The Battle of Olympus
The trail eventually led the Avengers, Future Foundation and the Defenders to the other dimensional realm that served as the home of the Greek gods. They traveled to a few realms that were home to other gods only to find them destroyed and in ruins. Olympus wasn't in ruins, but it was under attack. Battle raged all around and the skies thundered and were lit up by lightning bolts.

Ophois was patient. He could wait until the smoke cleared a bit. He moved about, not worrying about making a sound. No one would be able to hear him anyway.

He pulled out a dagger and went in search of his prey.

Injured and outclassed, Buck gets creative.

With cover from the smoke, and sure he's being looked for, he goes deep into his utility belt, and gets out some paint pellets. Usually used for paintball, they're sometimes useful for marking trails - and he keeps them on hand to let him mark shapeshifters, or guys like... well, this guy.

He rolls them out on the ground around him before the smoke clears, then stands to draw attention away from the ground, wielding Grog's lance and waiting for a pellet to break and bright colored footprints to appear on the ground.

Ophois wasn't going to play these games. He teleported to a spot outside of the smoke and waited.

For the moment, Buck is content with that. He's not sure how Ophois noticed what he was doing in the smoke when he now appears to be a perfectly open target... but he's not objecting to not being attacked either.

As the smoke starts to clear, he starts assessing the rest of the situation to see if he can aid in directing anyone else's attention.

Ophios created a few illusion doubles of himself and spread them out. When the guys comes out of the smoke he won't know which one was the real one.

Ok, time for an acting job. Buck starts turning warily, looking from double to double. He fires the lance at once of them, accomplishing nothing.

Even dropping his goggles down doesn't help - they are all visually the same, even in heat imaging... and for all he knows, none of these guys is the real god.

His real reason for the goggles is to hide his eyes. While blasting illusions now and then and looking like he's keeping his attention up, its really to try and prevent Ophois from noticing the paint pellets, waiting for the real guy, illusory, invisible or not, to step on one. Though he can't tell the illusions from the real thing, Buck is betting that they won't suddenly start leaving painted footprints.

He's outclassed, and he knows it. But he's hoping some trickery might at least keep him alive, and let him buy some more time.

The real Ophois was still invisible and waiting for the perfect moment to strike. He circled around behind Buck striking out with the dagger. He didn't notice that he stepped on a paintball.

He almost doesn't turn in time. Even so, the dagger plunges into his shoulder and runs down one arm, cutting through skin and muscle past his limited armor.

Still, he notices the purple footprint in time to keep it from being a killing blow, whirling with the shield aimed at about Ophois' throat height, and blasting with the staff if the shield hits anything, trying to take advantage while he can.

He has no illusions of taking anyone down here - he just hopes he can take his opponent off-guard enough to finally get a hit in and buy more time while Ophois tries to figure out what just happened.

Best Buck can hope for, in current circumstances.

He could feel the dagger absorb power and funnel it into him. He smiled and then got hit with the shield. It knocked him backward and then the blast hit. He went flying backward and landed hard on the ground.

Buck is having some trouble moving the arm with the staff now, so he braces it on his hip, firing again, trying to get in one more shot before he drops another smoke bomb. He doesn't have a lot of fight left in him, but at least he's buying people time here while he hopes whatever Aslief disappeared to do turns up... something.
