Pietro runs through the city and into a police station. "We're under attack. Clear the city, now." Everyone ignores him and goes back to his games. Pietro runs back in, with a large gun and shoots through the ceiling, startling them all. "Get off your asses."

"All they want is to live their lives in peace," Steve continues. Wanda uses her powers to evacuate everyone she can. "And that's not gonna happen today. But we can do our best to protect them. And we can get the job done. We find out what Ultron's been building." Thor blasts through to Strucker's lab, looking around. Bruce follows. "We find Romanoff, and we clear the field. Keep the fight between us. Ultron thinks we're monsters and we're what's wrong with the world. This isn't just about beating him. It's about whether he's right."

"Natasha!" Bruce calls, searching. "Natasha!"

"Bruce?"

"You alright?"

"Yeah."

"The teams in the city, it's about to light up."

"I don't suppose you found a key lying around somewhere?" She asks, sarcastically.

"Yeah. I did." He holds up a gun and Natasha gets behind a wall. He blasts the lock and they move the gate.

"So what's our play?"

"I'm here to get you to safety," he replies.

"Job's not finished," she states, confused.

"We can help with the evacuation, but I can't be in a fight near civilians. And you've done plenty. Our fight is over."

"So we just disappear?"

"Come on," Steve says, directing traffic.

"Your man's in the church, boss. I think he's waiting for you," Friday says. Tony lands inside, walking towards the center.

"Come to confess you sins?" Ultron asks.

"I don't know, how much time you got?"

"More than you."

Ultron reveals himself and Tony is nervous, hiding it with sarcasm. "Uh, have you been juicing? A little vibranium cocktail? You're looking, I don't want to say, puffy."

"You're stalling to protect the people."

"Well, that is the mission. Did you forget?"

"I've moved beyond your mission. I'm free." A pedestal rises into the center of the church with a handle like button on top. "What? You think you're the only one stalling?" he asks.

"There's the rest of the Vibranium. Function: still unclear," Friday states.

"This is how you end, Tony. This is peace in my time." Robots crawl from the earth in rivers, houses and parks. People run away, terrified, trying to get away.

"Go!" Steve shouts.

Clint shoots his arrows at anything coming near him as Wanda and Pietro move people. "Get off the bridge," she calls. Wanda uses her powers to create a field in front of the civilians. "Run!" she tells them. As they get away, the shield falls and Wanda is hit with a shot.

"Ultron," Vision says, getting his attention.

"My Vision. They really did take everything from me," Ultron says. He flies up and they meet in the middle.

"You set the terms, you can change the."

"Alright." Ultron grabs Vision but Vision infiltrates his mind, cutting off his access to the internet.
