Calvin looks at the man, appraising him, but remaining calm.
"Is that the way it is, Jury? I've done nothing wrong. Why threaten me? We both fight crime. Why not work together?"
Wish I could turn on the band-adio... let the others know... but he might attack if I do anything suspicious. Got to bide my time, hope the others catch on...
Paladin hovers there, remaining non-threatening, speaking slowly and calmly.

"Yup." Was all Avi replied as he placed his hands on either side of Gabe's head and closed his eyes.
Ashley looked at Tom, and smirked, "We are not going military jibberish. Someone has a hard time keeping up sometimes as it is." She motioned towards Is.
"I do not." Isamu said defesively. "I think we will be clear to move him once Claymore is done."
"Just need a couple minutes." Avi replied with a strained voice.
*************
"The Jury requires no outside help." The bigger man replied. " We determine the fate of those that do wrong, and decide what fate their wrong doings deserve as sentence." He looked closer at Calvin. "Are you trying to delay me so the parties in question can escape? Dirty cops have been ferreted out. Perhaps dirty feds are next?" Jury moved even closer.

"So that's a "no" to the discount card for TGIFriday's then?" Tom responds. "What can I do?"

Calvin nods sympathetically. "Yes, the evil need to be stopped. On that we agree. I'm not sure they all need to die, exactly, But it does stop them more or less permanently, doesn't it?"
Keep him talking, Cal...Just a little more time...
"But let me step back for a moment. I didn't mean to imply that you need help. Only that we all get farther when we travel together. For example, you say dirty cops have been ferreted out? I'm very interested to know who they were and what they were up to. The fact you were able to uncover their misdeeds and stop them alone is impressive."

"Is it ok to move him back to the vehicles to get him away from the crowd? We need to get some kind of a stretcher." Long gets up and goes over to the Sears across from Lord & Taylor and grabs a heavy blanket from the bedding department. We should be able to carry him in this. He apologizes to the cashier and says it's an emergency.

Sylwia herself mainly keeps watch out at this point being better at being defensive and protecting then really giving any support in the least to Gabe. She is worried about him but knows at least she hopes for now that he is in good hands. At this point though she does reactivate her altered form mainly out of not knowing what danger is present.

Alice says calmly to Tom "Stop cracking jokes until we get out of this. It's not helping and it's not funny." Alice nods at Avi, "Let me know when he's ready to be moved."

"If Titan can make hover something to use as a stretcher, I can finish on the move." Avi replied as he continued concentrating. "Put the blanket on it for some padding."
"NOBODY MOVE! ALL OF YOU, HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE THEM!" Demanded a voice coming through the crowd. A police officer appeared, his service weapon leveled towards the team. He was followed by three more, all with weapons drawn.
"Does anyone besides me feel like we just got set up?" Ashley asked, slowly raising her hands.
**********
Jury hung in the air, glaring at Paladin, " You mock me?" The bigger man hovered closer, until he was within arm's reach. " My carried out sentences are well documented, Federal Agent." He addressed Cal with a venomous tone that sounded like the title was spit rather than said. "But if you must know, it was in Minneapolis, several months ago."

"I could get sheet metal to make a stretcher, or a grocery cart." Tom responds before the cops show. Once they do, he looks at them, then to Avi. "Wait, aren't we law officer too? Are we going to have one of those pointless things about jurisdiction now?" He rolls his eyes. "Hate those."

Paladin holds his hands up. "No mocking intended - I was just not aware of what you did in Minneapolis."
Calvin is starting to worry - he's never faced someone this tough on his own before, and he'd rather have a team beside him if a fight was going to go down. Where is everyone? What's going on?
He nods reassuringly. "All I'm saying is I'd rather us be friends. If we can stop the evil-doers side-by-side, well, that's better than us pounding on each other."

At the demands for hands up Long drops the blanket and puts his hands up. He looks around at everyone else nodding that they should do the same. "I thought our costumes would be a little more recognized by now, at least by the local cops. We are the Sentinels of Liberty & Justice. I'm going to reach into my back pocket to get my I.D." Long turns around slowly to show his back and then just as slowly reaches for his pocket. If the cops allow it he will bring out the SL&J ID. "Our man here needs immediate attention. Claymore, Titan, get him back to HQ. Officer can you tell me who told you we were a threat?"

Alice raises her hands and plainly shows that she doesn't have a weapon. In a clear voice, she identifies herself and the department she works for, stating. "I have ID in my right pocket. I can get it." Alice does not make a move to reach for it, and will not do so until she is given permission to do so by one of the officers. While she could heal an injury from getting shot, she remembered how much it hurt and didn't want it to happen again.

Ashley looked at Isamu, " Grab a cart from that store for Titan."
Isamu nodded and took the cart where Gabe lay, "What are you going to do with this?"
The lead cop motioned for the others to lower weapons, and then visibly relaxed, "We got a 911 call about a couple metahumans fighting at the mall. What happened? Anything we can help with?"
*******
Jury looked at Paladin for a moment, then began to laugh. "We... I do not need your help, and it will not be pounding each other. It will be I hit you, you do not get back up. Now go while it is allowed, you have distracted me long enough." The behemoth snarled, then flew off, away from the mall.

"huh..the cops listened. Trope subverted." Tom raised an eyebrow in surprise as he took the cart and bent it into a stretcher. "And now we get him out of here."

In a low voice so that civilians won't panic, "Sylph and our injured man there spotted the leader of a mercenary/terrorist group that employs superpowers. He and an unknown number of his group are here in the mall. We don't know what they have planned but I guarantee it's not for the shopping. Can you have your officers cover all entrances including the service entrances and loading dock. Let us know if you spot anything." Then he gives the officer the frequency to the band-adio. "This can only be done this one time."
