[1-3] The Nose

[The Vision]

The Vision gazed at the diseased man he had seen in the facility prior to the flight. He was now executing commands over the survivors of the crash. Fascinating.

The Vision scowled as the surrounding survivors began to shuffle around, making efforts to rescue those who were still trapped in the wreckage. Vision’s programming pulled his attention towards the survivors, but the Vision argued it was more important to scan potential threats.

0 life forms detected.

The Vision repeated the process, trying to find any evidence of the soldier’s humanity. At best, the Vision was able to detect that Okor was a biological anomaly. He was unlike anything in the Vision’s database which, given all of his adventures with the Avengers both subterranean and extraterrestrial, was quite extensive.

At that point, the Vision heard groans, that of metal and of man, and his programming executed an override. The Vision turned his head to scan the source of the noise.

Marcus Wright was struggling against some piece of the aircraft. Marcus Wright, the possible source of the Skynet contagi0010111111

Wwwwwith a shake of his head, the Vision mmmmanaged to shake off SSssksksskynet from his programming. Despite the fact that the Vision had managed to make the program dormant, it had somehow turned itself on again. This was was wawawawawes was a concern.

He accessed his programming again, this time trying to purge all foreign pieces of code, even some files which seemed native. As he did so, he heard his own voice screaming in pain. However, nobody else seemed to hear this voice. After tracking the sound, the Vision realized that the voice was from a corrupted audio file, titled tearingmeapart.mp3.

> delete tearingmeapart.mp3
deleted

This should hold off Skynet for the meantime. Meanwhile, Marcus Wright was still struggling against the formidable shard of metal. Someone was whimpering underneath it.

The Vision smiled and walked casually over to Marcus, and said, “I believe I may be of some assistance, Mr. Wright.”
