Natasha Romanoff has posed:
The increased activity of Hydra had lead to a number of increasing fights among heroes and members of the Nazi aligned terrorist organization. Among the less than pleasant discoveries were use of energy weapons, alien technology. Some had been seized in melees and was under analysis by various specialists. One such cluster of alien weaponry being analysed was at an Oscorp Facility outside of New York City.
    The evening shift was just on it's way out of the multiple-story, heavily reinforced facility at the end of the working day as it was getting dark.
    Right in time for the hevily reinforced front entrance of the facility, designed to take an attack from foes such as the Rhino.. Would be cleanly blasted through, the doors being flung to the side!
    Hydra troopers smashing in with weapons chanting, "Hail Hydra! Surrender and you will live!"
    Accompanied in the back by a man wearing a mostly red battle suit... Missing half his right arm, instead having some sort of giant sonic cannon upon it. "Make it snappy. I'm not getting paid by the hour here."
    KLAW.

Steve Rogers has posed:
It was as if the universe wanted to give him a change of pace. Steve Rogers had not just poured himself a fresh cup of coffee and settled into the chair in the Assembly Room used by the Avenger on monitor duty when the alarm went off. No, he actually had just finished emptying his coffee mug and given an approving nod at the new blend that had appeared in the options available to the team. Steve was just about to rise to go get a refill when the alarm sounded, prompting him to send out an alert.

Not long after, a Quinjet was hurtling through the air carrying Captain America, Black Panther and Antman to the scene of the attack. "I'll pass overhead for you to both jump in and then set down nearby," he tells them as he stealths the craft, making it blend in with the background as Cap tips the nose over to bleed of altitude as he comes in low overtop the Oscorp facility's parking lot.

The back ramp opens to the air as Cap slows the plane just a bit so they make their departures using their own particular abilities. The jet's engines can be heard even if it's hard to spot as Captain American flies on past, setting it down where it should be out of the way of any ensuing fight, but not too far should they have to use it for pursuit later.

Scott Lang has posed:
Scott had been in the midst of working up the nerve to attempt to talk Cap into playing Fortnite with him. He figured the super soldier might be the perfect partner to get him that elusive win, especially because he was so trusting that he wouldn't expect Lang's inevitable betrayal on his way to a solo win. But then evil had to go and make a big stinky mess and now they were in the Quinjet and heading off to the rescue.

Scott is very well aware that he's riding along with international treasures and only hopes he doesn't besmirch their good names. He's never even smirched before.

He leaps out at Cap's command, shrinking down to miniscule size as he fires off his suits rockets and jets downward towards the incoming Hydra troops. "Doesn't look like they're doing subtle today, guys. I think they might be cranky," he says, zooming past one Hydra soldier and yanking out one of his mustache hairs at high speed.

"OW!"

As he buzzes, Scott's helmet takes video of the big guy with the sonic weapon and sends the data to both the others and the Avengers database for identification.

T'Challa has posed:
Black Panther was in his suit of course he had gotten the invite to come as Hydra needed to be stopped, though Klaw being there was a bonus though wether he knew that as of now is up to the report given before they dropped. T'Challa runs, and jumps off the back as if he had done this a few times, as which he had. He would stop to turn on the cloaking of the suit as he fell the short distance landing as quiet as a whisper crouched on all fours ready to leap if needed., though He smiled a bit under his mask that the man actually listened as no-one would see it as he would hear over his radio, "I saw that Brother." the accent heavy as T'Challa's. "This is Shuri on the wire I have a satalite moving over your area that I borrowed. To give heat signitures inside the building!"

Black Panther had watched Scotts jump, and decided to follow the stealth approach, as he said finally over the Radio, "Antman, watch that sonic weapon.. It might disrupt your tech." as he goes his own way quietly approaching the situation by moving away from the large sound of jet engines above him.

Belinda Gutierrez has posed:
"I should not o/ --be here-- /o...." a tiny voice in the back of Belinda's mind sings for the umpteenth time. And yet, it was like matching itself against the call of destiny-- the scent of something horrible, an acrid burning foul to keen senses. The sound of something-- gunshots? Banging? Something...

And a jog out of the city suddenly become so very much more. Unmarked trucks, zooming by. The sight, just glimpsed, of that unmistakable Hydra emblem. Blood running cold. Hot. Ice and fire. A nightmare from the past, rebranded for the present.

