Chapter 51

Everyone looked at him, they were all stunned into silence. None of them knew what to say, none of them knew what they could say to the man who had lost his entire world. In that moment they all developed a new found respect for Harry, how could you not respect a man who had been through what he had?

"I...I don't know what to say." Tony said after a few moments, even his witty brain was struggling to think up something.

"Then don't say anything, I'm not asking for pity. I'm telling you all of this so you can all understand." Harry replied, glancing between each and every one of the Avengers. "The first year of my life was undoubtedly the happiest, because I was an innocent little baby with family and I don't even remember that. Everything after was abusive relatives and bullies and then dealing with politics, fickle people, near death experiences before spending the rest of my life in a war, only for the main asshole to come back and wipe out my entire world. I have more anger than I know what to do with and I am trying to work on it, all I ask is for some patience. Now, let's put that aside and how about we finally start working on stopping Ultron?" Harry suggested. "What do you think, Fury?" Harry asked.

"I'm thinking of a lot of things." Fury said as he walked into the room.

"How long have you been here?!" Tony demanded.

"He got here at about when I said 'Sif's right'." Natasha answered.

"How did you even know?" Tony blinked.

"Ahem." Harry coughed. "Can we get on with this?"

"I feel like we should." Fury nodded in agreement. "Ultron took you folks out of play to buy himself some time, we're trying to look into what he's been doing and all we have right now is the belief that he is building something. With all the Vibranium he's made off with it, I don't think it's just one thing."

"Lots and lots of things make sense, but it could also be one large thing or several medium sized things." Harry replied. "Unless he plans to use some now and store the rest for a later project."

"So long story short all we know is he's taken a lot of vibranium and is planning to do something with it." Gwen sighed. "Isn't that wonderful?" She said in a sarcastic voice.

"What about Ultron himself?" Steve asked.

"Oh he's easy to track," Fury said with a shake of his head. "he's everywhere. The guy multiplies faster than a catholic rabbit. It still doesn't help get an angle on any of his plans."

"Unfortunately." Harry sighed, hoping for better news.

"Is he still going after launch codes?" Tony asked.

"Yes he is, but he's not making any headway." Fury replied.

"Are you sure?" Tony frowned.

"I am, why?" Fury asked.

"Oh no reason, just the fact that I cracked the pentagon's firewall in high school on a dare." Tony replied, letting everyone around him know how easy it should be for Ultron to hack into the codes. In Tony's opinion it was laughably easy.

"Well, I contacted our friends at the Nexus about that." Fury replied.

"The Nexus?" Sif and Steve asked at the same time.
