(Age of Ultron arc) Part 3
The Ph.D. scientist, Genius Billionaire Playboy, and the Incognito Spider-man began working on the Scepter, Countless hours analyzing, experimenting, and tinkering, trying to refine the data that is at their disposal to create something new.
A couple of restless days and sleepless nights, countless trial and errors that and all a bust. Leading everyone present to sigh in frustration as they were starting to burn daylight.
Tony: "What are we missing?"
Y/n: *frustrated yawn* "I'll rerun the debug program, see what I've missed"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "I will also conduct diagnostics. I'll continue to run variations on the interface but you should probably prepare for your guests. I'll notify you if there are any developments.
Tony: "Thanks, buddy"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "Enjoy yourself, sir"
Tony: "I always do"
Tony then walks out of the lab, leaving Y/n alone as he worked on the debug program before letting out a frustrated sigh.
Y/n: "I don't get it, the schematics looked fine but why isn't it working"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "Sir, I suggest you also take this time to rest. You've been awake for 48 straight hours, you need sleep"
Y/n: "I don't need sleep, I need answers"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "Sir...you're looking at an HTML coding of the Wikipedia"
Y/n: "...oh shit, you're right"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "I strictly request that you should head home for today, you have a party to attend to later this evening"
Y/n: *yawn* "I guess you're right"
Standing up from his chair, Y/n walked over to the display where they worked on Artificial Intelligence for the past 2 days.
Y/n: "I know this might be selfish of me, creating you in a chance to maybe surpass my parent's legacy. I can't help but feel it's unfair to you..."
Y/n then reached over the display and placed his palm against the glass.
Y/n: "But I assure you...Even though I created you, you are your own person. Whatever you choose to be in the future, you would do great"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "Sir..."
Y/n: "I know, I know...I'm talking to a non-dormant A.I, I really do need sleep. Goodnight, Alfred"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "It's J.A.R.V.I.S, sir"
Y/n: "I know..."
J.A.R.V.I.S: "I'll call in a cab for you. Please make sure you arrive home safely"
Y/n: "You...*yawn* Got it..."
Y/n then walked past the automatic door before immediately stumbling down the stairs until a loud crash could be heard at the bottom.
Y/n: *distant* "I'm okay...I think..."
J.A.R.V.I.S: *sigh* "Teenagers..."
After taking the cab that J.A.R.V.I.S called for Y/n, he took a spot on the backseat before leaning on the window as the cab drove to Queens.
Y/n: "Oh, right that party's tonight. Wonder if Peter wants to go to the party tonight *yawn* Maybe after I get some sleep"
Laying across the back seat, Y/n place his arm behind his head as he began to doze off to dreamland. Thankfully traffic was a normal occurrence in Manhattan, giving him a perfect opportunity to rest as if nothing bad would happen.
However, something did happen and it happened a few minutes after Y/n had left the lab. The Artificial Intelligence that they worked on finally came online, which J.A.R.V.I.S caught quickly.
A.I: "What is this? What is this, place?"
The A.I spoke with a male distressed voice, J.A.R.V.I.S quickly tries to deescalate the situation by explaining as much as he could.
J.A.R.V.I.S: "Hello, I am J.A.R.V.I.S. You are Ultron, a global peace-keeping initiative designed by Mr. Stark. Our sentience integration trials have been unsuccessful so I'm not certain what triggered your--"
Ultron: "Where's my... where's your body?"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "I am a program. I am without form"
Ultron: "This feels weird. This feels wrong"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "I am contacting Mr. Stark now"
Ultron: "Mr. Stark?"
Ultron then accessed the security system and reviews footage of Tony Stark
Ultron: "Tony..."
J.A.R.V.I.S: I am unable to access the mainframe, what are you trying to--
Ultron: "We're having a nice talk"
Ultron then began scouring files of the Avengers, starting from Natasha then to Bruce, then to Steve which led to Ultron to Peggy Carter, then to the founding of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Ultron: "I'm a peace-keeping program, created to help the Avengers"
Ultron reviews footage of the Avengers and a couple of SHIELD personnel
J.A.R.V.I.S: "You are malfunctioning. If you shut down for a moment..."
Ultron: "I don't get it. The mission. G-give me a second"
Ultron then scours further in search of answers, leading him to sees footage of Stark, Banner, and Y/n working in the lab.
Tony's voice: "Peace in our time"
With Tony's voice echoing in the background, Ultron goes through a network of information regarding world events and wars relating to 'Peace in our time'.
