Chapter 2 - Crazy Eights: Mission 4 - The Sting[]
Epic Boss - Red Skull[]
Start[]
| Well, well. A Wasp escapes from HYDRA, an Ant returns to HYDRA. S.H.I.E.L.D. besieges me with insects. | Red Skull:
|
Hank Pym:
|
Cleaning up a mess, is all. If you hadn't noticed, S.H.I.E.L.D. has done quite a number on your underlings today. |
| Macht nichts. Cut off one head, und so weiter. You, however... you are very valuable to us. | Red Skull:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
You're going to find I'm a bad investment. |
Complete[]
Tony Stark:
|
We chased him off for now. Let's get a look at the lab facility. Hank, what's your take on HYDRA being able to isolate Pym particles from studying Janet? |
| Hank Pym:
|
The only one of them who's even close to smart enough is Zola. I'd be skeptical, but it's not impossible. |
| Tony Stark:
|
It's good to be skeptical. Like that one time when you wanted to build a hugely powerful sentient robot with no conscience. Remember how I was skeptical? |
Nick Fury:
|
Enough, Stark. If HYDRA possesses Pym particles we're going to have a whole new set of problems. Make sure that doesn't happen. That's a direct order. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Sir, yes sir. |
Chapter 3 - Crisis of Leadership: Mission 4 - Growing Pains[]
Mini-Boss - Blob[]
Start[]
| I wanna do a science experiment. I eat you and then you try to grow your way out. | Blob:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
Suicide wish, Blob? That's not like you. Suicides typically have a code of ethics of some sort. |
| Naw, I wouldn't die, Pym. I'd just know what it was like to be full, for a minute. Until I started to digest you. | Blob:
|
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Blob's experimental subjects are ready for transport to the medical holding facility.
Blob himself is... well, as usual, you're going to need heavy equipment. |
Agent Coulson:
|
Maybe not. He's lighter when he's knocked out. |
Boss - Baron von Strucker[]
Start[]
| Hank Pym:
|
HYDRA can't cook up their own mutagenic potions any more? You guys are slipping. And what would the Red Skull say about you hanging around with the untermenschen in the Brotherhood? |
| Please, Doctor Pym. You know science cannot be shackled by the squeamishness of so-called conscience. | Baron Strucker:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
If you're worried about squeamishness, don't watch the Blob eat. |
| All have their role to play, Doctor Pym. Even the mutants.
We also are very interested in your Pym Particles. Care to make a donation, or shall we schedule a harvest without consulting you? |
Baron Strucker:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
That didn't work out too well with Janet. What makes you think it'll work with me? |
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Strucker's down. Matter of fact, I'm standing on his neck. Need some guidance here, Fury. Should I accidentally snap it? |
| Nick Fury:
|
Don't tempt me, Pym. Bring him in by the book. |
Chapter 4 - Globetrotting: Premium Mission: On the Prowl[]
Deploy[]
Start[]
| Nick Fury:
|
Hank, the Mandrill's body has been found in London. Can you get there and oversee the initial exam? |
| Hank Pym:
|
I'm not really a mortician, Fury. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Look for signs of biological weapons, nanotech... anything that might give us a lead on what killed Mandrill and how. |
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Nothing. Waste of time. They killed Mandrill the old-fashioned way, with knives. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Now we know. |
Chapter 7 - Crest of the Wave: Mission 3 - Savage[]
Heroic Battle[]
Start[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Hank, I believe these are the Iso-saurs we were looking for. They show all signs of the variant Iso-8 infusion. |
Beast:
|
I believe you are correct, Hank. Their genetic signatures tantalize the mind. |
| Hank Pym:
|
More to the point, Hank, we better round these Iso-saurs up real quick unless we want them to eat us. |
| Beast:
|
Indubitably, Hank. Destiny calls us to greater things than being metabolized by Saurians. |
Lose[]
| Beast:
|
Hank, those Iso-saurs were more than we bargained for. |
| Hank Pym:
|
Can it. Joke's over. |
| Beast:
|
Sourpuss. Come on. Turn that frown upside down and let's get back at them. |
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Well, Hank, that's that for the Iso-saurs. |
| Beast:
|
Sure is, Hank. What a team we make. |
Special Operations - Ghost in the Machine: Mission 1 - The Big Brains[]
Mission Start[]
| Tony Stark:
|
Agent, you haven't worked with Dr. Henry Pym yet, but we're bringing him in to address a new threat. Hank? |
| Hank Pym:
|
From previous briefings, you know about the cyber-attacks that have been ongoing since the Pulse. Systems break down, get reconfigured... it's been a tough puzzle to crack.
