Over 100 follows: I'm amazed by that. Thank you!
At a salvage yard off the South African coast.
Laura had snuck her way onto the large cargo ship.
With her Glock in her hand.
It was surprisingly easy.
The others were behind her since she demanded an "audience" with Klaue.
To get her revenge.
Steve argued against the violence but she shut him down.
She shot the guard at the entrance by the hull of the ship and ran inside.
She saw an armed guard whose back was against her as she snuck up behind him.
Reaching up she snapped his neck and he face planted with a thud.
She put her Glock in the holster and reached back for her spear.
Running down the halls and up the spiral, narrow, metal staircase of the darkened hallway that ran adjacent along the cargo hold.
She heard shouts and weaponry being moved from it by Klaue's men.
Ahead of her were two guards who didn't even seem to notice her silently approaching from the side before it was too late.
Her blasting them away over the railing.
"What the hell?" she heard Klaue shout.
Tapping the butt end of it on the grated hallway, knocking out the power of the ship.
The men began screaming at each other in the darkness.
"Guys, What am I paying you for…" she heard him rant before he ran out.
With a war cry, she sliced off his arm and kicked him back into his office.
He cried out in pain as he stumbled backwards onto his back on the floor.
She stomped his foot on his neck and pressed the blade against his cheek.
"Remember me?" she said through her clenched teeth.
"Black Bird. What a nice surprise…" he choked out blood.
"You know who I am! Twenty Nine years ago! Brooklyn! You murdered them! Admit it!" she shouted, her voice echoing off the metal walls.
She saw him actually try to remember for a moment before he smiled with amusement.
"Oh, it's you! It's you... The daughter!" he said and began to chuckle.
"I should have known. Seeing you on the news with the Avengers and all…" he said while laughing like a mad man.
Laura was gripping her spear to the point her knuckles turned white.
"You know, you look just like your mum…" he joked, snapping her anger.
With a cry she raised her spear above her head for the final strike.
Klaue just laughed as she was about to cut off his head but Pietro ran in with his superspeed and grabbed the handle.
Ah, ah, ah. I need him. I'm afraid." he said.
She sent a blast at the wall, knocking him back but it took her with it.
She flipped around, kicking off the wall before landing on her feet.
Aiming her spear at him as Wanda walked.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." she threatened.
"Oh yeah and why not physcyho mutants?" she insulted.
Not seeing Ultron float up behind her.
He grabbed her by the hair and tossed her through a glass wall and into the other room.
With a cry, she landed hard on her back.
"Geez, I was in the middle of something…" she quipped but stopped.
Seeing Ultron's much larger body towering over her.
"I can see that. But as much as I respect your knack for violence I need something of his…" he said while nodding back at Klaue who was still on his back.
"The Vibranium?" she asked and he chuckled.
"Violent and smart. I see why Stark has kept you around…" he said but grabbed her throat.
He hoisted her upwards, causing her drop her spear as she pried at his grasp.
Clenching his wrist but they were interrupted.
"Ahh, Junior…." Tony said as he landed in his suit in the cargo hold.
Along with Thor and Steve.
"You're gonna break your old man's heart." Tony joked but saw Laura.
"Watson..."
"If I have to." Ultron threatened while crushing Laura's neck.
Clint and Nat began sneaking up on the scene.
Her seeing spots in her vision.
"We don't have to break anything. Now please let Lady Laura go." Thor asked firmly
"Clearly you've never made an omelet." Ultron joked.
"He beat me by one second." Tony quipped.
"Ah, this is funny, Mr. Stark. It's what, comfortable? Like old times?" Pietro indicated Sokovia while looking down at Stark missiles in the cargo hold below.
"This was never my life." he sighed.
"You two can still walk away from this." Steve told the twins.
"No, they can't." Laura managed to choke out between gasps.
"Oh, we will." Wanda said while eyeing her.
"I know you've suffered." he tried again but Ultron interrupted him.
"Ugh! Captain America. God's righteous man, pretending you could live without a war. I can't physically throw up in my mouth, but..." Ultron gagged but Thor spoke up.
"If you believe in peace, then let us keep it. Let Lady Laura go." Thor demanded.
"I think you're confusing peace with quiet." he threatened.
"What's the Vibranium for?" Tony asked, his HUD highlighting it.
"I'm glad you asked that, because I wanted to take this time to explain my evil plan…" Ultron tossed Laura to the gangplank, hard, knocking her out with a solid punch to the head.
"Laura!" Tony shouted in fear before flying towards Ultron.
He sent a blast at him, knocking him back into the wall before the two charged for each other.
They fought as Steve and Thor took out more Iron Legions.
Wanda sent a blast at Steve, knocking him backwards.
Nat managed to take out several guards with ease, making her way towards Laura while Clint fired his arrows at his targets.
Pietro was running quickly through the scene, punching Steve in the face, knocking him down.
Thor threw Mjolnir at him which he grabbed but it took him with him backwards over the railing.
Tony and Ultron fight took them outside as Natt grabbed Laura's spear and dragged her body out of harm's way.
Pietro was stumbling upwards but Steve knocked him down with his Shield.
"Stay down, kid." he ordered.
"It's time for some mind games." Ultron told Wanda in a legionnaire.
Bruce was in the Quinjet which was parked a distance away on the shore.
Hearing the gunfire and explosions on the ship.
"Guys, is this a Code Green?"
Wanda snuck up on Thor and used her telekinesis to brain wash him.
"Thor! Status?" Steve asked.
"The girl tried to warp my mind. Take special care, I doubt a human could keep her at bay. Fortunately, I am mighty…." he said before his mind took him to a party on Asgard.
Laura woke up grouchily and Nat helped her up.
"Careful. We're in a bit of a situation." she said while helping her up.
