"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." Hill said. "Fatalities?" You asked. "Only when engaged. Mostly guys left in a fugue state going on about old memories, worst fears, and something too fast to see." Hill said. "Maximoffs. Well, that makes sense he'd go to them, they have someone in common." Steve said. "Not anymore." Hill said. She hands Steve a tablet showing photo of Strucker's dead body with the word PEACE written in blood on the wall next to him. "That's a negative. I answer to you. Yes, ma'am." Clint said into his phone. You interrupt him. "Barton, we might have something." You said. "Gotta go." Clint said. "Who was that?" Steve asked. "Girlfriend." Clint said. After you and Steve have gathered the rest of the team Steve shows them the photo of Strucker's body. "What's this?" Tony asked. "A message. Ultron killed Strucker." You said.

"And he did a Banksy at the crime scene, just for us." Tony said. "This is a smokescreen. Why send a message when you've just given a speech?" Natasha asked. "Strucker knew something that Ultron wanted us to miss." Steve said. "Yeah, I bet he..." you looked at the computer. "Yep. Everything we had on Strucker has been erased." You said. "Not everything." Tony said.All of you go through the physical files they have on Strucker. "Known associates. Well, Strucker had a lot of friends." You said. "Well, these people are all horrible." Banner said. "Wait. I know that guy." Tony said. You pass him the photo you were looking at. "From back in the day. He operates off the African coast, black market arms." Tony said. Steve gives him an accusing look. "There are conventions, alright? You meet people, I didn't sell him anything." Tony said. You all see the photo is of a man named Ulysses Klaue.

"He was talking about finding something new, a game changer, it was all very "Ahab."Tony said. Thor points to the scar on the back of Klaue's neck."This." Thor said. "Uh, it's a tattoo. I don't think he had it..." Tony said. "No, those are tattoos, this is a brand." Thor said. You identify the brand on Klaue's neck on the computer. "Oh, yeah. It's a word in an African dialect meaning thief, in a much less friendly way." You said. "What dialect?" Steve asked. "Wakanada...? Wa...Wa...Wakanda." Banner said. "If this guy got out of Wakanda with some of their trade goods..." Tony said. "I thought your father said he got the last of it?" You asked. "I don't follow. What comes out of Wakanda?" Banner asked. "The strongest metal on earth." Tony said. "Where is this guy now?" Youasked Tony.

"Don't tell me your man swindled you. I sent you six short range heat seekers and got a boat full of rusted parts. Now, you will make it right, or the next missile I send you will come very much faster. He ends the call and connects to another call. Now, minister, where were we? Suddenly the lights go out causing a commotion in the salvage yard and the twins enter Klaue's office. "Yeah. The enhanced. Strucker's prize pupils." He picks up a plate from his desk. "Want a candy? Oh, sorry to hear about Strucker. But then, he knew what kind of world he was helping create. Human life, not a growth market." He said. The twins look at each other. "You...you didn't know? Is this your first time intimidating someone? I'm afraid that I'm not that afraid." Klaue said. "Everybody's afraid of something." Wanda said. "Cuttlefish. Deep sea fish. They make lights. disco lights. Whoom, whoom, whoom! to hypnotize their prey, then whoom! I saw a documentary, it was terrifying." Klaue said. Pietro speeds over to pick up a candy from Klaue's desk, and Klaue jerks back, expecting to be attacked. "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, and I only deal with the man in charge." Klaue said. Suddenly Ultron breaks through the glass window and knocks down Klaue. "There is no "man" in charge. Let's talk business." Ultron said. Klaue gives Ultron some vibranium from his stash. "Upon this rock I will build my church. Vibranium." Ultron said. "You know, it came at great personal cost. It's worth billions." Klaue said.
