Ender's directions had been good, so Stephanie hadn't had any trouble finding Vanko's family. It'd taken a little persuasion (but not as much as she'd worried it might) to get them to come along, but she'd managed it and hustled them down to the Pegasus facility.
Getting into a super-secret facility, on the other hand -- that might be trickier. Her lockpicking skills weren't quite up to spec yet, and as for hacking? Ha.
"Oooooookay, this might be a little tricky . . ."
Unless maybe someone had conveniently smashed their way into the building or something. Hmm.
Oh look there! A conveniently smashed wall that they could go through!
And beyond that, two guys in robotic suits of armor fighting like they were getting paid to do it. Tony was possibly even using this mythical thing called strategy to avoid getting beaten into a small scrap heap.
Go, Tony!
That was, of course, until his arm was caught by Vanko. "You are in my way, Iron Man."
Strategy didn't quite work so well when someone in a nay indestructible suit of armor dragged you into a very thick wall. Possibly nearby where Stephanie was.
Because this was Marvel and everything was built on coincidences.
Oh, look, melodramatic fight banter drifting out through a conveniently smashed hole in the wall! This was all so familiar despite being in a different world.
"Come on," she told Vanko's wife and kid, gesturing for them to follow her through the hole. "I swear to crap, he'd better not be doing anything exceptionally dumb."
Oh, look. A loud impact noise. Apparently she was wrong.
