Cap:
Steve began to eat his icecream, feeling a bit like a kid again, if you didn't count the fact that he was in the hotel and on the run and on a mission to get to a man who had the potential to do a lot of harm. With a small smile, he looked over at Bucky eating his icecream and wondered if he remembered the past or if those things were still fuzzy in his mind. Then he looked over at Alyona, who seemed a bit happier now that she was eating the icecream.
"Sugar crash?" Steve rolled his eyes. "Food and drink doesn't affect us the same way anymore," he said, speaking for himself and Bucky, placing his spoon inside his bowl for a moment. "I learned that the hard way when-" He was going to say when Bucky had died and he'd tried to drink away the pain, but it felt wrong to bring up. So instead he said, "-when I tried to forget some things by drinking... it didn't work." Then he looked over at Amber and the amount of icecream she had scooped and again smiled, trying to forget his previous thought. "Buck can handle that amount of icecream... I'm not sure I'm ready to find out what happens when you've eaten that much," he laughed softly.
Bucky:
Bucky stopped scooping his icecream, which ended up filling the bowl completely, and he put the cover back on the tub with a sheepish grin. He probably grabbed too much icecream, but there was no one here to regulate how much he ate, and besides, he deserved it (well, actually, he didn't really deserve it. Rather, he needed it). He took a spoon from the counter and then leaned his right elbow on the counter and began to pile the icecream into his mouth with the same hand. It was horribly cold. Brought back memories that the cold always brought. But he didn't care. It was only icecream.
"Very funny," he commented to Steve, and then looked over at Wanda, grinning. "You would agree with him," he joked.
He stopped eating the icecream for just a moment, setting aside his bowl. He glanced over at Alyona, a glint of humor in his overly-tired eyes. "No grasshoppers this time?" he asked, giving her a wink. "So, we've found out what happens when I eat too much icecream, what happens to Steve, and what happens to Amber," he said, giving each of them a short glance, "so what about you, Alyona? What happens when you eat too much icecream?"
Cap:
And then it all happened. Steve cursed himself silently for letting his guard down and trying to enjoy the evening. He threw his icecream to the side and jumped up from his seat and instinctively went to reach for his shield, but he knew he didn't have it. It was back with the government. He had no weapons on hand. But it didn't matter. He was good with hand-to-hand combat. Yet, by the time all this had gone through his mind and he'd run to the door, the lights were flushed out of the room and Alyona had been taken by her brother. He recognized the man by his appearance and by his Russian accent. He looked over at the rest of the Avengers, his body tense, but poised and ready to fight. "Everyone okay?" he asked, a bit out of breath as he peered around the room. "We have to go after her."
Bucky:
Bucky threw his bowl aside and jumped to his feet beside Steve. He instinctively grabbed the first thing that he could use as a weapon and found himself gripping one of the spoons. But he quickly threw it aside when he realized the spoon would hardly injure a man like Borya. "I shouldn't have let my guard down," he said. "I can't believe I actually thought we were safe." He looked over at Steve. "What's the plan?"

Haha its okay
Alyona: idk... i just become more Russian when i eat ice cream?
----
For a long moment, Natasha felt dazed in her state as she looked to the others. He certainly knew Kali- she wasnt going to underestimate that again. "We need to split up. Borya is most likely to take her to an empty building. He wouldnt want to kill anyone where there are eyewitnesses, whether it be camera or people," she informed seriously then as her nose scrunched up in distaste. She felt dumb for not being smart enough to make moves to stop this. Raising her hand, she brushed her hair back before moving over to pick up the rod and steal a glance out the windows to overlook the lobby below. "If we move now, we can maybe catch Borya':s bread crumbs before they turn stale," she added as she made a gesture to the lobby.
Looking to Amber, she held the rod to her. "Could you track this?" She offered seriously, brows furrowing as her lips pursed. This could work, couldnt it?
--
As for the siblings, Alyona had wriggled through her brother's grip and was running back through the crowded building. Her heart was racing and adrenaline pumped through her veins. Barreling behind her was Borya, however she didnt care. Her eyes flicked this way and that, shedding the sweatshirt over her head and runningg faster. Her pale skin stood out in the crowd, sports top now visible and her head twisting this way and that. Foreign words were shouted between the duo and Alyona skidded to a stop before lunging to the right.
Borya had stopped for a moment, head twisting this way and that before he growled lowly in his throat. He lost the small squirt, but he knew she couldnt hide for long. Lifting a thumb, he smeared away the tiny drip of blood that came from his nose as he had been hit rather hard to drop her. Giving a disgruntled noise, a small parting was made from the small shops and dining area to the main lobby of the rather nice hotel. He decided to give them a small false sense of hope.

