Bianca watched Paris with a curious look. She wondered how Paris felt during his evaluation. She knew that she had felt scared, and slightly nervous. But then again, she had been facing her mother, which made it slightly different in many ways.. Or else that's what she assumed.

Meanwhile, at Pym Tech, little Matt Pym had been working on a project of his own. Having only discovered his unique ability only two weeks ago, he was inventing a special vial to store Pym Particles, which have been discovered by his father and can alter size. He was able to move them around at will and use them to grow and shrink anything he desired, including himself. He found it pretty neat. With six vials clipped to his belt, he waves his hand near one of them. The vial opens by itself and some of the purple liquid inside seeps out and into his body, causing him to double in height. He smirks, once again his genius was brought to good use. He waves his hand again, and the Pym Particles return to the vial, causing him to reach normal size again. "Much better," he says to himself and puts the vials in his pocket.

"I guess you're right, can't really do well in a job if you don't like what you're doing." Kenshin replied. "I think we have to notify the Logistics Department or Vision that we need to have our things collected. I am fine with the SHIELD stuff, long as I got my mask."

Paris's method of attack made him give up his stealth for a moment but a moment too long. One of the robbers spotted him mid flight and though his conscious mind didn't recognize the threat the devices and unconscious brain did, in reflex they all squeezed their triggers. Several of the hostages laid dead by the time Paris took out of the leader. The evaluation failed in what would seem like a small fraction of time was too long. The bank faded away as Vision floated over to Paris. "You did good scouting out the bank but then you gave up stealth with your method of attack. I am sure you had other methods of attack that would've proved more suitable to this matter. I am afraid you must retake your exam." Vision explained.

(Timeskip a week later, Paris passed his second evaluation)

"American companies had found out all too well that the Hand still operates in the America. Over the course of this week varius companies had their science divisions raided research, tech, and materials stolen. This list includes Pym Tech and Stark Industries which had very specific things stolen from them. Now we have lined up the Hand's next target and the only company in New York not to be hit yet." Fury explained to the gathered Avengers who were summoned here today instead of team training exercises for a briefing. Over the course of their first week as Avengers they were required to train together for a least 4 hours a day to better understand how they would work together. Progress on this front has been slow compared to what Vision views as their optimal potential for teamwork.

Kenshin interjected. "The Hand deal with the mystic arts, why would they raid a bunch of science companies. As of present they are polar opposites and science is of no value to the mystic arts."

Fury replied "Based mostly on what they stolen so far we believed they could be trying to enhance themselves with artificial symbiotes. The other theories are even more ominous than this one, the worst case is that they are trying to make an artificial vessel for the Beast using Endo sym material. The Hand could become a real threat if the Beast were to walk among them as opposed to possessing vessels that would burn out, it could exist in our world permanently.

In case you don't know, the Hand are a clandestine group of Ninja who worship a being know as the Beast. At least some among them possess magic powers and they have been known to associate with Hydra. Despite how ridiculous some of you may find this, they are to be taken seriously of you can risk ending up dead especially if you encounter their elite member known as Daimyo. There's definitely a Daimyo involved here they wouldn't run such an operation without one. Any questions before I name who heads this mission and where you guys are going?"

It had been a week since they had arrived. The week was seemingly long in Coal's eyes. After the first day things had gone quiet a bit... Except for their training hours. For the most part Coal kept to himself, wandering the helicarrier when ever he felt adventurous. It didn't take him long to cover every inch he was aloud and then some. But never truly breaking the rules. His ability to sense metal helped him understand the full layout of the place. In the restricted areas he never set foot in, but used his powers to understand the restricted area's layouts and possible understand what kind of power source was inside them. But even his curiosity never got the better end of him.

He had found other ways to distract his mind. Research on the other members of the team and then some. With access to SHIELD's computers and some of their knowledge Coal discovered the basics of his teammates. Even out of boredom he looked up his own files. There wasn't much on him.... Not like the others. The others had some interesting pasts.... While his was rather simple... a bit too simple for his liking. The son of Magneto... Orphaned at a young age.... It only made him wonder why SHIELD picked him.

As for practice with the others... Coal couldn't say he was being a team player. Well...... He wasn't a pleasant team player. Right from the start he was holding back on most of their practices. Not over excelling and not under achieving. He was finding it more and more difficult to use his powers when placed under a lot of stress. Between the masked fox and the hyper active leach... Coal made a strong note to stay away from her.... He knew of her mother's powers and didn't like the fact of someone else seeing his memories or even taking some of his powers... Even for a short time.

