Mantis watched as the spiderwoman began to fashion some more webs. The angel addressed the team inquiring their motives. Mantis responded from above curtly, [color=green]"What does it look like we're doing? Taking out the trash."[/color] 

Then Zach confronted the two new intruders. As the tension escalated Mantis began to offer support by aiming his weapon down at them. Suddenly the woman shouted and fired off a projectile that sailed through the air and ripped through Zach's head, killing him instantly. It rolled on the ground until it came to a complete stop. Mantis did not feel anything from him again..

Mantis stared for what seemed like a minute, never turning his weapon from the intruders, but eyes fixated on what was Zach. The entirety of his PTSD came back to him in a single moment as it flashed before his eyes. The bomb threat. His team. The ensuing explosion and the high death toll that he was powerless to stop. [color=green]"No..no..no..."[/color] The words were barely audible, only coming out as a mere whisper. The flurry of emotion from all that trauma released throughout the warehouse in a burst as he finally yelled at the top of his lungs, [color=green][b]"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"[/b][/color] In a primal rage Mantis unloaded his Mp5 on the perps. The silencer did its job, but nothing could quiet the pain and anguish of a man who had seen his first team member beheaded before his eyes. 

All the conversation around him was completely shut out of his mind. He had but one goal, one driving [i]purpose[/i]. To put that woman down. [i]Nothing[/i] would get in his way. After unloading for the duration of his yell, he held his fire and brushed past Genevieve on the catwalk sprinting. 

He would follow their movements outside and would take another burst at them when they got into view. The mission was on hold..indefinitely..
