Chapter 3:
"You run out of gold paint or something?" Rhodey asks of his silver and red suit.
"Thought it was about time for a little change." Tony replied, blasting off in the direction of Hammer industries.
Rhodey followed him in his own suit, since it's battery was still full and let's face it, Rhodey loved the War Machine armor.
"That's far enough gentlemen." Justin Hammer's voice bounced out of the speakers of the factory as they landed.
Twenty or so men with some sort of super powered guns surrounded them.
"Hammer, we're just here to talk." Rhodey said, holding his hands up.
"And to take away your super bomb…" Tony murmured loudly.
"That bomb is no where close enough for you to dismantle it before it blows." Justin replied, the large metal doors to the factory opening.
"I press this little button, and you've got less than five minutes to find and attempt to dismantle it." Justin continued. "Which you can't, not even you, Stark."
"You're dead." Tony said, holding up his repulser and aiming it at Justin's head.
"Where's the bomb?!" Tony demands, noticing the many guns now pointed his way.
"I wouldn't do that, Tony." Justin told him, grabbing one of the guns from his men.
Shooting it at a pile of bricks, he demonstrated it's dissolving powers. The bricks are gone in seconds, leaving just a heap of cement.
"That's cool and all, but I've got stuff to do. Places to be." Tony flew above Justin and when he nodded to Rhodey, they both activated their laser wrist-weapons.
Every one of Hammer's goons drop dead around him, leaving just him to point his gun at Rhodey just in time for Tony to knock it out of his hand with a blast from his repulser.
Justin doesn't hesitate to grab the remote and press down hard on the small button.
Tony grabs the remote away from him and crushes it. He then flips Justin around and ties him to the fence around the factory.
"Let the cops take care of him, we don't have time." Tony instructs, flying off in the surrounding area while Jarvis scans for explosives.
"Sir, I've detected a large increase of a form of gunpowder being slowly activated in the south subway station." Jarvis' British voice tells him through his suit's speakers. "And may I suggest you tell the Avengers of this discovery, considering they're hovering just above this area and can reach the bomb faster than yourself and Colonel Rhodes."
"Damn. Why do I always have to be the one to come crawling back." Tony mumbles to himself, flying at top speed on his way to the south subway station.
"Jarvis, call Romanoff." Tony instructed after a second of putting it off, deciding it was better to be safe than sorry.
"Tony? What's going on?" Natasha asked urgently through the phone, knowing something had to be going on for him to call through Jarvis.
"Strap on a parachute and drop as fast as you can. Bomb in the south sub station, if you hurry the city might live to find out whether Olicity goes canon." Tony told her, making an Arrow reference because let's be real for second, it's the best TV show ever.
"You and you're obsession with Arrow." Natasha complains, strapping on a parachute.
"Hey, Clint loves it just as much as I do!" Tony defends, watching scarlet red hair fly down toward the station just as it came into his view.
"Get the helicarrier out of here." Natasha ordered Steve through the commlinks, not giving any further instruction as she found the bomb and began pulling it apart.
"How long do we have?" Tony and Rhodey came rushing down the sub tunnel in their suits.
Natasha already had the bomb opened up and she had three wires in her hands.
"Cut all three, cross your fingers." Natasha whispered to herself as she used a piece of broken bottle that she'd found in the subway to cut the wires.
After a minute of silence, Tony's face plate slid up to reveal a look of shock. "Remind me to get you to teach me how to deactivate bombs."
"Anytime." Natasha huffed out a sigh of relief. "Next time give me warning before you make me jump out of a helicarrier with a chute to deactivate a bomb in a subway."
"I did warn you." Tony said with a smirk. "Five seconds in advance."
"Guess this team is more effective than we give ourselves credit for." Natasha motions to herself, Rhodey, and Tony. "When it comes to Hammer anyway."
So yeah, awesome Natasha+Rhodey+Tony ending because when they combine they kick some major ass.
