章 153: Ch.38
The particulars of each element i was releasing had all the molecular bonds revealed and while Vibranium was already known in certain circles, it had never been published on before.
It wasn't more than a week before Tony was back at my door. We'd agreed on unveiling the black box arch technology at the Stark expo next year but the elements had caught him off guard. He'd been completely surprised by my boldness and a bit unhappy with it.
He entered my house while I was working on a more efficient cancer treatment and asked. "What were you thinking?"
I hadn't even looked his way as I sighed. "About what? I'm constantly thinking Tony, you'll have to be specific."
He grunted. "These new elements! When were you going to tell me? And why did you release the new one? Wait, more importantly why is your name first on the element?"
I chuckled and turned to him now. "Are mad that I didn't tell you about them or that I haven't given you any of them? Or is it really the name thing?"
He snorted. "Can't it be all of the above?"
I nodded. "It can but I reserved the right to name it because I wasn't about to call it Tonyium or some crap name like that. Besides, it wasn't our names I used it for, it was our fathers and StarkDark leaves a bad impression."
He chuckled. "Okay, what about the other elements though?"
I shrugged. "They're real. I have samples and even a decent amount if you want to build your next suit out of one or all of them. Well, except for Gravitonium, that's too rare even for me to get ahold of and way to dangerous to be fiddling with. One screw up and you're looking at a blackhole that won't close on earth."
He grimaced before speaking fast. "Alright, I'll take the others. Have it shipped to my house ASAP. Good? Good!"
I chuckled. "Damn you're greedy. Don't think it'll be easy to forge these metals Tony. You'll have to invent some new high tech equipment to handle the kinds of heat required to smelt them down."
I pointed to the door. "They're in crates in the garage, you want them you get them yourself. Just don't expect me to give you more if someone steals them. Samples will be put on display at the new Stark expo as well. Oh and I need another slot for a project I'm working on in secret."
He was already at the door before he turned about face. "Secret you say? What kind of secret project?"
I smiled. "Same as ever. That's for me to know and you to find out. Anyways, I'm gonna need the first slot after your the big kick off. It's important as it can save lives and I want to get it out as quick as possible. Oh and can I borrow your robot idea for prosthetic arms and legs. Veterans need them and I can have them only workable for those it's keyed to by blood. I can even make a self destruct for the technology like the black box to keep it safe and secret."
He shook his head. "No thanks but now that you mention it, it would be a good PR grab and work wonders with repairing my rep with the army."
I sighed. "You know you can always make newer and better vests and shields. You don't have to make weapons for them. There's always a middle ground and so long as you keep an eye on the shipments with Jarvis you'll not have to worry about the other side getting them."
He stilled Medford nodding. "You're right. I guess I have been a bit naïve."
I sighed. "That's not what I said at all."
He shrugged. "Too late. I'll see you next time!"
He was in the garage before I could reply so I went back to my work. I finished up the new treatment for cancer and did another fifty more cures and and treatment revisions before getting bored and moving on to nanite code. I coded them all to be tamper proof and used samples of hundreds of millions of DNA sequences all across the globe and physiology scans as well to set the programming for the base human structures and all the treatments and cures I knew of into their code as well.
I was my ultimate gift to mankind and one I'm sure to win the Nobel Peace prize for. It was a one shot dose of nanites that would heal the human body and repair any damage to it except regrowing limbs and stopping aging. I'd had to be careful with that last bit.
It was tamper proof and self destructing seconds after it left the human body. They repaired even brain damage as well as deformities from corrupted DNA. They truly were perfect in every way as they were even hack and power proof as I'd made them from a Uru and Vibranium mixture.
Once I finished the coding on them three months later, I began working on the sea and air cleaners and finishing the cheap desalination filters. It took nearly the rest of the year to finish all of that and I'd begun working on an earthquake and sea quake inhibitor to prevent natural disasters and collapsing buildings.
It was nearly time for the Expo when I completed a concrete ever growing foam that would fill in sinkholes in an hour's time and stop once it was full. I contacted Tony three days before the expo was to begin telling him I had seven projects completed not including the black box project he was announcing.
Pepper took my call until I had Shadow force it's way in and boot Jarvis to the side to make Tony take my call. He asked. "How did you do that? That's not possible!"
I chuckled. "You'll find there's no such thing as impossible. Now, I've seven projects completed and I need that first slot. My old man is going to announce them. He can't stay long as his health is in rapid decline but he's insisting on doing this for his last hurrah."
