They laid hidden in the shadows. 5 figures dressed head to toe in dark metallic blue suits. Shatternaught a 7 foot tall brutish male with a hulk like physique. Lady Chain who's  ability was to make metallic tendrils from her body. Conduit whose body glowed and radiated through his metal suit containing the vast possibly infinite energy his body produced. Blade-Child the wild card of the group had her knives in her hand. They glowed a purplish hue ready to cut wanting to cut whoever tried to stop her. And finally their leader who's name was given to him by their master. Their leaders name was Equal. It was them who were chosen to enact the will of their master. Their orders take the D-Ark and capture its creator. There was a slight delay in their orders as the inventor had never shown his face at the unveiling. Their master did not approve of failure, but he did approve of using whatever means necessary to get their objective done. [color=0054a6]"Shatternaught, Blade-Child the second part of our objective has yet to show himself. Give him a reason too."[/color] Grinning from ear to ear the massive brute grunted approval of his orders and took his stance. His fist glowed bright orange and as it collided with the wall of the building the light faded then...[i]BOOOOMMM!!![/i] Smoke and debri cluttered one side of the room and before anyone could scream several energy slashes added as Blade-Child jumped over her companion laughing as the rich investors ran and hid screaming. Equal calmly walked through the chaos, surely this would bring out the fabled genius from hiding otherwise he would have to destroy this entire building to get him and he would most will.

Julius had felt the explosion from his lab. He looked toward the monitors and saw the events at the unveiling. Whoever these people were they weren't random thugs. They were trained, and this attack was planned if the wanted him he shouldn't keep them waiting. Julius took off his wielding mask and stepped toward his armor pad. The machine scanned his body then began the process of assembling and placing his armor. First the hands and feet, then forearms and shins, thighs and shoulders, chest and waist then finally neck and head. These people invaded his home, attacked people that didn't even know him, and more than likely wanted him and his technology for their own gain. They wanted Julius Vom Doom but unfortunately they would have would have to settle with Iron-Man.

Riri had already guided most of the guests to safety. The security force were being taken out like flies, barely buying them any time to get everyone else to safety. Before she could act however a tendril had wrapped itself around her neck personally from Lady Chain, as the tendril squeezed tighter and tighter it suddenly let go and Lady Chain was soon blasted into a nearby pillar. Julius crouched down to help him mentor to her feet.[color=598527]"Excuse me but Stark protocols dictate that anyone not wearing a scannable photo card must not be allowed into the building. I'm afraid you all will have to leave."[/color] Shatternaught grunted and charged at the armored hero only for Julius to place his hands on his chest and blast two bright repulsor beams like Chain and send the Goliath to the other side of the hall. [color=598527]"Now then..."[/color] he said opening his wrist his Omniweapom sliding out vibrating and glowing a bright green. [color=598527]"Who else wants a time out?"[/color]
