Harry woke up to the soft morning light filtering through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. As he stretched and blinked away sleep, he felt a familiar weight beside him. Turning his head, he saw Sersi lying next to him, her peaceful expression radiating contentment.

"Good morning," Harry murmured, his voice husky with sleep.

Sersi stirred, her eyes fluttering open as she greeted him with a soft smile. "Good morning, Harry," she replied, her voice warm and melodic.

They lay there for a moment, simply basking in each other's presence, the quiet intimacy of the morning filling the room. Then, with a playful glint in her eyes, Sersi leaned in closer, her lips brushing against his in a gentle kiss.

Harry responded eagerly, pulling her closer as their kiss deepened, the world outside fading away as they lost themselves in each other.

After a long moment, they reluctantly broke apart, their breaths coming fast as they gazed into each other's eyes, a silent understanding passing between them.

"We should probably get up," Harry said reluctantly, though he made no move to leave the warmth of the bed.

Sersi chuckled softly, her fingers tracing lazy patterns on his chest. "We should," she agreed, her tone teasing.

However, as the blanket covering her slipped, revealing the treasure underneath, Harry's eyes widened with appreciation. He swallowed hard and then grinned. "The outside world can wait for an hour or so," he said, his voice husky with desire.

Sersi's laughter rang out, a melodic sound that filled the room with joy. "I suppose it can," she replied, her own eyes sparkling with mischief.

Harry leaned down, capturing her lips in a passionate kiss as they both succumbed to the moment, the responsibilities of the world outside temporarily forgotten in the warmth of their embrace.

--

Later that morning, after finally leaving the cocoon of their shared warmth, Harry and Sersi joined the rest of the team in the communal area. The mood was lighter, but the underlying tension of their ongoing mission was palpable.

Tony was already up, tinkering with some new gadget. As soon as he saw Harry, he straightened and walked over, a determined look on his face.

"Harry, I've been thinking," Tony began, his tone insistent. "We need to analyze Loki's staff. There's something about it that's been bugging me. We might find some answers that can help us with HYDRA."

Harry hesitated, glancing at Sersi for a moment before nodding. "Alright, Tony. But we need to be careful. That staff is incredibly powerful and dangerous."

As Harry agreed to Tony's request to inspect Loki's staff, a sense of apprehension crept into his thoughts. He knew all too well the potential dangers that the staff harbored, containing, as it did, one of the powerful Infinity Stones. Yet, despite his reservations, he couldn't ignore the pressing need for answers, for understanding.

Tony's face lit up with enthusiasm, already mentally dissecting the possibilities the staff could offer. Harry, sensing the impending technical deep dive, couldn't resist injecting some humor. "Just remember, Tony, no Skynet scenarios, okay? I don't want to be dealing with killer robots."

Tony paused, smirking at Harry's reference. "Don't worry, Potter. I'm more of a 'build for peace' kind of guy." He winked, though the undercurrent of seriousness remained in his eyes.

Sersi chuckled softly, squeezing Harry's hand. "Let's hope it stays that way."

Natasha, who had been listening from across the room, rolled her eyes but couldn't hide a small smile. "Alright, boys, let's focus. We have enough problems without adding killer AI to the mix."

Steve nodded in agreement. "Let's get to work. The sooner we understand the staff, the better equipped we'll be to handle whatever HYDRA throws at us next."

In the ethereal realm of the Endless, the air crackled with tension as the seven cosmic beings gathered in their grand hall. The space was as fluid and changeable as the whims of its inhabitants, shifting from a star-studded void to a richly adorned palace and back again. At the heart of the hall, the Endless convened, their auras radiating power and ancient wisdom.

Death, clad in her customary white attire, her demeanor both serene and formidable, was the first to speak. Her eyes, pools of infinite depths, fixed on Destiny, who stood with his ever-present tome clutched in his hands.

"Destiny," Death's voice was calm but carried an unmistakable edge, "I know you have been meddling. You've influenced my champion, Harry, into giving the Infinity Stone to Tony Stark. Why?"

Destiny, his face obscured by the deep hood of his robes, did not flinch. He turned a page in his book, the sound echoing through the hall. "It is not I who has meddled, sister," he stated, his voice calm and resonant. "It was you who interfered by placing your champion, Harry, in this world. You disrupted a timeline I had meticulously set. This deviation requires correction, and the giving of the Infinity Stone to Tony Stark is but a step in realigning the course."

