Turns out, they still had dozens and dozens of files available to look at. Just not on the computer.

Hauling box after box into the room, they all began looking through the paper files that they still had in storage.

"Known associates," Steve said, pulling open one of the boxes. "Baron Strucker had a lot of friends."

"Well these people are all horrible," Banner said, flipping through the files.

"Wait. I know that guy" Tony said taking the file from him. "From back in the day. He operates off the African coast. Black market arms."

Steve looked at him, thinking that Tony used to deal in the black market. "There are conventions. All right? You meet people. I didn't sell him anything. He was talking about finding something new, a game changer. It was all very Ahab."

"This?" Thor asked, looking at the picture of the man that was in the file.

"Ah, it's a tattoo, I don't think he had it," Tony said.

"Those aren't tattoos, this is a brand," Thor said. Deciding to look up where it comes from Banner found a match in their database.

"Oh yeah, it's a word in an African dialect meaning thief. In a much less friendly way," Banner said.

"What dialect?" Daphne asked.

"Waka...wakana... Wakanda" Banner said as Daphne, Steve, and Tony immediately looked at each other.

"If this guy got out of Wakanda with some of their trade goods...." Tony trailed off.

"Howard said he got the last of it," Daphne said.

"I don't follow. What comes out of Wakanda?" Banner asked.

"The strongest metal on Earth," Tony said.

"Where is this guy now?"

Crashing threw a boat in a shipyard off the African coast was not what Daphne thought she'd be doing that day. But with the Avengers it's like every day was a new adventure.

Something they weren't expecting was for Ultron to be there, with Wanda and Pietro standing behind him.

"Don't compare me with Stark! It's a thing with me. Stark is...He's a sickness!" Ultron shouted, not noticing them behind him.

Ultron had definitely changed since they last saw him. He was no longer just random bits of metal pulled together. He had fashioned himself an actually functioning metal body. It was actually quite impressive.

"Ah, junior. "You're gonna break your old man's heart," Tony said.

"If I have to," Ultron said.

"Nobody has to break anything," Thor said.
