(y/n) - your name

(y/f/n) - your full name

I yawn out tiredly as I snuggled into Natasha who let me lay on her so I could get to sleep but I wanted to stay up much longer with everyone. It almost felt like a too real dream that I never wanted to wake up from.

"(y/n), you should go to bed." Tony coos as he bends down in front of me, brushing my hair away from my face but I shake my head.

"I don't want to..." I whine out but Tony tsks, getting Thor to walk over to me. "Noooo..." I pout as Thor picks me up bridal style and Natasha laughs gently.

"You're exhausted lady (y/n)." I sigh out, snuggling into Thor and he chuckles lowly, kissing my head. Everyone was still going on about being worthy or not worthy. Before Thor could walk off towards my bedroom, a head-splitting screeching echoes around us and everyone groans painfully.

"Worthy... No, how could you be worthy? You're all killers." I quickly fly out from Thor's arms and land next to him, quickly pulling him back from the damaged legion suit housing Ultron's consciousness.

"Ultron..." I mumble out, hiding my hands behind me as they glowed.

"Stark." Steve warns.

"JARVIS." Tony tries to call out.

"I'm sorry, I was asleep. Or... I was a-dream?"

"Reboot, Legionnaire OS, we got a buggy suit."

"Tony, that won't work." I whisper to him and he purses his lips.

"There was a terrible noise... and I was tangled in... in... strings. I had to kill the other guy. He was a good guy."

"You killed JARVIS..." I mumble out and Ultron nods.

"Wouldn't have been my first call. But, down in the real world, we're faced with ugly choices."

"Who sent you?" Ultron rewinds a tape.

"'I see a suit of armour around the world'." Tony's voice rings out and I sigh out in annoyance, pinching the bridge of my nose.

"I told you not to mess with Ultron, Tony." I hiss out.

"In the flesh. Or, no, not yet. Not this... chrysalis. But I'm ready. I'm on a mission."

"Have to admit, the guy has good humour." Everyone glares at me and I roll my eyes. Everyone gets ready, getting out their weapons and I let my powers flow down to the floor in a white mist.

"What mission?" Natasha asks.

"Peace in our time." Ultron mimics Tony's voice and I quickly throw up a shield around everyone as the walls explode, several Iron Legion bots barging into the room. 

"Good job (y/n)!" Rhodey calls out as I grit my teeth, pushing against the blasts and missiles that explode against the walls of the forcefield.

"You guys get ready! I'm going to drop it!" everyone gets ready. "Go!" I quickly drop the shield and they start fighting against the horde of the damaged legion suits. I was so tired to fight against the machines, barely dodging their attacks when I stumble into something.

"Wait." I bristle at the voice and slowly look up to see Ultron was right behind me as he stopped one of his men to not attack me.

"Shit..." I jump back before he could grab me, backing away as he walked towards me.

"Who are you?" Ultron tilts his head, scanning me and I can see the gears turning in his head. "(y/f/n). I see no records of you anywhere yet here you are, existing right before me." Ultron turns his head and a holographic video starts playing of all the times I had used my powers. "You have extraordinary skills."

"And?"

"You interest me. You seem to come to exist from almost nothing just as I did but I sense a sort of kin from you." I frown at Ultron, wondering why he was saying all this. "People have been calling you an angel sent to earth, someone who saves lives, unlike the avengers that kill."

"(y/n)!" someone yells out for me and my attention was ripped away from Ultron.

"Yet I sense darkness in you." Ultron hisses lowly and I look at him.

Those words ring through my head and I stumble back. "I'm not..."

"You can't hide from it (y/n), it is a part of you." Ultron mocks me and I glare at him.

"I don't kill people." I growl out as my lightning streaks crackled across my skin, my powers washing over the legions as I lift them up in the air. "Unlike you." the robots all screech as I rip them apart, my arms fisting so they crumble into balls.