"Ah, I'm getting too old for this…" she managed to say.
Her voice hoarse and raspy.
She winced, clenching her neck but Wanda used her powers on her and Nat.
Her eyes dilated as her mind took her to the palace in Wakanda.
Seeing it in a smoldering ruins.
Seeing the shields of Wakanda fall.
It being invaded by an alien army.
She was walking outside on the platform.
Walking between the bodies of Dora and soldiers.
Walking towards the palace doors but she spotted T'Challa, Shuri, Ramonda and T'Chaka's bodies on top of each other.
"No, no, no, no…" she choked out while running towards them.
Knelling down and clenching T'Challa's hand in agony but he suddenly grabbed her strongly.
Shocking her who stumbled backwards onto her but he opened his eyes and arched his head up to her.
"You put us in danger…" she heard him say before her vision went black.
While she and Nat were in their day dreams, the Iron legions were loading up the cases of Vibranium.
Clint was still firing at his targets.
Firing a sonic arrow down at the gangplank, the shockwave knocking down the remaining guards.
Wanda tried sneaking up behind him but he attached a shock arrow to her forehead.
"I've done the whole mind control thing. Not a fan." he said drily but then Pietro speeds in, knocked him down, picked her up and ran off.
"Yeah, you better run."
Tony and Ultron were still fighting each other high above the salvage yard.
Sending blasts at each other in the dog fight before Tony managed to send one at him, causing him to crash into the bow of a ship.
"Ah, the Vibranium's getting away." he warned.
"And you're not going anywhere." Tony quipped back.
"Of course not, I'm already there. You'll catch on. But first, you might need to catch Dr. Banner." he hinted.
Angrily, he fired a wrist rocket at him before taking off for Johannesburg.
Outside the city, a raging Hulk brainwashed by Wanda leapt towards it.
Tony was flying quickly towards the scene.
"News or footage, keyword: Hulk." he asked and his HUD highlighted videos and news articles of Hulk terrorizing and destroying the city.
"Natasha, I could really use a lullaby." he asked.
Back on the ship, her and Laura were sitting down next to each other.
Sweating and panting heavily.
Looking like wrecks, trying to snap out of their dreams.
Clint worryingly checking on them.
"Well, that's not gonna happen. Not for a while. The whole team is down, you got no back up here." Clint replied.
"I'm calling in VERONICA."
Up in space, the satellite detached and a pod was launched from it down towards Johannesburg.
Swat units were racing towards the scene as Hulk smashed cars and wrecked the city.
VERONICA flew down, detaching a Hulkbuster suit while swat fired at him.
The bullets struck him and he angrily charged for him.
But the suit, clamped down around him, tapping him in the metal enclosed cell that assembled around him.
The swat teams aimed their rifles at him and slowly walked towards it.
South Africans were fleeing from the scene but Hulk smashed the cell.
That shook the ground, causing a ripple effect with each punch.
It eventually created a crater, sinking the cage into the street.
Hulk leapt from it, punching a car with a screaming woman inside but the police began firing at his back.
He turned around but Tony landed in the Hulkbuster suit.
"Alright everybody, stand down!" he shouted, getting Hulk's attention.
"You listening? That little witch is messing with your mind. You're stronger than her, you're smarter than her, you're Bruce Banner." he declared but Hulk roared in anger.
"Right, right, right! Don't mention puny Banner." he said but Hulk picked up and threw a car at him.
He caught it but Hulk charged for him.
"Okay…" Tony flew towards him, grabbing Hulk by the neck, flying forwards as his body ripped p the pavement.
He got free of his grasp and charged for him again but Tony blasted him away.
Losing his balance, Hulk punched him in the back, causing him to lose control and crash into a building.
"In the back? Dick move, Banner." he said before Hulk leapt on him.
Ripping multiple pieces out of his suit.
Tony managed to toss him away but he crashed into a market.
A light pole was wedged in the suit arm which he couldn't detach to replace.
"VERONICA, gimme a hand." three pods were launched from the hovering satellite as Hulk charged for Tony.
Smashing the market, the pieces attached, making a new harm and he swung the fist.
That matched Hulks, creating a shockwave.
That shattered the nearby glass, flinging people backwards.
Tony then grabbed him and began punching him repeatedly.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep!" he said desperately but Hulk grabbed thee suit hand.
He entrapped his fist in it and began flying away with Hulk trapped with him.
"Okay, pal, we're gonna get you out of town…" Tony said but began to lose control with Hulk's resistance.
"No, not that way, not that way!" he said before crashing through into another tower.
"Come on, Bruce! You gotta work with me!" Tony said but lost his grip on him near an elevator.
He pinned him to a wall, punching him as the doors opened behind him.
The passengers stayed inside but Hulk kicked Tony backwards to it.
It was free falling but Tony caught the cables and hovered in place.
Letting everyone stumble outwards.
But then, he landed one hard punch to Hulk's face.
He turned his cheek to him, spitting out a tooth.
Tony swallowed in fear.
"I'm sorry." Hulk grabbed him, leaping high and began smashing him as they ascended against the glass wall of another nearby tower.
Hulk ripping more pieces out of the Hulkbuster.
"Damage report?" he asked his glitching out HUD.
"That's comprehensive. Show me something." he asked and the HUD showed him the building ahead was under construction and clear of civilians.
"How quickly can we buy this building?" he asked before Stark dropping Hulk through it.
He flew down and shoved Hulk forcefully through it, completely destroying it in a fiery ruin.
As the smoke cleared, the army surrendered the scene.
In the rubble, Hulk got up, looking around to see the chaos and everyone fleeing from him as his mind cleared from Wanda's control.
The soldiers aimed their rifles at him but before he could react Tony knocked him out cold.
