The call comes in about 4:20 am EST.

A man in crimson armor climbs out of a harbor in Manhattan, barely able to stand. He collapses, water-logged and battered, upon the ground. He lit up American airspace alerts two or three miles out, but he moved too quickly for anyone to mount an adequate response.

Two hours later, Crimson Dynamo sits in an interrogation room on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, awaiting someone, anyone who will hear him out. It galls him to ask the Americans for help, but he has no choice.

He is betraying his country to save it from a monster.

	Pff. Another Commie. And whatever the hell that spider-thing is. Who knows how many of those freaks there are anymore? This Hulk isn't too impressed with his "teammates" so far. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Brock notices the look Red Hulk just gave him. "Can I help you?" Eddie tries to keep the tenseness out of his tone. He saw what the Red Hulk did, taking over the White House in an effort to usurp the country. Eddie had done things he wasn't proud of, but this guy committed treason. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Doubt it," comes the terse response, dismissive of anything this thing could possibly do that would in any way be of assistance to him. "What are you, anyway? What is it about spiders that makes four hundred of you jokers try to work that theme?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mr_brock 2011-05-11 05:28 pm UTC (link)
	Eddie keeps his annoyance in check at the dismissive attitude. "I was Venom, the first one, not that animal Gargan." Brock eyes Red Hulk. "What is it with all the gamma-irradiated people theme?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hulk's head cocks slightly, ignoring the retort for now. "You're that thing that ate brains?" THAT'S what Rogers thinks of me, huh? "What the hell are you doing here?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"For the record, I never actually ate brains. It was a threat I made once and it turned into a running gag. Gargan however..." Eddie hears Black Widow and uts himself off. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Save WHAT for the field? Wondering whether or not this clown's going to get fresh with that disgusting spaghetti-noodle tongue of his?" A finger points at Brock. "Try anything like that and I'm ripping the damn thing out, along with your nasty dental work." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mr_brock 2011-05-11 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	Eddie disconnects from the wall, landing on his feet. "Oh yes, this coming from the brute that tried to take over the damn country! I held my own against the real Hulk, don't think I can't take you!" Anti-Venom's tendrils extend a bit from his right hand. "I can sense your radiation. You're a sick man. I wander who you'd turn into if I cured you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thunderbolthulk 2011-05-11 07:41 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah, you'll 'hold your own' against me all right, after I rip 'em off and feed 'em to you," he grunts back, while making no actual aggressive move. Letting the whole 'treason' charge go unanswered for now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mr_brock 2011-05-11 08:34 pm UTC (link)
	Eddie doesn't move either. Tendrils writhe a little, but make no further motion toward Red Hulk. If this happens, he's not going to be the agressor. He snarls a bit, but he keeps his nger in check. He did say he'd try and be a team player. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Rhodey was in full armor, ammo fully loaded.

It was a good thing his faceplate was down. He wouldn't have wanted to let his expression show right now. He respected 'tasha, and though they had not worked together much, he respected Carol and appreciated another Air Force person around. The other guy, he didn't recognize.

But the Red Hulk and Venom? What was Steve thinking?

His Gatling Gun snapped forward on its rails. "Both of you, knock it off."

Brock turns to look at Rhodey, then to Red Hulk, and back to Rhodey. The tendrils retract into his hand and he backs away.

"I promised I'd play ball." He didn't fear War Machine's ammo, Castle put a bullet through his head and he'd survived. But this wasn't about what he could or couldn't do, he'd said he'd do this. Eddie wanted to be someone who's word ment something. Though he does point a finger at War Machine. "However I do not answer to you. I will do my part." He takes a mkoment to address Widow. "Sorry." He returns to his space on the wall.

	The red behemoth just gives the Widow a deadpan look. Not saying anything. Not looking the least bit intimidated by shouting or the gatling gun pointed his way. "Where's Captain America?" That's the one he's here to respect. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Winter Soldier said nothing, but simply made certain his adamantium knife was ready to slide from its sheath anytime. He decided the red one the target of highest threat importance and the one to be dealt with first if it came to it. When everyone relaxes, James does so as well...slightly.

	"Loving the teamwork and comradely here," Marc says leaning against a wall were he hadn't really been noticed yet. "So can we get to the mission details finally before we're all to old to do it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Captain America isn't here for obvious reasons," Natasha said. "Now here's the situation...." She would explain what was going on in Russia and what they need to do. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I know the area in question. The facility will be heavily guarded and the men highly trained." Winter Soldier says. "How soon do we move?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

The Red Hulk isn't quite buying this. Scoffing at a uniform.

"Tell me more about this 'Red Ghost' character. I'm more than happy to go crack some skulls in Russia before they decide to go back to being hardline bastards again, but I'd bet Karloff's just trying to shore up his power of his own free will. Conditions over there are in the crapper. Ripe for that kinda exploitation."

"Real name's Ivan Kragoff. A scientific genius in a variety of fields. Got his start working for the Communist government in their efforts to beat us to the moon. Later trained a trio of apes to be his crew and duplicated the Fantastic Four's exposure to cosmic rays. Has since become another scientific megalomaniac."

Anti-Venom notices the surprised looks directed at him.

"What? I was a reporter. I did my fair share of information-gathering."

	The Hulk just slaps a hand over his face. He spent so much time trying to outthink the Leader and MODOK that he forgot about the detritus in the Intelligentsia - the guy with the damn monkeys. "Kragoff. Right. I know that guy, and I owe him a beatdown." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"This shouldn't be about settling scores. We've been given a target to deal with. We need to get in, neutralize the resistance and move out. Anything more is just asking for us to get the Winter Guard put on our tail, and they aren't pushovers." Winter Soldier says.

"Also, once the Russians are aware we're there, it's going to start something big. We can afford to give them a reason to trace this back to the United States." he says.

"Ivan Kragoff should be brought back for questioning if we can manage it. Otherwise, we need to deal with him and keep moving."

	Some part of Ross wants to have America claim it stomped out some Commie uprising, but he gets it. "We got any proof of this mind control crap, or are we just going off of what that flamin' Crimson Dynamo's gut hunch says?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Which Dynamo is this one anyway?" Rhodey asked. "They seem to change them out every other week." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's what we're going to find out," Natasha said. "Wheels up in ten." With that she went to check on the gear. (Reply to this)(Parent)
