Micelli guided the Quinjet in low and touched down out of direct view of the Helicarrier to set in a depression behind one side of the furrow the crashing vessel had tilled up. He looked at Cap," I'll keep just enough power on to keep us from freezing up and the radio set to receive just in case."
Piotr looked at Gambit and motioned towards the boarding hatch. " I hope your cajun hotheadedness will keep you warm." He smiled as he took on his metallic form.

Cap nods at Micelli. "Alright Agent. If we're not back in 2 hours, you make a climb and notify Black Widow. Until then, god bless." as he shakes hands with the agent, and then climbs out. "Colossus, you take point. gambit, take the right flank, I'll take the left." This veteran of a thousand battles puts his shield over his left arm. "We're burning daylight gentlemen, and we've got friends inside. Let's move."

Gambit nods, hoping off, lighting a cigarette. "We each keep warm in our own ways, mon ami." He says.
"How big a flank am I makin'?" He asks Captain America. Meanwhile, he tests the ground to make sure it's not too soft.

The threesome seem to be unnoticed as they head towards the carrier. They cover the ground quickly, and soon reach the helicarrier, which seemed to be in good shape considering it had crashed. Colossus grabbed an access port and ripped the cover off to allow access. " As good a door as any."

"Tell me, if the ship wasn't already damaged, would you have waited for the Captain or myself to open it for you?" Gambit asks, stomping out the cigarette on the ground before entering.
Have a good lesson here, and no Professor to see it. He thinks, as he looks around, bo staff (which was probably collapsable; that seems to be the trend these days) at the ready.

Once inside, Cap takes the lead, as his familiarity with the layout of the Helicarrier is an asset. He looks for a control panel, computer, or comms device.
(12+2 on Perception)

" A drop in the bucket compared to what has already been done." Colossus replied with a smirk as he brought up the rear. Cap found a technician's station after rounding a corner. The problem was that it was in use. Both a SHIELD agent and one of the AIM insurgents were at the terminal. Neither was speaking, but they were both focused on the terminal screen. So much so that they didn't acknowledge the sounds of movement behind them.

Cap signals for Gambit to hang back and for Colossus to come forward as he prowls to teh AIM member and pins him against the wall
(30% to prowl - pass, and 9+6 to strike to pin)
"AIM is all about intelligence, which is handy, because I need some information."

Colossus grabbed the SHIELD agent and pulled him aside as the AIM trooper just glared at Cap. But his eyes we're right. Something about hinted something wasn't right about the AIM trooper. His voice seemed to hiss as he replied," You are not in her plans. Why have you come?"

"Her plans? I think you need to start talking, or my big friend here will become...irritated." Cap looks straight on at the AIM agent
(73% to trust/intimidate - pass)

The AIM trooper seemed to shirk back a bit, then composed himself and allowed a sort of hiss to precede his reply. " You're threats mean nothing to us. You cannot stop us, human."
Beside him, the SHIELD agent turned on Colossus, going for his eyes. Despite his transformed state, he let out a cry of suprise, releasing the agent as he instinctively covered his eyes to protect them.
During the commotion, Gambit noticed there were other SHIELD and AIM troopers trying to approach unnoticed.

Cap looks at the SHIELD agent. "Stand down, soldier. That's an order. SHIELD Authorization 43-Alpha-Tango-Charlie-745. Callsign: Boy Scout"
I never did like the callsign Nick gave me. What is wrong with these SHIELD Agents? Mind Control? Out of control LMDs? I need to get to the bottom of this fast.

The SHIELD agent paused for a moment as the sequence sinks in. But instead of complying, he went for his sidearm with a viscious grin, and started to point it towards Gambit.
" Remy, look out!" Piotr shouted as he jumped in the way to block the laser blast, causing it to ricochet off into the computer terminal.

"I tink dis is all getting out of hand, non?" Gambit asks Colossus.
First he amplifies the damage the staff can do. (+1d6)
Then With a quick swip of the staff, he conks the sneakers on the head (strike: 9+7=16, damage: 7+4=11 SDC), in one threatening blow, and then points the staff at the SHIELD agent. "Now, mon ami, don't make this any harder on yourself." He warns.

This veteran of a thousand battle moves with all the instinct and speed that his training and experience have granted him as he throws the errant AIM interlopper into a crowd of his fellows. (11+6 to strike)