He sighed. "I'll get Pepper in it right away. Anything else?"
I nodded. "I've finished integrating all the new elements into another synthetic element. I'm calling it Gradium. It's as light as helium but twice as durable as Vibranium, Uru, Adamantium and Adamantine put together. As far as all my tests are concerned it's damned near indestructible."
He dropped the wrench he was holding. "I need it."
I snorted. "Screw you Tony. You took almost all the Gravitonium I had for the expo display. Do you know how long it took me to synthesize that much? Three years!"
He fast talked. "Let's not get hung up on such small issues. The point is I needed it and now I need this Gradium. So, how fast can you send me some? I'm thinking of building a suit out of it."
I snorted. "Ha ha, nice try. I barely have enough for my own uses. If you want some synthesize your own. I'll send you the information on it. Oh and you're using the Gravitonium I have left for the display because I don't have the time to make more or gods forbid go find some."
He shrugged. "Gotta go, you're breaking up."
I sighed and hung up as he was clearly to busy looking over the data burst I sent him. I warned shadow to watch Hammer industries and make sure to nail their asses publicly if they help Ivan get out of prison after he attacks Tony.
I'd already heard of Staines death in prison. The metal bars of his cell had crushed him into a metal-human taco mash. It was clearly Eric's work after he'd gotten his kids away from Hydra. There was a lot of news from over there and damned if he hadn't made the Sokovia news when he destroyed their bunker hideout, killing almost everyone inside except his kids.
He'd contacted me through Charles and I'd warned him I wouldn't help them release their powers if they had plans on Tony Stark. That must've been his response but I was still waiting on him to ask again.
Three days passed in a blink while I was having the bots churn out results. I'd grown bored of remaking technology I already knew worked and now I was working on building a jump drive for a starship. This reality has jump points in space and hyperdrives as well as FTL hadn't been invented.
Even less so was the fact that stardrives or wormhole drives hadn't been invented either. The science was solid, but the technology simply hadn't been discovered therefore I was trying to recreate the technology they used here to see if I could use it to improve upon the other technologies I knew of.
I went as myself to the expo and had a bit go as my ailing father who looked like me only aged to the late eighties. His wrinkly and withered face as well as haunched form sat with me on the expo platform while the dancers went and did their thing with Tony jumping out of a plane in his suit.
When the music died and he did his introduction on how it was about legacies and what we leave behind. When that finished there was a short film of his father welcoming everyone to the Stark expo.
Finally Tony told the crowd. "As a special guest and personal friend of my father's, help me welcome Mr.Damon Dark. He was in fact the investor that made all this possible when my father was looking to start the company and is personally responsible for all the medical advancements Stark industries has made over the years!"
My 'father' stood and walked proudly to the podium. The crowd cheered and he shook Tony's hand. Funnily enough Tony hadn't even tried to act like he didn't wish to shake his hand. I'd almost be offended if it weren't so comical in it's own way.
The elder Dark thanked him before giving a speech on how Howard would be proud that Tony was upholding his legacy as he'd always said his greatest creation was Tony himself. That got Tony's attention before my 'father' began a new speech. "Now, I'm not here to reminisce on the past. As this is the last expo I'll see, I believe my own legacy has built a noble company of his own. My son, Creed Dark has seven advancements that should quite literally still the world in awe."
He tapped the hologram screen saying. "The first of which is an easy and cheap way to end the thirst of the world. As he's already tackled world hunger, it seems thirst Is next. He's made a easy to use and fast acting water desalinator that will turn any salt water no matter how dirty into clean drinkable freshwater."
The device was shown on the back screen and he told them. "It will be sold to all first world countries and given to all third world countries for free. The water is purer than any you'll find in a plastic bottle and that brings me to the second presentation."
He clicked a file and it opened up. "This is the sea quake inhibitor. With thirty of these in ever ocean around the world, anchored in place, they prevent all forms of sea quakes and by effect completely stop all tidal waves threatening any coast."
The scientists amongst the crowd were shocked and you could actually see them by the looks on their faces. He continued. "And for all things there are opposites and as such the third invention shown here tonight, the earth shield, or earthquake inhibitor. Place it along a fault line and it will prevent all natural earthquakes for up to fifty years before it needs to be replaced."
I smiled at their shocked faces while Tony asked me quietly. "I'd this real?"
I nodded. "More than that, there's three more inventions and the best in my opinion is last."
