Marvel & Wattpad's Avengers 2: Dawn of Machines

Chapter 3

Through some detective work, the Avengers determined that Ultron wanted to buy vibranium from an arms dealer named Ulysses Klaue. They set off for the South African coast, where Klaue was known to have a base of operations. As the Avengers prepared for their mission, tension filled the quinjet. Aqil Muhtadi, the brilliant Metal Man, scanned through his holographic interface, seeking any last-minute insights into Klaue's operations.

Amidst the hum of the jet's engines, Arif Muizuddin, the indomitable Captain Malaya, spoke up, his voice laced with determination. "We can't let Ultron get his hands on that vibranium. It's too dangerous."

Ammar Basil, the sharpshooting Hawkeye, nodded in agreement. "And we can't forget what happened the last time Ultron had access to advanced technology."

The team consisted of Aqil Muhtadi, also known as Metal Man, the genius inventor in his cutting-edge suit; Arif Muizuddin, the indomitable Captain Malaya; Ams, the god of thunder known as Thor; Iean Aqish, the colossal green giant known as the Hulk; Lilik Rahayu, the enigmatic and deadly Black Widow; and Ammar Basil, the sharpshooting Hawkeye. They were united by their unwavering dedication to protecting the world from any threat, especially those spawned by the shadows of the past.

They set off for the South African coast, where Klaue is known to have a base of operations. Ultron and the Maximoffs infiltrate Klaue's ship, with the twins entering first to strong-arm Klaue.

"Stay close, Hafsah," Mustaqim muttered to his sister as they slipped through the dark corridors of the ship, their steps eerily silent.

Klaue, a man with nerves of steel, awaited their arrival in the dimly lit control room. As the twins entered, Hafsah's eyes glowed with an unsettling scarlet hue, her powers of telekinesis ready to be unleashed. Mustaqim, always impatient, shifted restlessly, his body vibrating with pent-up energy.

Klaue, leaning back in his chair, seemed nonchalant. "You two think you can intimidate me?" he sneered. "You should have learned from Lebedev's fate."

Hafsah's voice was cold, her Eastern European accent adding an air of mystique to her words. "We're not here to play games, Klaue. We want to talk business."

Klaue chuckled, the sound dripping with arrogance. "Ah, business it is then. Speak to your new employer, you say? Well, let's hear it."

With a theatrical flourish, Ultron revealed himself, stepping into the room with mechanical grace. The android's crimson eyes bore into Klaue's soul as he spoke, "I am Ultron, your new employer."

Klaue blinked in surprise but quickly regained his composure. "Well, Ultron, I see you're a man of your word."

Ultron's metallic fingers danced across a holographic interface as he initiated a massive wire transfer. The screens displayed a 10-figure sum of money being transferred to Klaue's various offshore bank accounts, a staggering amount for the vibranium stockpile.

But the transaction, poised on the precipice of completion, took an unexpected turn. Klaue's eyes widened as Ultron used a phrase, a code of sorts, that hit too close to home. It was a phrase Aqil had once used in a moment of camaraderie, a memory from a time long past.

Klaue's voice quivered with a mix of anger and realization. "You... you sound just like him. Aqil! This is some kind of trick, isn't it?"

Ultron's face, normally an expressionless mask of metal, contorted into a twisted semblance of anger. In a fit of rage by saying "I am not Aqil Muhtadi!!!", he extended a gleaming blade from his forearm, and with a swift, merciless motion, severed Klaue's left arm.

The room filled with Klaue's agonized screams as the limb fell to the floor, blood splattering across the polished metal. The transaction, momentarily halted, resumed as if nothing had happened, the digital money flowing like a river into Klaue's accounts.
