Sometimes, our heroes fail and innocents suffer for it. They managed to slow down the craft, but they couldn't stop it from hitting the ocean near the shore of Montevideo. Everyone who was on the outside of the ship would find themselves plunged underneath the water, with the massive craft preventing them from easily surfacing. They'd have to swim out away from the craft in order to get above the water. And all the meanwhile, the massive ship hitting the water created essentially an artificial tsunami... The Invisible Woman's shields held for a moment, but even she couldn't battle a force of nature. The tsunami broke through and swept over Montevideo... A city with 1.3 million people... Washed away...[hr][hr][center][h3][color=84B4E2][b]Pennsylvania Avenue: Washington D.C.: 12:20 P.M.[/b][/color][/h3][/center][hr][hr] Bonnie tilted her head slightly, wondering what to make of Kwassi's comment. Her ego told herself that it was only natural, she really was a gifted fighter - [i]for a human.[/i] She couldn't throw buildings with her mind or burst into flames like her friends. Not too long ago, that had been the norm for SHIELD agents - no one had powers. She supposed even now her viewpoint was skewed, as the Secret Warriors were only a small part of SHIELD's arsenal - and a highly classified one at that. They weren't sent on ordinary missions - only extraordinary ones. Amelia was panting, and she was barely standing straight as she gave Cass a thumbs up. [color=FFB795]"Oh, I'm bloody brilliant, thanks mate,"[/color] Amelia said, before coughing slightly. [color=FFB795]"Hey, you ever wonder what happens when a toad gets struck by lightning? Heard that question posed to one of the X-Men once - the OG ones, not the little kids in tights that they got running around now. Was such a posh look Storm had in the interview though, it was so lit, like legs for days and days."[/color] Raynor wasn't quite as loquacious as Amelia. [color=d86615]"This is why no one liked Thor at parties,"[/color] he muttered. In his world, Thor was very much dead - and had been for some time. Thor died with the rest of the most famous Asgardians during Ragnarok. And while the prophecies claimed Baldur was supposed to be resurrected and return to rule, that never happened. They had been left with a desolated planet and fled to Earth, conquering what had been Norway and turning it into their home. A chill went down Raynor's spine as he remembered the Queen of New Asgard. From Niah and Sparky's monitors, they could see that VP Ricky Goldsworth wasn't headed towards the Oval Office... but the pack of [i]children were. [/i] Amelia's eyes widened as Sparky described a strategy to her over the comms. [color=FFB795]"Uh, but I'm not the Avatar - or a fire bender, I don't think Katara or Toph could've done that!"[/color] Amelia squeaked. She was happy to see that Captain America was no longer an ice cube, but they still had a huge issue with the giant skrull. The skrull tossed Matt roughly to the side of the room, sending Matt slamming into a wall. [color=f6989d]"Keep the skrull busy, I have a plan,"[/color] Bonnie said suddenly, before sprinting towards the President's desk with no further explanation. Amelia didn't need the science-type to say anything else. She figured whatever plan Bonnie had come up with would be more than good enough. Instead, she decided to take another trick from Avatar and find a way to distract the giant skrull as much as possible. Amelia hopped up and nearly fell, but managed to catch herself on a rapidly spinning ball of air - [i]an air scooter[/i]. She started zipping around the Oval Office in random directions. [color=FFB795]"Oi, fugly, bet ya can't catch me!"[/color] Captain America sized up the situation, and threw his mighty shield, aiming for the giant's eyes. His mark was true and he hit the giant dead on, causing the skrull to scream out in pain and reach up, grabbing for his eyes. For a moment, he was more or less blinded. Raynor darted in, intent on stabbing the giant, but the giant flailed its limbs down, hitting Raynor so hard he flew out the glass windows and hit the lawn, knocked out cold. The blow would've killed an ordinary human. Bonnie finished looking through the desk. She found a few things of interest - a baseball and a pair of rubber gloves. Bonnie snapped on the gloves and held the baseball, and chucked it at the giant skrull, hitting the skrull in the back of the head. The skrull turned around. "Stupid girl," the skrull taunted. "You terrans can't win against us," he said, before throwing lightning at Bonnie. Bonnie held out her hands, as if she could catch the lightning... ... And nothing happened. She was totally uninjured. [color=f6989d]"Rubber doesn't conduct electricity,"[/color] she told the skrull, before throwing her knives. She aimed for the neck, going for the jugular. And as if Athena guided her hand, Bonnie's mark was true. The skrull pulled the knives, not realizing the danger, and blood began gushing rapidly, thick and green... until the giant fell, and the ground shook. [color=4C52FF]"... Nice work, agent,"[/color] Captain America complimented. [color=f6989d]"Thanks. My anatomy studies have new applications each and every day, it seems."[/color]