"...Nazis..." she growls, whispers, and all thought of restraint from interfering goes out the window. Crackling bone. Stretching skin. Sensations and sounds and a burning fury that blocks all else from mind.

The fence bordering the facility is comically not enough as the creature of steel and silver and moonlight bursts from the clearing-- broad daylight! --lunging for the Oscorp building at a dead, surging run. Outside, charging heedlessly as she races in. Single-minded.

Natasha Romanoff has posed:
THe Quinjet's arrival is announced over by the sound of teh engines roaring. Even with it's approach completely stealthed, it's an alert of a sort. This is enough for the Hydra troopers outside to start rapidly erecting a defense. Setting up several heavy guns along the perimeter and going to crouch along whatever cover is inherent to the area. The various scientists, maintenance workers, engineers, security.. Everyone inside that has not hidden is being rapidly marched up and over to the main room, several Hydra guards with weapons aimed over at them. Ant-Man's quick stealth run is completley unnoticed, and he can tell that the Hydra fanatics are rapidly going to round up eveyrone they can to use as hostages. guns pointed at them, various other guards going to rapidly put them in restraints.
    A sadistic looking Hydra officer with a scar along the left side of his face would look maniacally. "And now your lives will not only rest upon your own cooperation.."
    T'Challa's quiet approach is also completley unnoticed, even as he goes down silently ahd maneuvers along towards the area. The sattellite can pick up everyone being crowded into the front entrance ofo the building. Smaller dots deeper within likely people going to barricade themselves inside safer areas. A few going towards the center of the lab complex. Likely Hydra troopres after whatever was inside.
    Belinda's on the approach definitely gets the attention from the troopers along the perimeter. They're rapidly going to try and greet the being they take as a monster with yells,s wears, and lots of gunfire! Heavy machine guns going to open fire on her!

Steve Rogers has posed:
From where he set the cloaked plane down off to the side of the facility, Cap emerges, shield on his arm as he runs towards the building. His voice goes out over the Avengers comms: <<I'm heading inside. Will see if I can't stop them before they get to their objective. Or worst case, flank them and try to hit them from behind.>>

Steve sprints towards the building, heading for where the building has bend in it as a wing juts off. He hits the corner, jumping up onto one wall, then the other, then back to the first as his momentum is converted to carrying him upwards. A swing of his shield breaks a window in a stairwell and he grabs hold of the sill and pulls himself inside.

<<I'm in. Will try to find the labs.>>

Scott Lang has posed:
Since Cap and Panther are both doing the infiltration sort of thing and the new person who seems to be arriving isn't anyone he knows, and so they might be in danger because they're not super duper trained Avengers personnel like him, well, he's just going to have to do what he does best.

Be loud and annoying.

With their close quarters, Ant-Man uses a super-charged bolt of his gauntlet sting to fry a whole cluster of Hydra troops at once. He leaps from amidst them and starts running atop helmets, growing up to full size as he goes, flinging a few shrink discs at the heavy guns being set up to turn them into cute little Army toys. Well. Potentially lethal little Army toys. But just try pushing those buttons with your big jumbo fingers, Nazi pigs!

"HEY! YOU BIG EVIL NINNIES! Stop picking on Norman Osborn, didn't God do that already? Have you seen his hairline?!?"

T'Challa has posed:
T'challa stops as he goes over the map, and the people's location so he can plot a path to avoid them, and for now that ment climbing down the building to look into the top floor window as he hung beside it he tries to slide it open, and inside finding it locked he extends a claw and jimmy's the lock then silently opening the window to flip inside. Over the radio he listens to Cap, before adding, "Top Floor, I am in.. Moving down" as he would start to do so quietly stealthfully taking down anyone who might get in his way.. Then he hears gunshots, "I hear shots, who is that?" he asks as not sure who started it though he picked up the pace. He hits the stair-well door hard fliping it open to see if there are any in there. "They have hostages, can you secure an escape route Antman?" he knows the time scale just shortened greatly.

He needed to hurry, so instead of taking the stairs, he jumps down the center to take the express route to the first floor. "Seconds out AntMan." as he knew if there were people on the second floor, and even the maybe third floor that was coming after him from behind, but he did not want anyone facing Klaw alone.

