Chapter 213: I Choose Both
Peter was walking home from school. He had successfully made the web-shooters and now daily went out to protect the people.
"So, wanna come to my place and complete that Star destroyer model?" Ned asked.
"Nah, I'll just go home. I need to study for the qui..." He stopped midway.
His face looking into an electronics showroom with T.V.s on the window.
"HOLY SMOKES!, he's the president." He exclaimed.
"What? What are you saying?" Ned asked.
Peter came out of the stupor, "Ah... Nothing. Let's go."
~How did I not recognize him earlier?~ he asked himself. He quickly went home after that. But a surprise was waiting for him there.
"Aunt May, I'm home." He said and went into his room.
He didn't look anywhere and just went to his bed and put down the bag."So, even kids like you are jumping around and acting hero, ha?" A voice came.
Peter was in full fight mode and shot his web at the voice.
"Oh, easy, kid. Ah, it will be hard to clean now. You made this on your own?" Tony tried to take the web off while observing it closely.
"Mr. Stark? What...." Peter flustered when he recognized the person.
"Peter Parker, straight As in high school. In science quiz club and also our friendly neighborhood Spiderman. I can see why the old man made you my apprentice." Tony said while surfing on his holographic phone.
"Apprentice, me? I did apply for Stark Internship but I haven't received a reply." Peter confusedly mumbled.
Tony suddenly stood up, "Wait, we have an internship program? Anyways, what is this suit? Such low-level stuff."
Tony tried to stretch it and test its strength, but he only got embarrassed as the cloth was too strong. "Who gave this to you? you need upgrades."
"Ah, it was Mr. President, I met him some days ago," Peter replied.
"That explains it. Alright, Peter, why you doing this? I gotta know. What's your MO? What gets you outta that twin bed in the morning?" Tony asked, really interested in knowing why a 16-year-old would go to such lengths to save people.
Peter seemed unsure if he should tell but decided to do it. "Because... because I've been me my whole life, and I've had these powers for 6 months.
"I read books, I build computers . . . and--and yeah. I would love to play football. But I couldn't then so I shouldn't now."
"Sure, because you're different," Tony commented.
"Exactly. But I can't tell anybody that, so I'm not. When you can do the things that I can, but you don't... and then the bad things happen... they happen because of you." Peter said while looking down.
Tony just realized that the boy in front of him may be a superhero but he was still a kid. He himself was middle-aged when he became a superhero. Captain America became a hero during a war. All of them had a reason to become a hero. But Peter, Peter just happened to get these powers and still decided to do good when there was no need to. He could have become an athlete and made millions but no. Peter was a kid with a heart of gold.
Tony got up from the chair and sat next to him on the bed and patted his back. "So you wanna look out for the little guy? You wanna do your part? Make the world a better place, all that, right?"
Peter nodded, "Yeah. Yeah just looking out... for the little guy. That's--that's what it is."
"Alright, here's the thing, Peter. There's something called the Young Avengers Initiative. You are a member of it and I am your mentor on how to be a hero." Tony simply announced.
Peter got really excited, "What?! Can I be an Avenger?"
"Yeah, but the little one for now. If you want straight As from me as well then be a good kid and always follow my instructions. Now, let's go out and get some burgers. After that, we'll get you a new suit" He opened the door and started to leave.
Iron man soon took the spiderman to Avengers tower and explained everything to him. He also gave him a suit with his own A.I.
From then on, Spiderman was officially in business.
...
In the White House, Alexander was meeting with Connor because his Secretary of State had done a really amazing job.
"How the hell did you make Russia agree to Fusion Power Plan?" Alexander asked.
"Well, I didn't go through the direct channel. I first contacted every social service organization in the country and then all the oppositions of the current regime. They put pressure on the government and they had no other way than to agree.
"Just give me another month and I am sure China will agree as well. They will feel like they will be isolated for being the only country still denying the offer," Connor proudly explained. It was really a big deal.
"It seems you deserve a bonus for this work. Did you know, there are stages of power in many enhanced people? It's like evolving to become better. I know your power lets you make clones of yourself. So here, drink this and become better." He handed him a vial.
Connor looked at it for a while, guessing what would the next level of his power would be. He took it and gulped it down. He waited for something to happen but nothing did.
"Haha, it will take some time now. Go home and sleep. This potion will not only make your body stronger but will also benefit your ability. Though I can not guess what it will be so do tell me tomorrow." He said and shooed him away to go home.
Connor was a workaholic and rarely took holidays. He didn't even need to worry about his little sister Jenny now as she went to school with Tina. And if even Iron Man's sister can't be safe there then no one can.
...
Alexander was already packing up slowly to leave this reality in some years. His goals were succeeding smoothly.
Racism was mostly reduced in the U.S. by now. Other parts of the world were also being dealt with as he drank. All the terrorist organizations were seeing hell for the past few days.
