"What is this place." I hit Pietro's arm as he was looking around a little kid. Wanda walked ahead of us, kind of like she knew what was there. I could feel it to. It was a tugging sensation in the back of my mind.

"Cellular cohesion will take a few hours, but we can initiate the consciousness stream." Dr. Helen Cho was connecting wires to the back of Ultron's head as we walked into the room,

I could sense something powerful in the room, unknowing of what was actually in the box. Pietro waited at the door, keeping guard. Wanda went towards the coffin in the middle as I stood a few steps behind her.

"We're uploading your cerebral matrix now." The doctor spoke, walking to a computer that beeped.

"I can read him." My head whipped into her direction. "He's dreaming." A blue light covered the figure, only showing a bright glowing stone on his forehead. "I wouldn't call it dreams. It's Ultron's base consciousness. Informational noise. Soon..."

"How soon?" He cut her off. "I'm not being pushy."

I followed Wanda, standing beside the casket. She placed her hands face down on the lid, eyes closed with a head tilt. My hand hovered in the air, sapphire flowing from my palm, with my eyes falling close at the power.

"We're imprinting a physical brain." Dr. Cho explained. "There are no shortcuts. Even if your magic gem.."

I felt like my breath quicken and my heart race at the thoughts. A gasped was heard from beside me, but it took a second for me to escape the thoughts. It felt like I was going down a rabbit hole. One of of destruction. Not one I wanted anything to do with. I finally pulled back, gasping for air as I felt a hand hit my back, stopping me from falling backwards. I turned to see the same expression on Wanda and concern mixed with anger on Pietro's.

"How could you?" Wanda looked to Ultron in despair.

"How could I what?"

"You said we would destroy the Avengers, make a better world."

"It will be better."

"When everyone is dead?" I asked, more as a question, but still with anger.

"That is not..." He stopped, thinking of the right words to say. "The human race will have every opportunity to improve."

"And if they don't?" Pietro questioned from my right. "Ask Noah." Our brother turned back to us. Patience running thin with Ultron. "You are a madman." She spoke, still in shock.

"There were more than a dozen extinction level events before even the dinosaurs got theirs." We just stared in pure shock at Ultron. "When the Earth starts to settle, God throws a stone at it. And, believe me, he's winding up. We have to evolve. There's no room" He lent over the casket, talking. "for the weak."

I sent a blue mist towards the Doctor, removing the control that was from Loki's sceptre. Blue like veins scattered over her skin. Eyes turning from blue to black, back to herself. "And who decides who's weak?" Pietro asked at the same time, moving a step in front of us.

"Life." Ultron chuckled back. "Life always decides." The twins and I shared a glance, just as we heard an aircraft approaching. "There's incoming."

Pietro walked back over to us, pulling both of us into a hug. He kissed the side of Wanda's head, before kissing the back of my head. I was leaning my head on his shoulder, looking away from the others and to the wall. A small tear escaped from Wanda, but I was still reliving the images I saw. How could he want so much death and destruction. We wanted Revenge. Yes. But not this.

"The Quinjet. We have to move." He looked to Helen. "That's not a problem." The twins looked back to see if Ultron would know Helen was in control. I didnt look away once from the wall.

He sighed in annoyance, as Helen Cho paused the upload. A blast emerged from of his hand, sending it straight towards the Doc, causing her to go flying.

This immediately caused me to turn around at the noise. Wanda turned to run, but Pietro grabbed both of us, speeding us away. "Guys." Ultron let out a groan, trying to call for us. "Wait, guys."

I panted as soon as we stopped moving. "Wh-"

"We need to find the Avengers." Wanda cut Pietro off, who was helping me stand up right. "What?" I asked, confusion written on my face.

"If we find them, we'll find Ultron. We stop him from destroying the world." I nodded and glanced up to my brother. He wasnt sure. "And Stark?"

"I don't know." she looked down. "Stark will pay."

We sat for a moment, trying to figure out where to go. We needed to get away from Ultron first.

Both were confused, as I got up, dragging them both behind as I held onto their wrists.

A few minutes later, we walked through a market, trying to lay low from the ruckus. I followed behind the twins, playing with the rings on my fingers, When suddenly, we stopped. I followed the direction they were looking at. In a store window, a small TV was playing the news. The Avengers fighting of a silver robot. Ultron.

