Yay! Review time!
PercyJacksonLover14:
1) See! Your mentioned again. Hope I made you feel special again! I always answer reviews before starting a chapter...
2) Yes. He will die- just not in this story XD I don't kill off characters... Or do I?
3) Yeah. I'm a hardcore Canadian. I love Canada. And Scotland. And New Zealand. I love anything with beautiful nature. Ironically, I spend most of my time inside. Funny, eh?
4) I would as well. Pepper and I have more in common then our rambling :)
5) Haha, it was very short. Sadly, I was feeling very sick when writing. That is why it was so bad.
I forgot my fun fact last time (heh) so you get two today! (Yay!)
Fun fact #1: My friends call me Merida. Why? I'm about as bashful as she is, and we share the same colour of hair. My red hair is a lot tamer though!
Just to y'all know, I have absolutly NO idea where I'm going with this.
And thank you all soooo much for reviews. 16 and only 3 chapters! Yoy guys are the bestest! *digitally hugs everyone and hands out cookies*
Special guest (s) in this chapter!
"Welcome." The computer's female voice echoed through the abandoned lab. The three entered. Rhodey and Howard went straight for the suits, but Pepper hung behind for a moment. Maybe... Maybe Ghost had left Tony? Maybe he had hurt Tony then abandoned him?
"Pepper, what are you doing? Are you coming or not?" Rhodey asked, his War Machine armour clanking as he turned to face the red-haired girl. Pepper snapped out of her trance.
"I guess so. Do you think Ghost left Tony here...?"
Pepper let the sentance drag. Rhodey shook his head. "I don't think he would, Pepper. I'll check anyway. Computer, scan for life forms."
"Three life forms found, classified as Howard Stark, James Rhodes and Patricia Potts."
Howard sighed with annoyance and rubbed his temple, leaning against the Mark II's armor container. It was still open from when Tony had been fiddling with it- when times were as peaceful as it could get- for a super hero.
"Sorry Pepper. Ghost was smart enough to take Tony somewere else. Howard, are you taking the Mark II?" Rhodey turned his attention back to Tony's father.
"No, I'm afraid Tony may need it's life support system. I've clashed with Ghost before, he doesn't go easy on captives. Maybe I could use the space suit-"
"It dosen't have very good weaponry." Rhodey cut in. "I'm worried your going to need the Hulk-Buster armor."
Pepper choked on a sob. Poor Tony! What did he ever do to deserve this? Suddenly Pepper relised something.
"How are we going to find Tony? I mean, it's not like Ghost is just going to tell us where they are." Rhodey and Howard stopped discusing suits that would work best for rescuing, and looked at Pepper.
"I-I don't know!" Rhodey said after a few moments. He had heen so concerned on getting Tony back, he had forgotten how they were going to find him!
"Computer, locate Tony's phone signal." Howard said.
"Searching. Signal found. Anthony's phone is at Tomorrow Academy." The female voice replied.
Pepper held up her hand for them to stop. "I remember that, he left it there because Whitney was pestering him with calls. How are we gonna find him now?"
"Ah, Tony," Tony opened his eyes as Ghost walked into the room.
"Welcome to the land of the living." Tony rolled his blue eyes in annoyance.
"Hope you've healed up nicely." Sarcasm dripped from the super-villain's words. Tony rolled his eyes again. His upper body was littered with scabs from the previous beating.
"Today, I think I'm going to leave you alone..."
Tony basically choked with silent, sarcastic laughter. Leave him alone? Yeah, the day that happened he'd be all buddy-buddy with the violent mutant, Wolverine. The young hero wanted to throw-up at the memory.
"I see you don't believe me then. Smart choice. Because I am going to pick on you without physical harm..." Ghost trailed off again, and smirked.
"I want to introduce to my dear friend." Ghost held up a remote And Tony felt fear rip through his veins. What was it for?
