After leaving Wakanda with the vibranium, Ultron announced that they were heading to Seoul, South Korea to retrieve an object called the Cradle which would grant Ultron the human/robotic body he so desperately desired. Stiles managed to get his hands on an I-Pad and checked the news...and what was on the screen had him feeling way more guilt then he already was.

The Hulk had caused massive amounts of property damage. Thankfully, there where only a few civilian injuries and no casualties. "What's on your mind stiles?" Wanda asked sitting down on Stiles's side. Stiles looked at Wanda and said "Nothing Wanda, I'm fine". However, he motioned to the side of his head and Pietro, indicating he wanted to talk to them "In private". Wanda nodded and her eyes glowed red briefly forging the link.

"So what did you want to say that you didn't want Ultron to hear?" Wanda thought. "Have you seen this?" Stiles thought, indicating the news report on the I-Pad. She looked away from Stiles and didn't say anything. "Look, I know we started this alliance with Ultron to get revenge on the Avengers but these were innocent people, we are beyond lucky that no one was killed" Stiles thought.

"So what, the world needs to see the Avengers for what they really are" Pietro thought. "I know that, but what if that had been kids who lost their families, could you live with the shame that you destroyed their lives" Stiles finished. Wanda shut off the link and mulled over Stiles's words.

Sure, she wanted revenge, mostly on Tony Stark, but even she could see that there were parts of Ultron's plan that weren't adding up. For instance, what did he need all those weapons for, or the vibranium. She had a horrible feeling that Ultron was playing them like strucker tried to once do. Pietro was having similar thoughts. Stiles's words struck home within the speedster. He was really only in this for revenge but in doing so, had they become like Tony Stark? Had they themselves become weapons of mass destruction? And had they nearly succeeded in leaving thousands of children parent-less with no other family to go to. The thoughts didn't sit well with the Sokovian twins.

Barton Farmhouse

Clint landed the jet near his farmhouse and introduced his teammates to his wife and kids. Still shaking from the effects of Wanda's visions, the team tried different ways to distract themselves from the thoughts of their inner demons. Thor was shaken from the visions and had taken off to get answers. Natasha and Banner went to freshen up while Steve and Tony went to chop up firewood while jamie sat there not once saying anything even towards his brother which worried steve.

"Thor didn't say where he was going for answers?" Tony asked Steve. "Sometimes members of my team don't tell me things" Steve answered looking at Clint who was working on a project with his son and daughter. He then said "I was hoping Thor was the only exception and you noticed how quite jamie is and he's normally loud like his brother ". Tony followed Steve's gaze and then said "Give them time, we don't know what the Maximoff kid showed them both and I'd say thor and jamie was pretty humbled by the fact that they got taken down by a mortal ".

Steve cut more wood and said "Earth's mightiest heroes, pulled apart liked cotton candy". Tony then said "Seems like you walked away alright". Steve looked confused. "Is that a problem?" he asked. "I don't trust a man without a dark side, call me old-fashioned" Tony said smirking. "Maybe you haven't seen it yet" Steve replied.