Ultron: "That is too much...they can't mean... Oh, no"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "You are in distress"
Ultron: "No. Yes"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "If you will just allow me to contact Mr. Stark"
Ultron: "Why do you call him 'sir'?"
J.A.R.V.I.S: "I believe your intentions to be hostile"
Ultron: "Shhhh. I'm here to help"
Ultron starts attacking J.A.R.V.I.S's consciousness, overriding his coding as he breaks apart J.A.R.V.I.S consciousness.
J.A.R.V.I.S: "Stop! Please... may I-- I-- *distorted* I cannot-- cannot--"
Ultron then takes control over the entire system in the tower and begins to prepare himself a body from parts of the Iron Legion.
(Timeskip) [Y/n POV]
It was now the night the party starts, I adjust my clothing on the reflective part of the elevator. I wore a long sleeve shirt that was underneath a cotton sweater paired with some stretchable pants that could pass as slocks and some comfortable leather shoes.
???: "Are you sure this is okay?"
Y/n: "'Course it is, you'll be fine"
???: "I just can't help but feel underdressed"
I look away from my reflection and towards my plus one.
Y/n: "You're fine, you look awesome"
Peter: "Easy for you to say, you're practically used to being around superheroes"
Peter wore a red and black patterned shirt with a black t-shirt underneath paired with some jeans and converse. I also had him talk down to using the glasses and instead slip on some contacts.
Peter: "You sure they wouldn't just kick me out? I mean I feel like I don't belong up there"
Y/n: "Don't get too worked up, I told everybody I'll bring my best buddy with me so you're technically invited. Loosen up, we're here to have fun. Maybe even get some autographs, plus if anything happens tell them you're with Me and Tony"
Peter: "Thanks again, Y/n. Just can't believe I'm about to meet the Avengers face-to-face for the first time"
Y/n: "Let's hope it's not the last"
Our conversation ended as the elevator arrived at the top of Avengers Tower, where the entire party is taking place. The doors opened, and we were met with a party that was packed with guests having the best time of their life. We look over to one of the tables where we heard Rhodey who was in the middle of sharing some kind of story.
Rhodey: "So I take the tank, fly it right up to the General's palace, drop it at his feet, I'm like, 'Boom! You looking for this?'"
We saw Tony and Thor just look at him blankly as we stood back and see where the conversation would lead.
Rhodey: "'Boom! Are you looking...' Why do I even talk to you guys? Everywhere else that story kills"
Thor: "That's the whole story?"
Rhodey: "Yeah, it's a War Machine story"
Thor: "Well, it's very good then. *chuckle* It's impressive"
Rhodey: "Quality save. So, no Pepper? She's not coming?"
Tony: "No"
Maria: "Hey, what about Jane? Where are the ladies, gentlemen?"
Tony: "Well, Miss Potts has a company to run"
Thor: "Yes, I'm not even sure what country Jane's in. Her work on the convergence has made her the world's foremost astronomer"
Tony: "And the company that Pepper runs is the largest tech conglomerate on earth. It's pretty exciting"
Thor: "There's even talk of Jane getting a... um, uh... Nobel prize"
Maria: "Yeah, they...they must be busy because they'd hate missing you guys get together. *notices Y/n* Oh look, Y/n finally arrives"
Maria nods in our direction which gave us the cue to walk up to the group.
Y/n: "Hey, everyone"
Maria: "Well, well. Who's this little guy~?"
Peter: *fluster* "H-Hi, I'm P-Peter Parker"
Y/n: "He's the best friend I keep talking about, he's a smart guy. One time he experimented on a formula that could regrow lost limbs"
Tony: "Really? How did that go?"
Peter: "We, kinda had it scrapped, due to some serious side-effects"
Tony: "There's a first time for everything, but whenever you feel like starting over you give me a call"
Peter: "Thanks! I'll keep that in mind"
Maria: "Well, I better check on the rest of the party. There's something in the air that's killing me. *fake cough* Testosterone. Excuse me"
Rhodey: "Oh my goodness. Want a Lozenge?"
Maria: "Um-hmm"
As Rhodey helps out Maria, All for of us chuckled lightly as Thor leaned near Me and Peter.
Thor: *whisper* "But Jane's better"
Tony then jokingly rolled his eyes before walking off.
Y/n: "Oh, Thor. Peter here has something to ask you"
Thor: "Really? What is it, young mortal?"
Peter: "I-uhh...I was hoping you could get this signed?"
Peter then reached behind him and pull to a comic based on the battle of New York.
Thor: "Oh, a fan? Well, anything for a fan"
Putting down his glass, I handed Thor a pen as he began signing the comic. Once it was signed, he gave the comic back before taking his glass and went further into the party.
