Oliver watched them talk as the director and everyone was caught up to speed, talking about him and what to do, he cleared his throat and said, "The way I see it, and forgive me if this is breaking the chain here, but I'm feeling pretty involved. What we do next is dependent on one thing, and one thing alone." He looked over at Dr. Strange and said, "Doctor, or anybody here, is there any way to evacuate the city? Because if not, we need to move." He crossed his arms, visibly uncomfortable with the line of thought he was going down, "That monster, he razed Cardiff, my home is in flames, and I won't let another city burn for me. As long as I stay here, hundred of thousands are at risk." His voice was clearly emotional, but it was how he felt. He wouldn't let this happen, he couldn't.

Looking down at his phone, he wanted to see if the base could withstand a hit like what was happening on the other side of the world, but it seemed iffy. While he was there, he checked in on his home, to see it was still burning, and Captain Britain injured. Biting his lip, he looked around, "Every second I stay here, more will die. Now if we can fight this off, I'm all for it, but I just.... I don't want people to die because of me." He looked back at them all,"If we can't do that, we can't let Thanos take the fight here. We just can't." He voice broke a bit at the end.

He looked over to Tempest, and stepped towards her. Of them all, he felt closest to her. He wanted to say something, but now didn't feel like the time, and even then, he didn't know what he could say. Meeting her eyes for a moment, he forced himself to smile. He wanted this all to be alright, but he didn't know that it would be. All he could do, was act as if they could make it through this. "Thank you." That was all he managed to say for a moment. She had grabbed his hand, spoken to him and brought him out of his state. Goose may have dragged him physically, but before she had spoken to him, he felt like he was drowning; her words pulled him up. "I need to do what I can to make it through this for now, and... I just want you to understand how much you've helped with that." He quietly said to her. He'd talk more later, but if there wasn't a later, he had to tell her that.

Interrogation Cell 72-A...

Thane di Angelo was booked, his cell guarded by two armed agents. The helmet Matt had placed on him had been removed and no atmospheric precautions were taken in the holding cell. Thane remained in his prison uniform with magical bonds. In addition, the SHIELD agents added handcuffs and chains locked into the interrogation table. The interrogation room was rather empty otherwise, with dark blue walls and a one way glass wall facing Thane, the sort common in police stations. The door to the holding cell was adjacent to Thane.

Interrogation Cell 72-B...

This holding cell was available for Dalisy. Its set up was identical to the one used for Thane, with the exception that no guards had been posted outside yet (as no one had been placed there). Matt or Niah would be able to request the guards looking after Thane to get some to come stand outside of Dalisy's cell.

Novikova let out a sigh of relief, as Maria replaced her glasses. She felt guilty, needing them when her wife needed them as well. She missed being able to look at people without the endless rush of images. She couldn't even be intimate with Maria without the glasses. "I feel wonderful," she told Maria dryly. She always had a bit of a straight faced, dry sort of humor - dark, too. The new guy, Oliver, was making some fair points - they needed some sort of way of evacuating the city or moving elsewhere. "There's a million people in San Fransisco, evacuating them all would be impossible - especially the crazies who will stay behind to try to get pictures of aliens," Novikova pointed out to Oliver bluntly.

"Novikova - you were fired," Hill told her bluntly. "You shouldn't be here."

"I'm here as an Avenger actually," Novikova told Hill. She stood up on her two feet, staring down the newly appointed S.H.I.E.L.D. director. "And unless you want your relationship with the Avengers to go down the drain like what happened with the X-Men, you'll let me stay. I'm not letting my wife go up against the Black Order without real backup. Sorry, new guy, I'm sure you're talented and all but you're fresh meat." She had turned her head to look at Oliver with that last comment.

".... Fine. I'll arrange for Thane di Angelo to be sent to Cardiff. I need to go inform the council what's going on - I expect updates, Agent Reed," Hill said. "Don't make that mistake."

Bonnie Chase

Location: the Hangar
Skills: Perception, Intuition, Blessing of Athena

Bonnie mentally filed that fact about Niah away - Dalisy seemed to be telling the truth and it seemed too specific of a thing for a skrull to know. However, Sparky hadn't noticed that Raynor had been replaced by a skrull. No one had noticed that Roman had been a skrull at first either. They couldn't be too cautious in this situation. They also still had the problem of the Black Order, the Terrigen Mists, Oliver, Thane, and the Inhuman Royals. Bonnie hadn't had a chance to process the vision she had had earlier when Corvus Glaive tried to kill her. "I have a plan," Bonnie announced.

Flynn seemed to have been spot on when it came to Hill and Tinley. From what she could tell, Cass was in charge - although Bonnie had no idea if that was temporary or permanent. "Thanos wants his son dead. We could get a Life Model Decoy, specify it to look like Oliver, and fake Oliver's death. His Black Order also doesn't care about casualties, so we need to go somewhere pretty much deserted, somewhere far away from cities and human life... like the ruins of Attilan on the moon. Oliver can send a message to Thanos - maybe have it play in Cardiff or see if he or Tempest can get it to transmit to Thanos' ship - inviting Thanos to come face him on the moon. We go to the moon, we fight the Black Order, and Oliver switches places with his LMD at superspeed. As long as the LMD dies in an explosion or something, so the body can't be recovered, Thanos should buy that his son has been killed and leave."

There were a lot of assumptions in her plan. It also was asking everyone there to risk their lives that way Oliver wouldn't have to go alone. They couldn't let the LMD just die any sort of death, as stabbing the LMD would reveal that it was a robotic double. It needed to be convincing and real - the fate of the Earth depended on it.

