Recruiting more people
Things were going very good.
After his precious Honeybear gave the press conference, the world hated more the rogues.
People didn’t want them pardoned. So the few government officials that tried to offer that idea, were quickly shut up.
Ivy was set to go, she can join any mission now. The others however must heal from what the Joker did to them, specially Harley.
She was making good process, and they began using BARF to help her, he always stayed with her for support.
But, since on,y Ivy can join anytime, they need more staff.
Lucky for them, they got some people on the look.
They have decided to aproch Scott Lang and invite him to join, he can serve his sentence as an Avenger.
Lang had sent a letter to Tony, unlike the ones sent by Rogers, he did open this one. There was no delusion, no excuses, the man admitted he was wrong, and sincerely apologized.
Tony aprechested the honesty, so he had no problems with him joining.
But Lang was reuniting with his family, and Tony won’t take him away from them, so they can ask him, and his accociate Hope Van Dyne later.
So he has too people on the look, Stephen Strange, and Carol Danvers.
There was also talks for a pardon just for Barnes.
Tony honestly didn’t know what to think, the man killed his parents, but he was brainwashed, it was Hydra, and unlike Rogers, Barnes did look sorry on Siberia. But then again. he did help beat down Tony, so he was not gonna get involved.
Harley and Ivy on the other hand, were extremely against Barnes getting a pardon.
But they can worry about that in another time.
Tony found Harley in his lab.
“Guess what ?”
“What ?”
“Rogers sent another letter.”
“Fuck, that is the 12th.”
“I am getting a hobby by destroying them, it’s fun.”
“I bet, you haven’t read them ?”
“I.....did read the first two I got, but then the delusions got to hard, and I stopped.”
“Good Harls, Don’t let your pretty head get damaged by the delusions.”
It was at that moment, Tony realized he called her pretty.
“Ja, you called me pretty, don’t worry, you’re handsome too.”
His heart pounded on his chest.
“Anyway, I need to see this two people soon.”
“Who ?”
“Stephen Strange, he was a doctor but got in a bad crash, his hands were damaged permantly, so he disappeared to Nepal soon after, then he came back as a full sorcerer, and saved Hong Kong. Now he leaves on a sanctum in New York.”
“Sounds cool, who is the other one.” Ivy said as she came in.
“Captain Carol Danvers, and she IS a Captain, got kipnaped by aliens, then came back with super powers, and I mean super. Phill got her.”
“Who is Phil ?”
“The one good thing that came out of SHIELD, I never liked that organization, but Phil and I always got along. He was the one man that followed what the organization was supposed to do, protect and help. Phil died at the hands of Loki just before New York, but Fury used some really questionable methods to bring him back to life. It was that that made Phil realize that SHIELD is not what it stood for, that it was not what he wanted. So when SHIELD fell, he ditched Fury and the council, he got with some agents that agreed with him that this was not how it had to be. And decided to build something new, something that actually protected. He contacted me, and after he asurred me he was not a ghost, I agreed to help him. The organization is called SWORD, and is fully dedicated to protect the people.”
“Wow, impressive there the guy managed to stay as pure as he did while working in that place.”
“Yes, Anyway, he used SHIELD’s old servers to contact Danvers, she will get here and talk to Rhodey and Vision. I got Strange, you too can come, as I have a plan after that.”
“What ?”
“For you two to meet Peter.”
The three got to the sanctum, and were teleported inside, what the hell.
“Ok, what the fuck just happened ?” Ivy said.
“Tony Stark, Harleen Quinzel, Pamela Isley, what can I do for you ?”
Stephen came down flying.
Ok, that’s normal. Well normal for his weird life.
“Dr. Strange, firs of all, congratulations for your engagement to Dr. Palmer.”
“Thank you.”
“Second, we are here to ask you to join the Avengers.”
“I already signed the accords Mr. Stark. But I am not sure if I can be a full Avenger.”
“Other duties, that’s ok, we get that. But look, we need magical personal. First of all, there is gonna be a time when we need to catch Maximoff, and magic would help us get her easer, and there are other threats out there that need your help to take them down.”
Stephen thought about it.
“Chrisitine will be protected right ?”
“Nithing will happen to her.”
“All right then, I accept. But the duties of Sorcerer Supreme, and Christine, will come first.”
“Great, I love family, so as long as you don’t do what Rogers does for Barnes then I am fine.”
“Oh don’t worry, I won’t go that far, not even close. Although I must ask for this.”
“What ?”
“My people want Maximoff out fast, she is disgracing the name of the magicians, could we take her out soon ?”
“Don’t worry doc, Maximoff will be out as soon as we can.”
“Great, then you can count me in.”
Rhodey And Vision waited for Carol and Phil.
“Colonel ?”
“Yes Viz ?”
“Can I ask a question ?”
“Sure man, we are friends.”
“Are Dr. Quinn and Dr, Isley like Tony ? Chaos People ?”
“They are, Howard kept them hidden because they got abused as girls because of their powers. That’s why they are so close to Tony, also, call them Harley and Ivy, they don’t like being called Drs, and called me Rhodey Viz, we are friends and my friends call me Rhodey.”
“Thanks, Rhodey.”
A car came in.
Phil came out of it, a blond woman besides him.
“Phil “
“Rhodey.”
“Sorry about the death of agent Gonzales.”
“Robert had tons of heart problems, but he died happy, knowing he got to see a organization that had no secrets, and truly protected the people, my good friend Mack has taken his place, he is perfect for our board.”
“Hey, we trust you man, if you say that’s the guy, then we belive you.”
He looked st Carol.
“Captain.”
“Colonel.”
“Has Phil here told you all.”
“Told me that the old heroes went rogue, that you are assembling new ones, and that you wanted me in.”
“I head you have commitments in space.”
“Not anymore, the Skrulls are safe, and now the galaxy has new protectors. The Guardians of the Galaxy is their name, they already save it twice, they don’t need me.”
“So, are you interested ?”
“I am, I will read the accords fully first, I have liked what I have read so far, but want to continue to reas them.”
“Tske all the time you need Captain, what Rogers never understood is that people aren’t forced to sign the accords, only if they want to.”
Carol smiled, and came inside.
Tony then sent him a text, Strange had agreed.
Rhodey smiled, with that, they had 10 members, with Lang and Van Dyne it could be 12.
Things were looking good.