Cap:
Steve nodded. "Well, Nat, you're the spy here," he said. "If that's what you think he'll do, it's our best lead." He placed his hands on his hips and surveyed the room and everyone in it. It was a mess - they were a mess too - and, although he knew they needed to head out, he hated that they had to leave so soon. Not only were they still in need of sleep, but now some of them were injured by Borya. If that wasn't bad enough, they were all running on bowls of icecream. Can't stop now, he thought to himself. Now we're closer to Borya than we've ever been. We can't let him slip out of our hands again.
He looked over at each of them in turn. "Should we stick with the same groups as before so as not to rouse suspicion or are we getting rid of that gig?" They needed to make a decision fast, and he didn't want to have to pretend anymore. They had a mission, and Alyona's life - possibly other's lives too - were at stake.
Bucky:
"Nat's right," he said, glancing out the door. Despite the fatigue that he had been feeling earlier, he was now fizzed with energy from the fight and his eyes were wide and alert. "We've got to split up. Borya doesn't seem like he's messing around. But I can't understand why he'd want his sister alone. Is is sole purpose to kill her? And then what? There has to be more to his plan, and it seems a little too similar to what happened not too long ago." He took his eyes away from the open door for a moment to look at Steve. "He wants to get us all together. He knows that we'll do anything to protect Alyona or anyone else. We're still the Avengers... He knows that, and he's going to use it against us."
Bucky's hands curled into fists, thinking back to Russia, and then he took a step towards the door. Another step, he thought of Wakanda. That wasn't going to happen again. And he wasn't going to let Borya get away with anymore of his games. No one else needed to get hurt. Not if he could help it.

on mobile so rip if i make mistakes))
Amber was going to shift back to talk anyways, so she did, still kneeling by the door. She took the rod from Natasha, rolling it over in his hands. "Don't know. I mean, I already saw a general direction that he ran in, but... depending on how far he went, I don't know." She leaned against the wall, shifting back to the wolf and creeping forward. Her gray and brown fur rippled slightly as she pointed her nose out of the door, turning her head one way. She shook her head, hoping they'd get that she had a slight lead. If they decided to go through, because likr Steve had said, they were the Avengers. And, a wolf couldn't exactly roam the building to track down Borya..

Same wild same
Natasha looked to Steve and Bucky then. "Just go. We dont have time to discuss," she told them as her eyes snapped up to the two men. "If we can hunt him down and wound him enough then we can capture him. With you two stronger than the rest of us it should go smoothly as the fact he isn't that strong with the two of you combined. The more we talk, the more the line grows stale. And the closer it is Bucky wont have his other half for the disguises later," she answered with a look that clearly said she was annoyed. They didn't have to ask and talk, they had to just go. To add to it, an even more annoyed tone resounded through the now quiet building.
"The longer you wait the more time i have to escape and to never see you again," Borya hollered from the lobby again.
Natasha looked at Amber when she spoke, ignoring Borya's voice then. "Lets at least try," she told the teen and patted her fluffy head before daring to move first. Might as well right? She kicked the rod in the process, letting the object roll across the floor before letting it clatter at the man's feet below as he opted to come over in a slow and prowling manner to stop it.

