Let Loose the Dogs of War!
Plans had been made, maps studied, the situation read as best it could be. There was no more time for talk. The Mothership would be leaving by the next day. If the aliens who had stolen this world were not defeated now, it wasn't likely they ever would be.

But these aliens had never faced people with the kinds of powers that the Avengers possessed. The paltry number of defenders the planet Earth had had when they had arrived had died easily. And this world possessed no Inhumans, no Eternals, no Deviants. No one would or could fight back on the scale needed.

But the time of domination was over.

With Mac keeping the guards off his back, Steve jabs the data-spike into the computer, uploading a particularly nasty virus into the system.

A voice, speaking Malacandran, broadcast over the ship's internal speakers. Steve didn't understand the language enough to know the specifics, but he knew what it should be.

He had just set the ship to self-destruct.

"Mac! Time to beat feet!"

With Mac's speed, making their way out wasn't difficult. Malacandrans were moving everywhere, panicking, but none were in the mood to even try and deal with the two Earthmen.

Kal had gotten the others off the ship, which left the shuttle for them.

It was just in time to watch the mothership explode.

Steve, watching, looked emotionless. The only sign of anything he might be feeling was the clenching and unclenching of his hands.

	Mac watches silently. But he remembers Steve's a New York superhero born and bred. He's obviously had to go through a lot here, but this might be getting to him. Mac's not sure. "It got the job done, man," he mutters in an attempt to be reassuring. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Whatever he's feeling about what he's done, Steve pushed it down. It was war. It was to save the entire planet. It had to be done. "It had to happen," was all he said. (Reply to this)(Parent)