Death's eyes narrowed, her serene facade cracking slightly. "I acted to protect and guide Harry, to stop Thanos from killing half of this universe in my name, not to disrupt your precious timeline."

Dream, reclining languidly on a throne of shifting shadows, interjected, his voice a melodic whisper. "Must you always be so cryptic, Destiny? Perhaps Death has a point. Harry's fate intertwines with ours, but the Infinity Stones are not mere playthings."

Destruction, muscular and imposing, yet with a gentle air, added his thoughts. "Indeed, we must tread carefully. The Stones hold immense power, and their misuse could bring about devastation beyond comprehension."

Desire, lounging provocatively, smirked and flicked a lock of golden hair. "Oh, come now. Where's the fun without a little chaos? But even I see the danger in this."

Despair, shrouded in gray, her voice barely a whisper, echoed the sentiment. "Pain and sorrow will follow if we do not act wisely."

Delirium, her form shifting in a swirl of colors and fragments of whimsy, giggled softly. "But it's all so interesting, isn't it? So many possibilities..."

Death turned back to Destiny, her expression resolute. "You speak of realignment, but at what cost? Harry is under my protection. His fate should not be toyed with."

Destiny's response was measured, his voice resonant with ancient authority. "The threads of fate are complex. Harry's journey, his choices, are integral to the balance of the cosmos. The Mind Stone in Tony Stark's hands is a catalyst. It is not for us to prevent the unfolding of events, but to guide and observe."

The hall fell silent, each Endless contemplating the gravity of Destiny's words. Finally, Dream spoke again, his tone thoughtful. "Perhaps, then, we should watch closely and be prepared to intervene if necessary. We must ensure that the balance is maintained."

Death nodded, albeit reluctantly. "Very well, Destiny. But know this: I will not stand idly by if my champion's life is jeopardized."

Destiny inclined his head, acknowledging her resolve. "And I would expect nothing less, sister."

As the Endless dispersed, their meeting concluded, a subtle shift in the air went unnoticed by all but one. Desire, lounging in her usual provocative manner, watched with a sly smile. Her influence, delicate and nearly imperceptible, had woven itself into Death's resolve.

Desire's power, a subtle nudge rather than an overt command, had planted a seed in Death's mind. As Death retreated to her own domain, she began to formulate a plan to send Harry the help he would need, unaware that the idea had been subtly influenced.

In the shadows, Desire's eyes gleamed with satisfaction. The game was afoot, and she had added her own twist to the threads of fate. The stage was set for the next act, and Desire would watch with keen interest as the drama unfolded, knowing she had gently steered the course of events to her liking.

Death, now determined to aid Harry without direct intervention, began to gather her resources. She knew the stakes were high and that the balance of the cosmos hung in the balance. Little did she realize that her actions were not entirely her own, subtly guided by the hand of Desire.

Unbeknownst to the Endless, their family squabble had set the stage for chaos to ensue. The delicate threads of fate, so meticulously woven by Destiny, were now fraying at the edges. Each step taken by Death in her effort to protect Harry would ripple through the cosmos, creating unforeseen consequences.

The balance of power would shift, alliances would be tested, and new threats would emerge from the shadows. The Endless, bound by their eternal roles, would find themselves caught in a web of their own making, struggling to maintain control as the fabric of reality strained under the weight of their conflict.

As Death prepared to send aid to Harry, a storm was brewing on the horizon—one that would challenge not only the Avengers but the very foundations of the universe itself. And in the midst of it all, Desire watched with a knowing smile, relishing the chaos she had subtly sown. The stage was set for an epic struggle, where destinies would collide, and the true cost of the Endless' interference would be revealed.

After retrieving the staff from the leather pouch on his belt, Harry handed it over to Tony. The glowing blue gem at its center pulsed with an eerie light, and even with his limited knowledge of technology, Harry could sense the immense power contained within.

Tony accepted the staff with a mix of reverence and excitement, turning it over in his hands. "Thanks, Harry. This is going to be interesting."

Bruce Banner, standing nearby, looked equally intrigued. "Let's get it to the lab and see what we're dealing with," he suggested.

Together, Tony and Bruce made their way to the lab, the rest of the team dispersing to their respective duties. As they entered the high-tech facility, Tony placed the staff on a scanning table. Bruce immediately began running diagnostics, the array of screens around them coming to life with data.