Cap:
With that, Steve ran out of the room, following Borya's voice echoing off the walls, Bucky coming up right beside him. Clearly Borya had something in mind if he was literally calling them to come after him. They had to be careful, but they also didn't have much time to think. They just had to act. "Come on, Buck," he said to his friend, as they moved down the hotel's halls. "Let's go get this bad guy."
Bucky:
"Right with you," Bucky agreed, his eyes scoring the thin hallway. "Come out, come out, where ever you are..." he muttered under his breath. And then the hallway opened up to the lobby. It was nighttime, so - thankfully - the lobby wasn't too crowded, but there were a few young people talking in a corner and the night audit was sitting at the front desk - and Borya, standing there, waiting, Alyona nowhere to be seen. Bucky narrowed his eyes, hating this man with every inch of his being. He wanted to kill the man right then and there - knew he was capable of it, too - but something about this made him stop. It seemed too easy. He glanced over at Steve, and then back at Borya. If he had been an animal, he probably would have looked like a grizzly, ready to attack.
Cap:
"What do you want, Borya?" Steve asked, standing ready to fight at any moment. He had quickly surveyed the room to make sure he knew where the exits were, what his potential weapons could be, etc, and now his eyes were focused on the Russian. "Why are you making such an effort to do all this?" He clenched his hands by his sides, eyes narrowed. He didn't dare ask about Alyona because he hoped that Natasha and Amber would find her first while he stalled. He wanted to hold Borya long enough. This didn't have to come to a fight- but he noticed the look on Bucky's face beside him, and he knew that his friend would rather kill the man instead of talk it out.

Borya let his lips curl up in that same twisted smile as before, twirling the rod within his large palms as he looked down at it, and then his newfound enemies. A light chuckle jostled his frame, head tilting and other hand bringing up the discarded hood from earlier. "Looking for a sibling," he hummed out in a sickly sweet tone and his head tilted. His evergreen hues twinkled, silver locks disheveled and his tongue swiping out to remove the red that dared to give the inside of his mouth an iron tinge.
His ears pricked, turning his eyes from Steve and giving a chuckle to Bucky. "Yknow, its actually adorable with how you treat Alyona," he hummed to the brunette then as his eyes narrowed into slits. "But i guess uselsss trash stick together," he mused softly as he rolled his head to the side and turned his body to make his slow walk after his sibling. "In fact, if you help me find her, I'd be glad to take her off your hands and let you all go away while i look the other way. I could tell my boss that there was a big fight, someone had to be hero, blah blah blah." He stopped in his tracks and inhaled deeply.
"Or... Lets say we play, beat the clock. You both can chase after me while i chase after short stack Russian, and the women can try to find her before i do. Heres the catch, if i complete my mission on ending her, i win. I then move on to capture all of you and hand you to my boss, i end up in a better position, i tip my hat to you, whatever. But if you win," he inhaled slowly as his eyes flicked over to the women joining them. "I can be vanquished, someone might end up worse than the other and more hiding. What do you say? One of the Aliyev siblings will go out tonight." His voice dropped to a cold and sinister tone, and the evergreen hues immediately darkened to a forest in the night.

Borya is savage
Natasha glanced to Amber. She had noticed where Borya was going- it was the only logical explanation on to where Alyona had gone. Giving a nod, the eldest Russian broke off into a sprint, her legs carrying her as fast as she could. She went in a wide bend, a small glimpse of her frame distracting the large man on their level as she made a break for the other side of the building. This should be easy right? Nose scrunching, she made jumped up and over a cart that was being brought from the kitchen- presumably delievery for some room that ordered from the hotel's restaurant.
Landing, she skidded along and came to a pause, ushering Amber to go right while Natasha moved on forward, deciding this would be the time for the two women to branch off when they could. Ears pricking, she instictively brought arms over her head when the sound of loud bangs echoed around the walls. Borya wasn't letting this get in his way. Giving a little snarl from behind, the man was more than ancy to get moving from the men.
To the right, Alyona could see the silhouettes from the inside, her throat burning and her hand gripping a welting bruise at her side. She wasnt as bad as she would end up being, but it was still kinda bad. Looking down at her side, she let the flicker of a rushing form overtake her fear and she turned and made a small bolt down the alley way and up the fire escape as fast as she could possibly go. The sound of the glass shattering from the restaurant entrance only spurred her on faster.

