The Chronicles Of Elijah - Chapter 39

After failing to stabilise Extremis and to continue his scheme to take over the united state and have his revenge on Stark , Aldrich Killian decided to look for investments to fund his further research on Extremis.

He decided to book an appointment with Haven Industries, the leading company in the medicine field.

His request of meeting was approved but not with the CEO Linda Müller but with a senior executive in the company called Eliana Rastowski.

He was now waiting in the waiting room in Haven Park.

After a while a secretary came up to him and said :” You can go in now Mr.Killian . Miss Rastowski is waiting for you.”

Killian nodded and followed the secretary .

Inside the office was a young beautiful blonde woman . She wore a friendly smile on her face , looking ver professional. No one in his right mind could guess that this woman is ruthless.

Eliana stood up and held her hand toward Killian saying :” Welcome , Nice to meet you Mr.Killian.”

Killian shook her hand and said :” Nice to meet you too Miss Rastowski.”

Eliana motioned for Killian to sit down and said :” So , what can i do for you today , Mr.Killian.”

Killian began his sales-pitch about Extremis using 3D holograms and explained the wonders that Extremis could bring . He then proposed for Haven to invest in his A.I.M and to extend an invitation for Elijah Müller to join his government funded research agency.

While Eliana looked like she was listening, she was really just thinking :’ how long can he last in an interrogation session with me.’

When He finished his speech, Eliana began laughing like a maniac .

Killian was scared of by her attitude change from the friendly polite woman to the maniac.

Eliana:” Dude you got some balls. You come to us with an idea you stole after stopping yourself from committing suicide.”

Killian knew something was very wrong :” Miss I don’t know what you are talking about .”

Eliana just laughed and tapped her desk , a view-screen popped up mid air and showed a video of Killian sneaking to Maya Hansen’s room and copying her research and formula.

Aldrich Killian wanted to attack her but he knew if he did , all the mandarin charade will be uncovered and he will be hunted down by the Müller family forces.

Eliana just laughed and gave him a leeway :”Go go , you are really dreaming. It seems injecting yourself with Extremis has affected your brain.”

Aldrich Killian got out fuming and kept screaming at Eliana :” you gonna regret this.”

Eliana just laughed while she thought :’ the boss didn’t say anything about provoking . I hope he gives me a reason to play with him.’

Eliana sat back down and returned to monitoring Aldrich Killian using her drones. Eliana was delighted when she saw Aldrich issuing an order to his subordinates in anger not really thinking about the consequences.

At night, Eliana got out and went to the parking lot. She was tracked by someone in dark clothes.

Eliana stood at the door of her car and said to the man following her without looking :”Ah . One of Killian’s dogs . I guess now i could now play with your boss like i wanted .”

Before the man following her could know what happened, Eliana stood in front him and slapped him with an obedience disk on the neck.

The man tried using Extremis to attack but that was his downfall with the obedience disk activating and knocking him out. Eliana just smiled and from the shadows, came other masked women and took the body of the ȧssailant to imprison.

——————

Eliana just kept monitoring the situation with the mandarin attacks. Tony Stark mansion was destroyed and he was reported dead.

Pepper Potts was kidnapped and was subjected to Extremis.

Pepper Potts in fact was already rescued by Eliana’s forces and was cured and stabilised in Haven Hospital.

Stark escaped and reunited with Rhodes and after discovering Killian’s plan intending to attack President Ellis aboard Air force one. He plans for the Vice President to follow his orders in exchange of curing his daughter.

Rhodes saves the president with the help of Remotely controlled iron man suits.

On the decommissioned oil-tanker, the Norco, Stark fought with Killian trying to find Potts location from him . Killian was frustrated as Pepper Potts disappeared and his men guarding her were all killed.

Their fight was interrupted by an armoured woman flying in and slapping Killian sending him crashing toward a steel wall.

The woman was obviously Eliana . She watched enough , now it’s her time to play.

Stark just looked at the woman that beat him up in Gulmira in bewilderment.

Eliana began pounding Killian and throwing him around like doll while she laughed in glee. Killian found himself in disadvantage even with the Extremis enhancement. Elijah’s spies were all enhanced by a perfect serum .

Killian tried to use his heat to melt Eliana’s armour but to no avail. It didn’t even leave a mark.

Killian :” What the fuċk is going on ? I melt it his armour.”

Killian said referring to him melting Iron man armour.

Eliana just laughed and said :” Oh kid, you have no idea what you’re dealing with.”

Eliana decided to stop playing and ran a hand through Killian , tearing his heart out from the back.

Eliana chuckled and said :” Ah that was fun”

She then looked at Tony and said :” get up and follow me.”

Tony said angrily :” why did you kill him ? I needed to know Potts location from him.”

Eliana just huffed and said :” Shut up and follow me or i will knock you out and take you.”

Tony shut up and followed . Eliana spoke in her comms and after few seconds, a jet appeared and they both got in.

-Haven Hospital-

Stark ran and took Potts hands and kissed her.

Eliana from the back said :” she is fine , she will be awake after a few hours.”

Tony :” what about the Extremis that she was injected with?”

Eliana :” It is already cured , she will retain a bit of regeneration and she will be healthier and a bit stronger than an average human .”

Tony nodded and said :” Is Elijah here ? Can i see him ?”

Eliana :” No you can’t, Mr Müller isn’t on earth right now. When he comes back you can schedule a meeting .”

Tony nodded in understanding while Eliana excused herself and left. She has one more loose end to deal with.

-Vice president Rodriguez home-

VP Rodriguez was anxious . He still has no news from Killian. He looked at the tv screen to see if any new developments were reported when a bullet ran through his head killing him . Eliana walked from the shadows and began searching his office . She then looked at his daughter’s picture and thought :’ I guess it won’t hurt if she was healed from her disability ‘
