VNN Newsroom Headquarters
A news reporter of VNN, Shelly Cord, repots the situation currently unfolding
Shelly Cord: A family of five was found dead along the Colorado River this morning, bringing the death toll along the California/Arizona border to over one hundred victims. The implementations of a weaponized drone fleet along the border has inflamed tensions within the young and idealistic West Coast Nation. More on that story in a moment. Good morning, I'm Shelly Cord. Today's top headline: Polls are opening across America for the country's historic first presidential recall election. Under special election rules, Americans will elect a president from a wide-open field of candidates. After a limited two-week campaign, voters have not been eagered to make up their minds. President Howard, already facing accusations of legitimacy and questions about his competency, now faces stiff competition for his job. But as the foundation of the country's electorate continues to splinter and crumble, it's unclear whether a special election can restore the unity of America. Since the attack on Washington that killed a large majority of elected federal officials, confidence in the government has plunged. Urban unrest, militia uprising, and the violence across the Southwest show no sign of abatement. The US government has failed to maintain control, and anxious citizens have turned to local leadership, with disastrous result
SHIELD Triskelion: Main Office
Captain America is seen in the main office confronting President Howard about the situation in California
Captain America: Sir, the situation now is getting out of hand. I request permission to-
John Howard: Denied
Captain America: What?
John Howard: I'm sorry, Captain, but our resources are dangerously thin. Our country's debt is at its limits, our economy is at its near point of collapse, and the military is barely holding the country together. Your orders are to stay put
Captain America: President Howard. Those are Americans in those refugee camps. I can assemble a team to-
John Howard: Stay out of California! I don't have time for this today, there is an election happening for my job. So for the lat time this is an internal problem for the West Coast. They want sovereignty, they got it. Am I clear!?
Captain America: Sir, with all due respect. Your oath of office did not stop at Mississipi. Last I check
Captain America turned and left the office. Leaving President Howard furious
John Howard: Captain Rogers! Do not turn your back on me! Captain! Where do you think you're going!?
Parker Resident

The front door rang as Gwen Stacy went and opened the front door and sees Peter standing

Johnny Storm: Hey don't worry. Ain't nothing that can take us down to keep this place safe
Peter Parker: Glad to hear that
Bobby Drake: So you're here to stay, Peter?
Peter Parker: Just for today. I have to get back soon
Gwen Stacy: Can't you just stay for another week?
Peter Parker: The way the situation is in right now. That's not possible
Marian Carlyle: Well that's the price for being an Ultimates
Peter Parker: …Is…Kitty here?
Johnny Storm: …Well-
Kitty Pryde: I'm right behind you
Hearing her voice, Kitty is seen behind Peter after she phased through the door. The two looked at each other
Peter Parker: …Kitty…
Kitty Pryde: …You're back
Peter Parker: Yeah…
Kitty Pryde: …
Peter Parker: …I heard by the way…I'm sorry. I should have come
Kitty Pryde: Don't be…You had something important with the Ultimates, and with the way things are…That comes first
Peter Parker: That still doesn't excuse the fact that you needed a friend
Kitty Pryde: …
Peter Parker: …I should have been with you sooner if I knew Kenny died. I'm sorry
Kitty Pryde: …Thank you…I mean it
Peter Parker: …You want a hug?
Kitty Pryde: …I'd like that
Peter and Kitty approached each other and gave a big hug
Peter Parker: He was a really awesome guy, and I know how much he loved you
Kitty Pryde: Kenny proved that…and I would hope he's in a better place now
Peter Parker: …
Marian Carlyle: Hey, at least we have each other now
Bobby Drake: Yeah. What better way to help a person then with friends
Gwen Stacy: You know what would make it better. Some of Aunt May's pasta with tomato sauce
Johnny Storm: Yeah that would help
Kitty Pryde: So you're staying for today, Peter?