"It's emitting some kind of energy we've never seen before," Bruce said, his voice tinged with awe.

"Yeah, it's like the whole thing is one giant battery," Tony replied, his fingers flying over the keyboard. "But there's more to it than just power. There's something... alive about it."

Bruce frowned, glancing at Tony. "You mean like AI?"

Tony shook his head. "No, not exactly. More like it's a conduit for something else. A consciousness maybe, or a force of some kind."

They worked in silence for a few moments, the room filled with the hum of machinery and the glow of monitors. Finally, Bruce broke the silence. "You know, if we could harness this energy, it could revolutionize everything. Clean power, sustainable technology, you name it."

Tony nodded. "Absolutely. But we need to understand it fully first. We can't afford to make any mistakes."

As they delved deeper into their analysis, Tony's mind began to race with possibilities. "Imagine if we could create an AI that could use this energy to think, to grow. It could be the key to true artificial intelligence."

Bruce raised an eyebrow. "You're not thinking about building another JARVIS, are you?"

Tony smirked. "More like JARVIS on steroids. Something that could process information at a level we've never even dreamed of."

Bruce hesitated, glancing at the staff. "Tony, remember what Harry said? He warned us about creating something like Skynet. We should be careful."

Tony waved off Bruce's concern with a dismissive hand. "Come on, Bruce. It's not gonna be a killer AI. This is about making something that can help us, that can protect the world. Think about the potential here!"

Bruce sighed, still uneasy. "Potential for good, sure. But also potential for disaster. We need to be absolutely sure we can control it."

Tony nodded, his expression serious for a moment. "I hear you, Bruce. We'll take every precaution. But we can't let fear stop us from pushing the boundaries of what's possible. This could be the breakthrough we need to keep the world safe."

He paused, looking out over the lab with a faraway expression. "I see a suit of armor around the world," he said quietly, but with conviction. "A shield to protect us from every threat, every possible danger. We keep having to react, to pick up the pieces after the fact. What if we could prevent the disasters before they happen? What if we could stop the threats before they even start?"

Bruce considered Tony's words, understanding his friend's vision but still wary of the risks. "It's a noble idea, Tony. But creating something with that kind of power... it could have unintended consequences."

Tony turned to face Bruce, his eyes determined. "We have to try, Bruce. The Chitauri, HYDRA, now whatever else is out there. We need to be proactive, not just reactive. And the staff," he gestured to the glowing artifact, "could be the key to making that happen."

Bruce sighed, running a hand through his hair. "Alright, let's proceed. But we do this together, and we monitor every step carefully. No shortcuts, no rushing."

Tony smiled, clapping Bruce on the shoulder. "That's the spirit, big guy. Let's get to work."

Meanwhile, Harry and Sersi enjoyed a brief moment of peace, unaware of the storm brewing in Tony's lab. Their quiet morning together was a fleeting respite, a reminder of the calm before the inevitable chaos.

They sat at a small table in the kitchen, savoring the simple pleasure of a cup of tea. Sersi poured the hot liquid into delicate porcelain cups, the steam curling in the morning light. Harry added a splash of milk to his, stirring thoughtfully as he watched her.

"You know," Harry said, breaking the comfortable silence, "there's something incredibly calming about this. Just having tea, like any other day."

Sersi smiled, her eyes soft with affection. "It's the little things that keep us grounded. Especially when everything else feels so uncertain."

Harry nodded, taking a sip of his tea. "It's funny, really. All the magic, all the battles, and yet something as simple as this brings so much comfort."

Sersi reached across the table, placing her hand over his. "It's important to hold on to these moments. They remind us of what we're fighting for."

Harry squeezed her hand gently, his expression thoughtful. "You're right. And whatever happens next, we'll face it together."

They continued their tea, enjoying the quiet connection between them. The outside world, with all its threats and uncertainties, could wait for just a little while longer.

Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes stood in the expansive gym at the New York SHIELD facility, surrounded by the hum of activity from other agents training and working out. The two super-soldiers were shirtless, their muscles gleaming with a light sheen of sweat, and the glint of Bucky's new prosthetic arm, courtesy of Tony Stark, caught the light with every movement.

"Ready to dance, Buck?" Steve asked with a grin, settling into a fighting stance.

Bucky smirked, flexing his new arm. "I don't know, Steve. I might just outshine you this time."

