Sparky couldn't help but roll her eyes slightly at Raynor given the fact that he was obviously comparing himself and Kwassi. Then again, she didn't really know Kwassi all that well, so she couldn't say much with regards to him. She had known him for what felt like only five minutes before she took off on a mission of her own, so she wasn't even sure how decent he was to have around in a fight. That was definitely going to be something interesting to find out. Then again they were currently with a group of people who had never really worked together or fought in a large group together, since there were several newer faces and whatnot with the group.

She waved slightly at Bonnie when she came out of the jet and seemingly started yelling at Niah to get into the medical area. "Hey there Bonnie," she said simply to her, as she watched Niah head into the jet after getting an earful from Bonnie. Sparky was a bit curious as to the whole thing that was about the Kree, they sounded like both an interesting race and one that you wouldn't want to mess with. "Ray how about you calm down a little bit and stop prying, if she wants to tell you she will but she doesn't have to..." she said to him, "Let's just get moving and out of here..."

"He looks like a normal cat to me, and he is a very sweet kitty aren't you?" he said as he continued to pet the cat happily. Of course a part of him was a bit curious as to what it was exactly that Bonnie meant by don't eat people or something like that. How could the cute little kitty sit there eating people or something like that? Now he was more then a little confused, but he set Goose back down on the ground, and the cat went racing off, heading straight in the direction of Bonnie's loud voice. Things definitely were more then a bit entertaining with this group, that much was obvious.

"Yeah, seems like they did," Alex added in response to what Matt had said with regards to them locking up a cat, he had no idea why, but that didn't seem to matter too much, and he headed out of the back area towards where everyone else was hopefully going to be coming back up the ramp and onboard the ship so that they could get going. He saw Niah and Bonnie, as well as Goose as the cat instantly went and rubbed up against Niah, purring happily as he did so. The cat was clearly happy, which he couldn't help but find amusing. "Hello there agent," he said, giving her a slight smile, "Looks like you got the short end of the stick in a fight."

Goose meanwhile was clearly having the time of his life around the hoomans. Until he suddenly stopped rubbing up against Niah, and started sniffing the air, clearly smelling something, and he charged further away from the jet and headed straight for Mar-Vell. "Mrow meow mrow mrow mrow!!!" he said as he charged. Jumping upwards with a big leap, the Kree caught the cat in her arms, and Goose was clearly happy as a clam, purring like crazy as he rubbed his head up against the Kree's face, clearly he knows Mar-Vell.

Flynn was perfectly fine with killing the Skrulls if they had to, and given what they had more or less put them through he felt like they for the most part deserved it. However he wasn't going to say something like that in front of the princess of the Skrulls apparently who they were currently walking with. They were clearly invading, so in his mind they should totally act in more or less self defense of their own planet and fight back, if a whole bunch of them died it didn't really matter to him, as long as they were gone from Earth and they could put this entire mess behind them.

"Nerds tend to be more academically knowledgeable, they know a lot about any sort of given field while a geek tends to be more of just an enthusiast, someone who loves a given field a whole lot. So some nerds are also geeks, but not all geeks are nerds, hence I am not a nerd I am a geek," he explained rather easily to Maria. "I read the sort of differences in a book... Once," he added as they got into the elevator with the Princess this time, though a part of him did think about him just randomly being able to read off a text book definition. It wasn't a common thing people actually knew, but he did have a photographic memory. "You are also assuming that I'm ever going to have kids," he then added to Maria as he waited for them to get back to where the others were.

Skrull Prison Ship - Orbiting Saturn

Anelle tilted her head at Maria. "I could do that easily, yet unless the Empress is actually on this vessel, it would be seen through easily as a ruse," she pointed out to her. Anelle doubted very much that her mother would be on this ship. If she had been, she would have come on by to gloat - and to solicit more information as to the whereabouts of Prince Dorrek. A moment later they were back with the others. Upon seeing the skrull with them, a majority of the Avengers tensed.

"Wow, Princess Leia, you've aged horribly. I always said moisturizers were bullshit, but looks like Pepper was right. Yikes. Do you break mirrors when you look into them?" Tony asked, holding what looked like a pipe as if it were a baseball bat.

"Stark, is it physically possible for you to stop quipping?" Hill asked, holding her own makeshift weapon. It was then that she realized a large problem with the scouting mission. They had no way of knowing if the return team were skrulls or not. She had to make a leap of faith and assume that they were all human, well, except for the skrull prisoner they had taken.

"Nope, it's a medical condition, Hill," Tony replied with a smirk.

The Wasp rolled her eyes slightly, sharing a bit of a glance with Black Widow. For a bunch of superheroes, they could be awfully childish. Mister Fantastic was helping out his wife with some breathing exercises, but thankfully she didn't seem like she was about to go into labor or anything. Captain Marvel was slowly coming to her senses, as were everyone else who had been drugged. "This is Princess Anelle," Wasp introduced, gesturing towards their new ally. "She's been filling us in on why the skrulls want Earth. Their planet was destroyed by Galactus."

"Yes, that is true," Princess Anelle spoke up. "The Empress has convinced my people that a prophecy gave your planet to us, to be our new home world... My people are misguided and confused. The sin is the Empress' alone."

Black Widow frowned, taking in all of the information. "Got it," she then said, figuring they could interrogate the princess more later. "I think it's time to storm the bridge. Everyone's ready, if we rush them at once we should be able to take them all by surprise." she reasoned.

"I wish Ben were here to say this... but it's clobbering time!" the Human Torch cheered, as he flamed on. On Black Widow's mark, the group of superheroes rushed down the hallway to the bridge, kicking down the door to find forty four skrulls, all but four of the skrulls armed.

Jersey City Boardwalk - New Jersey: 11:00 P.M


Amelia was too naive and innocent to really consider whether someone she barely knew would have missed her smile and personality - that and once more, Kwassi's presence among the crew was comforting and reassuring to her. She giggled slightly as Kwassi repeated the nickname that she had used for Raynor - Thor Jr. - knowing very well how crabby and ill tempered Raynor was. He seemed to have the emotional range of a pack of hungry wolves. She really hoped that Kwassi wasn't a skrull.

Raynor shot a glare at Kwassi for the Thor Jr. comment. He hadn't been happy when Amelia said it and he didn't want it to become a regular thing. He didn't want to be reminded about his uncle - especially not when Thor was one of the biggest buffoons he had ever known. He hadn't cried when Thor died due to Ragnarok. "Asokho's clean," Raynor announced gruffly. "And for the record, the next person who calls me Thor Jr. loses an eyeball - and yes, I can confirm that I am in fact telling the truth there."

