Hartley, Texas
The small town of Hartley, Texas was not much more than a wide spot in the road that was situated about an hour northwest of Amarillo. The town was small and the surrounding area consisted of mostly ranches and farms and nothing special ever happened in Hartely.

Until a meteorite burned across the west Texas night sky and landed just outside the town on property belonging to one Martin Reynolds. Martin promptly hauled the meteor into town in his pickup. The townspeople all gathered around to see the hunk of space debris that had crashed to Earth.

The strange space rock was put in the center of town and over the next few days it was the center of the talk of the town and the focus of their attention.

One was wrapped up in the foam which quickly hardened to cement. It struggled to get free.

The one Buck tossed smashed into another one and the two went crashing into a car.

Tony's opponent struggled to get free of the fencing.

Mac sent one stumbling backward into another. The two fell to the ground but were quickly getting back up.

One that Orlen hit with a blast of magical energy fell to the ground.

Kal's was struggling to get out of the impromptu restraints but wasn't have any success.

The gas went off and the ones near it started coughing and backed up.

"That's what teammates are for." Buck responds to the thanks, tossing a flare grenade to try and blind a couple to help set them up for others.

"If this got the whole town, if we don't find a way to reverse this, could be a very long fight. Orlen, Kal, any better luck on determining how likely we are to get infected? And any way to reverse this?"

Mac shuts his eyes for the grenade and then goes after them to put them all down.

Dammit. She really didn't want to do this. But there were so many of them, she had to keep fighting, keep moving.

Toni electrified the fence.

Nicolai was glad to see the cerement was working at last for now. But he did have too many more of those grenades left.

He threw an electrified bola at another one of those things.

Frances fired a line around a few's legs, the weighted end circling and wrapping around their knees . One took a step forward to squish the intruding Avengers and all of them fell down instead with a loud thud. "Like big... lumpy dominoes."

"I'm going to search the town and see if there's anyone not infected or changed," she said and flew off to find anyone not a monster. She expanded her mind outward hoping to find anyone with coherent thought patterns.

Huh... tripped a bunch of them and... Buck gets an idea.

"Frances, how much cabling do you have, and is it conductive? Toni, depending on her answer, I think I have a plan." Buck calls, engaging a couple to keep them distracted, focusing on defense and annoyance for now.

He shot another small voltage at one, just enough to knock it out but not kill it. "Not sure how this infection works I'll need a sample and time to do some chants if you guys can buy me the time!"

hit with a stop sighn on his back that caused him to fall. He shot the creature and floated up to a roof to gather himself. "As for for us I put a spell around all of us that will keep us from getting infected we got about another four maybe five hours tops before I have to redo the spell." He held his head trying to shake that dizzy throbbing feeling.

The monsters are temporarily blinded and it gave the Avengers a much needed opening.

Mac knocked more to the ground and the ones Frances tied up all fell as well. The one with the fence around him dropped to the ground and was suffering from spasms. The one Nicolai hit with the electrified bola fell to the ground and was suffering from spasms. The one Orlen hit fell to the ground and was knocked out.

"Uh," Frances pawed at her quiver and squinted to eyeball the length left. "Twenty-five yards give or take after that, and yeah, carbon nano-fibers can be decently conductive. Whatcha need, Buckminister?" Orlen had retreated to a rooftop after, but she held out going for higher ground to cover for Buck's plan. "Mr. Wizard just got pinged hard, there's some fight in these guys still."

"All the cabling, fences, all of that is just slowdown measures... Orlen and Kal, back off much as you can and do what you're doing.

Everyone else, get under cover while they're blinded. I'm going to draw some attention and try and group them up.

Soon as I do, use what's on the field - fences, wiring, and Hawkeye's cable arrows to just get as many as you can in contact with something conductive - Toni - when they're all tangled up, light the whole thing up."

He trusts the others to get into hiding, then darts out into the field, throwing down tear gas to make sure they're extra upset, and make sure they're not seeing entirely clearly - give him some edge in hand to hand, anyway.

Toni rose a little into the air.

"You got it, Buck."

Kal flew quickly through the town as she searched for any mind that wasn't so changed. She caught a glimmer of human thought and flew faster in an effort to track it down.

He shook his head and snapped out of it. "I'm cool Arwen Thanks for the-" He saw a creature try to jump her but shot it full on. "Help." he smiled then winked at her. "You owe me dinner for that!" He took to the skies giving many of the teammates cover shooting bolts of energy below him keeping to the skies.

Frances had her orders and grabbed her cabled arrows, threading them through legs and under arms. "You just keep them away for another few minutes, Gandalf." The last of cable came off the spool and she tied it to some wrecked fence to ensure contact and conduction "It's all you, Toni!" she shouted and ran like hell for cover herself.

Buck has been doing his best, at risk to himself, to draw as many of the creates as he could into a tight group for the people with the conducting substances. As soon as he hears the shout, he throws himself as far clear as he can.

The crackle of electricity, the pulse of the electromagnetic fields of the Earth in her ears, the surge of power her body generated... Toni was outmatched by many mutants or other super-heroes out there, but when it came to the Avengers, she was proud of the contributions she could make, being one of the bigger guns on the team.

In this moment, however, she was contented by the surging of her power and the feel of the electricity. She built up a charge, electricity swirling around her...

And then she let loose.

Kal followed the mental signature as best as she could. It got stronger and she flew faster. Once she had a good lock on it, she probed deeper trying to determine what happened in this town.

The monsters were wrapped up by the cable and when the electricity coursed through it they stopped in their tracks and started convulsing. They all fell to the ground.

Unfortunately they weren't the only residents of the town. Other altered townspeople heard the commotion and started to make their way toward Main St.

Buck ducks for an alley to speak into comms. "Worked like a charm, but we need to buy more time. Oren, find Kal, help with whatever she's up to. Hawk, Nic, we'll lead them off and buy time. Gather up the cabling and reload soon as the field is clear, since we're a little short on area stuns. Toni, big light show thirty yards to my eight. Everyone else, with me, head for the light show she tosses up. We need to run them around a bit and buy time - keep them off of the people resetting the cable arrows."

He drops a couple smoke bombs to give the people staying in this area some cover from the streets nearest, and heads for a parked car, bouncing off it, to an awning, and up to the second story of a two story building, before waving his arms and trying to get monster attention before bolting down the street.

Nicolai rolled his eyes at the Nic before draw his gun. Taking some careful fast aim as he rang he shot at the nearby cars to set off the alarms to draw the big guys attention.
