❝Where else am I going to get a view like this? ❞

𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝐁𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐎𝐍 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐘 got a Morse code message from Natasha downstairs, Stark and Banner were experimenting on the synthetic body.
"This framework is not compatible", Stark told Banner who turned to him, "The genetic coding tower's at ninety-seven percent. You have got to upload that schematic in the next three minutes."

Banner turned back to the body, right in this Moment Steve, Anastasija, the twins and their younger sister turn up at the lab. Steve stepped inside, "I'm going to say this once."

"How about "nonce"?", Stark shot back at him. Steve looked at him with anger in his eyes, "Shut it down!"

"Nope, not going to happen", Tony told the Captain. "You don't know what you're doing", Steve argued with him. Banner looked at him, "And you do? She's not in your head?"

"I know you're angry", Wanda tried to calm him down as she stepped forward but Eva grabbed her by the hand making her stop.

"Oh, we're way past that. I could choke the life out of you and never change a shade", he told the girl who now looked terrified.

Steve spoke up again, "Banner, after everything that's happened-"

"That's nothing compared to what's coming!", Tony shouted from where he was standing.  Wanda shouted as well, "You don't know what's in there!"

"This isn't a game-"

"The creature-", Eva started to shout but suddenly Pietro used his speed to destroy the lab equipment.

He stopped and looked at the team, "No, no. Go on. You were saying?", he said.

Suddenly Barton shot a bullet below and caused the glass Pietro was standing on to smash and the sokovian fell through.

Wanda and Eva started screaming and stepped forward immediately, "Pietro!" Anastasija looked down to see Barton standing above Pietro asking, "What? You didn't see that coming?"

"I'm re-routing the upload", Tony explained to Banner but Steve tried to stop Stark. Stark used his Ironman arm to fend him off and Banner took a hold of Wanda while Eva let the purplish-red mist twirel around her fingers. 

Anastasija stood in the middle immediately pointing her gun at Stark, she didn't want to fight any of them but if she had to she would.

"Please Tony don't make me do this", she pleaded as she looked at her friend. He looked at her with an betrayed look, "Go ahead, piss me off", she could hear Banner whisper to Wanda.

But suddenly Steve jumped back over the railing and attacked Stark, they were both thrown back again.

At the same time Wanda freed herself from Banner. Just then Thor entered and pounded the cradle with his hammer, sending a powerful bolt of lightning that broughed the body to life.

Ana looked at him shocked, "WAIT!", she screamed but it was to late. They all looked in shock at the body who came out of the Box.

The creature looked around and then jumped directly at Thor, who threw him through the next window. The thing stopped in the air and looked out of the window, "I'm sorry, that was odd", he apologized to Thor as he returned to the team.

"Thank you", he continued, they all stood together as Steve asked the God, "Thor, you helped create this?"

Thor looked at them, "I've had a vision, "A whirlpool that sucks in all hope of life and at its center is that", he pointed to the gem inside Vision's head.

Bruce looked at Thor, "What, the gem?"

"It's the Mind Stone. It's one of the six Infinity Stones, the greatest power in the universe, unparalleled in its destructive capabilities." Steve looked at Thor and spoke up, "Then why would you bring it to-", but Thor interrupted him, "Because Stark is right."

Bruce sighed annoyed, "Oh, it's definitely the end of times"

"The Avengers cannot defeat Ultron."

"Not alone", the Stranger spoke up, "Why does your "Vision" sound like Jarvis?", Steve asked him curious.

Tony answered him quickly, "We reconfigured Jarvis' matrix to create something new."

"You think I'm a child of Ultron?" Steve watched him closely, "You're not?", He asked him sceptical narrowing his eyes.

Vision looked at them, "I'm not Ultron. I'm not Jarvis. I am, I am-", he tried to explain but Wanda interrupted him, "I looked in your head and saw annihilation."

Vision quickly looked at the witch and said, "Look again", "Yeah. Her seal of approval means jack to me", Clint spoke up from where he stood.

"Their powers, the horrors in our heads, Ultron himself, they all came from the Mind Stone, and they're nothing compared to what it can unleash. But with it on our side-", the God tried to explained to the others, but the Captain interrupted him.

