"All ideas have the potential to change the world."





"IVESSA!"  I heard Tony shout as I ran off. I didn't look back but I  heard their footsteps quickly following after me. The naked red man hovered in the air, staring out of the glass window as if something monumental was outside. Or maybe something that was monumental to him. 

Everyone entered the room thinking that the man hurt me in some way. I could see it on their faces. I was fine though, just watching. Papa did not look happy at all. I didn't expect him to be, I'm never listening to what he's telling me to do. Pietro said so too. 

"Ivessa, poluchit' svoyu zadnitsu zdes'!" Papa said angrily through his grit teeth. Pietro whistled in surprise which caused me to laugh quietly. He angrily came by my side and tugged my arm roughly. I winced a little but it wasn't horribly painful. I already knew I would be in trouble after this.

It stayed quiet after that and everyone continued to stare at the weird robot man that was floating by the window. Uncle Steve wanted to attack, but Thor halted him instead. I looked outside to try and figure out what was so special but it was just the same buildings we see here every day. 

After some time, he began to lower himself to our level. Everyone's head followed his movements closely. The atmosphere was very uncomfortable and it felt like anyone would latch out at any of the others at any second. Papa held me close enough to his chest, but I scooted a bit closer to comfort myself. He secured his arm around me even tighter when he felt me do so.

"You helped create this?" Steve questioned intensely, increasing the amount of discomfort that had filled the air. 

Quickly, Uncle Thor replied. "I had a vision. A whirlpool that sucks in all hope of life at its center is that," he explained slowly, lifting his large hands to point at the yellow gem on the robot man's head.

"What, the gem?" Uncle Bruce asked as if he had been reading my mind. I thought he would understand what Thor was talking about, but he looked just as confused as I did. 

"It's the mind stone." Thor corrected. "It's one of the six infinity stones, the greatest power in the universe, unparalleled in its destructive capabilities." He finished. Steve quickly tried to interject.

"And why would you-"

"Stark is right." Thor finished for himself. Uncle Steve wasn't right to cut him off. 

"Oh...It's definitely the end times." Uncle Bruce mumbles. I don't know if that was supposed to be a joke but I smiled a little. 

"The avengers cannot defeat Ultron," Thor admits in an ashamed mumble. 

"Not alone," The red man suggests. All eyes flew toward him as he began to step toward us all. I took a step back, closer to Papa, and Steve came forward.

"Why does your Vision sound like Jarvis?" He questions as if accusing Tony. He bared his teeth in anger and jumped into Thor's face. He was so defensive that it was annoying.

"We reconfigured Jarvis' matrix to create something new," Uncle Tony stepped in, coming to stand by Steve's side. 

"You think I am a child of Ultron," began Thor's vision. 

"You're not?" Steve questioned.

The Vision shook his head. "I'm not Ultron," He says. "I'm not Jarvis either." He continued. I waited for him to continue when he said "I am", but Pietro's sister cut him off.

"I looked in your head. And saw annihilation." She spoke.

"Look again-" 

Papa threw his arm off of me and began to walk toward the robot. 

He chuckled. "Your self-approval means jack to me." 

"There are powers, the horrors in our head, Ultron himself. They all came from the mind stone." Thor spoke quickly. "And nothing compared to what it can unleash. The Vision is on our side." 

"Is it?" Steve asked defensively. Again. "Are you? On our side?" He finished. 

The Vision didn't respond right away. "I don't think it's that simple."

"Well, it better get real simple real soon," Steve complained. I rolled my eyes.

"I.. am on the side of life," Vision speaks quietly. "Ultron isn't. He will end it all."

"What's he waiting for?"

"You."

"Where?"

"Sokovia," Papa says. "He's gotten out there too."

Bruce stepped toward the Vision. "If we're wrong about you," he begins. "If you're the monster that Ultron made you to be, what will you do?" He asks in a quiet, serious tone. 

It stayed quiet for some time. Everyone watched the Vision as we waited for him to respond. 

"I don't want to kill Ultron," he starts as he begins to pace around the small space between us. "He's unique, and he's in pain. But that pain will roll over the earth so he must be destroyed." Vision says. I had no idea what that meant, but I didn't think that anyone liked the sound of it. "Every form he's built, every trace of his presence on the net. We have to act now." He turned to take a look at Cap. "And not one of us can do it without the other." He finished, giving him a look.

I wanted to laugh because Steve kind of deserved that. Not everything is a solo act for Captain America. Papa says that a lot to himself when he thinks I can't hear him.

"Maybe I am a monster. I don't think I'd know if I were one. I'm not what you are and not what you intended." He says. "So there may be no way to make you trust me. But we need to go," He explains, holding Thor's hammer out to him. 

Everyone stayed silent while they waited to see Thor take the hammer from the Vision. I'm pretty sure that no one but Thor is supposed to be able to pick that up, so it shocked me to see the Vision man grab it. Thor tried to act like he wasn't really bothered but it was very obvious that he was. He stared into the distance and hesitated as everyone tried to wrap their heads around what they'd just seen. 

"Right," He mumbles. Sarcastically, he walks up to Tony and gives him a pat on the shoulder. "Well done."