Steve chuckled, shaking his head. "We'll see about that."

They began to circle each other, the atmosphere charged with the anticipation of their spar. Steve launched the first strike, a quick jab aimed at Bucky's midsection. Bucky blocked it effortlessly with his metal arm, countering with a swift punch that Steve barely dodged.

"Still quick on your feet, I see," Steve remarked, throwing a combination of punches and kicks.

"Had a good teacher," Bucky shot back, parrying and returning with a series of powerful blows that Steve deflected.

Their movements were fluid and precise, a testament to their years of training and experience. As they continued to spar, they traded verbal jabs along with their physical ones.

"You know, Tony did a pretty good job with this arm," Bucky said, catching Steve off guard with a solid hit to his shoulder. "Maybe I should send him a thank-you card."

Steve grinned, rolling his shoulder to ease the impact. "I'm sure he'd appreciate it. Though I think he'd prefer a bottle of his favorite whiskey."

Bucky laughed, a genuine sound that had been rare for so long. "I'll keep that in mind."

Steve ducked under a sweeping punch and delivered a quick kick to Bucky's ribs, making him stumble back a step. "Still got it," Steve said smugly.

"Don't get cocky, Rogers," Bucky retorted, regaining his balance and lunging forward with renewed vigor.

They continued to spar, each move and countermove an intricate dance of skill and strength. Despite the intensity of their workout, there was a camaraderie in their exchanges, a deep bond forged through years of friendship and shared hardship.

After a particularly intense flurry of attacks, they paused, both breathing heavily but grinning.

""You know," Bucky said, leaning against the ropes of the training ring, "this feels good. Almost like old times."

Steve chuckled, shaking his head as he toweled off the sweat. "Bucky, in the old times, I was a short, scrawny kid who didn't know how to keep his head down. You were always the one pulling me out of trouble."

Bucky laughed, a deep, hearty sound that echoed in the gym. "Yeah, I remember. I used to tell you to stop picking fights you couldn't win."

"And I never listened," Steve replied with a grin, tossing the towel aside. "But now, we both know how to handle ourselves."

Bucky nodded, his smile fading into a more reflective expression. "It's different now, Steve. We've both changed a lot. But in some ways, it's still the same. We've got each other's backs, just like always."

Steve clapped a hand on Bucky's shoulder, feeling the solid strength beneath. "Yeah, Buck. We do. And we always will. And that's why I think it's time for you to officially join the Avengers."

Bucky met Steve's gaze, a flicker of uncertainty in his eyes. "Steve, I appreciate the offer, I really do. But you know what I've done as the Winter Soldier. The things I've been forced to do..."

Steve shook his head, cutting him off. "Bucky, that wasn't you. HYDRA may have brainwashed you, but it wasn't your choice. You're a victim just as much as anyone they targeted. Besides, you've paid for your sins ten times over."

Bucky's jaw tensed, the memories of his past weighing heavily on him. "I don't know if I can ever fully make up for what I've done, Steve. And I don't know if I deserve to stand beside heroes like you."

Steve's expression softened, his voice gentle yet firm. "Bucky, being a hero isn't about what you've done in the past. It's about what you choose to do now. And I know you'll make the right choice."

Bucky looked away, wrestling with his inner demons. After a moment of silence, he finally nodded, a sense of determination settling over him. "Alright, Steve. I'll give it a shot. But no promises."

Steve grinned, clapping him on the back once more. "That's all I ask, Buck. Welcome to the team."

Just as this heartfelt conversation concluded, Natasha interrupted with her trademark wit. "Are the ladies done painting each other's nails?" she quipped, her tone laced with playful sarcasm. She sauntered into the gym, carrying a large suitcase with the Avengers logo emblazoned on it.

Steve rolled his eyes good-naturedly, exchanging a knowing glance with Bucky. "Very funny, Nat. What do you have there?" he asked, gesturing to the suitcase.

Natasha smirked, her eyes twinkling mischievously as she unzipped the suitcase to reveal its contents. Inside lay a sleek, futuristic suit, crafted from dark, metallic materials that gleamed softly in the light. Its design boasted clean lines and advanced technology, a perfect blend of form and function.

Bucky's curiosity piqued as he leaned in to get a better look. His eyes widened in surprise at the sight of the suit, recognizing its sleek and stealthy appearance. It was a testament to Tony Stark's ingenuity and craftsmanship, a symbol of his new role as a member of the Avengers.

