Red-X

Chapter 9

The red light turns on, then it's off. Now it's on again. "Mr. Stark, we have an intruder in our living room." A robotic voice forces it's way in Tony's ears.

"Thank you Jarvis, I'll be on top of it." Tony Stark rolls out of bed. He picks up a metal base ball bat from under his bed, and walks out of his bedroom.

Tony slowly walks down the dark hallway, to the living room. He tries to turn on the lights, but none flicked on. Then he spots a dark figure. Not much to see, but he knows he's wearing dark leather clothing, but it's really hard to see his face. Tony can easily tell he's bald at the top, also dark skinned. "Alright, come on out." He aims his bat at the dark figure.

"I've been wanting to meet you Mr. Stark." The figure says as he slowly walks in his view.

"Who are you?" Stark gets a good look at the man wearing a eye patch.

"Click,click!" Kevin jumps up from his iron man comic to spot a gun pointed at his head. The man that holds this pistol, is the same person that robbed him a couple nights ago. "Hey, how's it going."

For how annoyed Kevin is at this person, he has no choice but to put his hands up, because he really doesn't want to get shot. "Now what? You gonna rob me for the money, take the new stuff that just came in stock? Go ahead, it won't be bad if i get fired after.

"Oh keep your panties up your butt, i just want to talk." He takes off his mask to reveal the red headed, dark skinned kid from before, holding a smile upon his face. Then blood pours out of the side of his mouth. Kevin now realizes that there are a couple of bullet holes on his jacket, but no blood stains.

"Dude, what the hell happen to you?" He sounds surprisingly worried, in which he shouldn't. Kevin has to remind his self that he was the one that robbed him, almost costing his job.

"Oh right," He wipes the blood off his face. "I also wanted to say sorry." He places a duffle bag on the glass counter. Kevin slowly opens it to find money, lots of it.

Kevin instantly closes it and shoots a glare at this bad person. "What is this! Where did you get it?" His voice cracks.

"It's money obviously," He shrugs and rolls his eyes. "A nice gun store kindly handed it to me, including a sexy machine gun. Along with a couple of bullets up my ass. They're nice people." He sighs.

"This should help pay for whatever i stole," He continues. "Plus i want to buy something." He looks around the store. Then he gasps at something he locks his eyes with. Kevin followers where his eyes are glued on, then it clicked. "Is that the noir Spiderman trench coat and hat?" His voice starts to get high pitch for each word he speaks.

"Yes it is," Kevin almost laughs. "Its only hundred and seventy dollars."

"I'll take it!" He slams his hands down on the counter.

Kevin pretty much shrugs and says "deal."

"Coolio," He fixes his messy, dyed red hair, and puts back on his mask. "Let's get back to talking." Then the bell rang, that means someone just walked into the shop. The person that walked in Kevin's view was his girlfriend, Amy. His hair stood at end when he watched this wanna be Deadpool pull out his other pistol and aimed it at her.

"Uh, uh, uh, uh." Amy looks at both Kevin and the person that's about to shoot her, maybe.

"Uh, uh, uh, underwear. Were you trying to say underwear?" He repeats a line from a bad video game.

"Amy," They both turn to him. "Babe, i need you to meet me at the apartment. Don't worry about him." He looks to him. "He's just a old friend that you just startled." Amy just nods and begins to slowly walk to the door. Then that walk turn into a sprint out the door.