Bucky:
"Your words mean nothing to me," Bucky spat, narrowing his eyes. "I get along with your sister because she's a kind person, and kind people stick together. We've both had a lot of bad in our pasts, both done things that make others hate us, but it's about who we are today. And it's about time you leave her alone and get on with your own life. You could start over..." He didn't want to give this man a second chance, hated even bringing it up. But he had gotten a second chance. Would Borya want a second chance as well? He kept his eyes on the Russian man. "Why do you want Alyona so bad? If you hate her so much - call her trash, hurt her so bad - why do you want her? So that you can make yourself feel better? She doesn't deserve that kind of treatment. No one does."
Cap:
Steve held his composure. "You act like you'd be doing us a service, getting out of our hands and looking the other way," he said. "But it's not that easy. You can't take Alyona - she's scared of you - and you'd be crazy to think we'd help you." He looked over at Bucky, agreeing with his friend. "You could stop all this - tell us who you're working for - make amends - do good instead of bad - and then we could talk about forgiveness... But until you stop all this mess, we're not leaving you alone. You're a threat, Borya, like it or not." He then let out a throaty laugh as Borya proposed his plan. "This isn't a game," he said. "None of this is a game. This is real life. Alyona is not a mouse that we are all fighting over... And no one should be dying tonight, but you should be put behind bars for all that you've done..."
Bucky:
"But it's hilarious that you think you can win," Bucky said, clapping his hands slowly. "Even if you got to Alyona first, we'd do everything in our power to make sure that we got her back, and we'd fight before we let you take us with you. You often underestimate us, and I wonder why."

"Of course i would win. You would think i would let you get your infested beliefs touch the rest of the world? My boss already made advancements and seems to say that the plan is working quite well. If i remember quickly its you and Steve, and people who believe the right to defend themselves from attacks that are fleeing, not Tony Stark," he mused to Bucky as his head tilted. "Or did you forget like you have been soldier?" His eyes shifted to Steve then, hissing out for a moment.
Borya glowered at the women that slipped around him before scowling up at Steve and Bucky. "You wanna know why i loathe her entire being?" He sneered out finally, his eyes snapping over to Bucky as bile seemed to form up in the man's throat. "Because she's a powerful, mutant- a creature capable of placing herself into someone else's emotions and able to understand everything someone else is feeling," he twisted his frame then. "She has every right to be afraid of me," a low hiss drawled out, "and i'll do her a service to begin the process of removing the impure and the lost."
"Even if you manage to rid of me before i dispose of the child who was washed into believing people can change, i must let you know that.. When you rid of me... cut off one head and two more will take its place." His head turned as he thought for a long moment. "Go ahead and try to stop me- but even if im considered friend or foe.. I'll let you both consider the fact that no one is really free. everyone is corrupt, greedy and will do anything- even if it means killing for the spoils of their riches. That- that is something we cant change. Over the years I've lived with Alyona ive tried fixing her disease of disbelief, that people can be good, but look at us now." A bark of laughter escaped into the air at forgiveness then, his eyes turning to Steve. "You're amusing Rogers. She's a pawn on the broader scale of the fight, with no acts of forgiveness. She is a valuable opponet on the playing field... I wish you would've met her after we left Xavier's. She was more bright and whole hearted than what i degraded her to."
Without warning his body shot off like a bullet leaving the barrel of a gun, boots clacking and making his way out to the door he watched his sibling go through. He couldn't sit and talk it out- he had to move. His trail was still hot and it was fizzling quickly.

