It's a funny thing, Tony mused, that the only thing that I have now, is something that I've never had before. For once, I actually have a plan. I'm like Captian friggin' America.

He thought it was the funniest thing as he worked on his plans while Yinsen slept. In fact, he almost started laughing, which would have been really weird seeing as he was captured in a cave in the middle of Afghanistan, held against his will making weapons.

Well, he was kinda cheating out of that last one but hey. Whatever.

His plan?

Escape.


Fuck.

The one word that was on his mind as he crashed his suit after the chaos that was leaving the cave.

He was seriously pissed, dehydrated, starving, and again, pissed. But hey, he has another plan.

Survive.


Once he got home, faced Obie, and the company.

He had one more plan.

Thrive.
