"Of course I know how dangerous is it's powers. Didn't you watch the anime I made?" John asked her.
"You think I have a lots of free time to watch all your works?" the ancient one retorted.
"You really are a monster. You figured out my tattoos with just an hour of reading. No wonder you are sorcerer supreme." John murmured under his breath.
"You want me to keep the books?" she asked speculatively.
"Yes this is my help for now. Of course don't share the core information. That will be dangerous. Such knowledge shouldn't be known to anyone." John said.
"I know. I will make sure that only sorcerer supreme will have access to it's core knowledge. Thank you John. This knowledge will help generations of mages. This is a great help" the ancient one said with all sincerity.
"It's fine. If there are people who comes to the universe which has magical powers in future I will notify." he said with a smile. Then they discussed on the new knowledge, even though she didn't have in depth knowledge she could figure out the general directio of the science involved. After an hour of discussion John felt sleepy so he excused himself and left Kamar Taj. She even asked him if he wanted to learn magic.
John didn't have so much free time for now. If he has in the future he might try to learn.
The next morning John left for LA to meet Tony. After he reached his home he went directly to the laboratory. He noticed that the laboratory has become bigger than last time and it had two separate sections. One section looked extravagant and the other looked a little gloomy. John immediately knew that this two have separate laboratories now to work on their projects.
"Hey John. You are back. Wait what are those? Tattoos? You like tattoos? You never seem like that kind of person." Tony said as he came to greet John after finishing his work.
John could see many small robot like creatures working on the table.
"You seem like you have are using the full force of the cube to your advantage." John said and from the corner he saw Bruce coming out from his laboratory with a robotic dog following him.
"Yeah thanks to you our work has become easier and faster." Bruce replied to that.
"By the way you didn't watch my new series?" John asked.
"Of course we did. Your anime is very colorful. Specially loved 'Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood'. I loved the whole plot. I cried so many times after watching some scenes. Specially when Colonel Hughes died and her daughter crying on his funeral." Tony said with sadness. "It must be very saddening to see such worlds in dreams but can't do anything to stop them" Tony lamented.
"It's fine. I am used to it by now. Since you have seen the series don't you know what my tattoos represent?"
They both were surprised when they heard it. They both came close to see his tattoos and then Bruce suddenly realized something and said
"You used Scar'a alchemy and alkahestry? And that tattoo in your hand? Flame alchemy? From Roy Mustang?" Bruce asked with doubts. John clapped instantly
"Yes Bruce it is exactly as you said." John said.
John made those tattoos after gaining knowledge of them from the world of Fullmetal alchemist brotherhood. It was a world where science was based on transmutation circle and the theory of equivalent exchange. John's right hand could perform decomposition which means if he wanted, whatever he touched, be it organic or inorganic, it would decompose. And the left arm could reconstruct. Any material could be reshaped to any form of the corresponding material. He could make a spear out of bricks if he wanted. Of course it would take practice. And the last tattoo on his hand was flame alchemy. With just a spark he could make fire and attack enemies with fire. Same as Roy Mustang, the flame alchemist in the anime. Since fire uses oxygen for burning and spark giving the initiation the theory of equivalent exchange stood valid.
"My god now you have the knowledge of their world. Wow. Now you can finally use powers. Can you teach me alkahestry? I would love to know more about it and see if it could cure my poisoning." Tony asked with enthusiasm.
"I am here for two reasons. One for the senate hearing tomorrow, I am sure Tony got it and secondly to share the knowledge of alchemy and alkehestry." John said.
Tony was instantly excited as that would mean another means to get stronger. As for the senate hearing, he didn't really care. He just needed to hack on their servers and bring out their dirty work. Both of them are powerful and influential people. The senate can never force them to do anything.

"Really? That's awesome. I loved the iron blood alchemist. Its a pity that he got killed so easily. Wait since you have Scar's tattoos we should have a fight later when I research on iron alchemy. This time I will defeat you and take back the glory of iron alchemy. " Tony said with fighting spirit.
