I don't wanna live forever
'Cause I know I'll be living in vain
And I don't wanna fit wherever
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
- I Don't Wanna Live Forever, Zayn and Taylor Swift

We have to stop Ultron from loading his body. But we need to destroy the gem, which is impossible because of its power. The power that's inside the gem is uncontainable, so we have to find this Cradle and give it to Tony.

I wasn't that far behind Clint from one of the jets. In fact, I was flying right next to him. He looked towards me and pointed towards the bridge where one of the lab trucks was heading.

"Right above you, Cap," Clint told Steve through the communicator. "On the loop by the bridge. It's them. You got three with the Cradle, one in the cab. I could take out the driver."

"Negative," Steve said. "That truck crashes, the gem could level the city. We need to draw out Ultron. Raven, I might need you for this one."

I nodded, even though he couldn't see, and pressed the button on the communicator. "Right behind you."

I dove down in time to see Steve jump off the bridge. He landed on top of the truck and rolled till he got towards the back. Steve was about to open the back door, but this laser beam went through and pushed the door open, making Steve twist to the side of the car. He pushed the door back, but was hit with another blast. Steve jumped up as the door broke and grabbed on to the edge.

"Well, he'd definitely unhappy," he said as I flew behind him. "I'm gonna try and keep him that way."

"You're not a match for him, Cap," Clint said.

Steve sighed. "Thanks, Barton."

Then Ultron came out and blasted Steve with one of his sound waves. Steve went flying back and headed towards one of the cars. I held my hand up and held Steve in place before tossing him to the top of the truck.

"You know what's in that Cradle?" Ultron asked us as he flew on top. He send another beam towards us, but I grit my teeth together as I created a force field to cover Steve and I. "The power to make real change. And that terrifies you." I removed the force field as Steve got his shield ready.

"I wouldn't call it a comfort," Steve said before he threw his shield and knocked Ultron back.

Ultron was only in the air for a bit before sending another one of his beams, making Steve and I jump away from each other. Ultron grabbed the shield and threw it back before hitting us with more beams. Steve grabbed his shield in time before throwing it again, hitting Ultron right in the chest. I held my hand out and levitated the mailbox before throwing it at Ultron's head, who blasted it.

"Stop it," he sneered.

He send another beam at Steve, knocking him off the truck. The black mist came out of my hands before I send them towards Ultron. They wrapped around him before I brought both my hands up, making him rise, and slammed them down, taking him with. Ultron looked up at me and aimed his laser at me. I wasn't quick enough because when he released it, the beam hit my chest. My body went flying back before I landed on the streets. I barley got up before I had to sink to the ground as a speeding car came by.
