Steve: Odds are we'll be riding into heavy fire.  That's what we signed up for.  But the people of Sokovia didn't.  So our priority is getting them out.  All they want is to live their lives in peace, and unfortunately 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, we find Romanoff, and we clear the field.  Keep the fight between us.  Ultron thinks we're monsters.  That we're what's wrong with the world.  This isn't just about beating him.  It's about whether he's right.

The Quinjet lands, and I go with Cindy and Danny to help evacuate people. Cindy starts punching the approaching robots and Cindy starts helping civilians to out of the city, while I fly up and fire ki blasts at the robots from the sky. Suddenly, the ground starts shaking, and cracks begin to appear in the roads leading out of the city. I thought it was an earthquake, but suddenly, the city began moving... up. Cindy almost fell off the edge, but I flew down and grabbed her. She grinned at me.

Cindy: Thanks babe.

I kissed her and put her back down, before flying up and searching for Ultron's energy signature.  I found it in a church in the middle of the city... and it was a lot stronger than it had been in Seoul.  Suddenly, Ultron's voice began to resonate across the city.

Ultron: Do you see the beauty of it?   The inevitability?  You rise, only to fall.  You, Avengers, you are my meteor.  My swift and terrible sword.  And the earth will crack with the weight of your failure.  Purge me from your computers, turn my own flesh against me.  It means nothing.  When the dust settles, the only living thing in this world... will be metal.

I crashed through the roof of the chapel, and he turned towards me.  He was a lot taller than he had been in Seoul.  And shinier.  He was now made of Vibranium.

Leek: Woah... I didn't know they made steroids for robots.

He responded by backhanding me into the wall.  I grit my teeth, standing up and going Super Saiyan Two.

Leek: Alright then.

I rushed at him and punched him in the jaw.  He flew backwards, crashing into the wall.  Ultron yelled in anger and rushed back, grabbing my arms.  I kicked him off, and he was about to fire a beam at me, but Vision appeared in front of me.

Vision: Leek, go help the others.  I will handle Ultron.

I nodded, flying out of the chapel and towards Miles and Lana who were surrounded by robots.  I plowed through several of them, as they destroyed the others. 

Leek: I hate to admit it, but fighting robots is kind of fun.

Miles shot webs at one of the drones, swinging it around and smashing it into the ground.

Miles: Speak for yourself, moron!

I laughed at this, when suddenly I noticed something emerging from the clouds near the city.  Something huge.  Is that... a Helicarrier?

Leek: Fury, you son of a bitch!

Pietro ran up next to me, staring in awe at the Helicarrier.

Pietro: This is S.H.I.E.L.D.?

Leek: This is what S.H.I.E.L.D. is supposed to be.

Pietro smiled, watching as small transport ships came out of bay doors on the side of the Helicarrier.

Pietro: This is not so bad.

War Machine came flying out of the helicarrier, firing his machine gun at the swarm of robots coming towards.  The rest of the Avengers regrouped at the church to finish the fight with Ultron.  Iron Man, Vision, Thor, and I all fired blasts at Ultron, and he began melting.  We let up, and the Hulk punched him, sending him flying off into the distance.  We began destroying the rest of the robots, making sure none of them got away.  Then I noticed Ultron flying towards Clint and a kid with the Quinjet.  I flew towards them, just as Ultron began firing the machine gun on at them... but I was too late.  Pietro ran in front of them, pushing Clint and the child out of the way but getting hit by the bullets.  I landed next to him as he chuckled.

Pietro: Bet you didn't... see that one... coming.

With that he fell to the ground, dead.  I sensed a massive explosion of energy near the chapel.  That had to be Wanda.  Cindy landed next to me, noticing Pietro's body, and hung her head.

Cindy: Oh no...

Leek: Cindy, take them to the helicarrier.  I'm gonna go get Wanda.

She nodded, picking up the little kid and running off as Clint picked up Pietro's body.

Clint: He saved my life.  It's the least I can do.

I nodded, flying into the air and towards Wanda, when suddenly the city stopped rising, and thrusters fired off sending the city rocketing back down towards the Earth.  I found Wanda kneeling in front of Ultron's mangled body.

Ultron: Wanda... if you stay here, you'll die.

Wanda: I already have.

She was cut off by me firing a blast through Ultron's head.  She turned towards me, surprised.  I held my hand out to her.

Leek: Wanda... I'm so sorry.  If I had been faster-

Wanda: Don't.  It's not your fault, Leek.

The city suddenly shook again.

Leek: Come on, we have to go.

She nodded, grabbing my hand as I flew off, carrying her to the helicarrier.  We watched as a massive burst of lightning hit the middle of the city, and the giant rock exploded.  Cindy walked over to me, wrapping her arms around me.

Cindy: We did it.

I smiled, kissing her forehead.

Leek: I love you, Cindy Moon.

She looked up at me, shocked, as I smiled at her.  She grinned, hugging me tighter.

Cindy: I love you too, Leek.