Strange wasn't phased by Sparky's small temper tantrum. She had been going through a lot that day, so he let it slide. "It's a magical artifact - and you, my dear, are no sorceress," he told Sparky frankly. "The plan you proposed Dr. Chase is feasible. My magical wards will prevent Thanos and the Black Order from finding Oliver here... and as a guardian of this world and dimension, I strongly suggest moving the son of Thanos off world until the threat is neutralized. The moon is an apt location."

As Niah pushed Dalisy into the open cell, 72-B, Matt spoke with the guards informing them of Dalisy's potential threat level. As far as Niah could tell, Dalisy was still paralyzed. She made a mental note to not get on the wrong end of his power.

"So, what happened to you?" Niah asked. Matt stepped into the room. Dalisy's focus landed on him. Niah sighed. "I don't know if she'll talk to me with you here."

"You shouldn't be alone with her. She can teleport or something, and Strange-" Niah cut Matt off.

"I know what Strange said, and I trust him. He has done more for this world than any of us will ever understand. I also think my sister might have something she wants to say to just me since we haven't seen each other since I was fifteen." Matt frowned, shrugged and stepped outside, but kept a watch from the other side of the mirror.

Matt did look over at Thane and sighed, realizing they had never done anything to protect the man from Terriginesis. "Did you see him cocoon?" Matt asked the guard. He really hoped that since this wasn't the correct Thane, they didn't have to worry about the guy who had been in prison for starting fires by randomly getting powers. At least Strange had put the magical bonds on him, so Matt doubted it would matter. He shook his head, they had messed up big time.

Now that they were alone, Dalisy spoke. "I remember dying. Then I was alive again but in a different world. I have these memories of eight years of training and..." She trailed off. Niah pursed her lips, picking up on the unsaid from her sister. They had been best friends. "Then I was in some other place, and mutants were in charge. I tried calling you. I had your number, and it rang or went to voicemail over and over." This time, Niah winced.

"Sorry, that is my fault. I had to turn over my phone for some people to trust me, and I didn't know when I did turn it over that I wouldn't have a chance to talk to you. I wanted to, but things were just so much of a mess." Niah sighed. "Then what happened?"

"When that ended, I was back in the Dalisy compound. I had to find you. I had to make sure you were okay. I came here, and there was all of this happening, and I had to get you out."

"I'm not a prisoner here. I work here. I want to be here. You hurt people I care about today. You could have killed them." Niah shook her head. "I told you I can't protect you from the consequences of this. I am happy to see you, and maybe I can get a disposition for mom and dad to visit before you're transferred to the Raft. I'm sorry, sister. This is my fault. I shouldn't have meddled, but I saw an opportunity, and I took it." Niah didn't go into details.

When a guard did show up, Matt let him take his place, and he went back to the Hanger to find out the plan.

Cassandra Reed

Cassandra watched as Novikova got up to her feet, and essentially chewed out Hill she could understand wanting to make sure that Maria was alright and safe, she would have done the same as well. "I'll update you on the plan and when we leave." Cass said as she watched Hill starting to walk off to talk to the council. She closed her eyes letting out a slight sigh it was going to take sometime to adjust reporting directly to Director Hill. She listened to Oliver as he spoke and she understood they needed to evacuate the city as quickly as possible, she may have been born in London, but Cardiff was fairly close to home as well. "I promise you Oliver i'll make sure that the city is evacuated and no one else is going to get hurt." She told him, watching as Tempest showed them what was happening to Cardiff. When Bonnie came up with a good plan create an LMD version of Oliver, fight the Black Order, and blow it up to make the death look realistic.

The only problem though was bringing the fight up to the Moon again, and having to deal with Medusa again, but it was the best idea they had at the moment. "Sounds like a good plan to me, I think it'll work." Cass said looking over at Novi for a moment, wondering if she'd be willing to bring in some of the West Coast Avengers in to help. "Novi I know you aren't with SHIELD anymore and I cant order you or anything. But if you are willing to contact the Avengers, see if you can get some of them to help evacuate the city and if some are willing to come to Atilian with us." Cassandra said then looked over at Strange. "If there is a way to contact Medusa, could you send them a message let them know what our plan is. We are still going through with this whether she likes it or not however." She asked, as much as Cass really hated Medusa for unleashing the Terrigen bomb into Earth's atmosphere and causing the M-Pox pandemic that she and Sparky have been dealing with.

"Tempest and Oliver, I want you two to send the message out to Thanos and make sure the signal is spoofed. So that it looks like it is being sent from Cardiff or somewhere near it. I'd rather them not track it directly here, and help Bonnie with the LMD also Oliver get a stealth suit for yourself just to be on the safe side." Cass said and looked over at the others. "Lets get geared up and ready to go once the LMD is set." Cassandra said looking over at Bonnie and gave her friend a nod, and looked over at Sparky knowing that her condition wasn't good at all but she was still up and fighting. "I know you aren't feeling well and hurting, but if you are up and about that's good enough for me."

Maria turned her head slightly to where she heard Hill's voice, she risked it but opened up her eyes slightly when there wasn't a flood of dimensional images coming from her she simply glared at Hill, no one talked to her wife like that. Sure her wife was fired from SHIELD but Novi was there for her, and her alone and wanted to help fight Thanos and The Black Order. She was going to say something, but Novi beat her to it, and gave her a quick hug and smiled at her. She watched as Director Hill turned and left to go and talk to the Council for who knows what probably to update on the situation or something. "So, do you think i'd make a good Avenger?" Maria asked so that only her wife could hear, it was something she had been considering. And Maria wanted to be closer to her and she missed being close to Novi as well.

