With Great Power Comes... Shiny Faux Gold Belts, pt. 1
The Exiles disappear from the asteroid in the midst of massed armadas after the fight with Thanos, down two of their number. After the grandeur of space and sweeping cosmic nature of their last mission, its kind of a shock to the system to end up in a dusty parking lot outside a massive arena. Currently the place is empty, though signboards flash up some of the current events planned to take place there in the near future.
Just as pressing, of course, there's a couple new faces in their midst.

	"Uhm... I'd rather avoid that too. Maybe Tasha can negotiate that in our contract... make sure we have stuff we can fight in?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Well, There isn' any way I can be of help with the wrestling, but we'd better start thinking about what shenanigans the Tallus might be worried about." Kev starts to look worried himself. "I mean, there's some pretty nasty possibilities for what kind of shady stuff could go on with fighting-type entertainment. There's all the regular ways it can be shady, and then there's... not so regular ways. I mean... anybody here ever had to deal with the Wildways Studio? And that big fat slug thing running it?" Kev shivered, just remembering the pictures, even if the name temporarily escaped him among the voices in his head.

	Dane listens intently to the information being provided, trying to get a clearer picture of what will be needed for whoever's going to infiltrate this place. An idea comes to him as he sits back. "Does anyone think this place will need more guards? Perhaps a couple of us can get in that way as well?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Not a bad idea at all, Dane. I think the girls are going to be very busy, so it'll be up to you, Lester and Kev to figure out what's going on that we're missing. Tasha can play liason between the two groups. That's a good idea Kev - but like you said, there's /lots/ of ways this could be shady. Criminals using the UCWF as cover, covering up illegal mutant growth hormone, fixed matches if there's gambling allowed on this... or even if there isn't. You're going to have to be ready for anything. But trying to get one or two people in as extra security isn't a bad thought at all. Oh, and Tasha, Kev... between you guys, anyone know how to rig up ear bud communicators? We used to have them when Spider was with us, and he was able to rig up all sorts of futuristic stuff. They came in really handy."

	Kev listens and nods. "Happy to help if they need any field adjusting." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Ok, so that's next on the agenda. There's an event tonight apparently, and we don't know how long they'll be in town for. I wish we could afford to sleep for a couple days first, but we should get moving. The girls can go in first, give us thirty minutes or so, the boys can use the time to plan. Dane can try and get a job as event security, the other two... well, best you figure it out. We don't want everyone associated with each other right off though. Anything else before we get moving on our end?"