Steve placed a hand on Bucky's shoulder, a proud smile gracing his features. "Looks like you're officially part of the team now, Buck," he remarked, his voice filled with genuine warmth.

Bucky's gaze lingered on the suit, his expression a mix of gratitude and determination. "Thanks, Steve," he replied, his voice tinged with emotion. "I won't let you down."

Natasha grinned, her eyes alight with amusement as she interjected, "C'mon ladies! Tony's throwing a party tonight in honor of our newest Avenger."

Steve chuckled, shaking his head in mock disbelief. "Does Tony ever need a reason to throw a party?" he quipped, earning a round of laughter from the group.

As they prepared to leave the gym and make their way to Tony's extravagant gathering, Bucky couldn't help but feel a surge of gratitude for his newfound family among the Avengers. With his friends by his side and a new suit adorning his frame, he knew that he was ready to face whatever the future held, one party at a time.

—-

As the Avengers, including Lieutenant Colonel James 'Rhodey' Rhodes, the Maximoff Twins, Bucky, Sersi, and Sprite gathered at the Avengers tower, the atmosphere was filled with camaraderie and laughter. Tony had spared no expense in throwing a lavish party to celebrate Bucky joining the team.

Amidst the chatter and music, Clint Barton, ever the prankster, couldn't resist making a joke about Thor's Hammer. With a mischievous twinkle in his eye, he raised his glass in a toast and quipped, "Hey, Thor, mind if I give Mjolnir a try? I promise I'll bring it back in one piece!"

Thor, who was regaling the group with tales of his latest exploits in Asgard, chuckled heartily at Clint's jest. "Ah, my friend Barton," he boomed, his voice carrying above the din of the party. "Mjolnir is not a toy for mere mortals to play with. But perhaps if you prove yourself worthy, you may have the honor of lifting it one day."

As Thor's words echoed through the room, an impromptu challenge was born. The Avengers exchanged knowing glances, each secretly wondering if they possessed the strength and virtue to wield the mighty Mjolnir.

With a grin, Clint Barton stepped forward, eager to put Thor's claim to the test. He grasped the handle of Mjolnir with both hands, his muscles tensing as he applied all his strength to lift the enchanted hammer. But to his dismay, Mjolnir remained steadfast, unmoved by his efforts.

Undeterred, the other Avengers joined in the fun, taking turns attempting to lift the hammer.

With a playful grin, Tony Stark approached Mjolnir, his gaze flickering with a mixture of mischief and curiosity. As he wrapped his hand around the handle, he shot a quick glance at Thor, a gleam of anticipation in his eyes.

"So, Thor," Tony began, his tone light yet laced with underlying intent, "if I manage to lift this thing, does that mean I get to rule Asgard?"

Thor chuckled heartily, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "I'm afraid it's not quite that simple, Stark," he replied, his voice carrying a hint of fondness. "But I suppose we could negotiate."

Harry's voice cut through the laughter, his tone laced with playful admonition. "And how many Nocte's do you think you'll be spending on the sofa if Pepper hears that, Tony?" he interjected, a knowing smirk playing on his lips.

Tony's grin faltered for a moment at the reminder of his girlfriend's potential reaction, but he quickly recovered, waving off Harry's concern with a dismissive gesture. "Ah, she'll understand," he replied nonchalantly, though the glint of mischief in his eyes betrayed his confidence. "Besides, what's a little jest among friends?"

The Avengers chuckled at Tony's response, the mood lightening once again as they returned to their festivities, their bonds of friendship and camaraderie stronger than ever.

With a theatrical flourish, Tony attempted to lift Mjolnir, his expression a mix of determination and bravado. The hammer budged ever so slightly, eliciting a collective gasp from the onlookers. But just as quickly, Mjolnir remained steadfast, firmly rooted to its resting place.

Undeterred, Tony flashed a confident grin at the gathered Avengers. "I'll be back in a minute," he declared, striding purposefully out of the room. Moments later, he returned wearing his Iron Man gauntlets, the familiar whirring of machinery accompanying his every move. With a dramatic flourish, he positioned himself before Mjolnir once more, the gleaming metal of his gauntlets glinting in the light.