The moon mine was going really well. Nearly 15,000 people worked there and kept a good supply of Helium 3.
Alexander had already prepared for the next frontier, Mars. For now, he will be sending a huge space station there and also many Dome habitats. This will at least start everything and scientists will be able to study it.
However, he wasn't just planning on making people live in domes. He was planning on terraforming the planet. For this, he was making a machine.
"Ah, any news about our Christmas gig, Dobby?" Alexander asked him while drinking in the bar.
"Yeah, there have been. The internet is filled with thank you messages from little kids. The craziest thing is, someone morphed your face to be Santa Claus and now a whole generation of children really believes that you are Santa Claus. You don't know but the White House received 3 million thank you letters written with crayons." He revealed.
"Woah, that many? Did you reply?" Alexander inquired.
"Yes, I sent replies to each of them. Ghost helped me a lot though." Dobby stated.
Alexander was quietly drinking when an old man came to him, "Oh, Mr. President, can I get an autograph?"
Alexander looked at who it was, as only important people could enter this bar. And sure enough, it was Old Man Stan Lee.
"Hahaha... Sure, my friend. Take a seat and let's drink together." He invited him.
Stan Lee happily sat beside him. "I'm a big fan"
Alexander signed the poster, "I am flattered. I never thought the embodiment of the universe would be my fan."
"Ah, you got me. I knew you would recognize me. But this really is my real body. I'm just an old man." Stan Lee said and drank.
Alexander was going to speak but he noticed Deadpool coming towards him, "Oh hello, sexy old man. I fought Vanessa to let me have you too. She finally agreed and here I am."
He jumped on Alexander's lap and started caressing his beard with one hand, "Do you want to take me right here or now or should we go to..."
*BOOM*
Dobby shot him with a shotgun, "Go away, Wade. I have already banned you from here. How the hell did you pass the wards."
Deadpool laid on the ground in a sexy pose with his ass showing up, ignoring the gun wounds and his blood.
"What do you think, old man? Doesn't your hotdog want my doughnut?" Deadpool caressed himself.
*Blaargh*
Ragnarok, who was sitting nearby, vomited, "Goddammit, I will shred you to pieces, Wade."
Deadpool slowly turned his ass towards Ragnarok, "I wanted him but I can bring my expectations down a little. Come now, and ravage me..."
He couldn't speak more as Alexander sealed him in a Vibranium box.
"Take it and throw it in the ocean, Ragnarok" Alexander instructed. Ragnarok happily obliged.
Alexander looked at Stan Lee, "Why did you even make him?"
*Sigh*
"We all make mistakes in our lives, my friend. And sometimes those mistakes got out of control." He said.
"So you mean you don't have control over him?"
"I'm afraid, yes. He will only grow stronger with time and someday become omniscient." Stan Lee sighed as he said that.
"Then I guess keeping him sealed is the only option," Alexander mumbled.
Then he got to the point, "So, what do I owe this visit for?"
"My friend, enemies will be coming soon. I wanted to notify you. Enemies that can destroy everything. Enemies that even I can't control." Stan Lee sternly informed.
Alexander got serious, "I can probably guess who it is. Do you have any way we can solve this problem?"
He shook his head, "Fighting them is the only way. The Universe will have to join hands if we want to survive."
*Sigh* "Sure enough, in marvel, trouble always finds you."
...
[Extra]
Ragnarok truthfully went and threw Deadpool into Mariana Trench.
"Ah shoot, how do I get out now? Hey, anyone out there?" Deadpool called out.
For a very long time, no one came and he thought he was really done for this time. Venessa would get angry for not bringing the groceries, he thought.
"My child, why do you act so naive?" A sweet voice came to his ears.
"Oh, and who are you Disney princess?" He asked.
"I am Gaia, the Mother Earth." She introduced herself.
Deadpool's eyes turned heart-shaped and he started mumbling, "Oh my, I love you mother earth. Thank you for giving me your gases to inhale. I-I..."
*Boom*
"Go away, Gaia, he's mine." Another voice came. But this was a bit cruel sounding.
Deadpool didn't know what was happening as he was still inside the Vibranium cage.
"Go away, death. This one is mine." Gaia shouted.
"Then let's ask him." Death said and took Deadpool out. But Deadpool died instantly from so much water pressure. Death brought him to the surface and he came back to life.
"Tell us, undying one. Who do you want, me, or this plant freak?" Death asked while trying to entice him by showing her legs.
"Dear Wade, Tell me you love mother earth the most." Gaia sweetly said.
Deadpool looked at both of them multiple times.
~Oooh she got nice legs. Oh, and she got nice assets and... Oh, no, no... What are you doing Wade? There can only be Venessa and Old man. Maybe Mother Earth too. Oh... VENESSA WILL KILL ME FOR THIS~
"I CHOOSE... BOTH"
