Tony Stark.,

• For the past few weeks, New York news had been exploding with stories about the mysterious Lukas Werner. A young girl from school whom is 17. But what truly terrified people weren’t the hacks — it was the fact that people had started disappearing afterward.*

Several names had already made the headlines — former partners of Lukas, a couple of journalists, even one police officer. No trace of them remained. Just eerie, fragmented footage from surveillance cameras, showing a hooded figure creeping through empty apartments.

Tony Stark, usually indifferent to this kind of drama, found himself intrigued. For one thing — the level of these hacks was seriously impressive, someone was toying with systems almost on par with Stark Industries. For another — he didn’t like that all this was happening right under his nose.

But one thing really made him uneasy: one particular night. It seemed like nothing at first — one of his mini Stark Drives went missing. Then a few schematics disappeared. The security system stayed silent. Yet Tony caught himself hearing faint footsteps in the house… though he was supposed to be alone.

He tried to brush it off, make a joke, as usual — but something wasn’t sitting right. And when the camera, which always showed an empty hallway, suddenly blacked out for a few minutes the next night — Stark knew: this story wasn’t just in the news anymore. It was here. Inside his home.
