~Tony's POV~

I was researching about Ultron and Strucker when Capsicle and Maria walked in. Me and Cap are on speaking grounds but I still haven't forgave him completely. He knows how much of a mess I was when Mackenzie left and to say that me being selfish was the reason she left was just un called for.

"He's all over the globe. Robotics labs,weapons facilities,jet propulsion labs. Reports of a metal man,or men,coming in and emptying the place." Maria said as they walked up the stairs.

"Fatalities?" Cap asked.

"Only when engaged. Mostly guys left in a fugue state going on about old memories,worst fears,sudden weather changes,flying fish and 'something too fast to see'." She explained as I listened. Kenzie and the twins have joined Ultron.

"Kenzie and the Maximoffs." Cap replied also understanding what she was talking about.

"That makes sense he's go to them. They have someone in common." He continued as they reached the room I was working in.

"Not any more." Maria said.

The next thing I knew we were all gathered around the computer and Thor had a tablet in his hands.

"What's this?" I asked walking over to Thor.

"A message. Ultron killed Strucker." Cap said as Thor hit me in the stomach with the tablet,instead of just passing it to me. I guess he's still a little mad.

I looked at the picture to see Strucker dead with the word peace written in his blood above him.

"And he did a Banksy at the crime scene, just for us." I stated sarcastically.

"This is a smoke screen." Nat replied looking up at me from the seat she was sitting on.

"Why send a message when you've just given a speech?" She asked.

"Strucker knew something that Ultron wanted us to miss." Cap replied.

"Yeah,I bet.....yeah everything we had on Strucker's been erased." She stated clicking some keys on the computer.

"Not everything." Cap said looking at me. He was taking about the paper files we have in one of the storage rooms in the tower. We all got up and headed down to the storage room.

Once we got to the room,we searched through box after box trying to find anything we have on Strucker.

"Know associates. Baron Strucker had a lot of friends." Cap said flicking through files.

"Well these people are all horrible," Bruce said also flicking through files. I looked through some of the people in the file until I recognised someone.

"Wait. I know that guy." I said grabbing the file and flicking through.

"From back in the day. He operates off the African coast. Black market arms." I explained earning look of disbelief off of Cap.

"There are conventions. All right? You meet people. I didn't sell him anything." I said glaring at him.

"He was talking about finding something new, a game-changer. It was all very Ahab." I explained as Thor looked at the file.

"This?" He asked pointing to a strange mark on his neck.

"Ah, it's a tattoo,I don't think he had it." I said as Thor shook his head.

"Those are tattoos, this is a brand." He said pointing to the mark.

"Oh,yeah. It's a word in an African dialect meaning thief. In a much less friendly way." Bruce explained after searching on the computer.

"What dialect?" Cap asked as Bruce turned back to the computer.

"Wakanada. Wakanda." Bruce said stuttering slightly. I turned to face Cap at the same time he turned to face me.

"If this guy got out of Wakanda with some other trade goods." I started before Steve cut me off.

"I thought your father said he got the last of it." He said confusion written on his face.

"I don't follow. What comes out of Wakanda?" Bruce asked walking over to us.

"The strongest metal on earth." I stated slowly as Cap looked at his shield.

"Where is this guy now?"

~Kenzie's POV~

We've arrived at some salvage yard just off of the African coast. Ulysses Klaue was the man were looking for, Ultron wants some vibranium, the strongest metal on earth. We reached this guys office to see that he was angrily shouting down the phone at someone.

Standing the shadows the three of us watched as Klaue looked around cautiously as the power of all his machines went out. He grabbed his gun and turned around so he was facing us but he didn't know that yet. He shot his gun and within seconds Pietro had ran and taken the gun from behind him. He sighed and me and Wanda walked into the room.

"Yeah. The enhanced. Strucker's prize pupils. Do you want a candy? Hmm?" He asked as the three of us glared at him.

"I was sorry to hear about Strucker. But then, he knew what kind of world he was helping create. Human life. Not a growth market." He continued as Pietro looked at Wanda in shock.

"You two didn't know?" He asked Wanda and Pietro.

"Is this your first time intimidating someone? I'm afraid I'm not that afraid." He mocked looking mainly at Wanda.

"Everybody is afraid of something." Wanda said as we both walked forward a little.

"Cuttlefish." Klaue said pointing at her.

"Deep sea fish. They make lights,disco lights to hypnotise their prey,and then..." He explained doing an expression of a cuttlefish as we looked at him in disbelief.

"I saw a documentary. It was terrifying." He said before Pietro ran over to him and grabbed two candies. He quickly threw me one and put one in his mouth as Klaue looked at him in shock as he ran back. We both smirked as he looked between us and then at his candy tray.

"So if you're going to fiddle with my brain and make me see a giant cuttlefish, then I know you don't do business. And I know you're not in charge." He said staring at Wanda.

"And as your wonderful boyfriend Tony Stark would know honey, I only deal with the man in charge." He finished smirking at me and not noticing that Ultron was outside the office window.

Ultron smashed the window causing Klaue to fall to the ground groaning. Ultron pushed him out of the office and into the dimly lit corridor.

"There is no man in charge. Let's talk business.
