The Search For Molly Concludes

May 17, 2007 22:47

There was a loud BOOM, which was quickly followed by a wall crumbling. The guards inside looked surprised and then terrified when they looked out and saw Iron Man descending from the sky, his hands held out from where he had just shot the volly that leveled the wall. Behind him Wolverine landed from jumping from a hovering aircraft and popped his claws with a SNIKT and a snarl. Spider-Man descended from the aircraft on a line of webbing as well and in the window of the aircraft, Spider-Woman waved pleasantly. It was not a good day to be a Weapon X soldier.

"WE HAVE A BREACH! REPEAT, THERE ARE HERO-GURK!!!" The guard's bellowing into his walkie talkie was cut off by claws in his neck.

"You can say that again, bub." Wolverine ripped his claws out in a spray of blood.

"LOGAN!" Iron Man's voice rang metallically in the afternoon as an alarm began to sound and red lights flashed.

"What?" Logan turned to look at Iron Man in defiance.

"...Good work." The strain was obvious, but Tony couldn't forget the reason they were here.

"Heey! I thought I was working for the good guys here! You know, the good guys that don't kill..."

"Shove it, Spider." Wolverine stabbed the other guard, who was still dumbstruck.

"That is not the tone of voice I like to hear, young man."

Wolverine started to glare, but their bickering was cut off by Iron Man. "All right team, we need to move. Everything I've found leads to this base being the one. We need to move quickly before they move her to another location. Stay sharp, these guys may have some of the others too."

"Weapon X only goes after mutants, tin man." Wolverine had to state the obvious.

"Still, just stay on your toes. We don't want them transporting her out of here before we can get to her, or worse. You hear that, Spider-Woman? Maintain the perimeter and make sure nobody leaves."

Her voice came over the communicators. "Roger that, Iron Man."

"Let's move out, team."

"Yes sir!" Spidey saluted and hopped through the hole.

Without comment, Wolverine ran in and to the right. Spider-Man looked after him, then to Iron Man, and shrugged. Iron Man shook his head and pointed to the left. They were splitting up to find her more quickly. After Spider-Man bounded away, Iron Man pointed his hands downward and blasted his way to a lower level. It was time to close this case once and for all and regain some dignity from the successful break-in and kidnapping a few weeks ago.
