Field trip
"Welcome," one of Mr Starks assistants, Claudia, greeted the class; "To the Stark empire!"
The class went silent as they all watched her curiously.
"My name is Claudia Jones, but you'll refer to me as ms Claudia. You need to wear the lanyards I'll be handing to you in a minute at all times, without them, you'll be as good as trapped, as you won't be able to go through any doors. Besides that, it is very important that they are visible at all times" she explained, holding up a batch of lanyards, the string being blue with STARK written over and over.
"You get personal ones, and if you decide to switch... Well, don't," she advised with a small smile.
"I'll be handing the cards out now, so if I could please see a... Eugene Thompson?"
Flash beamed as he went up and proudly put it around his neck.
"Sarah Fink," Claudia continued.
"Hey, what does the level one mean? Is one the highest?" Flash asked curiously, studying his card.
"One is lowest," Peter mumbled, making the whole class turn to him.
"I mean, it's basics maths, y-you know? Like, one two three?" he tried explaining it off.
"Peter's right, it's the lowest one, primarily for guests or low levelled employees," Claudia explained, handing Sarah her lanyard.
"How did you know Pen-Peters name, ms Jones?" Flash asked, sounding much too polite.
"He's an intern here," Claudia lied confidently, sending Peter a small wink which he returned with a smile
"Oliver Mandon," Claudia continued. The list went on until she said Peter's name.
"Peter Parker," she said out loud. Peter neared her and got handed his access card as they'd planned - this way no one would know he already had it.
Without a second thought, Peter stuck it into the pocket of his jacket, not remembering Claudia's previous words.
"The lanyard needs to be visible, Penis," Flash reminded him, sticking his tongue out like a child. Peter didn't bother arguing, and instead pulled it out and hung it around his neck.
"Hey, yours look old while ours look entirely new," Michelle commented curiously.
"Ha! Friends with Tony Stark my ass, he even went out of his way to make sure you got an old worn down lanyard," Flash laughed.
"Mr Stark doesn't really make lanyards for high school students, Flash," Peter reminded him.
"Let's begin the tour!" Claudia said out loudly, handing the lass student their lanyards.
"Right this way. You need to scan your passes - like this." She scanned her own lanyard.
"Welcome back, miss Claudia Jones. Access level; 5."
Flash pushed his way first into the line and proudly scanned his card.
"Welcome, Eugene Thompson, access level; 1," FRIDAY said as Flash looked impressed.
"What you just heard was FRIDAY, Mr Starks AI. This is her way of informing you you're pass has been registered and accepted," Claudia explained.
"Cool," Ned whispered as he scanned his.
"Ned Leeds. Welcome to Stark Tower."
Peter was next and thoughtlessly scanned his access card.
"Welcome back, Mr Parker. Access level; 8."
"It's Peter, FRIDAY," Peter reminded the AI.
"I am sorry, Mr Parker, but Mr Stark orders cannot be overridden," FRIDAY replied, moving on to next student.
"I swear he's just getting her to call me that to bother me," he informed Ned, who sent him a sorry smile.
"How come Peter has higher access than you? And how many levels are there?" a student, Sarah, asked as she passed.
"Well, I'm a secretary, while Peter works with Mr Stark himself. In order for them to be together, Peter has to have access to all the places here," Claudia explained, ignoring the latter question. She knew very well that informing the students that Peter was one of the only people with the highest level of access might not be a good idea.
"Let's move on!" Claudia said loudly, making sure every student had gotten through the first door so they knew the drill.
"Pete, Mr Stark wants you in lab 3," she informed quietly.
"Like, now?" Peter questioned.
"Unless you'd rather stay here, of course. I'm sure he'll-""No, no, it's fine, it's probably urgent," Peter interrupted, quickly passing through a level 6 access door.
"PETERS SNEAKING OFF!" Flash yelled loudly, gesturing widely towards Peter, who didn't even bother looking back.
"Actually, I asked Mr Parker to go in there," Claudia informed; "If we could go on with the tour.."

"It's not gonna work," Tony stated, his arms crossed above his chest.
"There's no way it doesn't work," Peter replied confidently, observing how the robot pointed a gun towards cap's shield as it hung strapped to the wall.
"Not even vibranium can resist that without a dent," Tony informed surely.
"It can when its covered in petetanium," Peter replied.
"Kid, chill, it's a web. A spider's butt can make that," Stark pointed out.
"Not as well as me, though," Peter added.
"10 bucks it won't work," Tony tried.
"I don't have 10 bucks."
"Okay, 2 bucks," Tony corrected. Peter looked at him.
"You really overestimate where I'm standing financially."
"Shot will be fired in 3..."
"It's not gonna work..."
"2..."
"I'm telling you, Mr Stark."
"1," the robot ended, shooting off the gun that hit the shield before shooting back, hitting the robot which started smoking as it leaned back.
"PEPPER, PETER BROKE MY ROBOT!" Tony yelled loudly, making Peter roll his eyes dramatically.
"Tell me, kid, why aren't you in school?" Tony instead asked, finding a seat on his office chair.
"Tell me, how did you know I was here?" Peter shot back.
"I'll tell you if you tell me."
"Deal," Peter agreed.
"FRIDAY notified me," Tony admitted.
"Field trip."
"You're skipping school because of a field trip?" Tony asked disappointedly.
"No no, I'm at the field trip. It's here," he explained.
"Wait, you're the high school class that was going here today?" Tony asked.
"I'm in it, yeah," Peter admitted.
"This is so great, I get to meet your friends, you get to show off," Tony decided, standing up.
"Yeah... My friends," Peter mumbled; "But what do you mean show off? They can't know that I'm... You know."
"I meant to show off with me," Tony explained with a smirk, heading towards the door.
"Mr Stark! Where are you going?" Peter yelled after him.
"Field trip!"