She was glad that her power absorption had ended that way she could see Novi again, their powers sucked they couldn't really be intimate, she was afraid of hurting her. Maria listened to Bonnie as she suggested a plan, after seeing some of the images that Tempest had showed them what was happening to Cardiff right now. "A few well shorts of an exploding arrow could do the trick to blow up an LMD Oliver." Maria said, she did want to punch Oliver still a little bit for recklessly opening the hatch of their Quinjet back on the moon, but she would be satisfied with blowing up an LMD Oliver instead.

Tinley's leg was still not 100% but she wasn't going to lay around and not do anything while everyone went about with their plans. Bonnie's suggestion was a good one. It would take cunning and finesse but they could do it. She wanted to point out to Oliver and everyone that there was no guarantee people wouldn't get hurt. They would do their best, ensure the safety of everyone, but more than likely there would be casualties. That was something she had learned quickly in SHIELD. Cass was smart, she would be up for it.

She was, if she was being honest, a bit miffed that she wasn't delegated a task, even in her state. "What would you have me do Agent Reed?" She wasn't about to let some injury put her off. She could still help. Tinley felt a surge of pride as Novi dug into Hill. Her hands were tied at Novi being fired and it seemed the girl was still pissed and rightly so. But she was an Avenger apparently and they could use the help.

Tempest could understand Oliver's desire to want to help as many people as he could. She could only imagine the guilt he felt at being the son of Thanos and the destruction Thanos left in his wake. It wasn't Oliver's fault, but he would surely feel the after-effects. She was prepared to do as Cass asked when Oliver spoke up and addressed her. She stared deep into his eyes as he spoke, thanking her. She hadn't expected it, but it gave her the push she needed. "I'm with you Oliver. To the end."

She took out her computer and began to work, allowing Oliver to get involved when he was able. She began to hack into the system to compile a message for Thanos per Cassandra's orders. "Easy enough to do with Oliver's help. We can get it safely off whenever you are ready," she told Oliver. She wanted him involved. This was his life and his father they were dealing with, he should be the one to send it off. The plan was crazy, but if they succeeded this trouble would be over and done with.

"Look, I know what I'm doing whether you think I do or not okay?" Sparky said, calming down slightly as she looked over at Doctor Strange. She for the first time in what felt like forever at this point was starting to feel incredibly better, maybe it was from her finding the dagger? Who knew, she certainly didn't, since she didn't even understand how the disease even worked out. Right now Sparky really just wanted to hit something, or someone, and if Strange didn't shut up about her having the dagger it would make him seem like a viable target.

Glancing over towards the others as they spoke about the plan and what they were going to do, and she nodded her head again at Cass as she spoke about her coming along. "I'm coming along whether you wanted me to or not, I want to hit something, so directing that desire to beat someone up towards a good cause sounds like a fantastic idea to me, so what are we waiting for?" she said instantly, but she was really wanting to go mess with the LMD. That sort of tech was incredible in her mind, and the fact that she only had been told if she was up to it she could still tag along did not make her feel any better. It started making her question her own qualifications on the team, sure, she was sick, but that hadn't stopped Cass from doing anything, and now she was more or less being pushed to the side almost regarding it. Robotics were her thing, so why wasn't she asked to go deal with it? At the moment she was more or less hiding what was going through her head, but it was getting to be a little bit difficult.

Flynn was just listening to the ideas that were more or less bouncing around the group about what they could do with the entire situation, especially considering the fact that Oliver had apparently major daddy issues and had a guy who was probably the worst person who could be a father, for a father. This coming from the guy who had a mutant terrorist for a father, which was saying something. Bonnie's idea was sound, using an android of some sort to stand in for Oliver and make Thanos believe that he had won and had managed to kill off his son. That would keep Oliver not dead and maybe get Thanos to go away!

"Sounds like a plan to me, and blowing something up to leave no trace won't be that hard, a few explosive arrows, maybe the robot gets caught in a fireball or something, who knows. Considering what all we saw from Thanos and his group, it shouldn't be that hard to get the thing to blow up without a trace. Hard part is going to get Thanos to believe it... It's a small gamble, but hey, not like we haven't done crazy things before," Flynn spoke up, giving Bonnie a slight smile as Cass started directing people to do things, and the only order really given towards him was the whole gear up thing. He just shrugged, saying nothing else really to what was going on.

Nodding at Cass, he got what he had to do, and with Tempest's help, he knew he'd be able to do it. Her words cut deep to him, the notion of being with him to the end was melancholic. She cared about him, and knowing that gave him the kind of strength he needed to move forward. Taking his phone, he exhaled, and went to work. He'd reached out to the ship twice now, so he was confident he could get back to send a message. Queuing up a message to be sent from a SHIELD relay node in Cardiff, it read
"NOT ANOTHER HUMAN DIES. MEET AT ATTILAN, WE'LL END THIS THERE."
Putting his phone back in his pocket, he exhaled. That hopefully put an end to his assault. "It's ready to fire when you give the word." He said, looking at Cass resolutely.

"The atmosphere on the Moon is permeated with Terrigen Mist, a stealth suit will put me at risk with that." He pointed out. He wasn't opposed to it, but if he cocooned again, his death might as well be assured. The plan outside of that, seemed doable, if luck was on their side, even though it quite obviously wasn't. Facing down the mad titan scared him, but right about now, he wanted to fuck him up, and the best way to make sure he could do that would be surviving to tomorrow. A time would come for revenge, but now was the time to survive, and it would take everyone trying their hardest to have a chance at that.

