Tabitha paused as her teammates stepped up in Spiderman's defense. " Fine, I'll stand down." She reverted back to normal, but glared at Spidey. " Fine, he's not a traitor here yet, but if he makes fun of my parents again, I'll teach him a game from back home. Pull the legs off the spider."
Hawkeye shook his head, and looked at Cap again," You always make such interesting friends. Now what's this about Creed. You do mean Sabertooth, right?"

"Different universe. This one is a good guy. Sort of. He's an ally, that's all that matters for now." Cap answers Hawkeye. "We can use the Quinjet to look for him over the city."

"A more evil Omega Red took him." Gambit added. "So, we're all interested in him, too."

"So let me get this straight... we have the Prensence on the loose, a Cap impersonator attacking cops and Omega Red kidnapping Sabertooth? Oh yeah, and Apocalypse invading the city. No problem with X-men on our side, they like odds like that." Hawkeye rolled his eyes.
"I'm glad you get smarter with age." Tabitha replied.
From his higher angle, something further down the tunnel grabbed Spiderman's attention. amongst the abandoned cars, an armored truck with military marking was overturned amongst a debris field.

"Apocalypse isn't even pulling the strings." Gambit says. "He's working for Lady Mandarin. Now, they be the odds X-men like."

All the names flying around just serves to remind Tally she knows next to nothing. As such she waits until spoken too and just does her best to keep track.

Spider-Man replies to Gambit with "This coming from the Cajun who wears fuchsia under a trenchcoat? Please, you're gonna make me... Hold on. Guys, look down the tunnel. There's a military truck upside down... That's never a good sign. Cap?"

Cap takes a glance. "Good catch, Web-Slinger. Let's check this out." He moves towards the vehicle slowly.

Spider-Man leaps down from his web and walks next to Tally. He turns to her and says "Did you hear that? 'Good catch, Web-Slinger'... Do you think he likes me? Oh. Em. Gee." followed by a sigh, while walking in a manner that could only be described as 'giddy schoolgirl'.

"And next he'll pat you on the head and say 'good boy, now fetch' " Tabitha snarked and quickened her pace so she was near Cap's lead.
" Ouch." Hawkeye winced at Tabitha's remark. " Oh Cap, I don't suppose you thought to bring a geiger counter to track The Presence, or at least warn us if he's close."
As the got closer, it was obvious it had been a military policeconvoy of some sort. The lead Hummer had been seemingly melted into the pavement, and the trailer had been blown to peices. The armored car style vehicle was overturned, and was literally torn apart by something sharp. But strangely, no bodies were left.

"Strange. No bodies are left." Gambit says. "Which military did the vehicles belong to?"

"Looks like regular MP transport to me, Gambit." Hawkeye replied, an arrow resting in his bow as he looked at the melted vehicle. " This could have been The Presence, his radiation would be hot enough to melt steel like this."
"Aura," Tabby said," You absorb energy as part of your powers, right? Does that include radiation?"

Captain America looks about. "I agree Hawkeye, We should get the geiger counter out of the Quinjet, see if we can track for any radiation signatures."

"So far as I know yes. At least I have not found a source of energy of energy I can not work with, but I also copy said source of energy!"

Hawkeye looked at the others, " And since I'm the only other person who knows where it is, I guess I'll be right back." He turned and started off back up the tunnel.
" I'll go with him, just in case." Tabitha said, following the archer. " You guys can figure out what could rend an armored car like that."
