Okay then, everybody," Ironman said as he observed the destroyed street and numerous bodies lying scattered around. He grimaced within his helmet at the gruesome sight.

"Which of you caused all this destruction and death?" He pointed his palms at the red-haired young man with bat wings and the bloody-looking angels.

Jake simply pointed at the three of them with no shame in his voice. "It was them, sir. They did it."

Tony was taken aback by the bluntness and almost chuckled out loud. He still had to confirm, though. "Prove it," he said.

Jake just shrugged. "Hey, assholes," he called out to the three angels who were wary of the new metal man who had interrupted their battle. None of them wanted to admit it, but they were intimidated.

"What do you want now, Devil? Do you want to call a temporary truce and deal with this interloper together?" One of them answered Jake.

Tony, meanwhile, was confused when he heard them call the young man a devil. Was he a real devil with those wings?

And he was the good guy? Did the entire world have it wrong the whole time, and angels were bad? His mind was racing with curiosity!

"What do you guys think of humans?" Jake asked them.

"Huh! Haven't we already been over this, you moron? They are pathetic lower life forms that need to be eradicated so our glorious race can take over this realm," the angel said without remorse.

"There's my proof," Jake said to the cool armored man.

"That's some pretty solid proof," Ironman replied before he stopped aiming his repulsor at the redhead and turned to aim both palms at the bloody angels. "Alright, you three, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. Make your move."

"Our move will be your death!" One of the flightless angels yelled before all three charged at Ironman on foot. He responded by firing a repulsor blast from each palm, nailing two of them in their faces and sending them flying back!

The third, however, was far faster than Tony was expecting, already within striking distance. He was ready to block the flaming sword with his arms when a shield made of solid ice materialized right in front of him and blocked the sword!

Ironman turned and saw that the supposed devil was next to him and had conjured the shield out of thin air. "Nice block, kid," he said, and Jake just gave him a grin.

"We gotta finish these three quickly because their leader already escaped and is going to kill Prince Thor!" Jake explained.

Tony had no idea who this prince was, but he agreed that he couldn't let another one of these winged killers stay on the loose any longer.

The two angels that had been blasted painfully got back up with their faces sporting deep burns. They screamed in rage as they rejoined the third and attacked their two enemies with renewed fury.

Jake decided to abandon the sword gauntlet combo as he formed ice gauntlets in both his hands.

When the angel's blade came swinging towards him, he closed his hand around the incoming sword and caught it!

His other fist reared back as he pumped as much magic as he safely could through his muscles before delivering the mother of all punches right into the angel's gut!

The angel was rocketed off by the blow and crashed into a nearby wall like a missile, smashing through a solid foot of concrete before its form went limp.

The other two angels decided to attack Ironman together. He fired his repulsor blasts at them again, but they were ready for it this time and promptly dodged the beams.

Tony cursed as their supernatural speed once again allowed them to close in on him rapidly. He saw how the devil had bested his opponent and decided he might as well copy it.

Two angel blades came at him from both sides, and he reached his hands out and also caught both blades much to their shock!

"Jarvis, focus all power to the front repulsor," Tony yelled in his suit as his chest glowed brightly. An instant later, a massive blast was released from his chest that engulfed both of his opponents!

When the blast cleared, both of the angels could be seen on the ground over a dozen feet away with severe burn injuries. Whether they had survived or not, he wasn't sure.

"…"

"That was super cool," Jake said as he approached the armored guy. "So, is there like a person in there, or are you totally a robot?" He asked curiously.

"That was super cool," Jake said as he approached the armored guy. "So, is there, like, a person in there, or are you totally a robot?" He asked curiously.

The robotic faceplate just turned and stared at him. "So, are you really a devil, or were those wings just for show?" Ironman retorted back.

"Half devil," Jake said. "Mom was human, dad's a devil. He's a POS, though." Jake explained.

Ironman nodded before the faceplate on his helmet opened, revealing him inside the suit.

"That's badass," Jake said. He wanted his own awesome mecha suit...

"Thanks," Tony said. "And I know all about dads being pieces of shit." Tony's father spent most of his childhood drinking and ignoring him.

He also spent thousands of hours searching for the body of Captain America that Tony figured was shark food long ago.

Jake turned and looked towards the direction the last angel fled to.

"We better find that last angel before he causes any more damage." He was already afraid that it had killed more people in the few minutes it took Jake and Ironman to subdue the four other angels.

Tony nodded before his faceplate closed back down. He was about to take off into the air before Jarvis spoke up in his suit. "Sir, I should warn you that catching those two angel swords has damaged your palm repulsors.

I would advise not doing that again…" Jarvis said dryly. Tony was surprised his titanium gold alloy was actually damaged by some swords. He'd have to retrieve those blades later to analyze what they were made of.

Tony thanked Jarvis for that information before he took off into the sky and followed the redhead in the direction the angel went.
