We ran far away from the lab, into the middle of the town market. We got some odd looks but it was better than being Ultron's prisoners.

"You need some new clothes." It was only then that I realized that I still had on the filthy, torn outfit I'd been wearing when I was first captured in DC. We quickly found a clothing store and I ran in to find myself some new clothes. I went with something similar to what Wanda was wearing, black leather but instead of red, I made patches of green in the black velvet pants, leather jacket, and made cotton shirt turn hunter green. Loki's green. I also picked up a golden-chained necklace with several charms and several rings, much like Wanda's, as well as knee high boots. Since I had changed what most of the things looked like, removing the tags and just walking out was easy.

The three of us didn't have to go far until we saw something that caught our attention, it was a TV displaying breaking news. The breaking news of Captain America fighting Ultron hand-to-hand on top of a truck from the lab on a high speed road.

"Now is our chance. I crushed the pen so they don't know where I am anymore. We don't have to help them, but we still can. Are you with me?"

"I thought you had a grudge against them for abandoning you."

"Yeah, but it's either side with them temporarily or risk global destruction. And don't worry, I'll pick that bone with them as soon as this is all over." That seemed to satisfy them and we sped off in search of the battle. With me searching from the sky, I found the road easily, just in time to see the supersoldier and the robot go flying into a moving train and then Nat hopping into the open back of the truck off a motorcycle. I hurried back to Wanda and Pietro and then proceeded to lead them to the train on foot. With our superior speed, it was easy to catch up with the vehicle and go in the gaping hole in the side. Just in time too, Ultron was about to beat Cap out a new hole, one about the size of a door. Pietro barrelled into Ultron, giving Steve the few seconds he needed to recover, then Wanda used her powers to bring the racks above the seats down in front of him, forming an 'X'.

"Mira?" I refused to look at him

"Please, don't do this."

"What choice do we have?"

"Oh, that's right. None." Ultron took a shot a Pietro, who managed to dodge, but then something else happened. Smoke came from the front of the train and Ultron fled.

"I lost him! He's headed your way!" Steve joined me in the front, next to the dead driver. The control panel had also been fried, making it impossible to stop the train manually, and we were rapidly approaching the end of the line. I am only a moment to brace for impact before we hit it.

"If you have the package, get it to Stark!" Steve shouted to someone over coms, "GO!"

"Civilians in our path. Can you stop this thing?" Pietro sped off with a clone that I created.

"Not alone." Wanda replied.

"Together, perhaps."

"One, two..."

"Three!" The train went through a brick wall like nothing and we combined our powers, Wanda locking the brakes and me stopping the rotations of the wheels. At the same time, Pietro and I were zig-zagging in front of the train, moving everyone who was either too slow or stunned by the disaster. Metal screamed as we forced the train to a stop, and I could feel a liquid start to drip from my ears. Blood. But we had succeeded. The train had stopped with few injured and zero casualties. Smoke was coming off the wheels and brakes as all the passengers disembarked and the three of us met Pietro and my clone, who were panting and leaning against a fruit stall.