"Is it? Are you? On our side?", he questioned looking at Vision. The stranger sighed, "I don't think it's that simple."

"Well it better get real simple real soon", Anastasija joined the conversation looking at the Stranger sceptical. "I am on the side of life. Ultron isn't, he will end it all", Vision told them.

"What's he waiting for?", Stark asked curious. "You", Vision answered quickly.

Banner looked at him, "Where?", he asked but Clint was quicker in answering, "Sokovia. He's got Nat there too."

Bruce looked from Clint to Vision, "If we're wrong about you, if you're the monster that Ultron made you to be-", he said to Vision.

But he interrupted him, "What will you do?", he looked at the Avengers, Ana raised an eyebrow at him and Vision then realized that they would destroy him.

He looked at the ground and then at the team, "I don't want to kill Ultron. He's unique, and he's in pain. But that pain will roll over the earth, so he must be destroyed. Every form he's built, every trace of his presence on the net, we have to act now. And not one of us can do it without the others."

He stopped for a moment before he continued, "Maybe I am a monster, I don't think I'd know if I were one", he told them honest.

"I'm not what you are, and not what you intended. So there may be no way to make you trust me. But we need to go." Vision held up Thor's hammer and handed it to him before he walked off.

Everyone stared in shock at him, "Did he just-?", Ana asked still not believing.

"Right", Thor said as he pated Stark's shoulder, "Well done", he continued as he looked at the others.

Steve was the first one to speak up, "Three minutes. Get what you need", he instructed them.

Barton and Anastasija immediately made their way to the armory and armed themselves with weapons.

After a while Barton stooped and sat down on the bench, he looked at a photo of Laura and the kids.

Ana loaded her gun before she hide it in her leg holster, the Russian patted his shoulder as she stood behind him.

"You're going to be fine, You will make it back", she assured him, Barton grabbed her hand that laid on his shoulder and quietly nodded.

They all got ready to leave, Stark loaded up FRIDAY into his Iron Man suit now that Jarvis is no longer available, "No way we all get through this. If even one tin soldier is left standing, we've lost. It's going to be blood on the floor."

Steve looked at him and said, "I got no plans tomorrow night", Tony looked at Steve, "I get first crack at the big guy. Iron Man's the one he's waiting for."

"That's true, he hates you the most", Vision agreed with Tony as he walked past them.

In the Quinjet Steve held a speech before they landed in Sokovia, "Ultron knows we're coming. Odds are we'll be riding into heavy fire, and that's what we signed up for. But the people of Sokovia, they didn't. So our priority is getting them out", Steve told the team and they all nodded.

"All they want is to live their lives in peace, and that's not going to happen today. But we can do our best to protect them. And we can get the job done, and find out what Ultron's been building", he paused for a moment.

"We find Romanoff, and we clear the field. Keep the fight between us", he continued.

"Ultron thinks we're monsters and we're what's wrong with the world." He looked at the Avangers, "This isn't just about beating him. It's about whether he's right."

After they landed Barton and Anastasija helpt Steve evacuat the City, Wanda and Eva used her mind powers on the people of Sokovia to get them to evacuate.

The people were still not outside the city when Ultron's army of robots suddenly attacked them.

They came from everywhere, Steve eyes widened and he looked at the civilians, "Go!", he shouted at them.

"Get off the bridge! Run!", Anastasija shouted as well while she helped some people to get on the other side of the bridge.

She shooted at the Robots while Barton shooted them with his Arrows and Steve fought them with his shiled. The Robots started shooting at the Civilians but Wanda made a shiled with her magic to protect them.

Anastasija looked at the young women for a short moment, maybe the siblings were not so bad after all.

The civilians run away but in that moment Wandas shield broke and she fell to the ground. Anastasija attacked the Robot who shooted at Wanda and shot a bullet through his upper body killing him.

He fell to the ground and Ana helpt Wanda up as Eva suddenly joined them seeming really out of breath. The young brunettr looked at the blond, "Thank you", she said in a thick accent.

"No problem."

Barton approprached them and wanted to say something but right in that moment the earth began to shake and Sokovia started to slowly fly into the air.

