Chapter 43: The expected conspiracy
After speaking to Coulson, Bruce came back to Tony's place. He expected that Tony was at home as he noticed him going out. But there was only Alfred sitting down at the lab.
"Where's Tony?" Bruce asked
"Master Stark just came and wore the suit and flew away without saying anything" Alfred said
"Jarvis, where's Tony?" Bruce asked.
"Mr. Stark is currently flying over the the Atlantic ocean at a speed of 120 miles per hour heading towards Europe." Jarvis replied.
"I should have gone with him." Bruce said as he felt there must be a reason why he was flying towards Europe and it must be serious.
John normally doesn't share all the memories with the characters being bought out. He only gave glimpses of future and enemies they would have to face. John didn't want to babysit the heroes of actual world and the characters brought from other world because if he helped everywhere then the superheroes won't grow in character.
Soon according the original timeline, Tony arrived at Gulmira and destroyed the weapons while killing bunch of terrorists. While returning back he was attacked by the US air force but he managed to shake them off while saving the pilot whose plane exploded. Rhodes helped him covering up but asked for better personal explanation later.
Tony returned only to see Bruce eyeing him with dangerous eyes. Tony felt a chill in his bones by looking at him like that.
"Did you think I saved your life so that you can throw it away in that damned place again?" Bruce said in a very cold voice.
"Well I came back safe and sound.. Isn't it?" Tony said. Before Bruce could reprimand Tony they heard a voice saying
"What is that? Are those bullet marks?" Pepper who just came to the lab saw Tony who was taking off the suit with the help of Jarvis while Bruce and Alfred looking at him.
"This is not what it looks like Pepper. This won't be sold to anyone. I want to correct my legacy.". Tony said with seriousness.
"It's all fine if you make weapons and other things. But I won't be a part of this if you put your life on line" Pepper said with immense sadness. Tony was shocked and at the end convinced her that what he was doing was right for the first time.
"I want you to hack into the main server of the company and find out if there are any back deals going on. I am locked out of the company so I can't go in. Bruce can accompany you." Tony added at the end.
Bruce was still angry about his carelessness to go so far without any backup but he knew this was important now so he didn't refuse this.
"I will do this last job for you then I will resign." Pepper said and she left.
"Tony you should tell her your feelings. The world is more dangerous than you think. Don't keep any regrets." after saying that Bruce left to follow Pepper to the company.
Soon Pepper and Bruce came to the main office of Obadiah and Pepper started the process with the help of USB device given my Tony while Bruce stayed at the door to be on lookout. Soon the truth came out as she watched the video showing that Obadiah was responsible for the kidnapping of Tony and his new project with suits named Sector 16.
While the information was being copied Bruce said that Obadiah was coming and she needed to hide. So she hid the hard drive with a newspaper.
"Who is he? Your new bodyguard?" Obadiah said after entering the office
"Yeah. Tony said I needed an assistant so I hired him. What's up" Pepper said after calming herself. Then they initiated small talks while making sure that Obadiah doesn't realize that all the files were being copied. Finally after the process was completed she left in a hurry. Obadiah knew that something was wrong but he didn't say anything but when he saw that all the files were copied he knew that his secret was out.
"Obadiah is responsible for the kidnapping of Tony and there is a new project called sector 13 where he is making a suit. He might be upto something bad Bruce.. I hope you can help him."
"Sure. I will call Coulson to accompany you to this sector 13. He can protect you in case of emergency. I will go back to Tony's place to inform him. You can call Rhodes too. Having a support from military can help" Bruce said
Pepper informed Rhodes and Bruce called Coulson for backup. After half an hour Coulson came and Bruce left for Tony's place. When Bruce came to Tony's place he saw Alfred lying unconscious in the living room . Bruce was stunned and immediately woke him up.
"What happened? Where is Tony?" Bruce asked.
"Master Bruce, Tony is in danger. You need to go to save him. Tony was in the laboratory before" Alfred replied somehow as he was still not fully conscious.
