"What do you want from me?" Hank asked. Hope too who was nearby came near dad as she thought John had ill motives. Scott who finally got out of the small showcase enlarged himself to the normal size.
"I don't want anything from you. But do you want the information that I have? But first let's sit down. I am not your enemy." John replied.
"Then why did you take down Darren?" Hope asked.
"Let's not kid ourselves. You three had already planned to take down Darren for a long time. I just made the whole process easier." John said. They were surprised that John knew they three were involved.
"Scott, you can show yourself. You can call your friends too to join." John said.
"How do you know about us?" Scott asked.
"I know a lot. I am not here to speak about your past. I am here to speak about your future." John said.
"Future? What do you mean?" Hank asked.
"Your wife is alive and is waiting for you to find her, Dr. Pym." John said.
"What? What did you say?" Hope and Hank almost shouted when they said that.
"You heard me right. Your mother got herself in the quantum realm on a mission. Like your dad who was the previous ant-man, she was the wasp. You can ask your dad more about it. But yes Dr. Pym, your wife is alive and is waiting for you."
"How do you know this?" Dr. Pym asked.
"It doesn't matter how I know this. All that matters is that you should start searching. Take over Pym technology. If you want, Umbrella will help you with finance and everything. The current condition of Pym Technologies doesn't look good. Umbrella will take care of it. Just bring your wife back." John said.

"Supposing I believe you, why do you want to help us?" Hank asked.
"Because we might need your help in the future." John said solemnly.
"Don't be so defensive. Do you really think I care about the Pym Particles? I don't. You can take away Scott and others and nobody would ever like both of you. I just want to be a good Samaritan for once." John continued.
"It has been years since my wife has been in the quantum realm. How will she be alive?" Hank asked as he had doubts.
"Because time flows differently in the quantum realm. I think you have already doubted that." John replied. Hope who had doubts now about her mother asked more from his father and Hank thus confessed everything and him not wanting her to take the mantle of wasp. John was listening to the whole story with a smile as he already knew this.
"I have heard there will be a protest soon against your Umbrella Corporation saying that your company has made an AI and it would be a threat to humanity." Scott said. Umbrella was liked by most people but like always there are two sides of a coin. Some people don't want to see Umbrella grow more powerful and thus this had started. In fact many people in politics had already started adding fuel to the protest which was going to happen.
"When people don't understand something, they will resist. When the solar cars came out, they accepted it as they understood it. But now suddenly there is an AI and the movie industry hasn't done justice to AI. Well of course there is a bad AI which is roaming but there are good ones too." John said.
"Bad AI? What do you mean?" Hank, who listened to the conversation, asked.

"Oh there is one bad AI on the loose. Courtesy of Hydra." John replied.
"Hydra? How will you kill this AI?" Hope asked.
"We have taken some measures. Once the rat is out of the mole, we will catch it and kill it. Don't worry about it, everything is in place." John replied.
"I hope so. Seems like I need to secure my research more. If an AI gets its hands on it, we will be in big trouble." Hank said "Do you want any help?"
"I thought you hated Stark. Don't worry, you focus on your wife." John said
"You know my hatred for Stark too? What more do you know?" Hank now asked with curiosity.
"I know you are arrogant Dr. Pym but asking help from someone isn't a crime. You should go visit your previous colleague from the Goliath Project. Maybe one person can help in your search for your wife." John said.
"I can do it myself." Hank insisted while Hope thought of it differently. If her mom is alive and somewhere else they need all the help they could get. Since John had said about his father's former colleague, she can go and try to convince this new person.
"You are really a good Samaritan? I have always believed that there are good people out there." Scott said.
"Maybe... Umbrella will send a job offer to you Scott. Now you can spend more time with your daughter." John said.

Summoner's Journey
[Before you read - the story is officially dead. The reasons behind it are posted in the last chapter.] In a magic world on the verge of an industrial revolution, Ari Ragnarsson must uncover the truth behind his parents' disappearance. They were part of an organization known as the Order, which protects mankind from various threats - both human and supernatural. Now, after Ari's brands finally manifest, he leaves the safety of his village and travels to the continent. Strength is all that matters in this world and he must learn how to control his powers. There, he meets a man from another world, who's being hunted for merely existing. Their fates become intertwined, but not in a way either of them would appreciate. Author's note (contains minor non-story related spoilers about the MC and setting) This is a progression fantasy with LITRPG elements sprinkled on top. The main character is not a spellsword, but a summoner/support mage hybrid. Since he wasn't ambushed by a random god, there's no cheat item/spell and he has to rely on his skills and wits to survive in a world full of monsters. The story tries to show the moment when the old starts to be replaced by the new, with a healthy dose of magic and a little steampunk in the background. Also, it revolves around a party dynamic akin to RPG sessions. No health/mana bars. Numbers are secondary and the LITRPG elements focus more on classes/spells/runes and their evolutions. Tables are sparse at the beginning, but from chapter 7 onwards they appear more often. Still, I won't be copy-pasting the whole character sheet dozens of times per chapter.