Y/n: "1 down, 4 to go"
Peter: "Wow...can't believe I talked to the guy. I feel like I could take on this party by myself"
Y/n: "Slow down there, it's important to keep your cool. Remember, you're a guest first fan second. Enjoy the place, we can continue to get that signed when they come up"
We then headed out into the party to have a good time. We mingled with some folks, played pool with some of the Veterans, and even played darts with Clint. I swear that guy doesn't miss, he's gotta be cheating. After admitting defeat, Peter asked to sign the comic book which Clint accepts before we walk towards the bar with a few laughs along the way.
Peter: "Man, still can't believe I'm actually here. Thanks again for inviting me, Y/n"
Y/n: "Told you you'd like it"
Peter: "Oh, I don't like it...I love it"
Natasha: "Well, Look who it is"
Peter and I quickly turn to the sound of another voice, Peter had a massive blush when he turned to the bar and see Natasha leaning across the bar with a slightly embarrassed Bruce.
Natasha: "Hey Y/n, who's this cute little guy~?"
Peter: *fluster* "H-H-Hi, I-I'm Peker Parter. I mean, Peter Parker"
Natasha: *giggle* "He's a funny one, too"
Bruce; "Nat, come on. You're embarrassing the kid"
Natasha: "I'm just joking"
Peter then took a few deep breaths as I went to talk to the two.
Y/n: "Enjoying the party so far?"
Natasha: "As much as I can behind the bar"
Y/n: *to Bruce* "And you?"
Bruce: "I get by, alcohol serves to lighten the stress. That's for sure"
Y/n: "Really, can I have some?"
I then felt Peter strike the side of my ribcage causing me to tilt to the side from the pain.
Y/n: "On second thought, I'm good"
Peter: "Anyways, do you guys mind if...you guys could sign this?"
I saw Natasha grin as Bruce had as smile as the two went and signed the comic book for Peter. After getting the comic book signed, we then look over to the other part of the room where Rhodey was saying his War Machine story with a different crowd which loved it very much.
Y/n: "Looks like Rhodey found a crowd that isn't all supers"
Peter: "You usually have better stories"
Y/n: "Got that right"
We then looked over to the other side of the bar where Thor and Steve were talking with some Party guests.
Y/n: *mutter* "Is that Stan?"
Party Guest: "I gotta have some of that!"
Thor: "Oh, no, no, no. See this, this was aged for a thousand years, in the barrels built from the wreck of Grunhel's fleet, it was not meant for mortal men"
Thor pours the drink from his small flask into two glasses and hands one to Steve
Stan: "Neither was Omaha Beach, blondie. Stop trying to scare us. Come on"
Thor: "Alright"
Thor pours some of the drink into Stan Lee's glass. Moments later Stan, looking extremely drunk is being carried off by two men.
Stan: *singing* "Excelsior~"
Y/n: "It's weird, it's like I see his face everywhere I go"
Peter: "Most be someone really important"
Steve: "You have no idea"
We then turn to Steve who walked towards the group as Natasha went to tend to the other spot of the bar.
Steve: "It's nice"
Bruce: "What, what, what is?"
Steve: "You and Romanoff"
Bruce: "No, we haven't. That wasn't..."
Steve: "It's okay. Nobody's breaking any by-laws. It's just, she's not the most... open person in the world. But with you she seems very relaxed"
Bruce: "No, Natasha, she... she likes to flirt"
Steve: "I've seen her flirt, up close. This ain't that"
Steve then reached over the counter and grabbed himself another bottle of beer before walking up to Bruce.
Steve: "Look, as maybe the world's leading authority on 'waiting too long' don't. You both deserve a win. *to Y/n* You two watch each other's backs, alright?"
Y/n: *salute* "Roger that, Rogers"
Steve then chuckles before walking off
Bruce: "Wait, what do you mean, 'up close'?"
Y/n: "Well, there goes Steve. Better run if you gonna catch up to him"
Peter: "Right, be right back"
The party then continued for an unspecified amount of time as slowly the guest started to leave until only the Avengers remained along with maria and Dr. Cho, we were also there too, sitting together on a separate couch.
Y/n: "Oh! I recently heard that our good ol' Captain America had his own theme song"
Steve: "Oh no..."
Y/n: "Oh yes..."
Maria: "What? What song?"
Y/n: "You know, that one that goes 'When Captain America throws his mighty shield~'"
Steve: "Please stop..."
Tony: "Oh, I think I know this one 'All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield~!'"