Belinda Gutierrez has posed:
Chattering guns explode on the air; fire and iron rending the air with well-placed shots. A barrage, an onslaught that the beast-woman deals with in her own fashion: bullets blast into the towering frame, the physical force bursting through bone, fur, fabric, flesh. The wolfgirl goes down, a howl of agonized frustration rising on the air, buried under the onslaught of weapons' fire. Falling--

--snarling as she rises again, bloody chunks and holes sealing themselves before the troopers? astonished eyes.

Distraction! Mostly. In eight feet of fury, as opposed to Ant-Man's superior distracting magnificence!

".../ow/," she remarks non-chalantly, brushing her shoulder as she glares, every tooth glittering with a lupine grin. She begins her approach again, long strides eating the space between. No more running now; this time she strides forward, vicious intent sketched on her every inch.

Someone hits falsetto-- a sergeant? "Shoot, fire, FIRE! FIRE NOW!" And machineguns respond with a vibrant, renewed blaze--!

Natasha Romanoff has posed:
Outside, with the bullets seemingly only serving to slow her down, a couple of the Hydra personnel are each going to load up a pair of RPG's, going to aim them over in her direction, and get them ready to fire. Even as other members of the group are yelling, swearing, and almost seem to be getting desperate or panicking. Maybe they're made of a little firmer thing than their fellow fanatics. LIkely they're just so stupid tehy don't realize what sort of thing they're up against. It's the smart ones that know when they're outmatched that are teh ones prone to freakout after all.

Ant-Man's entrance is broken by a series of troopers going to spray weapons fire over at him as he sends them scattering! Sevearl guns shrink on down as they're left inside suddenly without heavy support! This has Klaw turn around, moving to line up his sonic cannon over at Ant-Man, and go to quip ever so pleasantly, "Bug off." Right as he goes to unleash a blast that could disintegrate through a bank vault's secure door as other troopers would scatter!
    A few, at least, have the residual memory to rather than snap thier weapons over at Ant-Man to keep thier weapons over on the hostages, even though they're not openly being threatened in the midst of the chaos and the heroes breaking in.

Captain America landing is quickly able to get a layout of the facility. The labs are (perhaps surprisingly) on the lowest level of the facility. The most secure, and the safest. As opposed to being in the penthouse suites like many skyscrapers would have when they worked for technological firms.

We are possibly looking over at you, Mister Stark. Yes possibly indeed.

It's simple to get on down to them. THere only seem to be (so far) a half dozen or so troopers racing on down deeper into the building. The other dots deeper in have gone still in what the blueprints indicate are smaller rooms. Closets, bathrooms.. Anywhere they can get to cover.

And as Black Panther goe sto land, right after Klaw has sent off his shot over at Ant-Man, he goes to grin over at Black Panther, "They didn't say I'd get to fight a king tonight. And kill one." As the cloaking field around T'Challa flickers for just an instant from the landing, Klaw's cannon goes to rapidly swivel over at him, aims..

And fires.

Scott Lang has posed:
Ant-Man sees the incoming attack from Klaw, of which T'Challa warned him a couple of minutes ago but he had recklessly disregarded because he was trying to show off his cool attack plan idea and also because he was slightly terrified of being perforated with weapons fire. The suit provided SOME protection, if by protection you also mean 'could short circuit and shrink him into infinite nothingness if one of those bullets gets lucky'.

"I'm the only one who gets to do bug puns, mister!" he yells at Klaw and then drops off the helmet he was standing on and rapid-shrinks, dropping down the front of the trooper's jumpsuit.

Hydra Trooper #XJ435 (Calvin) is not pleased by sharing his jumpsuit. He rapidly starts to thrash around, trying to scratch and swat at Scott as the Ant-Man gets good and tiny and races around the guy's back, "Please be a waist gap, please be a waist gap, I don't want to go through his boxers, I don't want to go through his boxers, OH THANK F--"

And then there's a tiny 'uuuuuuck' that can't be heard over the battle as Ant-Man emerges from the top of the jumpsuit and flings himself to the ground, grateful and untainted in the most literal of senses.

Steve Rogers has posed:
Captain America also takes a more vertical approach down the stairs, though he grabs hold of railings every other floor to slow his fall, until finally he arrives at the bottom.

Finding the door at the bottom locked, Cap smashes his shield through the door hinges and then picks up the door and moves it aside to lean against the wall before he passes through. The corner has signs with arrows indicating the direction to various parts of the floor. Steve spots the sign for the labs and turns to begin moving at a quick but quiet clip.

When he reaches a corner he stops to peek around it before moving on, drawing ever closer to the troopers that have invaded the building.