"Yeah, easy, we have a groupchat - Iron Man likes to send pictures of his afternoon bagels," Novikova deadpanned. Of course, she was a part of the West Coast Avengers - more or less the back up dancers to the core Avengers out in New York City. She actually preferred the West Coast group. She got to work with Dr. Pym and she didn't have to work with the Hulk - something that seemed like a recipe for a workplace disaster. Tony Stark's ego would have gotten infuriating after a while anyways. "I'll see what we can do," she then said more seriously.

She pulled out her phone and went into one of the group chats - the one just for the West Coast Avengers, not all of the Avengers regardless of the specific team. Need to evacuate San Fran. Black Order + Thanos may attack after Cardiff. Her name in the group chat was her superhero identity - Black Quartz. Novikova wasn't particularly big on calling. Ant Man (Scott Lang) sent a thumbs up emoji. Spider-Gwen sent a gif. The Wasp (Janet van Dyne) gave everyone in the chat instructions on how to evacuate the city most efficiently. The Scarlet Witch - perhaps showing her age - sent a gif as well, since she was currently under quarantine for M-Pox... the same quarantine Novikova had broken. Captain Marvel sent a quick selfie of herself in Cardiff fighting alongside the extremely injured Captain Britain - she wouldn't be able to help evacuate San Fransisco.

"Kay, the team's on it," Novikova informed Cass.

Strange was casting a complicated looking spell on a piece of paper, on which he had written down the plan. There was then a flash of smoke and the paper was gone. "Your message has been sent to Attilan," Strange told Cass. He was a bit irritated that texting hadn't been an option, even though it meant he got to show off some more with his magical skills.

Novikova smirked slightly at her wife. She put an arm around her, the protective suits they were wearing making it so they didn't need to worry too much about skin-to-skin contact. "You'd be a wonderful Avenger - though Hawkeye might not want you on the New York team. He's got a monopoly on bows and arrows."

"Actually, I'll need Sparky's help with the LMD," Bonnie told Cass. While she had gone to Sci-Tech, her specialization had always been more in terms of anatomy and biochemistry. She was decent when it came to medicine due to having lots of experience in the field, yet Bonnie never was really into robotics. Tempest and Oliver were both computer geeks, but even they likely didn't know how to program the LMD and ensure that it properly mapped the characteristics of the template. Sparky was the robotics expert of the group, having been admitted to SHIELD as a cadet due to her PhD in electrical engineering. "It'd take the rest of us hours to program the LMD - although..."

Bonnie walked up to Oliver. "I know we'll need a DNA sample," she explained. If he hadn't been in the protective suit, she would have just plucked a few hairs from his head and called it good. It then occurred to her that Sparky might need him physically present for the LMD to scan in addition to the DNA sample. DNA didn't give an individual's exact height and weight after all. "So you'll need to come with Sparky and me to the robotics lab," Bonnie concluded.

She blushed slightly, noticing that Flynn was smiling at her. It was Valentine's Day - even though everything that had happened so far was thoroughly unromantic. Maybe he had some sort of sweet gesture planned for later... It had been ages since she celebrated Valentine's Day with someone. Last year at this time, she had rented the Perks of Being a Wallflower and cried into a tub of Ben and Jerry's, mourning her late husband.

Cassandra mentally hit herself, she had forgotten that Sparky was good with anything mechanical, and nodded towards Bonnie. "You are right, Sparky your on the LMD team." She told her, and looked at Maria, Flynn and Tinley as Tinley asked what she should do biting her bottom lip for a moment. The only thing that she could think of at the moment for the three of them was to prep the Quinjet as soon as possible. "I need you, Flynn, Maria and Matt whenever he gets back to prep the Quinjet as well for another Attilan trip." She said looking at Strange and nodded towards him, whether Medusa and Crystal were willing to help was ultimately up to the two of them whenever they arrive.

She looked at Oliver when he gave his concerns on a secondary exposure to Terrigen Mists that were on the Moon which were understandable, but as far as she knew the Terrigen Mists weren't deadly to those with Inhuman DNA. Though there was a chance like Matt that Oliver could get a secondary exposure to them. Unlike her and the other members on the team who were Mutants they ran the greater risk of contracting M-Pox. "We'll put one on the jet, just in case you do need it Thanos is after you personally it could be helpful." She said and nodded towards Novi. "Thank you Novi." Cass told her, and looked at Oliver and nodded towards him. "Send it out now, I'm going to go and contact Director Hill on what our next move is now meet back up here once everyone is finished with their tasks." Cass told them as she started to head out of the Hangar to look for Director Hill.

"Yeah I wouldn't want to cramp his style or something like that." Maria said with a slight laugh feeling her wife's arm over her and returned the gesture, as she stood up next to Novi watching her sending out a text to the West Coast Avengers. She did enjoy visiting them all whenever she could with Novi. "So, when this is all said and done what do you want to do for dinner my treat? Since I did ignore all your texts earlier today." Maria asked, since it was Valentines Day after all she wanted to do something romantic for dinner.

"That's if the city isn't nuked from orbit or anything by the giant purple guy." Maria said shrugging slightly, she knew that their mission was going to be really hard and Thanos was probably going to be really hard battle. She listened to Cass as she gave orders and nodded, she didn't mind stocking up the Quinjet for another trip to Attilan she wasn't to thrilled really to see Medusa or Crystal either again. She also did want to stock up on some arrows as well, they were pretty effective against Black Dwarf when she fought against him.

Matt stepped into the Hanger as Cass gave her orders. He resisted smiling; there was something beautiful about her being authoritative. "I noticed that di Angelo didn't have any protective suit on him. The guards say they haven't seen him cocoon and considering he isn't the right Thane. I'm going to go out on a limb and say he's just human. Unless he had gone through terrigenesis before today and has reached his full potential." He said the last bit was vaguely mocking of Crystal.