But other than that, he just tried to focus on his job at hand.

And now they were all in a room learning the details of their first mission.

Coal stood in the back of the room... Once again not really joining the rest of the team at the table. He held a tablet in hand looking over the details of the operation. Basically everything the director had just told them. He scrolled down the file reading everything word for word as fast as he could, paying attention to small details. But his attention was ripped from his tablet when the director mentioned that he would be placing someone in charge of the mission. Coal's eyes went from the director and right to Kenshin. This group he spoke about was all over Kenshin's files and also anything Coal could find on the internet.

His guess as to who would be leader was very obvious. Kenshin would be named leader of this mission as he had the most experience with this magical ninja group. Not much of a surprise in Coal's mind.

But his eyes looked back to the file as he tried to think of any questions to ask. It was better to be over informed than to walk into something that he knew nothing about. But he already knew somethings... Nothing seemed to be jumping to mind that he wanted to ask really. He felt more curious to his own personal question.... Was his guess right about Kenshin? Would the director label him as their first leader? And if so... How would this mission go? His questions sat to the future, not the present....

((Never mind my last post, here's the real one.))

Dr. Pym, of course, was furious about the multiple thefts he was unable to stop. The aged man was not the crime-fighter he used to be and was unable to become the Ant-Man in time each time. But Matt seemed rather... excited about it. Strangely excited, not that he was evil, almost as if he was sensing... opportunity. He didn't think his father was trying hard enough to stop them, so he decided to take matters into his own hands. He sneaks out one night to put on a blue and black costume of his own design, the vials full of Pym Particles attached to its waist, and heads for the city in search of other suspicious activity. He made himself the size of a large adult so he wouldn't look like a wannabe, and he manages to find a skyscraper with roof access, so he decides to stay there and search. He's a technological genius himself, so he wasn't too afraid.

New York City
12:00pm
Knightly Enterprises
​

He was standing on the balcony of his office holding a glass of scotch when his companies VP came rushing in with a file. He was a middle aged man with a very good background in management and handled business well. He hands over the file so Drake may read it. Within minutes they where both in a conference room full of the rest of the companies share holders.

"Why are we here?"one of the share holders asked a bit annoyed.

"Yeah I was about to go for a round of golf."said another one of the rich men.

Drake looks over at the VP with and nods towards the group. The man gets up and presses a button on the remote he picked up from in front of him and the from became dark. He sighed and clicked the remote and pictures of newspaper headlines and files came up of all the companies that had been raided by unseen thieves.

"As you guys can see major companies have been attacked by these invisible thieves and word is that we will be the next target. We called the meeting to let you know that we will be upgrading our security system. This is a code SNAKE. That means you will all be sent home and stripped of any way of entering our vaults or any of our research centers and R&D. Now after the perps are caught we will bring you back with full access. Now if you'll excuse me and Mr. Knightly we will go make all the proper adjustments the guards will escort you out thank you for your time.",he nods at Drake and they both exit the room before the rest of them could speak up in complaint.

Ten minutes later the whole building was being reinforced with guards and security was tripled at the entrances and quadrupled at the vaults. Over the years his companies scientist have made many new advances in tech that he has yet to release to the world; in fear of what they might use them for or whom.

About an hour later the buildings security was all in check and Drake was in his office going over the papers for his newest acquired piece of tech. He knew that this piece would be what the thieves would come for first so he had it locked in the vault that he only had access to. It was reinforced with vibranium and adamantium ores plus their lates sensor tech. He was confident that if they came for his company they would have been making a great mistake. Not only was the building ready but so was he. He walked over to a wall and placed his palm on a scanner that was hidden. The wall slid open and there before him strode his armor. He had never tried it out and today felt like the day to test it.

Five hours later he was armored and staring out into the New York City skyline with his arms behind his back his eyes glowing a bit purple with power. He was ready for them and they weren't ready for what they where about to step into. There was going to be hell to pay for these guys and he was going to hand it to them personally...

(( Hyper active leach XD ))

Bianca hated the team exercises. Just being around the others, and having to take off her gloves for training just dug up old fears of when she had first gotten her powers. Plus she sensed that Coal wanted to stay away from her because of her powers. It wasn't fair! She always had to wear gloves all the time just so the other members would give her a little more trust than if the gloves were gone.

