Anya stood at the corner across from the Thunderbolts HQ waiting for the light to change and the crosswalk signal to come on. She held a paper bag that contained a few containers of Indian food in it since she worked through dinner. A few hours in the lab and Martin's laptop had been modified in order for him to be able to use it. Now it was time to eat and get back to the dozen things she had to read for Ren Tech. After calling her parents and wishing them a happy anniversary and see how they liked her gift. They had been married for three years. Who would have thunk it?

The light changed and Anya crossed Hampshire street. She reached the other side and reached for the door handle of the entrance to the renovated firehouse that served as the TBotls HQ. The blow she didn't see coming hit her on the back of the head and blackness enveloped her.

A large man caught the body before it fell to the ground and picked her up as if she were nothing more than a doll. He put her over his shoulder and walked off into the night.

The next day a picture and a note was delivered to Xavier's Institute For Higher Learning addressed to Misha Romanov.

	"I think she'll live," Misha said once they were out of earshot. "Mom'll just see for herself that Anya's fine and Stark's fixing her nanites." He put a hand on Toni's shoulder for balance. "Besides, I don't think I could've stayed on my feet much longer." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Toni helped Misha steady himself. "Yeah," she agreed. "She'll be fine. But you're about ready to pass out yourself." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Shhh, it's a secret. I got a reputation to uphold," he joked. "I need food to finish healing. Had to check on her and she needs to believe I'm invincible." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Toni drew a finger across her lips. "My lips are sealed. She'll never know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-02-28 04:00 pm UTC (link)
	He laughed. "Uh huh. The two of you are as thick as thieves and twice as dangerous. You can report that I'll be just fine. Clearing the rest of the base wasn't as easy as it sounded." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Toni laughed a little. "Hey, a girl does get to keep some secrets." She nodded. "You get most of them out okay?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

His smile disappeared. "Most. A few didn't make it. I'm hoping the ones that couldn't be accounted for escaped. Dad is trying to track the escapees to make sure they're all right. He's supposed to be working with SHIELD on it, but I'm pretty sure he's trying to get to them first."

"I offered to go with him," the smile made a brief appearance, "but for now I'm no good to anybody. And he's kinda mad at me for ditching my security."

	"Well, you can take care of yourself," Toni said. She shook her head. "I know I saw some of them already out when we were lifting off, but... Well. Hope for the best." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"You mind if we stop at the deli down the block before we have lunch?" He didn't wait for an answer, just turned her in that direction with him. "There were a lot of them for what was supposed to be a small operation. I've been reading up on Weapon X files since the last time. The reports always make them look small and covert. I'm wondering if there really are that many rogue mutants out there and what can be done to reach them first."

	Toni let herself be lead along. "You're the X-Man," she said. "Don't you guys have some big machine for keeping track of things like that?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-03-05 01:45 am UTC (link)
	"The big machine can't be so great if so many were that far under the radar. I didn't think that mutants were breeding like rabbits." He looked across the street at the passing foot traffic. "It's becoming us against them, but who 'us' and 'them' are changes with the wind." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Toni shook her head. "Tell me about it. I get entirely too much hate mail since I got outed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2012-03-05 02:41 am UTC (link)
	"I hope you burn it. There's nothing in the world wrong with you, mutant or otherwise." He put an arm around her shoulders and squeezed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Toni managed a grin. "Let's just say I've had many a bonfire." "Thanks, Misha." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The smell of outrage in the air," he teased. "I admire the way you deal with it, and Anya." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	toni_rhodes 2012-03-09 12:24 am UTC (link)
	Toni laughed. "Hey, Stark wrangling is the easy part of the job. The trick is to be so outraged at any of her stupid ideas that she compromises and gets it to the level you really want." (Reply to this)(Parent)