Bonnie shook her head slightly at Kwassi's description of the President's behavior. She had a different opinion about the entire matter, one that was vastly different than his, but she also didn't have the time to debate with him about it. Niah needed to be seen to ASAP and it was incredibly late - she was exhausted. It was almost midnight. Thankfully though, Niah didn't seem like she was going to fight her about it, and Bonnie directed Niah to the medical bay on the ship.

"Fine," Raynor grumbled to Sparky. "Someone needs to test me though," he added. He wasn't a skrull, but he hadn't been tested at all and he knew it would only be fair to do so. Niah was on the ship again though getting treated, so he figured he'd just follow on after her, only to pause as Goose came rushing off the quinjet and leapt into Mar-Vell's arms like they were long lost friends. He frowned, trying to figure out what that was about, before something clicked in his head.

"So you're how Fury ended up with a flerken..."

Mar-Vell nodded, smiling as she scratched Goose behind the ears. "Hmm, were you good for Fury, little one?" Mar-Vell asked, before kissing Goose's forehead. "Who's my little bouncing ball of photons? You are, yes you are!"

"Erm, not to be rude, but what's a flerken? Is that like a posh breed of cat that I don't know about?" Amelia asked. She never really thought about it before, but she supposed since there were tons of different kinds of dogs, there had to be lots of different kinds of cats too. But was a flerken just an alien cat? Were there alien dogs? Could she end up with an intergalactic corgi? Did they have purebred standards in space or was that a weird Earth thing?

Quinjet - New Jersey: 11:00 P.M


Guiding Niah into the medical bay, Bonnie raised a bit of an eyebrow at her descriptions. If she had to guess, the story was somewhat embellished due to the painkillers Niah had been treated with - yet she couldn't discount it entirely, clearly something had happened as Niah was missing a leg. "Even if I were a skrull, I would still be mad at you," Bonnie said, putting on a pair of exam gloves as she started examining the job done on Niah's leg. The work wasn't the best she had seen, but it wasn't the worst. It was mediocre. "Do you happen to know what drugs they gave you?" Bonnie asked, feeling very strongly the answer would be not. "It's okay if you don't, I'll just need to run a panel first before giving you anything... Well, besides this," she said, pulling a lollipop out from a bag and offering it to Niah.

Cassandra watched as Goose suddenly bolted out of the medical area and over onto the ramp of the Quinjet jumping up into Mar-Vell's arms, as she stood up looking at the two seeing the cat was happily purring in her arms. She stood just at the enterance of the Quinjet looking at the group still outside, she turned to Amelia asking about what a Flerken was and smiled a bit. "Goose isnt an ordinary cat he is actually an alien, he's very intelligent also has massive tentacles in his mouth to and will eat just about anything but prefers being spoiled with treats." Cassandra answered her she stared at Kwassi for a moment and rolled her eyes slightly towards him. She couldnt help but actually make a comment about it as she cross her arms and stared at him.

"I think you just really dislike him at this point." Cass pointed out letting out a slight sigh as she gestured to the Quinjet, they needed to get going right now. "Now hurry up and get inside." She said before going back inside of the Quinjet and made her way over towards the medical area seeing Bonnie working away at Niah. "Is there anything I can do to help?" Cass asked.




Evelyn Holder

Evelyn watched as Niah entered the medical area she decided to keep her distance for now as she watched the cat bolting off to go and check out who was outside. She went and sat back down in one of the seats as she took out one of her swords and and then started to clean the blade with her shirt.

Evelyne leaned back slightly listening to everyone around her as she watched Niah and Bonnie as she was treated by her, seeing the missing leg she winced slightly. She just wanted to get going now already and try and get rid of this skrull threat that everyone was talking about, she hoped to be cleared as well to as soon as possible.

"Okay you totally leveled up you are both a geek and a nerd then." Maria teased Flynn some more just as the elevator opened seeing the others tensed up slightly seeing that they had a skrull prisoner with her. "She's with us, so relax." Maria said calmly as Wasp went and debriefed the others on who Princess Anelle was. They still did have a lot of answers but right now they needed to just focus on getting back home as soon as possible. Maria turned to look at Anelle for a moment figuring that she wanted to be safe and nodded slightly at her answer. "Alright then just stay here." Maria said as she quickly followed everyone else to the bridge.

Luckily she still had Flynn's powers as she saw the number of Skrulls were on the bridge, she saw that four of them were armed, she held out one arm and fired off a wave of fire from her hands and managed to burn three of them. Maria was about to fire off another wave of fire when one of the skrulls managed to get a lucky shot and aimed at her head. But managed to hit her in the cheek, she stumbled backwards holding her cheek as she could feel blood. She dug into the wound managing to pull out the bullet crying out in pain as it came out, the bullet wound on her cheek slowly started to heal again.

Kwassi Asokho





Location: Boardwalk
Skills: Photographic Memory : 16



There appeared to be a bit of confusion or miscommunication as Raynor began to get irrate at Kwassi calling him Thor Jr. It wasn't until Agent Sparks had called him Ray that he remembered Agent Reed called him Raynor a bit before that. Clearly this wasn't a nickname that he wanted to have around, so Kwassi made a mental note to not call him that again. He wished he could continue his conversation with Bautista outside, speak about Wakanda, how she got there, and what she saw in private. As well as her knowledge of the President and why it was he pulled a gun on him. To an extent Raynor seemed to be the only one as on edge as he was about the Invasion of the Body Snatchers. But even he was being asked to calm down.

Kwassi gave Thor Jr a smile "Thank you Raynor for clearing me." was all he could get out as the man tailed behind Bautista and the others heading onto the Quinjet. It seemed people were finally in a rush to get going to their mystery destination. As Kwassi entered the Quinjet once more he made sure to stay on the opposite side of the room from Jakobsen. There couldn't be any fighting or arguing if they never interacted, and that was fine with him. After all once everyone was cleared of their potential skrull status then they can finally begin to work together with trust that the others won't randomly shift and call for another fleet of killer aliens.

Oliver Sullivan

Skills: N/A


As everyone was checked, save for Raynor, Oli silently prayed that Raynor would come up as not a skrull. It would absolutely drag everything if they have to recheck everyone, and it would throw everything into chaos. The biggest problem, of course, would be that they couldn't identify if Niah was a Skrull or not, and that would throw absolutely everything into chaos. They'd have to go off of hope at that point, and that was not at all the way he liked to do things.

He couldn't really think of another viable option though, unless he choose to keep information to himself. The only possible way at all to keep information secure would be for him to keep information to himself, and tell people the minimum information possible. Of course, the other people wouldn't have any way of knowing if he were a skrull or not, so that wouldn't be at all a good option. They'd have to come together as a team and reassess at that point. Of course, if both Niah and Raynor were skrulls, all certainty went out the window anyway, but they had to take some things for granted.

