Chapte 3:The next step.
The next morning, I woke up with a plan. I decided to head over to the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology to submit my application. With the knowledge I had now, getting accepted wouldn't be a problem. The campus was impressive, just like in the movie, and the energy of the place felt alive with innovation and creativity. It was the perfect environment for someone like me.
After filling out the necessary paperwork and submitting my application, I left the institute feeling confident. I should hear back soon, and once I got in, I'd be in the middle of all the action, surrounded by some of the brightest minds in the city. As I was leaving the building, I saw a familiar group walking toward me.
It was Tadashi and his friends—Go Go, Honey Lemon, Wasabi, and Fred. Tadashi caught sight of me first, and recognition flashed in his eyes.
"Hey, you're the guy from Aunt Cass's café yesterday, right?" Tadashi called out, smiling as he approached.
I nodded, smiling back. "Yeah, that's me. My name's Max. Nice to meet you, Tadashi."
Tadashi extended a hand, which I shook. "Nice to meet you too, Max. Aunt Cass told me you weren't feeling well yesterday. Glad to see you're up and about."
I laughed softly. "Yeah, thanks for the concern. Your aunt was really nice to let me rest there. I met your younger brother, Hiro, too. He's a good kid."
Tadashi grinned proudly. "Yeah, Hiro's something else. He's way smarter than I was at his age. He'll probably change the world one day."
Go Go, who had been standing a little to the side, glanced at me, and for a second, our eyes met again. She gave me a brief nod, which I returned. It was a small, quiet acknowledgment, but it still felt like something.
Honey Lemon beamed at me, always full of energy. "It's great to meet you, Max! We're just heading in to work on our projects. What brings you to the institute?"
"I just submitted my application," I replied. "I'm hoping to get in soon and start working on a few ideas of my own."
Tadashi raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued. "Really? What kind of projects are you working on?"
I smiled, keeping things vague for now. "Let's just say I'm working on something big—something that could change the way we think about technology."
Tadashi grinned. "Sounds like you'll fit right in here. Good luck with your application, Max. Maybe we'll be seeing more of you around."
"I hope so," I said. "I'm looking forward to it."
With that, we said our goodbyes, and I watched as Tadashi and his friends headed inside the institute, already deep in conversation about their work. Meeting them again felt like a step in the right direction, and I knew that soon enough, I'd be a part of this world in more ways than one.

Building the Arc Reactor
After leaving the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology, I knew what my next move had to be—start building the foundation for my future armor. And to do that, I needed power. The first step? Creating an arc reactor.
I spent the next couple of hours driving around the city, picking up the supplies I'd need. I got some palladium, a miniature electromagnet, titanium for the core housing, and various other materials that were crucial for the construction. Of course, it wasn't easy to find some of these things, but with the resources I had (thanks to my billions), I could get what I needed.
Back at my house, I set up a workspace in the basement. It was spacious, almost like a mini-laboratory. The faint hum of machinery in the background gave the room a futuristic vibe, and I felt like I was on the verge of something incredible. With the blueprints for Stark's original arc reactor in my mind, I began my work.
---
I started by constructing the core housing—the place where all the energy would be focused and stored. The titanium I had bought was perfect for the outer casing, able to withstand high amounts of heat and stress without bending or breaking.
Step 1: The Electromagnet
I carefully set the miniature electromagnet into the center of the titanium ring. This was crucial because it would not only power the device but also prevent metal particles from moving toward the core, should there ever be any. The precision here had to be perfect—one wrong move, and I'd have a useless pile of metal instead of an arc reactor.
Using the tools from my shop, I welded the electromagnet into place, checking every detail to make sure the setup was exactly like I envisioned. The wires I connected had to be sturdy but flexible enough to handle the high electrical output the reactor would generate.
Step 2: The Palladium Core
Next, I moved on to the most crucial part: the palladium core. This would serve as the primary source of energy for the arc reactor, capable of producing a near-infinite amount of power. I placed the small, refined piece of palladium into the central chamber of the reactor, careful not to damage it. Its placement had to be exact for the reactor to function.
Once the palladium was secured, I surrounded it with a series of copper coils that would harness the energy and direct it into the system. These coils needed to be precisely aligned for maximum efficiency. I spent a good amount of time adjusting each one, ensuring there were no gaps or misalignments. The balance was key here—too much energy in one area could cause an overload, while too little would make the reactor fail.
Step 3: Cooling System
Knowing how much heat the reactor would generate, I installed a cooling system around the device. Using tiny liquid cooling pipes, I routed coolant around the reactor's core. The liquid would absorb excess heat and transfer it out, preventing the reactor from overheating and frying itself. This was something Stark had perfected in his design, and it was an essential feature for long-term functionality.
Step 4: Power Conduits
The next step involved wiring the power conduits. I connected the output leads from the reactor's core to a miniature transformer I'd built. This transformer would regulate the flow of power, ensuring that the energy being produced didn't overwhelm the systems I'd later attach to it—like my armor.
Every wire I connected sent a small jolt of excitement through me. This was real. I was really building an arc reactor, something that seemed impossible just a short time ago. But with the knowledge I'd gained from the system, it felt almost natural.
Step 5: Test and Calibration
Once everything was in place, it was time for the moment of truth. I connected the final leads and stepped back, eyeing the arc reactor with a mix of anticipation and nerves. If this worked, it would be my first true creation in this world. If not… well, I didn't want to think about that.
I flipped the switch.
At first, there was a low hum, almost like the reactor was waking up. Then, a soft blue glow began to emit from the center of the device. The palladium core lit up, and energy surged through the copper coils. I watched as the power conduits began to hum, regulating the output.
It worked.
I let out a breath I hadn't realized I was holding. The arc reactor was stable, the energy flowing smoothly without any signs of overload or malfunction. I stared at it, the soft blue light reflecting off the walls of my workspace.
I had done it. I had just built an arc reactor.
I couldn't help but smile. This was only the beginning. With this as my power source, I could start building the suit. But right now, I couldn't stop admiring what I had just created. The possibilities felt endless.
Tomorrow, the real work would begin.
