All the armies all the missiles All the symbols of your fear
Captain America, symbol of freedom and hero, had long fought terrorists such as Hydra, AIM and such groups as the Skeleton Crew. Today it was different. Today Captain America led a small group of Hydra soldiers into a missile silo in the mid-west. They quickly overcame the security forces stationed there and reached the control room. It wasn't long before the Hydra agents hacked into the computers and started the launch sequence. In a few moments the missile would launch and strike targets in Russia. The retaliation strikes from Russia would take care of targets in the United States.

It wasn't the only damage done by the symbol of America. He gave the Skeleton Crew and other hydra teams the blueprints and locations of other missile silos across the United States. They easily broke into the bases and started the launch sequences.

The world was on the brink of World War III and no one knew it.

	Gabor recoils slightly, roughed up expression shifting to lidded disappointment. Really? Borrowing other's catchphrases? His respect for his opponent just dropped. He rolls his shoulders, because he doesn't need to get angry, and drives at the hero. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

There is, of course, a reason for that. The catchphrase is there for a good reason when it comes to gamma. A little less aware of anything but what's before him, but feeling the adrenaline rush, Aleks comes right back at him, taking the punches, feeling the pain, the bruises, the cracked bones, and giving right back without any attempt at subtlety or feinting, just raw strength, speed and ferocity.

It's about then that Gabor realizes how true his first analysis of the hero was and how much he underestimated his abilities. Even with all of his strength and experience, he can sense the shift of the fight leaving him. But he can't run off (to where?) and a fighter doesn't retreat ever, he's stuck with digging in and holding out against the onslaught. And he is losing, he can tell, the hero just gets stronger and faster with each hit.

	Aleks' skin has taken on a greenish hue, faint, but noticeable, and his hair has gotten darker, and seemingly longer as well. There's more force, more speed - the injuries are visible - but he's fighting through them right now, forcing Gabor back - but clearly losing some of his situational awareness in the process.

	Gabor isn't going to win this, but the hero isn't going to have his victory cheaply either. Finally, pinned to the fencing and unable to block or retaliate, he gets pummeled until he falls over into the dirt. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

It costs him. The wounds will heal, but it will take time. But more importantly to Aleks, anyway, all of the tightly restrained anger was let loose. His usual discipline compromised, setting back a lot of work. Had the situation been any less dire, it wouldn't have happened - but he knows his limits now.

Or he will, when he comes more back to himself. Right now, the limits of his control is venting by smashing the landscape and surroundings instead of the base itself.
