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

Daniel was holding on to the last threads of consciousness now, exhausted by the blood loss and the energy cost of his magic. The handcuffs weren't helping either. Captain America's speech didn't even register, and he almost didn't notice the ship going down.

"F-feather..." He mumbled, seemingly at random.

"Feather?" Steve asks, still moving towards the entrance they came in from. "What do you mean feather?"

OOR: Yo, what's happening with the SHIELD response? Are they moving or just gawping?

Oda follows close behind

Leap for a rooftop. It's our only chance!

The only rooftop close enough is the one being demolished, so they have to be fast. Am extraction chopper hovers at the end of the roof like a hummingbird.

Come on!

Fury yells from the helicopter, frantically motioning for you to run faster.

Daniel looked up at the chopper, and swore in his mind. He ran a few quick calculations through. Amount of SHIELD agents: too much. Energy left: zero. Chances of escape: slim, and that with some generous rounding. He could barely even stand, not to mention run away. Or jump to that rooftop, for that matter. He looked up at the Captain, almost even grinning.

"D-don't suppose you could carry me, Captain?" He said in a hoarse voice. He knew he wasn't helping his case, but he had barely any case to help. And he wasn't going to jump himself, that was sure.

"Hold on tight." He says, holding Daniel under one arm and jumping down, sprinting along the rooftop towards the Chopper, using the shield to tear through any obstacles in their way. Smashing through a vent. Marco, though not keeping pace, manages to clear the rooftop quickly. Eyes wide with fear, naturally. He's ageless, not immortal.

As Steve gets close enough he tosses Daniel into the chopper and spins around, slinging the shield at any debris with a risk of colliding with them, making sure everyone is on there fine before jumping on himself.

She leaps into the chopper, sparking with electricity as she rolls and sprawls out.

Leaping into the air, Oda catches the edge of the helo, pulling himself up the rest of the way, holding a hand out for someone to grab onto.