"That was dramatic!" Ultron says and I huff out as the balls of metal drop to the floor, Ultron going on with his speech. "How is humanity saved if it's not allowed to...evolve?" he picks up one of the dismembered Iron Legion bots. "With these? These puppets?" Ultron crushes the Iron Legion bot's head. "There's only one path to peace: The Avengers' extinction." I quickly sidestep as Thor throws his hammer at Ultron angrily and destroys its body.

I lean against the wall, still dressed in my green gown as everyone was in Tonys and Bruce's lab. I let this whole sequence of scenes play out as they were supposed to until Dr. Cho asked Tony why the programme was trying to kill us and he starts laughing.

"You think this is funny?" I hiss lowly and Tony nods, losing his mind as he laughs and I get off the wall.

"(y/n)." Bruce stands in my way as I narrow my eyes at Tony for his disgusting behaviour.

"No, you don't get to leave this unscathed Tony. You don't get to overrule all our opinions on this matter cause you think you're right." I seethe and I shove Bruce away easily.

"No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It is funny. It's a hoot that you don't get why we need this." I laugh dryly.

"Oh, Tony you should know by now. I know why you think we need this and when I tell you we don't, I mean it." I growl lowly and Tony glares at me.

"Yeah, and you have been spouting the same nonsense over and over again and what do you do, absolutely nothing!"

"Stark!" Natasha hisses out noticing the guilty look that flashes across my face.

"I have been interfering with the movies too much! Too many things have changed and too many things have gone off the rails since I got here!"

"That's nothing-"

"-do you know how much it kills me to not save the people I care about when I know they were supposed to die!? Do you know how broken I was when Thor's mother died in my arms when I tried to prevent that!? In my arms Tony! She died in my arms! She saved me from turning into a monster when I tried to save her!" I pant out and I freeze when I see Thor look at me sadly.

Tony looks over at Thor and back at me, a frown on his face. "She..." Thor mumbles out.

"Thor, I'm so sorry-" he takes a step back away from me as I tried to reach him and he quickly flies off.

"(y/n)..." Natasha pulls me to her side and Tony looks at me.

"I'm so sorry-" I cut Tony off.

"-do you know how much it kills me that I can't help people from being in pain or broken no matter how much I try? Because no matter what I try to do, they will always be in pain and I can't stop it. Do you know how that feels Tony? To know everything that's going to happen but can't do anything about it?" he looks down at his shoes in guilt and I falter as fatigue hits me, Natasha quickly picking me up. She sets me down on a chair, kneeling in front of me as she held my hands.

"(y/n)..." she holds my face as I look at her sadly.

"I'm sorry Natasha. For everything you went through. I wish I could've stopped it." I give her a knowing look and she nods, leaning her forehead against mine.

"It's ok (y/n). You don't need to feel guilty for everything."

"You know I can't help it." I sigh out, looking over Natashas shoulder as Steve and Tony talk.

"How were you guys planning on beating that?

"Together." 

"We'll lose."

"Then we'll do that together, too." Steve says and I relish in the famous line.

"You have no idea how long I've waited for this moment." I whisper to Natasha and she chuckles as she stands up, letting me lay my head against her leg.

"I'm surprised you didn't mimic the Cap."

"I couldn't. These are one of the many precious moments in the films. The team coming together to actually act like a team." Everyone decides to head off to bed and I get up with them, shooing off Natasha and convincing her I was ok to walk by myself to bed.

"Kid..." I stop walking down the hallway, turning around to see Tony looking down at his shoes as his hands were stuffed in his pockets. "I'm sorry." He looks up at me and I walk over to him as I sigh out.

"I should be sorry. I snapped at you. You did nothing wrong."

"You know that's not fair." Tony sighs out and I shake my head.

"It is fair because it was uncalled for. You've been through so much shit alone and constantly suffering, it's not fair." he smiles at me gently. "I know you're scared Tony. We all are." I hug him and he wraps his arms around me as he laid his head on top of mine. "I know about the nightmares Tony..." He bristles up in my arms but melts. "I know you're terrified of not doing enough but you are doing way more than you should." I mumble out and Tony kisses the top of my head. "I can't lose you..."

"You won't lose me kid." his death flashes by my eyes and I squeeze Tony.