The three of us shared a look. Knowing, we had to help and had to do it now. Innocents would die if we didn't.

Pietro turned to find the direction, and picked us up, speeding towards the sound of commotion that happened to be a train.

Meanwhile, Steve threw the shield at Ultron, he just deflected it. People screamed with fear at the soldier and robot fighting in the middle. Ultron flew forward, as Steve jumped over him. Landing, the former sent a blast that hit the shield, sending the soldier to fall back.

"I'm going in. Cap, can you keep him occupied?" Romanoff asked of his com. Panting, he spoke. "What do you think I've been doing?" Natasha jumped into the back of the lorry. Two of Ultron's army bots flew to the under side of the vehicle, attaching to it, flying it into the air.

On the train, the super soldier was dodging a hit from the Vibranium synthezoid. The shield was clashing against the bot, sending out sparks. Just as a punch was received to Steve, Pietro ran towards the bot, knocking him away. Me and Wanda walked towards the two in the centre, as Pietro came to a halt at the end of the carriage.

Ultron made his attempt to get to the speedster, red and blue mist holding down the bars, blocking his way. Turning around, he saw both me and Wanda, red mist dancing around her hands and my brown iris turned blue.

Steve got up from the fall, looking behind to see us, just as Ultron spoke to us. Trying to reason. "Please, don't do this."

"What choice do we have?" I asked as a question, but wasn't expecting an answer. He turned to our brother, sending an orange heat blast his way, but Pietro saw it in time, ducking with his speed. The shot went straight the door and crashing the window. In a haste, Ultron disappeared out the side. All of us held on as the train started to screech.

The soldier jumper over the rail, towards the door. "I lost him!" Steve shouted, aiming for it to be heard in his com. "He's headed your way!" The train didn't stop. It was full of people, and the blast from Ultron hit the buttons, causing the vehicle to now be faulty.

"Nat, we gotto go." Clint was waiting for the casket and Natasha to make their way towards the jet. Just as the case hit the floor, Natasha's leg was grabbed by Ultron, causing her to let go of the coffin and was flown away.

I grabbed on to the crates as we crashed into boxes and other stuff that was on the pavement.

"Cap, you see Nat?" Clint was worried for his best friend. "If you have the package, get it to Stark! Go!" "Do you have eyes on Nat?" Clint repeated. "Go!" the soldier ordered.

The Captain looked to us, commanding orders straight away. "Civilians in our path." I let go of Pietro, as i held my pinkie finger to his. It was something we did as a kid. The blonde speed of, moving people out of danger.

"Can you stop this thing?" The soldier looked to us. Wanda looked at him with doubt. I squeezed her hand and looked back the captain. "Yes." I replied for her as well. "Wan." I said to her, making her look to me. She nodded and scarlet mixed with sapphire began creeping around the train. Red, Blue and Silver, could be seen moving with train. Wanda and I attempting to stop it, and Pietro running as fast as he could, moving the innocents out of sight. 

With a loud screech, the train finally came to a halt. As quickly as possible, the citizens left, scared out of their mind still. I saw sight of Pietro and was dragged by our sister to go over to him. Wanda placed a hand to his back as he was scrunched over, placing a hand on the wall for support. "I'm fine." I moved over to stand in front of him. "You're not." I placed my hands either side of face, moving it as I checked for injuries. Pietro moved my arm away as he sat down on a box that was on the floor. "I just need to take a minute." Remembering, I grabbed a small chocolate bar from my pocket that I stole earlier. I gave it to my brother as he collected himself.

"I'm very tempted not to give you one." The Captain walked over to us.

"The cradle. Did you get it?" Wanda asked, turning to him. "Stark will take care of it."

"No, he wont." I muttered, causing Rogers to face me. "You don't know what you're talking about. Stark's not crazy." With a sigh i get up from kneeling in front of Pietro, and walked past Wanda, to now stand in front of the soldier. "He will do anything to make things right." He looked into my eyes, trying to figure out what plan I had and If I was to trust.

"Stark, come in." Wanda, who was wearing a look of disbelief, walked to beside Pietro while I kept my eyes trained on Steve. "Stark." he asked again into his com. "Anyone on comms."

"Ultron can't tell the difference between saving the world and destroying it." Wanda spoke from behind me.

"Where do you think he gets that?" I added. "It's your choice now."