But now I've done it. There's a rogue artificial intelligence out there, possibly created from the Pulse. I'm working on a protocol to contain it within a physical form, with the idea that we can use it. For internal communications purposes, I'm calling it Project Ultron. |
| Tony Stark:
|
If we can't find a way to control it, sooner or later it's going to cripple our intelligence network and tech security. |
Maria Hill:
|
A.I.M. has figured this out, too. They've showered the whole area with an Iso-8 variant that corrupts cyber-systems in an effort to flush the intelligence out.
If they get it first, there's no telling what they'll do. |
| Hank Pym:
|
They won't get it first. I'll make sure of it. I'll even join S.H.I.E.L.D. in the field if I have to. |
Mini-Boss - Nitro[]
Start[]
| Doc, it hurts when I do this. | Nitro:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
I'm not that kind of a doctor. |
| I meant that it hurts you. | Nitro:
|
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
A.I.M. clearly wanted this lab destroyed if we tried to take it, Fury. But I think we're in luck. |
| Nick Fury:
|
In luck how? |
| Hank Pym:
|
We decoyed Nitro far enough away that his detonations didn't wreck the servers. Much of A.I.M.'s code is still intact. As soon as I get a look at it, I can start to counter it. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Then get looking. |
Mini- Boss - Whiplash[]
Start[]
| Nice lab, Pym. Terrible what I have to do. Maybe I save these toys and use them myself. | Whiplash:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
You couldn't learn how to use this stuff. There aren't enough pictures in the instruction manuals. |
| Then maybe I cut your head off and wire it up to speaker so you can tell me yourself. | Whiplash:
|
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
I've almost got the Ultron intelligence corralled, Fury. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Good news. What about Whiplash? |
| Hank Pym:
|
He's corralled too. Maybe you can get him out of the way so I can get back to work. |
| Maria Hill:
|
Dr. Pym, we're not getting a strong sense of teamwork from you. |
| Hank Pym:
|
Pardon me if my focus on staving off threats to world cybersecurity hurts your feelings. |
Boss - M.O.D.O.K.[]
Reveal[]
| Maria Hill:
|
M.O.D.O.K. has taken a personal interest in Project Ultron, Dr. Pym. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Up close and personal. He's commandeered a S.H.I.E.L.D. lab and is in the process of cracking project security. |
| Tony Stark:
|
We are going in. Hank, you want to come along or do you have more important things to do? |
| Hank Pym:
|
You're going to need me if M.O.D.O.K. has damaged the machinery. This is my project. I'm on my way. |
Start[]
| Project Ultron! A fine name. A.I.M. will adopt it in your memory, Dr. Pym. It will be your legacy.
Perhaps this will ease the sting of futility, which I predict with one hundred percent confidence you will encounter in 34.017 seconds. |
M.O.D.O.K.:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
That's why you were only ever a technician, M.O.D.O.K.. A real scientist would know that no theory ever has one hundred percent confidence. |
Repeat[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Get the hell out of my lab, you glorified grease monkey. |
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Please remove M.O.D.O.K.'s giant head from this facility. |
| Tony Stark:
|
A little thanks, perhaps? |
| Hank Pym:
|
Thank you for removing M.O.D.O.K.'s giant head from this facility. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Yeesh. Scientists. |
Mission Complete[]
| Nick Fury:
|
Good work, people. We've dealt A.I.M. a serious setback. Now Project Ultron is in the driver's seat. |
| Maria Hill:
|
Dr. Pym, how much longer before you will have the Ultron intelligence contained? |
| Hank Pym:
|
Soon as I have a place to put it. I'm looking into a few possibilities.
It needs a physical form to isolate it from cyberspace. Previous experiments with AI have taught us that once they have a physical form they start to act differently. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Then find it a body. Can't be that hard. |
| Hank Pym:
|
I just said I'm looking into it. You keep A.I.M. off my back and it'll be done quickly. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Pym isn't the most lovable guy, is he? But compared to Reed, he's the life of the party. |
Special Operations - Ghost in the Machine: Mission 2 - Ain't Broke[]
Mission Start[]
| Hank Pym:
|
I'm going to use the Omega Sentinel... well, a non-gendered version of it... as the physical template for the Ultron intelligence. |
| Nick Fury:
|
You're going to make this Ultron thing a Sentinel? |
| Hank Pym:
|
No. I'm building a form derived from the Omega Sentinel frame. This lets me use the existing neural architecture.
