"My fellow Americans, it is with great pride that I welcome the creator of Iron Man weapon, and the head CEO at Stark Industries Tony Stark-"

*click*

Danielle snapped out of her trance with the television as it suddenly went black. She looked at it in horror for a second and quickly tried to find the remote to turn it back on. She dug through the couch cushions grumbling a few words that her mother wouldn't approve of in the process.

"Mmm-hmph"

That noise, she knew who it was. Great. Danielle groaned slightly as she poked her head up from the couch. Good news was she found the remote, and the reason as to why the plasma turned off, bad news was it was her mother. There her mother stood in the hallway of their overly large living room inside of their three story mansion.

One hand aimed the remote at the T.V and the other glued to her hip. Let the lecture being thought Danielle.

"Danielle we talked about this."

She groaned even loader and plopped lazily onto the couch avoiding eye contact with her mother as she crossed her arms around her chest starring out into the New York skyline, refusing to speak with her.

"It's for your own good, and you know that."

She sat up from her spot on the large couch and looked at her mother. How she hated when she played that card, so to speak. The 'it's better if you didn't know' or the 'It's for your own good' or 'I'm just trying to protect you because I love you'. It made Danielle so mad. Tony Stark was no IS one of the greatest minds of the twenty first century and her mother refused to let her so much as hear his name. It wasn't fair.

"But why, why are you so protective of me. Against him you act as if he's the devil mom."

Juliet couldn't help but pinch the bridge of her nose in frustration. She hated going over Tony Stark even more now that he had become one of the world's most beloved heroes, and hated for some people . . .like her. They hadn't spoken since that day at the court house sixteen years ago. That's all people talked about now a days was him and his Ironman suits.

Every day it grew harder and harder trying to keep such a large secret from her daughter. He still didn't know about Danielle and that's how it was going to stay, but it was getting harder and harder keeping it from her daughter.

"He isn't, I just don't want you wrapped up in all his, drama-. . ."

"I've heard that excuse a million times. . ."

Danielle sighed breaking the utter silence. She knew her mother was only trying to protect her from the world but it just wasn't fair.

"I'm sorry I just, for some strange reason every time I hear about him or see him or his work. I. . . .I feel connected with him somehow."

Juliet walked over to her daughter and sat next to her. Pulling her next to her and into her own arms.

"You're twice as smart as him Danielle. If I had to put my money on it I'd say you could give Tony Stark a run for his own money."

Both of them laughed at Juliet's comment. She brushed the pieces of her daughter's dark almost black hair out of her blue eyes and tucked them behind her ear. Making Danielle smile.

Why couldn't she ever stay mad at her mother? Maybe it was because the two of them were so close it was hard for either of them to fight and hold grudges. They did have a lot in common. Smarts, love for cars and technology and the interest of making a difference in the world, but her mom was still her mom. She didn't approve of the music she listened to or some of the clothes she wore. Thank god she approved of her friends. Err friend. Seeing as Danielle only had really one inside of New York.

"Juliet?"

The deep voice of their lead body guard filled across the room. 'Nice timing Carlos' Danielle thought. He was almost like a father figure in her life, almost. It was always work, work, and more work for him. No matter how hard he had just worked to him the job still wasn't done. Though he had saved her from at least two hostage situations for ransom and once from being kidnapped during a European tour with her mother.

"There's a sitituation down stairs that needs your attention."

She nodded and stood up kissing her daughter.

"Hey uh mom. I was meaning to ask you Jenny was wondering if it was ok if I went to Seattle with her and her parents for a couple of weeks."

They exchanged glances Carlos giving a shrug for his answer before walking off. The plan had already been hatched for a few weeks now, but her fingers remained crossed.

Jenny was her best friend and her only friend for that matter. Smart as hell she was, and never afraid to get her hands dirty. Not to mention that girl had a very very twisted mind, that wasn't always good. But Juliet didn't know that.

"That might work out perfectly. I have to fly to Europe in a about two days. Business. Again."

A smile appeared across her daughters face and she quickly hopped up from spot and threw her arms around her mother.

"Thanks mom, love you."

Before Juliet responded Danielle ran past her and into her room. Making her laugh softly before she made her way down stairs to find Carlos.

Little did she know of the plan that was brewing in her daughters head. A plan that she had feared for sixteen years. . .

A/N: I think everyone knows what Danielle and her bestie are planning. But you'll have to find out next chapter anyways yeah read and review. Oh

*sighs*I do not own Ironman; if I did I'd I wouldn't be doing this. Anyways hope you like it.