My father bot continued. "Now where there is progress there is setbacks such as natural and unnatural pollutions. Our world has suffered enough by our hands and as such my son has officially become a true humanitarian with these next two inventions."
He opened two files at once. "Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the air and sea cleaners, Poseidon and Zeus. They will, once put in atmosphere and the ocean or any lake or river, clean all pollutants including degrading plastics and toxins from chemical dumps. There is nothing they can't clean waste wise. Or at least nothing that we've found. As such Frosthaven will be donating all of these manufactured and biodegradable cleaners to the world at large and all humanitarian relief efforts. This world will in fact be saved in my lifetime I'm happy to say."
The cheers from that shook the stadium as the crowd went wild. Tony looked at me. "The best for last you say? What's next, bringing Jesus from the dead?"
I snorted. "Hardly."
My father not continued when the crowd quieted. "Now I know the world has its own natural disasters beyond waves and quakes. That's why the next invention is meant to cover a lot of ground, literally. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the foam stone. This foam is engineered to fill in even the largest of sinkholes and fissure cracks without making either worse and what's more it not only does it in mere minutes, but it'll go to the very bottom while the top evens off at a smooth layer for roads and building on. It has a thousand year guarantee that if you build anything atop it, there's no chance of it collapsing because of the concrete it's made into. Used wisely I've been told it can even be used to manufacture islands under the right circumstances."
That had Stark turning to me fully and asking. "Are you literally trying to build a better world?"
I chuckled. "Just wait, this last one is my favorite and one you may take an acute interest in."
My father bot coughed as blood came out on his pocket square he'd used to cover his mouth with. He continued after sipping some water and grimacing. "I apologize for the suspense. Age isn't something that can be cured, try as we might, but this brings me to the last invention and the end of my presentation."
He opened a file and various images of the nanites and what they were for popped up across the big screen. "As of now there are many cures and treatments out there for various diseases. Well I'm here to tell you the crowning achievement of Frosthaven industries has come to fruition. It's called nanotechnology and as far as I understand it, these tiny machines can be taken by shot or pull."
He showed them the test videos of various volunteer patients with various illnesses taking them before continuing. "So long as the disease, illness or injury is known and these are taken in time, they can repair any and all damage up to full health. Now-"
He raised a hand stopping the yelling crowd. "Now now. With all good things there are limits. These nanites cannot heal old age as it's a natural state of the body. They also cannot heal what isn't there so any loss of limb cannot be regrown but barring those two exceptions and it not being done as of yet unknown disease or poison, they can heal and fix it all including faulty DNA strands causing deformations and as of now, all types of known cancers!"
The audience went wild for a bit as I leaned over to Tony now. "That's not it either. Listen to the ending segment."
My father bot, as if on cue, held up his hand. "Now I know many of you would be uncomfortable with having tiny robots in you all the time. So they're a once off. They repair the damage and in cases of shrapnel they break it down and take it out with them with the bodily waste in twenty four hours. For veterans suffering from anything physical that's not a missing limb, Frosthaven under my sons words has agreed to giving all veterans free shots and or pills for life."
Tony went bug eyed and I chuckled and walked up to my 'father'. "Thank you dad, I'll take it over from here. You should rest."
He nodded and hobbled back to his seat as I turned to the audiences. "Now there's something I'll leave you all with. I may be a lot of things, but a fool I am not. For those out there to do good there are an equally spiteful bunch of individuals out there who would attempt to use my technology for nefarious means. That's why I'm here to warn you all now and openly."
"Any and all tampering with Frosthaven technology will result in it's total self destruction regardless of means or intentions. While it's also called self destruct in essence it's just a complete technological hard wipe that fries the devices beyond use or repair. Take it as you will but I'll not allow my technology to be used to cause harm or be stolen by those who wish to use it to make a profit off the less fortunate."
I cleared my throat. "Now for the bright side. All technologies will be donated to all third world countries for free along with ten billion dollars to third world every country as my father's parting gift. That money can be used for clean up efforts, schooling or basic housing. As of right now it doesn't matter so long as those in charge are willing to work for the good of the people and not their own wallets."
I turned to Tony and waved him over. He stood and walked over and I handed him a pill. "As thanks for making my old man's last wishes come true. A free sample before the technology hits the market. It's guaranteed for safety so long as you don't try to take it apart for it's tech. It will heal you of everything so when you take it, remove your glow light."
He accepted it with a smile. "It was my pleasure Creed."
I smiled and said to him and the crowd. "Have a great expo and god bless Iron Man!"
