"Everybody wants a happy ending, right? But it doesn't always roll that way. Maybe this time. I'm hoping if you play this back.....it's in celebration. I hope families are reunited. I hope we get it back, in somewhat like a normal version of the planet has been restored, if there ever was such a thing.

God, what a world. Universe now. If you told me 10 years ago that we weren't alone, let alone you know to this extent.... I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised. But come on, you know. The epic force of darkness and light that come into play. And for better or worse, that's the reality Morgan's going to find a way to grow up in. So I found a private area to record a little greeting in case of an untimely death on my part. Not that death at any time is ever timely.

This time travel thing that we are going to pull off tomorrow.... it's got me scratching my head about the survivability of all this. But then again that's the whole hero gig. Part of the journey is the end. What am I tripping for? Everything is going to work out exactly the way it's supposed to.

I love you 3000."

Tony's hologram then faded. Leaving Morgan utterly devastated.

"So that's it Daddy? You're not coming home?", Morgan said before her legs gave way.

"But mommy said you'll come back. She said that no matter what she will bring you back. Uncle Happy said that no matter what happens you always come back. Then why not this time? I was hoping this would be a happy message not a sad one."

"Morgan...."

The junior stark turns around to see her father standing right behind her. The left side of his face partially burnt. His armor somewhat broken. He quickly kneels down and wraps his hands around his daughter.

After a long silence Tony finally says, "I promise you.... I will never ever leave you. Ever."

The small brunette starts to cry in her fathers shoulder.

"I thought you weren't going to come back. I thought you were gone. The message, Mommy going after you, I thought-"

"Hey, hey, I am here aren't I? I am fine and healthy. And plus I am pretty sure that your mother wouldn't let me have a peaceful afterlife. Forget that I wouldn't have a peaceful afterlife seeing you cry because of me. I am so lucky to have you and I love you 3000."

Morgan finally return the hug when she feels someone hug her from the back and the side. She looks up from Tony's shoulder and sees her mother hugging her from behind and from the side it was none other than Peter Parker.

"I am so happy that you are safe Mom and Dad. And....Daddy you look like shit."

"Tony!!! Did you seriously teach Morgan a bad word? Seriou-"

"I swear she just overheard me say it one day. I didn't teach it to her!!!"

Not entirely happy with the way this one turned out but I am trying to improve. Anyway I have been waiting for a really long time to write something and I have. Yayyyyyy!!!
