teen was admiral in his moral grounds and that was enough for Tony to get attached.
The attention he gave to Peter was the kind money couldn't buy. The type that he had always wanted but never received from his father; Howard Stark.
His treatment of Peter was much more focused than his usual work, and there was a reason for that. He wanted the boy to be better and in that process he got attached. He wanted Peter to have every opportunity he could even with the regulations met by the Accords. The main reason why the government doesn't come barreling down on the boy to plant a tracker on him was because of Tony Stark. In knowing where Tony is, the government would always know where Peter is as his enrollment in the internship was tracking enough..... Besides, the officials don't dare mess with Tony too much because he is the financial back bone of all their supernatural operations, so far.
Truthfully, after all was said and done... Tony regretted signing the Sokovia Accords and has been working HARD to try to have them amended for the past six months. The loss was too great because of how many rights it removed from the nation as a whole -- and how many friends he lost over these damn Accords.
"I'm telling you, Mr. Stark, you're fighting a losing battle," said congressmen Thaddeus Ross over the speaker of Tony's cell phone as he casually paced his workshop. "Eventually they are going to get tired of the way you break the regulations on a daily basis."
"They tolorate it because they know I'm right. Come on, Ross. This really can't be a positive move forward," Tony said.
"You really should bring FRIDAY in for documentation and reveal the location of your armories--"
"Hold, please...." Tapping the button, the billionaire sighed and let his hand fall to his side. With his spare hand he rubbed his brow. "FRIDAY, host the call. Play the most mundane hold music possible. Maybe after a while tell him that his call is very important before you hang up on his ass," Tony said.
"Yes sir," the voice of a female echoed over the loud speakers that filled the workshop.
There was a reason why Tony kept these three levels at the top of his tower in Manhattan private. The living quarters, workshop and penthouse levels didn't have any cameras at all and were only accessed by those of his choosing. What happened within these walls were all for his mind and how he coped with the way he saw the world. Tony has been living here ever since his mansion was blown apart by terrorists and for the most part that worked out very well.
"While on the topic of political news, sir, there is a news broadcast that you'll want to see."
Tony paused where he stood as FRIDAY brought up a hologram screen for the local news, but the story was a shocker. A horrible two car head on collision by a drunk driver in Queens. Apparently the cause was driving under the influence of alcohol as the driver fell asleep at the wheel and veered into oncoming traffic. The car slammed into another and May Parker was killed upon impact. The driver that caused the crashed died during surgery at Queens Memorial Hospital.
"May.... God, that's Pete's aunt," Tony breathed out as a light cold sweat ran down his brow. Seeing all this, the man was so stunned that he didn't feel his cell phone ring even though it was still in his hands. It initially went to voicemail but when Tony jogged his mind back to the moment he shifted to look.
It was Ned..... Peter's Ned. The kid needed help because the government now had open reign to eat him alive. Over Tony's dead body!! Before even thinking, the man dialed back and held the phone to his ear. He likely hasn't even finished leaving his voicemail because he didn't get a notification yet. The moment Tony got an answer he jumped the gun, not even giving time for a greeting.
"Ned, you tell Pete to get the hell oit of that hospital. I have FRIDAY looking over his walk no matter where he goes. I will be there in ten minutes -- but he has to leave now. Don't wait for a worker of any kind because they will hand him over to a government watch dog," he said before hanging up and moving through his workshop toward the landing strip of the tower.
Taking up his portable suit bound to a suitcase, he attached the wrist straps and jerked both wrists out. Pieces of armor whizzed from the suitcase, and attached to the Tony's body. One piece at a time they folded out to cover him across the chest and hips, then legs and feet. Boosters and repulsor cannons ignited and the AI logged in almost instantly. As the face plate closed over Tony's features he found a display of the environment around him, battery statistics, weapons system functions and the electrical currents of the city around him. Leaping off the tower, Tony took a swooping angle and was soon flying toward Queens Memorial Hospital.
