Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 157: 70-Years-Old Young Man.

Tony, although had his company secured, still had the palladium poisoning problem. And thankfully a certain bald man with an eye patch came to hand him Howard's suitcase meant for Tony.

Fury and Tony talked in Tony's Malibu mansion.

"There are many things you don't know about Howard." Fury stated.

Tony nodded at that, "Yeah, just a few days ago I found out that he was adopted by America's Old Man. I wonder what else I don't know."

"True, he was very close to General Universe. In fact, he is one of the founders of Shield. The box there was left for you. Only you can make heads or tails from what's in it. Good luck." Fury got up to leave.

"But what am I supposed to do? You can't hold me here." Tony complained.

"Yes, I can. Agent Natasha will remain at Stark and you remember agent Coulson, right?" Fury said and dashed away after doing his I got my eye on you thing.

Tony lazily took the suitcase in and opened it. But then he noticed something strange. The initials on the suitcase were different. Instead of just H. Stark. It said property of H.M.U Stark.

"Jarvis, look at all the documentation and signatures by my father in the company files. Tell me if there's something related to these initials." He quickly commanded.

Tony went into the basement and started looking at the videotapes. Finally, when he reached the end, he saw the message from his father.

"Tony, you are too small to understand all this so I left it on film. I was not alone in my journey. I had the best mentor and father in the world. With all my knowledge, I made this. This is not just an invention but the key to the future, Tony. I'm limited by the technology of my time, but one day you'll figure this out. An old man said this to me once and I'll say it to you, 'I believe in you'. Remember, what is and always will be my greatest creation, is you, Tony" with that the video ended.

Tony had gotten emotional by then. Suddenly Jarvis spoke.

"Sir, I have only found one place where these initials match."

Tony woke up from his stupor, "Great, where did you find it?"

"On inheritance papers. He signed his name as Howard Maxim Universe Stark." Jarvis revealed.

"Wait, isn't that the name of General Universe?" He asked.

"Yes, Sir. His name was Alexander Maxim Universe." Jarvis added.

Tony went into deep thoughts, "Were they so close that dad even took his surname? Now I understand why he bought the pistol that killed Hitler. Jarvis, search for everything on General."

"I'm afraid there isn't much. All records pertaining to him were destroyed after World War. The only things that are left are his war campaign videos in the public archives." Jarvis pointed.

"Hmm, then show me those videos. I always ignored them thinking they'd be boring." Tony mumbled.

After that, he spent some hours watching all the clips.

"What in the hell, he was able to shoot planes with his revolver? How?" Tony felt more confused than at peace. So he shut the movie and got to analyzing his father's work.

Just two days later, he created a new element and went to the Stark Expo.

...

{NEWS: We are seeing live footage from Stark Expo. The new remote military drones from Hammer Industries have gone rogue. Iron Man is currently in a heated battle with the multiple drones...}

"Ah, see I told you. There is always something happening in this world." Alexander commented.

Dobby nodded, "Yeah, every year it's something new happening. Everything is so unstable here."

"Welcome to MCU, my friend." Alexander shrugged.

Suddenly the door opened and Amy ran in, "Glanpa Glanpa, look at what I found. It was flying near our roof"

She had one of Hammer droids in her hand.

"Haha, good job, Amy. But they aren't toys. They are weapons of a bad man. He's using them to hurt people." Alexander informed.

Hearing his words, she looked at the droid angrily, and then threw it. "hmph"

Suddenly the droid started to beep.

Alexander quickly picked up the droid, "Ghost, scan it and block all communication going through all these droids, also defuse them."

Soon Ghost cut Whiplash out of control. The iron man had already defeated Whiplash and was racing to save Pepper. Those bombs would have killed a lot more people than just Pepper. But Alexander could not blame Tony for worrying about his girl.

"Done, all of them were defused except the one in Whiplash's suit. It was a manual switch." Ghost announced.

"It's alright. He'd have died either way. Dobby, what do you want to eat? I'm cooking today." Alexander loudly asked.

Amy was the first to order, "I want noodles."

"I want pizza," Dobby ordered.

Alexander walked to the kitchen, "Alright, Noodles for sweet Amy. We'll take some for Oli and the kids. One pineapple pizza for Dobby."

Dobby's ears stood up, "WAIT..."

...

The next few days were peaceful. Alexander knew that the alien invasion would be happening soon. He had seen Loki being conflicted about whether he should do it or not. If he did, then Alexander would have a good reason to beat him up. If he doesn't, then good for him.

But currently, he was focused on something else. He had received the news that a powerful being was coming to destroy his planet, Finta. The being was called Terrax. He had the power to control all manner of rocks. But he wasn't a herald of Galactus yet. He was just a space pirate.

It was a low-level threat so he decided not to go himself. Instead, he decided to send Hulk. So he went to Dr. Banner.

...

"You want me to go to space and fight an intergalactic pirate? And you own a planet?" Bruce sounds worried and excited at the same time.

"Yes and yes. You don't have anything to worry about. My people will help you. This is training for Hulk. He needs to know how to fight and not just destroy." Alexander reasoned. He remembered how uncontrollable Hulk had gotten in a fight with the Hand.

"I can understand your concern but what about my job?" He asked.

"I officially give you a ten day holiday. Go beat that guy and then have fun with your girl," Alexander suggested.

"Ah... We have broken up. She said it felt weird thinking that another guy inside me was seeing everything and feeling everything." Bruce sadly informed.

Alexander patted his shoulder, "It's alright, man. You deserve better. There are tons of girls out there who would date you. Now get ready you're leaving in an hour."

...

Alexander may not be involved directly in the SHIELD but he was still the top guy in that organization. He had the level X authority which was even higher than Fury and Fury didn't even know about it.

So, when something happens in SHIELD, he finds out even before the director does.

They had found Steve and had prepared for his waking up. This time they not only sent a girl cosplaying as Agent Carter but they had sent an old man cosplaying him. All this to keep him calm

Alexander had noted it down in things to remember. Fury was obviously overdoing it. He was secretly watching a live telecast of everything.

In a building near Times Square. Steve woke up to the sound of the radio. His eyes adjusted to the light as he looked around, confused.

Suddenly the door opened and a woman in army uniform entered. If Steve's vision was blurry he would have mistaken her for Peggy but right now, he was absolutely sure she was fake.

"Good morning, or should I say good afternoon." She spoke.

Steve seriously asked, "Where am I?"

"You are in a recovery room in New York."

Steve got angry. "Don't lie to me, where am I?"

Soon, Steve was seen blasting through the walls like a truck. He ran past everyone and reached Times Square.

He was baffled by all the strange lights around him. The people also didn't look forward while walking. They looked into a slate-like thing in their hands. The cars also looked weird.

He heard tires skidding sounds and looked at the people surrounding him.

"AT EASE SOLDIER" Fury loudly called.

Off the screen, Alexander noted another in his pad of things to remember. Steve was promoted to the rank of Major General and Fury was just a Colonel.

Back at the Times Square, Steve just found out that he'd been asleep for 70 years. His face fell when the realization hit.

"You okay?" Fury asked.

Steve took a long breath and looked at the sky, "Yeah, just... I had a date... and a funeral to attend."
