55 'Lieberium' Elemen

Justin Hammer, CEO of Hammer Industries worked alongside Senator Stern in attempt to damage the public's own view of Stark however it fail and his own public image is badly damaged. After witnessing Ivan Vanko being able to battle Ironman with his own weaponized armor and miniature arc reactor, Justin Hammer came to a decision to recruit Ivan Vanko in attempt to replicate Stark's technology,

Justin Hammer seeing this as an opportunity to help build his own Hammer Armors to compete against Tony's technology. Sitting in his room, Justin decide to make a call.

Smirking to himself in confidence, he said "Hey, I got a job for you! Have you watch Prison Break, I need you to do something similar" before laughing to himself.

Midtown High (Monday)

My investigation on the new crime boss has not brought any new leads as I pondered who is the new possible villain. Currently the news media is discussing about Ironman's fight with Whiplash with Senator Stern leading the charge in criticizing Tony Stark. Everyone including the students in Midtown High is discussing about the fight between Ironman and Whiplash.

Before class begin, some of the classmates is watching the news on Flash's smartphone as Senator Stern with full of passion said "It is just unbelievable but it proves that the genie is out of the bottle and this man has no idea what he's doing! He thinks of the Iron Man weapon as a toy. I was at a hearing where Mr Stark, in fact, was adamant that these suits can't exist anywhere else, don't exist anywhere else, never will exist anywhere else, at least for five to ten years, and here we are in Monaco realizing, these suits exist now!"

Senator Stern concluded "Tony Stark has the moral responsibility to turn over the Ironman technology to the United States Government".

Flash smugly look at his friends that gathered around him saying "See that, Ironman is useless without his armor. Spiderman will not be so lame like him, he just need one punch and he will floor the guy! Just like this 'Wham!' and "Pow!. Right Peter!".

"Er.... right! but Ironman armor and weapon looks cool!" Peter replied slightly flustered.

"What we need is raw power! Look at Tony, he is total a wimp without his armor just like Peter here! Ops... Sorry Peter, no offense man! Old habit" Flash said chuckling as he put his right arm on Peter's shoulder.

"Sure no problem" Peter replied feeling slightly uncomfortable.

As Peter escape Flash grasp, Peter approached me and Ned saying "What do you think about it, guys? I was surprised someone is able to replicate Tony's miniature arc reactor tech".

Before I could reply, Ned interrupted me by saying "So what? Look at that whip guy, he still lose to Ironman. It is a cheap knock off of Ironman's suit, no ...it is more like an exoskeleton..... Just one shot to the head and 'wham' he will be dead".

Pondering to himself, Ned determinedly replied "I believe Tony will be able to build something to beat all those weapons easily. He is a tech whiz, he will surely find a way!".

Peter sighing to himself before saying "I really hope so".

I sigh too as I hope that my existence in the Marvel Universe will not negatively effect, Tony's ability to successful overcome his current predicament.

Defenders Base

With all the members of the Defenders sitting at the round table, I inform them of my encounter with Hammerhead.

I said "I believe there is a new crime boss in town, so just keep an eye out. I have not been able to identify the person but Hammerhead called him 'The Boss'".

"Just give me 5 minute with Hammerhead and he will squeal like a pig" Daredevil growled.

Raising his hand up, Spiderman said "He can make him talk too" sending all the members chuckling softly.

Black Cat snorted her nose, saying "You? You got to be kidding! He won't give you anything pipsqueak".

"Hey, that is rude! I could intimidate people easily, right Nightwing?" Spiderman replied feeling irritated that Black Cat didn't show him any respect.

Ignoring Spiderman words, I said "I already did. Hammerhead have not ever meet the person. This person is very careful, he or she has been avoiding all communication devices and the only clue is that all contacts has been made with an untraceable drone. Oracle has been searching but has come up empty" as Spiderman said "Hey, you ignored me".

I continued "I will continue my investigation but just stay alert with your surroundings. We don't know what the player is capable off" as the members nodded their head.

Powerman asked "Could it be related to Kingpin?"

"No, that is not possible. He is in maximum lockup. Could be a new player" said Jewel confidently.

"Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak" stated Ironfist calmly.

"I have a friend who is a lawyer. He might be able to check in on Kingpin" Daredevil replied as he cross his arm.

"This is a former crime boss, your friend will be in danger" Coleen warned.

"Don't worry, he is able to take care of himself and I will be around to protect him" Daredevil snapped back.

"Hard to imagine Mister Grumpy pants having any friends" Spiderman muttered softly under his breath but loud enough for everyone to hear causing everyone to laugh slightly at Daredevil expense.

Feeling the tense atmosphere coming from Daredevil, Spiderman with great urgency say "Errr...Hey, I just remembered I need to head home, family emergency" before quickly running away.

Nightwing Base

The few school days is pretty much uneventful except for Felicia and I going on short dates after school at the nearby coffee shop. Other than that, the news medias is full of news regarding the government attempts to get Tony's armor suit.

I am currently finishing up the final touches to the prismatic accelerator, it is my own small scale particle accelerator in order to create a new element for my miniature arc reactor.

"Okay, the moment of truth is here. Oracle start up the prismatic accelerator" I said feeling excited.

"Initializing prismatic accelerator" Oracle replied as the stream of subatomic particles from the accelerator intensified and started humming.

"Approaching maximum power!" inform Oracle as the humming sound grow louder over time.

"Okay divert the beam to the target" I ordered as I waited anxiously

As the concentrated beam hit the triangle, it begins to glow bright blue in color

"Shut it down, Oracle" I said as I approach the element.

Placing the triangle into the miniature arc reactor core with a clip, I said "Run diagnostic, Oracle"

After a few second pause, Oracle replied "Congratulation, Harry! The reactor has accepted the new element, it seem to be running more stable and more powerful compare to our previous reactor".

Smiling to myself, I said "Good, run several more test. We will begin mass producing for all our equipment once everything checks out".

"What would you like to name your element as, Harry?" Oracle asked.

"Hmmm... how about Lieberium?" I replied as I was thinking of Stan Lee real name Stanley Martin Lieber

"Sure, it is your element. I was thinking you will be naming it Stanium" Oracle replied.

Chuckling to myself, I thought to myself that 'Stanleenium' would be a nice name too...

"Oracle, so how is Tony?" I asked.

After a few second, Oracle replied "He is organizing a birthday party for himself now and it seems to be going wilder by the minute".

Feeling worried I decide to check it out, I said "I will be heading out, Oracle!"

"Will you be needing your costume, Harry?" Oracle question me.
