Chapter 12
"What's this?" Bruce asked, picking up the first half of the hand cuffs from the floor underneath the desk.
"Electrical hand cuffs, some kind of wireless charge," Tony answered from the other side of the room while he picked up things and handed them off to Dummy.
"Lethal?" Bruce examined the hand cuff closely, flipping it this way and that.
"I wouldn't be here if it had been," Tony simply replied, tossing a pile of papers with bullet holes in them in the garbage.
Bruce disposed of the strange handcuffs on the workbench.
"So they knew we had the stone...?" Bruce wondered aloud, "We'd only had it for less than an hour, how the hell did HYDRA know we'd gotten it?"
"I'm not sure they were HYDRA," Tony told him, remembering how they hadn't worn HYDRA uniforms, and none of them had been evil german scientists.
"Then who were they?" Bruce sent Tony a confused glance.
"Someone who wanted the stone, pretty smart... Sounds like a third party," Tony suggested, meeting Bruce's glance.
"Ultron wasn't the last of the third parties?" Bruce sounded annoyed.
"That wasn't- That wasn't supposed to happen. His parts are being dismantled as soon as I save his memory card," Tony spoke quickly.
"Save his memory card?" Bruce nearly yelled the question, storming across the workshop towards Tony.
"Well if I don't, we'll loose all the battle strategies he saved, and all the information we stored, and we can't even begin to imagine what he collected from having an infinity stone inside him," Tony listed the endless scientific wonders of something so dangerous.
"Tony, we can't power him up," Bruce said, "If we do... There's no guarantee that the stone won't come back to him, that's how it attached itself to him the first time."
"It'll only be for a few seconds," Tony seemed hurt by Bruce's sudden angry tone.
Bruce's eyes shined an unhumane green for a moment.
"You can't," Bruce tried again.
"I have to," Tony replied, backing away from Bruce slowly.
"Tony-!" Bruce called after him, but he was already gone.
In Avenger's Tower's Basement...
"Alright Jarvis, deploy Mark 43," Tony instructed before opening the locked cage where he had stored the Ultron armor until now.
"Sir, I strongly recommend you don't power the Ultron device, there's no way to tell whether the infinity stone would return, therefor returning Ultron his power. This time he may even be able to hack my systems, and that would be unresolvable," Jarvis told Tony, withholding the Mark 43.
"Override Jarvis control one-oh-eight. The Mark 43, please," Tony's voice became angry and annoyed.
"Yes sir," Jarvis replied uneasily, the Mark 43 flying swiftly onto Tony.
"Now then, begin saving protocol five-three-seven," Tony told his AI, opening the cage's door.
"Saving protocol now online," Jarvis informed him.
Tony flipped on the lights in the room, revealing a broken limped iron man suit, covered in the strongest metal in the world, from Wakanda.
It's Vibranium... We should save it. Tony's inner scientist kicked in, and he powered up the Ultron armor.
Nothing happened for a while, and Tony began saving the data, and dismantling the armor.
Then the red stone appeared from the doorway, flew into the core of Ultron's armor, and glowed red.
The dismantled pieces of armor flew back to Ultron, rebuilding him from the ground up.
Tony tried to pull the armor back off, beginning to panic, but Bruce and Jarvis had been right, this had been too dangerous to do just for data and vibranium.
"Jarvis, reroute the Ultron armor offline, Jarvis! Jarvis...!" Tony yelled into his suit's speakers, but got no reply. Access codes and Ultron's battle strategies filled Tony's iron man suit's screen.
"Dammit," Tony mumbled, backing away from the armor, trying to hack back into his own suit.
"I'm not your puppet anymore," Ultron's terrifying voice crept into the speakers in Tony's suits. The joints in the suit became stiff, and Tony no longer had control over his own motions, "You're mine."
SO NOW ULTRON HAS CONTROL OVER TONY'S SUIT. WITH HIM IN IT.
O M G.
I just had to, sorry. It was inevitable. And what will the Avengers assume when they see IRON MAN helping ULTRON?! Will they trust their friend? Or will this lead to the Civil War Storyline? OH NO!
