The tapping stopped as another thought occurred to her. To make it work best, it wouldn't just be a virus that would attach to the X-gene initially that would act as an antidote. It would be easier to make one that would bind in every body, yet the X-gene would cause it to bind differently than in a normal human. It'd cut down the time needed between the release mechanisms significantly. [color=cc33ff]"Scratch the one week estimate. Could be a day, could be hours in between the two releases,"[/color] Guin said quickly, not even bothering to try to explain the science this time. Not everyone had studied molecular engineering and she had been studying it extensively this year, especially with even some tutoring from Hank. Unless they understood everything they could about how the virus worked, they wouldn't be able to stop it. Hearing Nina's more optimistic estimate, Guin shook her head and looked at her fellow S.H.I.E.L.D. agent. Her usual malice towards Nina wasn't present at the moment. [color=cc33ff]"Vaccine doesn't just latch onto the X-gene itself like these things normally do - it's easier to make one that just binds differently if the X-gene is present. Cuts down the absorption time significantly. But the second virus...that one we should still be in time for."[/color] They could try to evacuate New York, but they didn't have enough time. Not even Quicksilver would be fast enough to accomplish that. And if they did start evacuating the city, Magneto would just release the virus sooner. They had to take him by surprise. Guin sighed a bit when Pietro didn't remember the last two. [color=cc33ff]"Do you remember their abilities? Or have an idea of what they are?"[/color] She said her question at the same time that Cassandra said hers and Guin smiled a bit awkwardly, before turning her attention rapidly to Marygold as they got Beast on the line. Quickly, Guin rehashed everything she had told the others to him, though this time, her phrases were more scientific - rather than the easy to understand analogies she had given the team.
