Iron Man and Captain America: Heroes United Page #3

or captain Rogers.

Run a full spectrum analysis.

Test complete.

The composition is made up of minerals and

rare Clay found in the baltic highlands.

Well, that narrows

it down a little.

Cross-reference with

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s list

of taskmaster's

suspected hideouts.

Right away, sir.

(SCANNING)

I have one suspected location.

An abandoned military

bunker in Southern Estonia.

That's it. Hold

the fort, Jarvis.

Very good, sir.

(GROANING)

Impressive.

A lesser man would

have been obliterated.

(BEEPING) Great

leader, we did it!

We have successfully recorded

captain America's fighting skills.

They are incredibly

clean and organized.

This man is truly a

remarkable specimen.

The captain's skills are

ready for your use.

Excellent.

Your service will be

greatly rewarded.

You could've just paid

to copy my skills.

I'm a better fighter than

that patriot any day.

Doubtful.

You are a mercenary,

sorely lacking what captain

America possesses.

Courage, resolve and

dedication to an ideal.

Qualities perfect

for my new army.

So what happens to him now?

Now I employ the second

function of this device.

Not only can it copy brainwaves,

it can write them, like

data onto a hard drive.

(MACHINE SOUNDING)

Initiating hydra

indoctrination sequence.

Your world is about

to change, soldier.

Soon you will know nothing but

absolute obedience to hydra.

And you will answer only to me!

I wish you had lips, skully,

so you could kiss

my star-spangled...

(SCREAMING)

No!

No! No!

HYDRA TROOPERS:
Hail hydra!

Hail the red skull!

Hail hydra! Hail the red skull!

Hail hydra! Hail the red skull!

Hail hydra! Hail the red skull!

Hail hydra! Hail the red skull!

Hail hydra! Hail the red skull!

(CHANTING CONTINUES)

(RED SKULL LAUGHING)

(GROANS)

(STRAINING) Get out of my head!

(GROANING)

Resistance is useless.

Great leader, your volunteers

have been prepared for the serum.

And here I wanted to watch

captain America's will

bend like a weed

beneath my boot.

No matter.

Taskmaster, stay here and make sure

the captain's conversion is complete.

Do not turn your back

on him for a second.

Whatever you wish.

And his shield.

(GRUNTS)

Very well, great leader.

I would curb that sharp

tongue of yours, taskmaster.

Lest it cuts your throat.

Hmm.

(CAPTAIN AMERICA GROANS)

JARVIS:
Atmospheric

re-entry complete.

I recommend initiating

deceleration.

Sir? You can slow

down any time.

Shouldn't have flown

off without cap.

Captain Rogers clearly allowed

himself to be captured.

He was reckless. That's

not how cap does things.

He got himself in trouble.

I know it.

Sir, we are approaching the target

coordinates at an unsafe speed.

Knock, knock.

AUTOMATED VOICE:

Intruder alert!

Hello, I'm looking for

a friend of mine.

Tall, broad-shouldered,

dressed like a flag.

(WEAPONS FIRING)

Destroy him!

You know, you try and

be a nice guy...

(ALL GROAN)

I'll tell you what, you fellas

take your 10-minute coffee break.

I'll go find my friend.

I don't get taskmaster.

I mean, he's an accomplished bad

guy, he could build a lair anywhere.

Why some dingy cold war bunker?

JARVIS:
Location is everything.

I scan life forms

five meters ahead.

IRON MAN:
I don't

think that's cap.

Ready? Ready.

Open fire! (WEAPONS FIRING)

Well, you gotta admire

their persistence.

Activate the sonic disruptors.

JARVIS:
Charging now, sir.

(ALL GROAN)

Sheesh, can we just get to

the boss fight already?

Figures cap'd end up in the gym.

I don't think I wanna work

out on this thing though.

We gotta find him, Jarvis.

IRON MAN:
Cap! You in here?

Nice pool.

Or should I say hot tub.

JARVIS:
This is an extremely

concentrated form of hydrochloric acid.

Lethal.

I wasn't planning

on taking a dip.

CAPTAIN AMERICA:
Stark! Huh?

Whoa, hey cap! Same team here!

Death to all who oppose hydra!

Oh, great.

Aw, no, cap. What've

they done to you?

They showed me the truth.

The strength that will

be our new world order!

Whoa!

JARVIS:
Biometric scans indicate

the captain's brain waves

have been radically altered to those

of a completely different person.

Different person? Who?

Greetings, stark.

Oh, him.

Terrific.

Allow me introduce you

to my latest agent.

Sure, he's wearing less festive

colors, but I think we've met.

No.

This captain America shares

my vision of the future!

Yeah, speaking of vision, this

is strictly pay per view,

so get lost!

(GRUNTS)

For hydra! For the red skull!

Cap, I thought we decided

you were gonna be like me.

This ain't me.

Everything always has

to be about you, stark.

You're selfish and conceited.

Okay. That's it!

I don't know what the

skull did to you, buddy,

but you gotta snap out of it!

(CHUCKLES)

Ah!

Now stop shooting! Don't

make me hurt you.

(WEAPON FIRING)

Don't make me laugh.

Okay. This is your last chance!

I warned you!

Now it gets real!

(GRUNTS)

Wait. What is that?

Ah!

Laugh that off, stark.

JARVIS:
Sir, the armor's

been compromised.

We've lost power

to the thrusters.

Really, Jarvis?

I hadn't noticed.

Remind me to remove stating the

obvious from your programing.

Now how do we get this

stupid thing off?

Ah!

Can't reach it...

AUTOMATED VOICE:
Stark armor

security codes, accessed.

Bingo.

Now you will learn why

hydra shall reign supreme!

Gotcha!

Ah!

(GROANS)

Nice one, stark, but

you're too late.

How's he doing, Jarvis?

JARVIS:
His brainwaves

are normalizing.

My scans indicate captain Rogers

is stuck in a rem-like dream state.

Time to wake up, buddy.

(GROANS)

Sorry about that, cap. You okay?

Uh...

I just had the worst nightmare

a soldier could have.

Where am I?

Well, you're back

where you belong.

Hydra hijacked your brain.

Hydra?

You really had me worried there.

Here, lemme give ya a hand.

(GRUNTS) Ah!

AUTOMATED VOICE:
Stark

encryption decoded. Verify.

Verification complete.

I have you now, iron man.

I thought I fixed you!

(GRUNTS)

You did. Don't you know a

spontaneous plan when you see one?

I guess this means

I have to lose?

Just make it look good.

You are no match

for hydra, fool!

Says you, traitor!

Ah!

JARVIS:
Sir, system

reboot has begun!

Great news.

(SCREAMS) Oh, it hurts!

Skull's programing must be strong

for you to finish your own friend.

By the red skull's command,

take me to our great leader.

Yeah, well, he's not gonna

be the boss forever.

What do you think about the

skull bowing down to us?

Old red and gruesome would keep you

a slave, I'll make you a partner.

Join me and we'll turn hydra into a

twin-headed dragon and rule it all!

To a new hydra?

To a new hydra!

So when do we take

out the skull?

We leave for Antarctica soon.

Antarctica, eh?

That's all I needed to hear.

(GRUNTS)

Ha!

Hmph, so you broke

skull's programing.

He brainwashed the wrong guy.

You're the one who

wants to be him.

Red skull is nothing to me.

Let's see him do this!

You gonna hold your

breath forever?

I didn't want to interrupt
