Ice and Defenders: The New Age// Book 4 of the Frostbite Series

The Vision

It took us too long to get to the tower. I thought that we would be too late. But just as Steve and I were stepping into the lab with Wanda and Pietro behind us, Bruce was standing by the cradle while Tony stood at a computer.

"You have got to upload that schematic in the next three minutes," Bruce said to Tony.

"I'm going to say this once," Steve stepped into the lab.

"How about 'nonce'?" Tony replied.

"Shut it down," Steve ordered.

"Nope, not going to happen." Tony began walking to another computer.

Behind me Wanda and Pietro looked around the lab nervously.

"Tony, this is not going to end well, doesn't matter how differently you do it." I said.

"You don't know what you're doing," Steve added.

"And you do?" Bruce looked at us. "She's not in your head?" He pointed at Wanda and she stepped forward.

"I know you're angry."

"Oh, we're way past that," Bruce said. "I could choke the life out of you and never change a shade."

"Banner, watch your words," I held up my hand.

"Banner, after everything that has happened-" Steve took a step forward.

"That's nothing compared to what's coming!" Tony cut in and everyone began to speak over each other.

"You don't know what's in there!" Wanda shouted.

"What do you mean 'what's coming?'" I asked Tony.

"This isn't a game!" Steve shouted.

There was a flash of blue that circled around the lab. Circuits fired and wires were pulled.
Pietro stopped in front of Bruce with a large chord in his hand.

"No, no. Go on. You were saying?" He looked at Bruce and Tony.

Tony opened his mouth to speak and there was a gunshot. I covered my ears and stepped back as the glass below Pietro's feet shattered and he fell to the floor below us.

"Pietro!" Wanda ran forward and I grabbed her arm before she fell through the glass too. I looked down to see Clint with his foot on Pietro's leg.

There was beeping from the computers, Tony turned around to look at a screen before reaching for the keyboard. 

"I'm re-routing the upload," Tony said.

Steve threw his shield at a computer screen and it bounced back and forth between monitors. Tony reached his hand out, a suit glove flew to his hand and he shot plasma at Steve, causing him to be blown back.

"Steve!" I shouted.

Wanda got ready to attack Tony but was held back by Bruce. 

"Go ahead, piss me off," he growled. 

Another piece of armor was flying towards Tony, I flicked my hand out and an icicle deflected the armor and sent it crashing into the wall. Tony looked at me in anger and held up his armored hand. I held up my own hand to challenge him, snowflakes were swiftly swirling around my hand and in between my fingers like a blizzard.

"Do it, I dare you," I cocked my head in a mocking way at Tony.

Clint ran in with a handgun. Steve got up and attacked Tony, catching him off guard and causing him to shoot the plasma at me and I dove to the side. Someone tightly gripped my arm and pulled me up, I turned my head to look at Thor who had just entered. My eyes widened at his sudden appearance. He let go of my arm, jumped up onto the cradle, lifted up his hammer and electricity from the building began traveling to him.
