Vision

Moving away from Binary, Vision moves up to where the Sandman is standing...

Come it is time for us to leave, while the others are distracted. He whispers to the man.

Jack did not have to act too startled since he was not expecting to see Binary go binary. Oh, Carol...

"So much for the element of surprise. Split up and head for your assignments, people." With that, he headed for the gates and the traffic of people on the streets. He did spare a glance to make sure that Moon Knight, Falcon and Mr. Immortal were following.

Flint stared in shock as Binary began throwing her mock-tantrum. But it wasn't until she burst into flames that he was truly caught off guard. That's a distraction alright...

He looked over his should after Vision had spoken, and nodded slowly. "Yeah... alright. Lead the way."

All but Binary

The man holding the strange gun pressed the trigger and a pale beam of light shot forth, covering many of the Avengers. He looked satisfied at an indicator light on the gun . . . until . . .

Carol screamed and burst into flames falling to the ground and melting the concrete as she fell. She tried her best to act as if she were burning, though acting was never her calling [Bluff: Roll 2 plus 3 Attractive plus 3 Cha, total 8]. The other Avengers scatter from the burning woman while the men on the street look on.

The man with the gun looks startled at what his gun apparently did, then at the display on his gun and said to his companions in a thick Russian/Bronx accent, “It is Marvel Girl, but I thought she was dead. Soon she’ll wish she was . . .”

The distraction was successful for the others . . .

Vision, Sandman and the Beast dart in one direction, the Beast hearing one of the startled men they pass remark “Wow, she’s . . . beautiful . . .” The trio make in around the corner with no incident.

Captain Amercian, Moon Knight, Mr Immortal and the Falcon run in the opposite direction. Moon Knight bumped against one of the men in his ‘panic,’ casually lifting a radio from the man. The foursome fade into the background down the street . . . with no pursuit.

The radio pipes up a moment later, in Russian (for those who understand it): “Marvel Girl sighted, 890 Fifth street, backup requested. Told you if she was still alive, she’d come for her daughter.”

OOC: All other Avengers free to head to the destinations.

Binary

Binary’s performance was successful in one regard, she drew attention from all of the others. Bathed in white-hot flames, Binary glanced around noting the others had fled. The men all had drawn weapons and were taking defensive positions (varying amounts of cover). One of the men across the street was speaking into a radio, though she couldn’t hear what he was saying over the crackling of the pavement beneath her.

Binary’s action – in combat here

jogging behind Cap and the Falcon...
"Cap..... err, Jack... what's going on with Carol? Is that the distraction?? I thought I was the distraction? and I didn't know it was beginning........ geeze Jack, I think we need another briefing. What are we doing here?!?!"

Craig keeps glancing back over his shoulder as he runs, also keeping his eye out for anything to report back to Cap. Though confused by what's happening he's ready to "take the fall" at anytime for his fellow Avengers.

"Keep your head together, Craig. Everything is still working as planned. Carol just had to give us an extra distraction."

Jack looked quickly at the others to determine how they were handling things so far. Part of being a good leader was knowing how your team was doing.

"Sam, any news from Redwing?" As he turned back in the direction they were briskly walking, he noticed Moon Knight was fiddling with something. "Is that one of their radios? I didn't even see that happen!"

Mr. Immortal

"Keep your head together, Craig. Everything is still working as planned. Carol just had to give us an extra distraction."

"right Cap... sorry... just point me in the direction and I'm good"
It clicked...
Craig quickly snapped back to the team, because like Lady Liberty it seems that Captain America has that effect on people, no matter who's in the suit!

Sandman

Vision, Sandman and the Beast dart in one direction, the Beast hearing one of the startled men they pass remark “Wow, she’s . . . beautiful . . .” The trio make in around the corner with no incident.

Once they turned the corner, Flint asked, "Okay, so... how do we get to where we're goin'?"

Vision

Vision heads towards his objective, he avoids eye contact and trys not to draw attention to himself.

Beast

Once they turned the corner, Flint asked, "Okay, so... how do we get to where we're goin'?"

"If we were in my New York, I'd suggest we avail ourselves of public transportation; without local currency, though, it's a risk. They may have a death penalty for turnstile jumping."
