3rd Person Point of view
Alex decided to send Rogue to Midtown Highschool next year, At first he thought that by doing so he would render his future knowledge obsolete but then he remembered the fuck up x-men movie verse's timeline and so he just said "fuck that" and besides the kid's been growing on him in this couple days, she was like a daughter he never had although it is kinda weird sometimes for him because his Age maybe 182 but his appearance would still pass as 25
The second reason is that Rogue does not need Xavier's help anymore with Athena hacking Hank, Shield and Weapon X's research about the X-gene, Alex is able to improve the nanites functionality now rogue can fully confrol her absortion power without being overloaded with memories, as they would be place in the Watch internal storage .
The watch is also wired to Olympus so Athena can track Rogue if so ever be the brotherhood would kidnap her.
******
On the technological side, Alex and Athena is making quite an Improvement with one of the Project: Fallout; thanks to the creation of the worker drones, Project: Fallout is a sum of projects dedicated for various events that may happen in the future, one of this Project is the Batje-Cough!, I mean This Aircraft is a vibranium coated Aircraft that is powered by a modified Arc reactor, it also has an array of vibranium based weaponry, The cockpit is coated with Proto-adamantium for added security
The Aircraft is purposely built for combat, it can launch and land anywhere, and is connected to Olympus so Alex can call it wherever he was, It can reach speeds upto Mach 2.6, There is still a problem with the creation of Anti-gravity device for space flight but hopefully he can snag one from the Chitauris

Alex POV
Tomorrow is the opening day of my Cafe and I almost forgot about it, sigh...why do I have to build a company again?
Flashback
I was sitting on my couch as I watch adventure time when Athena appeared beside me
"Father, can I ask you a question?" Athena ask with look of curiosity on her face
"Yes what is it?" I replied as I pause the show
"Why does a lot of human entertainment are about heroes?"
I stared at Athena's eyes who was full of curiosity then look at the ceiling and lean on the couch as I said "sigh...you see how do I explain this without being a total BS, hmm...heroes are let just say symbols of hope for humankind and a reminder that humans has the capability to do good, that they have the responsibility of spreading the good to the rest of humankind"

"Huh? But why would they do that? it's not like they are being told to do so? Why? For example the spider-man, he has the most versatile ability in the whole marvel universe and if he so use it for money, he would we be swimming in a pool full of cash and why does he try and be a hero anyway when in all his life being a hero had mess up his whole life from Uncle ben, Aunt May, Gwen and a lot more, it's stupid for him to continue to do so" Athena argued
"Athena, Spider-man like I said has the capability to do good and also at the same time has the capability to do evil, but he chose to do good because that is the moral code he grew up with and with his superpower he felt that with those power if he use it, he can do MORE good to others, like what Uncle Ben use to say to him "With Great power comes Great responsibility"
"Hmm..How about you Father, you have Great power so it means you have Great responsibility also? and so? would you use it for good or for evil?
-------
"I'm sorry Alex but I can't leave, this is my responsibility"
--------
"Ale..x..I...Lov..e..you..to...o"
--------
"Well Father, thanks for answering my question, I'm going to go now " Athena bid her farewell as I sat there muttering spider man's code "With Great Power comes Great Responsibility.. huh?"
"god damn it...Diana"
Flashback ends
"Oh right! The company is to finance my Hero activity because my guilt would kill me if I don't be a spandex wearing hero" I said with sarcasm
I really just want to laze around and spend the rest of my day serving people some coffee
'Geez...I only wanted to open a coffee shop but now with the paperwork for the company almost done and now entering the building phase, I would be very busy and won't be able to attend to my coffee shop.
Sigh....how can Stark manage being a Hero and having a company at the same time, although he did gave his company to Pepper Pots on Iron Man 2- wait! That's it! I need to find my own Pepper Pots!' Alex then came out of his musing and directly go to the living room where Athena and Rogue were currently browsing the Internet
As I entered the room Athena look at me and Said "You know Father, you don't really need to go all the way here just to talk to me about your plan right? You do know that I can hear you musing cause we're telepathically connected right?"

I forgot that I can Telepathically communicate with Athena "Sigh...I'm sorry maybe my old age is affecting me?" Athena smiled at that and Rogue look up from his Computer and said "Old? What do you mean Old? You don't look old to me, infact you look 25"
"Oh right we didn't really talk about it huh?" I thought I already told her but it seems I forgot again "actually I am old, My current age now is 182 and I'll be 183 on December 25th" I explained to her
"What!? That's impossible! No one can live that long!" Said Rogue
"Well you see Rogue, long story short some asshole did something to me and now my Life span increase" I said to Rogue with a matter of fact tone
"That really don't explain a lot but well I don't really care as long you cook again something delicious then I'm good" said Rogue with a shameless grin
"Continue eating like that and the next thing you know, you'll a hundred pounds heavier-" A Flip Flop appeared out of nowhere and smack me right in the face "what the hell Rogue! Where did that come from!?" I said to a glaring flush face Rogue
"Please let this be a lesson father that you shouldn't talk to girls about their weight" said Athena who was now holding a holographic camera "blackmail material"
"Are you saying that I'm fat!" Rogue shouted as she holds another Flip Flop in her hands I raise my guard to my face and said " okay! Okay! I'm sorry! I won't do it again!" Rogue then let go of the Flip Flops and cross her arms "you should be, if I ever hear you talk about inappropriate things about me again and I'll rain down on you a bunch of Flip Flops"
"Sigh...anyway about why I'm here, Athena I need you to find me my own Pepper Pots!" I said to Athena
"Already done father! Knowing your laziness when it comes to corporate management, I knew this day would come so I prepare before hand here take a look" Athena said as she swipe the holographic projection of the file to me; Emma Frost was written on the file
"Hmm...Ahh!! Frost the telepath! Beautiful, sexy, have a bunch of degree on business management, has a thing for expensive things and lastly wanted to get out of his Father's shadow, I could do with her but the problem here is Shaw that asshole and the rest of the hellfire club hmm...well when push comes to shove, I'll just eliminate him myself" I said then look at Athena "you got her contact number?"
"Yes Father" Athena replied "then would you be a dear and set me a meeting with her Please" I said
"Done" hearing Athena's reply I turned then said "Thanks Athena and Rogue sleep early okay?"
They both look at me and said "okay" in unison
I walk towards the elevator and headed underground ground
Entering the Basement, I said "Athena bring the suit please"
A mechanism opened as a cylinder; housing the suit, rose up
There it is the Batsui-Cough! I mean the ..fuck who am I kidding, it's a batsuit alright! similar to Arkham knight series, although there are a few alterations, first is the head gear with augmented reality lenses (with Athena's computing power it can predict bullet paths and display them on the screen) I designed it to be similar to the Arkham knight's helmet only with a much darker color and made with vibranium, the second is that the body armor, the design is similar to the batsuit v8.03 and is made of a specialized vibranium weave created by wakandans instead of the tri-weave batman use in the Arkham series, it was put together in a way for kinetic energy to be stored and release in one of my punches or kicks, the utility belts has batarangs, darts, explosives and more, the gauntlets are the same, with an additional blades similar to assassin's creed and are made of Admantium, a webshooter that shoots black webs (I mean come on you got to admit, those webshooters are pretty damn useful!) The boots (also the soles of its feet) are the same, also made with vibranium same as the cape and lastly two holsters in both legs for the the Guns
Overall the suit looks badass, a suit made with great defense, great attacking power and excellent mobility, vibranium really is a total BS material
The suit will be called Dark Knight Suit Mk. 1 and will be my standard suit, this is just the first of the many to come
"Now let's take you for a spin"
