Tony then started his experiments with Apocalypse’s blood till Wanda woke up.
After Wanda woke up, He asked her to bath and prepared a custom red silk dress which was obviously not as simple as it seemed.
He fed Wanda some food cooked with his own hands, and then he took her to the Mind Stone and helped her guide her power in the Stone.
Wanda very quickly got the hang of it and started explaining Tony about the structure of Mind Stone. She also tried to connect Tony’s mind to the stone and succeeded. Tony saw an entire cosmos, crafted as a mind inside of the stone and it fascinated him to no end.
“This…..This is…JARVIS! Immediately connect to the stone! Use the psionic connection, energy connection, or anything that works!”
[Initiating Connection] [Psionic Connection…..Failed] [Energy Connection…..Failed] [Electrical Connection……Failed].

The notifications coming from Jarvis were of all failures and Tony was frustrated and angry so much that his eyes started to turn Red. He quickly suppressed his nerves and returned back to his tranquil state and sent Wanda off to practice the new spell she just learnt from her family scriptures. She also needed to find her family heritage which Tony said could only be found by Scarlet spells.
‘I need Ultron! Dammit! The creation of the Stone itself! If he is in some random hard-disk in someone’s garage then it would take years to find him! Jarvis, We have no choice, We create Ultron! Again! Just like the Original Tony did but this time….The outcome will be different!’
He made a shell and extracted a digital image of the inner structure of the Mind Stone inside of it. He connected it to the internet, and the newly extracted Ultron, under Tony’s control gained self awareness.
As Ultron gained his awareness and was watching the destruction caused by humans on internet, Tony had a crazy smile on his face. This was probably the first time that Tony had let his maddening smile on his face! He was excited!
“Jarvis…..Do it!” Said Tony while looking at a blue hologram of complex structure which was immediately attacked by a similar, but bigger yellow hologram beside it. Tony used his Energy Manipulation to hinder in Ultron’s defense and broke into an eerie chuckle when seeing the progress bar.
[Brute Force Attack……Progress 59%…62%…67%…75%]He could also hear some confused and pained wails of a newly born Ultron but he was too excited to pay any heed to it. Ultron was the Child of Mind Stone, If Jarvis could absorb him, Tony could understand the entirety of the Mind Stone!
Although Tony was being like an excited kid who just heard that the school will be off for a month but he was still a genius Psychopath. He made sure that Jarvis doesn’t gain self awareness, and was looking at its source coding to eliminate anything even close to awareness.
After Jarvis had successfully absorbed Ultron, Tony reworked Jarvis’s coding in his brain and restarted it. Since Jarvis was connected to Tony’s soul, Tony felt a weird pain in his brain for a minute before Jarvis restarted to a new interface. It had upgraded.
Tony’s eyes suddenly flashed with a yellow light and in response to that, the mind stone started flashing too. Tony smiled at the Mind Stone which was now flashing and vibrating as he raised his hands and the Mind Stone flew from its magnetic confinement and started revolving around Tony’s arms before landing at his palms. He suddenly clenched his fists to release some yellow power from his fist to his entire body while it finally went to his head and disappeared, making Tony close his eyes in pleasure.

Magneto’s body started twitching while Tony was standing near his head with eyes closed as his hand was on Magneto’s brain. After Magneto’s body stopped trembling, Tony opened his eyes and went out of his lab.

Wanda was in a large underground bunker practicing her spells when suddenly she heard footsteps behind her and she stopped. She turned around to find Tony coming towards her with a bright smile which immediately brightened her mood too as she hadn’t seen him smile like that.
Tony came to her and suddenly embraced her in a hug. She was startled to say the least and as she was raising her own hands to wrap around him, he pulled her away and looked her in the eye with excitement.
“It Worked! IT WORKED! I have something for you.” Said Tony
Before Wanda could say anything, Tony made a hand motion and suddenly a yellow light came from his palms and entered Wanda’s Head. Wanda became a statue as the yellow energy entered her mind and she saw a beautiful woman with red hairs travelling in the darkness of the night. She saw her smile and felt warm in her heart. She saw people around her call her Natalya and other as Scarlet witch.
As Tony was showing Wanda her mother, He was doing something else in her brain while she was occupied. Tony first needed to purge her off the unstable emotions and then leave a mark in her mind. Tony however didn’t touch her memories as he was still not proficient in it and was sure that the video he was showing her would get interrupted by her memories if he tried anything funny. He kept fixing her emotional scars and planting some other marks at different deep places of her mind and after he had done everything he wanted to, The video in Wanda’s mind came to an end.
Wanda’s eyes were moist and she was shaking while she clutched at Tony’s arm and smiled. Her mind had changed greatly and she felt a sense of peace she never felt before.
Tony kissed her forehead and said a few things before he left her to think about a few things alone with her now clear head and practice her spells.

Pepper was in a meeting with many V.V. when suddenly the door to the room was slammed open to reveal Tony in a loose shirt and jacket.
“To..Tony?” Said Pepper with confusion and shock as she suddenly saw Tony at the door.
Everyone in the room was greatly surprised while most of them stood up at the arrival of the real boss of the Stark Industries.
“Hey! I need to talk to you” Said Tony as he started walking inside the room while completely ignoring all the questions and greetings from the Board of Directors.
As he was walking though, he suddenly lifted his hand up in a direction of a certain old man and instantly a video of him selling some board secrets to ‘Hammer corps’ started playing above his head.
Everyone was angry to see this video and before they could comment, Tony did the same to 4 more people and proof of similar traitorous acts started playing on their head from a hologram.
“Let’s get out of here.” Said Tony grabbing Pepper by her hand and taking her away with him without even saying something about the Board of Directors he just exposed.

Tony then went to an underground bunker in his suit and entered it as the Iron Man suit became his usual black suit.
As Tony entered, he saw around 50 people in front of him in tattered clothes and several Iron Man suits controlled by Jarvis guarding them. People then started noticing Tony too and as they saw his smirk, a shiver ran down their spine as they compared it to that of a devil.
Tony then started walking towards the people as they started walking away from him in fear. The gate of the bunker started closing in and a scream of an elderly lady was heard just before the doors were completely sealed shut.

‘Now my control on The Mind Stone should be pretty good’ Thought Tony as he was walking towards Agent Hill who was attending Nick Fury in his medical room. Tony entered the said room and closed the door behind him.
.

.
“Sir, Director S.H.I.E.L.D is here to meet you” Said a young woman in a secretary’s uniform.
“Oh? Send him in” replied General Ross.”
“Hey General” Came a voice as the secretary exited the room and Ross saw Tony coming in and shutting the door behind him.
.
.
.
“Madam President. Director S.H.I.E.L.D has asked for an appointment with you.” Said a secretary towards a woman who was signing some papers.
“Hmm? Is it urgent? If it is then you can arrange a meeting at lunch. We will eat with him.” replied the President with a raised eyebrow.
“Certainly Madam President” replied the secretary before leaving the room.