Bianca leaned against the wall in a lonely corner, drinking at least her 3rd cup of coffee and quietly listened. Finally, it was their first mission, and she planned on proving herself to the team that she was trustworthy with or without the gloves. The masked boy, Kenshin, was going to be the leader of the group because of his experience with the group. Bianca desperately wanted to just lightly tap the boy without her gloves, just to get a sneak peek of his past, only it wasn't only Kenshin, but all of the members around the table. She wondered how many secrets they all withheld deep in their souls, the key to the lock on their lips only being trust.

"So.. this Hand organization... how much real damage can they do if they're not stopped?" Bianca frowned and had a slight hint of worry in her voice. She wanted to know just how much pressure was getting pushed onto them.

 

[Field Marshall]

"Just know that if you fail, a lot of people are going to die both directly and indirectly as a result." Nick Fury answered. "Agent Rand shall head this mission not because he's an agent of shield but because he has experience fighting the Hand in the past. Your orders and battle plan will come from Vision but if we are to loose contact, you are to look to Agent Rand for guidance." Nick Fury revealed much to everyone's surprise. "Ready yourselves and depart immediately if there are no further questions."

Kenshin eyed Rand remembering him from his time with the Hand. He figured once Rand sees him fight Rand will instantly recognize him, hopefully understanding will prevail in that moment and avert a chaotic moment in a life or death situation. Kenshin stood up and prepared to leave the room, he was already wearing his usual outfit and mask. He could have opted for some of SHIELDs suits but decided against it for this one. This one is personal considering they just tried to kill him like a week ago, it is time for some pay back.

Standing on the rooftop of a skyscraper and starting right at the armored Drake, was the Best in one of his best temporary vessels. The rooftop he stood on was filled with a dense fog and the Beast himself was barely visible through it. But fog on top of a NYC skyscraper would be enough to draw anyone's attention. He was clearly challenging the Blood Knight, but was it real or just a distraction?

Coal blinked a bit shocked that the director picked Rand to lead the mission. It took him by surprise really. He looked up from his tablet and around the room till his eyes fell on Kenshin. Kenshin's reaction surprised Coal even more. He didn't show any signs of speaking up or that he would rebel against the director's decision. Coal on the other hand felt that the director was making a grave mistake. Even if Rand had experience with being an agent already, that did not make him a good leader, nor someone who could lead the group into a battle like this one.... Not when another had 'way' more experience with the enemy in question.

Coal watched as the other left the room ever so quietly. Coal looked back to the room glancing over each person, trying to read their thoughts on the leader subject.

He frowned a little to himself before turning and leaving the room as well. If there was nothing left to discuss then why waist time?

This would be Coal's first ever mission.... More so his first ever real fight while using his powers. To expect the unexpected would be normal..... But how to go about it could and would change the course of the game. Placing pawns and knights in the right squares could win the game... Or it could set them up to loose with no chance of correcting such mistakes.

Coal didn't have gear like some of the others. When it came to practice he would wear little to no armor. Only a thin bullet proof vest and his metal armbands was all he really needed. He didn't wear this to show off.... His metal abilities mixed with the magnetic fields he could create were better than even the vest itself.

Once he was ready Coal made his way to where they were to meet to head out to the mission location. Already he could feel his nerves tensing up as he walked down the halls. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best.

 

[Pink Gorilla]

Elise thought over the whole situation in her head. It's her first mission and people's lives are at stake. She took deep breathes before heading out to go grab some stuff. After she rummaged and grabbed a few things, Elise headed towards the meet up location. This could be my first and last mission... She thought to herself. No, don't psyche yourself out now. Keep a level head. Elise waited around for everyone to show up to start the mission. Anyone

 

[Field Marshall]

Kenshin reported the Hangar in which they are to board their transport to the mission location. Kenshin looked at Elise and Coal who were already waiting in the hangar. "Maybe I should have put on one of those SHIELD combat uniforms, they seem pretty cool." He thought aloud in retrospect. He wondered what witty comment Coal would make this time about his mask. At this point Kenshin assumed everyone had done some digging on everyone, one would be crazy not to look into those who would have to watch their backs. They probably knew they were facing a group he used to run with. He adjusted his mask while thinking about that.

One of the VTOLs lowered their ramp as the co pilot stepped out onto the edge of the ramp. He watched Agent Rand walk up to the co pilot and confirm this was their transport. After that Agent Rand turned to the others can called to them. "Alright guys this our transport everyone come aboard and strap yourselves in, it will be smooth but short ride. We're being air dropped in though." He explained. Kenshin boarded the VTOL and took the first seat on the left nearest the cockpit and strapped himself in waiting for the others.