"Goose! I love you too. I am sorry I do not have any treats, but I promise I will as soon as I can get to a store." She really did love that cat. He had helped her figure out that she could time travel. She was glad to see he was okay. She was sad to see him hurry off outside the jet, but it was his prerogative. If Goose had something to do she wasn't going to stop him. It'd be like trying to stop a sentient tank. She giggled at the image of Goose driving a tank, which she figured he probably could do anyway.

"Howdy." Niah said...to the President of the United States. "I fought a bear with Oliver. Pretty certain it created an alternate reality filled with our worst fears before trying to maul me to death, which you know for me is basically par for the course." She said shrugging slightly before turning to Bonnie and answering her question.

"I don't know sorry. I was mostly unconscious when they began the surgery." Niah's eyes lit up at the offered lollipop. "Heck yeah a lollipop. Thank you." She said before unwrapping the candy and starting to enjoy it. "Hi Cass." Niah said popping the lollipop out of her mouth. "Bonnie gave me a lollipop. I haven't had one of these in ages. Why do we as adults just deny ourselves simple pleasures like this? We face insane amounts of danger daily, especially us. And we just don't enjoy lollipops often enough for that kind of drama."

Matt stayed in his seat. He watched Evelyn for a moment. Thinking about her power set. It wasn't that dissimilar to his own. His secondary power that had been activated on the moon, thanks to Oliver, gave him the ability to pick up any weapon and intrinsically understand how it worked.

"Evelyn, you said your power was being able to mimic fighting styles after watching them. Have you gone out of your way to collect different fighting styles? Or let them cross your paths? I recently acquired a similar power and haven't had much chance to explore it." A part of him wanted to ask Evelyn if he could hold her sword just to see if he could now use it, but he wanted to chat a bit first.

"There are probably worse things that people could call you then Thor Jr you know, but guessing that threat likely would apply for not just that but anything that might be worse right?" Sparky said with a slight laugh, before she glanced over at the little furball who was just sitting there purring in Mar-Vell's arms. "Considering how things have been, it's nice to see Goose, he's a chaotic cat, but that sadly counts for some stability and recognition with him being around." Yup, she did like the cat, and when she didn't know where Raynor was, the cat had provided some comfort to her.

The furball was clearly loving all of the attention, and the cat glanced over at Amelia when she seemingly asked what a flerken was. Goose stared at her for a moment, before opening up his mouth and a few of the tentacles shot out, waving slightly at her. Soon afterwards, the tentacles disappeared again into his mouth and he closed it again. "Mrow," he said to her, as he was still purring in Mar-Vell's arms.

"Guess that would answer your question more exactly, it is a bit insane to think about it, so be glad that Goose decided to open up his mouth, since let me tell you just hearing about it and not seeing it makes it a little less believable," she said to Amelia before looking at Raynor. "Come on Ray, Niah can check to clear you," she said before she headed onto the quinjet and saw the others who were onboard. She waved slightly at people before she went and took a seat on the jet, waiting now for them to get going to wherever it was that they were heading.

"And you are clearly high out of your mind, just wow, though getting mauled by a bear that messes with your worst fears sounds insane enough that it might actually have been a real thing or something," he said to Niah, giving her a slight smile as he saw more and more people were starting to join the others on the ship. All that mattered to him was that they got out of this area rather quickly despite the chaos. They had already been in the area for too long, so there wasn't much else that could be done, once everyone was cleared they'd be heading to wherever Hawkeye was going to drag them all.

Another thing crossed his mind, and he glanced over at Bonnie as she was keeping an eye on Niah, and he figured she'd be the person to ask. "Does she have the go ahead to clear people of being the shapeshifting aliens or does she have to wait a bit? Probably guessing it depends on if she feels up to it," he asked, looking at the two of them. He figured that he'd ask about it, since he hadn't really been cleared as a not Skrull, so he thought he'd ask about having Niah clear him or not to make things a bit easier and a bit quicker.

"I am not a nerd, and the two terms are not interchangeable so get that through your thick skull before I set you on fire," he said to Maria clearly a little annoyed with her on the subject. "I've got a photographic memory, I remember something if I just read it or see it once, so anything that might seem like I'd be a nerd is more of just from me accidentally having a really good memory and nothing else... Depending on what the subject is anyway. So no, not nerd, never have been a nerd and never will be." Yup, he did not like being called a nerd at all.

Of course, it wasn't all that surprising that when they went back up the elevator the others in the group were more then ready to start knocking them out. At least things were calmed down relatively quickly as the group then started heading for the bridge. He glanced over towards the princess, as she seemingly had stated before that she didn't want them to have to kill any of the Skrulls that were there. "...Sorry, this probably isn't going to end well. In order for the rest of us to get out of here alive, we don't really have much of a choice... We don't have much time to come up with another plan that might result in us not killing any of them like you had asked, but if we get caught, we're going to have to fight and more will likely die if that happens... And for that, I'm sorry..." he said somewhat softly to her, giving her a bit of a smile, before he raced after the others to the bridge, prepared to fire off some flames.

Skrull Prison Ship - Orbiting Saturn

Princess Anelle didn't follow them onto the bridge - not at first, at least. It was only when she saw through the opening that Maria had burned three skrulls alive that she ran forward blindly, going into the fray. "Stop, please!" she begged, crying even despite what Flynn had said to her. "They are innocent, they are not your enemy, the Empress is!" She gasped in horror as Flynn roasted alive ten of her countrymen. Two of the skrulls Maria and Flynn had killed were unarmed, defenseless.

"Someone get the civilian out of here!" Black Widow shouted. She had leg-scissored her way into taking out one skrull, and used their weapon to take out two more.

"I'm not a babysitter, someone else can do it!" Tony shouted, swinging essentially a big pipe at a skrull, but the skrull was faster than him. The skrull fired off its weapon at Tony, hitting him in the chest and critically damaging his arc reactor. He was going into cardiac arrest. "Damn... it... Richards... Help..." Tony wheezed.

"I'll cover you," the Invisible Woman said, creating a force field bubble around herself and Reed, as they moved as quickly to Tony as they could. They didn't have much in the way of supplies, but Richards was one of the smartest men alive. If anyone could save Tony, he could (or another Tony).

"Guess I'm the babysitter," Wasp sighed, as she rushed up to Anelle. Anelle tried to struggle, but she was no match for the Wasp, having hardly any training in how to fight. The Wasp dragged Anelle on out of the room with ease, as Anelle was still screaming and begging for the Avengers to stop.

Hill was locked in hand to hand combat with three skrulls, not making much headway. The Human Torch was taking a queue from Maria and Flynn, blasting skrulls with fire - although maybe the drugs hadn't totally left his system, as he only managed to hit one. Captain Marvel was about to fire off an energy blast at a skrull, only for them to take fire on her, forcing her to duck behind a console for cover. She-Hulk meanwhile had grabbed two skrulls and was flinging them around in circles, trying to get them to surrender that way she didn't need to kill them.



