Chapter 3: Excuse Me?
With a final wink to the giggling Pepper Tony made his way to the sitting room. What he found there was nothing like he expected. Rather than finding some chunky,sweaty old fat cat looking to make a deal with him for his technology waiting with his Japanese correspondent he found a pretty girl. Sure she appeared young eighteen or nineteen at the most but she was already a stunner. She stood as close as she could manage to the door without seeming rude looking around the room rapidly her posture stiff and rigid. She was a petite thing downright tiny with a slender but full figure and waist length wavy blue-black hair. As he approached those wandering eyes snapped to him and he was finally able to make out her eye color. They were amazing. A pale blue ringed by a darker cobalt shade that seemed to peer straight into his soul. But those eyes were too old, too wary for someone of her age. They reminded him so much of Romanoff's that it sent a shudder down his spine. Turning his gaze from the battle weary eyes of the young woman he raised a snarky brow at Tanaka who had risen from the couch and now stood beside the girl.
"What's this Tanaka an early Christmas present?"
Tanaka gazed at him dryly as the young woman furrowed her brows and sent a disgruntled scowl his way. She looked like an angry kitten.
"You could say that. Mr. Stark let me introduce you to Higurashi, Kagome. Your daughter."
