Chapter 45 - 45) Declaration Of War

MEETING ROOM

Everyone sat down at the long table facing Tony who was standing in front of his hologram screen.

"New York is about to be attacked by an organization called Ursurption, whose goal is to take control of the city and later the entire country. They're a team of mutants who believe themselves to be the rightful kings of the world," said Tony.

"Why attack now?" asked Black Bolt.

"I assume it's due to the combat training, they want to use the fact that we're already worn out to sweep us out fast with no problem," answered Tony. 

"But how would they know all this, it's not public information when the training would begin or even where it would be, right?" questioned Peter.

"We believe there to be a spy in our ranks, everyone here I've done a serious security check on so don't worry none of us is a mole. I've already narrowed it down to a few people so I want you Black Widow, as the master spy, to find out who it is from the list I just sent to you. After you've extracted the information from him I want you to join us in New York for the battle." said Tony clicking a few buttons on his watch and a ding sound coming from Black Widow's. 

"How did we get this information?" asked Shadow. 

"Doctor Strange has captured one of the powerful figures in the group called The Scarlet Witch and has forwarded us his new-found knowledge, though he is not joining us on this mission and he said he's too busy saving universes," replied Tony. 

"Wait? The multiverse is real?" asked Peter.

"You can have your mind blown later but not right now kid. Anyway, we know the names of the main big bads of the group along with their powers which I'll be sending over to all of you. The only issue is Vulcan, the big honcho of Usurpation. We have little to no data on him, all we know is his appearance but we know nothing about his powers so if anyone spots him do not confront him alone and call for backup. If he can order someone like The Scarlet Witch around who knows how powerful this guy is." continued Tony.

"Our satellite can't spot them for some unknown reason but we know they came prepared with a small army. They are heavily armed and even have access to Helicopters like the one shot own before along with a few tanks. We are currently talking with the Military for support but we believe that they might have hostages or bombs planted around the city to stop the Military from interfering. After the attack just now, it's clear that they just want a fight with us, and so they'll get one." added Capt. 

"So what's the plan?" asked Hawkeye. 

"We don't have one, and we're not going to have one" replied Tony.

"That doesn't seem like the best idea, shouldn't we at least make one?" said Black Bolt.

"Agreed" added Behemoth. 

'How can I forget that such a big guy is in the room' thought Peter looking at Behemoth surprised that he was in the meeting and he hadn't noticed.

"We can't make one since we know so little and we don't know why our satellite isn't working as only I have access to it, so until it's up and running we'll be going in blind. Due to this, we can't plan anything out, we'll make a plan on the spot and hope for the best," replied Tony.

The door knocked before a man opened it, "Mr Stark, I think you should turn on the TV." he said.

"Now's not the time," replied Tony.

"I really think you should," replied the man. 

Tony listened picked up the remote from the table and turned on the TV, with a sudden evacuation order being played on every channel that appeared. 

"It has come to our attention that the terrorist organization of superhumans called Usurption had declared war on New York and the Avengers. They say that if any third parties or the military join in on the fight they'll explode bombs that have been planted all over the city and may even go nuclear. We don't know how they managed to gain access to this amount of weaponry or if this is a bluff but the Military has already been given the order to stand down, leaving to the Avengers. We will now play the video we have been sent." monologued the anchor before the screen switched. 

A man with messy black hair and beard, with an open shirt sat on a chair in what looked like a tent. "Hello, New York and the American government. I'm Vulcan the leader of Usurpation and I'm here to declare war on you, if any other parties want to enter our little battle I will set off bombs around New York that have hundreds of American citizens trapped with it, and if you continue to try I'll resort to Nuclear force. It's time for the superior race, us mutants, to take our rightful place as leaders over you pitiful things. You'll all answer for the crimes that you've committed against our kind, especially the American government. We'd like to ask the so-called righteous heroes of the Avengers to join our cause. I really hope you join us, the right side but I will respect your decision and try to kill you all painlessly if you do try to interfere. You have 30 minutes to respond before we start our attack. I hope to hear from you all soon. Goodbye." he said before the screen turned black as Tony switched the TV off. 

"He's a psycho," said Hawkeye.

 "What did you expect, all our enemies are" replied Stark. 

"How long will it take us to get to New York from here?" asked Capt. 

"Around 30 minutes" replied Stark. 

"Great," replied Capt. "Everyone get ready as soon as possible, in 5 minutes we'll all meet at the roof where we will fly there and kick some ass. You may not officially be Avengers yet but today you are, it's time to be heroes folks," he added.