"Sure. But first detoxify yourself. We both need to practice on it." John said after giving the USB drive. Tony took the drive and put it on the table and said.
"Jarvis make a private folder labelled as Alchemy and give highest security to it. Nobody except me, Bruce and John will have access to it."
"No. The knowledge of Alchemy can never be accessed or saved in a computer which is connected by the Internet. Even Jarvis can't get access to it." John stopped Tony as future Ultron might be a problem if he learns alchemy.
"Huh are you sure about that?" Tony said little puzzled.
"Yes. Never in any computer with internet ." John insisted.
"Fine."
Bruce won't accompany for the hearing as that might lead to speculations of him being Batman. Tony had his first entrance for his Expo that night so he got busy. So he didn't get much time to study alkahestry but they both went through the knowledge. Both were excited and worked up. While John gave some tips to it. He was sure they both would get more out of this knowledge instead of him as they both were geniuses.
At the Stark Expo, Tony landed from an airplane using his Iron Man suit like in the movie and gave a speech for leaving a legacy.
".. tonight we have two guests for you. Ladies and Gentlemen. He has the same influence as me, well maybe a little less as he is not a superhero but a great man nonetheless. Please welcome, the teenager who creates miracles everyday, Mr. John Jameson and followed by my father Howard Stark" Tony ended his speech by that.
John came out from behind the stand and said
"Thank you Mr. Stark for the compliment. Well I might not be a superhero but I can definitely be of help to the society. Welcome you all to the Stark Expo. I too will be investing money in this and hope you all can join your minds together and help innovate new ideas and inventions." John said as he got a loud applause. John like Tony was very famous as he had his hands on so many things that his existence was now very crucial for the functioning of a society.
"Let's not hold you all for too much time and welcome Mr. Howard Stark" John continued.
After the end of Expo they went back to Tony's place and slept as they had a flight the next day to Washington DC.
Tony and John accompanied by Pepper reached the building of senate hearing. They both took their seats.
"Mr. Stark, please pay attention" said the senator who took charge in the hearing.
Tony who was busy talking with Pepper turned his head and said "Yes dear". This made everyone laugh out loud.
"Do you or do you not possess a specialized weapon?" the senator said.
"I do not" Tony replied without hesitation.
"Then what is the Iron Man weapon?" the senator asked.
"My device doesn't fit that description" Tony replied again.
"Then how will you describe it?" the senator asked
"It's a uh.. umm.. it's a high tech prosthesis." Tony replied and everybody started laughing at this answer
"It is a weapon Mr. Stark. It should be handed to the people of the United States." the senator said with a higher voice.
"You can forget it. I am Iron Man. Me and the suit are one. Turning it over will be equal to servitude or prostitute depending on what state I am in" Tony replied and everybody again laughed at it.
"I am not an expert in weapons but we have somebody who is. I would like to call Justin Hammer, our current primary weapons contractor"
"Justin, haha, an expert? what a joke" Tony said out loud
"I am no expert Tony as compared to you of course" Justin replied. The Justin went on to give a speech of how dangerous the world was and that America needed technology like Tony's who was adamant on using it as a shield.
The senate called Colonel Rhodes this time and asked him to say about his doubts which he submitted before to the military. Rhodes mentioned that it would be unfair as there was a huge report he made about it. Then Rhodes showed how different countries were trying to make weapons such as Iron Man's suit.
Tony brought out his mobile and said in a low voice "Cinch, hack into them and show them the results. Work your magic"
The small mobile immediately started working on it's own and soon the images on the screen changed to the scenes of actual results where countries failed to make Iron Man suit and even lost men due to it. It even showed Justin Hammer's research on the suit where he failed to make a successful test and even the guy in the suit seemed injured.
"The countries might be 5 6 years behind in replicating my suit. But Hammer Industries is at least 10 15 years behind. You should thank me. I am your nuclear deterrent. It's working, we are safe. America is safe. You want my property you cant' have it. I have successfully privatized world peace" Tony said with confidence as everybody gave a standing ovation.
