Sorry this sequel took a while to get out! I'm still in college and on my last trip home I forgot to pick up the Iron Man 2 DVD but I get out of school soon! So here the prologue to give a little tastes of what's to come! BTW IRON MAN 3 WAS FLIPPING AWESOME! The entire time thought I was thinking how to put Irene in it LOL.

/Back story INFO/

It's been around 6 months since Tony Stark announce to the world he was Iron Man. Since then he was out saving the world. The Stark had change from his life of the party to a now more serious but still really fun, man. There are only two people who are his entire world. Pepper Potts, the love of his life. Tony would be totally lost without her. Then there was his niece, Irene Stark. Ever since his older brother was murders those years ago, Tony promised to raise Irene the best he could and he did. Irene was close in turning 17. But since the day Tony had the mini arc reactor placed in him to save his life from the shards at threaten his life, he was slowly poisoning himself. He spends most of his time trying to find a cure. Keeping this info from Irene and Pepper, Tony spends as much time saving the world and being a family man.

Irene on the other hand was busy with her life. She gave up her dance career. Since her injuries from the battle with Mr. Stane (to cover it up from the press she said it was from a dance injury that she fell off the stage) she lost a lot time of practice and when she went back after she was healed, it wasn't the same. Dance was more of a hobby and nothing more. She now focused on her school work because now she wanted to study in engineering like her uncle. Unlike her uncle who major in electrical engineering, she wanted to major in mechanical engineering. She enjoyed designing and building. Spending time with her uncle changed her from the broken little girl she once was to the confident young women she becoming. She was turning 17 soon and she still didn't have a boyfriend. Ever since she was tricked by Conrad or whatever his name was, Irene pulled back from the dating scene. Besides as her uncle would out it, she had better things to do then date boys, she should focus on deciding what college she wanted to go to. So she spend most of her days visiting colleges. Any college was happy to take her since she was a Stark. Her uncle wanted her to go to MIT she wasn't sure if she wanted to leave California. So she was looking at Cal Tech but things could change. In the meantime, she was completely unaware of her uncle's situation.

This story begins the night of the Stark Expo opening… Here we go!

/Start/

As the car pulled up, the paparazzi smarmed from behind the gates. Happy opens the door and out came Irene Stark and her dog Samson. She walked passing everyone, doing a smile and a wave. She was dressed in classy/casual clothes (if there was ever a combo) and her dog had a cute dog bow tie (because bow ties are cool). Irene had no time for interviews, she had to get to the main stage to announce her uncles arrival…
