Tony Stark x Reader

Part 2

"Oh no, I can't do that, we're just about to start phase two"

"Phase two? Of what? What are you doing to me?" I struggle, anger lacing every word.

"Don't you worry now, just cooperate and you'll be fine" he says, leaving the room and taking one of his people with him. The ones that were left in the room with me began pulling out medical equipment and for the next 24 hours I had to experience excruciating pain, being injected with this strange fluid, my body glowing red and burning me from the inside. It felt as though I was dying, but everything they did, all the torture I endured, it kept me alive in a never ending state of overwhelming heat.

Finally, after dealing with the injections and Killian's irritating need to tell me about all his plans, for whatever reason I could not fathom, the torture was over, Killian came in once again and all he could do was smile "hi"

"You think he's gonna help you? He won't" I state, shaking my head, trying to keep myself awake as I felt incredibly exhausted.

"Having you here is not just to motivate Tony Stark. It's, umm... well, it's actually more embarrassing than that" he laughs awkwardly, but something about it makes me uneasy "you're here as my, umm..."

"Trophy?" I question, and all he does is nod. Just through the doorway appears none other than the Iron Patriot, and for a moment I was relieved.

Rhodey was finally coming to save me.

The suit opened up, but who I saw was not Rhodes, it was the president "welcome aboard, mr president"

Everyone left the room, leaving me with only the scientists and the soldiers. Nothing happened, but still there was nothing I could do, I tried to use my powers to move a scalpel across the room but every time I tried my body was overwhelmed by heat and it pained me to do so, so I had to stop.

All I could do was wait...

Finally, after waiting for so long, I was allowed out of my straps to stand on my own two feet in what feels like ages but everything began crumbling around me, just like the mansion, but instead of rubble it was metal poles falling everywhere. Before I knew it I was trapped beneath them, peering out through the gaps to see some kind of battle erupting and from what I could tell, they were all Tony's suits. I couldn't help but find it amusing that he'd made so many, I thought he only had maybe 15, but this was crazy. I tried to laugh, but the pain coursing through my body stopped me and I could only groan in pain.

All of a sudden there was a loud thud in front of me, but I couldn't see what caused it; then the metal poles trapping my small form moved revealing none other than Tony himself.

"Stop!" I gasped as the metal began to shift around me, crushing my body more "put it down, please"

"See what happens when you hang out with my old girlfriends?" He jokes.

I couldn't help but laugh, although it hurt I just couldn't help it, I'd thought Tony was dead and I was just so happy to see him alive and still the same guy I knew "you're such a jerk"

"Yep, we'll talk about it when we get home" he smiles, reaching out a hand towards me. The metal began creaking and I was scared, I didn't want to die. Desperately, I tried to reach out and grab Tony's hand but every movement hurt and made the metal creak even louder, every shift of my body caused excruciating pain and I couldn't help but sob "come on, Katie, a little more"

Straining every muscle in my body, I reach out, trying as hard as I could not to make the metal collapse any more, and finally our hands joined causing me to let out a sigh of relief. Just as Tony was about to pull me out, a glowing hand reached up from the ground and grabbed Tony's arc reactor. He fell back in pain as the floor opened up, revealing Killian, looking spiteful as ever "is this guy bothering you?" He asks me rhetorically before standing on top of Tony, who's laying on the floor in pain "don't get up". Killian begins slowly burning Tony's suit and taunting him "ooo, is it hot in there?" I could hear the metal sizzling and I wanted to help "stuck? Feel a little stuck? Like a little turtle, cooing in his little turtle suit. She's watching... I think you should close your eyes. Close your eyes, you don't wanna see this"