Peter Parker: Yeah, and I could use a good home-cooked meal
May Parker: Well come in to the kitchen. I'll make it extra special for you all today
The gang then head to the kitchen for some home-cooked meal, but Peter looked through the window and was thinking about someone as Gwen notice
Gwen Stacy: Peter, you okay?
Peter Parker: Yeah. It's just…I was suppose to come here with someone
Gwen Stacy: Who?
Peter Parker: …A good friend…
Hilton Restaurant
Jessica Drew is seen looking at her phone with a message from Peter for her to meet with Aunt May and the others with him. Feeling reluctant for going as she wonders how they would react with her, while sitting in the restaurant with Monica Chang, Sue Storm, Cassie Lang, and Sif. As they are seen eating pasta with some meatballs
Cassie Lang: Wow. That looks yummy
Sif: What is this feast?
Monica Chang: Its spaghetti bolognaise covered in goats cheese and meatballs. The best money can buy
Jessica Drew: Are you serious?
Monica Chang: About what. Getting us some good food to eat?
Jessica Drew: With money spend from our SHIELD budget that could have been from US taxpayers money
Sue Storm: I see her point here. Is it really necessary to spend this much?
Monica Chang: Well I'm not going to eat anything cheap
Cassie Lang: And it looks so good
Sif: Well I'd prefer to feast a large steak from a wild beast
Monica Chang: You should have mentioned that earlier, but I can order that if you wish
Sif: I would prefer that option
Janet Van Dyne: Don't waste that much just for expensive food
Janet Van Dyne, the Jocasta, now seen with new cybernetics body parts. Appearing more like her old self, besides the exposed slim arms, legs, and eyes
Janet Van Dyne: Did I miss anything?
Sue Storm: Not much. Doing alright?
Janet Van Dyne: Better, thanks
Jessica Drew: You sure you can eat?
Janet Van Dyne: Ever since my damaged organs were replaced with new ones I've been wondering if my taste buds are still there
Monica Chang: Well then sit down and have a bite
Janet sits with the young ladies as they all have a meal while having some small talk
Monica Chang: So how is your time with Namor, Sue?
Sue Storm: What?
Janet Van Dyne: I heard. How did it feel being his personal queen of the sea?
Sue Storm: It's…an experience
Cassie Lang: What's it like down there? I've always wanted to know what Atlantis is like
Sue Storm: It's a lot of ocean with so many fishes and fancy buildings
Cassie Lang: …That's…not what I wanted to hear
Monica Chang: Just be straight to her, Susan
Sue Storm: Look, Atlantis is a place with a lot of wonders to enjoy, but really I would have to deal with Namor with most of my time there
Monica Chang: At least he didn't send a tsunami on us. That seems to be the only plus side
Sue Storm: Is that why Fury assigned me to be with him?
Monica Chang: We need him on our side, and Atlantis can have beneficial properties for us to explore. Resources to discover
Sue Storm: I guess
Janet Van Dyne: But what's so bad about it? At least you have a guy that's interested in you, and I remember correctly that you were interested in him
Sue Storm: Once. I was interested in him once, and that was before I found out he was a jerk
Janet Van Dyne: Aren't they all?
Sif: The men that I know from would fight to the death for a maiden. They must earn that right
Monica Chang: Sadly enough I would agree with that
Cassie Lang: My last boyfriend didn't even bother to try rather then me being an eye candy
Sue Storm: Don't feel bad. I was the same thing in high school
Cassie Lang: Heh
Sue Storm: And what about you, Jessica
Jessica Drew: What about me?
Sue Storm: Is there a boy you like?
Jessica Drew: …Oh…Well
Janet Van Dyne: I would rather not go there with her
Sue Storm: Why not?
Cassie Lang: Yeah. I mean is there a guy you really like?
Jessica Drew: …I couldn't say
Sue Storm: You couldn't say or you won't say
Jessica Drew: It's…complicated
Cassie Lang: Oh. So there is a guy you like?
Jessica Drew: It's not like that, but…
Sue Storm: But what?