T'Challa has posed:
As Black Panther looks up and see Klaw as he snarls at him "Thief.." still holding a bit of a grudge. He trusted Cap to take care of the others going into the bank, as he moved forward seeing the sonic weapon swivel so changes his mind. He jumps up grabing the top of the doorway to the stairs, and pulls himself up crouching so he can push off aginst the same wall. He had stored a lot of energy from those two falls so decided to use it to launch off the wall forward. As he launches twisting in the air the waves travel under him demolishing the bottom of the stairs, and the doorway as if it were nothing a hole now to the outside open where he missed. The weapon rises to follow, but it is too late as two-hundred pounds of Black Panther smashes into him throwing them both away from each other as the stairs, and some of the second floor are shaken by the weapon starts to crack as T'Challa is already getting ready to pounce on the man again claws extending as he didn't plan on just body checking him next time.

Over the radio he hears a, "Oh-no... Uhh Brother that was not okay.. I am reading the second floor took a major hit.. I do not know if it will hold long." though T'Challa is currently focused on Klaw as this next strike should settle it. Though now there were a lot more gunman. "Antman you okay over there?" he had not seen him, but heard the shot so was wondering, as he trusted Cap, but Scott was different so he needed to check.

Belinda Gutierrez has posed:
Silverdane's grin freezes when she sees the... Ice-cream cones? Snow-cone makers? Strange-looking arr--

The question as to what they are is solved as soon as the first RPG is fired; eyes widening, Silverdane lunges to one side, snarling as the deadly grenade veers just off course.

The second, however...

"Ow!" she snarls in surprise, shivering as explosion and shrapnel and metal bits rake across her back. Close-- too close! Rising, ears ringing from the explosions' shockwaves, she surges forward, eyes gleaming.

"Playtiume is over!" she growls, grabbing the first rocketeer by the front of his suit. A toss-- the trooper screams as he sails away, tossed by a too-eager throw overhead.

The tree will catch his fall. Right?

"/Run/!" the werewolf growls, turning back. "Before I get angry. And turrrrn green!"

Natasha Romanoff has posed:
No one ever said that Hydra troopers were chosen for intelligence, self-preservation, or sanity (admittedly there was that Bob guy who's cowardice was the stuff of legend). While most of the ones that are facing Belinda have taken the better part of valor option and are booking it.. At least one of them is seemingly too caught up in his own glory to think of this. "HAIL HYDRA! HAIL GLORIOUS HYDRA!" He would chant as he goes to charge towards the werewolf, attempting to psray her over with a flamethrower on him as she would draw close! Of course, he has to activate it first, it has a very limited range, and the fact he was screamin gat the top of his lungs while racing at her was likely a heads up to his intents..

Ant-Man is able to essentially pinball the various Hydra troopers around, sending them flying everywhere as he does a routine that cannot be unseen (get the brain bleach) for those whom are misfortunate enough to grasp it. What he also has now is a free run over at the hostages, the sudden blasts back and forth finally having several of the guards turning to train their weapons on the melee. At least two of them are opening fire.. Which end up hitting their own comrade that Ant-Man had taken the pants dive into. He won't be moving anytime soon. IF ever.

Captain America is able to make it to the lab quickly and easily. The signs make it easy to tell. Presuming he does manage to breach it or goes in a stealthier route, he would come upon a group of a half dozen or so Hydra troopers and an officer that were quickly going to grab up various high grade energy weapons that had been seized or taken in for analysis, rapidly going to rearm themselves with what had previously been taken! So they would either be opening fire on him as soon as he came in the door, or if he went stealthier they would be festooning htemselves with bandoilers and heavy weapons like they were out of an 80's movie. The noise up above means that they're aware of the fighitng, but not how it was going nor that anyone necessarily was approaching.

Inside the lab, the area is shaking. From combat. From fighting. Fron the sonic blaster that could cleave through walls. Klaw goes to swing at Panther in passing, even as the exchange throws them both away from one another. Even as Klaw rocks back up and over to his feet, his armor slashed through cleanly by the vibranium claws. "Nice to be recognized. Thank you for the toys. I'll have to come and get some more sometime." HE doesn't seem to care about the precarious state of the facility, even as he's going to fire off hyper-charge sonic blasts like machine gun fire that could pulp armroed cars!

