Chapter 5- A risky gamble
Ultron's Castle
Natasha rammed a jeep into some Terminators while Clint sat on the back, firing arrow after arrow. She maneuvered the jeep around to avoid any attacks from plasma rifles while Clint ducked.
Rhodes and Sam flew past them, blasting any Ultron Sentries that tried to attack them.
An HK-Tank tried to fire at Natasha and Clint from behind but Thor smashed it with Mjolnir before flying off and hitting some Ultron Sentries with a lightning bolt, destroying them.
Steve and Bucky drove on motorcycles at full speed. Bucky managed to trip a Terminator and grabbed it by the leg as he continued speeding before bashing it against a tree.
Steve threw his shield. It was deflected around by trees and hit some Terminators while he sped his motorcycle into some of them, making them fly back by a few feet. He then caught his shield on return and put it back.
Two HK-Tanks tried to fire at them but Thor smashed another one with Mjolnir while Hulk lifted one up and with a roar, smashed it on the ground.
An HK-Aerial tried to fire at them but Wanda arrived and defended them with her hex shield before projecting it outward and increasing its energy so much that it destroyed the HK-Aerial on hitting it.
Pietro sped around, punching Terminators with super-speed punches.
Hulk picked up two Terminators and threw them away while Natasha rammed her jeep into some of them before she jumped out of it with Clint.
And then, all the Avengers charged together.
Rhodes and Sam flew into the air, destroying Ultron Sentries. They tried to fly to the castle but there was a barrier that prevented them from entering.
"Anyone else getting déjà vu?" Natasha asked via earpiece.
"I thought I was the only one", Steve said dryly.
Thor landed on the ground and swatted some Terminators away with Mjolnir.
"Looks like Ultron has Loki's scepter", Thor said as he threw Mjolnir, destroying some Terminators, "That along with Skynet can mount this kind of defense."
He then caught Mjolnir on return.
Two of the Terminators were about to fire a plasma cannon mounted on a vehicle when Natasha threw a grenade. It exploded, sending them flying off. She then fired at an Ultron Sentry, taking it down.
Clint too fired at one while hidden behind a tree, taking it down.
Rhodes and Sam continued destroying any Ultron Sentries near the castle.
Steve and Bucky saw two vehicles driven towards them with plasma cannons mounted behind, two Terminators operating each.
Before they could fire, Steve and Bucky flipped and threw their bikes. The bikes hit the vehicles, breaking them apart as the Terminators fell away.
Ultron watched the scene from a window. He had Loki's scepter in his hand. The Mind Stone was on the top.
"You're persistent", he said in an annoyed tone, "But no one can defeat Skynet."
An HK-Tank tried to fire at Clint but Hulk ran into it at full speed, shattering it.
Rhodes and Sam flew around, destroying more Ultron Sentries. Thor then slammed Mjolnir on the ground near the building. A powerful lightning bolt hit it, disabling the barrier.
"We can enter", Sam said happily as he kicked the doors open with Rhodes on his side. Pietro sped in at full speed, holding Wanda. She hit the Terminators with her most powerful blasts, destroying them.
Steve, Bucky, Natasha, Clint and Hulk arrived too.
"The time machine has to be in the basement laboratory", Steve said as he tried to run into there. He was then hit by a blast and fell back by a few feet.
Everyone looked up to see Ultron in the air, holding the scepter.
"Ultron!" Thor snarled.
"You, Avengers, you failed to stop Judgment Day", Ultron gloated, "So now are you trying to commit suicide?"
"No", Natasha said, "We are here to stop you."
"Yeah, about that", Ultron said as suddenly someone descended from the roof. The figure stood up, revealing itself to be a T-1000.
It turned its hands into blades and attacked. Natasha backed to avoid as Bucky put his metal arm in the way.
Rhodes fired a repulsor at its face. The machine staggered but recovered quickly and gave Rhodes a powerful kick, sending him flying back.
Ultron was about to fire a repulsor at them when he was hit by Mjolnir and flew back by a few feet.
Thor caught it on return and flew at Ultron. The hammer and the scepter clashed.
Sam fired his Steyr SPP Pistols at the T-1000. It staggered slightly but was unaffected. Clint gave it a smack on the face from his bow in a spin motion but it grabbed his hand and tripped him. It then raised its blade and was about to stab him when Steve blocked with his shield and pushed it back.
Ultron fired a blast at Thor with the scepter which sent him flying back. That moment, he was hit by Wanda and staggered back.
Pietro hit the T-1000 with super-speed punches but it recovered every time. Hulk picked it up and with a roar, ripped it apart before throwing it down.
The particles that made its body pieced themselves back together and it was back again.
"We need to distract them", Natasha said.
"For us to win the battle, some of us need to stay behind", Sam said.
"I have to agree with him", Clint said.
Looking at them all, Steve said, "It was an honor to know all of you, to fight alongside you all. You're all the best comrades anyone could ask for."
They all nodded as he gave them a salute and he saluted back. Steve then sprinted towards the basement laboratory. Ultron was about to fire when a lightning bolt from Mjolnir made him stagger back.
The Avengers continued fighting Ultron and the T-1000 as Steve reached the basement laboratory.
He saw the Time Machine and slowly made his way over to it. That moment, the door on his left side flew at him and hit him, making him fly to the other side.
Steve groaned as he tried to get up. As he looked up, he saw a T-800 walk out of the room. Like the one they had sent back in time, it was covered with living tissue and was naked. It looked exactly like that one.
Steve threw his shield and hit it, making it fly back by a few feet. He caught it on return but as he got up, it grabbed him by the throat and threw him off into a corner. He hit a drawer and fell down.
As it neared him, he punched it on the face, making it stagger away. It recovered and tried to punch which Steve blocked with his shield. It grabbed him by the collar and threw him away. He hit another wall and fell down.
He got up and ran in another direction to avoid it. His path was blocked by another T-800. This one was pure metal and held a plasma rifle. It fired at him but he blocked with his shield and rammed into it at full speed, making it fall down. He then smashed its face repeatedly, disabling it.
He then ran to the other direction. The previous T-800 walked after him. Turning around again, Steve threw his shield. It hit it very hard, making it fly back by a few feet.
Steve then did not think about the shield and made a mad dash for the Time Machine. The T-800 got back up and walked after him.
He quickly fed it the year as the T-800 advanced. He strapped inside as the machine glowed blue. Electricity crackled.
The T-800 was about to punch the machine to stop him but in that moment, he disappeared.
And now the plot thickens. The story is about to end in a couple of chapters.
