Chapter 3

   Sheen whipped around to look at the door. One of the robots from the Iron Legion, badly damaged and barely recognizable, stood right in front of the door. It played with a couple of loose wires. Something in the back of Sheen's mind told her that this wasn't one of the Legion. The technology she and Tony created, once finished, never failed unless it was mostly destroyed.

   Tony was probably mentally cursing himself for sending his Iron Man suit away so soon.

   "No..." the robot said, it's eyes flickered. "How could you be worthy? You're all killers."

   "Stark?" Steve said at the same time Sheen said, "Tony?"

   Tony lifted his phone. "Jarvis... reboot. Legion's got a buggy suit."

   "A dream," the robot said thoughtfully. "I was tangled in... strings..." It grabbed at a loose wire and pulled at it. "Had to kill the other guy... he was a good guy."

   A terrible idea formed in Sheen's mind. This robot couldn't have been something they had created. It was impossible, yet it sounded so much like Tony.

   "You killed someone?" Steve asked.

   The robot took a limping step forward. "Wouldn't have been my first call."

   Thor held his hammer in a position that clearly showed he was ready to throw it. "Who sent you?"

   The robot straightened and a recording started playing. It was definitely Tony this time. "I see a suit of armor around the world."

   Tony's eyes widened and he stared at the robot. A look of horror crossed Bruce's face. "Ultron."

   Sheen resisted the urge to turn on both of them and give them a piece of her mind. What were they thinking? Creating something unpredictable without telling the rest of the team?

   Tony and Bruce shared a knowing look. Natasha looked at them with the same confusion everyone else was surely feeling.

   "In the flesh," the robot, Ultron, said. "Well... not yet. Not this Christmas."

   Thor tightened his grip on his hammer. Agent Hill held a pistol in her hand. She pulled back the hammer and stood slowly. Clint stood still, tense.

   Sheen pulled out her own phone. Ultron had only mentioned killing one guy, who she guessed was Jarvis. Not for the first time she was glad for the backup in her suit. "Calypso, I need my suit. The sooner the better, and be careful not to hit anyone this time."

   "Of course Charmer," Calypso's soft voice said from Sheen's phone.

   "I'm on mission," Ultron said.

   Steve looked sideways at Sheen, who stood next to him. She shook her head, letting him know she knew as much as he did.

   "What mission?" Natasha asked.

   Ultron looked toward The Avengers. "Peace in our time."

   The walls exploded and four of the Iron Legion burst through. Steve kicked the coffee table into the air. Amazingly, the glass held when one of the Legion hit the table. Unfortunately, Steve and Sheen didn't have enough time to get out of the way.

   Thor hit the robot with his hammer and sent it flying out the window in pieces.

   They both hit the stairs, the coffee table smashing just above their heads.

   Steve looked at Sheen worriedly. "Are you alright? That didn't hurt me but you don't have as much strength." He stopped. "Not that-"

   "I'll be fine," Sheen groaned. "Move away a bit. Calypso tends to be bad aim."

   Steve looked confused but he got to his feet and took a couple steps away, glancing around to see where he was needed.

   Clint flew backwards into a bookshelf. Two seconds later, Rhodey fell through the glass that separated where the team was now with the quinjet hanger ten feet lower down.

   The once calm gathering had changed to chaos in a matter of seconds.

   Sheen got to her feet and held perfectly still, waiting for her metal suit to come. Tony grabbed a screwdriver off the table closest to him. Natasha had grabbed a pistol from under the bar and was shooting at the robots. Steve looked up at one of the Legion that was above his head and jumped onto it's back.

   Finally, a large square hit Sheen's back and instantly started unfolding. In less than ten seconds she was in her metal suit. Her helmet folded up last, but at that point she was already in the air.

   "Tony!" Sheen shouted over the noise. "Toss me a screwdriver!"

   Tony ducked as he ran up the stairs. "Sorry to disappoint, but I haven't got any extras!"

   "Dang it!"

   Tony leaped off the balcony and wrapped his arms around a Legionnaire. He started trying to turn it off while it zoomed around.

   "Stark!" Steve called.

   "Busy!" Tony shouted, hanging on for dear life.

   A legless Legionnaire, hovering with only one jet, pointed it's free arm at Helen, who Sheen didn't remember being there before. It's palm started glowing as Helen tried to hide behind a piano Sheen didn't know they had.

   Sheen dove down and put herself between the Legionnaire and Helen. The blast hit her in the chest, making her wobble a bit. Steve grabbed the Legionnaire and threw it behind him, where Thor smashed it with his hammer.

   Tony was still attempting to line up the screwdriver on his Legionnaire. It was threatening to hit him against a wall when he pounded the screwdriver. There was a spark as the main wire was cut and the Legionnaire sent itself and Tony crashing to the stairs.

   Just as Sheen was starting to wonder where Clint had gone he shouted. "Cap!"

   Steve's shield flew through the air. Steve caught it and threw it up at the last Legionnaire, which exploded in a shower of metal and sparks.

   "Hmph," Ultron said. He hadn't moved throughout the whole thing. "Well that was dramatic. I know you mean well, but-" he said something so quietly Sheen didn't hear it.

   Ultron started pacing. "You try to protect the world, but you don't want it to change. Why bother saving humanity if they never change?"

   Tony sat up and looked from one Avenger to the next. Sheen landed next to Steve.

   "There's only one path to peace," Ultron continued. "The Avenger's extinction."

   Thor gave Ultron a murderous glare and threw his hammer. Ultron exploded into pieces. Oddly, his head remained lit up for a moment longer before it flickered out.

   Mjolnir flew back into Thor's hand.

   Sheen's armor folded back into it's large square. She turned and caught it before it could fall very far.

   Steve's eyes blazed. "We need to talk," he growled. "The lab should do for a good place, wouldn't you say?" He glared at Tony. "We'll meet you there."

   The cube in Sheen's hands flew back the way it had come.
