Mutant Child

14

May didn't see Peter the rest of the night. May as never seen Peter this upset. Peter though is a five-year-old kid meaning he doesn't understand things as adults do. He doesn't understand why May did what she did. She wanted to protect her powerful nephew. Once she got the call from Mrs.Donnelley, she jumped on the next flight to Queens.

Peter doesn't understand that if she didn't come any earlier, he may have already been hurt by Tony. May placed the plate of breakfast treats on the table. "PETER, BREAKFAST IS READY" May called. May was now waiting to Here the putter patter of lil' feet.

But all she got was silence.

"PETER?" May yelled. Maybe he had overslept. May sighed as she took off her oven gloves and walked down the hallway. "Peter? It's time to wake up" she said in a normal tone. No response. "Knock, Knock" May said while actually knocking on the door. Still no response. "Okay, I'm coming in..." May whispered as she opened the door.

When she opened the door she saw Peter still asleep. She sighed with a smile as she walked over to the boy. "Peter..." she whispered shaking him. "Peter?" May shakes the boy again to get no response. She then touched the young form only to feel softness like a pillow. "What the-" May ripped the covers off only to get the scare of a lifetime.

She only saw pillows. "Peter?" She whispered not knowing what to do. "PETER!?" May yelled analyzing the room. One thing caught May's eye. That was an open window. "No, no, NO" May yelled as she ran out of the bedroom and into the living room. "No..." she whispered trying to keep her sanity.

Something else caught her eye though. Something shiny on the arm of the couch. She looked and moved towards said object to see it was, in fact, Tony's.

"Maybe..." she whispered before picking the phone up.

Pepper was writing information on the clipboard when her phone started to ring. She looked at callers id to see it was 'Tony Stark'. She gave a smile to herself before pushing the accept button. "Hello?" She said returning back to her work.

"Hello, Mrs...Potts?"A female voice answered through the other line.

"Who's this? Did you still Tony's phone?" Pepper Asked getting angry.

"What? No, no...look Mrs.Potts...your friend, Tony Stark, left his phone at my place..." the female tried to explain.

"Oh...your the person Tony babysitter for," Pepper said.

"Y-Yeah...but...my nephew, the boy he babysitter... has run away and I'm pretty sure he is looking for Tony..." the girl tried to explain as calmly as she could.

"Oh...OH! I'll tell Tony right away and we will help you find him...what was his name?" Pepper Asked.

"Peter Parker..."

Tony punched the punching bag a few times before stopping to get a drink. "Great work out, boss," said limo driver Happy.

"Yeah, you too..." Tony said trying to bring a smile to his face, but somehow the smile didn't wanna come out.

After a while, Pepper came in with her clipboard in hand. "Hello there," Tony said. Pepper smiled before the two passionately kissed on the lips but seconds after separated. "...Did you leave your phone anywhere?" Pepper Asked.

Tony moved back a little before checking his pockets to feel his phone was nowhere in his pockets. "Oh..." Tony whispered angrily to himself.

"It's at the Parker residence..."

"Oh..." Tony said getting angrier. "How do you know that?"

"A 'May Parker' called me with your cell...I have a question..."

"WHATEVER SHE SAID ABOUT ME ISN'T TR-"

"Do you know a 'Peter Parker'?"
