The Wrecker meets Creel's eyes, giving a nod from his spot at the far corner. He's fingering his crowbar excitedly. He's been wanting to get the drop on these chumps for years.

Piledriver's watching closely, too... eyes nervously shifting between his teammates that he can see from the back courtyard area.

Thunderball looks to be the sea of calm here... always been smarter than the rest of the gang, but content to let Wrecker throw his weight around so he feels better. He gives Creel a nod. Two wrecking-ball wielders should make for some entertaining carnage.

Bulldozer's in a track runner's position from across the street, with a clear run in front of him, thanks to a conveniently timed construction blockade of this chunk of the road.

He's ready to knock on their front door.

There's another crash coming from the back of the mansion as well... and within moments there's a sound of gushing water - something destroyed a restroom, and the plumbing is exposed...

A huge hole is suddenly torn in the side of the mansion, bricks and foundation shattering inward and flying with fierce force at anyone nearby....

A front window shatters, glass shards flying nastily around the room... and there's an immediate clomp on the stairs, heading to the second floor...

Creel takes his time... waiting to see how the Wrecking Crew handles things before he makes his own move. He walks casually, invisibly toward the shattered front door that Bulldozer left behind, ball and chain swung casually over his shoulder for the moment.

Right, if that's how they want to play it?

Natasha sends out the general alarm (if the destruction weren't alarm enough to those in the Mansion proper) and heads toward the door. Someone's behind this, someone calling the shots from the outside.

Her eyes narrow.

There's a lot of noise coming from behind her, as walls are crashed through seemingly at random.

It may cover up the sound of a ball and chain whiffing through the air, intent on crashing down more of the door frame to send debris flying at her.

Hitting the Black Widow with debris is about as simple as catching flies with chopsticks. She's nimble.

She also has a more limited list of who's out here now, judging by the sound and motion. "Bulldozer?" she mutters to herself as she catches the attack on Wanda out of the corner of one eye.

THIS is going to be fun.

There's none of the usual boasting and catcalling going on, considering it's the Wrecking Crew.

Creel's even careful about the sound of his footsteps. He wants his presence to be a surprise.

His eyes are locked with the Widow's though, even if she doesn't know it. It's always difficult to get the drop on her.

So he waits her out. Seeing what SHE's gonna do. Rare that the Widow is visible and her opponent isn't.

Shulkie is at the top of the stairs, hearing the footsteps coming, but not seeing anybody.

This better not be Skrulls playing silly invisible games again, or she's gonna be annoyed.

You wouldn't like her when she's annoyed.

There's no hesitation, the footsteps come with a charge, and the enchanted crowbar gifted from Loki shoots RIGHT out and She-Hulk's knee, and his other arm shoots out with Asgardian strength toward her other knee, hoping to completely upend her and knock her off balance before she can do that HULK thing and start cracking heads. Take her out quick...

"Ow!" she grunts with the first blow. Dropping back a bit.

"OW!" she screams at the second. Down on her butt for a moment, her knees throbbing. Ow ow ow ow ow stupid magical crowbars.

Okay, yeah. She's annoyed.

She springs to her feet (ow) and swings a fist toward where she thinks the crowbar came from.

The Wrecker, however, took the opportunity when she was on her butt to get behind her... and as he swings the crowbar at the back of her head to try and knock her wobbly self down the stairs, he has to bite his lip not to say anything clever.

Or what he would consider clever.

Ok, she's not back in top form yet but she's an Avenger and bruising up these bozos would make her day.

Destroying a bathroom probaby wasn't the best of ideas for a guy tryin to stay invisible. The water dripping from his body gives a slight shape to his outline - helped by the massive amounts of property damage exploding from right next to that outline as he makes his way through the halls, heading for the kitchen...

"I see London, I see france..." Her arm flicks out flinging a battle stave at him from her sleeve hitting him hard before returning to her hand.

"Oops nope I just see an idiot."

And he's hit hard... but he's one of the Wrecking Crew. They hold their own with guys like Thor.

But now that he's seen, he doesn't have to be quiet anymore.

"Hey! I'm pretty damn sure you was dead!"
