Cyberdragon has posed:
It has been a very rough last week for John Coltan. And it all started when the Gotham Police went on Strike. He's not killed anyone, but he did take it upon himself to lend help to the city that needed it. Then the Lunatic JOKER took over the Police department, set the Arkham inmates free as police, and from there. For John he's been fighting Gangs and trying to help people in the city as best he can.

Thankfully he hasn't faced any issues he couldn't just weather. Most of his help has been attacking street gangs, scaring them, destroying their weapons. Rendering them useless.

Several days ago he took a seriously bad hit. A chevy truck rammed into him knocking him into an abandoned gas station which caused it to erupt into a fireball in the air. The Explosion he survived no issue but the impact cracked three of his ribs, and he has continued to return to Gotham to help people there.

Last night trying to help Batman, and the deputized Arkham inmates from killing Batman, Cyber brought in Metallo one of Superman's enemyes with the Kryptonite heart and dropped him off in a secure area, He did leave a message for Stark about it and had JArvis put everything sensitive on lock down and rushed back out. But when he returned John absolutely just collapsed on the penthouser floor as right now Cyber is beside him trying to keep him asleep, and from thrashing around after bandaging his ribs.

The BioMechanical dragon can't do anything to harm john, not even inject him with a sedative so he has had to rely on JARVIS for help. In particular a sedative to keep John asleep until TONY got back.

But for right now John is laying on the ground face up with his shirt off bandages around his chest

As for the Cyberdragon, reports sho he haas broken bokes but there are no confirmed reports of Fatalities what so ever. But The Suit, Cyber lays beside his host like a protective guardian....

Iron Man has posed:
Tony's back, been back for a little while. It's the fact that JARVIS mentioned that someone was in //his// secure area. And that it was one of //Superman's// enemies. Great. Just... great. He's coming back up the stairs, taking each step two by two, and as he turns the corner, the pair come into view. He slows his step, his gaze flickering between the dragon and the boy.. back and forth. To his credit, he doesn't have a drink in his hand (anymore).

"Okay," No, Tony isn't the best of medicos, much less 'fathers'. "What happened, and is the kid okay?" Kid. Alright. "I got a visit from SHIELD. You," and he's talking to the dragon directly, "You need to keep him out of Gotham. Place isn't right for him."

Cyberdragon has posed:
As Cyber looks to Tony he says, //~Hey John's almost as stubborn about this as I am, he wants to help people, which is better than the alternitive. Thankfully he is not going to be active for any time soon. I think he will need at least three days of rest and recoup. I'll do my Best on that. Even if I have to tie him to the bed myself after this.~// Cyber has some very life like reactions such as a deep sigh. The level of detail in his replication of biological processes shoudl be impressive as he allows JARVIS to Explain the injuries.

"Mr. Coltan will survive though he has three cracked ribs on the left side. numerious bruises and of course Micro fractions to various other parts of his skeletal structure. I have Detected something very odd about the Alien MAterial inside of Mr. Coltan's body sir. It appears to be interlacing with those micro fractures to form a metal bridge for healing. No signs of any enhanced healing times."

Cyber turns his head as he listens to JARVIS, the Dragon actually looks extremely surpised... as if it's the first he's ever heard of something like this. Then again, he is not in direct contact the material inside john anymore when they merge. And it was 500 years ago. So Cyber may not know what happens inside the body of the host after joining.

Iron Man has posed:
Tony crosses the room now to head to the bar in order to pour himself one of those drinks that he didn't have in his hand when he'd arrived upstairs. "Stubborn, I don't care. Mules are stubborn. I don't care if you head out there as sort of a recon thing, but not him. He's just a kid with a dream."

Once he's got his drink, Tony stoppers up the bottle and takes up the glass immediately, savoring that first swallow. At JARVIS' report, he nods, but his words are for the Dragon next. "I've got a medfloor. Something like this goes there where I've got life support and a team of doctors. Yeah, sure.. I get it, but they've seen strange before. Mutants. Hell, I've played with virusses that even you probably don't know about. It'll be easier to quarantine him if need be."

Tony nods in John's direction first and then to the couch just a little bit away. "Take him over there."

Cyberdragon has posed:
Cyber won't argue with the results as he will just allow those doctors to come up and get hold of John as he says. //~I'm not arguing with you Mr. Stark believe me. Yes and how many superheroes had to learn this the hardway. Being a hero hurts, as much as I want to protect him, I can't force him to do anything.~// Cyber says and then sighs relaxing as he will help move john onto the medical bed to get him transported down to the medical labratory.

The Dragon doesn't argue or speak anymore as he just starts to look at maps of various areas of the world. Middle east, Africa, europe. AS he is not looking at the from the air, more from ground level and then checking maps of areas with human settlements.

Iron Man has posed:
"Yeah, I know." Pepper says exactly the same thing to him, over and over and over. How much she worries he'll get hurt, how much she worries that he won't come back.. that he's doing too much and not enough at home... "I'll talk to him later. The docs will probably give him a good looking over. The fact that your stuff is interlacing with his own like an adamantium lace is kind of cool," and Tony is looking directly at the dragon as he speaks, "and I'd love to find out more on that, too. Tensile strength.. the difference between you and what he's got in there. Is it just a temporary overlay until he's healed, ceding to bone, or is it going to prevent organic healing." Questions that are statements; he sounds like he's building many, many thesis statements.

He does love his research, Tony does.

