Chapter 11

/START/

Irene agreed to meet Conrad at the restaurant instead of him picking her up. It was really the only thing her uncle asked her to do. He didn't want some guy driver her around. As she drove to her destination, she looked in the review mirror and saw a black car following her. It also didn't help that her uncle sent her two body guards, Josh and Devon. They were cool people but they always followed the rules Tony set. At the next stop light, Irene called Devon on her blue-tooth. After a few rings he picked up.

"Yes Ms. Stark?" he answered

"Hey Devon, when we get there, can you guys please wait in the car?" Irene asked

"Your Uncle gave up strict orders not to leave you" he said

"How about… if you waited outside. I don't want Conrad to get nervous."

"Sorry Irene but you know Mr. Stark."

"How close did my uncle Tony asked you guys to be?"

"Right next to the table."

"That screams romantic right there"

"Remember what happened last time we let you go off on your own?"

"I never leave you guys!"

"You do all the time."

"I'm now older and wiser"

"Remember the time you were ditching us at Disneyland two weeks ago!"

"I never did such thing!"

"Says the girl who ditch us to meet Jack Skellington and Sally in front of the Haunted Mansion"

"You know I love them in that movie!"

"And Pocahontas and John Smith in Frontier Land"

"One of my favorite Disney Princess and hero!"

"And Mulan and Shang in front of the castle?"

"I love Mulan but that guy that was portraying Shang was supermegafoxyawesomehot"

"You are not leaving our sight this time"

"…Can we meet at the middle and you two can be a table away from us behind Conrad so he doesn't know you guys are there."

Devon took a second you think and talked to Josh.

"We can do that but don't try pull the time you ditch us to meet Tron and we lost you for an hour. Then we found you riding the roller coaster with some random guy!"

"It was Toby Turner also known as Tobuscus! He was fun to hang around!" Irene finished the conversation just as the light turned green.

The young Stark turned the car into the front of the restaurant and gave the keys to the valet. When she entered the very nice room she scanned the place for Conrad. She couldn't find him. A host then came up to her

"Mr. Brooks is upstairs waiting for you Miss Stark." He said to her

"Thank you." Irene responded

"Of course Miss Stark"

As Irene walked up the stairs she saw no one but Conrad waiting alone.

'Well this is going to be awkward with Josh and Devon' she thought

Conrad got up from his chair and met Irene halfway

"Irene gl- glad you could make it" he said as he stuttered a little

'He must be nervous' Irene thought

"Of course Conrad, how could I say no?" she responded

Conrad was a gentleman and pulled out the chair. When Irene sat down, she notices that Josh and Devon have not joined them yet.

'Maybe they decided to give me my space' Irene thought in hopefulness

"You lo-look really st- st- stunning tonight Irene" Conrad stuttered snapping Irene from her thoughts

"Thank you Conrad. You clean up pretty well too"

"So how did your uncle t-t-take you coming t-t-tonight?"

"He pretty busy right now with work so it was easier to slip out without him asking 20 questions. I haven't been home today and I'm surprise he has not called me yet."

They talked for a little bit has the waiter got there drinks but then left in a hurry as he gave them the menus. Irene asked questions how Conrad was doing with school, his family, and stuff like that. Thought Conrad was really off and a nervous wreck. This wasn't the confident guy she got to know.

"I… I… I just w-w-want to let you know that…" Conrad was really struggling in what he was saying

"Are you ok? You don't have to be nervous in front of me" said Irene

Conrad then whispered something but then her phone ring. It was from Pepper. She looked up at Conrad and said

"Sorry, I need to answer this… Hello?"

"Irene! Where are you?" Pepper said in her worried voice

"I'm at dinner with Conrad, you know that."

"Get out of there now! I just found out that Obadiah was the one that set up to have Tony killed those months ago. He also made his own suit!"

"What? You have to be kidding me. Why would he do that? Wait never mind that..."

"I have Agent Coulson sending agents to you and get you to a safer location."

"What about my uncle! Does he know? "

"He was the one that figured it out. I went to Stark Industry and got copies of the files to confirm it. Irene I'm sorry to cut your date short but you understand that you need to get out of there. I don't know if Obadiah knows where you are."

"I understand perfectly"

"Be safe Irene"

"I will Pepper"

As Irene hanged up she looked at Conrad who was trying to smile at her

"I'm sorry Conrad but I have to go. Something came up but you understand"

Conrad then whispered something again.

"I didn't catch that" Irene said

"I'm sorry you have to leave so soon." Conrad said with his stuttering gone

"You don't have to be sorry, stuff happens" Irene said getting up to leave and find her body guards.