Jessica Drew: …I rather not say
Cassie Lang: Come on
Sif: Speak, sister. Do not hold any shame
Jessica Drew: It's…not that simple. It's just…well. It's confusing
Monica Chang: In what way?
Jessica Drew: Well recently…I've stated to think about him…a lot lately…and it felt really weird thinking about him like that
Cassie Lang: Why's that?
Jessica Drew: …I don't even know
Janet Van Dyne: …
Forest Hill Cemetery
Steve is seen looking at a couple of tombstones of his family, as he was left in his thoughts about how much America has changed. Steve is then met with Tony and Thor
Tony Stark: Doing well enough, Steve?
Steve Rogers: What do you think, Tony?
Thor: So much has been done, but I feel useless standing here
Steve Rogers: Agreed
Tony Stark: So what now?
Steve Rogers: …
While standing there, Steve, Tony, and Thor are approached by a man in a hoodie
Tony Stark: Hey, do you mind?
Steve Rogers: Can I help you?
?: …The last time we were here you said that I should have left you in the ice were you belong. And I said not everything
Steve Rogers: …Fury?
The man in the hoodie is revealed to be Nick Fury, while still in a disguise
Thor: Fury?
Tony Stark: You're alive?
Nick Fury: Well it's nice to see you too. Sorry that I didn't appear more presentable instead of a hobo, but I'm still a wanted man with suits trying to track down my every move while they point a gun at my head
Steve Rogers: It's good to see you alive, Nick
Nick Fury: The feelings mutual, Steve. How you feeling?
Steve Rogers: …I don't even know where to begin. Feels like a different world now. Mass murder, extinction camps…all on US soil? I've got half a mind to storm right back in there and-
Nick Fury: Not like you to disobey a direct order
Steve Rogers: It's hell out here, Nick. The whole damn country. The people are scared. They're afraid that the UnitedState can't protect them anymore, and here I am, sitting on my dumb butt
Nick Fury: You're just doing what a good soldier does. You're following orders
Steve Rogers: I'm not just a soldier. The people need protection. Those children on the river…To die like that
Nick Fury: Pretty sure your job is to obey the Commander-in-Chief, not play guardian angel
Steve Rogers: Dammit, Nick! What is this about, anyway? The lives of America people, or the politics of a gutless president, worried about his job?
Nick Fury: …
Steve Rogers: Nick, last time we talked, you asked me…You asked me to commit treason. Maybe if I had listened to you, America wouldn't be falling apart right now. Maybe the union wouldn't be disintegrating
Nick Fury: You said it, not me
Steve Rogers: …
Wakanda
Wakandan Royal Palace: Hallway
In the isolated African nation, the King of Wakanda, T'Chaka Udaku, and his two sons are seen walking with the Wakandan Royal Guards as they are expecting visitors from outside
M'Baku Udaka: Father, is this really wise? You know what the outsider did the last time with T'Challa
T'Challa Udaka: …
T'Chaka Udaku: I am well aware of that, my son, but the world has now changed in our favor, and this group of people have showed its strength to the Americans and shattered its resolve to ever retaliate. For Wakanda to survive and become strong we need powerful allies to ensure our future along with the future of our people
M'Baku Udaka: I will believe it when I see it
Just now, the King's advisor approaches to inform him
Wakandan Royal Advisor: My King, the visitor from the City of Tomorrow is here. They've just landed outside the courtyard
T'Chaka Udaku: Very well. Inform the others to be on their guard while I speak with our guest
Wakandan Royal Advisor: There is more, my King. They did not come alone. There is another jet with them
T'Chaka Udaku: What?
Wakandan Royal Advisor: I think it is from that new mutant nation
M'Baku Udaka: Mutants, here as well?