"JARVIS, give me Ireland." In the next second, there's a holographic vision of a stately court and courtyard set as if one is walking, rather from the air. "Just move your hand one way or another and you can manipulate the feed. We have historical data too that can overlay, so if you want it a hundred years ago, a thousand, JARVIS can have it extrapolate the image."

Cyberdragon has posed:
As Cyber says //~I don't know something about John is different. Than any other host I have ever had. I can sense his emotional state his general health and bio rythems. The Best way I can discribe it is it is cleaner. He's the first host I have had that has been so eager to learn about me, know whenre I been done. Others have been curious but him, My other hosts were not as trusting of me. Considering my previous one was a warrior for the Spanish Inquisition.~//

AS he looks over it and smiles enjoying the estimates and the changes back to the older imagines and says. //~The Interview with Ms. Romonav got me to thinking about some of the enemies I faced thousands of years ago. A couple were very hard to dispose of. I was doing some checking on human settlements and seeing if some might be in danger of discovery.~// he says watching the information. And he does adjust the field looking around. //~You should be proud... you have come far.~//

Iron Man has posed:
Sure enough, where science and archaeology say are sites, JARVIS has the settlements built up by scientific examinations of the time, the culture, and what is known.. "He's a good kid and he got caught up in a bad deal." Tony watches the dragon and his expression sets into something serious. "Wasn't fair to take him. He's making the best of a hand dealt to him. I don't want to see him hurt, and neither does Pepper."

The drink is finished and the glass sets on the bar again, and Tony goes to join the dragon where the construct stands. "You have to understand one thing, though. Now, it's a game of hand washing hand. In order to keep you safe and your ID, you have to do the same for others. No shouting out names, faces, and organizations. You may not know it, but if others find out what you know.. like, say, that Agent Romanoff works for SHIELD, you could put her in serious danger. And that's not your call. Just like they have no right outing you to others. Privacy applies everywhere."

Cyberdragon has posed:
As Cyber says //~I know I corrected John on that. He didn't realize what he had said until he had come out and is more cautious now. Think of me as a sort of advisement when we are joined. When we are merged he's dominate, I only take over when he relaxes enough to allow me, or he's unconsious. At that point my duty is to just evac him from the area.~// As he looks at the area //~I wonder if that hidden treasure is still in the area opf that old castle.~//

Cyber's time frame seems to be more or less beyond five hundred years about and has an area in Spain brought up, northen around some foot hills. //~JArvis has there been any sort of large cashe of gold and silver found in a cave in this region in the last say six hundred years?~// Of course JArvis points out that there has been no treasure found. //~One of my hosts was in serious trouble and fearing to loose everything to the crown burried a good portion of his wealth in these hills.~//

Iron Man has posed:
"Then he and I will have a chat about that later," Tony continues. "I got a nice visit from SHIELD about it. They were a little concerned about your lack of ability to aim, but they were more upset about him yelling. Your lack of aim, I don't care. You're learning, adapting and evolving. Him, though.. yeah. We'll talk."

Now, though, Tony's side by side with the dragon as the construct manipulates the time and place, homing in on one area or another.

"There have been no successful archaological surveys of the area. Lord de le Crois had a team from Oxford in 1889, but nothing of any note was discovered, much less removed." The soft, clipped English accented voice sounds both a million miles away and just in the room.

"Thank you, Jarvis." It's automatic, Tony's response to his AA. Now, however, he's back to speaking with Dragon, and he continues, "Sounds like a fun dig. Anything more than gold and silver? If not, we can get one of the museums to send out a team. I'll underwrite the survey and when they come back, we'll look good."

Cyberdragon has posed:
As the talk of aiming Cyber bursts out laughing. //~Lack of Aim? I have impeccible aim. My Dear Mr. Stark, if John had wanted to hit them I assure you. We would not have missed. And they would be dead. At the lowest setting it might be like a fire cracker going of a plasma burst. Or I could devistate the better part of Central park unleashing three bursts of considerible power. All John wanted to do was scare them off. Not kill them.~//

Cyber seems utterly amused by that. //~You will be happy to know that I can't generate my plasma stream or bursts without being murged to John. And should he loose consiousness I loose my strength and that ability as well.~// he says, //~Lack of aim my tail, I meet that agent again I'll show him a thing or two about accuracy.~//

Iron Man has posed:
It's something decidedly unique, to hear a dragon laugh; moreso, a technological construct of a dragon from whoknowswhat culture. Brows rise and Tony chuckles in the face of it all. "Yeah, I get it. Apparently the SHIELD agent wanted those gangbangers dead. Give the real police department a little less work. But I didn't say that. I'm glad you didn't. You're not the judge, jury AND executioner. Sometimes those agents get a little full of themselves, you know?"

The billionaire shrugs lightly and takes one, two steps back from the holographic display, committing the area to memory. JARVIS will remember it anyway, but, when boots are on the ground? "Let's not showboat, okay? Let him think you can't shoot worth a damn. Means they'll underestimate your abilities, which can be used to your benefit. Never, //ever// show your hand." Tony heads back to the bar to get more of his scotch, and he waves a hand, "I've got some work to do.. I'll be down to check on John later, and see what the docs have to say about it all." What he'd mentioned before. "Pepper's gone for the rest of the weekend." Most likely. "So I'll just be ordering in." Beat. "And figure out what to do with one of Superman's enemies." Nope.. not happy about that.