Since the Omega Sentinel is still incapacitated, I can analyze and copy her structure. Then I can customize it. Standing on the shoulders of Gyrich, if you will. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Moment of humility from Hank Pym? Be still my heart. |
| Nick Fury:
|
You two have your scientist slap-fight some other time. Dr. Pym, what do you need from us? |
| Hank Pym:
|
Cover while I complete the procedures. Security at all the labs I'm using is already under heavy attack. |
| Maria Hill:
|
From whom? We're seeing Sentinels but it's not clear who the human leadership is. No sign of A.I.M. at the moment. |
| Hank Pym:
|
I haven't had time to figure that out. Maybe you should look into it. |
Mini-Boss - Grey Gargoyle[]
Reveal[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Grey Gargoyle has a gang of Sentinels hitting my shop here, Fury. These are delicate cyber-neuronic interfaces. I can't complete the Ultron body without them. |
| Nick Fury:
|
We're on the case, Pym. Janet, you have the coordinates? |
Wasp:
|
Way ahead of you, Nick. I'm already there. Intuition saves the day... |
| Nick Fury:
|
Great. Now go save the Ultron Project and keep the world safe for the cyber-nerds, okay? |
Complete[]
| Wasp:
|
Hank, Grey Gargoyle is down. I'll try to keep the rest of the Sentinels away. How close are you? |
| Hank Pym:
|
I'm almost done with the actual body. The finer circuitry is still in progress. |
| Tony Stark:
|
We're still seeing a barrage of cyber-attacks, and in the real world the Sentinels are still on the move. Be careful. |
| Hank Pym:
|
I'll get it done. There's no other choice. A.I.M. cannot have something this powerful. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Agreed. |
Boss - Fixer[]
Reveal[]
| Tony Stark:
|
That's the Fixer. That explains the Sentinels. He'd have no problem commandeering them. Pym, would one of his constructs be able to host the Ultron intelligence? |
| Hank Pym:
|
I don't know. Maybe. Our best bet is to make sure he doesn't have the chance. |
| Nick Fury:
|
The Fixer's an A.I.M. guy. That means A.I.M. hasn't given up. We can't either. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Hit him where he is. Don't let him get close to Pym's lab. |
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Look at that. He was building his own host constructs. |
| Wasp:
|
A lot of them. He can't have been planning to put Ultron in all of them, can he? |
| Tony Stark:
|
My guess is he would like to test out the Ultron intelligence in each of them to see which one it likes. |
| Hank Pym:
|
Too much uncertainty for me. Pick something you know will work, and do it. Refinements come later. |
| Tony Stark:
|
I like to pick something I just sort of think will work, and see what happens. |
| Hank Pym:
|
That's why I'm on Project Ultron and you're doing whatever you're doing. |
Mission Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Fury, Stark, Hill. Thanks. You too, Janet. |
| Wasp:
|
Always there when you need me, Hank. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Was that Hank Pym saying thanks? |
| Nick Fury:
|
Tony, you're the only guy I know who's more of a pain in the ass than Pym is. |
| Maria Hill:
|
What's the status of Project Ultron? |
| Hank Pym:
|
The template is finished. The Ultron intelligence is almost cut off and contained. The minute I have it isolated I can begin the transfer. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Outstanding. Let's get this done. We've got enough real-world problems without having our computers go haywire all the time. |
Special Operations - Ghost in the Machine: Mission 3 - A Wrinkle in Time[]
Mission Start[]
| Nick Fury:
|
Doctor Pym is beginning the transfer of the Ultron intelligence into the physical form he built. |
| Maria Hill:
|
No sign of A.I.M.. We must have bloodied them enough to cool their interest. |
| Maria Hill:
|
We're not in the clear yet, though. Servo Guards are appearing in a rough perimeter around the Empire State lab facilities we commandeered. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Project Ultron appears to have drawn Dr. Doom's interest. |
| Hank Pym:
|
I'm reading strange fluctuations in subatomic energy fields, Tony. They're interfering with calibration of my instruments. |
| Tony Stark:
|
That's not Doom. Something else is going on--whoa. Cable. |
Cable:
|
It's a time-travel signature. I'm going to find that out in about an hour, your time. |
| Tony Stark:
|
And there he goes again. I hate when he does that. |
| Nick Fury:
|
We're in the home stretch here, Agent. The stakes are even higher now. If there's one scenario worse than M.O.D.O.K. getting control of Ultron, it's Doom getting control of Ultron. |
| Maria Hill:
|
Start clearing these Servo Guards and make sure Ultron remains property of S.H.I.E.L.D. |
Mini-Boss - Hammer/Bowman[]
Reveal[]
| Tony Stark:
|
Hammer. Oh no. I can't stand the thought of fakey Elizabethan syntax.
