Sally's P.O.V

We were walking into the air force and over herd Rhodey talking about the future of air combat.

"Colonel, why not a pilot without the plane?" dad said "Look who fell out of the sky Mr Tony and Miss Sally Stark" Rhodey said.

"Speaking of manned or unmanned, you gotta get him to tell you about the time he guessed wrong at spring break  Just remember that spring break 1987 That lovely lady you woke up with" dad started "Don't do that" Rhodey said trying to get dad to stop.

"What was his name Was it lvan" dad continued "Don't do that okay don't do that" Rhodey said again "Give us a couple minutes" Rhodey said to the air men.

"I'm surprised" he said "Why?" dad me said at the same time confused "I swear I didn't expect to see you walking around so soon" he said.

"I'm doing a little better than walking" dad said "Really" "Yeah Rhodey  I'm working on something big I came to talk to you I want you to be a part of it" dad said.

"You're about to make a whole lot of people around here real happy cause that little stunt at the press conference, that was a doozy" Rhodey said.

"This is not for the military I'm not its different" dad said "What You're a humanitarian now or something" Rhodey said "I need you to listen to me" dad tried to reason with him.

"No what you need is time to get your minds right" Rhodey said dad smirked "I'm serious" he said staring at dad.

"Okay it's nice seeing you guys" Rhodey said 'Thanks' dad together 'well that went well' I thought.

I walked into the basement and dad had his original suit in front of him and was upgrading it.

"Dad can you chuck one over to me" I asked walking over to my computer and dad swiped one over I start deleting parts and upgrading it.

Two hours later I was working on my second boot and was almost finished dad had just finished and I was watching him began to power up the boot he went up smashed into the roof then fell.

"Holly shit" I yelled running over to where dad was then dummy sprayed him with the fire extinguisher then I started laughing "little help" dad groaned I walked over and helped him up. He sat on his spiny chair took of his boots then walked out of the basement.

I finished my boot a couple seconds later I had finished and began working on our flying issues.

Then dad came back down "how about we put repulsores  in the hand of the suit" I asked dad "that should work" dad said looking over my boot.

He began working on the blue prints for one I got an apple sat on the spiny chair started eating and got a hollow pen and began drawing up blue prints on the hollow table I jumped up put my arm in made sure it fit put the repulsor in my hand I chucked the apple in the bin and began working.

One hour later mum was at the door she typed in the code walked over and said "I've been buzzing did you hear the intercom" she said.

"What?" I asked and mum put some stuff on the desk "Obadiah upstairs" she said "great" dad said lifting up the flight stabiliser "I thought you done making weapons" she said.

"It is this is a flight stabiliser completely harmless" dad said pressing the button he then fell back and smashed in to me "oww" I yelled.

"Didn't expect that" dad said and helped me up. Dad took off his flight stabiliser and walked up the stairs and I following slowly behind dad went to the freezer to get ice while I got I piece of pizza "went that bad huh" I said sitting on the couch.

"Just because I brought pizza back from New York doesn't mean it went bad" Obie said "Sure doesn't. Oh, boy" dad said putting the bag of ice on my head I winced.

"Yeah completely harmless" I said mocking dad while he got I piece of pizza "I said sorry" dad said "no u didn't" I said "well I have now" dad said.

"What happened" Obie asked "nothing" dad said and Obie stared at me "I fell" I said trying to make it convening since we weren't telling him what we were making.

"It would have gone better if you were there" Obie said continuing on with the earlier convocation "You told me to lay low that's what I've been doing" dad said "what?" I said having no clue what Obie was talking about "lay low and you take care of all" dad said.

"Hey come on in public the press this was a board of directors meeting" Obie said "This was a board of directors meeting" dad cut in "the board is claiming you have posttraumatic stress" Obie said getting to it "posttraumatic stress you kidding?" I said almost laughing not realising how serious this is.

"There calming that you have it to" Obie said "They're filing an injunction" Obie said "A what" dad said "They want to lock you out" Obie said "What even me?" I asked Obie nodded.

"Why cause the stocks dipped 40 points We knew that was gonna happen" dad said "Fifty-six and a half" mum said "It doesn't matter we own the controlling interest in the company" dad said "Tony, the board has rights, too They're making the case that you and your new direction isn't in the company's best interest" Obie said.

"I'm being responsible that's a new direction for me, for the company" dad said "I mean me on the company's behalf being responsible for the way that" dad said "This is great" he said getting up.

"Oh come on Tony, Tony" Obie said getting up "I'll be in the shop" dad said "Hey, hey, hey Tony Listen" Obie said stopping dad from leaving.

"I'm trying to turn this thing around but you gotta give me something, something to pitch them Let me have the engineers analyse that" Obie said 'I don't think so' I thought.

"You know draw up some specs" Obie said "No, No, absolutely not" dad said "It'll give me a bone to throw the boys in New York!" Obie said "This one stays with me that's it Obie Forget it" dad said "All right well this stays with me then" Obie said taking the pizza box off dad.

"Go on, here, you can have a piece Take two" Obie said "Thank you" dad said "You mind if I come down there and see what you guys are doing" Obie said.

"Good night, Obie" dad said walking down the stairs Obie came over to me then dad came back and said "Sal can you come down here."

"Coming" I said getting up leaving the ice on the couch then I took the pizza box off Obie and run down to the basement were we continued making the hands of the suit.
