Hank shook his head. "We can't abandon our ideals just because of a promised reset button. if we destroy the city and then the timeline shifts and brings it back, that doesn't change what we did. We've got to play this one as if it's for real.
And I agree with the Captain. Many of the Supreme Soviets are my friends in my own timeline; whatever's going on, I don't want to have to fight them if it can be avoided."
Hank turned and looked thoughtfully at captain America. Steve?

"You're starting to make me feel like some armend nuclear bomb you know that. Let's not underestimate them. Still you may be right. If it goes bad I'll try to hold them of. But Hank is right, I'd rather not hurt them. Too much..."
Carol has about no idea how to play this since she doesn't even know what their ultimate goal will be but the plan sounds solid enough so she just nods in agreement.

Main Assembly Room
Sub-basement level one
Avengers Mansion
Previously . . .
Other issues are discussed in the waning moments of the current Avengers first team meeting, but nothing of the significance of the issues already discussed. Their first task, in hopes of salvaging reality (at least according to Sandra, the hologram of a young woman), was to infiltrate the Supreme Soviet (the current Avengers of this timeline) and grant access to their computer to the Vision and subsequently, Sandra. The Supreme Soviet consisted of Darkstar, Red Hawk, Titanium Man, Black Widow, Crimson Dynamo, Colossus, and Comrade Russia
The group understood that their Avengers Mansion was on the site of the Stark Manor, a home for children of those fallen in matters of the state run by an Edwin Jarvis, and that to return to the mansion they had to enter this Manor. Also, the team was going to use disguise and subterfuge to enter the Supreme Soviet Compound.
Rumor had it that there was a cliff side entrance and that a political prison may be beneath the Compound. The Supreme Soviets are stationed on an peninsula approximately 6.6 miles away. Three-story building, fenced land of approximately 22 acres. Much of the peninsula is guarded either through technology or those on monitor duty. There are no patrols in the area. The current whereabouts of any of the Supreme Soviet is unknown.
The Avenger made their way to their various rooms to drop off and arrange their personal items, get acquainted with their rooms and the like. In an hours time, the team was to regroup at the equipment lockers (either in or out of costume based on their part in the mission) to gather their communicators (range 100 miles) and the Talus.
OOC: Final Issues and plan before starting Issue #1 on Wednesday.

Mr. Immortal is ready
Craig was excited... His FIRST official mission for the Avengers!!
Arriving at the lockers the rest of the Avengers might see a 30-something young lankier than average man with big wavy reddish blond hair flapping with a big white smile from ear to ear as Craig walked down the hallway... This time his costume lay across his shoulder - now dressed in a pair of kakis, a dark blue turtle-neck sweater and a leather bomber jacket unzipped...
Craig had asked Jarvis to help him remove the Avengers patches from one of the official jackets for the covert opts of this mission... His costume would stuff nicely into a bagpack or dufflebag after picking up his communicator.
Out of costume some might not recognize Mr. Immortal, but his "mane" would probably give him away since he'd just left the others earlier...
Looking up and down the hallway as he strolled, as if waiting for someone to tell him what to do, Mr. I kept watch for Captain America. He wasn't sure if Cap wanted to go with his plan at "impersonating" the team's leader, or if Cap had another idea for his "distraction"...
Either way Craig muttered to himself....
"We gotta play 'em one day at a time."
"I'm just happy to be here and hope I can help the ballclub."
"I just wanta give it my best shot and, Good Lord willing, things'll work out."

Captain America
Captain America was the first to stand as they made their way from the room. They returned to Jarvis and their luggage in the foyer and then off to their rooms. He carried his duffel bag and dropped it on the floor inside the door. He had always felt comfortable here in the mansion. It had always felt like home. Maybe because no place else ever had.
He pulled a few things from his bag. He had only a few belongings. Two framed photos were placed on the ornate dresser. One was of him and Steve in costume, shaking hands. The other was of a large group of Avengers. He had never had much family and it only seemed right to have a picture of the closest thing he had to a family.
He pulled a few pieces of clothing out and looked over his olive drab fatigue jacket. And smiled. He stuck a few other items under his arm and made his way back downstairs to the equipment lockers.
He was surprised to find Mr. Immortal pacing through the room. Was he talking to himself?
"Craig. This is a pretty huge mission by all of our standards. How are you handling everything?" As he spoke, he looked for the Talus, Sandra had told them about. He was rather eager to examine it.