I patted his back before leaving with my father before the reporters had time to bug us. We barely made it to the car before they saw that they were too late. I drove us off telling the bot. "I'll head to my lab, at three A.M. activate the shade program."
It nodded and handed me the bloody tissue I burned. He had my blood but altered to appear as if it were only half my DNA while the rest was a random street hooker's in Hell's Kitchen.
During the night I was notified by the coroner that my father had passed in his sleep and the monitors had notified the medical staff who called the hospital ambulances. He was taken in but pronounced dead on the scene.
For the next week I handled his funeral arrangement and made sure they put an illusion in the ground. The Will was read and he'd led everything to me except the ten billion apiece for the third world countries.
I'd amasses a fortune over the years and it wasn't even a dent in what I could do as money mend very little to me. I could literally make vibranium and sell it by the ounce and make all of lost back in a few months, on the side.
The news covered it and called it the fall of a medical god. To my surprise Tony hadn't taken the pill yet when he'd shown up for the funeral. He told me. "I'm doing some boxing practice with Happy after this. You can come and release some pent up anger if you need it."
I smiled sadly. "I'd like that."
I left the funeral and after the will reading, headed to Tony's place. It was decent enough for a cliff side house. It didn't even have beach front property as it was a sort of mountain like cliff.
When I arrived, I grabbed my own gear that were specially made to prevent me from injuring them. The padding on the gloves was enough to soften the blow if I slipped up a bit, not that I'd allow it but just in case.
Happy and Tony were sparring when I walked in and he spoke up. "Good, just a minute."
He did some dirty boxing to beat Happy into a corner before saying. "Now, you're up next. Try and take it easy on Happy. He's a bit sore."
I sighed an hopped into the ring and Happy tried to ask what I knew about boxing before my left hook sent him to the ropes. Unlike Tony I fought fair but I was simply faster and far more accurate. Happy couldn't touch me as I beat him down in seconds before Pepper showed up.
She and a woman I recognized as Natasha came in with papers he needed to sign. I grunted. "Stark, you're up unless you'd like to give Happy here your cure all medical pill. He's not exactly coherent anymore."
He snickered. "Just a minute Dark. Hey, can you keep him busy while I sign away my company?"
The redhead was already looking to me and just nodded. She got into the ring and I helped Happy our by rolling him to the side. I didn't ask but waited for her to choose her stance and opening. She went to do her signature grappling arm bar twist but found she was being held while she tried her hardest to twist her hips and spin me off balance and into a flipping arm bar.
I held her in place and smiled as I pinched her ass and to her surprise and clear shock, she felt it. She'd actually let go and I let her down. Smiling I gave her a wink before hopping out of the ring as my phone rang. "Sorry Tony, work calls. Perhaps a match next time neither of us is busy?"
He nodded and I gave Natasha one last look before leaving. It took her a few days as the events in Monaco kept her busy but when Ivan was clearly outmatches as his whips did nothing to Tony's new armor, he was beaten down and arrested.
She'd found her way to my place a couple days after. She was good enough I hadn't actually heard her enter the condo. I had sensed her presence instead and asked while I worked on my jump drive prototype. "So you've found me, what now? Sell the information to others? Tell your bosses you found a living god? Or are you here to kill me so you can finally take on a lover?"
She sighed. "Can't I just be happy I found you?"
I chuckled. "I guess though it took Stark ratting me out to help you find me. After all, I left enough clues out there and Stark of all people is what it took to get you here."
She asked. "So what now?"
I turned to her setting down the wrench. "Now?"
I moved and I was before her in an instant. We were inches apart and it might as well have been miles. Yet her very presence screamed to my bottled up desire to take her. I growled lightly. "You tell me. What is it you want?"
She bit her lip while looking into my eyes. I held her gaze evenly and she leaned up, kissing me. I growled as I pulled away. "Don't play spy games with me love. I'm not some asset to be acquired. I'm a force of nature and I won't be controlled or tamed."
She looked into my eyes now as I dropped the glamour. My red piercing eyes bore into her and she lunged, wrapping her legs around my waist while kissing me and pulls at my shirt. I needed no more encouragement as with a thought I incinerated our clothes and my sword suit slid off her and turned into a sheathed sword.
I didn't stop or need pushing as I moved, taking us to bed. At first I was a bit rough for a virgin but she wasn't any slower as she'd matched my pace stroke for stoke. We spent all night in ecstasy as I surprised her both with my gentle and rough behaviors and the bulging that sent her head spinning as I'd filled her with me seed.
