WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD - Mod Plot [Mission Log Post]

[letsgolegion]

Who| Everyone!
What| Fighting all the threats that Galactus' presence has caused
Where| Mostly on and around Braal, except for Spectre team who will be on Earth
When| After Galactus' appearance and after Nova was put in Medbay
Warnings/Notes| N/A for now

There were a lot of fires for the Legion to put out all at once. While the Legionnaires native to the universe constructed the sun cannon near Braal's sun and prepared to fend off an attack from Galactus, the other teams had to get into place in the many places they were needed.

So far Galactus' siphons hadn't been sunk into the planet yet but it was only a matter of time.

Soldiers appeared at the end of the hallway, stun-guns in hand.

"Technicians!" barked the one in front, with the stripes on their sleeve to indicate that they were of higher rank than the rest. "Have you seen anyone suspicious pass by?"

[thethinzooline]

"No, ma'am," said Nick. "We didn't see anyone. We're running a diagnostic to make sure the alarm wasn't a false positive."

Or, you know, were actually making it seem that way themselves.

[nerdninja]

"If we find anything suspicious in the system logs, we will of course forward it directly to security for your perusal," Donnie said.

[the_fuzz]

"It was most likely just a glitch, though. The signs seem to be pointing that way so far." Judy added, thankful for the illusion covering up her nervous nose-twitch

[letsgolegion]

"Fine, continue."

It seemed like they might be home-free, but then the officer paused, nostril's flaring as she inhaled.

"Who do you answer to?"

Her tone was suspicious. The half dozen soldiers with her began to shift their weight and reach for their weapons.

[thethinzooline]

Whuh oh.

"You mean our commanding officer? It's Lieutenant Judy-Donnie-You-Wanna-Get-That?" Nick said, making the words all slur into each other like it was one very long name.

"Also? You might wanna look at that distraction behind you."

There was a horrible screeching roar and even despite Nick outright saying it was a distraction, the entire security team turned to face the illusion of a Talokian bugbeast that had suddenly appeared in the hallway behind them.

A nice little distraction so Donnie and Judy could get the jump on them.

[nerdninja]

As soon as they started turning, Donnie struck in a green blur, leaping forward to slam the edge of his hand into a pressure point on the back of the officer's neck.

Before he'd even finished that strike, he was assessing the others, eyes flicking between them to choose his next target - whoever was closest to having a hand on their comm to call in the situation.

Judy jumped into the fray feet first. The bunny-turned-ballistic-missile slammed into one of the soldiers, knocking him into two of his compatriots.

"Why did we have to get smart guards?!" she complained.

[letsgolegion]

Fortunately, there weren't that many guards to work through. It didn't take long for Donnie and Judy to get most of them down.

[thethinzooline]

Nick leaned against the wall with his arms crossed and shrugged.

"Luck of the draw."

One of the guards went for him with a stun-weapon and --

-- and they hit the wall with it, because Nick wasn't actually there. There was a loud kzzzt as he stunned them with one of the stun weapons he'd picked up off of one the unconscious ones.

He appeared behind the guard and the illusion of him the guard had lunged for disappeared.

That was the last one down.

"We need to find somewhere to shove all these."

'All these.' Like they were clutter that needed to be crammed into a closet before company came over for dinner.

[nerdninja]

Donnie slipped a few steps ahead, peering down the corridor. There weren't any doors in easy dragging distance - and of course, they'd have to confirm what was behind them before they could deal with anything like that anyway. The farther they had to move these guys, the higher the chances that this entire plan was going to come down around their ears.

But he was well used to taking weird paths through any location. They might be doing the frontal approach themselves, but if he were trying to break in here without being seen -

There was a panel above their heads. Duct access, probably. He pointed upward at it.

"If the ducts are wide enough, we could stick them up there."
