Kate held her breath and waited. What she was waiting for was beyond her at the moment, but she held her breath all the same. As she looked up at the tower before her, she realized she had never been in the Baxter Building in her life. Maybe the holding the breath thing was really a panic attack in disguise.

Sally Floyd and Ben Urich were the ones garnering all the attention for their papers, and Kate had been last on the list to get scraps for the Observer. She was not about to trade on her friendships to get a story. Not if it meant getting her friends in trouble at least.

"They said Reed Richards would be back soon," she grumbled as she finally lit up a cigarette and sat on the steps. "When? When I'm a grandmother?"

"OK, that guy stood me up," Kate muttered as she grabbed her bag and started to get to her feet. Then she looked up and saw a large SHIELD transport landing on the top of the building. Well, on the rooftop landing pad anyway. "Whoa, what the hell is going on up there? This is one time I wish I could fly, but then they'd stick me in jail for not registering anyway."

As she ran back down the plaza away from the building, Kate could see a ton of SHIELD troops, but they were not making a delivery. They were picking up something. Whatever it was, it was huge.

"That looks decidedly unkosher," Kate mumbled as she tried to use her digital camera to get a better look. Whatever it was was loaded on the transport by the time she got the camera set. "Damn!" she yelled as she dropped the camera and it shattered all over the sidewalk. She didn't see the second transport roaring out of the underground parking area until it was halfway up the block and out of range. "OK, something funny is going on, and since Reed Richards is not a comedian, that is a bad sign."

"So, you got the call too, eh?" Ben Urich said as he walked up to Kate. "Sally should be here soon, but I think all the action is going down at Avengers Tower. Somebody did not want us over there, so that means one thing..."

"No, you missed it! Two big SHIELD transports! Flying out of here like they were on fire to get wherever they were headed!" Kate started saying animatedly as Ben lit up another ciagrette and shook his head. He looked up toward the top of the Baxter Building and started to speak, but he dropped his cigarette and pointed. Another SHIELD transport pulled up. "See! I told you..."

"Fine. Fine." Ben said as he looked around for a place with a better vantage point. "Great! No way to get a better shot at this since 9-11. Too much security in the buildings around here for us to just barge in. Well, if we were supposed to see Reed Richards, we might as well head inside. Maybe we'll get lucky."

"And maybe we'll get arrested!"

((Reporters? Why now?)) Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier, thought as he hung back in an alleyway near the Baxter Building. ((I have to see what the hell is going on, and I do not need them bird dogging me to a rooftop)). Bucky made it down the alley to a service entrance to a building diagonally across from the Baxter Building, and he made his way inside. It was going to be a long run up to the roof, but he promised Cap and Nick Fury he would keep his eyes open in case Stark and his buddies did anything too funny. SHIELD transports zipping in and out at all hours qualified for that.

((Should have taken Falcon up on his offer of a lift, but of course I didn't))

Once they cross through Cloak's portal onto the
otherside... SHIELD troops that were hidden away
came out into the open and began shooting at
them, "That did not take long!"

Kat was using her wind power to direct the bullets away from her.
"Oh I'm doing alright sweetheart,"

"Hey Santo I think these guys missed us," Kyle said as he levitated
a few of the guns and tossed them a good feet away.

"Man this is as bad as having obsessed fans chase you to steal your
clothes and auction them off on eBay. Only we aren't that lucky," Kevin
said. Kevin fired his fireball attacks up at the sentinals.

"However, if they want souvenirs then isn't it our job to give it to them?"
Katherine said as she smirked at Santo. "Maybe they would like some
autographs." She looked at the shield troops and yelled at them. "Where
would you lke me to sign my foot impressions at on you dummies?"

Cyclops let lose with a series of blasts hitting empty cars..trucks..
causing a series of explosions... "Stay on task!... we need to get
inside the building!"

"Oh sure and why not ignore the huge badly made tin men from the wizard of
Oz?" Jayden asked. He brought out his light sword and started to attack. "Say,
do you think that if we ask then these things will leave and all the bad guys will let
us go by?"

Suddenly small weak creatures with bat wings, claws, beaks, four legs, and
are only a foot and a half tall came right down from the sky and went after
anything and anyone they could. "Oh great..." Jayden said as he had to make
his sword vanish and started punching the weird things with his fist. "Ummm
Cyclops? Try not to kill these things otherwise they come back and grow
in number when that happens."

"Sounds like your brother is here Jayden," Hisoka said as he just pulled one of the
creatures off his arm and flung it out of the way. Strange markings Started to glow
red under his shirt, making them quit visible. "And he is close by,"

((We never had to bash our way in)) Sue thought as she went invisible as she exited Cloak's portal. ((I could have gone first and shut off the ...No, Reed probably changed all the codes and locked me out anyway)).

