He opened up a portal back to the base and five raptors came rushing on through: Sasha, Argus, Kelso, Gilbert, and Queen. They all had harnesses on with their names embroidered in different colors, with symbols to indicate their personality. Gilbert had the poop emoji for example, Queen had a crown, and Kelso had bizarrely pancakes. These raptors had been trained to defend the Hub against intruders - they weren't meant for moon based combat. [color=53A981]"...You have trained genetically reconstructed dinosaurs?"[/color] Strange asked, shocked. [i]Trained[/i] was a key word. These raptors had only been taught to defend the Hub. They had no way of telling the good guys from the bad guys at the moment - maybe they'd be able to respond to seeing the SHIELD logo on some of the armor, but Fury wasn't there. And Fury was their mother more or less. Oh, and these raptors were by no means [i]standard[/i]. They had pegasus wings. Sasha galloped over to Tempest who was busy trying to tend to Tinley. The hacker had her back turned to the dinosaur as Sasha went in to bite off Tempest's head. Tempest moved her head out of the way just in time by pure coincidence as she crouched down to get a better vantage point on Tinley and her wounds. Tinley was dazed and completely out of it, assuming she was hallucinating Sasha the dinosaur. Argus took off into the air and dive bombed Maria, snapping her bow as the raptor grabbed it. He shook his head like a dog with a bone, as Maria was pinned underneath him. He had one of his legs - or paws - pressing down on her neck, suffocating her. Kelso went after Maria's wife, Novikova. Novikova huffed slightly, silently blaming Oliver for the [i]worst idea ever[/i] as she used her powers to bend the earth beneath Kelso's feet, yeeting the dinosaur up, up, and up into the artificial atmosphere. [color=add3ff]"Get off my wife, you Jurassic Park knock off!"[/color] Novikova screamed at Argus. The dinosaur didn't even look up at Novikova, much more interested in the giant chew toy of Maria's bow. Novikova sent gigantic earth spears launching out of the lunar surface, the makeshift weapons colliding into Argus. They didn't penetrate the dinosaur's flesh or skin, more of just knocking Argus back and off of Maria, letting her breathe again. The raptor pawed at the ground slightly before charging at the threat it identified - the silver haired Russian mutant. [color=add3ff]"PETA is going to be thrilled with us,"[/color] Novikova murmured, the ground rumbling around her. Gilbert went after Doctor Strange, which was a supreme mistake. Doctor Strange pushed his hand up against the raptor calmly, ejecting the raptor's astral form. The confused dinosaur was swimming around essentially as a ghost as its mortal body fell to the ground, motionless. [color=53A981]"Your plans are like Stark's too,"[/color] Strange told Oliver with disappointment. The last raptor, Queen, had zeroed in on Flynn. The raptor was obsessed with him, circling around him and looking for an opening to strike. The only issue? Flynn was on fire. The raptor was afraid of fire. Every second was a battle between its desire to rip Flynn's throat out and eat it as a nice tasty snack and its fear of flames. The raptor tilted its head at Flynn, as if challenging him to stop with the fire and fight the raptor unaided. Black Swan chuckled. "Is this supposed to impress us? Sending raccoons to fight yourselves like some sort of warm up?" she taunted. Her force fields fell down and her black eyes glowed red again, as she sent a beam of energy crashing down at Tinley. This time, she didn't severe her leg - [i]she severed her head[/i]. "You're powerless to stop us - give us Thane and no one else needs to die. You seem intelligence - you must realize this is the better way." On the ground, Proxima Midnight looked horrible. She had already sustained significant injuries at their earlier battle in Cardiff, most of them barely healed. With the bullets Matt had put through her, she was clinging to life. Yet she was incredibly proud and she wouldn't give in. Her original spear, the one Oliver had stolen from her earlier that day, had been flung earlier in the fight. She sprinted over to it and grabbed it, before turning to face Matt. She would die a warrior's death - and she was determined to bring him down with her. "Any last words, terran scum?" Gamora was still pretty cocky, emboldened perhaps by the backfiring of the raptor plan. She still had the Godslayer sword on her side and her brother, Thane, seemed to not have full control over his abilities. His strength would then be his undoing, his weakness, she was sure of it. Of course, it appeared he also had a girlfriend that was willing to fight his battles for him. "You two are cute," Gamora observed dryly. "Too bad she has horrible taste in men." Gamora then thrusted her sword forward, aiming to take Cass by surprise, but Cass would be able to easily dodge the blow. Nebula picked herself up from the ground. With her flesh arm, she pulled the EMP arrows off of her and threw them to the side. Her bionic arm and eye were sparking, flickering. The skin on her bionic arm had been melted off by Flynn, revealing the cold cybernetics that kept Nebula in fighting form. "I am not a Smurfette," she said seriously. She had no idea what it was, but it sounded bad. Nebula raised her wrists, ready to send out more blasts from her blasters. Instead though, Bonnie took advantage of the element of surprise. Maria was dealing with a dinosaur and Flynn was completely on fire with another raptor circling him. Both of those were excellent distractions and somehow, she just [i]knew[/i] that Nebula's attention was divided. She wasn't paying attention to the 'weak human' who had just narrowly managed to dodge the first round of attacks. Bonnie drew two of her throwing knives and she threw them, the knives cleanly slicing through the air. They both hit their mark dead on, as if this had been calm and routine target practice back at the Hub. The two knives embedded themselves in Nebula's brain and heart respectively, killing the granddaughter of Thanos instantly. Bonnie didn't feel shock or remorse for her actions. She hadn't killed before. Nebula's was the first life she had ended. [color=f6989d]"Flynn, the raptor's afraid of fire, try to ward it off!"[/color] Bonnie advised her boyfriend, moving on entirely from the new experience she had just checked off her bucket list as if she had just knocked Nebula unconscious.
