Cap motions for the two of them to get behind the cafeteria counter and examine who was coming this way.

As they ducked out of sight, another pair of heavy coated figures silently crossed the cafeteria and outside.
Once the door closed, Castle stood up, "They must have a pile of those patrols. Let's try that way." He suggested before leading Cap to the other door leaving the cafeteria.
It led to a small empty corridor, that led to an elevator door. There were no other doors, and the elevator had only a down button.
Frank scowled, "We go this way and they know we're coming. Or we go past wherever the patrol bots stage. One things for sure, someone has put a ton of time and resources to set up this place. Wonder how long it's flown under our radar?"

"Too long. So, either we split up - I'll take that route and draw attention, or we both try to go past." Cap readied one of the grenades. "Your recommendation, Captain Castle?" Cap again emphasized the man's name and rank; Steve knew that it would be better to approach the soldier and the man beneath it, as opposed to the force of nature the Punisher had become.

"Past we go then. You're not having all the fun without me." Castle replied with a coy smirk. "Hoods up, and we walk with purpose, the same as they seem to move. Straight through like we're just one of their patrols. That doesn't work, you go left, I'll take the right and we let everyone know we're here." The Punisher smirked, almost hinting he would prefer that option.

Cap nodded as he lead the two of them forward. His eyes were alert for any sign of trouble, but he suspect that he was already walking into the belly of the beast.

There were six other hooded figures in the room as they passed through, but they paid little attention to the duo. All six were backed into a kiosk of sorts, with a pale blue light emanating from them. There were several more kiosks, but the empty ones were not illuminated. It was only at the last moment did one of them turn to look at the pair just as Castle pushed open the next door.
Once on the other side, Castle pulled a grenade and removed the pin before jamming it up against the back of the door, "Just in case." He smirked.
"I believe you gentlemen are lost." Came an unfamiliar voice over a hidden speaker. "I would suggest you take your toy and depart, and my sentries will allow you safe passage. Failure to comply shall lead youto your destruction."
"Recognize the voice?" The Punisher asked, before a silenced pistol took out the camera above the door.

"Don't know the singer, but I've heard the tune before." The Sentinel of Liberty responded. "Never cared for it. So let's be quick."

“No matter how many times they remake it, I never liked that song either.” Frank replied with a slight smirk. “Let’s see if we can find a tune a little more to our liking. As they started down the corridor, the door at the far end of the long corridor opened to the left. From inside came the unmistakable sound of treads grinding on the steel plate floor
“They have a tank indoors?” The Punisher said in disbelief.
In actuality, it was a tank only four feet in length, that served as the lower body half of a robot. The upper half was humanoid minus a head and each arm ended in belt fed machine guns it was bringing to bear.
Frank immediately flung a grenade at the robot, but it was immediately picked off by heavy gunfire.

"I'll cover you, soldier." Cap rushed into the breach, shield ready to deflect the bullets to give the Punisher the opening he needed.

As he charged, Captain America could hear and feel the heavy thunderstorm of lead ricocheting off his shield.
"Stay High!" Could barely be heard over the staccato from behind before a glimpse of black uniform passed him low to the ground. The Punisher slid at what seemed like an unbelievable rate, and went directly between the tankbot's treads. One gunarm tried to follow, but Frank somehow was too fast. He popped up behind the robot and slapped something on it's back before shouting, "Clear!" and dove to use the tank's treads as cover.
The robot began to swivel it's torso, trying to bring it's guns to bear but Frank was too close "3, 2,.

Reflexes born of a thousand battles, and muscles to rival the greatest of Olympic athletes, the Sentinel of Liberty bounded forward, using his shield to cover himself and Frank. "COVER!"

"..1" Frank thumbed a small detonator, sending a signal to the explosive he had placed. The shaped charge meant for breaching walls sent a directed blast along the spine of the robot tore through the thinner rear shield plate and showered the area with fragments of the robot as it stopped firing.
Between being pressed up against the treads and Steve's shield, the pair were shielded from the debris. Looking up at Cap on top of him the Punisher had a serious look on his face as he spoke. "Never pictured you a cuddler."

"Banter's not your strong suit, Captain Castle. Let's keep moving towards our target. I'll take point." He head forward, shield out front.

"Obviously not your's either, Captain." The Punisher replied, getting to his feet. "I don't recognize the design. Do you?"
Beyond the doors was a pair of freight elevators down. "No way we are taking that." He said, smashing a camera that watched the elevator entrance
There did not seem to be any other options when Franks asked, "climb or ride down?"

"No. I don't recognize it." Cap answered as they moved forward. When they came to the elevators, he paused for a moment, considering the options.
"Neither." Cap took a moment to pry the elevator doors open to the empty shaft. "Did something like this on the Helicarrier a while back. What is the expression you Marines use?" He took his shield and laid it on the edge of the shaft. "Semper Fi?"
He stood on the shield and offered his hand to Frank. "Surf's up."
