Peter's hand had shot out grabbing Tony's wrist in a firm grip his arm twisted painfully. The needle that had once been in the billionaire's hand now hovered above the trio the metal coated in Clarity's lightning as it spun slowly in the air. Clarity's eyes glowing brightly as she used her powers.

"Kid, I wanted you to distract her not break my wrist." Tony couldn't help, but wince as he spoke. Tony had to admit the kid was strong maybe even as strong as Cap.

Peter blinked for a second before Tony's words seemed to reach him. He frowned and panicked a little bit realizing what he was doing. "Sorry, , my spidey sense sort of just kicked in. My bad."

"It's fine kid, just let me go alright?" Tony questioned doing his best not to sound too pained.

"Oh, right sorry." Peter apologized again letting him go.

"Don't sweat it, now where'd that -mph" Tony glared at Peter as he covered his mouth with his hand. Peter nodded upwards above them and Tony's eyes flicked upwards following the kids directional nod with his eyes and sure enough he saw the needle twirling in the air.

"Don't say the N word." Peter whispered to him as Peter slowly rolled Tony's chair back so he wouldn't be in the needles path when it fell.

"Hey, Clarity." Peter smiled softly brushing a stray lock of hair out of her face tucking it behind her ear crouching down in front of her. "you okay?"

Clarity hummed absently in reply her eyes still glued to the needle twirling menacingly above.

"Clarity, look at me. You're safe, I've got you" Peter murmured placing his hands over hers. This startled Clarity effectively breaking her concentration. Her eyes flicking down to meet Peter's the needle crashing to the floor with a resounding clink. The two teens sharing a smile.

"Alright, take two." Tony said picking the needle up off the floor. "Kid, keep her distracted this time I don't need to be electrocuted today."

"I'm on it." Peter replied as Tony rolled his chair up next to Clarity's side once again.

"P-Peter I really don't-"

"Do needles I know, but you'll be alright. Just look at me and uh try not to think about the time in 3rd grade when you were stuck in the nurse's office with Delancy and she chased you around with a syringe."

"Well, I'm sure thinking of it now. Thanks for reminding me." Clarity frowned it.

"Whoops, okay let's stop talking about needles..." Peter trailed off scratching the back of his neck.

"Can't you just find a vampire and have it suck my blood?" Clarity pleaded.

"Vampires don't exist." Peter laughed with a shake of his head.

"That's just what they want you to think." Clarity replied.

"Clarity, they don't exist! You know they don't because if they did I would be out there looking for one for you."

"Would you?" Clarity questioned biting her lower lip.

"You know that I'd do anything for you, bugaboo." Peter replied earning a giggle from Clarity.

"Ugh, enough already. Thank god I only needed one blood sample. This painful to watch." Tony shook his head pulling out the syringe now filled with Clarity's blood.

"Thank you, Mr. Stark. Sorry about before." Clarity apologized gesturing to the syringe.

"Don't worry about it. We all have fears, kid." Tony told her. "Now out, both of you. I'm gonna need a little time to make this thing. Come back in an hour or so." Tony told them.

"Alright, thank you Mr. Stark! Be back soon." Peter waved taking Clarity's hand the two walking out of the room together.

Tony chuckled shaking his head a rare smile on his face. He rarely had a reason to smile now a days. The only one ever really succeeding in evoking one was Pepper, but when Tony watched those two together he couldn't help but smile. When Peter had grabbed his wrist Tony knew it was more than just his spidey sense like the kid claimed. The desire to protect Clarity been pure instinct. The kid hadn't even had time to think about getting stuck with a needle himself which brings Tony's thoughts to Clarity. If she had wanted she could have stopped him with her powers, but instead she had trusted Peter to make sure the needle never reached her and Clarity in turn made sure the needle never struck him. Tony doubted the two teens even realized what they had been doing.

It was too bad Clarity had no desire to become a hero. Tony felt that she would make a great one. She already had a love for metallics it seemed if he was judging by her jacket and pants. Both silver and blue colors would look great in a suit for her. As for her abilities they were definitely strong. Taking out power to an entire city was an incredible feat. Tony doubted Thor could do the same. She also already displayed impressive teamwork with the kid. Tony hadn't seen that level of teamwork since...well since Bucky and Steve. Tony shook his head deciding that thinking about this wouldn't do anyone any good. The girl needed this power dampener before she caused another incident. Tony was startled from his thoughts as Peter's head popped into the room.

"Hey, Mr. Stark!" Peter called.

"Kid, I thought I told you to go." Tony reprimanded.

"Yeah, yeah I know you did, but I just forgot to ask you...could you make it blue? Clarity loves blue."

"I'll see what I can do Kid. Now go have some fun." Tony ordered.

"Right. Thanks again Mr. Stark!" Peter waves leaving for real this time Clarity waiting for him in the elevator.

"Did you tell Mr. Stark what you needed to?" Clarity questioned.

"Yeah, I did." Peter grinned Clarity having no idea what he had told Tony. He wanted it to be a surprise.

Alright! That was chapter 4! Tell me what you think in the comments you guys! Anything in particular you'd like to see moving forwards? What do you think of Peter and Clarity?