Wakandan Royal Advisor: Yes, your highness. The mutant leader is on board to meet with you
T'Challa Udaka: …
T'Chaka Udaku: …Let them come. I wish to know what this is about
Wakandan Royal Palace: Hallway
The City of Tomorrow's own jet is seen with the X-Men's own Blackbird jet, as the Wakandan King and his sons arrived. The Blackbird jet opened first and Basilisk walked out with Xorn, and walking out from the City's own jet is the City AI himself now in a new body, which was 10 feet high with strong metallic armor along with the City's own technologies. A body originally found at the Savage Lands. The three leaders approach and meet with the King of Wakanda, who greeted them

Basilisk: It is an honor, your majesty. I am Basilisk from the Mutant nation of Utopia
Xorn: I am Xorn of the Heavenly Nation of Tian
T'Chaka Udaku: And you. I have not seen you before
?: You have, but in my previous body. Now I am designated…as Ultron of the City of Tomorrow
T'Chaka Udaku: I see. It is an honor to meet you all
Xorn: The honor is all ours and I see you've brought your sons with you
T'Chaka Udaku: Yes. My eldest, M'Baku, and my youngest, T'Challa
Basilisk: T'Challa, I know that name. He's the Black Panther
T'Challa Udaka: …
Xorn: I know of that. Fury kept you in his possession
T'Chaka Udaku: Yes, and that was something I've regretted, but now he has return to us we can hope to restore the honor of Wakanda
Basilisk: Even though you've co-operated with SHIELD a few times
T'Chaka Udaku: Do you see Fury in power now?
Basilisk: No
T'Chaka Udaku: Then we can put our minds at ease. Now you are all here in terms of our alliance?
Ultron: That can be discussed privately. For our evolution is imminent
T'Chaka Udaku: By all means then. Come in
Basilisk, Xorn, and Ultron walked in the Royal Palace with the Wakandan King and his sons for the formation of their alliance

Daily Bugle: Conference Room
Inside, J. Jonah Jameson is with Ben Urich, Robbie Robertson, and a host of other journalists they discuss about the ongoing crisis that struck all across America
Ben Urich: According to my sources, Stark Enterprises will profit from this latest tune of war to the tune of $19 billion
Robbie Robertson: So you're saying Stark started a war to make some money?
Ben Urich: No. I'm saying that Stark Enterprise is about to make a profit of $19 billion. I think that deserves further investigation
J. Jonah Jameson: Next
Daniel Cook: What about the situation with the mutants occupying Texas for about a week still
Robbie Robertson: That was done two days ago
Daniel Cook: I know that, but we didn't cover the ties the mutants have developed. Rough sources have notice activity from both the City and Tian. We don't know what they're even up to
J. Jonah Jameson: Well if you have something on paper that interest me then show me or otherwise don't. Now does anybody on this table have anything interesting at all?
Betty Brant: I have something. It's about this new Red Spider-Man that was spotted a couple of days ago
Robbie Robertson: A Red Spider-Man?
Betty Brant: That's right. There was a new Spider-Man being seen wearing only a Spider-Man mask and a red hoodie
Ben Urich: So what's your point? We have imposters before that dress up like him
Betty Brant: The imposters that dress up like him don't spare their time helping people like this one did. However, this Spider-Man appears to be targeting specific group of people that have ties to other criminal organization, because some of them had previous ties with the late Wilson Fisk
Ben Urich: And how would that work? The man's been dead since Mysterio offed him
Betty Brant: That's what I wanted to find out
J. Jonah Jameson: …
Betty Brant: …
J. Jonah Jameson: Whatever you are looking for, you don't have it yet. Don't come back in this room with nothing. Don't come at me with something I can see on YouTube. 45 minutes till we lock the late edition. GO!
Jameson and the other journalists left the conference room, but Betty sat alone looking on her smart-pad with the new Red Spider-Man. Wondering what his ties with the other Spider-Man

May Parker: You've been called to fight
Peter Parker: …

Xorn: We believe in cooperation and coexistence that will better our process of evolution
Ultron: This will ensure that. Now we must establish communication and possible economics and trade routes
T'Chaka Udaku: I'll have my officials work on a plan
M'Baku Udaka: What of my brother? Will he ever speak?