Craig & his idol
Craig took a few deep breaths... He imagined the years that had rolled by in the Mansion... Men with the power of gods have walked the very halls he now paced...... heck, GODS... like actual g-o-d-s, the real thing have made their time here!!
and at that thought his heart seemed to lump up in his throat.... and then he heard the voice that those gods followed...
"uuummm, aww-hey Cap... Ah'm just workin' the nerves out. Ah'll be okay when it starts, least Ah hope I'll live up to yer standards. You know as good as me that the Lightning Rods, er Great Lakes Avengers weren't nothin compared ta yer team... uhh are team..."
Craig glanced down at the fatigue jacket Cap had...
"o-yeah that reminds me... what were you thinkin about Ah should do for the distraction part a-yer plan?"
Craig started folding then rolling his Red White and Blue costume into a tight tube......... Looking down at the colors he continued - Craig talked when he was nervous... Hopefully Cap wouldn't mind.
"yeah - Ah... Ah took the color ideas for my gear pretty much directly from yer Uniform... Then made more of a bodysuit, since armor-ner-nothin really made a difference with my abilities. Ah sorta went with a Spiderman theme with the bodysuit, but when Ah tried the full mask - Ah almost couldn't breath the first time I jumped offa the Sears Tower... Ah mean geeze Spidey must be some sorta mutant athlete to be able to flip around like he does without needin to take big-ol breaths....
Yeah - ya just can't git the full breaths with the spandex over yer mouth AND nose...
So then Ah went back to the open chin design just like yer headpiece, but then my hair - well it's a little unmanageable... and my boss at the insurance office (at the time), well he didn't like me always comin in with my hair all matted down like ...... Ah mean they didn't know it was from the costume - Ah just toldem I liked wearin ball caps....
Ah hate ta say it Cap, but Ah'm a Chi-Sox fan myself..... whater you? Yer probably what - maybe a Yankees fan??.....
ahhh wait - yer probably a Dodgers boy huh-Cap?!! Like back in the day when they were in New York...
Well anyway - as Ah was sayin about my mask - well Ah had to make a decision and so Ah went with choppin the top offa the headpiece, Ah sorta thought Ah was bein original since Ah couldn't remember any major Costumers with their hair hangin out... and....
Mr. Immortal continued and continued... Cap's pep talk really hit the spot, like an Oreo Cookie and Milk snack before bedtime.........
How Cap or any other passerbys felt with all Craig's blabbing ... who knows... Mr. Immortal would be none the wiser....

Hank smiled into the mirror, and the Beast smiled back. "Mistrust all enterprises that require new clothes," he muttered.
The clothes themselves were fine. Nicely nondescript - white shirt, brown blazer, and dark slacks. Not at all memorable; the blue fur, on the other hand . . . In his own timeline, he hadn't needed to disguise his true experience for years, but ina foreign reality, it was best to be inconspicuous. With a sigh, Hank switched on the Image Inducer, and took a close look at Doctor Henry Philip McCoy. He saw a big man, with a wide face and broad smile, unruly dark hair (with a smattering of grey), and a pair of wire-rim glasses perched precariously on his nose. More than anything he looked like a schoolteacher on his day off. "Some things never change", he smirked.
Hank rummaged through his bags, and tossed a handful of gadgets into his briefcase, along with well-worn copies of Orlando, What's Bred in the Bone, and the collected poems of W.B. Yeats. He took out a small blackened piece of metal on a strap and tucked it under his shirt. And with that, he walked down and joined the others.
ooc: Image Inducer - Hank's using his Gadgets extra for Shapechange.

After the meeting, Flint rose slowly and walked out the door with the other "Avengers." He followed them silently to the foyer, picking up his bags and taking them to the personal quarters provided for him. His bag wasn't very full... These days he didn't really have much use for clothes - his powers allowing him to mimic whatever clothing he needed - but he always kept some at hand. It helped him to retain some semblence of a normal life. After unpacking what things he had, Flint decided to head back to meet the others, muttering under his breath, "I still don't understand what the hell is goin' on."

As Captain America began to glance about for the talus, he felt a slight weight increase on his left forearm and wrist area. Glancing down, he noticed a six inch wide bracer of a thin metallic material. On the underside of the bracer was a mirror-like screen about threee inches square. On the screen were the words.
Welcome Captain America
Mission objective: Obtain data link to Supreme Soviet Computers to determine critical variance point of timeline. Return to Stark Manor upon completion.
At Captain American's slightest thought that this added weight might throw off work with his shield, the talus became weightless.
