Mason Jeffries versus The Fairer Sex
It had been a few days since Marrina got back, and outside of practicing his transmutations and studying some chemical formulas more intently, Mason had been determined not to let this shadow take over his life. He was taking a break and trying to beat his time-attack record in Capcom vs SNK 2 when there was a perimeter alert.

	Mason turns his comm on as well. "Apparently... if they attack me without Marrina present, it invalidates it though. ...unless they don't care about that." Well there's a chilling notion. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mel reaches herself out, further into the walls,to observe, then mutters to her teammates. "Not like some kind of proper ladylike declaration was made. Can't we just deal with a trespasser and not worry about the dumb stuff?" Getting her out of their house before she was in Mason and Marrina's presence seemed reasonable.

	Jordan hears the words he needs to - intruder, and Atlantean. Oh, and 'Marrinna's not here', plus 'we don't need to fight fair. Duly noted. Jordan seals all the doors and turns the base's internal temperature up to 110 degrees and turns the base dehumidifier on full blast. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex had been in his room dozing across the bed when the warnings went out. He yawned, stretched and then turned into a lion. Time to go hunting. He left his room and followed his nose to find the intruder. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Dirina continued to make her way through the base. The heat bothered her, but she wouldn't stop until she reached her goal. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jordan ponders. He remotely opens the door to the Temple of Boom just a crack, then feeds his recording of Mason doing Karaoke into the sound system there. (Good to hold onto these things, just in case) After that, he watches the feed from the door. Should it be opened enough for, say, an intruder to enter, she's going to get Whitney Houston at 145 decibels. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Corridor to the left of the front atrium, quite a ways down.," Mel whispers. Then she starts to concentrate herself in the walls nearest the woman "What are you doing?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Dirina made her way to the Temple of Boom. She opened the door, ready to challenge Mason, but dropped to her knees when she did, covering her ears. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Now that their guest has had some surface hospitality, Jordan heads to the temple to say hello. Not that she'll be able to hear him, or anything else, for a while. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Dirnia got to her feet. "I WISH YOUR TEAMMATES NO HARM," she said, being forced to scream because she currently couldn't hear a thing. "BUT IF I MUST FIGHT THEM AS WELL IN ADDITION TO YOU, THEN SO BE IT, MASON JEFFRIES." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jordan walks up to the girl, then taps his chin, making a "give me your best shot" gesture. "You want to fight someone, fine, hit me. You broke into our base. And when you break into Alpha Flight's base, you deal with Alpha Flight." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"STOP!" Mason gets himself up from the couch, pulling his sneakers back on.

"I'm right here. If you're here to fight me under the terms of a formal challenge, I won't run from it. No-one else on the team needs to get hurt."

He vaults himself over the back of the couch, walking towards the Atlantean girl with hopefully much more confidence than he's actually feeling.

"Jordie... call Marrina." He points a finger at the girl. "You. Outside." He jerks a thumb towards the door to the Temple.

Jordan shakes his head. "Mason, if you want to go through with this, that's your decision. But this isn't just your problem... she snuck onto Canadian soil to attempt assassination. If I showed up in Atlantis and started beating the crap out of people based on Canadian law, Namor would have my head, figuratively speaking. And he'd be right. I'm not going to get in the way of your challenge if you feel like you have something to prove - but this is my base too. I don't care what her reasons are. You guys go beat the snot out of people, and then she's under arrest for breaking into a government installation, and the Atlanteans can come talk to me if they don't like it. Even if she wins, I'd say she can start talking about marrying Marrinna in 15-25."

	Marrina arrived moments later. "Can we at least take this outside? I'd rather not have our house wrecked. ...And why did they send a woman?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Seconded." Mel grumbles. She's still halfway sunk into the floor and the ambiance is....not the kind Alpha Flight typically gets in their home. Someone's really not in a good mood. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
