It was a calm day at the Stark-Rogers residence, Tony was in his lab tinkering with gadgets as usual and Steve was preparing dinner as they both waited for their son Peter to get home from school. Steve was putting the meatloaf in the oven when he heard the phone ring. Hoping it was Peter on the other line he rushed to phone picking it up after the third ring.

"Hello?"

On the other line was the police. Getting a call from a police official wasn't anything new for Captain America but for Steve Rogers this was much unexpected. What was more unexpected was the fact that the idiot policeman on the other end of the line claimed Peter had committed arson. Steve knew there was no way his 15 year old son would purposefully torch a building, even if it was abandoned.

Steve hung up the phone with a slam probably breaking it in the process. "Tony! We have a problem." Tony Stark had been tinkering his lab when he heard Steve call out from the living room. Tony knew his partner well enough to know that this was urgent and probably had something to do with Peter. "What's wrong? Is Peter ok?" Tony ran into the living room still wearing the prototype of an ironman arm on his left arm. "He's in Jail!" Steve explained while grabbing his key. " You coming?" Tony looked over at Steve who was throwing off the apron. "Hell Yes! That's our son." He said as he disengaged the robotic arm and left it on the couch.

Peter had been walking home when he noticed the fire. Thinking he had heard someone inside he jumped into action and ran towards the burning building. Peter didn't even bother changing into his spidey costume he simply looked for the safest way into the building. But it was to late the building was engulfed in flames and Peter had to retreat from the burning building. As he walked away from the flames he heard sirens and quickly found himself surrounded by cops.

Peter was now in an interrogation room his hands cuffed in front of him. He tried his best to claim his innocence but nobody believed him. Suddenly a cop escorted a man into the room. Peter was surprised to see that his first visitor wasn't one of his Dads. The man wore dark sunglasses and held a white cane. It didn't take long for Pete to piece it together, the man in front of him was blind. "Hi I'm Matthew Murdock and I'm the lawyer assigned to your case. Are you innocent?" Matthew didn't want to waste any time and he found that getting straight to the point was best. As Peter responded to the question Matthew didn't listen to Pete's response but instead listened to his heartbeat. The rhythm did not accelerate when Pete denied committing arson. That was all Matthew needed to decide that Peter was innocent. "Ok then, I will represent you." Matt found his way to the chair in front of Peter and sat down. Just as he was about to question Peter about the events prior to Pete's arrest the door swung open and Matt heard a four feet enter the room. His sonar abilities allowed him to see the silhouette of two people who quickly embraced Peter. Matt assumed that they were Peters parents. " Mr. And Mrs. Parker I'm Matthew Murdock your sons lawyer. " Matthew hadn't focused well enough to "see" the couples features and notice that they were both male.

What the Hell? Tony was still embracing Peter and didn't bother looking up to see the man who had addressed the couple as Mr. And Mrs. "Do we look like a Mr. and Mrs. " Tony shot back. After he had spoken he finally looked up to see Mr. Murdock. The glasses and white cane were more than enough for Tony to decide he didn't want him representing Peter. With a bank account like his Tony could definitely do better than hire a crippled Lawyer. Matt suddenly realized his mistake as the man's booming voice allowed him to catch a better glimpse of the couple's features. Luckily, Matt had a great excuse. He was blind and he was sure the gay couple in front of him wouldn't take it personally. "I apologize. Now I'd like to talk to Peter about what happened prior to his arrest."

Steve looked at Tony a little uneasy. Were they really going to trust a court appointed lawyer with the future of their son? Especially if that lawyer was blind? "Um...I don't think that's necessary." Steve said finally speaking up. Tony looked over at his husband and knew they both were thinking the same thing. " We already hired our own lawyer. Mr. Murdock but Thank you for coming by." Added Tony. That was a huge lie, but they would be hiring one soon.

Matthew could tell they were lying but he didn't let that get to him. He'd been discriminated against because of his disability before and he knew the best thing to do was ignore it. He stood up and before leaving he stated simply. "Your son is innocent. In case you change your mind here is my business card. "He then left his business card and walked out the door. As Matthew Murdock there wasn't much he could do but hope Peter was proven innocent by the court of law; but as Daredevil he could suit up and launch his own investigation.

"Dad I hope you have a great lawyer in mind because I think you just fired the only one who actually believed me." Pete said staring at his adoptive father. Did Tony know what he was doing? What if Matthew Murdock was Pete's best chance? ( To be Continued)
