"See Tabitha. There is absolutely nothing to be worried about although if we were big think what we could of done." Aura says to her friend while trying to to reveal that she is relieved she returned to normal size.

"Glad we can amuse you, Spidey." Tabitha scowled, though glad to be back to normal. "Come on, let's get out of here." She motioned towards the door, at the same time looking at Daredevil, "Are you okay? A cagefight with a nutcase isn't exactly a smart career choice."

To spidey he says, "better watch out web-head. If they go big again, they can just squish you like... well like a spider I spose," A smile on his lips as well.
Turning to Tabby, "it was his idea not mine. It wasn't exactly a cage, and it didn't take me that long. Apparently his honor is sated though," DD shrugs.

"And I don't think they mean just her feet, web-head." Though the situation, and Spidey cracking up, does at least get a smirk. "Thanks for the cigars Nemo, but never knew kids smoked 'em."

Kitty smirks a little at the training comment, glancing to the Captain curiously about his reaction then lookingback to Baron Zemo.
"What if we asked nicely?" she then suggests, offering her most sincere possible smile.

Tabitha nodded at Daredevil's reassurances, then looked at the others. "Come on, let's get out of here. hopefully Cap and the others got what info they could. I want a crack at that fake Atlas. After Hulk and Wendigo, how tough can he be?" She asked with a smug grin, heading out of the castle.

You can almost make out a smile underneath Zemo's mask. "Child, you do yourself and your team much credit by being so kind as to ask. Wisdom beyond your years is yours." You can see the eyes beneath the mask look at Captain America. "But I must remain neutral in this affair; my son wishes to prove himself against the Avengers - Earth's Mightiest, by Mr. Stark's publicity. I would not deny neither him nor thee the honor of testing yourselves to the very limit. I salute you all. If that will be all, please show yourselves out. Without any further damage to my family's home, if you would please."
"We're done here, Avengers." Cap gives a Spider-Man a look as if to confirm the damage has been done.
"Melissa, Erik." Zemo puts a hand on the shoulders of the former Thunderbolts. "I wish you both well. I see that my work has brought out the very bes-"
There's a loud SMACK as Atlas backhands Zemo across the room, growing 10 feet taller in the process. Zemo groans slightly "...yes, i do believe those ribs are broken now..."
"YOU DON'T GET TO SAY SQUAT!" Atlas bellows as he looms over the now helpless Zemo. "YOU DON'T GET TO TAKE CREDIT FOR ME, OR MEL OR ABE OR EVEN NORBERT!" The giant stomps the stairs of the dais where Zemo was. "YOU WERE A MANIPULATIVE, LYING, MANIAC WHO WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD BECAUSE YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE! YOU PICKED US BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT WE WERE WEAK!"
Cap silently gestures to the others to prepare to rush Atlas, but Songbird stands in your way...

Spider-Man gives Cap the thumbs up but once Atlas starts to freak out, he looks over to Tally. "Now might be a good time to get big again..."

As they walk up to join the others they can tell what just happened. DD runs ahead, "hey big guy, I did that already. The gang's all here, its time to go. No need to smack around anymore. You'll just dirty yourself," he says to Atlas trying to calm him down.

Tabitha reverted to normal, looked at Atlas, then stood toe to toe with Songbird. "I won't pretend to know your history, but this isn't right and you know it. If you let Erik do this, you're no better than Zemo is. I could stop him, but it's your place, not mine."

"Let him get it out of his system Cap. If he was going to do anything more, he would've charged after the hit. 'sides, they're only ribs."

Songbird answers. "No, it's Erik's, not mine."
Atlas fumes for a second, his eyes are red and almost glow with fury. He takes a deep breath.
And then he returns to normal size.
"I'm not weak. I've never liked making decisions, taking responsibility. Never wanted those weights on my shoulders. You, Zemo? You love it. You think it makes you big, something to celebrate. You're wrong."
Atlas turns away. "I ain't letting anyone take my weights but me. They ain't great - I've made mistakes. Big ones. But they're my burden to bear, not yours. Me and Mel? We don't owe you anything, except that we know we got to take it on ourselves. Because letting you do it leads to nothing but misery."
Songbird smiles at her friend and gives a thumbs up.
Cap looks at the Thunderbolt. "Nice speech."
Atlas chuckles. "Ain't nothing."
Cap looks to Zemo. "Baron, we'll be taking our leave. Don't call us, we'll call you."
Cap leads the team back to the Quinjet.

Tally sees that they are leaving and turns to head back to the Quinjet. "It will be good to get home." She says on the way.

As she followed the others back to the Quinjet, Tabitha gave Songbird a slight nod, " I glad I trusted your judgement and didn't interfere."
As Tally made her comment, Tabitha stepped up beside her, and placed her arm around Tally's shoulder. "I don't know about home, but back to headquarters sounds good, where hopefully best friends won't zap you wierd enrgy beams, right?""

"Headquarters is the only home I have ever had though." She says partially morose and realizing it is kind of pathetic in her life.
