    "So did Gauche Industries but not anymore" Tony pointed out


    "Pah! Gauche was an idiot giving half of his properties to the charity while the other to a kid. I don''t know what he was thinking when he gave a weapon industry to a kid Of course he would change it. It''s not even Gauche Industries anymore but Shirahama Co. you should know that they went down by 60 points." Obadiah said


    "Yes, but it has stopped going down and now that they have implemented the changes it would go only up from there and they didn''t even have someone like me so we obviously would be better than them" Tony said reassuringly.


    "And what is the n for that?" asked Obadiah


    " I think we should take another look into arc reactor technology." Tony said


    "Ah,e on. The arc reactor, that''s a publicity stunt! Tony,e on. We built that thing to shut the hippies up." Obadiah stated


    "It works." Tony said as he motioned towards the oversized arc recator


    "Yeah, as a science project. The arc was never cost effective. We knew that before we built it. Arc reactor technology, that''s a dead end, right?" asked Obadiah Stane


    "Maybe." Tony said as he shrugged his shoulders


    "Huh? Am I right? We haven''t had a breakthrough in that in what? Thirty years." Tony said


    "That''s what they say. Could you have a lousier poker face? Just tell me, who told you?" Tony said as he looked at Obadiah and knew that someone has already told him about it.


    "Never mind who told me. Show me." Obadiah said


    "It''s Rhodey or Pepper." Tony said as only the two of them had the time to tell Obadiah about it.


    "I want to see it." Obadiah said not replying to Tony''s question


    " Okay, Rhodey. "Tony says and opens his shirt to show Obadiah the reactor in his chest.


    " Okay." Obadiah begins to button Tony''s shirt back up.


    "Okay? It works." Tony said in annoyed tone seeing hisckluster reaction.


    "Listen to me, Tony. We''re a team. Do you understand? There''s nothing we can''t do if we stick together, like your father and I." Obadiah said


    "I''m sorry I didn''t give you a heads-up, okay? But if I had..." Tony tried to exin when Obadiah stopped him


    "Tony. Tony, no more of this "ready, fire, aim" business. You understand me?"


    " That was Dad''s line." Tony said


    "You gotta let me handle this. We''re gonna have to y a whole different kind of ball now. We''re going to have to take a lot of heat. I want you to promise me that you''re gonnay low." Obadiah said to which Tony nodded his head.

    Japan, Shinpaku Alliance Headquarters


    "Shit! Fuck what the hell? Bastard" Niijima was cursing Stark as soon as he heard the news, Niijima was woken around 2 Am when Stark released the news and since then Niijima has been unable to sleep.


    "Stop cursing dammit!" Kenichi said, he couldn''t hear Niijima''s cursing anymore.


    "How can I? I trusted Stark and this is how he repays me?" Niijima said


    "Don''t worry thepany points may fall more but it won''t take long before they rise up again and may even surpass their highest points till now." Kenichi stated


    "Huh! Yourpany hasn''t been able to recover even after a year you stopped creating weapon and entered the medical field" Niijima said


    "Yeah, but Stark is different he already has something that will make him number one in the field of clean and sustainable energy" Kenichi said


    "What''s that?" asked Niijima


    "He was able to miniaturize the arc reactor" stated Kenichi


    "What? That science project of theirs! Are you sure?" asked Niijima


    "Yes, because I have seen it, that''s what''s keeping him alive for now. Though it won''t work for long that''s why I am hoping to see if I can get Master Akisame and Master Kensei toe with me to America or bring Stark to japan so that they can help him." Kenichi exined


    "Ok, If you need to make it so that they can go to Japan just tell. A private jet will take them there" Niijima said as he understood how important it is for him for Stark to stay alive.


    "Ok" Kenichi said as he knew why Niijima was so eager to help.

    Stark Mansion, where Pepper is watching the news.


    Newcaster: "Stark Industries! I''ve got one rmendation! Ready? Ready? Sell, sell, sell! Abandon ship! Does the Hindenburg ring any bells? Let me show you the new Stark Industries business n! Look, that''s a weaponspany that doesn''t make weapons!"


