"Me?" Masa said defensively "What makes you think they're here for me? They showed up the same time you did, old man."
Sunfire folded his arms. "Masa?"
"Okay, but I paid them back already. Every penny." Masa said, his hands up.
Yoshiro's eyes narrowed, "And where did you get the money?"
"I might have rolled one of their couriers." Masa shrugged. "How was I supposed to know it was their own guy And the money was marked?"
"You're an idiot." Yoshira said as the three sedans screehed to a halt and Yakuza soldiers began falling out. "Stand down boys. This one is mine."
The leader of the hit men, a contrary looking bald man with dragon tattoos on his head stepped forward, and replied in japanese "No good. Honor must be appeased. Turn him over, we have no quarrel with you or the ugly gaijin."

"Not a bad looking guy. How did you meet him?" Melissa asked, pulling out her commcard as it chirped, "Hey Clint, what's up?"
"Where is everyone? Just me, Jarvis and a very hungover Tabbycat here at the mansion." Hawkeye replied.
"Cap's.... inproving his people skills. Natasha was supposed to be waiting there for Simon to get in from the airport. Logan got Blink to port him to Tokyo for some RandR, and I brought the rest of the team out to Mountauk." Mel answered
"Improving... Holy crap, Cap's with a girl??? Wait, you went to the beach without us? Tell Blink to come get us, the fresh air will do Tabby some good." Clint said.
"Can't, she's surfing with Erik." Melissa replied.
"You suck." Clint scoffed. "Fine, enjoy your.... crap, Tab, no! You can't puke in... Gotta go!" The com went dead, causing Melissa to roar with laughter before looking at Gabby, "So, about this guy of yours?"
(Museum)
As Simon and Natasha watched the brewing fight beginning, several of the other skin heads began backing away, towards a rear exit.
Magneto had taken a seat, rubbing his chin in anticipation of what he thought would be an interesting fight
The massive brute stared down at Steve, having a good six inches and a hundred pounds on him, "You can walk away with no shame, or take the beating of your life." He smiled as he spoke with a soft german accent. holding his fists out like a boxer waiting to touch gloves. Each knuckle had been tattooed as well, spelling Sieg Heil across his two fists. Beyond him, the others began cheering on with shouts of encouragement to Himmel.

She entered the water paddling as one did to avoid the push of the wabas that send you back to the beach. Her basic technique was good but advanced tricks not so perfect. It was balance or agility..it was lack of practiced ease and subtle refinement.
She may have been a near olympic gymnast though it did show. As Morph might call it a lack of showmanship and flare..

"You misunderstand - I'm done talking to you, to your kind. You made your choice, and now, you're going to pay for it." Steve took a fighting stance, fists clenched. 1d20+7H|QEoLt4

“You paid the Yakuza back, with money you stole, from one of their couriers, with money that was already theirs. Bub, you make Deadpool look like Einstein.”
“Why is it always ugly? I think I miss being called shorty at times,” chuckles, claws still out, lights a stogie. “Stand back, we’ll handle Masa. He’s blood of blood. I’m sure you gentlemen can agree to let a clan take care of the mistakes one of their own makes?” Snuffs out the match. “If not, bub, we’ll have a bloody, messy problem.”

Simon moves to interpose himself between the retreating thugs and the back door. "Not trying to break a deal are you? We see who wins... that's the deal."

Gabby smirks. "She's never been able to hold her liquor. What a lightweight." Pulling out a flask, she takes a swig and adds, "I've been drinking her under the table for years." Grinning at the questions, she answers, "I met him on a double date with Tabitha and DoucheDevil. That was an awesome night, meeting a great guy, meeting celebrities AND I got to hit a guy with a sledgehammer!"

"Douche...," Melissa burst into laughter, then looked at the picture again. "Hey, I know him. He's a lawyer, right? Has a nickname Froggy, or something like that? They did some work for me before I joined the Avengers."
A shadow fell over the pair of them, just before something crashed into the sand behind them, showering Mel with sand. Behind her lay two hunky teens in a heap, the one on bottom holding a football. They got to their feet as Melissa sputtered and brushed herself off. "Sorry ladies." one said sheepishly, both of them with wandering eyes.
Erik paced Blink as they paddled out to the surfline. At the far end of the break were a few others, lined up waiting for the right wave while one had caught and was riding in gracefully. Erik had to raise his voice a bit to be heard, "Best break is down where they are, or we can stay down here if you want?"
The device on her wrist worked as Melissa had said, and was clearly watertight.