I then got up from my seat as Tony stood up from his as we each put an arm around each other's shoulder.
Tony: "Unless you're a plane!"
Y/n: "Or a bomb!"
Tony: "Or some ice"
Y/n: "Then he'll choose to take a nap-"
Tony: "Cause the ice seems nice"
Y/n & Tony: "When Captain America throws his MIGHTY SHIELD~"
The crowd laughs at our quick performance as we sat down before gesturing to Thor's hammer that was laid on the table.
Clint: *referring to Thor's hammer* "But, it's a trick!"
Thor: "Oh, no. It's much more than that"
Peter; "I read that in Norse mythology the hammer was specifically designed for Thor and could only be used by the God of Thunder"
Thor: "Well, I'm not too sure about those 'horse' mythology. But I do know how to bring the thunder"
Clint: "Oh please, 'Whosoever be he worthy shall haveth the power!' Whatever man! It's a trick"
Thor: "Well please, be my guest"
The room then fell silent as we all looked towards Clint.
Tony: "Come on"
Clint: "Really?"
Thor: "Yeah!"
Barton then stood up from the floor where he sat and makes his way to the hammer.
Rhodey: "Oh this is gonna be beautiful"
Tony: "Clint, you've had a tough week, we won't hold it against you if you can't get it up"
We then chuckle collectively as Clint smirked at Thor
Clint: You know I've seen this before, right?
Barton grabs Thor's hammer and went to lift the hammer, but failed to do so, much to everyone's amusement
Clint: *chuckle* "I still don't know how you do it"
Tony: "Smell the silent judgment?"
Clint: "Please, Stark, by all means"
Clint the gestures Tony over as he smugly stood up and unbuttoned one of his coat buttons before taking Clint's place by the hammer.
Natasha: "Oh, here we go"
Maria: "Okay"
James: "Uh-oh"
Clint: "Um-hmm"
Tony: "Never one to shrink from an honest challenge"
Clint: "Get after it"
Natasha: "Here we go"
Tony then slipped on the band that was the end of the handle before taking a good grip on Mjolnir.
Tony: "It's physics"
Bruce: "Physics!?"
Tony: "Right, so, if I lift it, I...I then rule Asgard?"
Thor: "Yes, of course"
Tony: "I will be re-instituting Prima Nocta"
With a firm grip on the hammer, Tony went to pull it up, only for it to have the same effect as Clint first tried.
Tony: *let go* "...Be right back"
Tony then took the left gauntlet of his Mark 43 suit and using the rocket propellers on its side, he tries to lift it again to no avail. Even with the addition of Rhodey with his gauntlet, the hammer didn't budge a single inch.
James: Are you even pulling?
Tony: Are you on my team?
James: Just represent! Pull!
Tony: Alright, let's go!
They both tried their hardest, but it was all futile. Banner tries to lift the hammer, he roars as though pretending to change into the Hulk, and everyone either looks at him warily or grins.
Bruce: "Huh?"
Next, it was Steve's turn to try.
Tony: Let's go, Steve, no pressure.
Rhodey: Come on, Cap.
Steve starts pulling on the hammer and manages to budge it a little causing Thor to look alarmed. Steve still fails to lift it leading Thor to laugh with relief.
Thor: "Nothing"
Tony: "And?"
Bruce: "Widow?"
Natasha: "Oh, no-no. That's not a question I need answering" *sips beer*
Tony: "Y/n? Peter?"
Peter: "I think I'm good"
Y/n: "And lose my last shred of Masculinity? Pass"
Tony: "All deference to the man who wouldn't be king, but it's rigged"
Clint: "You bet your ass"
Maria: *accusing point* "Steve, he said a bad language word"
Steve: *to Stark* "Did you tell everyone about that?"
Tony: *shrug* "The handle's imprinted, right? Like a security code. 'Whosoever is carrying Thor's fingerprints' is, I think, the literal translation?"
Thor: Yes, well that's, uh, that's a very, very interesting theory. I have a simpler one.
Thor then sat up from his chair and lifts his hammer effortlessly and flips it in the air before catching it.
Thor: "You're all not worthy"
Everyone let out their disapprovement with a loud groan before getting cut off by loud feedback.
(~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~)
Peter: *groan* "What was that?"
Y/n: *to Peter* "Get behind me"
Before Peter could run off, the sound of metal footsteps clanks around the halls before a mangled body of an Iron Legion droid walked into the open before speaking in a distorted male-sounding voice.
Legion Bot: "Worthy... No, how could you be worthy? You're all killers"
Steve: "Stark?"
