Marvel: Breezing Through History as an Eternal

“The truth is… I am Iron man.”

The sound of camera flashes suddenly overwhelmed the sound of the TV, the headline quickly changed to ‘Tony Stark is Iron man.’ As the news kept rolling, the reporter threw in many questions incoherently. 

“Damn, Uncle Tony is Iron man?” Helios stated in surprise.

“Language.” Thena warned.

“Sorry mom…”

Pluto chuckled at the scene, and then his phone suddenly rang, he saw who it was, it was Tony Stark.

“What do you want?” questioned Pluto as he brought a bag to the front of the house, they were preparing to leave for vacation.

“What? Didn’t you see the news? I’m famous now.” said Tony sarcastically, there’s a lot of background noise around him.

“Oh really? Didn’t notice before.” Pluto scoffed. “What do you want Anthony? I'm preparing to leave for vacation right now.”

“Oh you’re leaving? Well don’t, because I’m coming there right now.” he said, and Pluto could hear the sound of a jet above him.

It was in the middle of the night, and Pluto was in the last flight of the day.

Suddenly, a man with an iron suit dropped to the ground, doing a superhero landing. Pluto, Helios, and Thena saw it enveloped as the two adults of the family shook their heads in amusement.

“Definitely Howards’ son…” Thena murmured.

The metal suit quickly straightens, and the visor opens, revealing Tony’s face. “What do you think?”

“I like Power armour better.” said Helios suddenly, making the others turn to him.

“Oh hey buddy, what did you just say?” Tony raised his brow.

“I said I like Power armour better. Your suit’s skinny.”

“Well, you can’t make one, so your opinion is not valid,” continued Tony dismissively.

Helios looked at his parents, who were looking at him in amusement. But then, his eyes turned golden, and a golden construct child replica of the Iron man suit suddenly enveloped Helios’s body, and Tony’s eyes widened at the sight. The flight mode turned on, and Helios floated a couple inches from the ground.

“Quite easy to make.” said Helios, his voice sounds a bit robotic because of the suit.

“Helios, what did I tell you about using it?” Thena sternly said, making Helios flinch.

Helios quickly ground himself, and the construct turned into golden dust. “Sorry mom…”

Pluto sighed. “Okay, you just want to show off? We have a plane to catch Anthony, it’s almost time for boarding.”

“Wait, are we just going to ignore what the kid did?” Tony questioned in confusion. “What just happened?”

“Alright, I’m going to wipe your memory.”

“Wait, wait, wait… you can do that? Please don’t.” Tony stepped back a little bit. “And what did you just say about planes? You’re using commercial planes instead of a private jet?”

“Friendlier to the environment.” Pluto shrugged. “Are you finished?”

Tony sighed. “Tell you what. I’ll take you to… wherever you want to go… where do you want to go?”

“The Amazons.”

“Right, the amazons… wait what?” Tony questioned. “You want to go on a winter vacation to a jungle? Taking your kid with you no less…”

“Got a problem with that?”

“You know what?  I don’t even know why you want to go there…” Tony raised his metal arms. “Fine, I’ll take you there, you can refund the commercial planes… if you still can…”

“Anthony, I don’t want to enter your jet that is filled with strippers and booze.” Pluto massaged his head, starting to get fed up. “Just tell me what you want.”

Tony sighed. “Look, I just… want to thank you…”

“For what?”

“The Obi’s situation.” said Tony vaguely. “You could’ve locked me out of the company, but you didn’t. You trusted me, and you probably lost a lot of money because of it.”

“Yeah, well, not really.” Pluto shrugged as he walked to his car, putting the bag to it. “Because of Obadiah’s idiotic moves, I managed to acquire his shares of the company, along with some more from others.”

“What?” Tony was surprised. “So how many shares have you got now?”

“50%” Pluto closed the trunk of the car. “Why?”

“You almost control my company…” Tony murmured.

Pluto told Thena and Helios to enter the car, and he leaned against it. He sighed at Tony, massaging his head. “Look, Anthony, you’re an adult, right?”

“I’m almost 40, so we’re way past that…”

“Mentally, are you an adult?” Pluto rephrased that sentence.

“I’d like to think so.” Tony shrugged.

“Then can I trust you with your own life?”

“Of course you can, I have metal armour with me.”

Pluto hummed. “Then you can control your own company.”

“What?”

“I’m giving you my shares,” said Pluto. “I don’t need money anyway, I’m well past that. The only thing that’s keeping me from selling it is because you seem to not care about the company at all, a foreign force could take over if you’re not careful. Case and point, Obadiah.”

“Uncle, that’s a lot of money…”

“Like I said, it’s more of the control you have rather than money.” continued Pluto. “You’re always bright in terms of engineering and science Anthony, but you have to pay attention to your surroundings more. I don’t want another Obadiah coming into the company, you think you could do that?”

“Of course…” Tony answered. “I mean, it’s me, you can trust me.”

Pluto shook his head in amusement as he walked up to him, hugging his metal armour.

“You should find a way to cure your poisoning.” said Pluto, tapping his arc reactor. “Maybe your father has a way.”

“How’d you–”

“Alright, don’t do anything stupid while I’m away.” Pluto patted Tony’s shoulder. “Or else I have to send the Egyptian girl to you again.”

“Oh, please do that.”

“She likes playing with chains.”

“Oh… then please don’t.”
