Avenging Speedster part 4. There will only be a couple of parts from Iron Man 2. You'll see why soon.
I don't own any Marvel characters or the oc. OC belongs to sketchywolf.
It has been two years now since Tony Stark has become Iron Man, two years since his son, Max, had slipped into a coma after helping him defeat the Iron Monger.
Max now laid in a hospital bed, in one of the best hospitals in the world.
His doctor was simply looking over him, checking his condition when all of a sudden...the now thirteen year old boy shot up with a yell.
"DAD!!!!!!," he yelled, then he felt slightly weak for a moment then jumped out of the bed.
"Whoa, Mr. Stark!!," the doctor exclaimed. "Calm down. Come on, you need to get back in bed."
"W-W-Where am I?"
"In a hospital at a SHIELD base. You've been in a coma for a while."
"How long?"
"...Why don't we call your par-," he began to say before Max interrupted him.
"How long?!," he demanded.
"Two years," a new voice said. Max turned to see a tall, dark skinned man in all black and had an eyepatch over his left eye. "It's good to see you finally awake, Mr. Stark. I'll take it from here Doc."
The doctor nodded and immediately left the two alone.
"Who are you?"
"Colonel Nick Fury. Director of SHIELD. I bet you probably have a lot of questions, correct?"
"Yeah," Max said. "What happened to my mom and dad? Are they alright? Why am I at a SHIELD base? And what happened?!!"
"Tony and Miss Potts are perfectly fine. Though they have missed you. Agent Coulson believed that SHIELD might've been the only people with any tech that could be able to help you, considering the arc reactor overload you were struck by caused you to go into a coma."
"...Oh. Well, did it do anything to me?"
"Put some clothes on, and we'll take a walk," he said and he left so the boy could change.
Immediately, Max noticed one of the side effects of the arc reactor exposure. He was able to get up very easily, something he did not notice before, his limbs weren't in a state of atrophy, he could move them very easily. Also when he put a fresh pair of pants on and removed his hospital gown, he saw that he had grown more muscular, even had a six pack.
"...Wow...," was all he could say.
He finished up and found Fury still waiting for him. Max was now wearing dark blue jeans, a SHIELD grey long sleeve shirt and wore military boots as well.
"I'm gonna assume that you noticed the side effects," he said as they began to walk around.
"Yeah. If I were to guess, I would say that the exposure seems to have increased my body functions such as my metabolism, causing muscular growth and advanced healing."
"That was the doctor's guess as well. Now, listen...our scientists seem to believe that you could be given certain...unknown abilities because of this exposure."
"I get hit by an explosion of unstable energy and they think I'll be given superpowers?," Max questioned. "I think your scientists read too many comic books."
"No matter what, your body has been changed dramatically by this experience," Nick said. "Many people here believe that you could be the solution to cracking Dr. Erskine's formula."
"Erskine? The German scientist who developed the serum that created Captain America?"
"That is correct."
"And what do you think?," he asked and Fury smirked.
"I think...that you should be able to go home, and be with your parents. Would you like to call them?"
"Nah, I'll surprise them. One last question: How far is Malibu?"
"Your House is only about an hour or so away by car," a voice behind them said and they turned to see a familiar face.
"I know you, you're Coulson right?," Max asked and he nodded.
"Agent Coulson has offered to drop you off at home for you," Fury said beginning to walk away. "So long for now, Max. I have a feeling we'll be meeting again soon."
Max then just shrugged and walked with Coulson to his car, a 1962 Chevrolet Corvette.
"Nice car."
"Thank you. Her name's Lola," he commented, as they got in. But then the car changed suddenly, and began to hover.
"Magnetic levitation. Impressive. So what did I miss?"
"Well, Obadiah Stane is dead. The world knows that your father is Iron Man and the Stark Expo has just started."
"Not going to miss the man at all and why didn't I think of the name Iron Man?," Max said, saying the second part to himself. "Did you guys keep my phone?"
"No but we got you an updated one with all of your information on it," he said giving it to him as they were already halfway.
"Thanks. And thank you for helping my parents two years ago."
"Of course. It's what we do."
Max turned his attention to his new phone and quickly found his best friend's number.
"Hello, Shuri," he simply said. It did not take long to get a response.
