We arrived back at what used to be mine and Tonys house which now belongs to pepper and tony it's weird being back here the last time I was here I was packing getting ready to leave tony to try help my best friend who had been a ice cube for 70 years adjust to life now. We walk in to the house I drop my bags down near the small hall way table. I turn to look for tony who was just behind me to find no one there, great guess he is already off.
I walk down the steps leading to Tonys work area I would have liked to have said it had not changed but in truth It was not the same whatever projects he had been working on lay on the side tables. While tony paces the length of the room I sigh using the code to open the glass door "tony"I sigh we agreed to work together "yeah and here we go" he says tapping at the holograms before him "I've compiled a Mandarin database for you, sir,
Drawn from S.H.I.E.L.D., F.B.I.,
and C.I.A. intercepts. Initiating virtual crime scene reconstruction" tony pulls a hologram and spreads it across the room the virtual lay out of the Chinese theatre in which had just been attacked I sigh "ok then" I nod removing my jacket and scarf I step up into the round stage like area walking through holograms taking a look around "Okay, what do we got here?His name is an ancient Chinese war mantle Meaning "advisor to the King" South American insurgency tactics"I analyse the profiles JARVIS has complied from all the sources looking over at tony as he steps up next to me "Talks like a Bapist preacher.There's lots of pagentry going on here... lots of theatre."he says looking over what I just studied we both take place around hologram I small step around the layout of the Chinese theatre using my hand to swipe closer to specific areas. Tony uses his hand to close the files only leaving the layout open "The heat from the blast was in excess of 3000 degrees Celsius. Any subjects within 12.5 yards were vaporized instantly"JARVIS shows us a run through using holograms "No bomb parts found in a 3-mile radius of the Chinese theatre"I ask JARVIS "no ms hart" JARVIS answers being formal with me once again but I don't correct him "Talk to me, Happy." Tony sighs looking at the hologram of happy on the floor lines appear pointing toward where he is both looking at pointing me and tony both follow the lines to dog tags "When is a bomb not a bomb?"tony asks himself tony picks up a holographic slate holding the dog tags on pushing it out so we all have a better view "Any military victims?"I ask "Not according to public records, ms hart" JARVIS informs. I look over at tony who's face is frowning in thought "Bring up the thermogenic signatures again, factor in 3000 degrees"tony says while climbing onto the higher platform looking down I walk over climbing up next to him "The oracle cloud has completed analysis. Accessing satellites and plotting the last 12 months of thermogenic occurrences now."JARVIS complies "take away everywhere there's been a mandarin attack"tony says as we both watch the hologram reform tony and I both scan through until something catches Tonys eye "are you sure that's not one of his"tony asks looking at the block that says rose hill Tennessee with heat signatures of 3000 making it abnormally high and similar "It predates any known Mandarin attack. The incident was the use of a bomb to assist a suicide. The heat signature is remarkably similar." JARVIS says. "That's two military guys..."I mutter looking up at tony "ever been to Tennessee JARVIS" tony asks "creating a flight plan to Tennessee"JARVIS announces as tony closes all holograms just then the door bell goes we both share a frown "Are we still at "ding-dong"?
We're supposed to be on total security lockdown.Come on, I threatened a terrorist. Who is that?"tony whines standing me following after him as I mutter "there's only so much JARVIS Can do when you give your home address to the worlds press"he rolls his eyes at me as we walk towards the door upstairs.Tony gets his iron man suite ready for anything to happen I just follow him scoffing once we get into view of the door a slim brown hair girl stands in the middle of the hall "you can stop right there"I order she looks up "You're not the Mandarin, are you? Are you?" Tony slides his iron man helmet up so you can see his face "- You don't remember.
Why I am not surprised? I get it Gracie you don't remember cause you have over 90 years of memories but tony wow"she scoffs and I roll my eyes "Don't take it personally, I don't remember what I had for breakfast." Tony sasses "Gluten-free waffles, sir."JARVIS reminds him "That's right."Tonys nods "Okay, look, I need to be alone with you,
someplace not here... it's urgent." She looks around almost scared "oh no see normally no brains over here would go for that but he has done a little to much talking this time so no he's not going anywhere with you"I snap stepping forward slightly "what she said"tony points to me I roll my eyes "plus I'm in a committed relationship"he smiles I scoff as we turn round leading her inside "with her.."tony trails off as pepper Throws 2 bags down in to the floor from the landing I didn't even know she was home "tony is someone there"she calls walking down the step past a ugly rabbit thing "pepper"I smile "Gracie"she smiles I run over to her hugging her close as she hugs back "it's been a while"I nod pulling back "but let's talk later now I'm not the one who is here that shouldn't be"I say slowly awkwardly scratching the back of my neck "ok"I smile turning looking towards tony and the brown hair girl who is still can't remember there muttering about something of course she's a ex hook up well that's awkward "with happy in the hospital it's not surprising Gracie's here but who's this"pepper points at the girl stepping closer to tony "this is Maya Hansen. Old botanist pal that I used to know, barely."he says oh that's where I remember her from back in 1999 right got it I think to myself "I was not expecting friends and old girlfriends"pepper says faking a smile stepping close to tony as I lean back on the pillar in the room crossing my arms "no not really it was one night"maya spoke I scoff gaining glances from her and tony I roll my eyes ignoring them is now really the time for this "you saved yourself a world of pain"pepper says to maya before turning to tony beginning to bicker about leaving town after his stupid threat against the mandarin maya agrees I scoff "Tony, this is how normal people behave."pepper argues "Tonys never been normal"I add in he glares at me "Gracie what do you think"pepper looks at me "look what's done is don't this could either end good for us or bad cause we could all die"I shrug "are you serious"pepper says frowning in shock at my laid back attitude to be honest running won't help anything "is this normal"maya speaks pointing to the rabbit thing "yes this is normal it's a rabbit chill out about it"tony yells while bickering with pepper i get annoyed and pace towards the TV where I see our house on the screen me and maya share a look "tony"I say seriously "guys"maya tries catch the attention of the bickering couple "do we need to worry about that"she points to the screen as tony and pepper look a missile coming straight for us we all look at the window to see a bomb coming right for us. Before I can react it hits blowing us all back.