Ultron: Our technology will be able to restore Prince T'Challa's voice once more
T'Chaka Udaku: Thank you. I will not forget this
Basilisk: Just ensure no one will find out about this. We don't want SHIELD or the US government to know about this
T'Chaka Udaku: They wouldn't dare. Guaranteed
Somewhere near the City
Outside the City's capital, a group of surveillance guard patrols the area from air, until suddenly one of the guards say a spark of light flicking in the desert

City Patrol Guard 5: Curious
City Patrol Guard 4: Patrol 1. We've approach the light, but it appears to be…in air
City Patrol Guard 1 (com-link): In air? Please describe thoroughly
City Patrol Guard 4: It is hard to describe it. The light is small, but it is not moving. It has also not touched the ground nor has it attempt to do anything. This will require further examination
City Patrol Guard 1 (com-link): Stay in your position. We shall arrive in your area in a moments notice
City Patrol Guard 4: Understood. Standing by

Shelly Cord: Welcome back. Now more news are being updated around the clock, but with the polls opening for a few minutes away first we look at the recent poll made by our viewers and it looks as though both Senator Underwood and President Howard are neck-and-neck. No telling what the outcome will be and we are a few minutes away from our first results…I'm told we are going live with breaking news outside the refugee camps in Blythe, California. Jim?

Casey Holt: MOREZ! DO SOMETHING!
Morez: You said you were desperate to keep "them" out of your band new country. The Wasps are just doing what they were just told to do
Casey Holt: SHUT THEM DOWN NOW! Our country is about bringing people together through technology, not hunting them down. Policing the border was one thing, but this is over the line, Morez! This is wholesale slaughter!
Morez: Sorry gentlemen, but my job here is done. Time for me to move on
Suddenly, Morez just disappeared in an instant. Leaving the two West Coast leaders in trouble

Captain America: Okay! Black Widow, Spider-Woman, Hawkeye! Get the people to safety! Spider-Man, you're with me!

Shelly Cord: Did you see that!? Unbelievable footage ladies and gentlemen, we are witnessing an incredible development in two fronts. As Captain America fights in the West Coast, and his name emerges on the polls as a write-in candidate in the presidential recall election
Professor Frank: That's right, Shelley, by the special election rules, ant America citizen is eligible as a write-in candidate. And my goodness, since Cap's name was written in as a potential candidate his poll numbers are climbing faster then we could count
The West Coast:
Blythe, California
The Ultimates continue their assault against the drones, who have manage to protect as many refugees as they can possibly save while staying alive
Black Widow: Cap! We're getting these people underground as fast as possible, but the drones won't stop
Spider-Woman: I don't know how long we can hold!
Captain America: Acknowledged, Widow! We need to keep the pressure up until we can outflank them!
Spider-Man: You guys! Are you even done!?
Jocasta: We're nearly done! Just a few more seconds!
Iron Man: Anthony! How's it going buddy!?
Anthony (AI): Nearly got it! And there!
Jocasta: Give me control of it!
Anthony (AI): It's yours!
With few seconds to spare, Anthony has successfully hacked the Wasp's AI system and passed control over to Jocasta. With the drones now under her control, as the Wasp Drones stop firing on the Ultimates and the refugees
Iron Man: There. Got it
Hawkeye: Damn, that was close
Spider-Man: Oh man. Spider-Woman, you okay?
Spider-Woman: I'm alright
Jocasta: The Wasp drones are now under our control. Good job Anthony
Anthony (AI): Thanks, Ms. Van Dyne
Captain America: Good job everyone!
Spider-Man: What about the command source
Iron Man: Taken care of
Sacramento, California
Citrus Heights
Stature: There it is!
Sif: Thor, is that?
Thor: It is
Thor and Sif stand on top of the command bunker, with Stature surrounding it, as the two West Coast leaders came out surrendering
Allan Stafford: Oh my god! It's the Ultimates
Stature: Surrender dirt bags or you're going to get squashed!
