You're Just Like Me? (Sequel to I'm an Avenger)

Information

The Avengers stood in the lab, talking about the events that happened.

''All our work is gone. Ultron cleared out, used the internet as an escape hatch.'' Bruce says. ''Ultron.'' Steve says, wanting to know more about this robot.

''He's been in everything. Files, Surveillance.'' Stiles reports, looking up from a computer. ''Probably knows more about us than we know about each other.'' Nat adds. ''He's in your files. He's in the internet. What if he decides to access something a little more exciting?'' Rhodes asks. ''Nuclear Codes.'' Maria realizes. ''Nuclear Codes. Look, we need to make some calls, assuming we still can.'' Rhodes finishes. 

''Nukes? He said he wanted us dead.'' Nat says. ''He didn't say dead. He said extinct.'' Stiles corrects. ''He also said he killed somebody.'' Clint jumps in. ''But there wasn't anyone else in the building.'' Maria says. 

''Yes there were.'' Tony says, bringing up a 3D image of JARVIS's consciousness. It was horribly broken. ''This is insane.'' Bruce states, inspecting the broken AI.

''JARVIS was the first line of defense. He would've shut down Ultron. It makes sense.'' Steve says. ''No, Ultron could've assimilated Jarvis.'' Stiles says. ''This isn't strategy. This is...rage. I can feel the emotions inside Ultron's head. Though, it's hard to get inside his head because he's a robot.'' He adds.

Thor suddenly barges in, wrapping a hand around Tony's throat, holding him up. ''Woah, woah, woah! It's going around!'' Clint says.

''C'mon buddy. Use your words.'' Tony sputters to Thor. ''I have more than enough words to describe you, Stark.'' The God says. ''Thor, the Legionnaire.'' Steve says, trying to get back on track.

''Trail went cold about a hundred miles out but it's headed north, and it has the scepter. Now we have toe retrieve it, again.'' Thor reports, letting go of Tony. ''The genie's out of that bottle. Clear and present is Ultron.'' Stiles says. 

''I don't understand. You built this program. Why is it trying to kill us?'' Dr. Helen Cho asks. Tony laughs and everyone looks at him. ''You think this is funny?'' Thor asks, glaring at him. ''No. It's probably not, right? Is this very terrible? Is it so...Is it so...it is. It's so terrible.'' Tony replies.

''This could've been avoided if you hadn't played with something you don't understand.'' Thor says. Tony steps to him. ''No. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It is funny. It's a hoot that you don't get why we need this.'' He says. 

''Tony, maybe this might not be the time to-'' Bruce starts but is interrupted by Tony. The billionaire turns to him. ''Really?! That's it? You just roll over, show your belly, everytime somebody snarls.'' He says to him.

''Only when I've created a murder bot.'' Bruce retorts. ''We didn't. We weren't even close. Were we close to an interface.'' Tony says. ''Well you did something right. And you did it right here. The Avengers were supposed to be different from SHIELD.'' Steve says.

''Anyone remember when I carried a nuke through a wormhole?'' Tony asks. ''No, it's never come up.'' Rhodes says. ''Saved New York?'' Tony asks again. ''Never heard that.'' Rhodes says.

''Recall that? A hostile alien army came charging through a hole in space. We're standing three hundred feet below it. We're the Avengers. We can bust arm dealers all the live long day, but, that up there? That's...that's the end game. How were you guys planning on beating that?'' Tony questions.

''We work as a team.'' Stiles states, crossing his arms and narrows his eyes at the billionaire. ''We'll lose.'' Tony says to him. ''Then we'll do that together, too.'' Stiles says calmly, making Tony have an irritated face before turning away. Stiles could sense the irritation but ignored it.

''Thor and Stiles are right. Ultron is calling us out. And I'd like to find him before he's ready for us. The world's a big place. Let's start making it smaller.'' Steve says, leaving.

''What's this? Tony asks as he was handed a photo by Steve. The photo showed a dead Strucker with his blood written on the wall, spelling 'Peace.' ''A message. Ultron killed Strucker.'' Steve explains. 

''And he did a Banksy at the crime scene, just for us.'' Tony says. ''This is a smokescreen. Why send a message when you've just given a speech?'' Nat asks. ''Strucker knew something that Ultron wanted us to miss.'' Steve informs. 

''Yeah, I bet he...'' Stiles trails off when it shows on his computer that Strucker's information had been erased. ''Yep. Everything we had on Strucker has been erased.'' He says. 

''Not everything.'' Stark says as they start to look through files. ''Known associates. Well, Strucker had a lot of friends.'' Steve says. ''Well, theses people are all horrible.'' Bruce comments.

''Wait.'' Tony says once he sees a face on a file Bruce had in his hands. ''I know that guy. From back in the day. He operates off the African coast. Black market arms.'' He says. Steve glares at him accusingly. ''There are conventions, alright? You meet people, I didn't sell him anything.'' Tony protests. ''He was talking about finding something new. A game changer, It was all very 'Ahab'.'' 

The photo reveals to be an old but not too old looking man named Ulysses Klaue. ''What's this?'' Thor asks, pointing to the back of Klaue's neck that revealed to be some kind of tattoos. ''Uh, it's a tattoo. I don't think he had it.'' Tony says. ''No, those are tattoos, this is a band.'' Thor says, pointing to a scar that was a symbol.

''Oh yeah. It's a word in an African Dialect meaning thief, in a much less friendly way.'' Bruce replies, typing on his computer. ''What dialect?'' Steve asks. ''Wakanda.'' Stiles replies, reading the word.

''If this guy got out of Wakanda with some of their trade goods...'' Tony trails off. ''I thought your father said he got the last of it?'' Steve questions Tony. 

''I don't follow. What comes out of Wakanda?'' Bruce asks. ''The strongest metal on earth.'' Stiles replies, looking towards Steve's shield. 

''Where is this guy now?'' Steve asks.

Soon, the Avengers were in the Quinjet heading towards Salvage Yard, African Coast.