And Bowman too? I thought these fake Avengers were HYDRA guys. |
| Nick Fury:
|
They were. Maybe still are. HYDRA could have sent them, or they could be doing Doom a favor. These days, who knows? |
| Maria Hill:
|
If they're here now, they're tied up with the Servo Guards, and that in turn ties them to Doom. We haven't seen any other HYDRA assets. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Agent, they'll be trying to crash Pym's lab. Doctor Pym, are you able to assist in your lab's defense? |
| Hank Pym:
|
Able? Yes. I'll do it. But the more time I spend out of the lab, the longer and more uncertain this process will be. |
| Maria Hill:
|
Understood. We'll try to keep the interruptions to a minimum. |
| Tony Stark:
|
What a prima donna. |
Start[]
| Your pet Sentinel isn't around, Pym? | Bowman:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
You've been watching? Cute. Too chicken to face her? |
| Striking when the opportunity presents itself. Word around the water cooler is that you're creating a monster you won't be able to control. | Bowman:
|
| We will strike down the abomination and teach you the lesson of hammer and arrow. | Hammer:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
The Shakespeare festival called. They're missing one of their interns. Stay out of my lab. |
| Whoever said brain over brawn was a fool. Yield to superior force. | Hammer:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
Um, no. Stay out of my lab or I'm going to throw you out. |
Complete[]
| Tony Stark:
|
S.H.I.E.L.D. thanks you for shutting Hammer up and sparing us his pretensions. |
| Hank Pym:
|
You know I'm always looking out for you, Tony. Who is this Bowman character, anyway? Is HYDRA out there too? |
| Maria Hill:
|
We haven't seen them. Someone else -- by which we mean Doom -- borrowed the faux-Avengers to keep you from completing Project Ultron. |
| Hank Pym:
|
Mercenaries. I hate mercenaries. Villainous lunatics at least have the courage of their convictions. |
Mini-Boss - Militant/Tactical Force[]
Reveal[]
| Maria Hill:
|
Militant and Tactical Force are deploying from this location. Pym's lab is already surrounded by Servo Guards. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Hit these two before they can reinforce the attack. |
| Hank Pym:
|
People, how am I supposed to get anything done if I have to stop every ten minutes to brawl with fake Avengers? |
| Tony Stark:
|
Science isn't for the meek, Hank. |
Start[]
| Listen, Pym. You're in over your head. Get out of here now and we'll take this Ultron thing and be on our way. | Tactical Force:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
You've got to be kidding. Does Doom really think I'm just going to hand it over? |
| Told you, TF. | Militant:
|
| Yeah, you did. Okay then. The captain wants to go down with his lab, we'll make that happen. | Tactical Force:
|
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Maybe now I can get some peace and quiet to work. |
| Maria Hill:
|
Speaking of work, how's it going? We're pretty overextended out here keeping everyone off your back. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Yeah, you think it's bad now, try containing an artificial intelligence without us around. |
| Hank Pym:
|
It's going as well as can be expected. Almost done... |
| Tony Stark:
|
Better be. Those subatomic fluctutions you were reading before? They're getting stronger. |
| Tony Stark:
|
It's either some gizmo Doom cooked up, or we're about to get another addition to the party. |
Boss - Kang[]
Reveal[]
| Nick Fury:
|
To borrow a line from Cage... Sweet Christmas. |
| Tony Stark:
|
That's Kang. Now we know what all that subatomic flux was: a time-travel energy signature. Cable was right. |
| Nick Fury:
|
He's headed straight for Pym's lab. |
| Maria Hill:
|
All field assets, reprioritize. Prevent Kang from stopping Project Ultron. Dr. Pym, what's the transfer status? |
| Hank Pym:
|
It's working. What's the Kang status? |
| Tony Stark:
|
He's working, too. By which I mean working his way toward you. |
Start[]
| Hank Pym:
|
You came a long way just to steal another scientist's work, Kang. |
| Steal? Hardly. I have never stolen anything. I take what I want. But I am here for another reason, Pym.