The air was thick and the fog was almost impossible to see through but what stood out the most atop the Knightly Enterprises building the most this night was the two figures that stood opposite from each other. Drake stood there in full armor with his arms crossed glaring at what could only be described as a beast. It stood about five feet taller than him and was eminating nothing but pure power. It was like a minatour from old Greek myths; only this was a silver one and it seemed to almost float from the ground. Drake took this in as he glared at the figure that appeared out of nowhere. He knew that it probably wasn't alone and it was just there to distract him while they stole his tech. This made him angry as he uncrossed his arms and cracked his knuckles his power flowing through his veins.

"Alright you bloody behemoth. I'll only give you five seconds to turn around and leave."He tells it not expecting it to move at all. He waits a second and sighs cracking his neck looking up again this time his eyes burning a deep purple,"I guess I'll have to show you out myself."Not a second afterwards in a blink of an eye he covered the ground between each other and pulled back his fist sending an uppercut towards the bulls chin.

Coal looked to Kenshin letting a million and one comments run through his head. He couldn't settle on a better come back for this. The guy was walking right into his line of fire. He didn't exactly follow prototypical when it came to his uniform. Mostly keeping the uniform under his own clothing. A loose but well fitted hoodie over the gear SHIELD provided. He let a smirk loose as he looked to his shoes before looking back up at the guy. "Yeah but you can't get more bad ass than Star Fox." Coal commented. It was for real though. Coal took one look at Kenshin and Star Fox from the old Nintendo 64 games popped into his mind. "At least you're all blue like Falco." He added. Falco was a dick in the game and from their past weeks of training Coal had gained a bit of respect for the other. Not much..... But he had seen a sneak preview of how the guy worked.

Coal glanced to Elise before looking back to Kenshin. His eyes were quickly diverted to Rand as he told them how they would approach the situation. He nodded slowly trying to pan out how everything would go. He narrowed his eyes a bit at the mention of dropping into the location. They would be landing into the city... this would be easy for him alone seeing as there was a lot of metal. He could easily drop everyone in without parachutists. But he would leave that up to their leader.

This will be very interesting..... Very interesting.

Coal looked back to the others. He took in a very quiet breath as he tried to get his mind into the mission. For this to go right they needed to not only work together, but they needed to focus. This was not training, this was real. People's lives were at stake. He didn't realize the cause and effect until now. For some reason this information slipped his mind. Between training and making sure that he understood as much as he could... He just didn't do the math. He never really did something like this before... So pressure was his enemy. He had to keep his mind and nerves clear.

Stark Tower, New York...
Several hours earlier...

​

"We any closer to finding out whose been raiding my facilities and stealing my stuff?" Tony said, apparently speaking to thin air, as he took a sip from his drink.
The distinctly Irish accent of F.R.I.D.A.Y, Tony Stark's personal AI, spoke up. "Good news on that front, boss. I've-"
Tony abruptly cut in. "C'mon then, don't keep me in suspense." He was eager to get to the bottom of the matter and was growing impatient. "I'd like one less excuse for S.H.I.E.L.D. to been on my ass. Let me guess A.I.M. again?" Tony put his glass down on the counter temporarily. "For supposedly Advanced Ideas you think they could think of something a little more original than constantly attempting to steal my stuff." He wryly remarked.
"Swing and a miss, boss." It was apparent in her voice that F.R.I.D.A.Y. was taking a certain amount of satisfaction from his incorrect guess, especially considering how he had cut her off before she could give him the answer in the first place.
"Oh really? That makes a change for once." This matter was beginning to pique his interest. "F.R.I.D.A.Y, surprise me."
She paused briefly, as if attempting to build suspense. "It was the Hand."
Tony was taken aback by that answer. "Ninja's?" He paused as he processed this new information. "Huh, consider myself thoroughly surprised. I did not see that one coming." He was about to take another sip of his drink when he paused again. "You're not yanking my chain are you?" Tony asked the AI, not entirely convinced.
F.R.I.D.A.Y. was known to often have fun at his expense.
"Go way outta that." She insisted, amused by his wariness.
He narrowed his eyes briefly, still slightly hesitant before returning his gaze to normal. "Okay then. Can-"

