Yet the heart rate monitor for Oliver's mother kept on beeping steadily, getting even stronger in fact. His father stared in astonishment as Oliver's mother opened her eyes, burning with new intensity and light. "I love you too, sweetheart," she said softly, smiling at him, beaming with so much pride in her son. Quietly standing in the doorway was [url=https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/marvelcinematicuniverse/images/c/c7/Mar-Vell-Textless_Poster.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20190307001759]a doctor[/url] smiling gently at them all. Dr. Wendy Larson wasn't about to interrupt the moment, even though she had come here with an urgent message for Thane, son of Thanos. Her eyes flickered briefly over to the blood transfusion bag she had used before Oliver's arrival on his mother, noting that the bag still had an ever so slightly blue tint. As for Niah, things weren't nearly as charming. The doctors were working rather quickly on her, beginning the nasty process of amputating her leg from the knee down. They put her under anesthesia for the procedure, so we'll check back in on Niah later :) [center][hr][h3][color=84B4E2][b]Ellis Island - New York: 8:50 P.M.[/b][/color][/h3][/center][hr][hr] Bonnie shook her head sadly. [color=f6989d]"If it worked, we would've known Flynn had been replaced beforehand,"[/color] she said truthfully. She wasn't one to claim that she could do things beyond her abilities, to boast and brag about her scientific prowess. From what she could tell, the only way to tell if someone was a skrull would be either using Niah's power to look into the past or getting a telepath on hand. Unfortunately, the most powerful telepaths tended to be mutants and they didn't have the best relationship with SHIELD. [color=a64dff]"Crazy acrobat? That's so rude of you, jeez, you know my name! We survived Hel together, Alex!"[/color] Folly shouted. Falcon had her arms pinned behind her back and he wasn't about to let go any time soon, but it was helpful that Folly wasn't really struggling either. She was just having fun trolling the President of the United States. [color=7851A9]"I don't recall electing you team leader, but whatever,"[/color] Hawkeye told Kwassi. The person present with the most experience there was the Winter Soldier and Hawkeye wasn't about to suggest Bucky for leadership - the dude was crazier than a bag of cats. [color=7851A9]"I've got a secure location we can go to,"[/color] he added, lowering his bow. [color=7851A9]"Crazy can't go though. We'll need to drop her off somewhere. Maybe rich boy can take her at Serval."[/color] The Winter Soldier nodded, lowering his weapon as he went onto the quinjet, although he kept a close eye on Jakobsen. Agent 13 followed suit, as did Falcon and the rest. Bonnie bit her lip slightly, wondering what they could even do. If Jakobsen really was Jakobsen, then that meant that a skrull had impersonated the President. And if he wasn't, then there was another line of issues directly stemming from that. It did make sense though. It was easier to take over a country from the inside. She didn't like the idea of whether or not skrulls were taking out other world leaders as well. [color=f6989d]"We need to make contact with Niah and Oliver,"[/color] Bonnie said quietly to Cass. [color=f6989d]"And Sparky and the others, too."[/color] Hopefully they weren't being replaced by skrulls - she really hoped that Niah was still Niah, as they were going to need her. [center][hr][h3][color=84B4E2][b]Asgard - Breidablik: 1:00 A.M.[/b][/color][/h3][/center][hr][hr] Forseti, God of Justice, Reconciliation, and most recently Retribution as well, strode into the healing meadow with his father. Forseti had a certain burning intensity in his eyes as he stared at the captive skrull. "I'll hear her in my court once the sun rises," he determined. He snapped his fingers and Maria vanished. The Asgardians would know that one of Forseti's abilities was a teleportation of sorts, where he could instantly transport people due to stand trial into Odin's dungeon. Forseti then took in the rest of the room, his eyes lingering on Raynor longer than anyone else's. Amelia couldn't help but find the guy really creepy - but then again, she'd never been a huge fan of aliens throwing people into prison, although she knew that skrull!Maria deserved it. It didn't seem like they would have gotten any information out of her anyways, short of torture and there was [i]no way[/i] Amelia would have any part in that. [color=FFB795]"Is there anyway you can, I dunno, ban her from Earth or something, mate?"[/color] she asked Forseti. [color=FFB795]"Just in case you find her not guilty or whatever - like a space version of a restraining order, just for an entire planet..."[/color] The God of Justice, Reconciliation, and Retribution didn't answer Amelia. Baldur, the ever joyful god, looked incredibly troubled. From what he had surmised, Midgard had been invaded by shapeshifters. "Forseti and I will go speak to the All-Father. Perhaps the Host of Asgard can provide some aid for our Midgardian friends," Baldur proposed. "Nadia, would you mind asking the same of Lady Freya? We could use our allies from Vanaheim." Raynor didn't hear anything anyone else was saying - he was just staring at Sparky, considering the implications of what she was saying. She figured out he had been replaced a day later. There was a chance that the baby wasn't his. The logical conclusion then was that Sparky had been raped by a skrull and his eyes lit up with rage and fury. His anger and hatred consumed his thoughts and emotions so much that the sight of his long dead father didn't cause him to choke up with tears. [color=d86615]"I'm going to fucking kill every last skrull,"[/color] Raynor growled. [color=d86615]"I'll rip them limb from limb, starting with the one who raped you. Where is he? Is he in SHIELD custody?"[/color] The color drained from Amelia's face as she heard what Raynor said. She had no idea what to say or do in this situation. She had just met these people and it was as if they were on season six of a soap opera and she was just a new cast member. Even Nanna seemed visibly uncomfortable with it all, instead waving her hands as the flowers retracted from Astrad's wound and while there was a visible scar, it was all healed.
