I'm sorry kid but I think you have something that belongs to me
He pointed at the mask
the boy looked at his hands
'but I found it.'
Tony tried to stay calm.
its just a kid.its just a kid.
'please Kid. I really nead that.'
'But if found it! It was laying on the street so I picked it up and its mine now.'
'kid! ' - Tony got angry- that mask belongs to me. It's really important to me.' I'll do whatever you want, just give me that mask!'
the boy looked at him.
'anything I want? '
'YES , would you please just give me the mask now?! ' Tony had no patience left
the boy put his hands,holding the mask, behind his back.
'okay. I will give you the mask. But you need to do me a favor.'
'Anything! ' Tony answered.
'just give me the god damn mask '
At the Tower
Tony entered the Tower over the huge balcony.
He rushed into the building where he saw all the others standing. Nat,Steve,pepper,happy,Bruce and Thor were standing in a circle.
Sam,Bruce and Clint were talking to...
wait a minute tony thought.
thats loki- he looked at the 4 men talking casually.
why was loki here?
They all turned when they realised he was back.
Nat's mouth snapped open.
The saw the mask in his hand.
They came running to him
'Tony!' Pepper said
'IS THAT PETER'S MASK?! ' Steve asked hysterically
'WHERE DID YOU FIND THAT?' Nat was eager to find out
'Why is Loki here?' Was Tony's first question
'oh' Thor answered 'yeah he wanted to come with me. He's helping us to find your son'
Tony made a face
'HE wants to HELP to find MY son?' he asked sacrastically
Loki rolled his eyes.
'yeah i know, I thought it was kinda funny too at first but he actually wants to help'
Thor was fast to answer Tony's comment
'let's not talk about that right now okay?!' -Natasha cut in- 'Tony, where did you find his mask? what does this mean?'
Tony agreed, Loki isnt that important right now
'I saw some kid with it, he said he found it on the street.He showed me where he found it'
'and did you find anything?' Steve asked with furious eyes
'no of course not, it snowed last night, remember? not anything to find'
'okay but we can work with his mask' Bruce said looking into Tony's eyes
'yes, exactly' Tony confirmed
'then what are we waiting for?' -Happy frowned
They all rushed to the labs.
'okay let's find that kid' Bruce said while turning to the Tech and searching for his stuff
Clint looked at the Mask.
'woah'
'what?' Sam answered scared
'look at the mask'
the Avengers looked at it. And when they saw what Clint was talking about they all gasped.
The Mask was full of blood.
Tony held his breath.
A tear ran down Nat's face.
Steve took her into his arms.
'that doesnt look too good' Bucky said at the sight.
'well we better get going fast' Bruce intruced
Tony turned around to Bruce. You could tell he was close to letting the tears fall.
He looked into bruce's eyes.
The scientist looked at Tony. His eyes filled with panic.
He glanced at the man. Saying everything is gonna be alright
tony closed his eyes, took a deep breath and began working with bruce.
They checked the technology in the mask. everything they could.
Suddenly Tony found something.
He narrowed his eyebrows in confusion.
'I think I found something'
The avengers came closer.
Tony pressed something in the Mask and a blue Hologram came out.
It was Peter.
Peter was sitting on some rooftop.
'Thats the day he went missing' Pepper realised.
The kid Held his mask in his hands and smiled at it.
The Avengers were standing in the lab, all with big curious eyes and trying to hold back their tears
then Peter started talking at the mask
'Hi Mr. Stark! ' he said in his usual overly happy voice
'It's kinda weird talking to my mask, I'm not gonna lie haha. But I thought I'd try it out.
I have no idea if you'll ever see this.
I just wanted to thank you for everything.
You know? Not just the suit. I mean, no, not in that way, the suit is amazing Mr. Stark!Thank you so much.
Tony smiled
I mean everything else as well. That you let me work with you and let me be trained by you and all the avengers. Thank you for letting you be my mentor. And of course for letting me stay with you. I didn't have such a normal live... But I'm very grateful to have you in my life.
And biiiiggg thanks ro the others as well.
a big smile formed on the avengers' faces
Pepper,Happy,Nat,Steve,Bucky,Sam,Rhodey,Thor,Clint,Bruce..everybody.
I mean, even Thor's supposed to be evil brother was so nice to me.
they all turned to loki. He looked away
He is not as bad as you always told me Mr. Stark. He's actually very nice.
Yeah so anyways , just wanted to tell you that. Oh and before I turn this off, I'm already sorry for being late to dinner before-hand.
Peter turned his head to the side.
Karen I just sensed something approaching, could you check my surround-
-it was cut off.-
The avengers stood there in silence
All with watery eyes.
Pepper walked over to Tony and hugged him tight.
'We're gonna find your boy Tony'
They worked on Peter's Mask the whole day.
Until they found something
'we might have found a way to track peter's suit' Bruce said to the Avengers Bunch sitting in the living room.
'what? that's amazing'
Steve said with a bright smile on his face.
'how long will it take?' was Bucky's first question.
'we dont know exactly but we're guessing just a few more hours' Tony answered his questionthey let out a reliefed sigh
'okay; so go go go! ' Nat shouted at them
Tony and Bruce went to the labs again.
'wow, I've never seen him like that' Steve Said as Tony and Bruce were out of the room'Hm?' Bucky questioned'Tony' Steve looked around
'He's really messed up'
'understandable' Nat said,almost sounding offended
'I know,I know, Yes of course- Steve tried to explain himself- I mean, I've just never seen Tony Stark THIS broken. He was always the strong Tony Stark. You know what I mean? he could take everything. ''i think I'm getting what you're saying' Rhodey looked at Steve'When I got to know him I saw him as the cold hearted man in the iron armor, but thats just the act he puts on around people. He actually overthinks a lot and is very capable of emotions.I remember when he used to have the panic attacks about new yor- 'Steve interrupted him
'what do you mean? panic attacks? ''oh' - Rhodey tried to explain - yeah I guess he didnt tell anybody , he used to have these horrible panic attacks and Nightmares about New York. When he, you know? was in space, sacrifised himself n all that. It was terrible. He couldn't sleep for days straight. And every time he hot reminded the slightest bit he had one of his panic attacks. They were really bad. He wasnt able to breathe correctly and his legs gave in all the time.I hated seeing him like that.'The other Avengers sat there with open mouths.
Tony had panic attacks? nightmares?
why did he never tell anyone about that?
'I didn't know anything about that' Clint inserted
the others all nodded agreeing.
'This is really messing him up right now'Sam started' he loves peter so bad' Pepper continued
'He isn't himself without his boy'
'we have to get him back as fast as possible' Steve said with a serious face.
2 hours later Tony and Bruce got back from the lab.
'and?''we got him'