Their conversation was interrupted by a knock at the door. Tony looked up. "Who is it?" The door opened.
"Dad?" It was Toni, his daughter.
"Oh! Come on in, sweetie." Tony put his glass down on the counter. "Can you forward that information to S.H.I.E.L.D and Parker Industries DankWaffles F.R.I.D.A.Y. It was some of our joint projects with them that were targeted so they've asked to be kept in the loop."
"Will do, boss."
"Thank you."
Toni stood in the centre of the room and he approached her. "Everything alright?" He said, leaning down to her height. A worried look suddenly crossed his face. "I haven't forgot anything have I?"
She smiled and shook her head. "No, no, nothing like that."
He let out a sigh of relief. "I was worried F.R.I.D.A.Y. may of forgotten to remind me of something again."
"Hey! I tell you but like hen's teeth do you listen!?!" F.R.I.D.A.Y. interjected, obviously annoyed at his statement.
He narrowed his eyes and looked up. "Didn't I ask you to do something important for me?"
"Okay, okay, I'm going but I couldn't have you outright lying to the little one." Toni giggled at that. "Always a pleasure, Toni."
"Same here." She replied.
Tony's gaze returned to his daughter. "Now where were we?" He asked. "Oh, that's right, did you want to ask me something?"
"Uh, yeah." She looked away briefly." I just wanted to let you know that if you need any help finding out who attacked us, I'm always here."
A big smile crossed Tony's face. "Aw!" He put his arms around his daughter and held her tight. "I really appreciate the offer, sweetie. As much as I would love to collaborate with you and I have to admit, it would be nice to talk to someone without constantly dumbing things down for once, I can assure you it's nothing to worry about. Really."
"Okay." Toni replied, somewhat disheartened.
He let go of her and kissed her on the forehead before standing up. "Look, I have to go." He pointed his thumb behind him, towards the elevator. "I've got a press conference to attend. As per usual you have full run of the tower. And before you ask, yes that includes daddy's private bar." He rolled his eyes jokingly as he continued to tease her. "Don't think I don't notice the empty bottles that suddenly appear in my absence, missy."
"Dad!" She replied, embarrassed. "I don't drink! I'm only thirteen."
Tony was standing in the elevator now. "Heck, I was up to far worse at your age." He shrugged. "My offer still stands though. Just remember don't touch the good stuff!" He wagged his finger at her. "That's for daddy only." Tony smiled and waved goodbye as the elevator doors closed and he disappeared from sight.

Now...

Toni laid on her bed, looking up at the ceiling.
"I wish he would let me help for once." She said, quietly.
"I'm sure he's just doing what he thinks is best for you." M.A.R.I.A. replied, attempting to comfort her.
"I know but..." Toni trailed off. She rolled over in her bed and looked out the window despondently.
"Hey, if it's any consolation, I've asked F.R.I.D.A.Y. to keep me in the loop." M.A.R.I.A. told her. "We'll know, whatever she knows."
Toni's sat up quickly, her eyes wide with excitement. "Really?"
"Us girls have got to stick together, right? Besides F.R.I.D.A.Y. could never say no to her little sister."
"Oh thank you, M.A.R.I.A. Thank you, thank you." Toni said, almost bouncing off the walls.
"Your smile is thanks enough."
After calming down a bit, Toni relaxed back down on to the bed, her legs crossed. She began stroking her chin. "I just need to find out who's behind these attacks and more importantly why." Toni's mind raced, as she began formulating a plan. "Maybe I could even bring the culprits to justice! Then everybody would have to take notice."
"Miss Antonia, I don't mean to interrupt but look out the window. I'm picking up a strange atmospheric anomaly nearby."
Toni stood up and approached the window. She could see there was strange fog centred on top of one of the skyscrapers. That was definitely not normal.
A smile crossed her face.
It was time for some action.

[DankWaffles]

*beep, beep, beep, beep*, the sound of Paris' alarm clock kept blaring, until finally, a hand hovered over the snooze button and slammed down on it. Immediately, the alarm clock shattered, and Paris was now fully awake, with his hand covered in pieces of his clock. "Ah crap." his head was buried deep into his pillow and he could barely even hear himself. His instincts kicked in and Paris jumped out of bed, knowing full well that he was late. Today was the first day that the whole team would experience their first mission...as a team. For Paris, this wasn't much, heck, he's been Spider-Man for nearly a year now. Back to reality, Paris pranced around his room, attempting to slide his pants on and searching for a suitable shirt in the process. It'd probably be easier if his room wasn't a mess, guess he takes after his old man though. Across his room, lying on a box, was a shirt that Paris found reasonable for the day and that's when a strand of webbing stuck to the middle of the shirt and Paris yanked back on it. Thinking back on it now, as he was going to leave his room, the team struggled with working together. Some members had difficulty trying to communicate with one another, or something of that sort. Maybe this mission would be harder than what Paris had anticipated for.

