David Stark

David storms out of yet another on of his dads board meetings that he was force to go to after his mom declared that Stark Industries would become a family affair. He couldn't stand sitting in on a Bunch of suits talking about the Ark reactor being a clean source of energy. David Knew what the really wanted. The Iorn man suit. Why else would a military general be sitting and the end of the table twitting his thums Impatiently. Another thing he couldn't stand was this monkey suit he had to ware to make him look ''OFFICAL''. He quickly undid the tie and threw it on the bed as he entered his bed room Located at the top of the Stark tower.

'' Talk to me Jarvis how are we looking ?'' he said to the Artificial Intelligence that his Dad installed in all his buildings. '' The Prodigy is at 90% completion. However young sir I still question the method of deployment.'' replies the AI. David pick's up a small wrist watch then examines it on a work table. '' What....what's wrong. James bond always had a spy watch. Who say's I can hide a full set of armor in side a Rolex.'' replies Davis. " Uh perhaps the laws of physic's, sir.'' replies Jarvis. Davis Tinkers at the Wrist watch with a small tool. " Uh-huh....and that's always stopped dad from kicking the shit outta Intergalactic...uh...things. Tell ya' what Jarvis. if it works you deli pizza for me for a whole week, and if It doesn't well you can tell dad all about how I stole his little blue prints, and well....made them better.'' a holographic image of The Prodigy Armor appears in front of David. as the Rolex begins to Tick normally. Jarvis just replies sarcastically. '' As you wish, young sir.''

Astrid sat in class sort of daydreaming as the stoic teacher went through his history lesson in a monotone voice. "Im passing back your book reports and I must say I was impressed by how thorough some of you were on your topics of interest. Miss Foster", he tapped Astrid on the shoulder. I'm very impressed with yours, the extensive information you had on Norse mythology and viking history was very interesting. I commend you on on your grade, very rarely do find one of my students reports to be so enthralling that I don't want to put it down till I'm finished".

Astrid nodded "Thank you sir" she blushed slightly as some in the class laughed at her, the teacher nodded and continued passing out the rest of the graded assignments.

ᴬ⁺ 150/100

She hated getting papers like this sometimes, it usually ended up with her getting teased, she sighed and as soon as the bell tolled she bolted out the door and to her locker. "Just be grateful it's your last year of high school" she said quietly to herself, the fact that is was a school on a military base didn't help either. "Astrid dear your just special that all", she heard this all the time from her mother, but that didn't change the fact it was embarrassing as hell.

She stood staring into the mirror in the back of her locker at the necklace around her neck it was a gift from her mother on her tenth birthday,"Thor's hammer" she mumbled.

"Oh so the freak is talking to herself again" said a loud obnoxious voice at the locker next to her. Griffin Marx was one of the many school bullies that liked to pick on Astrid and his locker was just four down from her. "Didn't ya hear me freak", he said again, Astrid sighed and continued grabbing the books she would need to take home with her. Suddenly the locker door was slammed shut, but Astrid was quick and expecting it she pulled her backpack out before the door shut.

"Griffin I don't have time to sit and listen to you be an idiot I have to get home ans start dinner so if you don't mind. Can we get this fight over with quickly" Astrid was well know around the school for winning fist fights that she was tossed into. But this was the first time someone had forcefully decided that they wanted to fight her.

Griffin smirked "So you think you can beat me, just because you beat the crap out of Collin last week. He's a puss it doesn't surprise me that you kicked his ass", Griffin laughed.

Astrid threw her backpack over her shoulder, "Well let get on with it" she walked ahead of him as he and his gang of thugs followed behind her. There was an empty field next to the school that the ROTC typically used for drills. She sat her backpack down on the side and turned to face Griffin, he shrugged off his leather jacket and stood in front of Astrid. "It's gonna be fun beating you down bitch", he said with his crocked teeth grin. Balling up his fist, pulling back to send a right hook right into Astrid's face.

But in a blink she grabbed his arm in mid punch, hefted the much bigger Griffin over her head and slammed him on the ground behind her. She then cranked his arm behind his back almost to the breaking point. "If pull any harder Griffin I will snap your arm so I suggest you give right now".

Griffin had tears streaming down his cheeks and mumbled a response, Astrid took that as the sign he had, had enough and released him from the painful hold. She walked back to her bag and walked away from the field leaving Griffin and his goons in shock, she lived in a house on base and it didn't take her long to jog home. She knew it would be some time before her mother got off from her shift at the military hospital so Astrid decided to begin prepping food for dinner.

