shoot to thrill, play to kill
too many women, too many pills, yeahac/dc ⸻ shoot to thrill
Stark Expo, Flushing New York
May 24th, 2011Bella stood backstage at the Stark Expo's opening night presentation. The stage in front of her currently had a collection of scantily clad women doing a rather risqué dance. Each had circles of light on their hands and chests, meant to be the Iron Man repulsors and Arc Reactor. Shoot to Thrill by AC/DC blasted from the speakers as the large crowd chanted "Tony! Tony! Tony!" over and over again.
Despite Bella's distain for rock, she found herself nodding her head to the beat and mouthing the chorus "shoot to thrill, play to kill. Too many women, too many pills, yeah." She looked to her right and saw that even the ever stoic and serious Happy Hogan was tapping his foot to the song. She smirked but didn't comment on it.
From above the loud explosion of fireworks filled the already noisy arena and the steady hum of the Iron Man suit could be heard as her father made his decent from the jet above. Pepper had wisely decided to fly in the jet with him, leaving poor Bella and Happy to suffer through his egotistical opening speech.
With a loud BANG the Iron Man landed on the stage as more fireworks went off and the huge screen behind the stage showed a picture of the American flag. Tony Stark stood and put his arms out as robotic limbs came out of the floor and quickly removed his suit. It had become a much faster process since the suit was first developed a little less than a year before.
"It's good to be back. You missed me?" Her father smirked as the crowd went wild; whooping and chanting his name.
"Blow something up!" A man in the crowd yelled, causing Bella to roll her eyes.
"I missed you too. Blow something up? I already did that." At this remark the screams of the crowd somehow got even louder. "I'm not saying that the world is enjoying its longest period of uninterrupted peace in years because of me."
Bella ran a hand over her face a sighed, "lord give me strength." she muttered under her breath.
"I'm not saying that from the ashes of captivity, never has a greater phoenix metaphor been personified in human history. I'm not saying that Uncle Sam can kick back on a lawn chair, sipping on an iced tea because I haven't come across anyone who's man enough to go toe-to-toe with me on my best day."
Bella nudged Happy's side, "Do you think he wrote this out before hand?"
He looked down at her a smirked, "what do you think?"