"A guard is posted outside Dalisy's cell. Niah is talking with her. From the sound of it, she remembers dying in a different timeline, or she meant a different dimension, she said different world, and also the, uh, bit with Scarlet Witch." He wasn't entirely sure what to think of Dalisy. She made him nervous. "I think Niah is too trusting." That could easily be a blanket statement from what he had gathered about the woman.

Matt shrugged and then went to follow Cass's orders. He didn't know what all needed to be done to prep the Qunjet. They would need to refuel he figured, so he set about getting that taken care of.

She was glad that someone else seemed to remember just what it was that Sparky was good at, but the fact that everyone needed to be reminded about it did not make her feel much better about everything. Letting out a bit of a sigh, she nodded her head, "Yeah, sure thing, I'll get right on that," she said, though it was a bit evident by her tone of voice that she was almost a little hurt that it had taken Bonnie pointing it out for Cass to actually remember that. Of course, it was something that didn't come up all too often, since most of the time they didn't really deal with robotics.

She wasn't feeling the best, somewhat crashing from her almost sugar high sort of thing, and was back to not feeling the best as she headed to the robotics area, kind of stumbling slightly as she went. Once in the robotics lab, she started pulling out everything that they needed to set up the LMD (hopefully correctly), aside from of course measurements and everything that they would need from Oliver. "Well this'll be fun," she muttered, glad to have some sort of distraction from everything else that was going through her head with the insanity that was the day so far. She was quickly working along with the robotics, trying to work along and do as much as possible without Oliver physically being in the room.

"Well sure thing, let's see what sort of things we can find around here lying around to bring along that might be able to hit the alien guy pretty hard," he said with a shrug, not really sure why Tinley still had asked for specifics. Maybe she wasn't used to playing second fiddle and being the same rank as everyone else? Who knew the reason, he didn't very much care as he headed out of the hangar and to the armory of sorts where they kept a large quantity of weapons, just about any sort of weapon that you could think of. He instantly walked over and grabbed a machine gun of sorts that had a strap on it, having been with the military and his experiences as someone without powers, he knew how to use it, so he slung it across his back as he grabbed some extra ammunition for it, and started walking back towards the hangar. When something caught his eye and it caused him to back up and look again.

It was a rocket launcher.

"Well hello there," he said to himself, as he walked over and picked the weapon up. "...Well guess since we're going against aliens that are uber strong, so explosives would be a good thing to have..." With those words, he grabbed the launcher and some ammo for it, and with the launcher leaning up against his shoulder, he walked back to the hangar and glanced over at the others. "Welp, don't know about you, but I figure I've got some things that will probably be useful, if the rest of you want to grab some stuff from the armory be my guest," he said simply before he headed for the Quinjet that they had flown back from space, one that was still standing and hadn't blown up at all.

With a few keystrokes on his phone, the message was sent, and Oliver took a break for a moment. They were on the clock now, and it felt weird for a moment. They had all decided to fight for him, to go up to the moon, put their lives on the line, just to give him a fighting chance at survival. That was something powerful, and it meant something to him. He wouldn't forget this if he lived, not ever, resolving to make it up to all of them however he could. Nodding over at Bonnie he said, "Let's go then, not a second to spare and all." Starting over to the lab, he gave a goodbye smile at Tempest before saying, "If you don't have anything better to do, I'd love to um... have you around." He said awkwardly, before tacking on, "I mean, I'm sure you'd be able to help program the LMD and uh... stuff."

Hurrying off, he felt his face go red, what the hell was that about? It was a stupid selfish thought, he didn't even really know how he felt about Tempest for god's sake. For all he knew, he could be dead in a few hours, and he just said something like that to somebody who'd have to survive the aftermath of his death, should it happen. He felt gross and bad now, on top of the endless amount of stress, fear, anger, and thesaurus worth of negative emotions he was going through. Stepping into the lab, a part of him didn't want Tempest to follow, but another still badly did. He was a mess, and had to get things in order before the conflict commenced. Looking at Sparky, he started to take off the protective suit, so they'd be able to get a DNA sample off of him.

The Kingdom of Attilan - the Moon: February 14th, 2021 - 11:50 A.M.

Location: the Ruins of Attilan

The last twenty minutes were a blur. Sparky made a near perfect Life Model Decoy of Oliver, although the machine was unable to mimic his power of superspeed. It could communicate and approximate responses Oliver would have given with only 22% error, fairly impressive given the short time Sparky had had to prepare it. The news reports indicated that the attacks in Cardiff had ceased. Thanos and the Black Order must have accepted Oliver's challenge. Doctor Strange had used the Time Stone as promised in the laboratory, speeding up the process as he manipulated the time stream and produced the first batch of M-Pox cures. There were only five and he gave the first of these to Sparky, meaning the team would be at full strength in the final battle. Cass flew the quinjet this time and they touched down outside the ruins of Attilan's palace.

"Freddie?" Bonnie caught Flynn's attention softly. She wasn't going to pretend they weren't heading into an incredibly dangerous situation. They had barely made it out of the first fight against the Black Order. It could have easily just been beginner's luck that they were still alive. "After we get back to Earth... I'm inviting you to spend the night in my room," she said quietly, so only he could hear. She hadn't let him spend the night with her before - and by that, she meant actually sleeping, not making the beast with two backs. Sparky had had Raynor ripped away from her. Bonnie was done wasting the time she had with Flynn. They could both be dead within the hour after all.