May 18th, 2021


Clint Barton's Homestead - Missouri: 8:00 A.M.


The previous night, they had managed to finish testing everyone to see if they were a potential skrull. Mar-Vell helpfully explained that flerkens could detect skrulls, although no one was really quite sure how, and Raynor had confirmed that she wasn't lying about that fact. Goose had been showered in some cat treats Bonnie found at a nearby store as a reward (although she had largely gone there to get some more lollipops to use as bribes on Niah). Once everyone was confirmed to not be a skrull, Raynor and Mar-Vell stashed the two extra ships, before being picked up by Barton in his quinjet.

The entire group then flew to an unknown location, arriving in the dead of night. Barton hadn't explained where exactly they were, just claiming that the place was off the grid and he wanted to keep it that way. There had only been three rooms available, so everyone got real nice and cozy with each other and pretty much had to snuggle to keep warm. Captain Rogers and the Winter Soldier had spooned. It was adorable.

Somehow, despite having been asleep for months, Raynor was out like a light. He had snagged one of the few beds in the room for Sparky and himself, playing the pregnant card in order to fight other people's claims to it. He hadn't let go of Sparky the entire night, clinging to her like she was a life raft. He always looked a little more vulnerable in his sleep, almost peaceful. In fact, he would have stayed peaceful if it hadn't been for the pounding on the door.

"Get up, everyone, breakfast is ready!" Hawkeye shouted.

Raynor threw a pillow at the door, only for the pillow to fall short and hit Amelia. Amelia hadn't minded at all sleeping on the floor. It was better for her back anyways, and there was something just a little bit romantic about the entire thing - not romantic as in dating and whatnot, more just... a sort of fantasy type of romantic. She had been able to look up at the little cracks in the roof and catch glimpses of the stars, hearing the quietness that meant they were far away from the city, far away from skrulls and explosions and death defying stunts. "Oi, you better work on your aim, mate!" Amelia shouted, picking up the pillow and throwing it back at Raynor.

"You better work on your aim," Raynor grumbled, only half awake so he didn't come up with a better comeback. He didn't know why he felt so incredibly tired. Maybe it had just been the emotional toll that yesterday had taken on him. Or maybe his body hadn't actually been ready when Sparky woke him up on Asgard. He had been plagued by nightmares that night, largely focusing on the fiery destruction of Ragnarok. He still remembered the events leading up to it - his father's murder at the hands of his brother, his mother's suicide as grief consumed her... It was too painful, but his mind had forced him to relive it over and over again.

"Wow, such a drip insult," Amelia replied, giggling a bit. She stretched her arms out and tilted her head from side to side, before getting up off the floor. She tiptoed out of the room, doing her best not to disturb anyone, as she tried to retrace her steps from the previous night. It had been so late when they arrived yesterday and after all of the adrenaline and excitement, she had been out like a light the minute it was safe to sleep. She had dreams of cats with pasta noodles instead of tongues - and at one point, Amelia was pretty certain she had turned into a meatball and the cats tried to eat her.

Bonnie had spent the night with Niah, ensuring that she wasn't going to die or develop an infection or anything like that. She was incredibly tired, but it wasn't anything new for her. She had had to push herself like this in school, working off of limited sleep and still being expected to produce exceptional results. When Hawkeye had come by to announce that breakfast was being served, Bonnie knew that Niah was likely going to be incredibly stubborn and insist on joining the others - at least they had the room on the ground floor, so there were no stairs to have to navigate. "How's your pain?" Bonnie asked Niah, after she had gotten up. "I can give you some more medicine - and try to keep the dosage at a low enough level that you don't lose your wits, unless you think you need more."

She then backed up, opening up the door and holding it open for Niah as she stepped outside. Bonnie glanced over her shoulder, seeing a comical sight. There was a massive plastic table set up, with high profile Avengers squeezed in, eating Lucky Charms and Cheerios. It was strange to see Captain America, the Black Panther, Spider-Man (with his mask on, of course, only taking it off partially to expose his lips so he could eat), the Winter Soldier, Falcon, Agent 13, Hawkeye, Mar-Vell and... Bonnie did a double take.

"Good of you to finally join us, Agent Chase," Nick Fury called out, scratching Goose behind the ears. "Once this is over, you and I need to talk. I trust I don't need to tell you what about."

Bonnie couldn't help but feel a bit flustered. She hadn't told anyone about what was happening to her, but she didn't doubt for a second that somehow, Fury knew. Fury always knew. He wasn't the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. any more but he was still THE spy, the ultimate spy, the only person who probably knew every secret in the world. "Erm, yes, sir. I look forward to it, sir."

Cassandra had fallen asleep on the floor next to Matt, though it was a bit uncomfortable and the pain in her eye had started to come back as well to she didnt get to much sleep after they made it to Hawkeye's little hideout. She slowly groaned as she heard Hawkeye knocking on the door and slowly stretched out, Cass cracked her neck slightly. She rubbed her good eye as her vision cleared up some more she looked down at Matt and gently nudged him and then gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek. "Time to get up love." Cass said to Matt as she stood up and made her way out of the room and into the kitchen of sorts.

Seeing just about everyone was up now at this point some were eating some cereal that was set up, Cass then froze for a moment seeing Nick Fury there holding Goose. She wasnt expecting to see him at all there, but it was actually good to see the former director there before her now as well to. Hearing Nick Fury addressing Bonnie for a moment, she wasnt sure what he actually meant by that as she walked over to Bonnie. "Whats he talking about?" Cass whispered to Bonnie.

During the flight Evelyn took the time to explain more about her power, she had over time she had learned some marital arts, but most recently she had learned how to properly handle handguns.

But she did like the range and accuracy as well over just simply using throwing knives to, she was willing to let Matt try and use one of her swords if he ever did ask.

Evelyn had slept rather peacefully throughout the entire night, as she slowly woke up and stretched slightly, after she heard Hawkeye knocking on the door waking everyone up. She slowly left the room and met with the others seeing just about everyone was eating some breakfast. "Good morning everyone." Evelyn said as she went and fixed herself a bowl of cereal to eat.

Maria turned to hear Princess Anelle screaming and crying to stop killing her people, she closed her eyes for a moment and sighed slightly she wasnt sure if any of them were innocent since they were here keeping them prisoner on this ship. But a part of her wondered if they had families somewhere on these ships as well to. She was married and had a child on the way as well to, as Maria looked at the skrulls that they were fighting. "Try and not kill them if you guys can." Maria said deciding to get up close and personal with the skrulls instead as she charged forward to the closest skrulls.