The big man smiled as he lowered his hands to a fighting stance, then snapped out a ham sized fist with a measuring jab meant for Cap's jaw.

"Just going for popcorn." One of the neonazis suggested as they began backing away.
A different alarm began to sound, in another section of the museum. Natasha scowled, "More of them? Seriously?" She looked at Simon, "I can watch them if you want to check that out? It sounds more like a localized security system than emergency alarms."
(Japan)
The speaker for the group stared at Logan for a long moment, then shook his head, "Honour demands the thief's hand be presented to Oyabun, but does not say who does the cutting." He paused a moment, "I would offer my blade, but you have plenty of your own." Behind him the others were not as brave, chattering between them as at least one had recognized Logan for who he was.
"I don't think so." Sunfire said.

Captain America’s counter was met by a wide eyed expression as the thunderous crack of knuckles on bone seemed to echo throughout the museum.
Himmel’s eyes rolled back before his body slumped lifelessly to a heap on the floor.
The was an eerie silence throughout as even the alarms stopped sounding for what seemed like an eternity.
“Marvellous.” Magneto broke the quiet, followed by a like chuckle.
Chaos suddenly erupted as the skinheads realized their champion was bested with a single punch, and they broke in every direction like rats from a sinking ship.1d20+9

"A hand presented to the Oyabun offers nothing but a dead limb. Now, a hand from one clan offering a way to save face to the other, is more profitable, and in turn, would make one's status increase in the Oyabun's eyes, no?"

Gabby grins at the laughter. "Yes, he's a lawyer. The best one ever, in my opinion." She rolls her name at the mention of the nickname. "It's Foggy, a lame ass nickname DoucheDevil gave him.
Seeing Mel hit with sand, Gabby rolls her eyes. "Apology accepted. Now move on, children.."

Simon nods. "On it."
Simon speeds off in the direction of the alarm. It'd be just our luck that the whole showdown with Cap is a diversion for others to rob the museum. But that's just paranoia. They'd have had to know cap would be here in advance for that kind of planning.

The skinheads froze as Steve bellowed, though the shadow of he tyrannosaur skeleton returning to it's display may have helped deter any further activity.
"Umm, Steve...," Natasha said lowly nodding beyond him.
Magneto had gotten to his feet and was walking away towards another exit. "Thank you for the entertainment, but I think I should depart to save you headaches with the authorities. I will be in touch once I find our..... friend."
"We can't let him leave, can we?" Natasha asked, hesitantly . As she did, she handed Steve her oversized pack, the top open to reveal it held his shield. " What friend?"
********
The alarms stopped before Simon found where they were coming from, even though he had gotten to the far end of the museum fairly quickly. There was no signs of anything amiss, until a sound behind a kiosk grabbed his attention. Someone was trying to reposition their hiding spot.
Realizing they were caught, a very attractive and terrified woman whimpered, "Please don't hurt me. I was trying to find a way out and got turned around running when that... that skeleton thing....," she gulped hard, "wait. You aren't police! That means you're one of them!" She began shuffling away on all fours.

(Beach)
The young men looked at each other , a bit surprised as Gabby blew them off so quickly. "Uh, okay then..., sorry ladies." They backed off down the beach.
Mel watched them go, then looked over at Gabby in surprise, "Umm, I know you're seeing someone, but that was a bit cold girl.." She turned and watched the young men departing, peeking out over her shades for a better look. "They might have wanted us to play."
****************
(Japan)
The leader of the Yakuza squad smiled lightly, then slow clapped. "You remember something of our ways. Probably more than both of your companions. We also know who you are, Wolverine, and I want no quarrel with you and your temper. What do you propose?"
"And what about me?" Sunfire said, sounding miffed about being snubbed.
The Yakuza lieutenant shrugged, "You are no challenge, we brought super soakers." Then smiled widely .
Behind Logan and Yoshira, Masa burst into laughter.

"Even with Simon, I doubt we could stop him without causing more harm than good. Besides, we've struck a deal and we managed to avoid any bloodshed tonight. Take the win." Steve responded, taking the pack.
"Gentlemen, this way - I'm sure my colleague will introduce you to the boys in blue." Steve gestured towards Natasha.
