Spider-Man Oneshots || Peter Parker

Intruder

Tony ignores the anonymous phone call the first two times it rings.

He's ready to block the number when he gets another call, and something in his gut tells him that he needs to answer it. What he had initially presumed to be a sales call had been much too persistent to consider as innocent.

Tony finally answers in fury, "Who are you and how the hell do you have my number?"

"Anthony Stark, it's about time."

Tony immediately stiffens at the use of his full name, and he wordlessly signals FRIDAY to begin tracking the unknown caller as he heads straight for his Iron Man suit.

"Who are you?" he asks again, this time with more demand.

"That information is not important."

Tony groans in response, "then why-"

"We're taking your child."

Tony's heart drops at the statement, and he feels a combination of fear and rage consume his body. He focuses on the latter emotion as he begins to leave the lake house, not exactly sure where he was headed.

"Stay away from her."

The man only laughs. "Maybe you should keep better track of your belongings, and that's the last thing says before the line is cut off.

Tony thinks about the little information he was given. He knows that the mysterious caller was in the process of taking his little girl, meaning that there was still time to prevent it.

Though he pauses for a second, confused by their motive. It would make more sense for them to kidnap Morgan before contacting Tony; the decision was counter productive on their part. The man on the other end of the line sounded much too calm and collected, like he already knew he had the upper hand.

The last time he had seen Morgan was when he dropped her off for school that morning. Tony prays to whatever god is up there that the man wasn't bluffing when he said that they hadn't kidnapped Morgan yet. If he could stop the intruders from breaking into the elementary school, then he would have nothing to worry about.

Tony wasn't confident with his lead, but he didn't have time to form a better plan. He pushes any doubts he has as he increases the speed of his blasters.

When he finally makes it to the school, he doesn't bother to be careful as he shatters the window. Children scream in both terror and delight when seeing Iron Man in the building, yet the teacher looks shell shocked at the sight before her. Tony pays no mind to the chaos as he makes he way toward the front of the classroom.

"I'm looking for Morgan Stark."

The teacher blinks at him with her mouth agape and Tony huffs out a sigh in annoyance, impatiently waiting for her to pull herself together. Eventually, she finds her bearings, "she should be in room 108."

Tony is running before she finishes the sentence, and a few of the kids attempt to follow before the teacher drags them back to the classroom. He doesn't bother to thank her.

When Tony finally finds the room he barges in unannounced, attempting to catch his breath while simultaneously scanning the new group of children. At last he sees his daughter safe and sound, and Tony feels the world begin to rotate once more.

Morgan was safe.

"Daddy!" She runs up and Tony doesn't hesitate to hold her close to his side. He picks her up and she lets out a squeal in excitement.

"What are you doing here?"

"Yeah, what are you doing here," the teacher interrupts. Tony looks over to see her glaring in his direction, and he offers a charming smile that he often gives to press.
