Simon looks quizzically at Natasha. "What'd I do THIS time? And when HASN'T he been pissed at me?"

Nods. "There are times to be a smart ass. This isn't one of them. Let's go, Masa-san. You drive."

Steve scratched the back of his head. "I...got lost looking for you." He rolled his eyes. "I...may have tripped over a broom. I'm glad you're OK. Sorry this date night didn't turn out as expected."

"Right, not a shark..." she mutters looking to the other surfers, "I'd get out the water and out here before the Military shows up. They may not be so forgiving when a metahuman shark the size of a house shows up. We need to get out the water as well. This gate should get you to the shore if you want a quick trip to shore." Once the other surfers are safe Blink looks for her fellow Avengers.
"You saw that right?" the woman adds,"Also will there be a military response or are we on our own?" she added assessing the situation taking any actions to protect herself or others as needed.

Gabby looks at Melissa like she's a bit slow. "NPC's. You know, the extras who don't really matter in the game, but the GM throws them in harms way so we have something to do?" However as she gets to the water, Gabby asks, "My player doesn't know who Orka is so that means I don't know either until she gets around to looking him on up on the internet." Shrugging she adds, "Do you have Hulk or Thor on speed dial 'cause I sure odn't."

(Montauk)'
"Tell your player Orka is bad news. He's an Atlantean that was genetically modified by Roxxon. If he wants a fight, we'll have our hands full." Melissa replied, grabbing her cell phone from her bag next to her towel and began typing, "No, Bruce is MIA again and Thor is likely still on Asgard, so have to rely on the calvary. How is Tabby in a fight when she's hung over?"
Eric looked over at Blink as he began paddling towards the shoreline, "I doubt anyone from the military is going to show. This is firing range. Other than the odd MP patrol, the place is deserted unless there is testing going on. I've tangled with him before and he's a hand...!" Eric 'was interrupted as another figure surfaced, looked at them and dove under again. Eric said nothing as he looked at Blink. Orka might have been unfamiliar, but she recognized Tiger Shark
(City)
"Simon, you called him Cap in front of Magneto and a room full of skinheads while he was out of uniform." Natasha sighed as she explained. "Just because you and Tony don't care if the world knows who you are, some of us do, especially when on a date." Her brow furrowed as she pulled out her phone as it began to chime an incoming text. Another sigh escaped her as she held it for Simon to read...
Atlantean trouble out at secret beach. Not confirmed but looks like Orka
"Seriously? Why can't we get a break?" She sighed, and pulled out her identicard, " I got the text. Pick me and Wonderman up by the Natural History Museum."
"Ohhkay..., I thought you were with ... Steve?" Clint replied, confused
"We'll try to find him, but he may be sitting this one out." Natasha replied.
"Right, on our way in five." Clint replied.
*****
"Well, it certainly was interesting." Felicia said with a smile. "I can't say I've ever..."'
She stopped as she was interrupted by Steve's pocket vibrating as his Identicard on mute picked up the exchange between Natasha and Clint. "I thought you said you don't have cellphone?" She asked with an arched brow.
(Japan)
The rest of the drive was relatively peaceful as Masa. He stopped in front of a familiar house, with a lone figure in a white silken gown stood on the front step. He face held a wide smile as she watched them arrive. Masa looked back, "There you go, careful you don't break a hip or something." He chuckled as he looked back.
At the same time, his cell phone chirped as it received Melissa's blanket text.

"I don't. It's a pager. I'm...uh, old-school with these things, I guess." Steve grinned. "Only a few people have this number - including some possible clients. Can you give me a sec?"

Simon's face reddens. "Well... I... That was an accident." He sighs, his shoulders slump. "I'll apologize next time I see him."
When he sees the message about Orka, he squares his shoulders again, thinking to himself. You're an actor Simon. So act like an Avenger.
"Huh. Orka. Don't think I've ever faced him. Big, strong guy, not that smart? Are we assuming he's being directed by someone else then?"

Gabby nods at Melissa, "Yeah, I know that now, thanks. My player finally got around to looking him up. Plus the GM sent her a link." Gabby shrugs, "How do we know he wants a fight? Maybe he wanted to spend a day hanging out at the beach like we did? How about we try talking to him first before we sic everyone on him?"

"Keep it up, smart ass," he chuckles. Smiles, looking up at Mariko, guard relaxed, face furrows hearing his cell phone vibrate. Checking the text, replies, 'Am I really needed?'

The Big guy I don't recognize. That one we just saw I know. Tigershark." She holds out her hand to Eric, "We should get out of the water...fast. I know several of his dimensional and alternate selves are meat eaters like his namesake." Once he took she teleports both of them to the shore near her allies. Once on shore and near the other Avengers she spoke up. (Should she be able to teleport to the shore in time before the fight..)
"We also have Tigershark in the water," she adds accessing quickly. Military not showing up was good. It would mean fewer people in the way. It also meant Tigershark and his friend might be here for a military target. A fire test fire site like this could mean something is planned for today the team did not know about. Hopefully, nothing atomic...1d20·1d20·1d100

Felicia sighed, but nodded, “Go ahead. Duty calls I’m guessing?” She added with a bit of a smirk, clearly not knowing how close to the truth she was.
“Accident or not, he’s not happy with you.” Natasha replied with a shrug. Veering away from the police barricades holding back a growing number of onlookers, “Orka’s just like you said, but he’s more likely to work with someone than have someone pull his strings. We better keeps on our toes.”
She pulled out her identicard and tapped a message to Cap
Quinjet inbound. You sitting this one out or want us to wait?
*****
A reply came back to Logan’s question,
Have fun. Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do
Considering Songbird’s checkered past, it was clearly a joke.
“You only check that for one reason. You cannot stay, can you?” Mariko asked, her head tilting as she made no attempt to hide her disappointment.
*******
Clarice was able to teleport herself and Alex ashore to Gabby and Melissa. Mel scowled at Blink’s news, “Tigershark too? This is going to be lots of fun.” She considered Gabby’s idea, “You want to stall them? The others are on the way. Why not. Gabby, give it a try, the rest of us feign we’re just locals getting some beach time.”
At the same time, the massive figure broke the surface along the surf line and began to trudge ashore, a snort blowing water from his blowhole on top of his head
There was no sign of Tigershark.

"Just a quick check in." Steve answered as he got out of the car. He got out of Felicia's line of sight in order to tap out. "I'll be there when I can. Keep me updated."
He returned to Felicia. "At least let me give you a ride home...my Bike is around here." He lead her to his motorcycle.

Suitably chastened, Simon sits back for the duration of the ride. I'm not having such a great first day back am I?

Texts back, Bub, I'm scant feet away from Mariko. Right now, not the time to be Spidey classed.
Sighs, showing her the mass text. "Given I've lost you once, I am sorely tempted to let them fight their own battles. Rain check, redeemable immediately after I handle this? Even Galactus wouldn't keep me away afterwards."
