The group exit the compound

"So...that Yelena chick...she seems pretty intense." Zack says awkwardly.

"Yeah but if she's anything like Nat...I'm pretty sure we're in good hands." Peter says as Sonic nods.

"So what's the game plan for us?" Kim asks as Peter rubs the back of his head.

"I haven't gotten that far yet... Maybe grab something to eat and chill out for a bit? We need to see Dr Richards anyway for the upgrades on Alita." Peter says as Jason smiles.

"Jason...what are you thinking?" Billy asks.

"Nothing, just realized that my parents texted. "Come to the house really quick, something we need to discuss! It's good news!" Maybe it's college stuff?" Jason wondered as Tommy nodded.

"Yeah...I need to check my mail to see if I got something from MIT." Trini said as Peter's eyes widened.

"You're already applying for MIT?" Peter asked.

"Yeah! I may be a Ranger but we have one more year of school til Senior Year. I can't wait to see what they said!" Trini says as Sonic just crossed his arms a bit.

"I have no idea what you're talking about but I'm sure it's great!" Sonic says with a smile.

"So...Baxter Building it is then?" Billy asks.

"Yeah!" The group said in unison as they enter Jason's car.

Minutes later at the Baxter Building.

"So, Dr Richards? You're saying if this works... I'll have some new features?" Alita asks as Dr Richards works on a holographic computer.

"Yes, Alita! As a matter of fact. Your android technology is so fascinating. With the amount of research that myself, King T'Challa and Mr Stark went into it. Our technology should be accessible to you as well as providing much needed updates. For example, you'll be able to project shields and even fly on your own!" Richards answers as Alita looks in astonishment.

"Will I still be me?" Alita asks.

"You'll be you as you can be. When we're done, you're gonna have a new car smell!" Johnny Storm answers jokingly as Alita rolled her eyes.

"Alright Alita! Are you ready to begin?" Richards asked.

"As ready as I'll ever be good doctor! I'll see you in a few hours!" Alita says as Peter and the Rangers enter the room.

"Ah, Mr Parker and company! You're here just in time!" Richards says as Thing waves as he is eating a cartoonishly oversized burger.

"How's everything going Dr Richards?" Trini asks.

"We just started! We're about to start the process momentarily! Please feel free to have a seat and watch the magic happen!" Richards says as Alita smiles.

"Thanks for being here guys." Alita says as she lays down on the table. Closing her eyes as she powers herself off.

Small lasers and claws begin to disassemble Alita as repairs and adjustments are made to her body.

"So you're saying that she's gonna be able to fly? As well as project shields? That's pretty sick!" Zack asks as Reed nods.

"Small Jet propulsion systems are being placed in her systems so they'll activate on command. We're also giving her a failsafe should the problem arise where she goes AWOL." Reed explains

"Wait, AWOL?" Peter asks.

"As in if for whatever reason she gets taken control of or if she completely loses it." Ben Grimm answers as Zack puts on a face of worry.

"What does this failsafe do?" Billy asks.

"It will shut her down and restart herself. It's as simple as restarting your computer or console." Sue Storm says as Jason nods.

"But even then, we've discovered that Alita has a self programmed firewall that is ALMOST unbreakable! You'd have to be a genius in martian to get through it! Whoever built her or at least built her body must've been a brilliant robotics expert!" Reed says.

"Please, by all means. Do what you need to! She'll be here a while!" Johnny Storm said as the group nodded and left the building.

Just then, Peter's phone rang.

"Hey Aun…Tony? Whoa, whoa slow…Wait WHAT?!"

"Petey?" Trini asked in worry, which everyone shared when they saw peter hurriedly slapping his webshooters on.

"Whoa, Pete! Cool it!" Zack called out. "Where's the..?"

"Pepper's baby is coming!" Peter shouted.

And instantly, the Rangers and Alita began toi panic, seeminglty forgetting how to leave the Baxter building and running around screaming and shrieking.

Reed just smiled and laughed a bit as he let Alita go.

"Ah, tyo be young again. Hobbie?"

A robot flew up to the smartest man in world.

"Read the Fantasti-Car and send our youungd friends to where they need to go."

SMPR

An hour later, Peter, the Rangers and Alit found themselves waiting impatiently for a ny needs. The New Mutants had shown up as well, along with Sonic and an elderly Steve Rogers. May was the calmest person in the lobby of Stark tower, although she was smiling with nostalgia, regaling anyone who'd listen (everyone) about how worried Peter's father Richard had been when Mary went into labour.

"The fact Tony's up there is all the proof I need he;'ll be a good dad." Steve mused just as a ping filled the air and an elevator door opened.

"Great, only one mass chat call to make." Tony smiled proudly, fighting back tears as he presented a bundle. "Allow me to proudly introduce; Morgan Stark."

Inside was an adorable baby girl, snuggled in her daddy's arms, elicinting many coos and awes.

Tony spied Peter and motioned him over, then put his daughter in Peter's arms. Peter tensed for a minute before he relaxed and smiled at the baby girl.

"Pep's sleeping now, but when she wakes up? We were wondering if…you'd…" Tony struggled. "…Consider becoming her goddad in the, lets be honest, likely event something happens?"

Peter promptly fainted, Billy managing to grab the baby.

"…Too soon?" Tony asked.

Been far too long and for that I am so, so sorry!

I hope this short chapter makes up for the wait; next time we begin an original arc from justimtaylor!

Keep safe!
