Alice in wonderland

7. The man in the orange suit.

They've passed 6 months since Tony "came out". During those months, while he was a superhero Superstar. SHIELD told me everything about my past. more things that I could ever known. What Hydra did to me, they used an experimental serum with me, and some particules from a thing called the Tesseract. A super powerful object from space, that any ordinary human couldn't even touch, that's what killed my birth mother, because it was to powerful for her to handle.
I still haven't told anyone about that night, I didn't want to be a part of an experiment again.
I found out that I can get inside peoples memories just by touching them .

My phone starts ringing, I check who is it, Tony. I haven't told Tony I was with SHIELD , I told him I was going to Europe for my last semester in college, which it wasn't a total lie, my college let me study my last year abroad , I was top of my class, In a few weeks I'll be graduating. So I told Tony I was going to Spain to finish my studies and increase my other languages skills . I managed to hack a device that shows my location live, because I know Tony was spying on me, I was even able to send pics in real live, like they where done at that exact moment and place.

- Hey bro! You just caught me waking up from my nap, what's up?
- Que tal señorita? (How are you lady)- answers Tony.
- muy bien y tu? (Very good and you)
- I wanted to talk about something important.. -
- OMG HAVE YOU PROPOSED TO PEPPER??? - I asked excited.
- What? No. It has something to do with Pepper, though. -
- Have you guys, finally declared your true feelings for each other? Is she preggy?- I was getting more and more exciting. I was only trying to tease Tony, I knew what he was going to tell me, he isn't the only one spying.
- No, nothing like that... I decided to make Pepper CEO Of the company, I know logically it would be you, but I know you aren't really into the company, but hey if you want it, we can arrange some sort of plan - He kept rambling on about it. I decide to cut him off
- Tony! Tony! It's okay! Pepper will make a great CEO better than I could ever make in a million years, and well, even better than you.... - I explain
- You know, you though I would be offended, but you are right. ...so you're not mad? - he asked.
- No, Tony, I'm not mad, thanks for telling me yourself though . But she'll need an assistant right?
- Yes, you want to offer yourself for the job? - he asked with irony on his voice.
- you are kidding right? I support Pepper 100% but you know how I don't like taking orders from anyone.
- Yeah, I do know that, from first hand.
- Right.
- okay so we'll see you in monaco next week?- wondered
- Yes,. I'll be there , watching a lot of testosterone in motors, and you.- I replied.
- Great, see you next week then.

I arrived at Monaco, Tony was participating in the Grand Prix, so of course I had to see that (being totally ironic).
- Hello Pepper! - I greet her
- Ali!!! How are you?! It's been a while! How is your last semester? - She started asking
- yeah it has, great, just finished, graduating in a few weeks.
- Great, so you'll be coming home then?
- Yes, I just have to finish a couple of things, and I'll be there. Congratulations on your promotion by the way, you truly deserve it. - I say honestly.
- thank you so much Ali. - she said calmy, with a soft smile.

We were watching the race, it wasn't difficult to spot tony's car. Suddenly the screen shows a man entering the race, he's wearing an orange suit, wich is covering A lot of devices on his upper chest, he has the same thing Tony has on his chest and what it seems, whips of electricity. He lashes a Ferrari that's coming to him, making the kart wallow in the air, everyone gasps, I start to feel the electricity running through my veins. suddenly Happy appears, with a red case, we go immediately to the car, he starts the car and drives inside the race.
I can hear people screaming and running,we are approaching Tony and the mysterious man with the whips.
- Oh my god - gasps Pepper.
Happy then, hits the man with the car against the wall. tony approaches to Happy.
- were you heading for me or him? - asks with an angry voice
- I was trying to scare him - Happy defends
- cause I can't tell!! - Tony argues.
I'm just in my spot, in the meantime Pepper is having a panic attack
- ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND???? GET IN THE CAR RIGHT NOW!!! - Demands a nervous pepper. I 've never seen Pepper like this at all.
- I WAS I ATTACKED!! WE NEED BETTER SECURITY!! - Tony continues to argues.
I can hear the mysterious man, recovering consciousness.
- Guys- I whispered
- GET IN THE CAR- Happy demands.
- YOU'RE THE CEO - Tony continues arguing - better security measures. God, it's embarrassing! . First vacation in 2 years - he murmures with desperation.
- GUYS - I raise my voice

A leash breaks the car door in two. Pepper and Happy start screaming. Happy starts the car, he drives backwards and then he hits him again.
- I got him! - Happy claims
- Hit him again, hit him again! - I encourage Happy, it looks like we are on bumper cars.
Happy continues hitting him again and again, pepper tries to give the case to Tony, but with the whole moving of the car it was impossible.
- Stop banging the car! - cries out pepper.The airbag hits Happy in the face, then a leash hits the car. pepper continues to scream, I make a force field protecting the three of us. Pepper finally throws the case at Tony, and he starts to suit up. I move the force field getting out of the away from both men.

They start fighting, the orange man keeps leashing Tony, making him difficult to defend himself. I don't know what to do , if I help Tony everyone will see my powers, the whole world, and I will become an experiment again. Tony starts to fight back, he finally puts the man in the ground and pulls out the thing of his chest.
The crowd starts cheering, the police takes the man, he is laughing though. I try to enter his mind but all I can see are this russian encryptions.

Something big is coming....
