Chapter 146 - V9 Ch 27: A small blackout.

"Shit shit!" Obidiha says in his office.

"She was always protective of family." Obidiha mutters knowing he's screwed up.

"It's okay, I can beat her. Then we can kill tony. The take over isn't to. Fuck she's alive! She has 40 percent stock." Obadiah says remembering.

"It's fine it's fine. I got this, I can't wait to sell it either." Obidiha says looking at the suit Tony made in the cave.

========================

Meanwhile in the lab.

"So, when did you build the particle accelerator?" Tony asks looking at the plan's Howard had.

"Well, I didn't want you to make a particle accelerator in the middle of New York!" Sandstorm shouts.

"We should also fix the arc reactor downstairs." Lisa says

"What's wrong with it?" Pepper asks

"Well if it discharges you are looking at a small not so small emp blast that may or may not knockout all of Manhattan." Sandstorm says answering for Lisa.

"That is the one we are trading over to hydrogen right?" Tony asks as Jarvis projects the schematics.

"Yes. Only yours are going to use the special new element. At least until we get to space travel. Like starship enterprise kind of space travel." Sandstorm says

"So, what's the plan?" Pepper asks looking at the design and she seems to completely understand it.

"Tony, you better make her my sister in-law in the future." Sandstorm says

Tony and Pepper just blush.

"Ah Pepper um, I don't know how to say this. But there may or may not already be a daughter." Sandstorm says while Tony stops moving completely.

"What!" Tony shouts

"You have a daughter, with all the sleeping around you did you are lucky it's only one kid!" Sandstorm shouts

"I have a daughter?" Tony asks breaking down.

"Yes, we can go find and help her after we fix your issue." Sandstorm says

"I need time..." Pepper says

"Really? I mean I get it but we will consider you family Pepper." Lisa says

"Pepper, don't stay way to long okay. I happen to believe you were a perfect match for Tony. He has issues especially since dad was killed." Sandstorm says but suddenly the sound of a record being scratched could be heard.

"What, who killed him?" Tony asks

"Well, Hydra, parts of operation paper clip went through I tried to stop it some must have slipped through." Sandstorm says

"Got it well, let's get this over with." Tony says handing the complete arc reactor to Sandstorm and sits on the bench.

Sandstorm smiles.

"Do you wanna scare Pepper to make her forgive you? Also my hands aren't long enough." Sandstorm says since she's like a foot and a half shorter than Tony who's 6 foot tall.

"Got it." Tony says with a toothy grin.

"I'm going to go head downstairs to start the refurbishment of the arc reactor." Sandstorm says heading to the elevator with Lisa.

Tony presses the intercom.

"Say Pepper how big are your hands?" Tony asks

"I don't understand." Pepper says

"Um could you get down here I need you big sister is to small to help me with this." Tony says

Pepper sighs but goes to help Tony anyway.

==================

Meanwhile Downstairs.

"Are you sure that's the right plug?" Lisa asks

"Positive." Sandstorm says holding the negative plug.

"Please don't make those puns right now." Lisa says

"Excuse me who are you two and what are you doing?" A security officer asks

"Ah, well we are shutting down the arc reactor for refurbishment." Sandstorm says full of confidence.

"Oh, is it that time already?" The guard asks

"Yeah, I was talking with Tony and we came up with a few improvements that will make it more efficient and cheaper to run." Sandstorm says

"Yep him and pepper should be coming down soon." Lisa says

================

"Are you okay?" Pepper asks breathing heavily.

"Yeah I feel great." Tony says

"Don't you ever do that again!" Pepper shouts

"Well, lets head down stairs to help my older sister on the reactor. Don't want her unplugging the negative first. That would cause it to overload since I made some changes to the design." Tony says putting on his shirt.

Suddenly the entire building goes dark. Then the street outside followed by the rest of Manhattan.

"Oh, oops." Tony says

"Tony!" Pepper shouts

"At least it wasn't an emp." Tony says

================

"What did you do!" Lisa shouts

"I don't know according to the original designs this should've worked." Sandstorm says

"Well obviously it didn't." Lisa says

"Look at the bright side, no explosions." Sandstorm says

"Wait to you see how I punish you tonight." Lisa says quietly into her ear.

And Sandstorm shivers in fear or anticipation who knows?

Suddenly he door to the stairs opens.

"Sorry sister forgot to tell you I changed the design a bit." Tony says running out with Pepper following behind him.