This was all starting to wear Sue down more than she was willing to admit. Why had Reed gone off the deep end in all this? Why had any of the heroes for that matter? Right and wrong were one big blurry line as she made her way toward the building entrance. She saw Ben Urich and some other woman she didn't recognize. She couldn't let them get killed.

"Sorry, Ben, but you'll have to get your story another day," she said as she placed a force field bubble around the pair and lifted them out of the line of fire.

"Sue! You don't understand! Something weird is going on in your husband's lab!" Ben protested as Sue set the bubble down and out of harm's way. "SHIELD transports have been going in and out of here like Grand Central."

"Oh God," Sue muttered as she ran back to Captain America. "There may be more troops inside. Ben Urich just told me they saw transports on the roof."

X-MEN Santo Vaccarro

Iron Man had a special group of soldiers hidden away to protect
the Baxter Building and the work that was inside Richards Lab...
Hover Tanks came from all directions... and then a group of
soldiers wearing Iron Man like armor.......

Kat was using her wind power to direct the bullets away from her.
"Oh I'm doing alright sweetheart,"

"Hey Santo I think these guys missed us," Kyle said as he levitated
a few of the guns and tossed them a good feet away.

"Man this is as bad as having obsessed fans chase you to steal your

Katherine said as she smirked at Santo. "Maybe they would like some
autographs." She looked at the shield troops and yelled at them. "Where
would you lke me to sign my foot impressions at on you dummies?"

Santo laughed but quickly became serious when he saw the Hover Tanks
and the Iron man armor troops, "Crap!... I think we are about to get a
beat down!" Rockslide shouted as he spun around and grabbed Kat and
his friends and leaped through a window and into a department store
as the area where they were exploded with pulse blast ... "Are you
guys okay?!"

"Hisoka you okay!?" Anole shouted out as he saw the strang markings glowing and
the bird like creatures... Victor hurry to get close to him but then the Iron Man like
armor soldiers.. Landed in front of him and opened fired... "Damn it!" Vic shouted
as he leaped onto a building wall and suddenly disapeared...

"Hisoka you okay!?" Anole shouted out as he saw the strang markings glowing and
the bird like creatures... Victor hurry to get close to him but then the Iron Man like
armor soldiers.. Landed in front of him and opened fired... "Damn it!" Vic shouted
as he leaped onto a building wall and suddenly disapeared...

Hisoka looked at Anole. or at least at where he vanished from. "Don't worry, I'm
alright." He said. "These marks don't hurt me anymore," He said as he looked at the
glow that came through his shirt. "Oh crap..." Hisoka looked at the Hover Tanks
and the Iron like, armored soliders. Hisoka put up and empathic barrier around himself
and those closest to him. However, that only worked once as the combination of the
weird creatures attackig and the shots it the barrier and the barrier vanished.

"Uhh... Hisoka...." Jayden said. Hisoka knew what his friend was goig to say and Hisoka
was cursing himself as some of the shots being fired by their attackers were hitting the
little creatures. That act was causing the creatures to not only come back but also devide
into two each time they were attacked.

"We need to get inside," Hisoka said. He had a feeling that Jayden's brother was somewhere inside.

Santo laughed but quickly became serious when he saw the Hover Tanks

his friends and leaped through a window and into a department store
as the area where they were exploded with pulse blast ... "Are you
guys okay?!"

"Oh we're fine," Kyle said. He picked up a coming and started looking at it.

"Dang, we finally get to go to a store together and I don't have any money on me," Kat said.

"Hey, don't those weird creatures belong to that crazy doctor?" Kevin asked as about
five or six of them weird things were flying right towards them and some got struck down
by gunfire but all that did was make the ones that were struck down divide and become
two each time.

"I already read this one," Kyle said as he tossed the comic aside and rejoined his friends.
"Wow, I always knew that stores like these would draw in unwanted pests."

"Well, since shooting don't work maybe I can burn them to ashes," Kevin started to climb
out the window when Katherine grabbed the back of his shirt and pulled him back down. "Hey?"

"Dummy think about it, They die, split into two and come back. Now how many do you think
will come back if you fry them to ashes?" Kat said.

"I think we need to get inside," Kyle said. "Because I bet that the weirdo doctor is inside," He
levitated some small shelves and would be ready to throw them should those creatures come in.

"Hey,I was going to look at that stuff," Kat pouted.

"I'll buy you the catalog," Kyle said as he rolled his eyes.

"I didn't know about the Hover Tanks or the power armor
troops!" Spider-Man shouted as he leaped to the side of
a building and kicked off into a flip.... He landed on a
hover tank... "This is a Hover jacking!" He spouted out
as he webbed the soldiers......