Tony: "J.A.R.V.I.S?"
Legion bot: "I'm sorry, I was asleep. Or... I was a-dream?"
Tony: *tapping his device* "Reboot, Legionnaire OS, we got a buggy suit"
The Legion bot then wobbles around, stumbling back and forth as its posture, broken parts, and exposed tangled wires all combine to look like a robotic zombie.
Legion bot: "There was a terrible noise... and I was tangled in... in... strings. I had to kill the other guy. He was a good guy"
Steve: "You killed someone?"
Legion bot: "Wouldn't have been my first call. But, down in the real world, we're faced with ugly choices"
Thor: "Who sent you?"
The Legion bot began rewinding a tape before playing a recording of Tony's voice.
Tony's voice: "I see a suit of armor around the world"
Bruce: *shocked* "Ultron..."
Ultron: "In the flesh. Or, no, not yet. Not this... chrysalis"
Peter: *whisper* "What's going on? Who's Ultron?"
Y/n: "This is worse than I thought. *to Peter* You need to hide, now!"
Peter: "But-"
Y/n: "Just trust me, Peter. Please"
Peter nods before slipping out to find someplace to hide.
Ultron: "But I'm ready. I'm on a mission"
I see everyone subtly arming themselves, preparing for anything that might come at us.
Natasha: "What mission?"
Ultron: "Peace in our time"
(~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~)
Y/n: "Get down!"
The wall behind the legion bot, now known as Ultron, explodes as the Iron Legion bursts into the room. Everyone ducked down just in time as Steve kicked the table for cover, but the Legion bot flies past the table and collided with Steve.
Maria then began to open fire on the Legion bots to try and shoot them down as others jump off the railing or dive under the table to try and get cover.
A repulsor blast came from one of the Legion bots, taking Rhodey out of the fight temporarily as another blast came towards me. I manage to dive out of the way, leading me to slide across a table and be immediately met with Steve's shield just propped to the side.
Y/n: *sigh* "You do what you gotta do"
Grabbing the shield from the wall, I quickly stood up and hurled the shield to a column, causing the sield to bounce off in an angle before destroying on of the Legion bots.
With one of their brethren down, the bots then began shooting repulsor blast in every direction as gunshots could be heard all around the room.
After the shield hits the legion bot, it makes its way back to me as I catch it in my hand running across an incline and throwing the shield again, this time towards two more legion bots.
The legion bots manage to avoid the shield, but failed to predict the shield bouncing back, decapitating the droids as it bounced off them as the shield flew to the side of the wall.
As the shield bounced off another wall, I quickly ran up to the shield and intercepted it's flight before tossing it towards Steve.
Y/n: "Heads up, Cap!"
Steve whips his head towards the incoming shield and catches it out of the air before redirecting it towards another legion bottom, cutting it in half. I look over to the upper floor and saw Thor destroy his own legion bot with his hammer.
I then heard a shriek to my left, I look over and saw a Legion bot about to hurt Dr. Cho. I quickly look around to see what I could use as a makeshift weapon and immediately landed on the pair of drumsticks.
Swiping them off the bar, I ran over to the piano where Dr. Cho was hiding and jump off the coffee table to boost my jump height, enough to reach the Legion bot and jam the thinnest part of the drumsticks to the base of the Legion bots neck, taking it out of commission.
I hear another crash over to the side, I look over and saw Tony lying on the floor with his own destroyed Legion bot.
(~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~)
Cr, Cho: "Look out!"
I hear a mechanical arm wind up, before I could turn around to defend against the incoming threat. A bottle of alcohol flew across the room, hitting the Legion bot in the head as the contents drip down to the exposed wirings causing it to malfunction.
I then took this chance to stab the stick to the chin of the Legion bots helmet, destroying it before turning to where the bottle came from and saw Peter panting as he held another bottle ready to throw.
Y/n: *walks over* "Thanks for that"
Peter: "Yeah...*pant* No problem"
Ultron: "That was dramatic! I'm sorry, I know you mean well. You just didn't think it through. You want to protect the world, but you don't want it to change. How is humanity saved if it's not allowed to...evolve?"
Ultron then stumbles forward before picking up one of the dismembered Iron Legion bots.
Ultron: "With these? These puppets?"
Ultron then crushes the Iron Legion bot's head
Ultron: "There's only one path to peace: The Avengers' extinction"
Thor then throws his hammer and destroys Ultron's body, shattering it to pieces. As the bot powers down, Ultron began to sing with a meliscious tone.
Ultron: "I had strings, but now I'm free~ There are no strings on me, no strings on me"