Maria had some hand to hand combat skills, as she managed to land a few good punches on two of the skrulls closest to her knocking them out with ease. Her attention turned to another skrull as it managed to land a punch hitting her in the nose, and stumbled back slightly feeling her nose bleeding slightly. She went in for another hit, only to accidentally hit her forehead against the skrull and stumbled back again looking at the skrull and glared at it.

Niah was in pain. She also understood the phantom itch thing now, which was super irritating. The silliness of the drugs had worn off. But a part of her that had broken when the bear had almost killed her was more carefree than she had been in years. She was in a better mood than she had been since before joining Phase Three even.

She smiled at Bonnie. "It feels like my leg is on fire a bit. And my foot itches, but I suppose I'll get used to that." She smiled. "I trust your judgement. I'd rather not be punch drunk silly again though." She followed Bonnie out carefully to the set-up table outside. She raised an eyebrow at Fury being there. Remembering her fear of him being an imposter long before they knew about Skrulls. But Goose was content with him so he had to be himself. He couldn't be an LMD or a Skrull. Goose wouldn't have allowed it. So any tightening in her chest went away immediately.

"Good morning Fury. Pleasure seeing you again." She smiled at him. Her eyes scanning the rest of the group. Many she had met, some wouldn't remember meeting her. Like Spiderman. She hadn't met the Black Panther, but she had met his sister, which reminded Niah that Kwassi had said he was from Wakanda. And even though the thought of Wakanda brought so much pain to Niah she was still smiling.

Matt hadn't minded sleeping on the floor. He had definitely slept in weird and harder-to-sleep places. "Morning dear." He said kissing Cass good morning before following her outside to join the others. He went for a cup of coffee first. His routine normally included a workout before coffee but he needed the extra jolt of energy for the conversation they were bound to have.

He had not been with the Secret Warriors while Fury had been in charge, though he had been part of SHIELD. He was surprised that he was in Barton's super-secret place. But no one seemed to be bothered by it. Matt took a seat leaving an empty spot next to him for Cass. There was going to be another round of introductions he thought. He knew most everyone at the table by reputation, but not everyone.

Kwassi Asokho





Location: Batron Homestead
Skills: Photographic Memory : 16



Kwassi hadn't bothered trying to fight for a bed. Those who needed it most were the injured, and pregnant. He had spent many nights in rough terrain or a cold stone ground laying in wait for his prey, and this was not much different. When they had arrived he wasn't one of the many who went straight to bed. There was a lot to process there, so much had happened and so he did what he knew best to clear his head. Kwassi stood outside in the cold night air, taking in the expanse of the sky, the stars that shone with such brilliance that he began to wonder why he ever stayed in the city. The air smelled crisp and clear and it hadn't a trace of pollution or smog. He just stood there arms spread apart as he let the breeze blow past him and his shirt ruffled with a light sound of flapping. Kwassi took in a long slow breathe, his chest expanding as he held it in and then slowly breathed it out.

He grabbed a hold of his escrima and began moving through the motions. Practicing his basics and fundamentals, the things people tended to forget in place for fancier moves, the things that he could use to trip someone up because they get too cocky. As he continued to fight the air, he worked on using his sticks expandable properties, extending it at the right times to get the most out of his momentum while also adding more bang to his punch. In reality he would be training to fight someone, something, but tonight it was just motions used to clear his head. After some time had passed he finally headed off inside, rinsing off in the shower before making his way into one of the rooms and taking a seat in the corner of a wall. He laid his back against the flat of the wall, resting his head and shoulder against another as he sat criss cross and allowed himself to fall asleep with his weapon in his hand.

Morning came abruptly it seemed, as Hawkeye shouted for them all to get up. Kwassi wasn't one to drag about especially when there wasn't a Starbucks nearby to make him late. So he stood up, feeling the aching effects of having slept on a floor and stretching himself out as he felt the soreness begin to leave his muscles. He made his way downstairs to see the oddest, or coolest, breakfast he had had the pleasure to see. Kwassi went to grab a bowl of cereal as well, stopping before T'challa as he placed a hand on his chest. "My king." He pressed forward, grabbing his bowl and standing off to the side as he ate his food.

Oliver Sullivan

Luckily, they all came up skrull free, so most of Oli's paranoia was assuaged, though there was always a small bit of him itching at the ways he could be wrong. It might be trauma or just his general neurosis, but he found it hard to relax these days. He didn't find this particularly unreasonable though, he had been attacked by a literal demon bear, and they were dealing with a practically invisible threat. Anyone he looked at could be a skrull, and he'd been living with this fact for a long time now. It was bound to wear down a person, and Oli was far from the most stable in the first place. On the flight, Oli debriefed the team, relaying to them what Mar-Vell had told him.

Sleep that night had been one of the best he'd had in months, oddly. Sure, there was still the existential threat to the planet, but he knew his mother was safe, or at least as safe as all the other humans were, for the first time in months. No nightmares, no waking up in the middle of the night, just rest. This was only to be interrupted by Hawkeye unceremoniously rousting him from his reprieve. Waking up, running his hands through his hair to roughly make it presentable, he headed down to see the table of heroes filled with his team and... Black Panther. Oli exhalled. He didn't want to seem angry at the man, but he held the Illuminati responsible for this situation.

Sparky was glad that they had seemingly gotten somewhere safe, for the time being anyway. She wasn't entirely sure what to really think with regards to their situation. They had to go deal with the Skrulls still, and they had no idea if the members of their group who had ended up caught by the Skrulls were alive or not. She hoped that they were alive, since that would not be good if they weren't. Now was not the time to think much about that though. Secretly, she was glad that Raynor had argued for why she should get one of the few beds at least, even though she would have been fine on the floor if others had really argued for the bed.

Alex was fine with the floor, he'd definitely slept in worse places then that despite popular belief. He clearly remembered the occasional day when he was a kid involving him falling asleep in a barn back in his hometown. Falling asleep surrounded by cows and horses wasn't the best place to sleep, definitely more then a bit uncomfortable. Plus back when he was in the military that sort of thing helped him get used to sleeping in uncomfortable places. It just was a bit of preference, but not like he wasn't used to it at all or something.

Then came the banging on the door, that definitely woke her up, and she found Raynor throwing the pillow somewhat amusing. Not him hitting Amelia with it by accident, but him trying to throw it at the door in general was just funny. "You missed the door," she commented to him with a bit of a giggle towards him. "Come on sleepy head, get up we should probably get going," she added, as she got up from the bed. Sparky was more then ready to tackle this situation, since then once everything calmed down they hopefully wouldn't have to worry about the Skrulls.