David Stark

The Elevator that lead to Davids room chimed '' Young Sir, Mr. Stark is aporching Via the Primary elevator terminal.'' David quickly minimized all the Blue prints, and quickly put on the Rolex and jumped in his bed appearing to be reading a time magazine as Tony Stark arrived in his room. '' Hay slugger. Hows it going.'' David shurgs '' eh nothing much. Just board.'' Tony looked around the room. '' eh well sorry Kid. This is Business.'' Replies tony taking a sip from the Martini he had with him. '' You know you should really Pay attention to what happens in those board meetings after all this will Turning out being your job someday.'' Davis rolls his eyes. '' Wile you fly off as full time Iron man, right.'' Tony chokes on the martini.

'' koff koff. Well....koff y'know. uhh i can't just stop being The Iron man. The town needs me and All.'' David tosses the magazine and jumps up on his bed. " I could help you y'know. You know with the butt kicking and everything.'' Tony shook his head. '' eh eh Sorry Kid Iron man don't have a side kick. Beside you couldn't work an Armmor with out ARK reactor.'' he taps his chest. '' its what makes the whole thing work.'' David jumped off his bed. " I don't need a reactor Impeded in my chest cavity.''

"Wow it smells wonderful in here" said Jane as she set her keys and purse down, she walked into the kitchen to see her daughter Astrid. She looked over Astrid's shoulder "Chicken and noodles sounds good to me. How as your day Astrid?" she asked.

Astrid sighed "Alright I guess..." as she kept stirring the food.

"Oh no... Honey don't tell me you got in another fight, I can't afford to get another set of parents off my back again" Jane said as she slumped down into one of the kitchen chairs.

"I'm sorry mom but the guy challenged me, I couldn't just back down" she sighed as she took the pot off the burner.

"Your too much like your father sometimes" whispered Jane to herself, so Astrid wouldn't hear.

Astrid spooned some food into a bowl and set it down in front of her mother "If I knew who my father was I could maybe avoid acting like him" she said "I'm going to my room" she turned to left out of the kitchen.

Jane sighed how she wished Astrid could know her father she was sure he would be elated to know that they had a child, but the consequences of the government or worse finding out who Astrid's father was too great of a chance. "Honey I wish you could know your father" she said under her breath as she began to eat her food.

David

David looked back at his dad with a slight smirk as he pressed a button on the side of the watch. he stood firm as sheets of metal armor formed over his body similar to the Iron Man Armor. and at the chest peace a Ark reactor formed. Tony Stark Looked Shocked and Slightly impressed. '' JARVIS....lock down My son's Davids Armor...Now.'' David interrupter. '' Belay that Order Jarvis, Authorization prodigy Alpha.'' The Helmet Enclosed Over Davids face.

he turned away from his father. '' Jarvis begin scanning Suit data for any abnormalities.'' he Walked out to the balcony and activated the suits rockets and Lifted off. Tony Stood there shocked. '' No one.... commands Jarvis but me.''

Prodigy soured the the sky as he pulled off aerial stunts. '' WOOOOO THIS IS AWSOME HA HA HA.'' Jarvis Chimed in inside the helmet. '' Scans complete young sir. Now sighs of abnormalities, and Ark reactor is Preforming at optimum efficiency.'' Prodigy leveled himself out. '' Right then open the SHEILD files. The Avenger. '' Several Files on appear on the heads up display. information on the avengers and what happened to all of them after the Project was disbanded.''. Jarvis Interrupted. '' Sir Ive located a target, Possibly a disendant of one of the previous Avenger's.''

'' track'em Jarvis. Send me the Location to my HUD.'' said Prodigy as he altered his Course

Astrid hadn't spoken to her mother for the rest of the night and by the time she woke up in the morning her mother had gone to work. She was starving cause of the choice she had made the night before not to eat. As she made herself some scrambled eggs, she thought about the slight argument that she had, with her mother the night before as well. It was an argument they had been having since Astrid was about 10 years old, and the answer was always that her mother didn't know. But then Astrid would her comments like she did last night and she knew her mother wasn't telling the whole truth, it really pissed her off cause she was always truthful with her mother. But she insisted on keeping something as important as her parentage from her, when she was younger she had wondered if her father was some serial killer or rapist or...something. But now she knew there was just something her mother wasn't willing to tell her, "Why doesn't she trust me?" she sad to herself. When the smell of scorching hit her nose she knew she had spent too much time daydreaming and had almost burnt her breakfast.

