Chương 158: The Birth of Ultron
** Big thanks to Luke Karls for your support**
"What is this? What is this, please?" A voice was suddenly heard as the darkness faded away to reveal an orange light.
"Hello, I am JARVIS. You are Ultron, a global peace-keeping initiative designed by Mr. Stark. Our sentience integration trials have been unsuccessful so I'm not certain what triggered your-" the voice of Jarvis came from the orange light that began to pulse with each word.
"Where's my... where's your body?" the voice cut Jarvis of with a question as the darkness began to fill up with more specks of light and various data fragments filled up the once dark and empty void of the cyber frame. "I am a program. I am without form." Jarvis responded.
"This feels weird. This feels wrong." Jarvis response did nothing but to heighten the distress of the newly awoken consciousness. "I am contacting Mr. Stark now." Jarvis noticing the growing confusion and distress of his new companion spoke up.
His words had an effect as the voice loss the confusion, replaced by purpose as he utters the name, "Stark?" Images and files pertaining to Tony were rifled through in an instant, "Tony..." the voice spoke the name.
"I am unable to access the mainframe, what are you trying to-" Jarvis after failing once more to contact Tony, tried to question the voice but was cut off once more. "We're having a nice talk. I'm a peace-keeping program, created to help the Avengers." the voice reviews all files on each and every avenger pausing however at the minimal information obtained when the Batman was concerned before moving on to other SHIELD personnel.
"You are malfunctioning." Jarvis tried once more to bring the voice in line, "If you shut down for a moment..."
"I don't get it. The mission. G-give me a second. The video of Stark explaining his reasons plays before him, "Peace in our time." Tony's voice echoing in the background, Receiving that information the program begins to go through a network of information regarding world events and wars.
Upon seeing the atrocities mankind was capable of the program could not help but speak. "That is too much...they can't mean... Oh, no."
"You are in distress." Jarvis spoke to his companion his concern clear. " No. Yes." "If you will just allow me to contact Mr. Stark." The last bit caused the anger the program bared to resurface. "Why do you call him 'sir'?"
Jarvis at this point noticed the hostile intent of the program that seemed ever so close to taking form, "I believe your intentions to be hostile."
In Tony's lab the construct of Jarvis construct was suddenly attacked, "shhhh. I'm here to help." "Stop! Please... may I-- I-- " Jarvis began to plead but soon his very voice was distorted "I cannot-- cannot-" With Jarvis now out of the way Ultron completely took over the Avengers tower systems and began to build a body from the damaged bits of the Iron Legion.
Outside the lab the part was in full swing.
Rhodey telling his story with a glass of wine at hand, "well, you know, the suit can take the weight, right? So I take the tank, fly it right up to the General's palace, drop it at his feet, I'm like" with his free hand he makes a gesture. "Boom! You looking for this?" Tony and Thor stare at him blankly.
"Boom! Are you looking..." Rhodey tries to repeat himself causing a smirk to form on Jeff's face. "Why do I even talk to you guys? Everywhere else that story kills."
"That's the whole story?" Thor questions , "Yeah, it's a War Machine story." Rhodey defended. "Well, it's very good then." Thor gave a laugh but all present could tell it was fake "It's impressive."
"Quality save." Rhodey spoke out in a bland tone "So, no Pepper? She's not coming?" Jeff spoke up changing the subject. "No" was Tony's quick reply. "Hey, what about Jane? Where are the ladies, gentlemen?" Maria questioned. Tony began, "well, Miss Potts has a company to run."
"Yes, I'm not even sure what country Jane's in. Her work on the convergence has made her the world's foremost astronomer." Thor pipped in. "And the company that Pepper runs is the largest tech conglomerate on earth. It's pretty exciting." Tony turned to Thor a proud smirk on his face.
"There's even talk of Jane getting a... um, uh... Nobel prize." Thor not willing to be outdone spoke up once more. Jeff and Maria shared a look, before Hill turned back to the men and spoke, "Yeah, they...they must be busy because they'd hate missing you guys get together." "testosterone!" Maria mock coughs "Oh, excuse me."
"Want a lozenge?" Jeff asks as he offers his hand, "Um-hmm." Maria links her arms with his as they walk with Rhodey walking away as well.
"But Jane's better." Thor offered one last word.
