The robots came rushing forward, climbing over the old abandoned church that they were at the heart of, and flying right through open archways to get to them. There were so many of them, but the Avengers were prepared to fight. And so was Andi.

She concentrated, focused on what she wanted to happen, and then tried to make that happen. Like Wanda, Andi had a few different abilities, but when combined, they could cause quite a bit of damage. One moment, she was using her wisps of purple energy to tear apart a row of robots that came her way, and the next, she bent down to press her hands to the ground, and vines shot out, thick ones, to wrap around the robots and twist till they eventually broke.

There was more she could do with the ground. Things she had been forced to do back when she was with HYDRA. That was the only way she knew that it was possible in the first place, but she had never tried it willingly. If she did that now, whatever robot that was on the ground could be swallowed up in a second.

Before she got the chance to try, she was alerted by the sound of a laser. Andi turned toward the source of the sound, to see Thor, Tony and this so called Vision, aiming toward Ultron's primary body, shooting him down, burning away most of the metal that made up his body. And once they were done, and Ultron tried to get a word in, Hulk raced over and sent him flying out of the city with a single punch.

There were very few of Ultron's robots remaining now, and what was left flew, intending to leave the island.

"We can't let them leave. Not even one," Tony said.

Andi did her best, running forward, to pull them out of the sky by acting like a human magnet. She had to turn them into metal debris before they hit her though, or she would have been thrown back. But even metal debris wasn't such a great idea, because it came flying toward her. She dodged what she could but still got a few nasty cuts along her cheek and her arms.

She'd endured that to take down just two robots. There were still at least ten more getting off the island.

"I got it," Rhodey's voice came into the speaker and Andi could see him in a bulky, grey iron suit, shooting down whatever flew off, while Vision managed to get the rest.

And that was it. The robots were all gone.

"We gotta move out," Steve said, and Andi turned around to face him. "Even I can tell the air is getting thin."

Andi hadn't even noticed, but she continued listening.

"You guys all get to the boats. I'll sweep the place to make sure there aren't any of Ultron's robots left," Steve said.

"What about the core?" Clint asked, nodding to the thing they had been protecting till now.

"I'll protect it." Wanda spoke, standing next to the core. Andi's eyes shot toward her and she met her gaze right before Wanda spoke again, almost as if to reassure her. "It's my job."

Andi was reluctant to let her stay till everyone got off, but Pietro came to stand beside her. "I'll come get her before anything bad can happen," he told Andi for further reassurance, and so she nodded.

Everyone seemed pleased with the plan. Steve took off, and it seemed that Hulk and Thor had gone as well. Clint looked to Natasha. "Come on. Banner needs a lullaby," he said, and the two of them headed off as well.

Tony nodded, getting ready to fly off. "I've got to get under this thing and work on the metal core. Come on, kid, I'll drop you off at the edge." He held out his hand and Andi took it. Before she knew it, she was soaring through the air.

Before he could drop her off though, Andi spoke. "Tony, wait," she looked up. "You... you're going to try and break the metal core, right?"

Tony looked at her briefly and nodded. "Yeah. If there's enough power surging through it, it'll break apart, activate the vibranium, and the entire city will implode."

"How are you going to get that much power?" She asked, because clearly that was a lot of vibranium if it was enough to cause global extinction.

"Well my hope is that Thor and I, together, can generate enough," he said, nearing the edge of the city.

"But if it explodes, and you're near it when that happens, then—"

"Yeah, we might not walk away from it. But that's not my concern right now," he said.

"How do you even know if that'll be enough power? What if it doesn't work?"

Tony had reached the edge of the city now and he dropped Andi off before standing on the ground as well, in front of her. "It has to work."

Andi frowned. "That's not a guarantee," she argued. "I know you're going to say no, but I—"

"No."

Andi continued, regardless. "I can crack the metal core. Combined with whatever energy you push through it, I can crack it. I know I can."

Tony was in his suit so there was no way for her to read his expression, but she could almost picture his face, conflicted. He knew she was right. He knew there was a chance. But he also didn't want to have to make that call.

"This is what the Avengers do, right? Let me do it. Otherwise you're risking a whole lot more than just three lives." And she included herself, among Thor and Tony. She accepted that she may not walk away, but if it meant preventing global extinction, then it was worth it.

"You better be right about this, kid," Tony muttered, picking Andi up again and flying off the city. They went down below, to the center of the core. Andi could see the glowing vibranium, among a lot of other things that were rigged to make the whole thing blow.

"Hold on," Tony instructed, and she did so, clinging to his shoulders, while he opened up a hatch at the bottom. There was enough space for him to fly in, and they stood on the edge of the hatch, looking up at the pointed metal core.

"Alright, Thor, I need you in the church," Tony said into the earpiece. So Thor was going to send a wave of electricity through the other side of the core.

For now, Tony already began, shooting a beam of energy toward the metal core. Thrusters were on full. This was the maximum he could get. Andi was waiting till enough power surged for her to split the metal into pieces.

Unfortunately, waiting was not something she was entitled to because at that very moment, something changed. Andi felt a tug, deep inside her, an almost painful one that made her bend over, clutching at her chest. Her eyes went wide, and it felt like a string that was tethered to her had been cut off. Andi wished she didn't know what had happened, but she knew. Only one thought ran through her mind.

Pietro.