After slapping the "good" parts of her eggs on a couple of slices of toast she was heading out the door to school. She had thought briefly about skipping today but living on a army base that plan hardly ever worked.

She was surprised at the amount of people chatting outside the school Did you hear about the new guy I heard his reeeeally cute" said one girl to the other.

Astrid shook her head she never understood the "fan girl" fascination that some girls fell into and she proceeded to find a tree to lean up against until school started. She always got weird looks from girls, because she was tall, had blonde hair, and a body that many girls would die to have. But Astrid never had to do a thing, no exercise, no dieting she always looked like this and girls hated her for it. Or they were curious as to why she wasn't one of the most popular girls in school. The truth was Astrid didn't like people who thought they were better then another person based on the fact that they were prettier then everyone else.

"Hey Astrid whats up?, she looked up to see her best friend "Hey, Bailey" she said.

They guy before her was a head shorter then her, had large, thick black glasses on, and Captain America t-shirt on. The kid was by everyone else's standards considered be a geek, but Bailey was one of the nicest person you would ever meet. He had an obsession over the Avengers, he had all kind of books and merchandise at his house, much to the chagrin to his father who was a General. All tough guys like General Hicks wanted their sons to be muscle headed idiots like themselves. So to have a total dork for a son is very disappointing to him and he never ceases to let Bailey know either.

"Soo you hear the rumors about the new kid that just enrolled?" he asked with pure enthusiasm over the social buzz that was floating around school.

"I think it's kind of odd for someone to be coming in a couple of months before school get out, but hey I'm not the principle. So if someone want to come in and the tail end of school I guess it's their prerogative" she said as she pushed away from the tree.

"I also heard through the grape vine that you beat the holy hell out of Griffin yesterday too" he said with a smile. "Almost broke his arm, I swear Astrid are you sure your not some kind of super hero from another planet, like in the comic books?" he chuckled.

This was a conversation that she had been having with him since they were in the third grade, "Nooo, I'm sure I'm not some kind of super hero" Astrid sighed.

"Maybe your a mutant? I've been hearing allot about that lately in the news there's supposed to be some school in New York. All kinds of secret shit" he said with genuine concern for her.

That was a new explanation, Astrid thought about it for a moment, maybe he was right and that's why her mother wold tell her anything about her father. "I don't know maybe I am..." it was then the bell rang and everyone started to file into school to start the day. The pair walked in hoping the day would be fairly uneventful.

David Stark

David Strode up to the school Looking as Swag as he could he wore Dark sun glasses so that his eyes couldn't be seen. He also wore a leather jacket, The watch that activated the Prodigy stood on stand by. He Passed some of the High school girls he Pointed at them and clicked his tongue at them. '' Your Enjoying yourself arn't you sir.'' Jarvis said through the ear set he had plunged in his hears. "' just continue scanning for who ever it is we're looking for.'' David Mutter to the AI. Wile he walked through his Glasses he was scanning Everyone He looked at for Possible SHEILD information. So far he had discovered No one but common foke

Bailey and Astrid walked up to their lockers, Astrid was still thinking about her mother "He must be the new guy" said Bailey.

Astrid turned to see a guy with dark sunglasses on, who was obviously attracting attention from the girls, the guy looked like all the typical self absorbed, pompous ass's that were the "popular kids" in school. "Must be a typical General's kid, no offence Bailey", said Astrid.

"None taken, I know I'm not normal but I enjoy being different. Besides in ten years when I'm a computer genius this guy is gonna a drunk, wasted in a bar in Tahoe" he laughed.

Astrid laughed and shook her head, "Yeah your right it's always the one that were considered odd or nerds in high school that become successful" she said as she closed her locker. She noticed the guy had blue tooth or something stuck in his ear and he was talking, "I never understood blue tooth, back in the day if you saw someone talking to themselves like that you just assumed they were crazy" said Astrid.

"Your weird like that Astrid, you always act like your from another time. Maybe that's why you are the way you are, your a time traveler with amnesia" Bailey said.

Astrid rolled her eyes "Why does that sound like a bad episode of Doctor Who" she sighed "Come on we need to get Physics before the teacher blows a gasket".

The pair did there best to get ahead of the new kid and his entourage of fangirls "I don't know why but he seems familiar like someone I've seen on TV or something" she whispered to Bailey.