    Tony Stark asks Over the intes "Pepper. How big are your hands?"


    "What?" asked Pepper


    " How big are your hands?" Tony asked again


    "I don''t understand why..." Pepper said when Tony interrupted her.


    " Get down here. I need you." Pepper enters Tony''s workshop to find Tony lying shirtless on a chair. "Hey. Let''s see them. Show me your hands. Let''s see them." Pepper holds up her hands as shees closer. "Oh, wow. They are small. Very petite, indeed. I just uh.. need your help for a sec."


    "Oh, my God, is that the thing that''s keeping you alive?" asked Pepper as she saw Tony holding his old arc reactor in his hand.


    "It was. It is now an antique. This is what will be keeping me alive for the foreseeable future. I''m swapping it up for an upgraded unit, and I just ran into a little speed bump." said Tony as he showed her the arc reactor that he took from one of his armours.


    " Speed bump, what does that mean?" asked Pepper


    "It''s nothing. It''s just a little snag. There''s an exposed wire under this device. And it''s contacting the socket wall and causing a little bit of a short. It''s fine." Tony pulls out the old device, handing it to Pepper.


    "What do you want me to do?" asked Pepper


    "Put that on the table over there. That is irrelevant." Tony said


    " Oh, my God! " Pepper mumbled while setting the old reactor on the table.


    " I want you to reach in, and you''re just gonna gently lift the wire out." Tony said


    "Is it safe?" asked Pepper


    "Yeah, it should be fine. It''s like Operation. You just don''t let it touch the socket wall or it goes "beep."" Tony joked


    "What do you mean, "Operation"?" she Pepper


    "It''s just a game, never mind. Just gently lift the wire." Tony said


    "Okay." Pepper replied


    " Okay? Great." Tony said


    " You know, I don''t think that I''m qualified to do this." Pepper said still not sure it was safe to do


    "No, you''re fine. You''re the most capable, qualified, trustworthy person I''ve ever met. You''re gonna do great. Is it too much of a problem to ask? ''Cause I''m..." Tony started to ramble when pepper stopped him


    "Okay, okay."


    " I really need your help here." Tony said


    " Okay." Pepper slides her hand into the hole in Tony''s chest. "Oh, there''s pus!"


    "It''s not pus. It''s an inorganic smic discharge from the device, not from my body." Tony exined


    " It smells!" Pepper scrunched her nose.


    " Yeah, it does. The copper wire. The copper wire, you got it?" Tony nodded his head excepting the fact that it smells while also exining to Pepper what she needs to do.


    "Okay, I got it! I got it!" Pepper stated


    "Okay, you got it? Now, don''t let it touch" Pepper lets it touch the side causing Tony flinch and painfully continue "the sides when you''reing out!"


    "I''m sorry. I''m sorry." Pepper says


    "That''s what I was trying to tell you before. Okay, now make sure that when you pull it out, that you don''t..." Pepper pulls out the wire with the ma attached and the medical equipment starts beeping. "There''s a ma at the end of it! That was it. You just pulled it out."


    "Oh, God!" Pepper said


    "Okay, I was not expecting..." Tony said


    "Okay, what do I do?" asked Pepper as she tried to put back the ma in


    "Don''t put it back in! Don''t put it back in!" Tony raised his voice.


    "What''s wrong?" asked Pepper


    "Nothing, I''m just going into cardiac arrest--" Tony said painfully


    "What? You said it was safe!" Pepper shouted


    " ''cause you yanked it out like a trout... We gotta hurry. Take this. Take this. You gotta switch it out really quick." said Tony as he hands over the better arc recator to Pepper


    "Okay. Okay. Tony?" Pepper said


    "What?" asked Tony


    " It''s going to be okay. Okay?" Pepper stated


    "Is it?"


    " It''s gonna be okay. I''m gonna make this okay." Pepper said with assurance


    "Let''s hope. Okay, you''re gonna attach that to the base te. Make s-sure you..." Tony Screams went it attaches and after taking a few breaths he said "Was that so hard? That was fun, right? Here, I got it. I got it. Here. Nice."


    "Are you okay?" asked Pepper


    "Yeah, I feel great. You okay?"