Everyone was clearly heading out and into the main area after Hawkeye seemingly decided to start banging on the doors. So Alex figured he might as well head out too. He still had more then a scratches and his body was sore still from his crash landing the day before. He remained fairly quiet as he entered the area everyone else was in. Fury was there and he wondered partially why he had been removed from the job of being the director of SHIELD. That made no sense to him, maybe when this was all over he'd try and figure out why and maybe get him back in the job.

Goose of course was a happy little furball. His normal hooman was back! Of course, Fury tended to be able to tell a lot of what he was saying, or trying to say anyway, which made it a whole lot better. The cat was purring rather loudly so everyone could easily hear him and tell that he was a happy little kitty.

He wasn't too sure what to think about the entire situation. One thing was for certain, he hadn't expected his fire attack to be as devastating as it ended up being. That partially being because he uses weapons more often then his actual powers, so seeing how strong of an attack he could do was more then a little interesting. Fire wasn't something someone typically wanted to mess with, so he ended up burning a whole lot of Skrulls without even really trying. Well this entire situation was screwed up to begin with, so they might as well have more things to deal with.

Hearing the princess yell out about killing them, he dimmed the fire back down and switched to less lethal means of attacking the Skrulls. The situation kept escalating as Stark went down as a shot from the Skrulls damaged his arc reactor, which from what he knew was a really bad thing and might result in his death or something like that. He thought nothing more of it though, as he instantly went up and managed to knock down a group of 3 Skrulls, taking them out of the fight, and he whirled around and knocked down an additional 2 more. They needed to take down all of the Skrulls, at least incapacitate them or something like that so they could get this ship out of there.

Skrull Prison Ship - Orbiting Saturn

The Invisible Woman was both providing cover via force field and brainstorming with Mister Fantastic as to just how to save Tony Stark's life. They didn't have a lot of supplies to work with, but Mister Fantastic realized that if he just morphed the shape and size of his fingers, he was able to repair the arc reactor without any tools. The arc reactor gave off a few sparks, before roaring back to life. Tony was still unconscious though, but he was breathing - a win.

Meanwhile, Black Widow had killed four more skrulls, not believing in non-lethal combat. Hill took out two, as did She-Hulk. Captain Marvel pulled off a mini supernova to take out an additional five. The Human Torch, sadly, was knocked out - he had been surrounded and the skrulls fired on him at once, causing Johnny Storm to Flame-Off and slam into the ground. His head was bleeding and he was out cold.

"You two might want to hurry, the GM is getting impatient," She-Hulk advised, looking directly at Maria and Flynn.



May 18th, 2021


Clint Barton's Homestead - Missouri: 8:10 A.M.


Bonnie hesitated for a moment - she didn't want to lie to Cass, but she wasn't ready to talk about this with other people just yet. Fury was intimidating enough that she didn't dare tell him no. "It's nothing, just a side project the director asked me to keep an eye on when he left," she lied smoothly. She then took advantage of the opportunity to go fuss with getting Niah some medicine, so she doubled back into the room she had just came from, fishing around for the pill bottle she was looking for.

T'Challa smiled at Kwassi, always happy to see one of his countrymen out in the world fighting for what was right. He returned Kwassi's gesture with a traditional Wakandan salute, crossing his arms in the shape of an X with his fists closed. "Come, brother, be seated," T'Challa insisted, his accent thick. "At this table, we are all warriors."

Amelia's eyes were wide, and she was positively giddy as she took in everyone seated at the table again. She had always wanted to go to Wakanda one day, she didn't know much about them but they had a king who doubled as a superhero, so the place had to be cool. She wondered if they had an entire army of Black Panthers back there. She wouldn't have been surprised, although again, she knew very little about the country beyond some random facts about King T'Challa and its rough location in the world. "So are you lot all, like, friends?" Amelia blurted. "Like I can just imagine that you all go out to a pub for drinks or something, and Spider-Man is probably swinging around the place, maybe Winter and Cap are arm wrestling while talking about whatever old war stories white people like to dish about, oh and Falcon? Huge fan. Like the biggest fan. Could I get your autograph? And also, I'd love to challenge you to a race. Name the time and place - and I guess type of race - and I'll be there. My name's Amelia Baptiste by the way, I'm the ace of the group - well ace as in pilot, not ace as in asexual, although I am that too, I just don't get the entire appeal of sucking someone's dick--"

Amelia was cut off, thankfully, before she could continue. "Watch your language, young lady," Captain America scolded.

"It's nice to meet you, Amelia," Falcon said, offering her a hand. "I'll race you any time, provided you can keep up."

Amelia looked like she was swooning as she shook Falcon's hand. "I'm never going to wash this hand again," she whispered to herself. It wasn't sexual or romantic or anything like that - she had just gotten to shake hands with her favorite Avenger and they had a race confirmed. It was going to be even better than podracing.

Raynor then came into the kitchen/dining area with Sparky, raising an eyebrow at the somewhat comical sight in front of them. He instantly started more or less staring at Spider-Man, since the web slinger wasn't even removing his mask to eat. It looked incredibly dumb to him. He understood that some people wanted to protect their secret identity, but everyone here had been cleared of being a --

His thoughts stopped right in their tracks, seeing Director Fury with Goose. Goose clearly wasn't freaking out, so Raynor relaxed slightly, figuring odds were low that he was a skrull. Goose hadn't been wrong yet. He was more or less their only foolproof method of skrull detection. His eyes then narrowed. "So Fury - how long did you know about the skrulls?" Raynor asked bluntly, as some of the puzzle pieces started to click for him.

"That's need to know," Fury said coldly.

Bonnie then reentered the room with Niah's meds, feeling a bit awkward with all of the tension. She more or less tiptoed on over to Niah, pouring out a few pills and handing them over to her. They wouldn't make Niah too loopy, maybe a little bit drowsy if anything, and they'd take the edge off of the pain. Her eyes kept flickering back and forth between her patient and between the ex-director.

"I'd say we're need to know at this point, Nick," Hawkeye argued.

Fury sighed slightly. "The Illuminati made first contact with the skrulls. It wasn't too long afterwards that I found the first scout. I let that twitter loving son of a bitch fire me, so that way I could go into deep cover and bring you all together - a group of heroes who can save the world. Oliver, would you go over the rest of the details? I need to drink some coffee."

Cassandra looked at Bonnie for a moment sighed slightly and nodded towards her friend, she wasnt sure what Fury had her working on he wasnt even director anymore at all. "Alright then we can talk about it later and maybe I can help you to." Cassandra said as she went and sat down next to Matt and reached for a bowl of cereal and turned to look at Oliver for a moment. He was the one who knew the most of what the skrulls were up to right now as she listened to Fury as he told them some more.

"If you know what the skrulls next move is can you debrief us Oliver?" Cass asked, she was the one usually used to giving briefings to the team so it felt nice for once that she wasnt the one doing it. She took a moment and looked over at Matt and reached to grab his hand for a moment under the table so that no one else would see.




