My second published Story, I'm working on it with a few other Marvel related fics which are all linked. I take inspiration from movies, games and the comics of Marvel although I havent read much Marvel lately so dont blame me if I potray characters wrong. This Fic is also connected with my X-men academy X fic.

Marvel Universe: Becoming a hero
Chapter 1: The school trip
He lay face flat on his bed wearing a simple pair of grey shorts and a blue shirt, the bed sheets were only covering his left leg, His blonde hair was messy and stuck out in places almost like he'd been shocked, he also had two of the worst sleeping habits, he drooled and he snored. As the phone on his bedside cabinet rang he slowly moved his hand not even looking to see where the phone was (and not even caring about the watch and lamp he knocked over) he grabbed the phone pressed a button and placed it to his ear.
"This better not be you Tito" he said in a very tired and worn out voice.
"It's me you lazy bum" a girl's voice said on the other side of the phone.
"Who?" the boy asked and a impatient sigh came off the other end of the phone.
"It's Faith or is that a little bit too hard to remember?"
"Oh sorry Faith, what's up, we haven't got school have we because I'm still not sharing that report on Meta-humans with you" He said.
"Reilly don't you remember the school trips on today, the one you've desperately been wanting to go to" Faith said.
It was then that Sven Lucas Reilly popped his head up revealing his grey eyes "ALL RIGHT!!" He yelled dropping the phone and rushing towards his wardrobe, he removed his shirt and quickly sprayed himself with deodorant and put on a pair of black jogging trousers, a white muscle shirt and a pair of blue socks, he then took a hat and a blue-collar shirt off of the peg on his door. He ran down the stairs putting the shirt on but not bothering to button it up, he then placed the cap on his head and jumped over the stair railing landing on his feet on a carpet, he quickly ran past the kitchen but stopped when he heard "Don't you want breakfast?" from his mother.
He rushed into the kitchen and grabbed a waffle that was placed neatly and a plate with a red headed girl looking at the waffles with awe but then yelling "SVEN THOSE ARE MINE!" it was too late as Sven was already out of the house running across the street of his normal suburban street. He occasionally stopped to say hello to some of his neighbours but none of them really understood him since he was still chewing on the waffle, which he just rammed into his mouth.
"He's always late" the man said tapping his foot against the gravel and leaning against the yellow school bus, he wore a white buttoned shirt with a name badge saying "Mr Jones" on it.
He looked into his bus to see 13 other students either looking at their watches or in one case just playing a PSP "TITO!!" he yelled and the pompous boy playing the games quickly switched them off.
When Jones opened the bus door a voice cried out "WAIT!" Sven ran towards Mr Jones sweating and panting.
"I'm here Mr Jones, and I brought the permission slip and my report" Sven said taking two bits of paper out of his bag and giving them to his teacher who looked at them with surprise in his eyes.
"This report is great, interesting how you mentioned the Avengers and Project Rebirth, I only wish your other work was as good as this" Mr Jones said
"Ok get on the bus kid" Sven then jumped into the air and yelled "WOOOHOOO!!" he then climbed into the bus going past a few full seats before reaching Tito a short boy with huge round glasses and would normally be seen tinkering with a laptop but today he was playing with a miniature computer made by Stark International.
"What are you downloading now Tito" Sven asked sitting in the seat behind Tito and looking over his shoulder.
"Just a schematic of the some of Mr Starks Iron man armour's if I'm going to get a job at Stark enterprises then I'll need to impress him" Tito said.
"Your really sure that he's going to take the tour himself?" Sven asked knowing full well what the answer would be.
"Billionaires like him are always looking to impress the public that includes touring small town students like us" Tito said failing to notice Sven lip syncing his words.
Tito's real name was actually Kyle Carter but Sven had begun calling him Tito mostly to annoy him until he got used to the name. Tito was the classic stereotype of the school geek and nerd, he wore glasses, fancy shoes, smart shirts with pens in the pocket and of course he often carried a laptop with him. A child prodigy with the potential to be a genius.
"Where are Calvin and Mariko?" Sven asked looking around the bus.
"Didn't you hear Mariko's parents found out she had a crush on our gym teacher" a brown haired girl called Faith said. Faith was actually called Elizabeth Perkins but she was called Faith because she had so much of it, not in religion that is but in her friends.
"I don't see why you all don't realise it's just a phase she's going through" a black haired boy of Chinese heritage said.
It was then that the boy sitting next to Faith spoke up "Just because your crushing on her Shang-Chi", his name was John Walker, like Sven he was a super hero fanatic but probably not so as much as his friend, John wore a blue shirt with the symbol of the American Flag on the back, he himself wasn't what you'd call patriotic but his father and grandfathers still held value for the American qualities of freedom and independence having been soldiers themselves.
"Say Reilly you prepared to visit Stark Tower?" John asked.
"Of course I've done plenty of research on the Iron Man project plus I keep up to date with it's news, did you know that both Shield and Stark International are currently in upheaval because Stark is no longer providing weapons for them" Sven said.
"I heard something about that, I think it's just a front for Stark to earn more publicity" Shang-chi said.
"Ok class here's the rules for when we get to Stark Tower" Jones said standing up as the bus started moving "If you are going to wander off stay in a group of at least four people".
A few hours had passed and Sven looked at the gold Stark Tower with his mouth open.
"You look like a kid at a candy store Reilly" Faith teased.
"I don't believe this is actually happening" Sven said wiping a tear from his eye.
'What a pussy' Shang-Chi thought.
"Calvin and Mariko don't know what they're missing" Sven said being the first off his seat and rushing towards the bus door.
"REILLY!" Jones yelled as Sven accidentally ran into a blonde haired man wearing a grey trench coat.
"I'm so sorry sir" Jones said helping Sven up.
"It's all right really" the man said waving his hands and picking Sven's bag up "Here you go son" the man said giving the bag to sven then patting him on the head.
"Hey earth to Sven, what's wrong with you" John said waving his hand in front of Sven's eyes.
"Don't you know who that guy is?" Sven asked James who merely shrugged his shoulders.
"Think back to that article on Captain America" Sven said and it suddenly came to John "That's right, Captain Steve Rogers just patted me on the head" Sven said like a child who had just met his biggest hero.
"Don't tell me your never going to shower again" Shang-Chi said and frowned when Sven nodded his head.
