Part III

Chapter 2:

Farwell Party?

Evyn sat at the bar taking sips of her drink, looking at the crowd of people with a small frown on her face. She sighed and took a long sip, and placed the cup down. Licking her lips, she called for another.

"Ah! We have things in common." Tony smiled noticing the 4 glasses surrounding Evyn. "Are you planning on consuming my whole bar?"

"I'm sure you have some hiding." Evyn smiled taking the 5th glass. "Besides. I don't enjoy the cheap shit that I get from shady bars."

"Drinking so much, isn't good for you mortals." Thor hummed taking a sip of his own drink looking at Evyn.

"Ah, she's not completely mortal." Tony stated looking at Thor then at Evyn. "Right?"

"That is true, but I'm still in a human body." Evyn pointed out taking another sip. "Go, enjoy the party. Mingle."

"I should say the same to you." Tony pointed out.

"I'm not big on…these parties." Evyn stated taking a sip. "Last time I was at a party like this, I had to save your sorry ass."

Tony frowned and nodded his head. "Yeah…" He turned and walked off.

"Is there…a story behind that?" Thor frowned watching Tony walk away.

"Job." Evyn stated taking another drink. "And a favor."

A few hours passed and the party started to die down. Evyn stayed in her spot at the bar, watching Natasha walk around it.

"Need a drink?' Natasha asked the half-breed.

Evyn looked at her glasses and counted each one. "If you can come up with a good one that will last. Then yes."

Natasha smirked and turned around grabbing a variation of drinks and started to mix them together. "I take it you drink a lot."

"Yeah." Evyn nodded watching the Russian woman make the drink. "A little too much but, keeps things at bay."

"Borderline alcoholic?" Natasha asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Maybe." Evyn shrugged. "Depends what you call this." She pointed at the crowd of glasses around her. "If this isn't borderline alcoholic, I don't know what is."

Natasha chuckled and pour the clear drink in a Martini glass and handed it to her. "Enjoy."

Evyn smirked and picked it up taking a small sip. She watches the Russian woman make two more of the same drink, just as Banner came by. She decided to tune out the conversation, and enjoyed her drink. She didn't know how long time passed, until Steve placed a beer bottle in front of her.

"I'm hoping you won't take any more drinks." Steve stated looking at Evyn.

Evyn shrugged her shoulders looking at the empty Martini glass. "Depends, what it is exactly." She leaned over to look at the bottle and huffed. "Yeah, not my thing."

"Good." Steve huffed walking off.

Evyn hummed, getting up and grabbing a tall glass and some whiskey.

"But it's a trick." Clint huffed from his spot on the floor in front of a couch that Evyn as taken as her seat.

Evyn smirked from her spot taking a sip of her whiskey.

"No, no, it's much more than that." Thor laughed.

"'Ah, whosoever be he worthy shall haveth the power'." Clint recited with a chuckle. "Whatever, man! It's a trick."

"Everything a god does is a trick." Evyn hummed.

"See." Clint smiled pointing at Evyn.

"But my opinions don't count since I'm a half-devil." Evyn quickly stated taking a sip of her whiskey. That earned her a glare from Clint.

Thor chuckled and held his hand out to Mjolnir. "Please, be my guest."

"Really?" Clint asked.

"Yeah." Thor nodded.

That earned a smirk from the archer. He stood up placing his drumsticks down and walked over to the Norse hammer.

"Oh this is going to be beautiful." Rhodey chuckled.

"Clint, you've had a tough week. We won't hold it against you if you can't get it up." Tony stated.

Evyn chuckled from her place on the sofa and leaned over to whisper to Hill. "Time to see his pride of being a man, vanish."

Hill bit her lip to keep herself from laughing, looking up at Evyn with a raised eyebrow.

Evyn shrugged and leaned back pulling her knees up close to her chest.

"You know; you look like a kid sitting like that." Clint stated looking at Evyn.

"Just pull the hammer." Evyn huffed.

The archer shrugged his shoulder and look over at Thor. "You know I've seen this before, right?" He reached down and grabbed the handle, pulling it up trying to lift the hammer. He gritted his teeth still trying to lift it before relaxing and looking at Thor. "I still don't know how you do it!"

"Smell the silent judgment?" Tony asked looking up at Clint.

"Please, Stark, by all means." Clint stated pointing at the Hammer.

Stark hummed and got up adjusting his jacket and made his way over to the hammer.

"Okay." Hill hummed.

"Oh no." Evyn sighed.

"Never one to shrink from an honest challenge." Tony stated looking at Clint.

"It's physics." Tony stated wrapping the wrist band around his wrist and gripping the handle with two hands. "Right, so, if I lift it, I then rule Asgard?"

"Yes, of course." Thor nodded.