This time around, everyone was already in protective suits and gear, so there were no unexpected terrigenesis events as they disembarked the quinjet. Bonnie still couldn't help but marvel at Attilan. It was a functioning civilization - or at least, it had been before the Black Order came around - on the Moon. The inhumans had figured out how to contain an atmosphere within a bubble of sorts, meaning that the air (albeit laced with terrigen) was breathable. The architecture on the fallen structures strongly implied how impressive and regal the city must have looked. Her heart sank, realizing that more than buildings had fallen. Hundreds of thousands of people were dead here.

"If this doesn't work, I'm blaming you," Novikova told Oliver bluntly. She didn't like him. He had taken her job. Novikova knew logically that she had been fired and Oliver had been assigned to fill the vacancy, but her emotions liked the version where Oliver was a villain better. The narrative suited him being the son of Thanos and the idiot who had nearly given her wife M-Pox after all. If the Black Order hurt Maria at all, Novikova would be the first one to throw Oliver over to the enemy. She wouldn't even blink.

"If the plan fails, the Black Order will kill Oliver. They will then have no reason to threaten Earth any further," Doctor Strange pointed out a bit coldly. The necklace he wore around his neck with the green stone had seemingly vanished. "I cannot risk having the Eye out with Thanos so near... I've sent it to another dimension for safekeeping."

"Lovely. And here they come," Novikova said. A massive ship entered the upper atmosphere. Its immense shadow blotted out the sun, sending all of Attilan into darkness. The protective suits started to glow like flashlights though, so the team wasn't blind at least. A tractor beam of sorts appeared from the ship and then suddenly, four women materialized a good thirty feet away from them. One of them was Proxima Midnight. The three others were new - one with pale white skin and hair, one with green skin and red hair, one with blue skin, a bionic arm, and a bionic eye.

Bonnie paled slightly, relieved and scared that Thanos wasn't among them. She had been so certain that he would come to face Oliver. Something clicked in her head though. Thanos hadn't come earlier either. And in the news, Cardiff was under attack from a ship - not from the Mad Titan himself. Thanos was intentionally avoiding the conflict. He wanted Oliver gone desperately because of the prophecy... he was afraid. "Oliver, Thanos is afraid of you. He won't come to face you, he won't risk it," Bonnie concluded. "He's terrified that if you come anywhere near him, he'll die."

"Gee, thanks, Agent Obvious," Novikova rolled her eyes.

"We're here for Thane - and my spear," Proxima Midnight told the agents.

"Personally, I'd rather a fight - I'm bored," the blue one complained.

The green girl rolled her eyes, filing her nails on her sword. Its blade glinted menacingly. "They're terrans, Nebula. They don't know how to do much other than drink and fight."

"She's right," the white haired one added.

Proxima Midnight held up her hands. "You've convinced me. Let's kill them all and then obliterate their pathetic planet. In the name of death! In the name of sorrow! In the name of chaos and war! In the name of Thanos! HUNT AND KILL!" She had a new lance in her hands, electricity moving up and down the weapon like a snake.

Proxima Midnight charged forward, targeting Matt. Her aim was perfect and true, only suddenly the rock beneath her feet jutted upwards and sent Proxima flying up into the air. She landed on her feet gracefully a good ten feet behind Matt. Novikova smirked. "Sorry, I didn't realize we were doing solo fights."

The white haired warrior - Black Swan - went after Tinley. She levitated up into the air (or artificial atmosphere, really), her white hair fluttering around her. Her black eyes turned red and emitted beams of plasma, not unlike the X-Men Cyclops. These beams slammed into Tinley. They were so intense they penetrated the safety of the suit and severed Tinley's left leg clean. The evil Supergirl yawned slightly.

Nebula set her sights on Bonnie, picking her out as the least physically imposing agent. While she looked like a cyborg, Nebula still had some weapons that weren't part of her body. She had wrist mounted blasters that had managed to stun the Silver Surfer before. She fired these off at the blonde S.H.I.E.L.D. agent without remorse. Yet as the beams charged towards her, it was like the adrenaline enhanced Bonnie's reflexes. She dodged out of the way and the beams hit the lunar surface behind her, kicking up dust and rocks as Nebula accidentally created a new crater.

Gamora decided to get straight to the point. With her sword drawn, she approached Oliver - yet she didn't attack him. She waited for him to accept the challenge, to duel her to the death. "I'm your sister, Gamora," she introduced herself. "You can surrender and I'll kill you painlessly. Or you can fight to the death and I'll kill you all the same."

"Thanks." Matt said with a head nod at Novi. He appreciated her for keeping Proxima Midnight at a distance. Matt had a feeling he might be able to fight her in hand-to-hand combat, but he felt a lot more confidant behind his handgun. However, if he could touch her and release his paralyzing power. That could take the woman out of the battle, and it was now proven that he could kill someone with it as he had always feared. That would be for later he decided if she got too close for comfort.

Matt lined up a shot and took it. Blood spouted from Proxima's throat. Matt wasn't certain if that would take her down. He had seen a few of Thanos 'children' survive kill shots before. In Cardiff, it had taken multiple kill shots to take down the one. Matt took another shot, hitting her square in the left chest. It could be a heart shot, if she had one, or if it was even there. Matt took the third shot this one grazed her right arm.

Cassandra Reed

Location: The Moon - The Kingdom of Attilan
Skills: Enhanced Condition, Hand to Hand Combet

Cassandra flew the team back to Attilan again, luckily she had been able to cure herself, otherwise she probably wouldn't have been able to fly well enough and crashed somewhere. She had briefed Director Hill about their plans as well before they left as well to once they were given the go ahead to. Once they were back at the ruins of Attilan Cassandra got off of the Quinjet looking at the LMD version of Oliver inside of the Quinjet once more. Hopefully the plan would work, she looked at Strange and nodded towards him she wasn't sure what was so important about it, but it did help make the cure for M-Pox as well. She waited a little bit more as she looked around the destroyed kingdom of the inhumans.