Scampering through the halls, papers shooting in the air, Paris sprinted, pushing people carrying documents to get to the meeting room in time. Luckily, he zipped himself up to the room just in time to catch the ending of it. The Director had explained who the leader would be to carry out this mission, and to his surprise, Agent Rand was picked to 'lead the charge'. Paris, in all honesty, didn't care and didn't question the Director's decision. As the room began to clear out, Paris had slight buzzing coming from his backpack. That same sound was also present during Paris' first training mission--which he doesn't like to talk about. His backpack swung around his arm and Paris reached inside to grab his mask, while he paced himself to the transport ship. The eyes of the mask blinked blue, meaning it was coming from headquarters, which only meant one thing...his dad. Paris slid the mask on and lightly said, "Hello?". At that moment, his father's voice became clear, "Paris, Tony just sent me some details on the current robberies. They're being committed by an organization known as the Hand.", which Paris said at the same time his father did. "So you know about them?", his father questioned. "Yeah, listen, I'm kinda going on my first mission as an Avenger.", Paris reinstated. "Right, right, right. Well good luck, I just thought I should keep you in the loop.", his father finished, followed by the sound of the call being hung up.

Since the call was over, Paris tore the mask off his head and gripped it in his hand, while taking a seat in the middle of the VTOL on the right side.

 

[Field Marshall]

The Beast head snapped upward with a metallic clank of metal on metal from Blood Knight's fist making contact with the Beasts head. It stayed there for a moment before cocking back into place. It flared some more smoke out of it's nose before it said. "Interesting." At the same time it was weaving one handed hand sign with it's left hand. Then it swiped at Blood Knight with it's left hand which burned with bright blue flames. The flames clearly had special properties which made them like the flames of a blowtorch but also having some sort of corrosive properties which if it didn't burn through Drake's armor it would corrode it.

At the same time alarms went off throughout Knightly Enterprises. Sounds of fighting could be heard at the outside entrances and on it's rootop. There were some Knightly Enterprises guards who were sent flying out of windows of higher floors. It was clear the inside the building was now a warzone of tech vs magic, modern day combat training vs hundreds of years of ninjutsu adaptation.

"Are you colorblind and trying guess the color I am wearing? I am clearly wearing black and what the hell is a Star Fox? Sounds like some childish parody of the Guardians of the Galaxy if crossed Star Lord with Rocket." Kenshin replied adjusting his mask as he entered the VTOL Soon everyone boarded the VTOL and the back raised up sealing it. Agent Rand walked up and down handing everyone metal rods instead of parachutes. "Parachutes would allow the enemy to see us coming a mile away. Coal is going to levitate us in. We are going to the headquarters of Knightly Enterprises." Agent Rand explained.

The VTOL then took off and rocketed towards New York City. It was a fast stable ride before the co pilot gave Rand a thumbs up. "Our objective is to secure the high value tech which is what the Hand are after. Remember where they are located. If you don't, I hope you took one of those SHIELD smart devices." Rand said. Suddenly the back of the VTOL was blown open and some black armored figure had Rand by the throat. "Agent Rand! How nice to finally meet you?" He said before flying out the back of the VTOL with their team leader. The mission had just started and already they lost their leader. The VTOL was stif lying stable however.

Kenshin looked at the others present and said "Nothing to do but carry on with the mission." Kenshin undid his restraints and then jumped out the back of the VTOL without a metal bar or a parachute. He angled himself to dive through mid air towards the Knightly Enterprises building. He summoned his tachyon field around him to act as his cushion for when he impacts. Kenshin went right through a window somewhere around the 30th floor. He crashed through several floors before stopping in what he thinks might be the 26th floor. His tachyon field disappeared as he stood up and surveyed his surroundings. He could hear Vision rambling in his comm device but wasn't paying attention till now.

"Proceed with the mission, your new default leader will be Kenshin as he has a good amount of experience with the Hand as well." Vision said.

"Funny problem I kind of jumped out ahead of the others I am not sure where they are?" Kenshin admitted in the comm and the others would hear that too.

"Your rally point will be the vault in the lower floor which is the most heavily guarded and likely where the most important piece of tech lies." Vision explained.

Elise watched as their team leader was pulled out and disappeared into the night. As if she weren't already freaked out enough, let's just add this to the list.Then Kenshin nonchalantly stated to continue and jumped out the back as well. Elise just stared in disbelief. What the Hell have I gotten myself into? She thought to herself. She heard Vision state over comms that Kenshin is the new leader. "Oh, that makes me feel so much better." She stated out loud. Elise grabbed a metal bar and stood near the open exit and deeply sighed. "Let's get this over with." She stated. Elise jumped out of the back and held the metal bar. She could probably land pretty well without it because of her strength, but she didn't want to test fate at this point.

