The man who was standing before them looked around the room like he had no idea who they were or where he was. Everyone was quiet as they observed him, not knowing what to do first or if they should move.

But the man made the first move, flying towards Thor who easily tossed him through the glass doors and sent him flying through the other room. Everyone followed after him thinking that they were about to face another monster Tony had created.

But Thor set down his hammer and gestured for everyone not to attack as the man floated down and stood in the center of the room.

"I am sorry. That was...odd" he said, looking at Thor. "Thank you."

He was able to create a sort of suit for himself, a cape appearing out of thin air and hanging down his back.

"Thor. You helped create this?" Steve asked.

"I've had a vision. A whirlpool that sucks in all hope of life and at its center is that" Thor said, pointing to the gem on its forehead. "It's the mind stone. It's one of the six Infinity Stones. The greatest power in the universe, unparalleled in its destructive capabilities."

"Then bringing this to life sounds like a really bad idea," Daphne said.

"No. Stark is right" Thor said.

"Oh, it's definitely the end times" Banner mumbled.

"The Avengers cannot defeat Ultron," Thor said.

"Not alone," the man said.

"Why does it sound like Jarvis?" Daphne asked.

"We reconfigured Jarvis's matrix to create something new," Tony said.

"I think I've had my fill of new" Steve sighed.

"You think I'm a child of Ultron," Vision said.

"You're not?" Steve asked.

"I'm not Ultron. I am not Jarvis. I am...I am" Vision said.

"How profound" Daphne mumbled.

"I looked in your head and saw annihilation," Wanda said.

"Look again," Vision told her.

Clint scoffed. "Her seal of approval means jack to me."

"Their powers, the horrors in our heads, Ultron himself, they all came from the mind stone. And they're nothing compared to what it can unleash. But with it on our side..." Thor trailed off.

"Is it?" Steve asked. "Are you? On our side."

"I don't think it's that simple" Vision said.

"Well it better get real simple real soon," Clint said.

"I am on the side of life. Ultron isn't. He will end it all" Vision said.

"What's he waiting for?" Tony asked.