"I truly hope you have some horrible memories for me to replay in your head. Though, when I'm through with you, you'll have no good ones left."
Tony's scream ringed through the air as his mother's death resurfaced once more in Anthony Stark's mind.
"Pepper, put the coffee down." Howard said, continuing to fiddle with the compuer's circuits.
"It helps me focus! You're taking forever!" Pepper exclaimed, growling at Rhodey when he tried to take the Starbuck's cup from her hand.
"The only reason I'm taking forever, is because your so hyped up everything is in slow motion to you." The older Stark replied, muttering to himself as he fiddled with some command codes.
"Hey! How do you-"
"Even I don't need to be a genius to figure that out Pepper." Rhodey said.
"Well while you sit around here, I'm going to fly around and find Tony!" Pepper jumped up from her seat, and raced out the automatic doors.
"There's just no stopping that girl, is there- got it!" Howard exclaimed, and the computer re-booted.
"Computer model 2.5 updated. The Anthony Stark Rescue Program is ready for action."
Howard rubbed his hands together. "Perfect!"
"Hrmph, for a genius, he sure takes a while to get going!" Pepper mumbled to herself, the wind rushing past her suit.
"I mean really, how long could it take-"
Pepper. Rescue screeched to a hault in mid-air.
"What the-" Pepper glanced around.
Pepper, I have information you need! The familiar voice stated.
"Jean? Are you in my head!?" Pepper cried out loud, forgetting that she only needed to talk in her head.
Yes, meet me at 42 St.'s Bluenotes. I know where Tony is!
"Gotcha!" Pepper said, and flew off, before a sudden thought hit her. How the heck did Jean Grey know where Tony was, and she didn't? They hadn't know the young mutant for that long!
Pepper landed behind the clothing store, and her suit reacted into a shoulder bag. Tony had the suits customized further, beside the amount, and style, of weaponry.
Grumbling to herself, Pepper entered the store.
A small bell rang, and Jean looked up from the clothing rack, and waved Pepper over.
"How the heck do you know where Tony is?" Pepper didn't even bother to say hello. Jean wasn't expecting a greeting from the annoyed girl anyway.
"Do you remember that... School I was talking about?" Jean asked, looking at a sweater.
"Yeah, why?" Pepper asked. Jean looked up and smiled.
"The Professer there helped me with my, well, gifts. I was passing by an old warehouse yesterday, and felt a great amount of suffering. Professer X-"
"Who's Professer X?" Pepper quikly jutted in. Jean glanced around, and Pepper heard a little voice in her head.
He's the leader of a group of mutants, who do good with their powers! Their called the X-Men.
"Anyway, we used a super computer, and found Tony!" Pepper's mouth dropped open, and Jean handed her a slip of paper. A button beeped on the Mutant's belt, and Jean frowned.
"C'mon kid! Chuck wants ta see you! I'm comin' to get you now!" A growly voice said. Jean smiled to Pepper, slightly embarrassed, and responded to the communicator.
"Okay Logan, on it." Jean waved goodbye to Pepper, and ran outside. A guy on a motorbike picked her up. Pepper scoffed as Jean left unexpectedly.
"What is this for anyway?" Pepper muttered, walking out of the store. An address was scribbled on it messily.
That's where Tony is. I wish you the best of luck finding him, and I hope he is alright when you do find him.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I'M DONE. FOR NOW. CRAP. Okay, anyway:
Fun fact #2: Iron Man 3 came out on my birthday. (Take that suckers!) And, (I said this before) I'm Canadian.
(WOLVERINE IS AWESOME AND YOU CANT SAY NO BECAUSE HE IS ONE OF THE FEW CANADIAN SUPERHEROS EVER!)
Okay, I hope you all enjoy this... Constructive criticism would be nice :)
And for further notice, none of the X-Men come in later. I had just watch X-Men: Wolverine: Origins and wanted to put in some of my favourite superheros/mutants :D
