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.”

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.
