Chapter Text
Two weeks before Christmas and Happy was more than ready for the break that the holidays would bring. It’s not that Happy isn’t happy in his job, it’s just the fact that the role has changed substantially from when he first became head of security for Stark Industries. Back in the day he was reading people, profiling, playing a larger game with those who would have their hands on Stark money or tech. Nowadays criminals and thieves steer clear of the tower unfortunately not only out of fear of the towers' head of security but more so the fact that earths mightiest hero’s call the tower home. His role now mainly involves chauffeuring for the famous Tony Stark, being Pepper's second in command and a general information point for all guests of the tower who are not important enough, or do not have an urgent question that needs to be handled by the couple. As Happy had been with Tony for many years now he knows the general day to day business (minus the Science mumbo) and can filter the menial problems as they come up. The security of the tower and it's residents is still his priority but realistically any of the inhabitants could do far more damage to those foolish enough to break-in including Ms Potts; Happy had witnessed first hand the odd person getting on her bad side and the outcome had not been pleasant for them.
“There appears to be a disturbance on the roof Mr Hogan.” Jarvis broke Happys’ 5pm lull in work.
A groan escaped Happy, he had just finished escorting out a tour of school children, over excited due to the holidays with potentially sticky fingers and now he has to deal with this disturbance. What type of idiotic criminal would try to break into the avengers tower? Yes it is technically dark outside but 5pm is hardly under the cover of night. How had they even gotten all the way up to the roof from the outside? However, a darker thought then occurred, the dreaded press and paparazzi are always looking for the next big exclusive piece of gossip they can uncover. It would be just perfect if a nosey reporter got injured trying to get into the tower from such a great height and it would be Happy who would have to deal with the aftermath.
“Show me the camera feed from the roof.” Happy sighed. Instantly an image of the two large industrial air ducts appear on the holographic screen in front of him, blue and red spandex rested at the bottom of the furthest one. “Take me to Tony!” Happy barked striding into the elevator.