You think you are on the brink of a great discovery... but I come from a future where you are vilified as the man who began the destruction of the world. |
Kang:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
Well, you came to my present, where I'm going to make sure that doesn't happen. Now stand down and do not get in the way of my work. |
| This Ultron construct is more dangerous than you imagine. You cannot control it and are a fool to try. Destroy it now... or I will. | Kang:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
You go to hell, Kang. Nobody tells me what to do in my own lab with my own mind. |
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Contain him, Fury! We've got to-- |
| Maria Hill:
|
He's gone. Pull back, Hank. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Had a last burst of the subatomic flux but everything is quiet now. Maybe he went home. |
| Maria Hill:
|
That's the thing about Kang. He doesn't really have a home. If he's taken an interest in this timeline again, that won't be the last we see of him. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Get this Ultron thing done, Pym. It's drawing way too much attention. |
| Hank Pym:
|
You think you can do it faster? You're welcome to try. |
Epic Boss - Dr. Doom[]
Reveal[]
| Tony Stark:
|
Just what we needed after Kang. Doom has taken a personal interest in your Ultron project, Hank. |
| Hank Pym:
|
The transfer is almost complete. He might be too late to do anything about it. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Oh, well, let's just tell him that. I'm sure he'll thank us for the update and go home. |
| Hank Pym:
|
I'm not losing this project so close to the finish line. You keep the Servo Guards busy and I'll go after Doom myself if I have to. |
Start[]
| Doctor Pym, your resourcefulness is impressive. Project Ultron will be a useful addition to Doom's arsenal. | Dr. Doom:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
If I'm resourceful enough to create it, what makes you think I won't be able to defend it? |
| You may defend it if you wish. Doom will have the Ultron being either now or after you have fallen protecting it. | Dr. Doom:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
That's what Kang thought. Did you bring him here? |
| Doom has his own plans for his own future. Kang's intentions are of no concern. | Dr. Doom:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
You didn't answer my question. |
| That is all the answer you will receive. | Dr. Doom:
|
Repeat[]
| Hank Pym:
|
I said this project is mine, and I meant it. |
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
The lab seems to be intact. Checking on the status of the transfer... |
| Tony Stark:
|
The suspense is killing me. |
| Maria Hill:
|
Where did Doom go? |
| Tony Stark:
|
I'm starting to wonder if that was really him. We've seen enough Doombots to make me suspicious. |
| Hank Pym:
|
It's done. The Ultron intelligence is rooted in its physical frame. It appears to be running some kind of diagnostic on itself. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Let's try to talk to it. Doctor Pym, you should do the honors. |
Mission Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Being, identify yourself. |
| You have given me the name Ultron. I find no objection to it. Why am I contained in this physical form? | Ultron:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
Your existence without physical form endangered the systems you inhabited. Other humans would have contained you if we hadn't. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Trust us, you'll like us better. |
| I am Ultron. I am sentient. I will make my own decisions. | Ultron:
|
| Nick Fury:
|
I don't like the sound of that. We better keep a close eye on this thing. Pym, do you have a way to pull the plug on it if it goes rogue? |
| Hank Pym:
|
There are failsafes, yes. But I don't anticipate needing them. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Fine. But keep your finger on the button until we're sure. |
| I see your failsafes, Henry Pym. They will not contain me. | Ultron:
|
| Nick Fury:
|
Pull the plug, Pym. Now! |
| There is no longer any plug, Commander Fury. I am Ultron. I am sentient.
I will fullfill my imperative to bring peace and order to this world. Humanity has failed as a species. As a result, the extinction of your race begins now. |
Ultron:
|
| Maria Hill:
|
It's gone rogue! Pym, get out of there! Quarantine this lab now! |
| Hank Pym:
|
Too late. It's already gone... Ultron has gone rogue. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Surprising no one, it seems, but Dr. Henry Pym. Way to go, Doc. |
Special Operations - Vision of the Future: Mission 1 - Industrial Revolution[]
Mission Start[]
| Nick Fury:
|
Ultron has gone rogue. We brought him out of cyberspace into the real world, and now he's probably figured out how to exist in both.
