Multiverse of Marvel

Chapter 56: The whiplash (2)

In the mean time following the events in Monaco, Justin Hammer managed to free Ivan from prison. And cut a deal with him for making suits while Justin would provide the necessary equipment and arrangements. Ivan said that he could help him making drones instead of suits. As that would be more safe.

Hammer accepted this proposal instantly and finally decided on showing his creation in the Stark Expo with that help of Ivan. But Ivan had other plans, he had a thirst for revenge against Tony. So he installed a remote inside the drone suit to control them. The only difference in this world was that there were larger number of drones than in than in the original world. Tony's powers in Monaco scared him a bit and he wanted to have a proper protection this time.

The next day in the Stark Expo Hammer presented the drone suits. Even Rhodes joined in the presentation. At the moment of presentation Tony got a call from Ivan saying that he would take revenge for all the bad things that happened to him due to Tony's family.

"Bruce we need to go. Time to suit up." Tony said.

"Are you sure you want to use the new core? We didn't even have a test run" Bruce said.

"Doesn't matter. Pepper is in the Expo." Tony said while suiting up. "Drift you drive towards the expo for damage control. Bruce you need to find the location of Ivan. We need to shut him down." Tony said.

"Yes, Batwing let's go we have work to do" Bruce said after he sat on the pilot seat. Like Drift, Batwing too was a transformer, thanks to the Cube. They both flew away after that. Bruce had a new suit which was made as a combination of metal and Kevlar.

Tony landed in the event and said to Rhodes " We need to get these people out of here. It's not safe"

"What? Why? What happened" Rhodes said with guilt as he felt he had betrayed Tony after letting Justin modify his suit.

"Ivan is alive. He is behind the drones here and he is coming after us. Justin where is Ivan?". Justin who was still giving presentations was shocked about hearing this. Justin had made sure that nobody knew of Ivan but now Tony knew. Justin was sweating inside.

"Tony I don't know what you are talking about." Justin denied on the spot.

"Tony we have target locked." Rhodes said from behind.

"Who is the target?" Tony asked.

"It's you. Run Tony" Rhodes shouted as all the drones had missiles and guns pointing on him. Tony had to fly away because there were people around the event and he didn't want people to die in crossfire.

The firing of bullets caused people to panic and run away. As Tony flew away, Bruce came and confronted Justin.

"Where's Ivan. I will give to 10 seconds to answer. After that your fingers will start coming off." Batman asked him.

"Hey I told already I don't have any clue. We need to control the drones somebody might have hacked it. It might be even you who wants me to be in bad press." Justin said.

"9..8.."

"I need my lawyer." Justin continued.

"6..5.."

"Fine fine. He is in the old warehouse of Hammer Industries" Justin was trembling finally said.

Bruce climbed up to the Batwing who was hovering nearby and flew away to the location given by Justin. He needed to stop Ivan and reboot Rhode's suit. Bruce couldn't hack into the suit as it was on a private server.

He went inside the warehouse after knocking down the security. As he went inside the control room he saw there was no Ivan. Bruce took out his phone and said

"Toolbox hack into the server and shut down all drones and reboot Rhodes' suit". The mobile immediately transformed into a 4 legged robot with 2 hands. Toolbox put his hands on the ports of the CPU and the screen of the main computer changed and showed various command prompts. After few seconds Toolbox finally said

"I have rebooted Rhodes' suit and stopped the drones but these drones are rigged to blow later. We will have to manually go to the scene and disable it." Toolbox said.

"Dammit. Tony did you hear that? You will have to lead the drones away from people. There is no Ivan here. He might be coming after you. I am on the way." Batman said.

Tony who was standing in front of Rhodes as he was been rebooted heard what Bruce said. As Rhodes suit came online they were ready to lead the drones away but as they were about to fly away Ivan wearing a new and improved suit which covered the whole body came flying down.

"It's good to be back." Ivan said as he took out his electrified lashes. These lashes were much longer and thicker than the last ones.
