Howard Stark is in his living room talking to Anton Vanko. As they are discussing about the Arc Reactor technology and how it will change the world. "Your English is getting Better Anton"
"Perhaps. Whetever or not the "Unity Project" of yours will bear fruit is another matter entirely considering the posturing of our nation coverments"
"Forget about them. my military contracts are merely the shortest distance between two points, think. about the childrens we'll both may have someday, thats our priority, the point is if i want you on my team, you're on my team. no questions asked. i've earned that"
"Very Well. Howard. As always i am humbled by your trust. and yet i must express my continued concerns this arc reactor technology. the implications alone of such a devior even existing have you not thought about these things?"
Howard grabs a cup and drinks. "I've done my investigation Anton. it will work, it can exist. once we get the Ark reactor going it will change the world."
"Who cares if it changes the world or not. As long as we make money we ll be set. Besides, we re big inventors with big dreams."
"we indeed are. and i'll make whatever it takes to make those dreams a reality. it will work, i've shared my investigation with you. it will work. we're serveing a global community that doesnt even recognize its own existence, i've played the game for years. Anton. so have you. its time to change the game. we dont have to walk that path that leads towards mutually assured destruction. theres another future out there waiting for us"
March 18, 1967. Stark Industries. California
We see Howard and Anton next to the arc reactor, with tons of guards behind Vanko, he's arrested. Howard is shocked. "Anton please tell me you re joking."
"I am not. I am a spy. I did what anyone in my position would have done so there s no need to be shocked."
Howard looks at Vanko still in shock. "But why did you do this?"
"Stark, you know me better than anyone. This is all for the money." The agents take Vanko him away. Two more agents walk up to Howard. "Sir we ve rounded up the rest of the Vanko family we ll take things from here."
"Thanks." the agent leaves, as Stark sadly looks at the Arc reactor, as someone grabs him by the shoulder, its Obadiah Stane. "I know this is tough on you but you didn t have a choice. Anton was a crook. what choice did you have?, You took that commie under your wing and he stabbed you in the back."
"Obadiah..."
"I know thiscuts closer to the bone because of your belief int he arc reactor...i am just saying that maybe You should take this incident as some sort of sign. Listen man, I m here for you if you need anything, just like i've always been, but it s time to get back to what we do best." the two men look up at the reactor