"This was too easy." said Conrad behind her

"What are you talking about?" Irene said as she turned around

"He said I just had to get you alone" Conrad said holding a gun in his hand pointed at her

Five armed men then entered the room wearing all black and ski masks.

The situation was hitting Irene brain as once as she tried to process what was going on. She froze and her breaths shorten. Where were Josh and Devon?

"Conrad… What is going on?" Irene asked starting to panic

"Just come with us quietly Ms. Stark and you don't have to get hurt" said Conrad

"You still didn't answer my question!" Irene asked

Secretly she pushed the button on her bracelet that her uncle designed for it. Being the niece of Tony Stark, you better bet she has some type of high tech thing to make sure she was always safe. What kind of Uncle do you think Tony is? Don't answer that question… Anyways… This bracelet was to alert Josh and Devon, where ever they were, that she was in trouble. Irene never thought she would have to use it.

"We are taking you to Stark Industry. Mr. Stane would like you to witness what he can achieve that your uncle was too weak to do" said Conrad lifting the gun down walking toward Irene

"And if I refuse?" Irene bravely asked

"Then we take you by force" Conrad said smirking

Irene turned her attention to Conrad

"Why are you a part of this Conrad?" Irene asked but also thinking 'WHERE THE FRAG ARE JOSH AND DEVON'

Conrad smirking face turned sinister then did that evil laugh that all villains do.

"I'm surprised you fell for it. This was too easy to get you alone" he started "My job was simple, makes friends with you so you would gain my trust. Then get you alone"

It look like he had an entire speech planned out but then all hell broke loose.

"IRENE DUCK!" Devon yelled entering the room with Josh and other men in suits (SHIELD Agents).

Irene dropped to the floor and under a table. Gun shots rang across the room. She crawled to the side of the room then behind a pillar. As she stood up and looked around the corner she saw these agents kicking butt. When the last bad guys drop dead, Josh and Devon ran to her.

"Thank God you are alright" said Josh checking to see if Irene was injured

"Where were you guys?!" Irene kind of yelled

"We were stopped by the agents outside and they explained everything." said Devon

"Your uncle's personal assistant sent us" said a random Agent

"Yeah I got the call a little before I was taken hostage. You guys came here really fast… Thank you." Irene said to the Agent

"Just doing our job Ms. Stark"

"Where is Conrad?" Irene then said

"Right here Ms. Stark." Said an agent with him in handcuffs. Conrad got shot in the arm but was the only one alive.

Irene walked up to him and then punches him in the face. Josh and Devon quickly pulled her back and was holding her back. It was known that Irene had rage just like her mother.

"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO?" Irene screamed

"Mr. Stane paid me to get you out of the way. I was to get you alone then take you to him where he was going to trade you for the mini arc reactor your uncle have if his first plan didn't work."

"So everything you ever said to me, your family, and your job, school, EVERYTHING was a LIE!" Irene was boiling with rage right now

"…Yes" he said as he started to laugh again "And you fell for it all"

"Is your name even Conrad Brooks?"

"No Ms. Stark. His name is Wilson Porter. His father and Mr. Stane did some weapons trade. Mr. Stane needed a young face and Wilson volunteered." said a female agent walked up to Irene will a file "Agent Hill" she said showing her badge

Irene was on the verge of breaking down in tears. She thought this guy liked her for her and not just that she was a Stark. All of this happened because she was a Stark.

"If his first plan didn't work?" Irene said recited "Where my uncle?"

"Your uncle's current location is unknown. Our job is to get you to safety." Said Agent Hill

"And sit on the side line and do nothing while the guy my family trust for years tries to ruin everything!" Irene said

"We have orders to follow Ms. Stark" said Agent Hill

"Agent Hill, the Director on the phone" said another agent

"I need to take this" she said then walked away

Irene then turned her attention back to Conrad… Wilson… who was being walked away by agents. Her eyes then locked on to his. Whatever feeling she had left for him was gone. Everything just did a 180*.

"You were too good for him anyway Irene" said Josh

"Besides look on the bright side" started Devon "Sometimes we stand on the side line so we can get into the game when we are needed"

As they walked out front, the police had the entire building roped off. The entire front building light up with lights and Irene exited the building. The reporters were yelling questions from all over. The young Stark turned to Josh.

"Where is my car?"

"The valet just pulled it up right there next to ours. But I don't think you should drive, you had an eventful night." Josh said with her keys in his hand.

What Irene did next happened in less than 20 seconds. If you ask her to do it again she probably would not pulled the same results. She grabs the keys out of Josh's hand and sprinted to her car. It was a good 20 meters away. How she did it with heels on was those once in a life time things. The people behind her were yelling at her to get back. Once in the car she turned on the car and was out of there. Irene was on her way to Stark Industry.