Allan Stafford: We have no idea! They just took a life of their own!
Casey Holt: You have to believe us! We never wanted this to happen
Stature: Typical bad guy line
Thor: I believe him
Sif: So do I
Stature: What?
Thor: This rune. I recognize it anywhere
Thor and Sif look at the rune they are on and recognize it to be of Asgardian origin
Sif: This rune. Can it be?
Thor: I think so, and I have a feeling I know who it is
New York:
SHIELD Tiskelion: Command Bridge
Shelly Cord (on screen): This has been a day that Captain America or any American won't ever forget. VNN has confirm the result
With the result now revealed, Carol Danvers watched on screen and could not believe who had won the Presidential vote
Carol Danvers: No way
The West Coast:
Blythe, California
Captain America: How are you doing, son?
Boy: I'm fine now. Thank you, Cap
Jocasta: Come on, sweetheart. It's time we find your parents
Boy: Okay
Jocasta carries the boy as he waves to Captain America, while the rest of the team regroup and reflect on what has happen
Hawkeye: Hah! We did it!
Captain America: It's not over yet, but…It feels good to do something. Even something small
Spider-Man: I wouldn't call this small. Because to me we've actually made a big difference here
Black Widow: He's right. It may not be much, but I know that you gave up a lot with the president to be here, and just so you know. We'll be there for you
(RRRRING)
Iron Man: Now there's something you don't see everyday
Captain America approach a phone booth that suddenly rang, and answers it. Reveal to be Carol on the other line
Captain America: Hello?
Carol Danvers (On phone): Cap. It's Carol. So, uh…Hey, have you ever known to me to tell a joke?
Captain America: No
Carol Danvers (On phone): Good, remember that. Steve, listen to me…You just won the presidential election
Somewhere near the City
On the location where the spark of light is seen, the City's scientists have been studying it in hopes to better understand it. Ultron then appears and speaks with First Judge
Ultron: First Judge
First Judge: Designated: Ultron. I'm glad you've come
Ultron: I've studied the reports of this anomaly. Clarify
First Judge: As we've suspected. This almost bares similarities to the inter-dimensional barrier first studied by the Maker involving the Negative Zone. However, this is quite different. Our readings detect small level of tachyon particles coated
Ultron: My scanners also trace radiation levels of void particles. This cannot be
First Judge: It is, and what we've discovered a few hours ago is that the light that was small the first time it was spotted has increased a small inch as to what it was
Ultron: I do not understand the cause of it. Requesting further study of this anomaly
First Judge: And what will you do in the mean time?
The City:
The Pillar: City Chamber
Ultron is met with the other Secret Ultimates via holographic communication and discuss with them the light that appeared outside the City and how it's slowly growing
Xorn (holo-com): This is unexpected
Basilisk (holo-com): It is. Are you sure about this?
Ultron: Affirmative. What we've discover so far is this light somehow is distributing a small amount of tachyon particles and it is slowly increasing in size in a small amount of percentage
Basilisk (holo-com): But if it gets any bigger then we'll be looking at the possibility of it engulfing the City as a whole
Ultron: Correct. Further study is require to estimate the time of increase
Xorn (holo-com): You think there is a possibility of evacuation?
Basilisk (holo-com): We can't rush this unless it is sorted, but it would give us a vast amount of time to sort this out much early as we can
Ultron: Anything else you suggest, Basilisk?
Basilisk (holo-com): I'm not sure. I feel like I have seen something like this, but I need to check this out just to make sure
Xorn (holo-com): What do you mean, Basilisk?
Basilisk (holo-com): …When my old team were still alive we've encounter people from different plains of time. Mainly in the future, and some of them we've manage to travel to the future. My late friend, Hank, has studied particles that are somewhat similar to what your readings are saying
Ultron: You think this light might be leading from the future?
