"I Don't Want You To Change"
Please enjoy and review!
After the celebration, Davey had confessed about her graduating early and Tatia had thrown a fit over this, upset that she wouldn't be able to help her daughter get ready for prom or go to her graduation ceremony.
Davey had shrugged all of that off, saying that there were more important things in the world than prom and graduation.
Jun had decided to punish her sister by forcing her to be her model for a line of prom dresses she was creating to show off to her teachers.
That was the perfect punishment since Davey hated having to be forced into the different dresses made up of various materials and being poked by needles by accident.
During this, Tony had called a press conference and told them about shutting down the weapons' department of the company and that he had some ideas that would benefit everyone.
He had also put his acting skills to good use when he came face to face with Stane, pretending everything was fine between them and he had no idea that he was the one who hired those men to kill him.
Tony then rushed off to his lab to work on a secret project to help people and fix the damages that had been caused by his illegally purchased weapons.
After Davey helped him improve the arc reactor, Tony had started working on a suit and requested his daughter for her art skills to design it.
"Okay, how about this?" Davey asked as she held up a design of the armor.
Looking over the sketch pad, Tony found that the armor seemed to have a humanlike appearance and it had the contours a human body would have while it was also colored gold and blue.
"Looks good, but I think it should be gold and red. Those are more my colors." Tony said.
"Fine, but is the design good or should I do something else about the body shape?" Davey asked.
"I think it looks perfect. But we need to work on the thrusters so we can make it fly." Tony told her.
"Remind me again why you guys are doing this?" Veemon questioned.
"Because I need this suit to help me track down the people who have my weapons and stop them from using them to hurt people." Tony stated.
Although Davey was worried about the danger her father would be putting himself in, she was proud of him for wanting to make a difference and fixing the damages Howard and Stane had both done over the years.
"Okay, let's get started. But still, Dad, I wish you would use something other palladium for the arc reactor. I don't think that element if going to last without a few complications." Davey advised.
"Well, princess, you find a new element that is more stable and is a better match for the palladium, and I'll use it. Until then, this is what we've got to work with." Tony commented.
Rolling her eyes at this, Davey then got to work with her father, working on the mechanics for the suit and with melding the metal together into the shape they needed it to be.
Tony also made it so that the suit would only respond to himself, JARVIS and his daughter since they were the only ones he trusted completely with his technology.
Once the complicated part of building the suit was done, Tony had his daughter sent back home, assuring her he could handle testing the flight and adding extra features and requested she prepare her presentation for her ideas to better Stark Industries.
Deep down, Tony was giddy that he was going to be talking business with his daughter and was excited to see what kind of ideas she had come up with.
Returning to her house, Davey walked inside and carried a sleeping Veemon up to her bedroom, setting him down on the bed.
Smiling down at the sleeping dragon, Davey then went into her bathroom to take a quick shower before she got to work on getting her project ideas in order.
Washing her body and hair of the scent of smoke and oil, the girl then dressed into a pair of jeans and a green tube top before she clasped the Soul Stone back around her neck and dried her hair.
Staring at her reflection for a few seconds as she coated her lips with lip balm, her eyes then moved down to the Soul Stone and she gently touched it, feeling a bit more at ease and relaxed with it.
She still worried over the power the stone possessed, but constantly worrying over it wouldn't help her live her life or get things done.
Once she was finished getting ready, Davey went downstairs and yelped in shock when she found a familiar figure sitting at the table, sipping from a glass of water.
Hearing the startled noise, Jace looked over and his blue eyes took in the form of his krolik, noticing that she appeared healthier and happier than she had been last time he saw her.
"Hey." He greeted.
Calming her racing heart, Davey managed to give the man a glare, but it wasn't intimidating at all and it made him grin in amusement.
"I hate it when you do that. How long have you been here anyway?" Davey asked as she walked over to the coffee maker.
"A few days. It wasn't safe for me to head back to base yet." Jace explained.
While he snuck his way here, he made sure no one had followed him, not even the people he worked with.
This girl was something only for him to enjoy and he wouldn't allow his bosses to ruin that.
Despite what the men told him, he was entitled to have something good and only for him in his life especially after everything he had been forced to do for the organization he worked for.
"Do you have any injuries you need me to fix up?" Davey asked as she waited for the coffee to be done.
"I wanted to see you. Make sure you were okay." Jace said.
That confession brought a smile to Davey's face as she turned to look at the man, seeing he was avoiding looking at her, appearing shy after what he told her.
"I'm doing much better now, thanks. My dad's back home and we know who was behind the abduction. When we've got proof, that son of a bitch is going to be completely ruined." Davey stated.
Head picking up, Jace noticed that the girl had taken on a darker tone and he was able to see the hatred shining in her orange flecked eyes.
He didn't like the sudden change in her one bit and he didn't want the anger she had inside of her to consume who she was and change her personality completely.
"Don't do that." He snapped.
Stunned by the angry tone he had, Davey looked at Jace as he stood up in a huff and stormed up to her, placing his hands on her shoulders.
"You are the only thing in my life that is good and pure, kind and gentle. I like that about you and I don't want you to ever change. Don't let this guy change you into someone you're not." Jace told her.
Staring up into the beautiful eyes she adored so much, Davey saw that Jace was being serious and didn't like the fear he had for her shining in his eyes.
Reaching up, she cupped his face between her hands, thumbs rubbing over the beard he was growing out and he nuzzled into her hand making her smile at him.
"Don't worry. I won't let this guy change me. But he needs to be stopped. Stane is an evil man and he's already hurt countless innocent people. He needs to stop before he hurts anyone else." Davey told the man.
"I understand. But I still don't like that you're getting involved in this kind of stuff. I'd rather keep you locked up here where you would be far away from harm." Jace stated.
"So would my parents and sister, but that doesn't stop me from doing anything." Davey said.
Hearing the coffee maker making a noise to signal that it was ready, Davey walked over to it to pour herself a mug, but paused with a frown on her face.
"You took off didn't you?" She asked.
When there was no answer, Davey turned around and found Jace had disappeared which made her roll her eyes in aggravation.
"One of these days, I will be putting a bell on him." She huffed.