Bucky:
"Which part of our beliefs are infested?" Bucky asked, shaking his head. "We are fighting for the good of the people. We are trying to protect the people from people like you. I am someone who knows what that's like first hand." He clenched his fists, listening to the familiar crunch of metal from his arm, reminding him of who he was - Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier. "We are not defending ourselves - we are defending the people - and we may be in hiding, but we are not fleeing. We are standing up to fight. Don't speak of Tony Stark to me- and don't even pretend like he'd be on your side. He's full of himself, but he's got better judgment than you."
Cap:
"We are soldiers - and I am not ashamed of fighting for what I believe in. Maybe I am not a perfect soldier," Steve said, thinking back to Erskine's words, "but I know that I am a much better man than you."
Bucky:
"News flash, Borya," Bucky growled, his muscles tensing. "We're all mutant freaks here, and there are a lot more of us out there, but that's the kind of world it is becoming. Shield is doing everything they can to make sure inhumans are being kept in check- but it's not them we have to worry about. We have to worry about powerful people like you. Perhaps you speak a bit of truth, but getting rid of people who have done nothing wrong is wrong."
Cap:
Just as Bucky's words touched his ears, Borya shot off. Steve knew he'd try something like that. He cast a glance at his friend and then shot after Borya, following after the man. They couldn't let him get away. They'd heard him talk, now they needed to stop him.

This is heated xD
>_> as i try to escape my literature. Ill be here all night shrimp
---
Borya had simply grinned at their words, and moved like a freight train. He was scaling the fire escape, catching a glimpse of the long hair that cascaded over Alyona's shoulders like a curtain. However, it seemed to quickly spin around and out of the way as she found herself moving across the rooftop. The other buildings were farther away than calculated, so she resumed to standing her ground.
Borya was moving like a goat up on the mountain side, long legs carrying him up several steps at a time and was moving as fast as he could. He didnt bother to glance behind him, knowing exactly who it was. Giving a light chuckle for a moment as he perched himself on the edge. His eyes glinted at the fire escape before he stepped onto the playing field. It was it- the final chapter that laid in stone for either of them and they both seemed to know it. Both were tense, and both had been quick and fluid with their moments as they begun their ritual of hand to hand combat. Whoever would arrive at the top first, would see the grace they both presented to each other.
It wasnt until Borya managed to lay the final blow that Alyona stumbled back with a bruise welting at her temple and her nose leaked the ruddy liquid with the edges of her mouth. She weakly held her hands up to protect her face, swallowing a thick lump of iron before she breathed shallowly. "Any questions Alyona?" Borya asked as he lifted up a black glock and checked the chamber before slamming the magazine into the bottom hole. His eyes turned over to stare at her, his jaw tightening before it ultimately relaxed at her words.
"I... I want to know... If what you told mom was true... That you would care for me no matter what..." She answered softly as she gripped her own palms that were stinging and red from the exchanged martial arts. Both locked eyes, and Borya let out a low chuckle.
"You seem to understand through your power of empathy, so ill just give it to you there," he mused as his head tilted. He watched as her body stiffened and paled, her eyes widening. "Feel the truth yet? Or wait... Theres more isnt there?" Giving a low chuckle he watched her slowly crumple onto the rooftop with a look of... Grief on her face. "Now i know youre gonna say, i promised, i did this, that... Whatever, but you and i know for a long time you secretly doubted yourself to ever help me. Instead of fighting in the beginning you thought you could pretend to submit but in the end you lost yourself into the world of confusion. Mother and father never cared for me in the end. As long as their baby girl was alive and well they could really care less what i did," he mused as he walked over and scooped her up into his arm and held her to his frame. Her head was back, body like a ragdoll as he awkwardly stood to keep her frame hoisted. "So... Realizing they themselves never escaped their own iron rule... I opted to end them. But that was because they thought you were the best." He leaned his head down, and whispered softly.
She was in shock. A state of shock where she could hear, see, smell, feel... But cant respond. Her eyes barely fluttered, watching as his head raised and simply turned to Bucky and Steve. "I'll do it," he stated shakilyl- even in the end he was beginning to unravel. But even the man didnt know what it was because of. Holding her, he pressed his finger to the trigger and stared at them as if it were a challenge. To himself- a dare to see if he could really see it to the end, and to the two super soldiers? Well thats probably because he was just being a bad guy and doing his role. Even then... Something in his muscles locked up and he wouldnt have time to act in retaliation should something happen. His lip was split, a bruise forming a black eye, and several scrapes marked his exposed skin. She managed to fight back for the few moments she could.