Scott Lang has posed:
Scott Lang takes off in a swift run for the hostages, planning to help get them out of harm's way if he can. Of course, harm does have a habit of following Scott Lang around, as attested to by various members of his family, his allies, his employers and multiple professionals in the fields of law enforcement and hospital management. The dude leaves craters sometimes.

Neither is he super reassuring as he re-enlarges and gives his absolute best escape plan "RUN FOR IT!" as he turns and starts to unleash some electric stings back at any Hydra troops heading his way, before headbutting one of the closest guards with his helmet.

"OW! No concussions for Ant-Man, bad! I don't have NFL health insurance!"

T'Challa has posed:
T'Challa snears at the man.. "This time I will make sure they throw you in a deep dark hole." not quiping as Antman as this man has caused his people so much harm. As he spoke the weapon shot at him again, as instead of charging forward he flips towards the wall the shots following him away from any hostages. But he doesn't stop there, he runs forward, but towards the wall as he runs up and on it for a couple steps the shots right behind him as he leaps off it forward delivering a superman punch using his weight, and the force from the leap off the wall.

RT'challa was not done as this man would not go down that easy, as he uses the momentum to swing the top of his body sping to kick the falling man putting what force is left behind it from his stored supply of kinetic energy. He hoped to send the man sailing back, as hopefully the one-two combination would stop him for how. He turns to see scott helping out the hostages, and handling the situation as he can he gives him the nod. "Cap it looks like we got out here hand..."

Of course it wasn't over as he is interupted from a sonic blast that could knock around tanks hits T'Challa the coward of the man shoting him after acting like he was down. T'Challa flies backwards his suit sparking as it lands hard sliding on the ground.. a simple.. "Ouch.. Coming from inside, as he is already reaching for the manual release to open the suit this happening before he had planned for it.

Mona Lisa has posed:
     An opening is an opening is an opening, and Lt. Y'Gythgba has her orders... and this may be her only chance to fulfill them. As Hydra attacks from the side and the fight goes on below, the insectoid-looking ship of the alien known as Mona Lisa drops her off on the roof of the labs before flying off on auto-pilot. The energy sword of the anthropomorphic salamander cuts through a skylight, morph-pads on her fingers sticking to the glass to stop it from falling so that she can fling it across the roof and not fall below. She takes a deep breath, and then the alien operative jumps through, firing a grappling hook into the stairwell and descending the same stairwell as T'Challa and Cap through yet a third method, if a more destructive one.

     Mona Lisa lands where Black Panther and Captain America were a few moments prior, silently, and with trained quietness she sneaks off in another direction. A morph-pad on the back of her wrist changing into a holographic scanner, she follows its lead, quickly, down a hallway, hopefully not getting the attention of the A-Listers... but it's impossible not to get the attention of rank and file Osborne security. "Freak in sector 13!" one of them calls out on his radio, just before an alien disc embeds itself in the wall next to him and then explodes in a concussive, non-lethal blast.

     She switches her sword to repel rather than cut, and throws a smoke bomb down just as two more guards round the corner, both of them soon pummeled senseless before Mona follows her scanner through the labs... until she comes across a glass room with a small metal canister in the middle, glowing with green liquid inside, pausing for a moment to assess the security... but she has only moments until someone catches up to her, whether that's more guards, hydra, or one of the A-Listers...

Belinda Gutierrez has posed:
Silverdane turns towards the last, fearless (Brave? Stupid?) Hydra agent, wielding one more in a series of strange guns she has seen today. Cocky, confident, the scent of something unusual only keys her realization after the first hiss of the weapon, the first gout of something horrible. Stench. Gasoline. Searing.

/Fire!/

Silverdane lunges, slamming into the Hydra trooper as the guns erupts, belches. Flame, napalm, phosphor-- the wolf emits an all-too-human shriek as the blast strikes her; fire ripples across her shoulder as the weapon unleashes its hellish blast. A panicked strike sends the trooper sailing, ribs crunching as he flies through the air; Silverdane flails at her shoulder and arm, fighting frantically at instinct as flames lick and ravage with mindless, murderous glee. PANICPANICPANIC--- stop, drop, roll and roll and /roll/--!

Steve Rogers has posed:
Steve Rogers gets to the door of the lab, slowing to make less noise as he peeks around inside. He spots the Hydra squad arming up and whispers an update into his comms. <<I have a unit grabbing the high tech weapons. Moving on them now.>>

Cap steps through the doorway, body rotating as he hurls his shield. It bounces off a counter, sending beakers and containers flying and skittering across the tables and floor, and then up into one of the Hydra soldier's chin. Ricocheting off him it flies over to catch another soldier in the chest before finally it flies back towards Cap where it is plucked out of the air.