We'd gone at it so frequently and fiercely if she hadn't told me she was on the pill and shots, I'd definitely think she was pregnant. By morning we we laying together in a cleaned bed while I slowly took her. It was sensual and rhythmic while what turned her on the most was my grip on her ass that made her feel vulnerable.
She'd admitted as much until we'd ended up in this position where I gave her turn on to her and took it to the next step. She'd moaned and bit my shoulder while I took the last of her virginity. She rode me slowly while looking into my eyes and I gripped her ass.
Her eyes went wide as I found my peak and she tried and failed to slide off of me, only getting more stuck and shuddering as she squirted her own release as I filled her. She collapsed on my chest, fainting from the looks of it while my body finished it's release.
When I slide out of her as I softened, she moaned as a trail of my essence exited her now gaping hole. Her head tilted up a bit and I kissed her while giving her healing chi. Not enough to repair her virginity thank the gods but enough that she wouldn't be to sore to walk now.
I cleaned us both and she fell back to sleep in my arms. When she woke up in my arms hours later, she asked. "So what happens now?"
I smiled. "Whatever it is that you want to happen. We can date as I'm sure you're aware normal people do or skip that part and get married. You can even just call me for a booty call until you're comfortable with a more personal status. It doesn't matter to me because you're mine and I'm yours. Compared to that the world could catch fire and I wouldn't give it a second thought."
She sighed. "Dating sounds fun."
I chuckled. "Indeed it does. Though you'll have to let me know through the suit if and when you have free time so I can make the arrangements. While I'm never to busy for you, you might not feel the same with your work. Don't worry, I'm not saying that's a bad thing. I wish I had something as engaging as assassination and spy work. All I'm doing now I can just do with a thought. I'm only doing it slow because humans ask questions when things just appear."
She sighed. "Maybe you can join me?"
I shook my head. "I'll never work for shield. I may consult and fight a good fight, but I don't do the chain of command thing. I ate the last being that gave me orders and they were a lot more powerful than your boss."
I twirled her hair between my fingers while she said. "There's the avengers initiative. You'd make an excellent candidate I'm sure."
I chuckled. "Speaking of which, I've some powers I want to give to you. The first will make you heavier but also physically stronger and more durable as well as faster. The second will give you psychic powers, the ability to read minds and telepathically speak to others as well as advanced telekinesis. It won't have you knocking over buildings but you could throw an armored car with a thought if you wanted or capture your target so long as they aren't stronger than you physically."
Her eyes went wide and I smiled as I kissed her brow before bestowing her the abilities I described. I'd taken the physical attributes from the gods I'd killed and now they were fueling her new rise to power. I already had Apocalypse's armor fused with my own and it boosted my natural strength while at the same time I'd mimicked the power and given it to her and my swords as well.
I gave her the ability to teleport and kissed her one last time, this time on the mouth and deeply as I gave her copied memories and experiences of all I knew about martial arts and fighting. It was a lot to take in as her mind was already cluttered with all the other things she'd compartmentalized.
I helped her expand her mind scape and build it into a world while showing her how to expand it from there. Unsurprisingly her mind took the shape of the red room at first but now it was shifting, changing into something more.
It no longer resembled that place but a remarkable resemblance to the shield helicarrier mixed with my house in some places. I pulled back from the kiss we'd shared and carried her to the shower where I took great pleasure in washing her off and making her dirty again as I took her up against the tiled wall and even under the steaming water.
Each time I took her she'd convulse into a ear piercing orgasm. As composed as she was in the field, in the bedroom she was loud and throaty like a sexed up lioness on the prowl. I practiced skills I hadn't used since Faith on her as they both seemed to enjoy the tougher stuff more.
When she left that evening I told her to call me or teleport over whenever she pleases for more and that I was always listening if she spoke to me through the suit. She did have to ask though. "Who was the old man you buried on the news?"
I chuckled. "An illusion of an aged version of myself. I had to establish a solid background and not show myself as an immortal god. Oh, and one last thing, the age of gods and monsters is upon us. It will both be fun and dangerous as many powerful beings lurking in the shadows since ancient times will be revealing themselves. Be careful. Contrary to popular belief, gods are not all powerful and I cannot bring back the dead."
She nodded seriously and watched me make breakfast shirtless as she'd been wearing mine at the time. Back to now, watching her leave I shook my head and decided my way was simply too slow so I scrapped the jump drive project for now and focused on the Hulk and Thor as they'd both be making an appearance soon.
