Bab 110: Chapter 109
A few weeks later….
"Peter, check if the prototype's parts have been properly fitted or not for the last time." Mr. Stark said as he did the final preparations for the prototype's initial examination.
"The systems are green. Everything seems alright, Mr. Stark." I answered after thoroughly checking the prototype.
"Excellent! I am activating it." Mr. Stark said as he activated the prototype which was actually just a large disc-shaped machine.
Vroom!
With a small sound, the small propellers on the bottom side of the disc activated and the disc started to float.
"Great! Let's see how well it can move." Mr. Stark said before using the prototype's remote to move the disk around.
The disc was able to move in all directions easily although it had difficulty doing complex maneuvers because of its shape.
"We did it, Peter!" Mr. Stark said with a smile as he saw the prototype working perfectly.
In his excitement, he moved his hand towards me for a hand clap. Hesitantly, I also moved my hand towards him for the clap.
Clap!
"We finally managed to crack down the hoverboard's functions and how it floats." Mr. Stark said excitedly since we had managed to copy one of the main tech of the Chitauri.
It had been a few weeks since the alien invasion and the situation could now be said to have calmed down.
The Avengers received a lot of fame as was expected since we had saved Earth from a freaking alien invasion. The media tried to find as much as they could about us but found next to nothing except what was already known about Mr. Stark.
Everyone in the Avengers had separated for now but we had no idea when the SHIELD would call us again.
Mr. Stark and I were currently at the weapon factory where the Chitauri tech had been stored and were researching on how Chitauri technology actually worked.
Given my enhanced intelligence and the fact that he liked me enough to work with me, Mr. Stark had decided to make me his assistant for this research.
After weeks of research, we had finally managed to crack the hoverboard technology and even tested the prototype now to confirm it.
"So, are you going to use this technology to enhance your Iron Man suit, Mr. Stark?" I asked curiously.
"Of course, Peter. With this technology, the Iron Man suit will fly much more smoother compared to before." Mr. Stark confirmed.
"By the way, Peter. Have you ever thought of having a suit similar to mine for yourself?" Mr. Stark suddenly asked, surprising me.
We had become quite close in the last few weeks so it was not that far of a stretch for Mr. Stark to offer me a suit. However, it was quite surprising since he had never offered to make a suit for anyone before.
"Although I would like to have a suit very much, it would be next to impossible for me to use one, Mr. Stark. My red lightning is just too strong. No suit will ever be able to withstand my lightning. Even the current enchanted suit I use has a lot of lightning resistant enchantments just so I can use it." I explained sadly why I could not use an armoured suit like him.
"Well, it can't be helped." Mr. Stark said with a shrug.
"Let's see how the other two are doing."
Both of us moved to another part of the factory where we could see Dr. Banner and Mr. Hank working on a dismantled Chitauri gun.
"How is it going, Dr. Banner? Any progress?" Mr. Stark questioned as we entered the lab.
"We have more or less figured out how these guns work but we are having problems with the energy source. It is clearly not something available on Earth. We will have to see if we can create an alternative." Dr. Banner reported.
"Then, we will have to depend on you, Dr. Banner. After all, you are the best we have in the field of energy." Mr. Stark said, complementing Dr. Banner.
"I have to thank you for your kind words, Tony. Honestly, it feels great to able to work again as a scientist. After all, this is a field where Hulk will never be able to match Bruce Banner." Dr. Banner said with a smile.
"By the way, are you getting along with our new blue furred friend here?" Mr. Stark asked, referring to Mr. Hank.
"Hank has been a good friend to me all this time. He honestly has some great ideas, especially when it comes to machine parts." Dr. Banner answered.
"Well, you obviously get ideas after repairing robots thrashed by mutant powers everyday. At least, I can work on something new here." Mr. Hank said upon hearing Dr. Banner's words.
"I think all of us could use a small break. Let's see what is going on in the outside world." Saying these words, Mr. Stark activated the television in the lab and opened the news.
"An alien invasion was something everyone had thought happened only in science fiction stories. Yet, it happened in reality at New York.
The Chitauri came through a portal, ready to conquer the Earth. However, Avengers, a special team consisting of people from every stream possible, from mutants and gods to even a billionaire like Tony Stark came forward to defend Earth.
And we can't forget about the Black Dragon which appeared at the moment when the massive Chitauri army had finally arrived so as to conquer our planet and destroyed every single one of them in a matter of minutes.
But after all this time, we have not even about to find even a single one of them. The gods of Asgard have returned to their home, the mutants are nowhere to be found and no one knows where Captain America and the SHIELD agents are. Even the genius billionaire Tony Stark has not been seen anywhere for weeks. The only time he was seen was when he announced the welfare schemes along with the mayor."
"After this invasion, even the media who cursed me everyday is now praising me endlessly." Mr. Stark commented, amused by how the media had changed their views so suddenly.
"Meanwhile, Albion who was previously known as Red Lightning is the one everyone wants to know about the most. Due to the fact that both the Black Dragon and Albion use red lightning, it is confirmed that there is a clear connection between them.
There are wild theories regarding them but the most prevalent theory is that Albion is an envoy of the Black Dragon and he was the one who called it here."
"Director Fury really managed to spread the rumour that I was just an envoy of the dragon. At least, this will prevent me from being hounded by literally everyone when I am out on a mission the next time." I said, releasing a sigh of relief upon seeing the news.
"There has also been a massive change in the stream of thought regarding mutants. Due to their role in saving the city, they are now being seen more as protectors rather than monsters."
"Charles was truly happy when he saw that mutants are finally being accepted. His dream of several years is finally being completed before his eyes." Mr. Hank said with a smile.
"I believe we have had enough of a break. It's time for us to go research on the Leviathan." Dr. Banner said, reminding us of our research.
Since the Leviathan was one large ship, all of us worked together on its research so as to find its secrets as soon as possible.
"Sure!" Mr. Stark said as he shut down the television.
I have to compliment SHIELD for this since they actually managed to stealthily transfer that giant ship Leviathan here even though it had to be broken into several parts if it was not already.
Ring! Ring!
I suddenly received a call on my phone. When I looked, I could see that it was from Professor Xavier.
"Hello, Professor. Why did you call?" I asked Professor Xavier.
"There is a mission for which your help is required. I will tell you the details once you arrive at the X-Mansion." Professor Xavier told me the details and cut the call.
"I need to go. There is a mission." I told everyone.
"Sure! We will handle it here, Peter." You can go without any worry." Mr. Stark said.
"If you say so. See ya all later!"