last reply before I sleep >:0
Amber ran along Natasha, speeding ahead of her. She skidded a few times, growling under her breath at the tiled floors which made her claws slide out from under her multiple times. Seeing a broken window where she assumed one of the men, or Alyona, had left, she dove the spot and slowed as she reached the fire escape. Casting a glance behind her to see if Natasha had caught up, she slowly, silently made her way up the steps. She heard voices, so she made sure to draw zero attention to er, deciding to pause and crouch down on the metal escape, ears perked, jaws parted slightly.

Cap:
Steve ran after Borya, his legs moving faster than they'd ever moved before. Alyona's life was on the other end of this and her life was at stake. He knew that as Borya had gotten a head start, the Russian would get to his sister first, so Steve just knew he had to do everything in his power to catch up to the man before anything happened. But, yet, Borya seemed to know the area better than he did, and Steve found himself running so fast that he slammed into a few walls before he finally spotted Borya again, travelling down the fire escape to his sister. Steve kept his eyes trained on the man, took another turn, and-
Borya was standing there with Alyona limp in his arms. A gun was focused on the smaller girl, but Borya seemed to be frozen in the act of firing. Something was holding him there, as if for once he was actually considering what he was doing. But as Steve stopped on the landing, his breath coming in pants, he knew he couldn't stand there and try to figure out what Borya was thinking about. It would only take one swift motion of the finger to pull the trigger, and although Borya seemed hesitant now, Steve didn't want to test it.
Without another thought, he ran for Borya, aiming right for the gun.
Bucky:
Bucky came up beside Steve, and as his eyes focused on the scene before him, he noticed that Borya was holding Alyona, but had frozen in the act of killing her. He looked over at Steve with an expression of confusion, but he felt like he knew what might be going through Borya's mind. Regardless, as he turned back to the siblings, he knew there was no time to waste.
Borya clearly didn't want a second chance. He wanted to kill or be killed, and while neither option was great, Bucky knew the latter was what it was going to have to be. They couldn't allow Borya to kill more people, and if it meant his death, so be it. He deserved it, right? Right..? So many times in his life, Bucky had killed people for no reason. He had killed because he had been ordered to kill. He had taken innocent lives without reason. But now... now no one was ordering him to kill. This was a choice of his own, and this was his own judgment.
He stared at Borya, hatred in his eyes. He saw Alyona's hair dangling as Borya held her like a doll. And he felt the need to protect her over everything else. He felt like he had to be that brother that Alyona never had. This man deserved everything coming at him. With a quick glance at Steve to see what the other man was doing, he understood and with a nod raced towards Borya as well.