The officer turns in surprise, lifting his weapon to point it at Cap. He pulls the trigger and a blast shoots out, hitting Caps shield with enough force to knock the Avenger off his feet and backwards where he hits the door frame before falling onto his stomach.

The Hydra officer takes another step forward, bringing the gun to bear on the fallen Avenger. "I will be the one to finally kill Captain America!" he exclaims gleefully.

"You'd have done better to stay in school and study chemistry," Steve Rogers says, lifting his head and then tossing one of those containers up at the officer, then covering up with his shield.

The officer fires and when the beam hits the container, it sets off a blast which blows him off his feet and leaves him unconscious. The blast wave is mostly deflected by Cap's shield, though he's going to have some bruises to explain tonight. He climbs back to his feet. <<Ok, lab secure.>>

Natasha Romanoff has posed:
Scott Lang does what his job here is. Get a distraction up for the hostages. All of whom have gotten the idea and start running for the nearest emergency exit. Most of them still in the restraints they'd had on them. Those who can't balance well are in turn supported by one another as they race outside. In the midst of the chaos made by Scott, even the yelling of the guard leader to shoot at them is lost in things. And his yells are then cut short as Lang goes to give him a sizzling electrical jolt which has him dropping on down hard to the ground in a loud -FROMPH-.

This leaves T'Challa dealing with the most dangerous man in the room - bar him perhaps. But Klaw could give him a run for his money. T'Challa goes to send another shot over at him, even as the slams from T'Challa send him hard. Klaw is enhanced, but not that much. He still, however, is able to get up over and then goes to fire another blast! This one is solid and in a continous beam, lashing out like a whip over at the Black Panther! Snapping it through the air as the sound would incinerate anything it came cloes to like some sort of disintegrator! But he had one hand holding in his side from the brutal hit, and his mobility was very limited.

Mona Lisa is able to sneak her way in readily, even as she goes to work her way through the guarsd. Her smoke bombs and other decoys make getting past anyone efficient. But in the chaos of the melee, more people being taken down -not- done by Captain America or upstairs would get attention. Whehter it might be the acute senses of the Black Panther, the sensational size-shifting Ant Man.. Or one of the Hydra troopers up above spraying bullets in every direction!

Or, even more strangely.. There's oen Hydra Trooper that goes to rapidly pull the bodies of two of his unconscious comrades on top of him, "If they can't see me I'm invisible. IF no one can tell where I am I'm safe. I'm totally fine here with them on top of me and no one can tell wher I am." That.. Might be strange enough to warrant a stop and stare. Or an 'I don't want to know' and run on by.

The Trooper goes sailing over like he's with Team Rocket. He's not going to be going anywhere anytime soon as he's sent flying through several of the trees, taking down a couple of branches, and thunks over down towards the ground. He ends up over in a fire ant hive that was being nibbled on by a group of sunks and racoons that suddenly go ferla on him. His screams will echo into the night.

Captain America has the lab secure. Anyone going to grab things is down. But hte rest of hte buliding is seemingly at risk if not immediately.. And there's still the fight going on upstairs. Or perhaps there's more sounds indicative of Mona Lisa stealthing her way through. Or others.

T'Challa has posed:
Thankfull as he is shot again the tink.. think.. sound as smoke shoots out, and T'Challa ejects out of his suit before it is shot again. The man was trained in stealth, and although he wore a tight black shirt with no sleaves, and black shorts he moved quickly, and quietly the smoke helping as he approaches. Thankfully the man is still shooting the suit as T'Challa himself pulling a large curved comes from behind him. "The suit is not what makes me the panther." is heard before the knife is burried into the weapon itself, and twisted a cold smile on T'Challa face as the man deserved at least this much for his crimes.

Using his other arm, he wraps it around the mans neck to control the head hopefull to take him down quickly now that his weapon is disabled though he does remind himself to thank whoever just threw that smoke later. As his grip tightens in that heavy accent he would tell the man.. "Sleep.. Sleep now.."

Belinda Gutierrez has posed:
It takes a moment to rally thoughts from panic-mode; Silverdane groans as her thoughts flutter back to her.