Coal held back a laugh at Kenshin's comment about how he didn't look like Star fox. 'You dress like a fox... You get called Star Fox." He commented back as they entered the VTOL. Color didn't matter. There were many versions of the beloved game character.

Coal's mind had been set on the mission at hand. Lowering the others down would not make their presents known and Coal didn't mind. But what took him for a surprised attack only ended with their team leader being pulled out the back of the VTOL. Strikingly stating that this group was not fucking around. Without any other warning Kenshin was the next to leave.

Coal felt baffled at the quickness the other took to the mission. Leaving the group behind to fend for themselves. He had figured that Kenshin should lead the group in this mission due to his experience... But after this... Coal's mind was changing quickly. Especially when Vision spoke to them through their coms. He shook his head as he unbuckled himself from his seat. This was seriously going all kinds of wrong. And they had only begun.

He nodded to Elise as she picked up her bar and left the VLOT. He looked to the others as he made his way towards the back of the VLOT. "If you are joining us... Jump now." He stated as he took off as fast as he could into the night sky.

The wind rushed over him as he started to free fall towards the city. Talk about a rush. Coal took the moment to scan the ground below finding the targeted building. It stood out due to Kenshin's landing, which made things a lot easier for him to aim. He reached out with both hands, instantly detecting the bars that the others would be holding. To make things easier on them Coal began to reform the metal around the other's chest areas. Making sure that they were secure within the metal. He didn't want anyone to drop because of a loose grip.

Once the metal was in place on the others Coal took his aim. He wished that he knew what floor to land on... But Vision mentioned some lower level than the one Kenshin was on.... Heavily guarded and where the Hand would be focusing on the most. They needed to get to the tech first... Secure it and then get the hell out of there. Hopefully they would not lose anymore people.

Vision said they would need to be on the floor lower than Kenshin.... As their speed decreased Coal was able to get a better look at the building. His metal bands started to melt off of his wrists and form into little spheres in front of him and the others. He used one hand to push out throwing the spheres into the glass before them. Giving them access to the building. Coal quickly moved everyone inside. He made sure everyone was in before he entered himself. The metal around their chests melted off and joined the rest of the spheres from his metal bands. Some heading back to his wrists while others still floated around them. He was prepared to use them for their defenses when needed.

His eyes looking about as to where they had entered. But his magnetic fields started to branch out.... Trying to locate to vault. Just like how he mapped out the Helicarrier, he would do the same here.

"W-whoa.." Bianca breathed in amazement. She was amazed with all of the other member's powers, in a way that she knew she'd always be amazed everything they used them. If only her powers made her seemed more like a brave hero than a theif.

Bianca quickly slipped off her gloves and shoved them into her belt and glanced at the others. "Whatever you do, don't touch my hands... Okay?" Hah! Saying that probably made all her comrades trust her all the more... Not.. How the hell was she supposed to be a good team member if everyone else couldn't trust her with her bare hands? Besides, Bianca sensed the nervousness of everyone around her whenever she took her gloves off, knowing they were all afraid of her taking their memories or something.

"Vision where are the others." Kenshin said into his comm. He heard what sounded like the them jumping from the VTOL earlier and if they were alive they should be inside the building by now. "Well as team leader you should have stayed with them, they are on the floor underneath you." Vision answered. If Kenshin didn't know better, he would have said it sounded like sass. Kenshin drew his sword and stabbed it into the ground and spin cutting a circle around him. He promptly fell to the next floor. He saw them at the end of the hallway and then he looked the other way and members of the Hand.

They couldn't be heard but they and barely can be seen. Kenshin watched as a shurkiken was throw by him and went flying for Bianca's arm. It flowed as if enhanted so it was outside the realm of Coal's power to directly influence it with his powers not even his magnetic fields would slow it down as it has surpassed worldly logic. At best it was a warning shot meant to gdraw blood and I still fear. They fact they are using enhanted weapons means either they expected to enemies or knew of Coal before coming here. Kenshin backed up until he back was to his team. "Coal have you found it yet? It should be the most fortified box on the lowest level and I don't think they are going to wait for you." Kenshin explained. With a swipe of his sword he unleashed a bright red slash projection of tachyons which carve it's way down the hallway and cleaved several members in the center to pieces, due to the relative speed of tachyons and the destruction rought in the hallway one would think Kenshin somehow extend the length of his blade and reduced it instantaneously. Kenshin's slash projection are hard to time like one would simply weave through bullet with enough speed. The right kind of analyst could simply read Kenshin's movements to aim Dodge instead.