Natasha Romanova
For a long moment, she stared at the men. It seemed like time was slowing down for a brief moment; Her breath hitched and her red curls fluttered lightly in the night breeze before she turned her eyes over to Amber. She didn't know what to say or do- it seemed Bucky and Steve were already on the case... Giving a light sigh through her nose, she got up onto the building and gently patted Amber's snout. They would approach with caution, and hopefully get to Alyona before the brawl managed to get any messier. Her boots lightly clacked across the ground, pausing then as she felt her throat dry. "Amber... We need some medical supplies," she told her quietly. Turning, she made her way to her companion and froze when she heard the sound of gunfire.
Her throat went dry as she looked at the younger female. In an act of checking herself to be sure she was safe, she unknowingly comically patted herself down to see if there were any exit and entry wounds. Great thing too, because she felt herself give a small contort of anger and with that, she gave Amber a look that said she had permission to rip Borya a new one. Hidden emotions bubbled up, and she didn't dare to turn around in fear that she would go livid upon the scene. Which was probably good to let the beastly Amber take care of that emotion for her- but its not like she would ever admit that aloud. The sound of knuckles cracked through the air, fingers curling into Natasha's palm as she slowly caved into the dare to see what had gone off.
Borya Aliyev
For a long moment, the man stared at the approaching men.. Without another word, the man slowly blinked and- the gun went off. He was sure he had pulled the trigger... His body immediately snapped into reality, and he cast a glance to the weapon that had been knocked from his once shaky hand and onto the concrete rooftop. The item had slid with a metallic clatter towards Bucky's booted feet, and the emotions had fizzled to focus on his new targets. He quickly jumped back, jumping slowly and [trying to] dodge[ing] any blows sent his way when a weak shove was sent his way. A low snarl erupted from his throat, and he dared to let himself get distracted on the female he held. Eyes turned ablaze, and the siblings seemed to continue their quarrel they had from before.
His grip tightened, and he dug his fingers under her jaw and into the pressure point, tugging her back and sweeping a leg behind hers to send her to the side. Her smaller frame flumped across the ground and rolled slightly to the side. Taking this as his chance, Borya turned his gaze to Steve, hands snapping down in a fluid motion and the same metallic rods from before were brandished like his pride. He swung his weapons in an ark, hoping to make contact with the shorter man's collar bone before seeming to rattle his ribcage as he struck down below in a Xylophone. His lips curled smoothly, about to make another motion to clack Steve's side.
Alyona Aliyev
For the time while Borya was letting Steve and Bucky advance, she dangled limply. Inside, she was panicking- worrying.. And for a moment she really thought she let her brother win. What got her out of shock was the sound of the gun, her eyes widening as she felt herself being brought back and moved about. Her hands weakly splayed over his broad chest, and her legs flailed through the air before successfully pushing off of him and being nearly dropped onto the ground. Her legs wobbled, ready for a rather weak battle. She was quickly overpowered, his hand wrapping around and nearly overlapping her throat as his fingers pressed up below her steep jawline and her legs were knocked from below her.
Sprawling to the ground, she found the world spinning for a moment before pushing herself up. Alyona nearly tossed up the small bites of ice cream from earlier, but moved none the less. She could see the rods glinting from the street lamp glow, and saw where it was hitting. While her brother tucked out his arm to hit Steve once again, her leg hooked up and around in a large arch, heel of her foot facing outwards and the back of her black converse meeting the bicep of the large Russian before her. A loud cry of surprise and pain escaped his lips, dropping the first rod and trying desperately to redirect the second. Her eyes shifted grabbing his wrist and opting to go into a small struggle of trying to keep him from Steve. "Я не буду позволять Вам повредить их или любого снова Borya," she snarled out in defiance as she used one hand to keep his wrist to the side and her body to push him back as far as she could. Minty hues blazed up at Evergreen ones, and nothing but the sibling's ragged breathing was in tune.
"I.. promise you that," she added weakly and was eventually, slowly pushed backwards. Gritting her teeth, she pushed back, the two coming to a standstill as they pushed with equal strength. She knew Borya was hit [probably] by Steve, so why not hold him off here while they were both in this state?
Я не буду позволять Вам повредить их или любого снова Borya :
She is really saying,
" I will not let you hurt them or anyone again Borya."

