Ezra Kane stood at the window and looked down into the lab below. There was a scientist standing behind him, but Kane would talk to him when he was ready. Not a moment earlier. He continued to watch the scientists and doctors moving around down below.

The attack on the former base had been unexpected and unfortunate. Most definitely a set back, but nothing that could not be regained. There were always bumps in the road, just some larger than others. While this one had been significant, it was by no means an end to the program. In fact, it had actually done some good. It forced him to look at the program and re prioritize his goals.

Now he turned to the scientist behind him.

"The vats are functioning and ready for use," the scientist reported.

Kane didn't smile, but he did nod once. "Good. Start the process."

"Of course, sir," the scientist answered and then left.

San Francisco. Home of the Golden Gate Bridge, Ghirardelli Chocolates, the Bay Bridge, the San Francisco Giants and the San Francisco 49ers, was the perfect city for Wen Leong to settle in and enact his plans. With Therese's and the others' help, it wouldn't take him long to take control of the tongs of San Francisco.

He had managed to make a few contacts with some local members and through them he had arranged a meeting with a higher up. It wasn't the man in control, but Wen was patient. He didn't mind slowly making his way up through the ranks. In fact, the slower he went, the less of a threat he seemed to pose to them. They wouldn't know what had happened until it was too late and he was in control.

"It's time," he said to Therese. "Let's go."

It was, all things considered, a pretty good day.  No super-villain attacks, no mad Mandarins, no nothing.  Which was why Toni and some of the other Young Avengers had gone into the city for shopping

It was probably too good to last.

"Okay gang," Toni said.  "Lunch time is upon us.  Suggestions?"
