Taylor Ackart It was the weekend and Taylor had gotten down with his part time job for the day. So he decided to go to the town square. The young man road around on his bike. As he did he looked at different places that where set up and the performers. A lot of them he had seen before so he did not stop to watch them. Besides most of them already had a huge crowds around them. And that was prime targets for pickpockets. After riding around for a little while Taylor started to get hungry and stopped his bike when he got to hot dog stand, he paid for a hot-dog and some water. He then sat down on a bench and started slowly eating. Enjoying the sounds and things around him. But then it happened, a scream hit the air. Taylor winced and looked around to see what was happening. It seemed there was a pickpocket in the crowed. A woman was screaming her money had been taken along with a few others. Taylor sighed and just went back to eating. if no one was in real danger there was no need to really do anything. Besides using his powers in a crowed like this would not be a good idea. But then something happened he could not ignore. It seemed someone had found the pickpocket and started a fight. Taylor stood up and ran over where a crowed had gathered to watch the fight. It only seemed one person had the guts to take the pickpocket on. But then the unthinkable happened, the pickpocket pulled a gun and shot the other man. The other man then fell over in pain and the pickpocket shot a few more rounds off to make people back off. But when he tried to make a run for it but the pickpocket seemed to trip on nothing and fell over. And this seemed to repeat its self when ever he tried to get up. Taylor was useing his winds powers to trip the man up till someone could arive to arrest him. Though he also made sure to knock the gun out of the man's hand. As he did this though wind blew around his body as if it was a really windy day. If anyone where to notice they would be able to guess he was the one tripping up the pickpocket.

Tony had come out of his office, the large Avengers building for a bit to get a taste of the New York air. It was because he had been cooped up all day inside for nearly several days now trying to work something out with his company and another one that had offered some aid. He was however considering dropping the 'help' since he saw no practical use for it. In fact it reminded him of The H. A. M. M. E. R. Team which had attempted to steal his armory and not to mention his best friend Rhodes. He wasn't about to go down that road again and loose another friend, yes he had learned that the hard way and nearly being blown to bits by machines that were rip offs of his Iron Man uniform. Of course he did not come outside alone at all he had his what looked like a suitcase at his side. But not a normal one you would see a buisness man or a working man would use. This suitcase housed his Iron Man suit, as it was covered in red and gold like a puzzle piece that was put into it. He had also realized something out of this suit case, his Ironman suit could never be brought anywhere easily unless it was transported in a plan or a large truck since there were so many parts to it. This way it could have collapsed easily and it only took him nearly two seconds to get out and in. It was just finding the right time to change into it was the problem. However he felt the hairs stiffen on the back of his neck as he heard someone scream. He had noticed that large crowds had formed on Times Square, in fact ones that were larger than normal for an average day. He also pushed back some of his hair into place as he felt the wind as it was picking up. He had noticed it a bit earlier, but this was more like the speed of the wind had advanced almost like a hurricane was approaching. "Sir there seems to be trouble nearby I think it'd be best if you helped out a young man there." Jarvis spoke up through the suit as he agreed. "I couldn't agree more Jarvis. Give me two seconds...maybe three but I'll be there." He said. In a way he wished he was like Captain America with his armor, aways there and ready to throw his disc at any opponent. Of course, Tony wasn't like Steve, he realized that, but there were some disadvantages to having some armor. He raced quickly back into his building as he began to put on his suit, the armor began to move in a bit of an unusual pace a it began to circle around Tony and place the correct parts on his body. His hands soon formed, along with his chest, and then his legs. And to complete it, Tony put down his mask as his chest of the Magnetic reactor Arch glowed brightly and his eyes did the same. " He began to head to where Taylor was seeing the large crowd as it started to disappeare from left and right as people were fleeing. He also heard several people gasp after realizing who was their to rescue them in time.

Taylor had no idea who long he would be able to keep this up, as people ran something broke his concentration. the winds died down and Taylor looked up. To his shock he saw Ironman, one of the greatest heros in the city. As Taylor looked at Ironman the theif got back up grapped for his gun and aimed at Taylor, " You son of a bitch!" He growled as he shot at Taylor. Taylor jumped and ran as he was getting shot at. More people screamed and ran. Taylor then dove behind some shallow cover curling up into a ball. The theif swore some more as he shot more round to where Taylor was now hiding before turning and shooting at Ironman. He did not care if it was one of the best heros he was not going to go down without a fight.

"Oh you picked a bad idea right there pointing that gun at me." Tony said as he had his voice partially masked by a more robotic one. Still everyone knew it was him. Iron man or not, he was an average citizen in New York like everyone else. Just that he was a rich and wealthy man. And a popular one too. As he flew through the air he prepared to lunge head on at the man with his fists open wide to try and grab onto him. He knew that he would just have to let the bullets hit his armor, he had done it in the past, but it was too fast to attempt to activate a shield of any sort. Besides he had survived gun shots before....So he could take his chances...

The theif started to back up as Ironman came down on him, but the theif was to stubborn to back down. When Tony came down he was able to get the gun away from the man. As he did that though he knocked him over. The theif then stood back up and started to make a run for it. By this time Taylor uncurled himself and sat up to see what was going on. He saw that Ironman had taken the gun from the man but now he was running away. Taylor then called on the wind once more and this time sent a very strong gust at the man sending him flying off his feet, he flew a few feet before hitting his head on something knocking him out cold. After he did that fear started to set in more then before. The young boy then ran to his bike got on it and started to beddle away. this was the first time he had used his powers in front of tons of people and one if them was a super hero, now he just wanted to get the heck out of there.