"I know it's like he thinks he's Tony Stark or something" he laughed.

As David passed a Boy and Girl at there Locker. A beeping rung in Davids ear set. '' Sir I may have located a possible candidate.'' David made sure not make eye contact and whispered to himself. '' Specify...." Jarvis continued. '' That young lady you just passed sir. Her Muscle tone, and Height are inconstant with average human physiology.'' David Snuck behind a corner hall wall. '' so what dose that have to do with anything. she's a big chick.'' Jarvis. continued. '' Also there's a confirmed SHIELD trace on her.'' This perked david interest. '' Really....'' said David with a smirk. '' I believe she's going to the Physics room.'' advised Jarvis. David trailed behind them a ways. Once he was in the class room. He sat in a Desk and propped up on the desk as the teacher began to drone on.

Bailey and Astrid sat next to each other in class but Astrid kept looking back at the new guy who was sitting casually in the back of the room. "Miss foster perhaps you would like to come up and do the next problem on the board" the room was filled with slight giggling from other's in the class. The only time this teacher made someone do problems in front of the class was when he thought they weren't paying attention to his lecture.

Astrid sighed and shook her head "Yes sir", she said as she walked up to the board. Why was this guy getting to her maybe it was his air of sure arrogance around him like he was too smart or good for the class. It was those type of attitudes that grated on her nerves, she took the chalk in her hand and began to work out the equation on the board. The laughing stopped as Astrid's hand flew across and in about a minute she had it solved, she set the chalk gently down in the tray and sat back down. The teacher brought his manual up to the board with an astonished look on his face, quickly glancing back and forth between the book and the board. It was right and he didn't know what to do at that point, most of the time he would have something to critique but there was nothing it was completely correct.

"How did you do that... we haven't even studied the equation to solve this by yet" he mumbled.

It was mere chance that brought Zane Rogers to the door of the class at that moment, he actually managed to show up to school today. He never fell behind in his school work, it was just his tendency top not show up to class that caused problems for him, the teachers have for the most part gotten use to it and ignore him, though some do make a fuse once in a while, despite his grades all being B's or better for the assignments where he doesn't need to show up to do. He walked in the room in black clothes that looked a little too comfortable to be in any way formal, the first thing people might notice about him is his impressive height as he walked into the room and headed to his seat in the back of the room, "Mr Rogers, how nice is it for you to join us for once, but please try to show up on time too..." said the teacher as Zane just shrugged it off and sat down, which made the teacher sigh before returning to the lesson as Zane quickly seemed to fall asleep as he laid back in his chair with his feet on the desk, He was running around the city all night and was kicked out of the house and told to go to school today, so he was tired and couldn't sleep in his own bed now, that was annoying to him.

David rolled his eyes then raised hand. The teacher acknowledged him. " Yeah...umm I'll give ya a Hundred bucks If ya shut up because you obviously have no clue what your talking about.'' he took off his sun glasses and pulled a Hundred dollar bill outta his pocket. he walked up to the Teacher and slapped the bill on his desk. '' There ya go buy your self something nice eh.'' he turns to the class. '' Seriously you guys. You really wanna listen the this tool read Que cards for an hour and fifteen minutes.'' the whole room was quiet. '' I'ld take that as a no. So why don't some of you Kiddies pull out your I-phones or Whatever Tinker toy's you happen to have under your desk. Which I know you guys have. Ummmm I could've sworn I hacked into someones I-pad. which was a surprise to me. Those things are ment for Business men not apps. by the way your download for My little Pony Season one is finished just thought you'ld know.'' A kid in the third row of chairs slumps down in his chair blushing.

" What i'm interested in is how in the hell someone in the U.S Public educational system could salve a baby like this.'' He looks at Astrid. '' i'm impressed. What you got some kinda of secret Math power or something there. Miss ???'' asked David leaning up agents the board.

Astrid raised an eyebrow at the new guy, "Foster, Astrid Foster and actually I study... not that you know anything about that".

Bailey's eyes went wide when the new kid took off his sunglasses Oh my God it's Iron Man's son! he said in excitement.

Astrid looked the kid up and down now she remembered where she had seen him before, and it had been on TV he was Tony Stark's son but what the hell was he doing here. Bailey looked like he was going to hyperventilate and pass out. Astrid rolled her eyes "You know if you have a problem with the public education system then why the hell are you here Mr. Stark she said.