1. No longer on fire. Yay!
2. Everything HURTS. Boo.

She shoves herself up from the ground, a glance at her arm drawing a whimper-- denuded of fur, it looks painfully pink and cooked. "..know how mi abuela's roast feels..." she moans to herself quietly, shaking her head to focus thoughts. And wince. She hit that trooper hard. Too hard! Getting her feet under her, she glances back at the building, off at the treeline before sniffing out where the flametrooper Hydra had gone flying. First thought: dirty /Nazi/ deserves it. And then the other, sterner thought.

"I am not a monster," she mumbles, chuffing as she steps off carefully, cradling her scorched arm as she hunts the ill-struck man. Ears not quite ringing anymore, but everything aches. *Everything.*

Mona Lisa has posed:
     A chair is thrown through the glass wall, and two turrets rise from the ground to fire at the chair approaching the cannister. Two more discs are thrown into the bases of the turret's compartments in the floor, which quickly explode, and the turrets crumble under themselves as Mona Lisa walks forward with a sway of her spiked tail. Giving one last scan to check for any further security, she finally grabs the glass and metal canister labeled "TCRI" that glows from within with a green liquid, finally holding in her hands what she was stationed on earth for. Cradling the cannister like a football, she turns and makes a break for it out the way she came, back towards the larger fight, even as the labs shake and the building threatens to collapse...

Steve Rogers has posed:
Steve Rogers pulls out some zip ties and goes over to secure the Hydra soldiers while they are unconscious. He picks up the one energy weapon and looks it over, shaking his head and then setting it on a table as he drags the Hydra forces out of the lab and sets them against the wall in the hallway.

<<Please contact SHIELD,>> he sends back to the Avengers monitoring from the Assembly Room. <<Tell them we've got a few people for them that need pick up.>> He removes his helmet and his gloves, running a hand through his hair and lets out a sigh as he stretches to feel how bad that bruise on his back is. He's going to have to avoid wincing when he goes out to dinner at the restaurant run by Lara's friend.

Natasha Romanoff has posed:
There's exchanged blows back and forth between T'Challa and Klaw. Weapons pulsing and firing. But at lcose range, T'Challa's greater strength, skill, and technology can defeat that of Klaw. And so Klaw struggles, but goes to slump down under the efforts of T'Challa. That's his enemy down for at least one quick.. But hard fight. And even with Klaw locked away, even if thrown into the deepest, darkest hole.. It would no doubt always have that sense of things being unfinished.

The hostages are all out of the building, even as it's shaking and the foundations are rumbling. Not on the way out immediately, but it's definitely not going to be stable without a total renovation. But wihtout as heavy combat as has been going on it's not at immediate risk of total collapse. Just breathe really carefully on the way out!

Mona Lisa has her way up to the top if she goes that route. The mostly defeated Hydra troopers, civilians fleeing out the back door, a man iwth half his hand cut off being rocked to sleep by a hardened warrior wearing mystical armor forcing him unconscious..

And there's the interior secured, the building wobbling but not on the way down.. And just one stealthy ninja going on her way out with her own booty in tow. Captain America might be wincing a bit but the day seems mostly won

Mona Lisa has posed:
     Mona runs with her sword in front of her in a defensive position, until she gets back to the stairwell. Finding this deceptively easy, she shoots her grapple gun into the roof and slings herself up and through the skylight, putting the cannister in her mouth as she taps on the back of her gauntlet to summon her ship, running and jumping to get clear for a pickup away from the building... and once she does, the ship picks her up, and she jets upwards, towards the Earth's atmosphere and space above...

T'Challa has posed:
Walking out the smoke T'Challa wals towards the front.. "Do not shoot.." he says to whoever is in the front as he did not want any acidental crossfire as his hands were full. Dragging with one of them a knocked out Klaw, alive though injured, and in the other a suit that was lightly chared though it would buff out he metal would be undamaged as usual. He says under his breath, "I should end you theif, but this land is not my own." of course the man can't hear him as he is out cold.

As he approaches the hallway dragging the man he smiles at Steve tossing the man down. "I do not have pockets." he looks down as this is just what he wore under the suit. "Tie him up with the others. Tell your friends he should be watched carefully." giving the knocked out man a dirty look one last time.

He turns, and waves back to Steve, "Thank you for a chance for justice. I need to find some pants." as he starts heading out putting the suit over his shoulder now. "Antman did well... You should tell him this. People take it better from you." and then leaves heading out to find a cab, or a phone to call his people.
