Multiverse of Marvel

Chapter 39: The return

After the glass panes slid out the person in the mask came out of his seat and jumped to the other edge of the aircraft. and sat down on the edge while the aircraft hovered by itself in front of him and the person just looked at Tony from head to toe.

"Who are you?" Tony said. He had some guesses in his mind but he could hardly believe his own guess.

"I thought John informed you about me." the main in the mask said.

"You are Batman? You really are Batman?" Tony blurted out.

"Yes, I am Bruce Wayne" the man replied. "I have been watching you for over a month Tony. I have to say I am impressed" he continued.

"What? You have been spying on me? Then why didn't you save Yinsen before? He was innocent. I thought you are a superhero" Tony said with some anger.

"Relax Tony, Yinsen is alive. He is being treated now by someone. Come in . I need to send you to the military base. They are going haywire looking for you." Bruce said.

"What? Yinsen is alive? How is that possible? I watched him die. Are you sure you are speaking the truth?" Tony said with some agitation.

"Relax. I am not the only one here to monitor your situation. Even though I haven't met the other guy I knew he was there to protect you. He took away Yinsen. I am sure he will be sent to you soon when he will be fit." Bruce said.

"Fine! I will trust you for now. Wait let me remove my suit." Tony said. He chose to trust Bruce because he knew if Bruce really wanted to kill him he could have used his aircraft to blow him up. By what he could see, he was sure the aircraft had powerful weapons system that could kill him even when he was in suit.

After removing the suit he climbed up to the hovering aircraft and proceeded to sit on the co-pilot position. Bruce too sat on his position.

"Don't you want to destroy your suit?" Bruce commented.

"It doesn't matter. This suit is useless without my reactor." Tony said nonchalantly with a hint of pride it. Bruce already knew the whole story from John's memories so he didn't comment anything more. Tony was too naive for this world. He needed a wake up call and Obadiah would give him that.

After tying the seat belts they flew away. Tony was curiously looking at the inside of the plane and he could see that the technology was of high level. Tony had sparkles in his eyes as he thought of many things. He had many questions but he knew that it wasn't the right moment to ask.

He needed to get back home and find out who was selling his weapons to terrorists. And more importantly he needed a cheeseburger. Living there for 3 months was like a hell for him. Soon the Batwing arrived near the base in a stealthy manner.

"Go on Tony. Go home. John will soon come to speak with you. We have a lots to discuss." Bruce said as Tony climbed down the plane. After that Bruce flew away without saying a farewell.

"This guy has more attitude than me." Tony murmured.

As Tony approached the base he could see the guard tower outside. He waived at the guards. At first the guards were pointing their guns at him but as his face became clear he immediately called his superiors. After a few minutes Rhodes came running with worry on his face

"How was the fun-vee? Next time you ride with me. Okay" Rhodes said as he hugged Tony.

The next day a military airplane landed in LA at Stark Industries's private airport. Tony came out of the plane only to see Pepper waiting for him.

"Your eyes are red. Few tears for your long-lost boss?" Tony said to Pepper.

"Tears of joy. I hate job hunting." She replied.

"Yeah vacation's over." Tony replied.

"Hogan take us to an hospital." Pepper said to Happy.

"No. There are two things to do. First I want a cheeseburger. And second I want to hold a press conference" Tony interjected.

"A press conference? why?" Pepper asked with

"Hogan drive. Cheeseburger first" Tony didn't answer her.

When they arrived at the press conference, Obadiah was waiting for him. Tony hugged him while eating the burger. Then he saw John standing and watching him a little far away.

Tony, Obadiah and Pepper walked towards John with a smile. "Thanks for the heads up. You saved my life." Tony said.

"I am just a messenger Mr. Stark. I am glad that you are safe." John said.

Obadiah who listened to the conversation was shocked as he didn't know what happened in Afghanistan. From the conversation it seemed like John helped saving Tony. After thinking this he clutched his hands in anger but didn't show any impressions on his face.
