Liam thought he could wrap it up and be done with it quite early, but he thought wrong. Finding and killing those ninjas took some time as they had been hiding and Liam on the behest of Anatoly raided the base of Steel Serpent.
There were more guards to fight against and thus by the time it had ended, it was late 3 am. Thankfully by the time he returned everyone was asleep and his parents didn't bother him all night. Liam knew that in the next few days, the news in New York would explode, exposing major players.
Especially Wesley, who be an ace to this whole situation. He had been given strict orders to not lose sight of Fisk. The next few days as expected, the new blew out.
The Police uncovered drug and human trafficking network all over the city, which started at Hell's Kitchen and spread like a cancer on the streets. People came out in droves one time in Times Square, asking for intervention from the President himself and make Hell's Kitchen better and more livable.
It was all the rage and chaos fermenting, and SHIELD had to get involved since it was related to the deaths on the Pier, but they couldn't find any other clues to the man. The SHIELD now had an official name to the butcher in the Pier.
No, they didn't name him the Bay Harbor Butcher.
They named him, the Wraithborn.
If Liam ever heard that name, he would have been surprised since SHIELD wasn't exactly wrong in calling him Wraithborn and he would like that name too.

A week later.
As Liam came back from school, he saw two very luxurious cars waiting on the side of the road. Liam thought some investors might have shown up to his home, and just walked inside only to see Tony and Pepper having a chat with his parents.
While Happy, Yinsen and a new woman was sitting on the side.
"Liam, look, who is here." Olivia had a huge smile on her face. She had never expected that Tony Stark himself would show up at their home.
"Hey man, pack your bags, we will going for a fun trip to Europe." Tony said.
"And why will I do that?" Liam asked, in quite a rude tone.
"Liam, how many times I told you, don't speak to someone in such a rude behavior." Mason wasn't happy at all. He had noticed that Liam and Tony always butt their heads against each other. Though Tony would also fight against Liam like a child, he didn't like these fight as he felt Tony had helped them so much.
"It's alright Mr. Woodsworth. Liam is my peer. Here I thought, I will hide the fact that we will have a party on a yacht in Monaco. But, I guess, you won't go for it." Tony teased.
"No.. No.. Our family is ready to go for this vacation. Our son doesn't like birthday parties, but we do. He needs to socialize." Olivia said.
"No mom.." Liam protested.
"Did I stutter?" Olivia glared at Liam, which made Liam just give up.
"Hehe.. It's nice to see someone have reigns to this wild horse." Tony chuckled. "I have already invited your friends and their families, for the vacation and party, so that you don't feel left out. Now get ready." Tony said.
"We are going now?" Liam asked.
"Do you wish to wait till next year to go? Chop chop.. Don't forget the tanning lotion." Tony said. Pepper and others could only shake their heads on the childishness.
Soon everyone had arrived at the John F Kennedy Airport where he was united with Bonnie and Chris, along with their family. They were more than thrilled to add themselves into the party as all expenses had been paid. Though they were receiving quite an amount of money, it was nowhere near so much that they could take a private jet to Monaco and spend few days there.
Who would say no to that.
"Dude, we will be watching Monaco Historic Grand Prix, can you imagine.. It's like a dream come true.." Chris said.
"There is nothing dreamy about it. The track has too many sharp turns and very narrow, the drivers can't show their real speed in this track at all. It would have been much better if they used rough terrain vehicles instead of using high speed vehicles in this kind of race tracks." Liam said.
"You can't deny that driving fast cars in those kinds of lanes, needs precision and control." Chris argued back, while loading the luggage and going straight to the hangar instead of making a queue.
The power of elite.
Soon Liam found himself on a window seat and took it, which also had an extra seat on the aisle. The plane was quite big, more than enough space for everyone to take window seats, and he loved sitting alone, but alas. His anti-social behavior didn't get unnoticed as Tony came and sat beside him.
"I thought you love sitting alone." Liam said.
"Normally I would sit with Pepper, or with the new Secretary Pepper hired. But this is a special circumstance." Tony said.
"You can always text me with your emojis about that." Liam just rolled his eyes and said.
"Those emojis are sent by JARVIS. Not by me. By the way, I have to thank you for JARVIS. I have been able to make JARVIS, a fully functional work buddy, which can now control the Stark Industries too." Tony said.
"Tony, I will warn this once and for all, if you make a terrible AI and I see an inkling of developing an AI which would allow itself to grow, I will come and personally slay you." Liam said.
"Wait. Wow.. What's up with that hostility.. I will never make such an AI..."
"I don't want to hear excuses Tony.. I know somewhere deep in your mind you have that small thought. I am saying this again to bury such thoughts." Liam reiterated again.
"Fine.. I promise that if I want to build one, I will give you a headsup." Tony said. He didn't promise to never make it, but a headsup would be fine in the books of Liam.