Evelyn Holder

Evelyn was quiet for the most part as she sat at the table and leaned back against the chair looking at everyone else in the room, they all had been cleared of being a skrull which was a good thing then. As she reached for her bowl of cereal and started to eat some of it while listening to everyone speaking and they could hopefully be able to make a gameplan for the skrull threat.

She eyed Oliver who seemed to be the one with the most knowledge of the whole situation. If they knew where they would strike next then they would be able to take the situation on much easier, as Evelyn ran a hand through her hair. She thought for a moment wondering if anyone else on the X-Factor team was also a skrull.




Maria Novikova

Maria looked at She-Hulk for a moment wondering what she actually meant by that and shook her head slightly as she turned her attention over towards the skrulls. She got into a fighting stance again as she went towards two more skrulls and managed to land several good heavy punches on them, knocking the skrulls out easily. As she watched everyone else fighting, she didnt like the idea that Black Widow was using lethal force on them though the others took out some more skrulls.

She turned her attention towards the next skrull as she was going in for a punch, the alien managed to grab her by the arm, and flipped her over onto her back with a loud thud. Maria groaned slightly as she rolled back onto her feet again and went to kick the skrull between the legs. Only for her to miss, she went in for the same spot again kicking the skrull in the nuts, hearing the alien making a slight sound before he collapsed onto the ground.

Kwassi Asokho





Location: Batron Homestead
Skills: Photographic Memory : 16



No smile Kwassi had ever given before was as wide or bright as the one he had now. To see his king was safe and whole, and to have him invite him to the table alongside the other heros meant the world to him. "Ofcourse my king" Kwassi made his way towards the table, taking a seat near T'challa, his smile still stuck on his face as he ate and watched the others interact. Amelia began to speak up and was practically giving him second hand embarrassment. He was more than glad when Captain America cut her off and ended the rambling. Kwassi buried his face down to try and avoid the awkwardness building in the room only to have it replaced by strong tension caused from Fury, Hawkeye, and Raynor. He hadn't expected to hear as much as he did, and expected even less that Oliver would have the answers to explain.

With the new information it felt as if all eyes were on Oli. Kwassis included, as he looked upon him waiting to hear what it is that the Skrulls were planning. How much did he know and why hadn't anyone else been informed of this yet? Then again had any of them been skrulls like Flynn was then perhap it was best to keep things low until a select gathering such as this had occurred. It was only a shame that it had to happen under such circumstances and with so many heros already replaced. He looked at all those gathered here, and wondered why they so far had been spared. Were they the hardest to reach? Was it because they were underestimated? Or was it simply luck? Whatever it was, hopefully Oliver could shed some light onto the situation and allow them to find a plan to move forward

Niah took the pills Bonnie gave her with a deep swig of water. It would take a bit but once the pain went down she'd feel better and be able to think more clearly. The day before she had been too loopy to really think everything through. It felt like pieces were missing. Like a whole lot of travel time from London to New Jersey.

She filled a bowl with cereal and milk and started mulling over everything. Anything she could think of since Christmas eve. She wished Novi or her sister were there suddenly. That one of them could fit a missing piece of the puzzle. Whatever it was - Her brain paused. Goose. The alien cat. The alien cat with a long life knew about the postcard that Niah had written. The very precise wording Fury just used.

She glanced to Raynor. Was Fury telling the truth? Raynor didn't seem suddenly more suspicious of Fury. Didn't seem like he was hearing a lie. Fury told the truth, but he had been super careful about his words. Niah wasn't entirely certain what it meant, but she wasn't going to forget it.

Matt sipped his coffee and listened. He was interested in what Fury said that he had allowed himself to be fired so he could get the group that was sitting here together. He knew that Fury had formed the Secret Warriors group. But Phase Three itself had been a Hydra project. It was odd that they had chosen the people they had. And all that was left of the original group on the team was Niah, Sparky, Cass, and Maria if she was still alive. It seemed...extreme.

He turned to face Oliver as he was asked to give the debrief. Oliver had been with SHIELD long enough to have worked for Fury. Only Kwassi was a new recruit for SHIELD. Fury knew Dr. Larson, clearly, there was history there. Older than anyone had been aware. He narrowed his eyes. Fury's words had been carefully chosen so he didn't lie. How long had he known about the Skrull threat?

Oliver Sullivan

Oliver inhaled and parsed Fury's words for a moment. Technically, technically, what Fury said wasn't incompatible with him being a skrull, but he was sure other people must have caught that as well. Not wanting to waste time though, Oli decided he would address that after giving the debrief. A part of Oli had been preparing for this since the day he learned about the threat; when he would get to share with the team what he had learned, and how they should move forward. So, without further ado, he launched into explaining the background of the threat.

"Right so, like Fury said, the Illuminati seemed to have made first contact, and were what brought the Skrull's here in the first place. If I had to guess, Stark was most likely the initial doppelganger, based on the fact that he led the Illuminati out of the trap they were caught in." He explained, before drawing breath and continuing, "More recently, Dr. Larson informed me that the Skrull's next move, which would be checkmate, is to replace world leaders at the UN summit in Geneva next week. The problem is, we can't act just yet, if we beat the green bastards too easily, the Kree are gonna get spooked and might try to remove us from the board, and if we try to call them for help, they'll probably take us over. So we're stuck with having to barely beat them back, meaning we need to make our stand in Geneva, the day of. Any questions?"

Sparky just stuck for the most part with Raynor, not too sure what she could say or add to the conversations that were seemingly happening around the table near her. This situation was definitely an interesting one, that was for sure, but now that Fury was here, maybe they could get some straight answers as to what the hell was going on. Aside from the obvious thing being that there was an alien invasion and no one seemingly seemed to have a plan for what to do. Yeah, a plan would be a good thing, that was for certain, but she wasn't sure if anyone would be able to come up with one.

Alex was just leaning up against the wall, finding the scene in front of him with all of the superheroes around the table more then a little bit amusing. The conversations around the table were amusing to say the least, and the one girl Amelia seemed to be fangirling a bit over some of the others. That was certainly amusing, at least to add on to the other bits of amusement he was getting from watching the group. Now he was just waiting for someone to really give a full explanation of things, and seemed like Fury was sending that sort of thing over towards Oliver.

Listening, Sparky just paid attention to the words that Oliver was saying, since he seemed to have a fair bit of knowledge on the entire situation. Of course it would have been nice to know this earlier and not just immediately right now, but she couldn't judge him on that one. Maybe he thought he couldn't trust anyone? Of course that also just bugged her even more, but she didn't voice her concerns out loud. "World leaders at the summit and we can't strike until the day of and can't beat them back too badly otherwise other aliens are going to be bugging us, great, good to know."