"MAX!!! Thank goodness you're alright!!!," she responded. "When did you wake up?"
"About an hour or so ago. I still can't believe it's been two years."
"I know. When your father told me, T'Challa immediately left to go and check up on you. I tried to go, but Baba wouldn't let me."
"It's alright," he assured hers. "I'm gonna keep my promise and visit Wakanda as soon as I can."
"Thank you," she said. "That would make me feel better. You are the only friend I have besides my family."
"And you're mine," he said back.", then noticed they were parking. "Gotta go. Just got home."
"Okay, I'll let my family know you're back too. Goodbye, Max."
"Goodbye, Shuri."
They then parked on a road and drove the rest of the way up to the house and he stopped in front of the door.
"Thanks for the lift," Max said.
"You're welcome," Coulson said. "We may need to have you come back for some tests at some point in the close future, but we'll let you know ahead of time."
Max simply nodded and Coulson flew off and Max walked over to the front porch.
"Hey, JARVIS."
'Max!! How good it is to see you again!,' the AI said. 'I shall inform Mr. Stark and Miss Potts immediately.'
"No, wait!! Let's surprise them shall we?"
'...Very well, sir. Welcome home.'
He unlocked the door and he walked in to see his good friend and bodyguard asleep on the couch. Max quietly walked over to him and until he was over his head and slowly woke him up.
Happy slowly opened his eyes to see Max looking down at him and he let a scream and accidentally fell off the couch.
'I believe you've frightened Mr. Hogan, Max,' JARVIS commented.
"That was the plan, buddy," Max said helping the man up, and immediately getting a bear hug from him. "Nice to see you too, Happy."
"When did you wake up?!," he asked letting him go.
"Let's see. About... an hour ago. Mom and Dad here?"
"Yeah, there downstairs. It's good to see you again, kid."
He nodded and gave him a fist bump. He turned and headed down into the ship and saw that a lot had changed in two years, as expected. The shop was much bigger and and there were three large displays in one corner. Inside them were the suits Mark One to Three. Max then saw his parents clinking their wine glasses together.
"Congratulations, Miss Potts," Tony said. "On officially becoming the CEO of Stark Industries."
"Not the only thing to be happy about," Max said, startling them both and causing them to look at the source of the voice. When they turned their eyes widened greatly but they had huge smiles on their faces as they ran over to hug their son tightly.
"MAX!!!," Pepper yelled, holding her boy tightly. "You're awake!!"
"So I've been told. I would've called but I wanted to surprise you, did I succeed?"
"Uh...yeah!! You succeeded!!," Tony exclaimed. "When did you wake up?"
"An hour ago. Agent Coulson dropped me off," Max explained.
"Did you tell Shuri?"
"First person I told."
"Good, because she would regularly ask about you."
Tony nodded in agreement and hugged his son again. After a couple of hours of catching up and simply enjoying their time reunited again, Tony and Pepper called it a night. Max decided to stay up longer, saying that he's slept for good long while, something both of his parents understood.
Max began to just tinker with some stuff in the shop, simply passing the time. He began to catch up on the details he missed in two years. He was now at a table when his arm slid across it to reach a tool and his phone was pushed off the table. All of a sudden, time went into slow motion for him. He was shocked especially when he saw that he was moving normally. When he saw the phone was break against the floor, he quickly ran over and grabbed it, then everything went back to normal.
"What just happened?," he asked himself. "JARVIS, play any security footage of me of a few seconds ago."
JARVIS obeyed and showed a screen of him and he saw the phone fall and he just disappeared.
"Slow it down."
The AI did do and he could see perfectly of what had happened. He had moved so fast, it was nearly imperceptible to the naked eye.
"...JARVIS... delete this footage and any future footage that may occur," Max ordered. "Let's keep this between us, okay?"
'Very well, sir,' JARVIS said. 'You have my word. I shall not inform your parents or anybody else without your permission.'
"Get me Nick Fury's contact information."
He got and then called Fury, who almost immediately answered.
"Mr. Stark," he said. "How may I help you?"
"...Tell your SHIELD scientists I said 'I'm sorry.' Because it's seems as though that they were right."
Hope this was good. Next part will be meeting Natasha Romanoff and Whiplash attacking, then Max will go back to SHIELD to have some tests run on him. See ya later.
