Anthony Edward and Margaret Carmela Stark were born on May 29th, 1973, the announcement of the birth shocking the world into silence as its people digested the knowledge that there were two Stark Heirs, one of them female, and wondered which of the twins Howard would leave Stark industries to. Many assumed Howard would leave his company to Anthony when he was old enough, dismissing the thought that a woman could run the company alongside her twin, let alone by herself.
After all, it was a man's world, not a woman's.
Many years later, as Tony (never Anthony) Stark stood at the podium, dark shades over his eyes and an arc reactor hidden beneath the layers of his suit, Carmela (never Margret) draped over him with crimson-painted lips pulled back into a smile that held far too much teeth and the golden flecks within her whiskey-colored eyes a tad too bright to be attributed to the lights, with Virginia "Pepper" Potts standing at their right and Colonel James Rhodes at their left, those who remembered the day the Stark's announced the birth of the twins would whisper; We should've known it didn't matter who Howard chose to leave his company to, the world always belong to the Stark's.
Marvel, it's movies, characters, comics, and merchandise all belong to the Walt Disney Company and it's subsidiaries. I'm not writing this fanfiction for profit, only fun.
Disclaimer out of the way, this fanfiction mainly takes place in an alternate universe that's similar to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, also known as universe 1999999, with sprinkles of universe 616, the mainstream comics, sprinkled in, so you've been warned that this will manly be a mishmash of story-lines in both the movies and comics.
Also, this story will be updated whenever I have the time and it will not be on a regular updating schedule.
That said, I hope you enjoy the story.
