Tony doesn't talk about the people he lost. The only exception are the stories he tells to Morgan who always needed one before bed. But the same old stories told are beginning to bore Morgan, until she remembered a tale of a hero in red.

Tony can still remember Peter slipping through his fingers, his skin turning to ashes carried away by the wind. He vividly remembered Peter's voice breaking, begging to stay, his fear-stricken eyes engrained in Tony's mind. For a whole year, the dead teenager was the only reason why Tony wakes up everyday with a purpose. He drowns himself in his lab day and night, desperate to find ways to bring him back. A year passed and Tony was nowhere close to a single solution. His determination slowly faded into despair and eventually, Tony finally forces himself to face reality, choosing a quiet life and to start a family with Pepper. Peter was gone and Tony accepted it. Until one day, an unexpected visit made Tony realised that the spark of hope had never truly left.