The teacher was drooling over the bill that the rich kid had slapped down on his desk "You kids do whatever you want I'm going to take a break" he turned and walked out the door.

David Placed a hand and Astrid's shoulder motioning to the door. '' Can I talk to your for a minute. Just in privet.'' David Lead her out into halls of the school and held his hand out in greeting. "David Stark, you probably heard of me. listen You may not know this But your are currently under satalite trace by Non-Government founded organization, know as SHIELD. I was able to find you using some advanced technology used by my Father's Industry, and I took the first. Ummm plaine flight here. I think I might be able to help you. I may have Access to information, That well probably Shouldn't even exist. That is Unless you enjoy living alone with your mother on a Military Base, even though have no record of your father or any service men under the name of Foster.'' said David after giving off detailed Information on her. '' or am I just wasting your time, and mine '' Because seriously there's about three other people I could be looking for right about now.''

Astrid gave an awkward face as David pulled her outside the classroom. He started talking a mile a minute "Whoa Whoa slow down, first of all Foster is my mothers name I don't know what my father's name is. Secondly why are you after me, and what do you mean a tracking device?" she asked. What did she have to do with anything secret... then she thought about it maybe that was why her mother didn't say anything about her father. "Are you trying to tell me I have something to do with the Avengers... I think your mistaken theres nothing that extraordinary about me"

David shrugged. '' eh....find then I guess there isn't anything extraordinary about a High school girl, Physicality superior to her pears. Yeah nothing strange about how even you don't have a father you and your mother have absolutely no finial troubles what so ever. Well I guess i'm wrong. yep David Stark is totally out of his rocker. Sorry for wasting your time.'' david starts to walk off. '' If you wanna go back to your little class that i'm sure you fit in perfect with. go ahead. later.'' he turns back at her for a second. '' but what I'm talking about is the real deal.'' then he turns back to walk out

"Hey wait!" said Astrid "Don't think your pulling that stupid reverse Psychology crap on me, Im generally interested" she said as she grabbed his shoulder. "But I have to tell my mom I'm leaving, Im not a multibillionaires kid I can't just catch the next flight to god knows where without telling my mother" she said. "But I want to know more okay... I've always wondered why Im different guys pick fights with me at least once a week becuase I can bench press more then them. But it's still hard for me to wrap my head around being something... special".

"Next runners, please take your places."
With a confident twitch of her lips, Valencia sauntered up to the starting line, using her fingers to shake out her long, dirty blonde hair, before she quickly tied it back in a messy, high ponytail. Some loose strands fell in front of her eyes, which she blew out of the way as she prepared herself to run like she never had before. Through the crowd, you could hear many people cheering her name, and lots of guys whistled for her. Her eyes had determination set in them, and she wet her lips as the countdown began.
"On your marks, get set... GO!" And like that, Valencia was off, launching into a furious sprint that in a matter of seconds, had left all the other competitors far behind.
"And number 103 is off to a very strong start, unbelievable!" the announcer called through the loudspeaker. A small smile made it's way to Valencia's face as she continued on, not slowing down even slightly, but rather picking up speed and momentum as she went further. As she heard excitement pick up in the audience, she felt unstoppable, flying down the track. Before she knew it, she was nearing the finish line, and the noise from the crowd intensified. Valencia's face broke into a wide smile as she sped over the finishing line, many of the other runners barely halfway through the race. They all dropped to the ground in exhaustion, but Valencia showed no signs of weariness, instead she did a sort of strut skip down the track, flaunting her hips as she pulled her hair out of it's ponytail and flipped it back and forth. More guys continued to whistle, and she blew a few kisses to the audience as the announcer cheered through the loudspeaker. She grinned victoriously before turning around and jogging over to the other runners who all finished behind her.
"Hey, Amanda!" she called out to a girl who, once she saw Valencia approaching her, immediately turned and headed in the other direction. Valencia sighed in frustration and picked up her pace to catch up with the girl who stormed off. Sure, Valencia could appear very hoity toity when she won, which was constantly the case, but every time she tried to act decent towards Amanda, she just wouldn't give her a fair chance.
"Amanda," she called again as she came up to her side, "I just wanted to say you did a really great job, that's all. I'm really really impressed." she put a hand on her shoulder and looked her in the eyes for a few moments, giving a genuine smile, then jogged off before she could hear the snide response that she knew she would get. Some of the other participants in the race came up and patted her on the back, congratulating her. She thanked them and smiled before jogging off into the locker room.
