The Devil Made Him Do It

[lil_hulk]

The eight foot tall Hulk wandered the streets, not really knowing where it was. Its heavy footfall sometimes making things shake just a little. Most people and things gave it a wide berth. Those that didn't got growled at; then they gave it an entire sidewalk to itself.

It wasn't sure where it was going. It had just destroyed the building that had captured it. Or destroyed the building over the mad doctor's lab who had captured it. Either way, there was rubble behind the Hulk, on its shoulders, and in its hair.

It walked down the street, looking around. It was trying to figure out where it could go to have some peace. To get away from the doctor it had left behind in the rubble.

She frowned a little at that. "Okay where do I have to take you, it's partly my fault you got hurt."

[vincent_amora]

Vincent sighs. He's in no condition to help matters any further, and the Avengers or someone else must have arrived on scene already. Reluctantly, he gives her his address. Hopefully Kristoff will be able to help him set the arm, and more optimistically, hopefully he won't have to hear too much about this.

"That's going to be easier said than done," Nicky said. "Can anyone create a forcefield as strong as Invisible Woman's to contain Jay?"

[the4thblackknight]

"Something tells me that containing him isn't going to do much to calm him down. Any ideas there?" Marcus asked into the comm as he directed Aether to fly after the fleeing Hulk. They were both, as they'd been recently reminded, a bit squishy compared to his teammates, but Jay was his friend. He had to do something.

[lil_hulk]

There were no cars to worry about since most traffic was staying away from the reports of a Hulk rampaging in the city. Also, most of the parked cars had been tossed up and down the block, so the young Hulk had a straight shot at the building across the street.

Rather than try a might leap over the building, the Hulk decided to run right through the building. Glass, metal, and cement would not even slow its stride.

[girlspider]

And May decided it was time to stop as she watched Jay run through the building with wide eyes. With a quick shake of her head, she turned on her heel to catch some of the conversation. "We might be a telepath. He's gone savage and until he runs out of... anger, he's not helping."

[poorgirlsarcee]

She nodded. "I'm going to have to carry you in this configuration, that okay?" She only asked because it was kind of rude to just pick someone up.

[comic_awareness]

Bruce took off into the air beside Marcus. "We might need to call in Doc Samson and Uncle Bruce too..."

Dammit. He really should have Hulk-ready plans. But he really didn't want to raise a hand against his friend.

The burdens of command.

[vincent_amora]

Vincent scowls. "I don't need to be carried. Just... let me lean on you a bit, miss." He gets himself to his feet.

[poorgirlsarcee]

She gave a small nod. "Mira. Sounds hell of a lot better than Miss." She offers a hand to help him up though, at least the armor's main power's working.

[asgardian_angel]

"Do we even have a telepath on the Avengers?" Nicky asked. "I mean. That's always seemed more like an X-Men thing." He zipped ahead of them, then. There were civilians that needed saving.

[vincent_amora]

A short time later, Vincent and his temporary assistance arrived back at the apartment. He knocked on the door with his good arm. He was still able enough to let himself in, but he wanted to give Kristoff the chance to appraise the newcomer before letting her in.

[ngm_adults]

Kristoff opens the door and appraises both his brother and the young lady. "Good afternoon. Vincent, I happen to already know where Audhild is, so I am going to keep the questions minimal. Is there anything besides the arms that needs immediate attention?"

[vincent_amora]

"Magical exhaustion, and we both swallowed some of the harbor. Beyond that, nothing I can discern." Vincent responds. He nods toward his arm. "A mishap with a shield spell... and a Hulk.

This is Mira."

[poorgirlsarcee]

"He dove in after me... I swim like a rock." She did lower her head at that, it was something she'd have to fix. Preferably without being airborne first.

She did wave a little when Vincent introduced her. "Just staying long enough to make sure he'll be alright. Should check in with the others to see how they want damage control worked. Jolly Green's not so jolly at the moment though pretty sure it's not Slim's here's doing." She jerked her thumb at Vincent.

[ngm_adults]

"Good to meet you, Miss. Wingfoot has lost control? Considering previous experience, your presence was probably unfortunate, Vincent. Please come inside." And after he closes the door behind them, Kristoff starts by...adjusting his gauntlets, actually.

[lil_hulk]

The Hulk barreled through the building, smashing through walls like they were tissue paper. It paid no heed to any people in its way. Though people in its way were scrambling the hell out of the way of the eight foot mound of muscle running literally through the building.

It smashed out the other side and looked for its pursuers. It stayed in motion, moving toward the center of the street.

[comic_awareness]

"I think we need to make it a point to recruit one after this," Bruce said.

He accelerated and then dropped down in front of Jay, increasing his glow and throwing bright, disorienting blasts of light in his direction.

[vincent_amora]

Well of course he's adjusting them. Why wouldn't he be? Vincent exhales and dismisses his armor, appraising his bloodied sleeve, before ripping it off, carefully. Oh... my but his arm isn't supposed to look anything at all like that. Distraction now please.

"Is it a clean break?" He chews his bottom lip, looking away from it. "Regarding Jay, he... he wasn't himself. Not in a full-blown gamma-rage, but... I don't think he was seeing reality in the same manner as the rest of us. Moreso than usual for Jay."

[the4thblackknight]

Marcus took the easier route around the building, avoiding the wreckage and debris. The last thing he needed was another damaged wing on Aether. The horse had only just recovered from the last one.

On the other side, he saw Jay lumbering away and nudged Aether to fly faster to catch up. He pulled back when Bruce dropped out of the sky and put on a light show. Somehow he didn't think that was going to do them any favors.

[ngm_adults]

Kristoff takes a look, taking his arm gingerly as he gets Vincent to set it on the table. "Clean enough."

[vincent_amora]

Vincent grumbles to himself, covering up a wince as he lays the arm down. "I suppose Manhattan is the wrong city to be walking around in if I'm trying to mind my own business.

Can you check the police bands to confirm the Avengers or SHIELD are on scene? He might have still been escalating at the point I had to pull back."

[poorgirlsarcee]

Mira watched the two as she reached over pulling off the forearm panel of her armor exposing the bare skin under it and her wrist which had a white band on it. The skin around the band was a little red and she frowned a moment.

Hearing Vincent's request she nodded closing her eyes a moment snapping the helmet back in place.

"Do you want it on loudspeaker? Because sounds like they're on the scene. Well at least Avengers are." She visibly cringed slightly. "Ow... Damn please say we're allowed to deck whatever set 'im off."

[ngm_adults]

"The Avengers are clearly on the case. We will let them do their work for now." Kristoff will continue examining, preparing the area, and, with the gauntlets properly adjusted, work to set the bone properly

[vincent_amora]

A muffled but shrill squeak escapes Vincent's throat, as he turns his head sharply, trying to will the pain to cease. It begins to subside. "Thank you, Kristoff." He tries to smooth his voice out, but still sounds strained. "Do you have the means for a cast, or some other support?"
