Ultimate Spider-Man II: Battle for New York
Chapter 1
Justin Stark woke up to hear mechanical whirring, once his eyes were wide open, he saw that his dad Tony Stark was in his room getting into his Iron Man armor, everything was on but his helmet. "Good morning, champ! Just wanted to make sure you were awake before I left." he said. "Before you leave meaning: "before I go and risk my life for the greater good of humanity, then yeah, your wakeup call was a success." Justin replied. He hated the fact that his father was Iron Man, the fact that everyone in New York City and the entire world knows that Tony Stark was Iron Man. It not only put his father's life in danger, but Justin's and his mother's in danger as well. "I mean, do you really have to be Iron Man, there are like a thousand or more super-heroes in New York, why do you have to be one of them?" His father just smiled and said "When the time comes, you'll know" before having a machine put his helmet on and then catapulting out of the Stark Enterprise building/house. "BE CAREFUL!" Justin said as he watched his dad fly off to fight crime, not knowing if he would ever see him again, it felt new every time, even though he's dealt with it for the past 14 years, it never became something he got used to. He sighed as he went to the bathroom to do his usual routine of showering, brushing his teeth, and brushing his hair, he went to his room and put on a grey Midtown High zip-up hoodie and blue jeans, grabbed his backpack, and went downstairs to have breakfast. "Morning, Justin" Pepper Stark said, "Good morning, mom" Justin grimly replied. "Honey, don't be so sad, your father is a hero. In a way, this city is like a war, and he's one of the brave soldiers that do their best to protect us." "Yeah, a bravely stupid soldier" Justin replied back. Justin admired in a way, but he would never say it. "Don't talk about your father like that, just know that he loves you, I love you." "Thanks, mom, I love you too" Justin said as he finished his food, put his dishes in the sink. "Now come on Justin, let's get you to school."
