//

"Why choose the nickname Ghost when there's other cool nickname?" Minu lean into his chair, disappointed with the nickname that Harley decided.

"Have you ever played Modern Warfare? Like bro, they are way too good." He stared at his average techs, looking at the specified symbols.

"Still, you could be, I don't know, Sekiro?"

Harley shoot up from the bed and look at his friend. "Are you joking? That's a game name."

"And your point is, Mr. Ghost?" Minu dramatically blinked his eyes. "Fine, you got me there. Besides, its cool because I'm invisible!" Harley roll over to his phone and unlock it. "Hey Snydex! Does the nickname "ghost" sounds cool to you?"

"It sure is, Harls." The AI agreed. "Damn that robot. At least she got cool nicknames unlike Ghost right here." He rolled his eyes.

"Shut up, son of Yoon."

"Oh, so now you're Thor?" Minu laughed. Harley kick the chair and made Minu fell onto the floor. "Damn it, Harls!" He just laugh it off.

"Whatever, Minu. I gotta go right now, see you tomorrow? Wait, what's your first class?" Harley asked.

"It's Mathematics for Engineering. Dude, we're in the same section, you dumbass." He playfully punched Harley on the shoulder.

"Whatever. See you tomorrow, love you, no homo." He open the window and step out from the apartment. "Yeah, no homo bro." Minu rolls back to his computer and play his games.

Harley climb down the stairs and walk back to his apartment. He glance over to the Stark Tower.

"Because we're connected."

He shrug it off and just walk away from the building. He stop his track, sighing heavily. "Hey Snydex, find the fastest route to the Stark's Tower."

Harley put down his skateboard and he head towards the building. "Hack or just, present?"

"Its up to you, Harls. As long as you know what you're doing." Snydex responded. Hack it is.

As soon as he arrive at the tower, he keep his skateboard hidden in the bushes and went to the alley. "Show me the backdoor."

He saw few visuals coming up on his phone. "Cameras and alarms?" He put on his mask as a preparation.

A lot more visuals came up. He didn't want to take a risk but he's just curious how Tony is doing nowadays since Tennessee.

He sneak into the backdoor with least visual safety. "Can you hack the, the uh, sorry I forgot the word." Harley sturggled with his brain as he try to think of a word.

"Do you want to me to find the code so you can have access through the backdoor?"

"Yeah! Backdoor, codes. Help me."

He connect his phone with the panel code and Snydex try to find the correct codes. "Please, don't get caught. I can't even run, my skateboard is in the bushes." He begged.

As the door opened, he stealthily walk through the narrow corridor and slip a key card in his pocket. "Who the hell is dumb enough to leave their key card?" He shook his head in disappointment.

"Elevator access with the least security?"

"To your right, elevator for deliveries. You can use that elevator to go to the labs and research area."

Harley has his doubts with the AI but he just followed. He scan the card and an unidentified voice came from the elevator.

"Hello, Mr. Smith. Where would you like to head?"

Harley got scared for a second. What if his voice doesn't match with this "Smith" person? "Going to 41st floor."

He furrowed his eyebrows, staring at the ceiling in confusion. As he reach the 41st floor, he saw bunch of rooms and one of them is the "Smith" person. "I guess he's an engineer."

He walk through the corridors and recognize a name. Tony Stark.

He put his phone on the panel code and ask Snydex to hack the panel.

As the door opened, he saw a big lab with modern tech lying around. But one thing that isn't there is the Iron Man suit. "I guess he has another labs. Oh well." He stumbled upon a toolbox, scattering the tools. "Peter? Did you bring down the foods?"

Harley got panicked so bad and he went to hide behind a desk. "Peter?" Tony stand up and look at the door, but there's no one. "Is this building haunted?" He just shrug it off and continue to work on his things.

"Hey Mr. Stark, why do you order 4 boxes of pizza, there's on- Okay, who the heck is that?" Harley's eyes widen and he stand up quickly, running for the door.

"Wha- Hey! Who's that!? FRIDAY, lock the door!"

Harley was about to make it to the door but instead he got his face slammed on the door. He groans in pain and he just run around the lab, stumbling over stuffs.

"Peter! To the right! I'll slide to the left." Tony went to the left and open his arms wide. "Cha cha real smooth- Fuck-" Harley slipped out the word.

"This ain't the time dude!" Peter charged toward him but he got away. "Snydex! Override and open the door!" He throw his phone onto the door and he look behind his back.

"Whoever you are, stand down right now." Tony carefully approach the boy. "Wait, let me breath first for god sake." He put his hands on his knees and breath heavily.

"Not an enhanced invidual, but capable of hacking into my tower. Who are you?" Tony furrowed his eyebrows.

"I am..." Harley debate whether he wanted to say it or not. "Ghost. I'm Ghost, the infamous hacker."

Tony and Peter cringed their faces. "Dude, that's lame. Do you have any better names?" Peter laughed.

Harley just rolled his eyes and his mask fell out from his face. He immediately cover his face with his arms. "You look familiar." Tony squinted his eyes, slowly approaching him.

"No I'm not." He protested. "Peter, you know what to do." Tony raised his eyebrows. Peter take out his webshooters and web Harley's arm, making him fall backward.

"Dude! Its sticking onto my face!"

Peter rush onto him and and rip the web shooters. His arms feels restless so he just let it fall onto the floor. "Name?"

"Guess." He block the light from his eyes but Tony misunderstood it, thinking he was gonna attack them. "Dude, calm down! The light is bright, its hurting my eyes."

"I ask for a name, Mr. Ghost." Tony insisted. "Fine, Harley Keener. You might forgot about me but its okay, everyone eventually forget about me." He laughed.

"Keener? You're the kid from Tennessee! Tony told me about you, because we're connected." Peter laughed.

Tony widen his eyes and he observe the kid. "FRIDAY, scan this kid."

"I'm 19, not a kid anymore." He smirked.

"Harley Keener from Tennessee. 19 years old. Moved to New York because got offered in mechanical engineering course at Columbia."

Tony gasped and he help Harley up. "Why did you hacked into the tower? You could've just used the front door."

"I thought you forgot about me so I hacked instead, to see how you're doing."

"You hacked into the tower. Stark's Tower, specifically." Peter froze, feeling shocked and realizing that a 19 year old kid is capable to hack into the Stark's Tower.

"Yeah, I know." Harley shrugged. Tony invited Harley to join their lab sessions and the three have never stop talking and laughing.

"What a nice family I have."
