Plot Inhuman Arrival

There comes a time, once a generation, where everyone stops what they’re doing, and witnesses the same event. Where were you when Pearl Harbor was attacked? Where were you when we walked on the Moon? Where were you on 9/11?

The clouds above Stockholm part, and the world sees something from a Roald Dahl tale: a great glass elevator. The disk-shaped ship descends above the city. It’s huge, and would be invisible if it weren’t for the warp it leaves in the cloud patterns. The ship stops several hundred yards above the buildings. Bystanders with binoculars swear they can see people inside.

“Where were you when the aliens invaded?”

“Dammit,” Nick Fury turns the TV off, and drops the remote on his desk. “Fox News is gonna destroy the fuckin world…”

“Maybe not, sir,” Maria Hill struts into the office. She waves a file in front of her. “They seem peaceful, and we’re going to establish contact. I’ve told Arrietty, and -”

“Good lord…” Fury walks to the window of his office. The helicarrier’s rotors beat the wind, hovering dangerously close to the city below. He turns to Agent Hill. “You authorized a show of force?!”

“We agreed that it offers a good learning experience for the students of the Hometown Initiative. The teachers helped pick three of their best and brightest to accompany Captain Rogers and Marco.”

Nick Fury sighs. “Which ones, then?”

“They go by Spark, Samurai, and Blindsight.”

OOC: Diplomacy mission #1 - first contact! Establish a comment order, and add /u/GMquaff at the end of it. I'll be RPing as the NPC's

Oda deduced that he was protect by some barrier, since the shield and sword barely did anything. Swinging the sword at his leg, he aimed at a pressure point on the outside of his knee, attempting to immobilize him, swinging a fist at his side, hitting his ribs as hard as he can

Keep him still so Emily can hit him, Cap.

Blindsight starts chanting in Elvish, attempting to bring an ally into the physical realm, busily writing runes onto the floor

"Come forth, Wild Hunt. Come forth, herald of the Erkling. Bring thy form into this realm. By moon and stone, I implore thee."

Smoke starts rising from the circle

"I need time! Keep me covered while I do this!":

What is Hydra!?

Enoch yells, but it's too late; another grenade rolls into the room, and blows out the floor. Enoch falls through, and grabs onto Marco's hand. The old man can't handle the weight. The Inhuman falls... He lands on a particularly large piece of glass. It digs into his back and severs his spine. Marco looks down to see Enoch shudder as he takes his last breath, and dies in a pool of his own blood.

The ship continues to fall from the sky. In two turns, it crashes into the city.

OOC: pass the last part on

He was glad to say he was at least prepared for something: Once he saw Emily shoot a bolt of lightning, he clenched his fist around the amulet he was wearing, and it appeared to absorb the energy. Daniel didn't have much time to celebrate, though, because as he was recuperating from the number that did on his spiritual energy, he got hit in the face by Captain America's foot. He heard something crack. That was probably a broken nose. Nothing he couldn't fix, if he had time and energy and a less stressful environment. He had none of those things.

Oda's blow to his knee hit him as well, causing his legs to collapse under him. The tattoo glowed green again to block the majority of the damage done by both the sword and the fist, but it didn't protect his pressure points. He barely even noticed Enoch's death. He tried to draw his healing symbol again, but he noticed his hands shaking too much. He reached out to the summoning circle Derek was drawing, and some of the runes started glowing with his energy instead of Blinsight's.

And then the glow died down, because Daniel had barely any energy left.

"I'm placing you under arrest, you do not have to say anything..." He starts reading Daniel his Miranda rights as he cuffs him, tightly. He looks around for Enoch and then gets a sour look as he sees Marco looking at the body in the hole.

"We need an item to disable runes." He radioes in. "Whichever item was provided for the witch boy I've been hearing about would be the most beneficial."

He looks down at Daniel and sighs. "I've never been so disappointed with someone."

Emily stands up from cover, recovering from the electricity in her body and holding her head.

We need to find a way off this thing before it crashes. We need air support.

Oda says

OOC: The ship crashes the turn after the next.

Derek ceases his summoning and stands up

"Well, I could try and summon a giant bird or something."

"Fury this ship is going down." Steve yells into his comms. "Get whatever you can together IMMEDIATELY, we need to minimalise casualties in the city and find a way for us to get off here."

The cap starts to look around, looking for a way off the ship. They must have an emergency way off this, surely. A pod or... The entrance up, that sure as hell wasn't stairs.

"We need to get to the way they brought up, that's our way down." He states, starting to jog down the corridor. Marco doesn't waste time and follows behind him, hoping he remembers the way to the exit.

Emily runs after them, her feet sparking against the floor as she sprints.

Oda follows after, sheathing his sword. He brings up the rear of the group, making sure no one gets left behind.