"I will be re-instituting prima nocta." Tony stated getting into a good form. He then pulled on the Hammer, making no progress. He relaxed and unwrapped his wrist. "I'll be right back."

Evyn watched him run off, and come back with his armor hand. She bit her lip seeing him trying to pull it again, only for nothing to happen. She watches Rhodey get up and grab his armor hand and help Tony pull it.

"Are you even pulling?" Rhodey asked looking at Tony.

"Are you on my team?" Tony counter asks looking at Rhodey.

"Just represent. Pull." Rhodey huffed.

Next up is Banner. He walked over and started pulling hard only to pull back still screaming shaking his arms with a smile on his face. He looks around at the unimpressed faces of everyone.

Followed up is Steve, who came up with a smirk on his face.

"Go ahead, Steve. No pressure." Tony stated.

"All the pressure." Evyn hummed looking at her half empty glass.

Steve rolled up his sleeves and gripped the hammer's handle tight.

"Come on, Cap." Tony stated.

Steve began to pull, making small movement with the hammer, earning a concerned look from Thor and a curious look from Evyn. Steve relaxed and tried again only for nothing to happen. He sighed and pulled away, walking back to his seat.

"And, Widow?" Tony asked looking at Natasha.

"Oh, no, no. That's not a question I need answered." Natasha stated leaning back and taking a sip of her beer.

"Then, Evyn." Tony stated looking at the half-devil.

"Excuse me, what?" Evyn coughed pulling her cup away.

"Your turn." Tony smiled.

"Nope. Half-devil here. I don't touch things belonging to gods unless I get paid." Evyn stated and then pointed at Thor. "Besides, I don't know what reaction that hammer would have with an unholy demon touching it."

"Don't talk so low about yourself, come on." Clint huffed hitting Evyn's leg with the drum stick.

"Sadly, I would have to agree." Thor sighed. "Even though she is a daughter of a great warrior, he is still a devil, and that blood runs through her."

Evyn shrugged and took a sip of her whiskey.

Tony shrugged. "Al deference to the Man Who Wouldn't Be King, but it's rigged."

"You bet your ass." Clint chuckled.

"Steve, he said a bad language word." Hill called out pointing at Clint.

Steve let out a sigh. "Did you tell everyone about that?"

"The handle's imprinted, right? Like a security code." Tony asked ignoring Steve. "'Whosoever is carrying Thor's fingerprints', is, I think, the literal translation."

"Yes." Thor hummed standing up from his seat. "It's a very, very interesting theory. I have a simpler one." He reached over and picked up the hammer with ease and throwing it in the air and catching it. "You're all not worthy."

Everyone let out a groan at that. Evyn just smiled at the, before that smile faded into a grimace at the high pitch sound. She stood up looking around at everyone groaning and covering their ears or holding their heads.

Metal creaking got Evyn's attention, taking her gun out she watches as a metal skeleton walk over.

"Worthy…." It gasped out. "No." It stated after staring at them. "How could you be worthy? You're all killers."

"Stark." Steve said.

"Jarvis." Tony called out.

"I'm sorry, I was asleep." It stated. "Or I was a-dream."

"Reboot Legionnaire OS. We got a buggy suit." Tony muttered looking at his tablet.

"There was this terrible noise." It whined bringing its mechanical hand up to its head. "And I was tangled in…in…strings. I had to kill the other guy. He was a good guy."

"You killed someone?" Steve asked.

"Wouldn't have been my first call." It stated. "But, down in the real world, we're faced with ugly choices."

"Who sent you?" Thor questioned looking at it.

"I see a suit of armor around the world." A recording of Tony's voice came out.

"Ultron." Bruce gasped looking at Tony.

"In the flesh." The machine, Ultron, stated. "Or, no, not yet. Not this chrysalis. But I'm ready."

Evyn tilted her head to the side getting her guns ready.

"I'm on a mission." Ultron stated.

"What mission?" Natasha questioned.

"Peace in our time." Ultron stated, just as iron suites crashes through the walls.

Evyn got down on her knees and began to shoot the suits. With a frown, she took Ophion out and stabbed one of the suits. Standing up she ducked dodging another suit, and sighed.

After the fight Ultron sighed. "Well that was dramatic." It turned to look at Tony. "I'm sorry, I know you mean well. You just didn't think it through. You want to protect the world but you don't want it to change. How is humanity saved if it's not allowed to evolve?" It looks down and lifted the broken suite. "With these? These puppets" It crushed the suite's head and threw it. "There's only one path to peace. The Avengers' extinction."

Thor threw his hammer at the suite watching it crumble in parts, as he caught it. Evyn lowered her gun and sword, looking at Tony.

"I had strings….but now I'm free."

Welp, that happened.

Ultron is born now. Originally I had this chapter being super long, but I decided to cut it short because, why not. So expect the new chapter either later today or early tomorrow.

Until then, let me know what you think.

See you next time!
