It was early 2006 and just like Arden planned he was waking up this year. Let's say he was waking up to a very different marvel
Thanks to his influence Sheild got a lot more done and a lot less influenced by outside forces including Hydra and others. Making them the PowerHouse they claim to be a lot more.
Howard raised his son to be not only a practice martial artist but at genius at it as well. He practice over 18 martial arts to Black belt along with his mastery over coding computer science and many other fieldd.
Howard had worked his son to be the Pinnacle of what would be a superhero on his 25th birthday Tony was granted the super soldier serum Howard did regret it for a bit before Tony finally realized what he was being trained for.
He would later become a vigilante in early 2004 under the moniker of Red Wing
He didn't have much high tech it was just grappling hook and tools along with his super soldier serum but he was making a lot of progress.
And since he wasn't as egotistical jackoff, nobody knew who Red Wing was.
They also worked together on the Arc reactor trying to shrink it down as Arden said but it took everything they had and they could only get it to the size of a briefcase and that still didn't seem as portable as they wanted it.
But thanks to this they were getting a lot from the power industry.
They were able to make it about the size of a palm but that was only with a palladium bace and that seems ill-advised for what it was meant for.
They were working on synthesizing the elements that Howard named Tesium
Of course Peggy was still sleeping but Bucky on the other hand was sequentially unbrainwashed it took Howard 20 years but he had finally did it if somebody said the activation words you get very violent but he wouldn't be under their control Howard took that as a win.
Unlike in the original timeline Stick did not train Daredevil instead he gave that honor to Auggie training them in more than just fighting he had trained him in language skills to checking in ways that only Auggie knew enhancing him further Auggie planned on giving him the super soldier serum when he turned 20
[I'm a big fan of Matt so expect so insane boost to this blind man]
In recent years more mutants and Inhumans have been popping up Howard along with the new director of shield Nick Fury were too tirelessly to either hide them or recruit them so they wouldn't end up like the government and what Hydra would have done to those that were different.
Leaving your money to Howard Stark a genius in most fields would make you very rich in fact Arden was now worth more than 100 million dollars God bless Howard.
According to Intel Howard received there was rumors of a Red Death among Russian Intel and other places around the world such as China, Sekovia and Latveria
Unstoppable nightmare according to said rumors

Arden was soon woken up and his first plan a business was to prepare for the Hulk. Of course with shields enhanced powers make it easily cancel the program.
But just like how the world needed Tony to be iron Man which to be fair didn't end up happening the world needed the Hulk and his strength.
Like always Arden talked with his resident genius on the subject and with the help of Auggie who would rank on the top three of all hackers alive if it was public knowledge. They found the program.
It was just getting started but they were still searching for a scientist Howard however recommended Bruce Banner.
This Bruce said just graduated college when he was recruited for the super soldier program
Little did Ross know just how many super soldiers actually existed
With this in mind Howard began to work on a gamma containment device. And get it down to the size of one large Jeep powered by three suitcase sized Ark reactors of course to minimize its size to that extent Tony was called in.
"So why is this needed anyway"Tony said curiously
"You know typical stuff stopping a nuke from going off in Virginia" Arden said nonchalantly
This startled Tony but he didn't ask any more questions he knew the device would work after all he made it.
The particle accelerator meant to help create the Tesium was set to be finished in late 2007 so at least a year to wait for that.
Shield had finally found Captain America and he was set to wake up in 2012 like the original timeline along with his beloved Peggy.
After being thawed out Howard had Bucky talked to him about the situation and like the good soldier that he is he went back and to cryosleep without a moments of hesitation.
After setting up all of this including monitoring in New Mexico and sending a recruitment officer too the Sky before the rising tide could get to her.
Arden was originally planning just sleep again but he didn't practice powers for the 26 years he was sleeping so he decided to try to travel through time and the only way he knew how movement so he asked Howard for the world's best treadmill.
And he was granted one Howard gold at the infinity treadmill supposed to be able to handle any speed.
Of course it was only able to help Arden pass a year and a half before breaking.
Of course this is long enough for Tesium to be synthesized meaning a small Arc reactor could be built.
With the help of Howard and Friday the Hawk armor was built of course unlike the original The Arc reactor was covered so it wasn't vulnerable but thanks to the super soldier serum and the hawk armor Tony could beat cap in any fight.
With this Red Hawk set out becoming one of the most prolific superheroes in all of New York but of course he didn't just stay in New York went all around America and beyond.
With all the preparations in place Arden used the treadmill again it was now 2008