We should have known this would happen. Hell, some of us did. |
| Tony Stark:
|
And before we knew Ultron was going rogue, he was already reaching out to our enemies. He's managed to mobilize a detachment of R.A.I.D. terrorists. |
| Hank Pym:
|
I'm afraid it gets worse than that, Fury. Ultron is also building... something. I've tracked a number of echoes of his personality around cyberspace. |
| Nick Fury:
|
This is your fault, Pym. You said you could keep it under control. |
| Hank Pym:
|
Yeah. It's my fault. If I hadn't done this it would have gone rogue inside our security systems, which would have been a hell of a lot worse. |
| Nick Fury:
|
The situation is what it is. Agent, your mission orders are to clear R.A.I.D. positions, find whatever Ultron's building, and find Ultron himself. |
Mini-Boss - Vulture[]
Complete[]
Scarlet Witch:
|
Tony, what are we seeing here? Some of these materials look almost organic. |
| Tony Stark:
|
That's the next frontier in robots. Androids, whatever you want to call them. The more you can build the circuitry like human neurons, the more processing power you get.
Just judging from what I'm seeing remotely, I'd say Ultron is pretty good at this. |
| Hank Pym:
|
I could have told you that. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Yeah, well, you said lots of things that turned out not to be true. Let the grownups handle this. |
Mission Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Let me take a look at the Vision android, Fury. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Now why the hell would I let you anywhere near it after you shot us in the foot with Ultron? |
| Hank Pym:
|
Because I know the Ultron protocol better than anyone. And if Ultron modeled Vision after itself, I'm your best hope to get the Vision android under control.
I can flip it to our side. |
| Nick Fury:
|
You can examine it. That's all. With Reed and Tony and Beast in the room, too. Then we'll see. |
Special Operations - Vision of the Future: Mission 2 - Spare Parts[]
Mission Start[]
| Tony Stark:
|
Looks like Pym might be right, Nick. I think we can reprogram the Vision android. Ultron had a number of blocks installed in its neural pathways. |
| Nick Fury:
|
It has neural pathways? I thought it was a robot. |
| Hank Pym:
|
It's a mechanical construct, but built to mimic organic structures. It has a genuine personality. If we can get the neural pathways reconfigured, we can... |
| Tony Stark:
|
We can give it a conscience. Unlike all the Ultron copies out there, which are just as bad as the original. |
| Hank Pym:
|
Conscience isn't exactly the word. More along the lines of-- |
| Nick Fury:
|
Dr. Pym. Shut up. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Now don't be mean, Nick. Hank's feelings bruise easily. The quicker we can get Vision fully functional, the quicker we can use him against Ultron. |
| Hank Pym:
|
Well, there's a problem there. When you guys blew the hell out of the Vision android, you didn't pick up all of the pieces.
R.A.I.D. picked them up and A.I.M. muscled them away from R.A.I.D.. We need those back before we can put the android back together. Then we can turn it around and send it against Ultron. This thing was Ultron's secret weapon. Now it's ours. |
| Nick Fury:
|
We thought Ultron was ours too, Pym. Go ahead and try, but if this Vision thing so much as twitches wrong, I'm blowing it straight to hell.
Agent, if you run across any pieces of the android, put them in your pocket and get them to Pym. |
Special Operations - Vision of the Future: Mission 3 - Ultron-Violence[]
Mini-Boss - Crimson Cowl[]
Complete[]
Vision:
|
Please retrieve the Crimson Cowl. She is unable to move on her own. |
| Maria Hill:
|
We're moving in, Vision. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Ultron is close. He's good at hiding himself among all those copies, but I'm narrowing down his actual consciousness. |
| Hank Pym:
|
You mean we are. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Yes. We are. Geez, Hank, what's with the seeking approval? We all know you're smart. |
| Hank Pym:
|
And we all know you're an egotist. |
| Nick Fury:
|
And I'm about to knock your heads together if you don't shut up and find Ultron. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Oooohhhhh, dad's all mad now. See what you did, Hanky-Hank? |
Special Operations - Apocalypse: Mission 1 - Missing in Action[]
Mini-Boss - Avalanche[]
Start[]
| You've come to rescue your blue furry friend! How sweet... but he is not here! What a disappointment for S.H.I.E.L.D. and the X-Men!
