A/N: Ok maybe not soon

...

~~~Four and a Half Minutes Earlier~~~

Tony was once again up late in his lab. He finished his invention days ago, but now he had to work on his presentation for it. PowerPoint had been his best friend when it came to things like this. He was just about to finish up his final slide, when he heard footsteps above him. Tony stood still for a second, wondering as to who it could be. He shrugged and said, "It's probably just Peter."

He was soon to learn that it wasn't Peter.

Tony went back to typing up his slide, but he heard footsteps again, except there were... more? Tony hesitated for a second. He then spoke up.

"F.R.I.D.A.Y., get me the footage of the living room upstairs," he said while shutting off his laptop and closing the screen. His AI pulled up the footage of the cameras that were situated in the living room. Tony began to examine them. He noticed that something about them was off. The cameras showed that it was light outside. Tony wasn't an idiot, so he knew the cameras had been hacked.

"Who the hell did this?" Tony asked himself as he began to hack his own cameras to fix them. After about a good... two minutes, Tony had successfully gotten his cameras to work normally again. And what he saw was absolutely shocking.

Four people were sneaking around upstairs in the living room. They began to jog over to and down a hallway. Tony checked the cameras that were in the hallway. They were all messed up as well. After fixing them, he saw the same people (obviously) sneaking down the hall. He knew where they were going. The safe.

Tony decided to just watch them and see if they could get past his fingerprint scanner. He turned on the audio and listened in on the conversation.

One of the figures turned around and Tony was able to see his face. Well, kind of. The burglar had an all white mask with two black dots for eyes and a thin smile. He was facing someone off camera.

"I got it," the masked figure said. He quickly rushed away and off camera. Tony could hear the assailant right above him in the kitchen.

"Yeah, you aren't doing that," Tony said aloud to himself. He quickly and quietly grabbed his watch that had a nanotech repulsor inside and fastened it to his right wrist. He normally wore his watch on his left wrist, but since he's right handed, he'd need to have more control for fighting. He quietly opened the first set of doors and began to head upstairs and attack the burglars. As he crept, he heard a clang of metal. He assumed it was a pot of water being heated up. He heard the feet scuffle away again. This was his chance! Tony rushed to the top of the stairs and opened the lab doors.

He heard more movement shuffling towards him. Tony turned on the light for the kitchen right next to him and saw a person standing a few feet in front of him. The person had a black hoodie and black pants on. His fingerless gloves were also black, but were made of leather. Around his waist was a white mask with a smiley face on it and a black and purplish sword. Tony was about to yell at the young man when all of a sudden...

Wham!

The man punched Tony in the head. So hard that he fell to the ground, very disoriented. He heard the smiley mask dude's muffled yelling and the shuffling of feet. Tony closed his eyes and passed out on the kitchen floor.

~~~Very Early The Next Morning~~~

"Is he okay?"

"Yeah, he'll be fine, kid."

"Hey, Steve, look. He's waking up."

Tony slowly opened his eyes and saw himself surrounded by a few of his fellow teammates. Some of the faces included were Peter, Steve, Natasha, Bucky, and Wanda. It was still slightly dark outside, but the sun was rising against the New York skyline. Tony began to try and sit up, but Natasha gently shoved him back down onto the couch.
