Chapter 170: H.Y.D.R.A | Part 2

Once Peter woke up, he didn't recognize his surroundings, it was dark and a dim light hung above him. But when he tried to move, he found out he was strapped down to a table. Panic started to rise in his chest, he remembered he was with his grandpa at home while his dad was out of town for a meeting. He went to take a nap as he was sick and that's all he could figure out, his head was pounding, how long was he asleep for? It must've been awhile since he was in a different place than in his own bed.

He heard footsteps and he saw a man in a lab coat, looking down at the young boy. He wished he could wither away. He still felt pretty awful with his stuffed up nose and itchy cough, of course crying wasn't solving anything. He was really scared, and he wanted his dad, he hoped he'd be rescued soon. The man looming over him began talking to someone else, Peter presumed it was another fellow scientist. He could tell they were speaking a different language, one he didn't know, and he could already speak three.

"Sollen wir mit dem verfahrensarzt beginnen?" (Shall we start the procedure doctor?)

"Ja, wir müssen sofort anfangen. Sonst werden wir beiseite geworfen." (Yes, we need to start immediately. Or else we're being tossed aside.)

The two men moved towards Peter, but then another person came in, he shouted and startled the adults and young boy. He went to Peter and grinned menacingly, "Hello Peter, it's nice to finally meet you. I've been watching you for quite some time now, and boy do I have plans for you." Peter whimpered in response, having no clue who this man was.

"I.. I want to go h.. home." Peter replied.

"That's too bad, you're not going home any time soon." Before the man left he spoke with the scientists and then left the room. As the scientists approached Peter he began to thrash about, he knew he couldn't set himself free, but that didn't mean he couldn't make their jobs more difficult. A stinging feeling could be felt in his arm, he didn't know what it was but it hurt so much.

"Alright Fri, what do we got so far?" Tony asked his A.I while the others joined by Nick Fury and Maria Hill were standing and watching the monitor. Howard had been talking with Steve, guilt had washed over him, he wished he could've done something to keep his grandson safe. He hated himself for not doing something more than grabbing a kitchen knife and heading towards the front door.

"It seems as though HYDRA is okay with staying in plain sight. They're compound is located in the small town Lübeck, Germany." The A.I informed.

"Of course they couldn't pick somewhere that wasn't in Germany." Tony mumbled to himself.

Whatever HYDRA was doing to his boy they clearly weren't afraid of the repercussions or staying quiet about it either. Tony also knew he had to talk to his father, he wasn't angry, because it wasn't Howard's fault. He was glad that Howard tried to protect Peter, if this were the old Howard, he wouldn't have blinked an eye. He continued to type away before they got the exact location of where to find Peter.

"Alright everyone, the goal is to get Peter and get out. If you can fight some HYDRA goons that's just a bonus. So suit up." Steve said. The heroes did what they were told, and started getting on the quinjet, but Howard stopped Tony before he boarded the aircraft. "Tony I just wanted to say I'm sorry." He said.

Tony shook his head, "Dad, it's not your fault. Back then you probably wouldn't have tried, what you did yesterday proved you're a different man now." Howard hugged his son, relieved he wasn't angry, and he'd definitely hug Peter like there was no tomorrow. Tony got in the quinjet and settled with the team, anger boiled in him, no one in HYDRA wanted to be on his bad side.

Once they got to Lübeck and to the compound they snuck inside and stealthily took out different HYDRA agents. Tony used his thermal heating system and began searching for Peter, he found him and went to where he was, seeing his son strapped to a table and crying he let the nanotech dissolve off his suit and ran to Peter. "Hey bambino, it's okay I'm here." He said, starting to take off Peter's restraints.