This was getting interesting, at least it seemed that way in his mind, considering that apparently some people knew about the whole Skrull thing a while ago, and now they were deciding to share that information. Maybe this could have been avoided if a few people had maybe decided to share that information with everyone else. Though the UN summit was something to be concerned about, given that just about everyone somewhat important in the world seemingly was going to be there, not to mention probably the Skrull who had switched places with him too. Alex was staying quiet though for the most part, just listening and not giving any sort of suggestions on what to do for the moment.

They were almost done with the Skrulls that were attacking them, that was a good thing at least. Then they could move on, and hopefully Stark wasn't going to die from his arc reactor going kaput. Anyway, now was the time to deal with the rest of the Skrulls as the Human Torch decided to get himself knocked out like an idiot. It didn't matter though, there were only 7 skrulls left, and Maria managed to knock out 3 more of them. Of course not without some difficulty that made him partially want to laugh a bit at her given the fact that she got knocked down by the Skrull.

He quickly went towards the 4 remaining aliens, and started whirling around, still sticking with the nonlethal method so to not piss off the princess or anything like that. It didn't take him much to take out three of the skrulls, before he turned his attention towards the last one and charged right at him. He managed to knock the last one down and out, leaving just the rest of them conscious. "Okay, so they are all knocked out now... Now what? Anyone have any bright ideas on how to fly this ship? Or even what direction to fly this thing in? Since we aren't even positive where we are, so again, what now?"

Skrull Prison Ship - Orbiting Saturn

The last of the skrulls on the Bridge had been defeated - although there were doubtless more on the ship. The Human Torch and Iron Man were both unconscious. The Wasp was outside, back in the main area, babysitting the upset Princess Anelle. The Invisible Woman had found a spot to sit and was taking some deep breaths, her pregnancy wasn't feeling all that great at the moment, although she wasn't due to get into labor just yet. It wasn't anything to worry over.

"Richards, what's the status on Stark?" Black Widow asked.

"And then, to repeat Agent Flynn's question - where the hell are we?" Hill then asked. She knew that Mister Fantastic was one of the brightest minds in the world, if anyone present (and conscious) could figure out where they were and how to fly a spaceship, it was him. Although from what she remembered reading in the files, Captain Marvel wasn't a stranger to aliens either.

"Tony's fine, he'll live," the Invisible Woman answered, as her husband was engrossed in thought, looking at the machines and the displays and whatnot.

"We're orbiting Saturn, placing us approximately 1.2 billion kilometers from Earth. At the speed the Cassini probe travels at, this would place our return to Earth as occurring in eight years. We can then postulate that the skrulls either can greatly exceed this speed or that we were placed in stasis during transit," Richards explained. "I find the latter to be unlikely, given that I have already managed to significantly outpace the probe's speed, and that a species capable of warfare in space would likely not place their prison station eight years from the military engagement. Ergo, if I can learn this alien system of travel, I estimate that we should return to Earth in less than one year. I would further guess this travel time is less than one month, but my knowledge of military strategy is lacking for suitable analysis."

"These ships travel faster than the speed of light," Captain Marvel answered. She walked up to one of the displays, before punching in a series of coordinates. "I'm a spacer, this is kind of my thing," she said with a smirk, before the stars around them seemed to blur into lines as they jumped into hyperspace! "We'll return to Earth in four days."

Clint Barton's Homestead - Missouri: 8:40 A.M.


Bonnie couldn't help but feel a little bad having lied to Cass - but she didn't regret her decision. She wasn't ready to talk about it with someone else just yet. She still didn't understand it herself and she needed the time to process it on her own. Even though it had happened back in February, she hadn't had much downtime to really look into it - all of her time was spent at S.H.I.E.L.D. working to protect the world, particularly from M-Pox.

"Please, call me T'Challa - there is no need to be so formal," Black Panther insisted. He didn't mind his title being used when he was acting as the king of Wakanda, but here he was acting as the Black Panther for the sake of the world at large. He frowned slightly as Oliver debriefed them all on the situation. He was familiar with the upcoming UN summit. While Wakanda was not part of the United Nations, preferring to remain isolated and closed off, he kept himself appraised of worldly affairs.

"An attack at the UN Summit will cause a global incident whose ramifications we cannot predict," T'Challa commented sagely. "How do you propose we make our stand?"

"There'll be security all over the place - CIA, KGB, MI6, you name it," Agent 13 then chimed in. "It'll be impossible to send a large group in, even more impossible to have the Avengers show up. You're all too recognizable. Rogers can't walk down the street without getting recognized, and Spider-Man is a national treasure."

"I know it won't be easy, but we need to get this done - it isn't just our country at stake, the entire world is looking at us," Captain America argued. "If we send in a smaller team, they could flush out the skrulls, and drive them towards us away from the civilians."

Bonnie tapped her fingers on the table slightly, as the plan was beginning to click into place in her mind. They had another resource present they hadn't talked about - a world leader was seated at their table. Wakanda wasn't part of the United Nations, but the USA was. "We could use the President and disguise ourselves as Secret Service," she suggested. "Captain America will go to the White House to meet with the skrull president, we come in as Secret Service, we quietly take out the Secret Service in the oval office and we seamlessly replace them. Meanwhile, someone else wipes the security footage so we were never there. The President and us then travel to Geneva for the convention."

"I can handle the security footage," Fury volunteered. "Take Goose with you. He can sniff out skrulls. And no one suspects a cat."

Raynor's eyes were narrowed. He wasn't a huge fan of this plan, namely since Sparky was very pregnant and the White House was going to be filled with angry people with guns. He'd much rather leave her here on Barton's secret farm until everything was over, but he wasn't even going to bother trying to argue the point with her. He knew that she would just zap him and do it anyways, and he didn't want to admit it, but he still didn't feel completely 100% just yet. "Great, a spy mission, at least we won't have you trying to kill us, huh Barnes?" Raynor asked.

Bucky just stared at him.

"You realize how creepy it is when you do that, right?" Sam pointed out.

"It's just his vibe," Spider-Man commented with a shrug. "He just be like that."

Amelia was very excited about all of this. Sure, she knew it would have been logical to be a bit nervous or apprehensive, but it wasn't every day they got to secretly sneak the President back into the White House and get rid of an imposter with Captain America and the Falcon! She wasn't always the best at stealth, mainly because she liked to scream and cheer and everything, but she figured she could manage it. She'd figure it out, right? She was even practicing right now, staying silent and vibrating with the urge to blab out a million questions and then some.

"My old team can handle the job," Hawkeye said, more or less reassuring the Avengers that the agents were capable. "...You guys can go five minutes without screaming at each other still, right?" he then followed up.
