Tony's Secret Spider

Chapter 2 Who is Peter?

Peter Pov

Peter knew something was going on as soon as he arrived at the tower. More cars were parked there than the usual. Also when he walked in the front doors JARVIS did not greet him. So if course, he thought that his dad (Tony) had disconnected the AI to work on it. Well to make sure that he did not reprogram it into calling Tony 'The smaller boss Stark'. Peter knew it drove him nuts when he did that, so of course, he did it all the time.

Peter stepped into the elevator listening to the gears turning with his advanced hearing. He always did this when in an elevator. He loves to hear all the separate parts moving in their own way to connect all together to make the giant metal box to move upward and downward.

Peter was thinking of a way to make the elevator move as it does in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (the one with Johnny Depp) when the doors opened up. He walked onto the carpet, dropping his backpack off in the kitchen walking into the living room area. Then he saw them. All of the Avengers plus Pepper looking at him. Peter looked up at the screen and saw Fury looking down at him with his one eye.

"Tony, who is this?" The question brought back Peter's attention back to the people sitting on the couch. The one who asked the question was a small man with graying hair and glasses. Suddenly Peter realized that was Bruce Banner, the awesome science dude.

"Oh. Well...uh that is Peter." Tony was at a loss for words.

"And why is Peter hear?" asked FREAKING Captain America.

Tony looked at Peter, Pepper, and Fury (Fury knows that Peter is Tony's adopted son but not spiderman) for help. Fury sensing Tony's distress came to the rescue.

"Peter is allowed to be here. We will explain who he his as soon after we make a plan to get to Spiderman."

That got Peter's attention. How to get to Spiderman! He guessed it was his old Parker luck coming back to him.

Pepper saw the worry on Peter's face and knew what was going through his head were not happy and exciting thoughts. Pepper also knew that they could not tell the rest of the team at the moment that Spiderman was in the same room as them.

"So what is the plan?" asked Wanda.

"Well since we know that crimes around the city catch Spiderman's attention, I think we need to cause a big crime to get Spiderman's attention. When we get it we can move in and attack. We can have Wilson, Rhodes, and Stark in the air. Then we can have Clint on the lookout on walls so he can't escape that way. We need Cap, Romanoff, and Wanda on the ground. Thor can be where he is needed. Banner you only come in if things get messy, also you can be on the coms helping everyone out. We will talk later on when this is all going to take place, but for now, let us discuss the matter that is on everyone's mind right now. I do believe you are all thinking 'who the hell is this Peter and why is he here?' I think you are all thinking that right now. Now I think is a perfect time Stark. "

Everyone turned to look at Tony in an expected way. It reminded Tony of kids getting ready for story time.

Tony knew the sooner he explained the situation the sooner the rest of the team will come to terms with it. He looked at Pepper at grabbed her hand and squeezed in a way of comfort. He also saw that Peter was still standing in the doorway in an awkward way. He motioned for Peter to sit next to him.

Tony cleared his throat and looked at everyone in the eye before he began his story.

"Before I tell you I just want to say that I don't want to be interrupted by anyone. You can ask questions when I am done explaining. So as you know about sixteen or seventeen years ago, well maybe not Cap but I started getting bad. I was getting drunk every day, get terrible hangovers in the morning. I spent the most time as a could in the lab. I just sat down there alone for hours on end. I hardly went to bed, I just slept in the lab, hardly eating anything. I started to be horrible to my few real friends. Soon it was becoming a very unhealthy way of living and I knew I needed to get my life back together soon, otherwise, I was heading to the point of no return. So then one day I came out of the lab and met Pepper. Pepper was different than all the rest of my co-workers, she was not fawning all over me. She just went around doing her work. One day I asked her out on a date and she said yes. Soon we started going out as much as we could. Then Afghanistan happened, Pepper helped me recover. We got married a week later. We, of course, kept it from the public. Then I had the idea of getting a kid. We, of course, could not have one the natural way because of all the women I had slept with over the years, which I no longer do. So I asked Pepper if We could adopt a kid and she gave me the go ahead. So I started to look around. Then I found the perfect kid. He was only one year old. His parents did not want him and none of his family members were willing to take him in so they sent him to an orphanage. I put in a request for adoption and a few weeks later I got the go ahead and I was able to adopt a son. It made me so happy to have a family that could actually stick together and not fall apart. Pepper and I were so happy when we brought him home. You should have seen his face. He was so happy. So that is the story of Peter here. Pepper and I adopted him. He his out son. "

The rest of the Avengers did not know what to say.