Then Thanos' massive ship suddenly appeared overhead, the lights on her suit going on, giving her a little bit of light as four more figures were beamed down. Seeing Proxima Midnight again, and then three other women she didn't see them back in Cardiff she assumed that they were on the ship during their last encounter. Then the fighting suddenly started, as the Black Order attacked first her eyes going wide when one of them attacked Tinley with her eyebeams seeing her friend's left leg getting severed from it, Cassandra had no clue if Tempest could save her leg at all Harry had lost his hand when he very briefly touched a terrigen crystal and they weren't able to save it at all. "See what you can do on her Tempest." Cassandra said, as she watched the green woman had her eyes set on Oliver, she wasn't sure that Oliver was good when it came to fighting one on one.

Oliver was apart of her team and they needed to make sure that he was safe, Cassandra quickly ran forward as fast as she could targeting Gamora. She managed to punch the green woman in the jaw as hard as she could catching Gamora by surprise, standing in between her and Oliver. "You'll have to go through me first, before you can fight him."

Maria Novikova

Location: The Moon - The Kingdom of Attilan

Maria stood by her wife's side looking over at her and gave her a loving smile, and gently held Novi's hands until they were finally on the moon again. She took a step off of the quinjet seeing the ruins of the city as well, it would have been a really nice place she imagined if Thanos hadn't attacked it. "I have your back love." Maria whispered to Novi, no matter what happened she would watch her as well, when the massive ship flew in overhead. The suit's lights quickly turned on illuminating the area slightly as four figures were beamed down.

Then the fighting quickly started, one of them shot an eyebeam at Tinley watching her leg get cleanly cut off did remind her of her sister Kristina a bit. Proxima had targeted Matt, but her wife saved him and she smiled towards her glad that she was there with her. Matt managed to get a good couple of shots off at the alien woman.

The blue one seemed to have some kind of cybernetics on her and tried to target Bonnie. Maria drew out her bow and notched five trick arrows with EMP tips on them and fired them all off, as they managed to hit Nebula. And then the arrows set off their EMP charge seeing Nebula starting to go on the frizt and sparking made her smirk as Nebula's bionic arm dangled there. "Hey bionic Smurfette pick on someone else!" Maria called out.

Her mind still wasn't exactly staying focused for the most part, since she was still thinking of what exactly had been happening around her. She still wanted nothing more then to just race off from the group on her own to go try and find Raynor, ignoring everyone saying that they would help her, and just to do it on her own. Sparky knew that if they didn't stop Thanos, then the rest of the world was going to be doomed, but no. A small part of her wanted to be selfish, to deal with her own problems, but she knew deep down that she couldn't do that. When they reached their destination, and finally were face to face with their enemies, she thought about trying to fight Proxmia, since she still had a bit of a grudge against her for their last meeting.

However, she chose to see about dealing with the one who had managed to just chop Tinley's leg clear off. She hoped that Tinley was going to be okay, and Sparky pulled out Lyting and it started crackling with electricity, and she pointed it towards Black Swan, a bolt of lightning shooting it off but it missed. She wasn't going to be deterred by that though, as she took off into the air, electricity still crackling as she sent a strong bolt of lightning at her, this time with a resounding crack she managed to hit her dead on, though she wasn't down yet, and Sparky sent another bolt at her. This time however, Black Swan put up some sort of force field to protect herself this time. "Well that's inconvenient."

They apparently were going to go up against a group of four people, which surprised him a little bit considering the group of people they had gone up against originally. However he knew better then to under estimate them as they instantly sprung into action against them. He had to fight back the urge to make a comment towards Tinley about how she had lost a leg, but right now was not the time for that sort of thing. Instead he focused on Nebula, who had decided to try and hurt Bonnie, and that definitely pissed him off to no end. "Well this'll be fun, figured that I might as well test this out, no guarantees that this'll work though."

Those were the last words he said before he pulled out the rocket launcher and fired it off at Nebula. It didn't really do much damage to her, but it did send Nebula flying backwards with a really loud boom. "Always got to love those explosions..." he said, before setting the launcher down and bursting into flames, sending a large blast of fire at her, and the fake skin on her bionic arm got hit with the blast, and it just melted off. He sent another blast of flames at her, but this time his shot went wide. "I laugh that somehow you thought this fight would be easy or something," he said to Nebula.

Oliver Sullivan

Stepping off the Quinjet, Oliver was surprised by how quickly things started to turn to combat. He didn't know what he expected, but he thought there might be at least some conversation before the abject carnage, but alas, this was the world they found themselves in. Watching in shock as one of Tinley's legs were severed, he gasped. Shit was getting real, quickly, and it wasn't just about him anymore, they'd wipe the Earth clean if the Secret Warriors failed here. They were Monsters, each and every one of them, and as the green one had the audacity to call herself his sister, something broke in him.

Gripping the spear, he trembled with anger as a black inky net shot out of it. "My sister?" He said, his eyes blazing, "That must mean something else in your tongue, because you look a lot like scum to me." He lunged straight at her, but the spear was knocked from his hands. In a blind rage, a new kind of feeling awoke in him and, almost instinctually, he turned on the spot, and with his speed, he brought his fist towards Gamora, only for her to side step him. Still though, he continued forward, rushing past her and turning on the spot, putting distance between the two of them. At that moment, he had an idea, and he reached over to his phone, tapping a few buttons quickly, and releasing the raptors. Calling out to Strange he said, "Doctor! Open a portal back to the Headquarters, something will be joining us shortly, and they need a way here." As he did this, he kept his focus on Gamora, malice in his eyes.

