Rallying the troops
Everyone's memories came back to them, once they had a few reminders. Avengers Mansion made a good rallying point. Some were harder to find than others, but Anya managed most of them, the Tallus did the rest once Sarah asked it.

Time to get back to business.

Sarah waits in the main meeting room, letting everyone get assembled before she delivers the bad, bad news.

	That's when Patriot crashes through the window, leaping for Scrambler with a solid kick aimed for Scrambler's solar plexus. See how he likes not being able to breathe for a while. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

A guy busting through the window was rather unexpected. And that foot in his gut hurt. But instinct and sheer cruelty led Scrambler's hands as they grabbed the leg pushing that foot into him and even as he fell backwards, his touch on the powerful calve was enough to momentarily short circuit the Captain America wannabe's system. Just long enough for Scrambler to suck in his own breath, pick himself up and launch himself at the exposed skin on that face.

Patriot rolls out of the way as Scrambler's hands come towards him, sending a sideways kick to his shoulder to knock him back and give himself some more breathing room.

That hurt. Truth be told, it still hurts, but Patriot can't let it bother him right now.

But he also can't afford to let Scrambler touch him again.

His pistols are already out of their holsters by the time he's done rolling to his feet.

Aw shit. Guns. Scrambler uses all of two seconds to let that register before diving away from this new foe and through a doorway so his body was protected by half a foot of mud brick and could no longer be seen by the Cap clone. He rushed through the rest of the house and around another door frame, pressing himself against a wall to lie in wait for the man to come searching for him. He'd fry that star spangled jerks' brains with a fist.

	Patriot doesn't step through the doorway so much as leap through, below where Scrambler would expect him to come. He rolls, spins, and comes up, already firing spatters of energy towards his opponent in a wide burst. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Scrambler ducked on instinct and avoided the blasts. As his body landed on the floor, he lashed out with a foot and sent an already knocked over chair toward Bucky's face. Then he was half-crawling, half-running to get back on his feet and to a new hiding spot, this time making his way through three rooms and finally outside. He expected the gun-freak to be on his heels and pushed himself around another corner as fast as possible, crouching down and ready to kick a foot out to trip the other man as he rounded the corner.

	But Bucky doesn't come around the corner immediately. Did Scrambler lose him? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Scrambler could be a patient man. When there wasn't the threat of guns being put to his head. If he managed to loose the idiot for a moment, all the better. Not bothering to glance around the corner, he pushed himself up and ran for the low wall separating the house he had been in from its ruined neighbor. He jumped the stone and wove in and out of the the broken remains, looking back for a moment as he got to the other side of the yard. If he could spot the hero, he could attempt to sneak up on him still... or at least avoid the guns for the time being.

But while Bucky may not have been as good of a physical combatant as his long-dead partner back in World War II, he was always much sneakier.

So as Scrambler reaches the edge of the yard, Patriot's head ducks up behind him from behind the fence to the neighbor's hard... along with a stun gun.

He's not going to let Scrambler get a chance to notice his mistake, as he unleashes a torrent of stun-energy at the killer.