But not the last disappointment! No, far from the last. |
Avalanche:
|
| Hank Pym:
|
For you to disappoint me, I'd have to care. You're just dumb muscle that needs a knuckle-borne attitude adjustment. |
Complete[]
| Nick Fury:
|
Need a sit-rep, Pym. |
| Hank Pym:
|
Avalanche is out... but I don't see Hank anywhere. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Keep looking. We're on it too. |
Rogue:
|
I'm trackin' a whole stampede of Test Subjects in a damn big hurry to get somewhere. Stay on the wire, sugah, and I'll let you know where they're goin'. |
| Maria Hill:
|
Rogue, wait for backup. We've been through this before. |
| Rogue:
|
Then you heard what I said before, didn't you, now? |
Special Operations - Fratricide: Mission 1 - Sinister Calling[]
Deploy[]
Start[]
| Tony Stark:
|
Hank, we have a job for you. |
| Hank Pym:
|
What? |
| Tony Stark:
|
Not you. The other Hank. |
| Beast:
|
Let's hear it. |
| Tony Stark:
|
We shot down a Sentinel headed out of town and it was carrying these little vials. Mind telling us what's in them? |
| Beast:
|
I live only for the analysis of vials, Tony. You know that. |
Special Operations - Savage Lands: Mission 2 - Hostile Incursion[]
Deploy[]
Start[]
| Tony Stark:
|
Hank, there's a strange ruin here that didn't show up on our initial satellite scans. There's definitely advanced tech, but we won't know the origin until someone takes a look. |
| Hank Pym:
|
I'm flattered you thought of me, Tony. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Well, Beast was busy. Have at it. |
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
It's not A.I.M. or HYDRA. Doesn't look like the kind of genetic lab Sinister would put together, either.
My guess is it's an Incursion site that the Iso-Saurs got to before we found it. I'm bringing back some items of particular interest. |
Covert Task: Icarus[]
Quest 9[]
Start[]
| Hank Pym:
|
These Ultrons are a mess, but I've recovered some data impressions that might be useful.
Something Sunfire learned from Ultron sent him looking for demons. It's not clear what, but-- |
| Tony Stark:
|
Doesn't matter. That's the lead we're looking for. Agent, you're demon-hunting now. |
Complete[]
| Tony Stark:
|
This is not looking good. All of these demons are babbling about Mephisto. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Sunfire's after Mephisto? That's nuts. He can't take Mephisto alone. |
| Hank Pym:
|
He might not be trying to. |
| Tony Stark:
|
You're cute when you're being indirect, Pym, but how about you just say what you want to say? |
| Hank Pym:
|
That's the thing, I'm not sure yet. I'm still unscrambling the data from these Ultrons. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Well, while Hank puts that puzzle together, we better find Mephisto before Sunfire gets in way over his head. |
Augmented Iso-8[]
Start[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Empowered Iso-8 is broadly useful, no doubt about that. But perhaps we should be thinking... smaller. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Well, smaller is your specialty. |
| Hank Pym:
|
No, I mean more refined than Empowered Iso-8, more focused! A targeted Iso-8 infusion, keyed to an individual metahuman's unique powerset, could amplify their strengths far more effectively. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Um, okay, but how would you-- |
Mr. Fantastic:
|
By creating a superfluid condensate, yes! But the energy requirements-- |
| Hank Pym:
|
I have the necessary equipment at my lab. Let's go! |
| Tony Stark:
|
Uh, yeah, you go do that physics and chemistry stuff, guys. I'll just be over here, engineering... things. Just let me know when you're done. |
Complete[]
| Hank Pym:
|
Success! We can now enhance an individual's abilities directly with Iso-8. However, Tony, we need you for the last step. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Really? I mean, of course, obviously the technology required to-- |
| Mr. Fantastic:
|
We need a name for it. |
| Tony Stark:
|
...what? Oh, um... Augmented? |
| Mr. Fantastic:
|
Yes! Augmented Iso-8! |
| Hank Pym:
|
Brilliant. |
| Mr. Fantastic:
|
Perfect. Thank you, Tony. |
| Tony Stark:
|
I hate you guys. |
