I'm still here but I don't want to make another post just yet so others have a chance.
I will if things slow down more though.

Alexis could see the agents following her suggestions, arraying themselves by the window to give cover to the retreating pair inside. She still had no clear line of sight to Flash Bang and she didn't want to give away her position for little gain; if she could take him out in her first couple of shots then there'd be less collateral damage.
"That's good. Keep him in your sight but maintain a safe distance. It doesn't look like a few bullets are going to stop him." She said, encouraging the agents. Now she could make out Agent Nova and the 'Hero' as they pulled out. 'Robin Hood' looked injured but not too badly while Nova seemed to be in good condition still. "Let those smoke grenades go now." She commanded, watching as her order was carried out.
Soon there was a gap between the agents, Nova and her charge and Flash Bang inside the building. "Alright, pull back away from the smokescreen now." There was little wind that low to the ground so the smoke screen endured well enough. Her keen eyes spotted movement inside it, a swirling of the murkiness, and she trained the binoculars to see the same high-heat blob that was Flash Bang. Returning to her rifle she aimed and fired two shots.
In the time since the Hood's attack she had switched her ammunition to AP rounds, seeing as the explosive shots he had fired had proved ineffective. If a broad-based attack did little damage, she hoped a focused one might. There was movement within the screen and she swung her rifle, firing again before waiting to see the results.
"Anyone have eyes on the target?"

I'm going to start working on a post now.
@Inertia
Wurps, I thought it was your turn! I'll have a post up later today.

That'd be one hell of a rubbish Marvel movie if that happened though.
*Villain shows up*
*Hero does special attack*
*Villain dies*
Roll the credits!

I'm going to go ahead and assume that monsieur Flash Bang is not done quite yet.
Alexis listened to the snatches of conversation he could hear through her earpiece but it was hardly enough to go on. With an irritated grumble she rummaged in her briefcase and pulled out the binoculars in there, flicking through the available lenses before returning to her vantage point. The world through the lenses appeared to her as an array of bright red, yellows and oranges with darker blues, purples and greens. With the infra-red she could at least see what was going on inside the building.
The shift in Flash Bang was immediate, the heat signature rising significantly along with his size.
"What the-" She swore, never having seen such a rapid change in all her experience. "Nova, pull back with your hero friend. I can't give you any support from here." She returned to her rifle, aiming towards the entrance of the bank. She could just make out the others through the window but at this range she'd have to change to different ammo for an accurate shot and there was no time. So instead she fired at the window, aiming at the base of it, shattering a large pane of glass and thanking whichever architect designed the place for choosing large panes and not small, artistic windows. The 'Robin Hood' had managed to counter-attack but the new and improved Flash Bang didn't seem critically affected by it.
Heroes, Villains. They're all bloody monsters. Give me a flesh and blood target any day.
"Lure him out into the open, the flash bangs won't have as much relative effect outside and we can flank him." She spoke before speaking to the NAIL support outside. "Have you got any smoke grenades, Agent Ross? I think it's our turn to rob him of sight."

There was very little movement from the bank, although that was no surprise. In both hostage situations and raids people tended to duck down and hide rather than flee; rapid movement usually ended up with being shot whether you were dangerous or not. Criminals were rarely discipline or discriminate about who they killed in raids although there was a distinct lack of panic around the bank suggesting the events were still contained inside.
Out of the corner of her eye she noticed a small machine rising up above the rooftop and she backed away from her rifle, taking some small element of cover behind a large metal tube, part of the air-con system, that pushed air from inside the building out. Her trusty sidearm was in her hand but there was no other sign of an enemy attack and before long she could hear a voice through her earpiece, presumably transmitted via the drone.
"Sunny with a chance of ass-kicking. Agent Alexis Chandle here." She returned to her sniping position, taking a better look at the drone to ensure it wasn't dangerous. At least, dangerous to her. As she resumed her surveillance of the building she noticed NAIL vehicles pulling up around the bank, established a perimeter and then informing Alexis they would flush the Villain inside out. "If you want to get in on the action you might want to get a move on, Agent Nova Black. I'm just here in case they make a break for it." She flicked the safety off her weapon, watching to see how the drama would involve.
Apparently it would be a classic Hero vs Villain battle.
"I've got someone else entering the building from the west side, first floor. Could be another Villain, stay alert." She spoke into her mouthpiece, scanning the building to see if she could get a better idea of what was going on inside but it was impossible from here. "Keep me apace with events inside."
