Tony looked over to James who sat alone. He wished that he could have told James his theory of his parent's being alive.
He hated seeing James so depressed at the thought of never seeing his parent's again but he knew it was nessessary for James to believe that his parent's were gone.
If James had known that Steve and Natasha were alive then he would surely try to go find them and Tony couldn't bare the thought of losing James.
Especially after the promise he made to Steve that he would take care of his only son.
Cap, I wish you could see how much your son is like you. Tony thought as he returned to tinkering with a device he hoped would help defeat Ultron. I really hope that we can get you back. He would be so happy to have you back. He looks up to you so much. Just like we all did.

"You can't be here. It's too dangerous." Bruce stated. "The Hulk is too dangerous."
"It's okay, Bruce. We just had to get out of the city." Tony said.
"Can the Hulk defeat Ultron?" James asked.
"James!" Tony scolded.
"The Hulk doesn't care about Ultron, boy!" Bruce declared. "He just wants to be left alone. You are all in danger. I have to stay here. I have to keep the Hulk inside. When the Hulk comes out, bad things happen. The Hulk won't help you, and neither will I."

Azari sighed as he traced his finger along the wall, static lighting up the dark cave entrance until he came outside where the others were.
"So where do you think we'll go now?" he asked. "Tony wants us to hide out..."
"He's right. We have to run." Torunn said sitting on the cliff edge. "We have to hide. We can't beat Ultron."
"Yes, we can." James declared as he appeared on the ledge above the four. "And we have to. We can't hide anymore, Torunn. If we don't stay up to Ultron, who will? If we don't protect people like the scavengers, who will? We have to make a stand. The longer we wait the more powerful Ultron becomes. He'll never stop hunting us. He'll never stop coming after Tony. WE have to stop him."
The red haired teen jumped down to be on the same level as his adopted siblings.
"We owe it to our parents. Now that we know they're alive and we can save them, we should do everything we possibly can to get them back. Think how much better things would be for all of us if the Avengers were back. The Hulk is the strongest one there is, right? Well, if we can't get the Hulk to come to Ultron, then we'll bring Ultron to the Hulk. Okay, Hawkeye said that Ultron is wired into every one of his machines. IF we power up the ship so Ultron can sense it, he'll come running."
"I think that's the most words you've ever said in a row." Pym said.
"Okay, remember when I called Bruce nuts? You got him beat." Francis declared.
"I know we can do this." James said. "We can do it together."
"No! I can't!" Torunn declared before flying off.
"She'll be okay. She just needs time." James said then turned to the others. "Are you in?"
The red haired teen smiled when he saw the other give their approval.