After Elise had been set down, she stayed near to Coal to make sure he was protected while looking for the safe. There was a loud crash and Elise prepped to fight, but it was just Kenshin. "Nice of you to join us, captain." She said the last word with sarcasm. Kenshin looked at the other end of the room as did Elise. The enemy were on their way and had projectile weapons. Elise waited for them to get near her so she could fight them. Field Marshall Super Villain Nova

Drake almost smiled when he hit the monstrous being but his small time of joy was cut short because the beast stay led just as quickly as he did. He dodge to the side of a burning hand but part of it caught the forearm of his armor and it instantly began corroding making Drake sneer and rip off the part of the armor,"Now I'm pissed."he says flying up up at blinding speed and then dropping back down faster with both fist in front of him trying to slam into the Beast. He knew that whatever he did he had to take this thing down and then deal with the rest of The Hand. Which he now could confirm is The Who the beast was stalling him for. He felt himslef slam right into the beast at full force his anger coursing through his body making him and the beast crash down about twenty floors.

Coal paused for a second at the sound of Kenshin's words... Not to mention that the supposed leader had now joined them. But his mind rushed to the words... lowest level... Seriously? Coal had only questioned in his mind. If he knew that he would have dropped the group further down the building. He grumbled a bit as he got down on one knee and placed a hand to the floor. He had to outreach his abilities directly below them. If he was to find this box he would need some time to search. "I'll need about a minute or so." Coal stated as he closed his eyes to focus. He could not be disturbed while doing this. When he mapped out the Helicarrier he had days of exploring and all of it was done in pieces. Not to mention the silence and less distractions of others wanting to kill them.

In his mind the building started to form a layout for him. Each floor more detailed than the last. It was like a cloud of gas quickly filling in the pieces of the puzzle. Surprisingly Coal found the safe and the item a lot quicker than he had expected. It was strange. The tech gave off a strange yet powerful reading. It was also located on one of the many basement floors. Hidden under the building and city. They were still very far away from their target and now the Hand knew they were there. Once again, he wished he knew where this safe was before they left for the mission.

But there was no changing that now...... Or was there?

Coal pressed his other hand to the floor increasing his magnetic fields. He knew he could not move the item itself..... But the safe was not bound by any metal magic. A sly smirk formed at the corners of his lips as he wrapped his magnetic fields around the safe. If it would take them longer to get to the safe.... Why not bring the safe to them.

Bianca glared at the striking, and dodged it quickly, wrinkling her nose. She noticed the smirk on Coal's face and she bite her lip to avoid nervousness and asked, "please tell me that look on your face does not include a bad thing with whatever plan is scheming in your brain."

She looked at Kenshin and Elise, and suddenly realized she was without powers for the moment.
"Ah dammit!" The girl quickly cursed under her breath, and pulled out two throwing knives.
"Kenshin you know these ninja people right? What the best place to hit them with a knife?" Bianca tightened her grip on the knife and felt her heart slowly climb up her throat. This had to be the first ever time during something this big that she was without another person's powers, and she was left with nothing but her knives. This was definitely going to be interesting.

The Beast as soon as the landed performed an ukemi breaking his contact with Drake and popping back to his feet. His hands were a blur as he weaved thousands of hand signs at once. Suddenly the Mandarin in his armor dragging Agent Rand busted through the floor. "My Lord? Noooo.. conserve your power!" He yelled as his purple ring lit up and created an aura around Rand. Using the little worse for wear Rand as a projectile he flung the boy at Blood Knight. The boy teleported onto Blood Knight before the two of them were teleported to the where the Avengers are inside Knightly Enterprises.

Kenshin replied "Knife? They'd probably catch it. If I can grab you one that uses magic, can you drain and effectively use their power? Ninja Magic is strange in which the real good stuff is through weaving hand signs you'd need to be able to extract all the necessary knowledge as well." He noted Elise's sarcastic remark about his arrival, she was right in the fact he did just leave them behind. Now more members of the Hand were arriving and inching towards the Avengers. Kenshin moved upward to face them as it seemed they needed to buy the others some time.

Then suddenly in a purple flash Blood Knight and Agent Rand both appeared between them and the Hand. They were teleported there by the Mandarin who probably didn't think too much about where he was sending them away to and by some factor likely relating to Rand they honed in on the team. Unfortunately the Hand showed no sign of slowing down.