Ultron watched his making from afar, "Do you see? The beauty of it, the inevitability. You rise, only to fall. You, Avengers, you are my meteor, my swift and terrible sword and the earth will crack with the weight of your failure. Purge me from your computers, turn my own flesh against me. It means nothing. When the dust settles, the only thing living in this world will be metal", he said in a satisfied voice.

They all held onto cars or what ever was there to grabb onto because everything in the city was falling apart. The Iron League tried to attack Wanda, Eva, Ana and Clint again but the two Agents shooted them from the sky.

Suddenly Anastasija heard Stark's voice in her ear, "Cap, you got incoming", he informed Steve.

"Incoming already came in", the Cap answered in a quiet voice like he just was beaten up or something. "Stark, you worry about bringing the city back down safely", he instructed him.

"The rest of us have one job, tear this things apart! You hat hurt, hurt them back! You get killed, walk it off", he told the rest of the team.

Wanda looked at Anastasija, who raised an eyebrow and leaned her head to the side. After that she abruptly stood up and continued to shoot the Iron League's with Clint, while Wanda and Eva brought the Civilians to safety.

But they came one after the other and the three couldn't fight them anymore."GO, GO, GO!", Barton told the three women as he grabbed them and crashed with them through a window.

Anastasija immediately sat up against the wall breathing heavily, she could here Wanda quietly sniffing as Eva tried to calm her down.

"How could I let this happen?", she questioned herself in panic. "Hey, hey are you okay?", Barton aksed the young witch. "This is all my fault", she continued looking at the ground as Eva rubbed her eye, "hey, no you're not."

"Hey, look at me!", he told her loudly, making Wanda looked up, "It's your fault, it's everyone's fault!", he explained to her.

"Who cares, right ?", he asked as he looked at Anastasija for help, who immediately nodded and quickly made her way over to them.

"Are you up for this?", Anastasija asked her but Wanda didn't answer.
"Are you?!", Clint asked her again.
"Look, we just need to know cause this city is- is flying", he told her a little overwhelmed.

"Okay. Look, this city is flying, we're fighting an army of robots, and I have a bow and arrows. None of this makes scense", he told them as he looked at the two.

Ana nodded her head at her old friend with a little smile on her face. But the moment was interrupted by someone shooting at them, they duked and Anastasija grabbed Wanda's shoulder.

"Look, Clint and I are going to go back out there, cause this is our Job, okay?", Wanda and Eva slowly nodded at her with big eyes.

"And no offense, but Clint and I can't do our jobs if we have to babysit!", she told the girl who lookd at the ground again.

"It dosen't matter what you did or who you were, if you go out there, you fight! And you fight to kill them!", Clint explained to Eva and Wanda as he looked at them.

"Stay in here, you're good. Clint and I will sent your brother to come find you. But if you step out that door, you are an Avenger", Anastasija told the girl seriously as she loaded her gun again.

They looked at each other for a moment before Barton stood up, "Alright, good chat", he said as he walked to the door Anastasija right behind them. "Yeah, the city is flying", he said as he kicked the the door open.

So Anastasija and Clint fought their way through the Robots, at some point the door from a building flew open as Eva and Wanda stepped out.

They crashed on after the other robot to the ground and saved Anastasija from getting shot. Clint and Ana came out from behind the car their were hiding, "All right, we're all clear here", Clint informed the others.

"We are not clear! We're very not clear!", Steve shouted back. Anastasija looked at Clint and said, "All right, coming to you." Suddenly something rushed past them and grabbed Wanda befor it came back and grabbed Eva .

"KEEP UP, OLD MAN!"

Clint grabbed an arrow and immediatley aimed at Pietro. "Nobody would know, Nobody", he narrowed his eyes and looked at Ana who had a big smile on her face. "The last I saw him, an Ultron was sitting on him."

"Yeah, he'll be missed, that quick little bastard." Ana could hold back her laugher as she followed Clint who jogged in the direction were Steve was probably fighting. "I'll miss him already", Clint finished his self-Talk.

As they finally arrived by Steve there were hundreds of Robots, Anastasija immediately started shooting at them but her bullets got low.

She decided to save a few for later, so the women had to fight with her two electrical truncheon.

She hit on after the other robot with it, Steve fought his way over to her and saw that one Robot wanted to blast her.