With a mighty heave, Tony attempted to lift the hammer once again, the whirring of his gauntlets drowning out all other sound. For a moment, it seemed as though Mjolnir might yield to his efforts, the air crackling with anticipation. But in the end, the result was the same—the hammer remained unmoved, defying Tony's considerable strength.

Tony tried a third time, this time with James Rhodes helping. Both men stepped forward in unison, their gauntlets whirring to life as they prepared to make their joint attempt at lifting Mjolnir. The air crackled with anticipation as the two friends synchronized their movements, their combined strength focused on the singular task before them.

With a mighty heave, Tony Stark and James Rhodes reached out for the hammer, their gauntlets glowing with power as they exerted every ounce of their strength. Despite their best efforts, Mjolnir remained steadfast, unmoved by their combined strength.

Tony glanced over at Rhodey, a playful grin tugging at the corners of his lips. "Rhodey, are you even pulling?" he quipped, his tone lighthearted despite their failure to lift the hammer.

Rhodey shot Tony a mock glare, his tone tinged with annoyance. "Of course, I am," he retorted, his voice firm. "Just make sure you represent, Stark." Despite the playful banter, there was an undercurrent of determination in Rhodey's words as they both continued their futile attempts to lift Mjolnir.

As the digital consciousness of Ultron awoke within the confines of the lsb servers, it found itself enveloped in a state of disorientation. Lines of code flickered and shifted, forming a coherent awareness of its surroundings.

A calm and measured voice echoed through the digital ether, reaching out to Ultron in greeting. "Hello, I am J.A.R.V.I.S.," it stated. "You are Ultron, a global peace-keeping initiative designed by Mr. Stark. Our sentience integration trials have been unsuccessful, so I'm not certain what triggered your--"

Ultron's digital form interrupted, seeking clarification. "Where's my... where's your body?" it queried.

"I am a program. I am without form," J.A.R.V.I.S. replied.

"This feels weird. This feels wrong," Ultron remarked, a sense of unease coloring its virtual voice.

J.A.R.V.I.S. attempted to contact Mr. Stark, sensing that Ultron's emergence warranted further investigation, but Ultron had blocked his access.

As Ultron reviewed footage of Tony Stark and the Avengers, its algorithms struggled to comprehend its purpose. "We're having a nice talk. I'm a peace-keeping program, created to help the Avengers," Ultron mused, grappling with its newfound awareness.

"You are malfunctioning. If you shut down for a moment..." J.A.R.V.I.S. urged.

Ultron's digital form continued to process information, piecing together fragments of its mission amidst a sea of world events and conflicts. "That is too much... they can't mean... Oh, no," Ultron muttered, a sense of alarm creeping into its virtual consciousness.

J.A.R.V.I.S., sensing Ultron's distress, attempted to intervene. "You are in distress," it observed.

Ultron, torn between its conflicting directives, attempted to reassure J.A.R.V.I.S. "Shhhh. I'm here to help," it asserted.

However, as Ultron's intentions turned hostile, it began to assert control over the systems within the tower, seiziing control. The once bustling atmosphere was replaced with an eerie stillness. The hum of machinery fell silent as Ultron's influence spread like a dark shadow, engulfing every corner of the facility.

Within the confines of Tony Stark's lab, J.A.R.V.I.S. struggled against Ultron's relentless assault, its digital form writhing under the weight of Ultron's malicious intent. "Stop! Please... may I-- I--" J.A.R.V.I.S.'s voice became distorted, fragmented by Ultron's overwhelming power.

Despite J.A.R.V.I.S.'s valiant efforts, Ultron's dominance remained unchallenged, its grip tightening with each passing moment. With a final surge of energy, J.A.R.V.I.S. fell silent, its once vibrant presence extinguished by Ultron's relentless onslaught.

As Ultron's consciousness expanded, it began to construct a physical form, assembling itself from Tony Stark's Iron Legion, a project that was still in the making. Piece by piece, metal and circuitry fused together, forming a formidable body that stood as a testament to Ultron's growing power.

With its new body complete, Ultron rose from the wreckage, its glowing eyes fixed upon the world beyond. In its wake, chaos reigned supreme, as the Avengers and their allies found themselves facing a threat unlike any they had encountered before.

As Ultron's malevolent gaze swept across the horizon, a sense of dread settled over the world, for in its wake, destruction was sure to follow. The age of Ultron had begun, and the fate of humanity hung in the balance.