"You sound like Stark," Strange observed. 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. "...You have trained genetically reconstructed dinosaurs?" Strange asked, shocked.

Trained 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 standard. 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 worst idea ever as she used her powers to bend the earth beneath Kelso's feet, yeeting the dinosaur up, up, and up into the artificial atmosphere. "Get off my wife, you Jurassic Park knock off!" 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. "PETA is going to be thrilled with us," 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. "Your plans are like Stark's too," 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 - she severed her head. "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 knew 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. "Flynn, the raptor's afraid of fire, try to ward it off!" 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.

What the hell? Raptors? How had Oliver gotten his hand on Raptors? And of course, he didn't have control of them, so they were attacking the group instead of the enemy. If Matt wasn't dealing with Proxima Midnight, he might have been horrified. He didn't even want to think about the fact that Tinley was dead now since Lazer-eyes had shot her head off. He had respected her; she was the reason he had requested to join Secret Warriors. The green-skinned woman tried to attack Cass, but she could handle herself. Cass was a verified BAMF in Matt's mind. Bonnie took down the blue-skinned woman; Bonnie was another verified BAMF. Maybe there was a chance the group could survive this.

Proxima Midnight was threatening him and asking for last words. Matt didn't have any planned, so he didn't say anything. He fired two shots. One hit her leg and took out her knee, the other went wide and missed her. This wasn't working. The woman was too determined, and now with the Raptors, they needed fewer enemies on the field.

Matt moved into hand-to-hand combat reach with her, closing the distance between them, and reached out to touch her. That was all he needed to do for his power to work, which was probably a good thing. He felt the energy leave him and enter Proxima Midnight; he sent a lot more than he would normally. Proxima Midnight dropped to the ground. She wasn't breathing, and it was apparent her heart had stopped beating as the blood from her neck wound was no longer spurting out. 'Well, she's not bleeding out anymore cause that requires a heartbeat,' Matt thought. He felt guilty for the use of his power; it was more potent than he liked. He hated doing that and killing people, but she would have done her best to kill him if he had allowed her to keep fighting. "Maybe next time don't pick a fight with a guy with the gun? Or attack and not chat? Not sure which was your fatal mistake there." Matt said to her corpse.

He noticed the spear that Oliver had had earlier in her hands and, on some instinctual level, knew he would know how to work it if he held it. Matt picked it up. His exposure to the mist on the moon their first time here had caused him to go through terrigenesis a second time. Matt didn't know the name of the power that he gained from it, but it was clear what it did. He now knew intrinsically how weapons worked. He just had to hold them. "Oh, neat." He turned to face Oliver. "Hey, maybe come up with better plans, ones that don't involve Raptors in space!"

Sparky's eyes grew wide when Black Swan took off Tinley's head with a laser, taunting them a bit about how the fighting was pointless. She was mad, and today was definitely not the day to mess with her, and she planned to take out Swan before she could hurt anyone else. Electricity continued to crackle along her arms and the dagger in her hand, and she looked right at Black Swan now. "You act like we're weak, you think we are powerless. But let me tell you right now, you have messed with THE WRONG PEOPLE!!!!" she snapped before she sent the first bolt of lightning slamming into her.

Black Swan's hair stood up on end from the first lightning bolt, but the next one she sent flying at her was blocked by another force field. Now she was beyond pissed off, as she created a rather large lightning bolt that went charging at her, this time slamming into her with enough force to knock her out completely. "How about you stop under estimating people bitch!" Sparky snapped at her, even though she knew perfectly well that Swan probably couldn't hear her. Her attention was drawn away by the sudden appearance of a bunch of raptors out of nowhere.

Flynn was prepared to throw another fireball at Nebula, when a few things randomly happened all at once. One was the fact that Bonnie managed to kill Nebula it seemed like. The other? The fact that a group of raptors straight from Jurassic Park or something came out of nowhere, the main difference being that these raptors had wings. "Okay, where the hell did these things come from? And whose bright idea was it to have the raptors show up now and attack us?" he asked as he backed away slightly from the raptors, and the one that seemed to want to attack him. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw movement, and he glanced over to see someone he hadn't expected.

It was Goose the Cat.

Goose wandered over from wherever he had been hiding, and raced straight up to the raptor by Tempest (Sasha). "Mrow!" he said to the raptor, almost like he was scolding them, before he jumped up onto the back of the raptor, "MROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!" he then called out loudly, clearly trying to get a hold of the attention of his raptor kittens. Most of them seemed to pay (at least those that could) except for Argus, who just flat out seemed to be ignoring him. "Mrow!" he said loudly, and it was clear this time that Goose was scolding the raptor. The raptor whined (very reminiscent of a teenager saying "ugh MOOOOOOOOM"), before he seemed to be paying attention.

"Okay, now I think I've seen everything."

The cat then directed the raptors to attack Gamora. Queen and Argus were taking their time going over there, but Kelso charged straight at her but his attack missed. Meanwhile with Sasha, Goose and the raptor charged right at her, where Sasha chomped down on Gamora's sword arm, and didn't seem to be wanting to let go.

"...So let me get this straight, plan that seemed to be going horribly wrong, somehow ended up being saved by the cat, who apparently knows the flying raptors and seems to be directing them and somehow salvaging this horrible plan? That works I guess," Flynn said with a shrug, as the fire around him dimmed down before sputtering out again. There were weirder things that could happen he guessed, but he never thought in a million years he'd see a cat, leading a charge of raptors towards an enemy.