"Well that was interesting." Jarvis commented as if reading Tony's thoughts. "You're turning into a telepath at this point." Tony teased the computer as he remained hovered in the air trying to recall what had happened. But he realized that had to stop at the moment as he watched the kid as he began to take off down the path again with his bike.
"Heay kid wait up!" He called out towards Taylor seeing that he was taking off. He fired up his flight a bit faster than normal as he tried to keep up with him. But he wondered if the fact that he was in his Ironman suit was intimidating the boy. He didn't blame him, it did to many other people sometimes. "Can we talk for a few seconds? I'm not going to hurt you, I promise on that." He assured her. And it was almost as if he had forgotten about the crook, and possibly did. His memory was a bit wary these days.... He was left there out cold to either he woke up or one of the officers from the poice force caught him and put him behind bars.

Taylor looked up shocked that Ironman called out to him and wanted to talk. the young boy felt uneasy about this but knew he would not be able to out run the super hero. So feeling he had no other choice the young man slowed down till he came to a stop and lowered one foot to hold him and his bike up. Though he had to wonder what Ironman wanted, never in his wildest dreams did he ever thing a hero would pay him much mind powers or not. Taylor then looked down off to the side unable to bring himself to look at Ironman. his body shook with being nervous and scared. he had no idea what was going to happen now..

"Okay so maybe this form is a bit intimidating for you. I don't blame you feeling that way." Tony said as he lifted his mask to show his own face towards Taylor as he came over to him but stayed up in the air as he levitated. "What you did back there, it's clear you're not human. In fact you're one of those mutants. What I was wondering was, would you be interested in joining or at least considering being a part of the Avengers?" He asked. Tony was aware that he may have been a bit young for the Avengers, but there were other young teenagers amongst the Avengers as well. So maybe he would fit in with the younger squad than the bigger one. It was only if he said 'yes' of course.

As Tony spoke, Taylor made himself look up at the hero. Yeah he was a little scary in that suit but Taylor knew he was good guy and it showed when Tony let his face be seen. This felt so unreal for the young boy. One of the heros he looked up to was hovering before him. Though what Tony asked caught him off gard. Taylor's jaw dropped as he looked at Tony in disbalfe. No, no way had Ironman just asked if he wanted to join the Avengers. One of the best super hero teams in the world. For a few minutes Taylor said nothing as he was to stunned to say anything. "M-me? You want me to join the Avengers?" Taylor said in a soft shocked tone.

"Of course, you were certainly a brave one out there. I think you'd do well with the younger member of the Avengers." Tony said telling the truth and what he believed every step of the way. They certainly did have a growing amount of teenagers on the Avengers, if any more were soon to be recruited they'd probably have to find a name for the seperate team. Although Tony didn't have any children-let alone a wife just yet he was fine on watching the kids if his friends needed it. It was odd in many ways that the younger ones tended to call him an 'uncle' once or twice. But one thing he couldn't help in doing was smiling back at Taylor, his face lit up with disbelief. He could understand why though, not to many people got an invitation first hand to join the Avengers.

Again Taylor was speechless, this was happening so fast. Here he was getting a chance of a life life time but all he could do was stare with his mouth wide open, all his life he was told by his parents he was nothing and just as normal as anyone. But now here was Ironman telling him he had been brave and was wanting him to join up with him. He wanted to say yes but he was also scared of what would happen. What would his parents do? But if he said no he may not get another chance like this. "I....I.... Yes, I would like to." Taylor said softy as a weak smile came to his face. He could not let this pass him by. Though telling this to his parents scared him more then anything.

"It's incredible isn't it? You're going to do well I'm certain of that." Tony said as he finally landed on the ground after managing a few more minutes up in the air as he waited for Taylor's response. "Well you can come by to the Avenger's mansion if you want and I can show you around. Unless you have other plans first. But I'll tell Jarvis to get to work on your Avengers Identicard." Tony added knowing that he should have stoped right there. It may have been a bit much for the young man to take in at once. He had remembered the same reaction that Spider Man had given him when Peter had join the team. The shock and surprise, coming from a young and new hero.

Taylor then started to have second thoughts about this now... There was no way his parents would allow this.. But he had already said yes... Taylor wanted to kick himself now, but once he said he wanted to he felt he could not take it back in fear of Tony getting angry. As Tony spoke Taylor nodded his head and then shook his head when he asked if he had other plans for the day. "N-no sir..I-Idon't have any plans.." Taylor said. In truth he wanted to go inside the building... And meet the other Avengers. Not vary many people got a chance like this after all.

Tony however wasn't mad at all at Taylor, but he did notice how nervous the boy was as he looked at him for a bit. Maybe it was just stage fright? Certainly it was a big leap for anyone to get such an invitation as he thought about it. "Well then I can lead the way for you, I'll stay pretty close so you don't get lost." Tony assured him. Though the Avengers buiding was pretty obvious to find, just like the Future Foundation building, it had a large sign on it that announced the Avengers lived there. And it was their permanet home.

Taylor nodded as he fully dismounted his bike, he then started to walk it as he followed after Ironman. Though this was really happening Taylor could not help but feel as if he where dreaming. That soon he would wake up and find that he was still in bed and that this day had never taken place. But this really was happening, he was here as was the great Ironman. When they came to the building Taylor looked up at it. How many times as he ridden his bike past this building?? Never really stopping once in fear of one of the Avengers would spot him? Now that he was looking at it, the building was really huge and impassive. And now he was going to go inside. As they went inside Taylor said nothing and set his bike just outside the door unsure if he would be able to breing it with him. he then just followed behind Tony not saying a word.