ACTION //yells
tests are terrible
i can't write a long reply for some reason idk ))
Amber exhaled, then gave Natasha a sideways glance. Quickly, her eyes snapped back to the dueling men ahead of her, and then she darted forward. Her teeth were bared in a snarl, paws thudding against the ground as she approached. And then she ducked down, slipping under their arms, trying to stop his hits on Steve. She saw his arm raise, and she slipped to the side again, weaving back between the two, shoving her body weight against Borya, hoping to make him fall in the effort. After, her teeth still bared, she jumped over and behind him, ready to drag him down again. She knew Borya was unpredictable, and even though she had an idea of what she could do, her body was still braced for a blow as she waited for either him or Steve to move before she made another move, whether it be against Borya or protecting herself.

[[*walks in, Cypher 4 playing in the background, wearing Nightmarionette hoodie and holding pizza* Oh yay I'm ba-

Zenmaka-Twiga
•African Goddess of Rebellion and Thievery•
While the others had fun with their icecream conversation, Zen busied herself with her phone once more; tracking the dots that reverberated across her screen with interest. Some changed color, while some stayed a constant hue, but the goddess stayed calm and content. In fact, it was only the sound of a scuffle that made her look up in shock; seeing that the group had been joined by an obvious intruder. By the looks of it, whatever was happening would be bad; and not the fun type, in her opinion. Staying low, and partially hidden by the armchair, she instinctively produced some type of mist around her fingertips; the purple hues mingling with something dark and distorted, only for the mist to disappear at the threat. While it would have been seen as a response to the threat, Zen knew it was something more...euphoric. Oh gosh, I may hate the prick...but kidnapping is stealing- and that energy is so me. It had been days, no, months since she laid her hands on anything or pinched anything for that matter. The period of 'going clean' was more painful than she could imagine. Besides, that was what she was, and now she was restricting it; however, it was her way of mourning. Eyes rolling back for a second, the goddess only focused back on the group when the man-Borya if she heard correctly had disappeared. "Great." The mutter no more than a whisper, escaped her lips. "Just great."
What was she getting herself into?
Naturally, her mind started profiling the steal, listening intently to whatever information was said as she stood up. If one looked carefully, the tattoos around her neck looked more pronounced, while something ridge-like behind her arms was covered by her jacket. Face stiff, and brows furrowed in anger, the goddess missed the ping from her phone as she stuffed it into her pocket. "Time is of the essence; can't let a wide area be made otherwise the catching rate is..." She trailed off. The situation dire, she didn't want to waste more time, or get anybody hurt. While it was a good steal- considering who was around- she couldn't condone it. I don't like people taking stuff I like...and respect... "Nevermind." Borya's voice was starting to tick her off, but she kept her cool for now. Besides, she had no quarrel yet; that is, until she gave a few choice words.
As most of the group filed out, Zen eyed the door and then the window, shaking her head and walking towards the latter. Opening it, the goddess crouched on the sill and leapt, disappearing in midair. Reappearing at another area, crouched at a high point for better surveillance, she continued to growl quietly. One, two...There's the chump. The chase and subsequent attacks made her wince slightly, not wanting anyone to get hurt, but the core that nestled in her soul made her stay put. It was an advantage, being distant and unseen, and if she played her cards right...That is, if things didn't go further than South.
The harsh echo of a gunshot prompted her to make her first move, jumping off her perch and landing with a thud; tails of her coat billowing whilst something formed with a hiss in her hand. Purple mist from before shimmering across her whole being, the goddess gained a little height as her hooves came to full fruition; warpaint inking into her face. Her growls ceasing, Zen flexed her hand around the narrow rod of her spear, the weapon hissing as it swept through the air. "Well, time to work." The words left from the confines of sharpened teeth, and the goddess let her hooves direct her towards the skirmish; hoping the element of surprise would work in their favor.
[[I tried hnng
And I'd casually let B. be observing the whole confrontation because he likes things xD]] |