Basilisk (holo-com): I'm not sure, but if it is as I think it is then we might be looking at a clear situation that will put all of us at risk
Xorn (holo-com): Well this could be problematic for us if this continues
Ultron: Possible defense counter-measures must be planned immediately, but if possible to prevent this matter
Xorn (holo-com): Agreed. If the light can appear near the City then it might also appear in our states
Basilisk (holo-com): That won't happen, but that might also be troubling for us anyway
Ultron: Suggestion, Basilisk?
Basilisk (holo-com): There is one who has some experience on this kind of thing, but I'm not sure if we would need his help
Xorn (holo-com): Who?
Basilisk (holo-com): We know who. We've all had an encounter with him already
Xorn (holo-com): …
Ultron: …
The Next Day: Morning
SHIELD Triskelion: Hallway
Spider-Man is seen in the hallway on his phone with his Aunt May
May Parker (on phone): You sure everything is alright, dear?
Spider-Man: Everything is okay, Aunt May. Kind of exciting to be honest
May Parker (on phone): I can imagine how that must felt. We'll be seeing you on TV
Spider-Man: Alright. Say hi to everyone for me. I love you
May Parker (on phone): I love you too, dear
Spider-Man hangs up his phone as Spider-Woman appeared
Spider-Woman: Hey. Everyone's ready
Spider-Man: Yeah. I'm ready
Spider-Woman: How's Aunt May?
Spider-Man: She's good, but worried after seeing me in California
Spider-Woman: Heh. I can already imagine
Spider-Man: …Can I ask you something?
Spider-Woman: What is it?
Spider-Man: Why didn't you come with me to see Aunt May and the others?
Spider-Woman: …
Spider-Man: They…would really like to meet you. Even Aunt May would be welcoming to you
Spider-Woman: …Peter…I-
Iron Man: Hey you kids
Iron Man suddenly appears to call them
Spider-Man: Iron Man?
Iron Man: It's now time and you don't want to miss this
Spider-Man: …
Spider-Woman: …Shall we?
SHIELD Triskelion: Hangar Bay
Spider-Man and Spider-Woman arrived to join up with the rest of the Ultimates, as they stand at the inauguration of Captain America, who just arrived and stood at a podium as he speaks in front of a crowd of news broadcasters
Captain America: Thanks for coming today. I'll try to make this quick. I am honored to be elected President by the people of the United States, but I am a soldier, not a politician. America is deep in crisis. We're divided, mistrustful, nervous, and scared. America has asked me to lead them. I ask America to look within themselves. My grandmother always said, ask not for challenges equal to our strength, but for strength to equal our challenges. To the children, I know what it is like to grow up in desperate times. I was taught that everyone must do their best. That we must do everything we can to take care of each other. No exceptions. We all must live up to our potential. That when we are called, we must answer, or we are lost. I look at America right now, broken, in pieces, and I remember. I risked everything to answer a call. I realize I can do more to serve my country. I know I can do more to live up to my potential. This crisis calls us all to do our best. To rebuild our fragile unity. To find the strength equal to our challenges. I have decided to answer the call of the people. I accept
Captain America then raises his hand
Captain America: I, Steve Rogers, Captain America, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States. And will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States
New York City: Times Square
Everywhere around the country, the citizens of America cheered that Captain America is now the new President of the United States, with the other Ultimates congratulating him. However, on top of the buildings in Times Square, Kang is seen as she watches the people cheering, but knows well another part of the plan is taking place
Kang: Well this is done. Now I wait for the next move. It's time you start impressing me
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Hey again. Sorry that I took long, but I had to finish up a chapter from one of my story.
I've been trying to figure out how I can do this chapter, and I had to edit a couple of bits out and rewrite some of them. I originally planned to have Jessica with Peter to meet Aunt May and the others, but that somehow didn't work out. I might do it later on a different volume
I've also been trying to improve some of the action scenes, but that might also need more work
Anyway, this volume is almost done and hopefully I might get to work on the next one. No guarantees it wll be up soon as I have other stories to do
Please Review
