Ben 10 In The MCU

24:Donut

Tony is seen sitting inside a doughnut, eating a doughnut. Pans out to see Nick Fury looking up at him.

Nick Fury: Sir! I'm gonna have to ask you to exit the doughnut.

Tony: [Now inside sitting at a table with Fury] I told you I don't wanna join your super-secret boy band.

Fury: No, no, no. See, I remember, you do everything yourself. How's that working out for you?

Tony: It's... It's... It's... I'm sorry. I don't wanna get off on the wrong foot. Do I look at the patch or the eye? Honestly I'm a bit hung over. I'm not sure if you're real of if I'm having...

Fury: I am very real. I'm the realest person you're ever gonna meet.

Tony: Just my luck. Where's the staff here?

Fury: That's not looking so good.

Tony: I've been worse.

Two people walk over. Camera angle is such that you can't see their faces.

SHIELD agent: We've secured the perimeter.

Female SHIELD agent: But I don't think we should hold it for too much longer.

Tony Looks over top of his glasses and Sees Natalie and Ben.

Tony:You're fired.

Ben: That's not up to you.

Natalie Sits down next to Fury.

Ben walks to the chair behind fury and leaps over to sit on the other side of fury.

Fury: Tony, I want you to meet Agent Romanoff. And Agent Tennyson.

Tony: Hi.

Natalie/Agent Romanoff: We're SHIELD shadows.

Benjamin/Agent Tennyson:Once we knew you were ill, we where tasked to you by Director Fury.

Nick nods at his lie.

Tony: I suggest you apologise.

Fury: You've been very busy. You made your girl your CEO, you're giving away all your stuff. You let your friend fly away with your suit. Now, if I didn't know better...

Tony: You don't know better. I didn't give it to him. He took it.

Benjamin/Agent Tennyson:Whoa, whoa, whoa. He took it? You're Iron Man and he just took it?

Natalie and Fury chuckle.

Fury:The little brother walked in there, kicked your ass and took your suit? [Turns to Agent Romanoff] Is that possible?

Agent Romanoff: Well, according to Mr Stark's database security guidelines, there are redundancies to prevent unauthorised usage.

Tony: What do you want from me?

Fury: What do we want from you? What do you want from me? [Agent Romanoff leaves] You have become a problem, a problem I have to deal with. Contrary to your belief, you are not the centre of my universe. I have bigger problems than you in the southwest region to deal with. [Romanoff returns with an injection] Hit him.

She does so.

Tony: Oh, God, are gonna steal my kidney and sell it? [Rash goes down] Could you please not do anything awful for five seconds? What did she just do to me?

Fury: What did we just do for you? That's lithium dioxide. It's gonna take the edge off. We're trying to get you back to work.

Tony: Give me a couple of boxes of that. I'll be right as rain.

Agent Tennyson: It's not a cure, it just abates the symptoms.

Fury: Doesn't look like it's gonna be an easy fix.

Tony: Trust me, I know. I'm good at this stuff. I've been looking for a suitable replacement for palladium. I've tried every combination, every permutation of every known element.

Fury: Well, I'm here to tell you, you haven't tried them all.

Scene change. Tony's house. It's a bit broken. He is sitting with Nick Fury.

Fury: That thing in your chest is based on unfinished technology.

Tony: No, it was finished. It has never been particularly effective until I miniaturised it and put it in my...

Fury: No. Howard said the arc reactor was the stepping stone to something greater. He was about to kick off an energy race that was gonna dwarf the arms race. He was on to something big, something so big that it was gonna make the nuclear reactor look like a triple-A battery.

Tony: Just him, or Anton Vanko in on this too?

Fury: Anton Vanko is the other side of that coin. Anton saw it as a way to get rich. When your father found out, he had him deported. When the Russians found out he couldn't deliver they shipped his ass off to Siberia and he spent the next 20 years in a vodka-fuelled rage. Not quite the environment you want to raise a kid in, the son you had the misfortune of crossing paths with in Monaco.

Tony: You told me I hadn't tried everything. What do you mean I haven't tried everything? What haven't I tried?

Fury: He said that you were the only person with the means and knowledge to finish what he started.

Tony: He said that?

Fury: Are you that guy? Are you? 'Cause if you are, then you can solve the riddle of your heart.

Tony: I don't know where you get your information, but he wasn't my biggest fan.

Fury: What do you remember about your dad?

Tony: He was cold, he was calculating. He never told me he loved me. He never even told me he liked me, so it's a little tough for me to digest when you're telling me he said the whole future was riding on me and he's passing it down. I don't get that. You're talking about a guy who's happiest day was when he shipped me off to boarding school.

Fury: That's not true.

Tony: Well, then, clearly you knew my dad better than I did.

Fury: As a matter of fact, I did. He was one of the founding members of SHIELD.

Tony: What?

Fury: I got a two o'clock

Tony: Wait, wait, wait, wait. What's this?

Fury: Okay, you're good, right?

Tony: No, I'm not good.

Fury: You got this? Right? Right?

Tony: Got what? I don't even know what I'm supposed to get.

Fury: Natasha and Ben will remain floaters at Stark with their cover intact. You remember Agent Coulson, right?

Tony: Yeah.

Fury: And Tony, remember, I got my eye on you.

Fury leaves.

Natalie/Agent Romanoff/Natasha (We'll stick with Natasha from now on): We've disabled all communications.

Ben:No contact with the outside world. Good luck.

They leave.
