3. Chapter 3

Ch 3

Ivan Vanko was in his prison cell when two masked guys went in, killed the guards with their machine guns, and yanked Vanko out of his cell and put him in their car before driving to their secret hideout. The masked guys took Vanko to a glowing purple man. He was Living Laser aka Arthur Parks.

"The handcuffs aren't really necessary, are they?" Living Laser asked.

The masked guys took off Vanko's handcuffs.

"You must be wondering why you are here." Living Laser said. "I am Arthur Parks. But you can call me Living Laser. And the reason why I am glowing so much is because AIM did some experiments but I escaped."
Living Laser paused dramatically before continuing.

"And I need to get back to being a normal person. What I saw you do to Tony Stark on that track, how you stepped up to him in front of God and everybody. That was... Wow." Living Laser continued.

"I know you wouldn't pass up the chance to kill Stark again and you'll get another try but bring his body back."

There was a long silence.

"Okay, have you been hearing everything I've been saying or you don't speak English?" Living Laser asked. "Because I can get a translator if you want."
"I'll do it." Vanko replied.

Then they both laughed.

"See?" Living Laser asked, grinning. "I knew we were good. But you can't take on him alone. That's why I have Titanium Man and Firepower."

The door opened and two men with armored suits were on the other side as if they were there the entire time. Living Laser smiled. This was going to be fun to watch on the news.