"Romanoff!", he yelled before he threw his shield at her. She cought it and shielded herself from the blast.
"Thank's!", she shouted back at him, the women than hit the robot with the shield.

He stumbled backwards and Steve jumped in the air as Ana threw his shiled to him. He catched it and hit the Robot so hard that he was destroyed.

After a while no new Robots came, so Anastasija and Steve had time to discuss a plan. "The next wave's going to hit any minute. What have you got, Stark?", Steve questioned the genius.

"Well, nothing great. Maybe a way to blow up the city. That'll keep it from impacting the surface if you guys can get clear"

Steve sighed, "I asked for a solution, not an escape plan", he said. "Impact radius is getting bigger every second. We're going to have to make a choice", Tony replied to him.

Suddenly they could here Natasha's voice in their ears, "Cap, these people are going nowhere. If Stark finds a way to blow this rock-", but Steve interrupted the Russian.

"Not 'til everyone's safe", he replied stubborn.

"Everyone up here versus everyone down there? There's no math there", Ana said as she looked at Steve, "I'm not leaving this rock with one civilian on it", he said still looking straight forward.

"I didn't say we should leave", she told him still looking at his side profile, Steve turned and looked at her for a second.

"There's worse ways to go", she looked at the clouds and smiled sadly. "Where else am I going to get a view like this?"

Steve looked at her a little bit shocked that she considered to die here but he sighed. "Look, if, I'm not saying that we're going to, but if we're going to die I want to do something before", he told her while slowly approched the women.

Ana could feel his hot breath on her face as they looked into each other's eyes, Steve slowly strated to lean down and wanted to kiss her but right in that moment a voice interrupted them.

"Glad you like the view, Romanoff. It's about to get better", it was no other than Nick Fury who just then showed up with a Helicarrier.

Steve turned around and looked at the sky, "Nice, right? I pulled her out of mothballs with a couple of old friends. She's dusty, but she'll do", Fury explained to the a little proud.

"Fury, you son of a bitch", Steve breathed out as he looked at the Helicarrier.

"Oooh! You kiss your mother with that mouth?" Right in this moment Pietro stopped next to them.

"This is SHIELD?", he asked with a smile on his face. "This is what SHIELD's supposed to be", Steve told him also with a smile.

"This is not so bad", the sokovian said as he also watched the Helicarrier. "Let's load them up", Steve said as he looked at Ana with a light smile.

The team quickly helped the people onto the different Helicarrier lifeboats, "Alright, let's load them up! Here we go. Here we go, let's move. Let's go everyone!", Clint shouted at the people.

"Come one!", Ana shouted as well while she clapped her hands. After most of the people were on the Helicarriers Ana joined the rest of the team. "What's the drill?", she asked Tony a little out of breath. Tony pointed to the Vibranium core.

"This is the drill. If Ultron gets a hand on the core, we lose", he explained to her. Right in that moment Ultron showed up, "Is that the best you can do?", Thor shouted a him angryly. Ultron looked at him and summoned his army of robots to join him.

"This is the best I can do", he replied to the God. Steve just looked at Thor and shook his head. "You had to ask."

"This is exactly what I wanted, all of you against all of me. How can you possibly hope to stop me?", Ultron asked them bigheaded.

"Well, like the old man said", Tony spoke up as he looked at Steve. "Together."

And with that they began to fight against Ultron's attacking robots.

Ana shooted one after the other and hit some of them with her guns until Ultron's flew towards them and tried to reach the core.

So Vision, Tony and Thor fought him of together. After that Ultron slowly stood up, "You know, with the benefit of hindsight-", he started but suddenly Hulk knocked him far away and the robots slowly started to retreat.

"They'll try to leave the city", Thor stated as he watched them leave.

"We can't let them, not even one. Rhodey!", Tony shouted.

"I'm on it."

Steve looked at the team, "We got to move out. Even I can tell the air is getting thin. You guys get to the boats, I'll sweep for stragglers, be right behind you", he instructed them.

"What about the core?", Clint asked curious. "I'll protect it. It's my job", Wanda spoke up as she looked at Barton.

He nodded, "Nat, Ana, let's go", he said before he and the twins disappear.
