Multiverse of Marvel

Chapter 45: I am Iron Man

"Here's your alibi. You were on a yacht and here's the signature of 15 people who can testify for this. And John you can just say the half truth. Of course the thing of other universe should be omitted. I think you know what you say." Coulson said after handing the statement to Tony.

"Iron man. That's a nice name. Bruce what do you think?" Tony asked as reading the newspaper. Bruce just shrugged and didn't say anything while Coulson left.

"I have a gift for you all for defeating Obadiah." John said while bringing out a cubic suitcase.

"Gift? Are you going to give me the shares of my company back?" Tony asked as he knew John bought many shares when it went down.

"No Tony, it's much better than that?" said John while opening the suitcase. "I got it much earlier but I think this is will be more helpful for you. Of course I might have to take it for some of it's uses in future." Bruce and Tony both looked at it. Tony suddenly thought of something and became excited.

"Is this what I think it is?" Tony asked.

"Yes, it's the Cube" John said. "Use it well."

"Thanks John." Bruce said.

"OK let's go for the press release."

In the press release John came to the podium first.

"Hello Mr. John the videos circulating say that the guy in the fight in the freeway was Batman. Is that true?" a reporter asked. Because all already knew John wasn't Batman because in body structure wise his body is completely different from Batman.

"Yes it was Bruce Wayne. I can say truthfully that he is indeed real and he is my friend but I can't reveal his face. That's the least I can do as a friend and protect him." John said. This caused a commotion.

"Is the story in your movie real?" another reporter asked after silence prevailed.

"Yes some of the parts are indeed real, but some are just for selling the movie" John said. "Now Tony will give his press release" John continued.

"Thanks John. Now I will follow the script unlike last time to buy vilify myself again" Tony said as he laughed and came on stage

And the following scenes followed exactly like in the original world.

"I am not a superhero because that would be ridiculous and..... fantastic" Tony said being little distracted.

"I never said you are a superhero" the reporter said who questioned him before.

"The truth is..... I AM IRON MAN" Tony said with a smirk. And immediately the reporters went crazy and started asking him questions but he left turning around refusing to take any questions.

" So it starts." John said.

"Yes and it starts. This is going to be a long and dangerous journey. I hope we will strong enough." Bruce said while standing beside him.

" I hope so too." John said.

"Let's go. I can't wait to try the power of the cube." Tony said

"Tony at first try to solve your problem" John said in a serious expression while pointing to his chest

" You know it too? Well I guess you will know since you can see glimpses of future. Will I be able to get rid of the poisoning?" Tony asked

"Tony the future I see is never constant. It changes. Don't rely on my powers but yes in alternate future you did find the solution. I just don't know, maybe you can look into your father's work. It might help." John reminded Tony which was almost close to the truth as future is never constant. Him being in the universe already means that the trajectory has changed.

"I understand. Bruce? What will you do? Do you want to try this Cube's powers?

" Sure. " Bruce said.

Soon after John left for New York. He had work to do now. Since Batman became real his influence in the world would change as he was the friend of superhero. He was thinking of expanding his network by starting a television channel and broadcasting various cartoons from previous life to extract more fans. There was a sharp rise in the number of fans after Batman came out real. He was happy about it and he needed to capitalize on it.

[Ding

Total number of fan values - 6 million]

"It rose 1 million in just 2 days and it's still rising. That' good. I need to think of a world which can influence all but be equally balanced. Now the plot of Iron Man 2 will start. I will try to help if there is diversion in the story. Bruce can help him too. I have two more year for Thor. Let' start with mythology. I already have a character during his emergence. Bruce needs more suit too. I hope the cube can help him in this regard. "John thought to himself.
