(You misunderstand. Daisy just hauled Mystique out of the water, but Mystique is posing as Alyona at the moment. I wouldn't presume to take control of your characters if you haven't said anything.) (Also, I don't want Magneto. Either of you can have him.)

That makes sense.
I could do Magneto since I do Xavier- if thats fine. Or Sabertooth. Or both- it doesn’t matter))
The real Alyona was clinging onto Borya. She opened her eyes for once, looking out over his shoulder and at tbe murky depths that sent a small shiver of fear down her spine. Borya was slowly regaining strength, swimming faster to get her out of the situation at hand. His silver locks darkened, and he almost hit the ship.
He growled in his mask, pausing beside Grey and Logan before slowly peeling his sibling off his chest. She slowly drifted, pushing the water and holding her steady

Daisy reached down into the water as a pair of hands was illuminated. Bracing herself, she grasped the outstretched hands and pulled up Borya. Clinging to him was… also Alyona? She turned her head to look at the figure on the floor, then back. Both appeared to be the same person. "Oooookay then. Now, what the hell is going on right now?"
(Mystique is, as of now, an unknown. Nobody knows who she is yet.)

Cap:
Steve was the last to board the Quinjet and slumped back against the side as he took his mask off. He watched the others and then did a double take. Alyona? What? She'd been in front of him the whole time and he'd seen her with Borya. There was no way Alyona had gotten to the Quinjet first (and without Borya). It had to be someone else, but who could pull off that kind of disguise? He looked over at the other Alyona - the one who looked exactly like her, but who Steve was sure wasn't her - and said, "Who are you?" Beside him, Bucky was looking just as confused.
Logan:
Logan pulled off his mask and shook out his hair, leaning against the wall for support. He let out a breath and then narrowed his eyes upon hearing Daisy's remark. Before even looking up, he knew only of one person who could transform themselves into someone else and pull it off. His eyes slid up to the Alyona that wasn't in Borya's arms and he growled under his breath. Mystique.

Grey launched himself up through the hole in the bottom of the jet. It sealed behind him, about six inches of water sloshing around on the floor. The air pressure could only do so much.
Regrettable that Logan was involved in this. Shouldn't be that hard to get them in the air before he could turn them all against her, though. Raven suddenly clenched her jaw tightly shut, thrashing about and beginning to foam at the mouth. Water splashed up around her as she stiffened further. She was fine, of course, but Logan couldn't exactly question her if she appeared to be having a seizure.
"Dammit." Grey tapped his helmet, then grabbed her head to try and hold her still. "SImmons, she's seizing. What do I do?" "Not much you can do in the field other than what you're doing right now. Get her to the Zephyr as quickly as possible." "May! Go now!" About a dozen feet ahead, May pushed the throttles forwards, and the Quinjet began to plow through the water.

Ooof this is good xD
—
Alyona was shocked to see herself- or someone impersonate her. Her minty hues were wide and the mask was off as soon as she could have it off. Her heart stuttered for a long moment, Borya letting go as soon as they were in safe grounds and removed his own mask to merely chuck it to the side. He was shocked for a moment, evergreen hues wide before he sent a glance to his sibling.
Then the other Alyona had a seizure and his little sister squeaked out when she heard Logan’s growl. Something was off, Borya could tell she was sensing someone else- someone who was more than equal to Logan but he wasn’t there. The man was somewhere out of sight and mind and that was what was scaring her. She weakly pushed to her feet, standing up and looking around nervously for a moment. “Is that everyone?” She questioned Logan for a moment.
(Maybe Pumpkin could be magneto??)

Cap:
"Whoever she is, if she's having a seizure, get her on her side and don't hold her still," Steve said, watching Grey trying to keep her from moving. "Just make sure she's on her side," he repeated. "I had a little medical training in the army - not much - but enough to know a little bit of what to do in the field." He didn't like the looks of this one bit, especially now that Logan clearly seemed to have some hostile feelings towards the person. But he didn't know what else to do except help while he could.
Logan:
Logan gave a nod to Alyona, letting her know that everyone was on board. Then he watched Mystique/Alyona as she began to thrash on the floor of the Quinjet. He looked at the others to see all of their shocked expressions and then looked back at the mutant, another growl lifting from his throat. Mystique was usually bad news, he knew it. From experience, he knew she only did things that favored her or gave her some sort of benefit. He wasn't sure what she was looking for now or whose game she was playing, but he wasn't particularly sure he wanted to find out. Still, she had to have some sort of aim. And maybe he could weasel it out of her. "What are you doing here?" he hissed, getting down to her level. He knew she must have been faking it. She wasn't having a seizure. "And whose side are you on?" It took every bit of power inside him not to restrain her right there and then.
Bucky:
Bucky looked over at Alyona and pushed himself up from where he was sitting against the wall. He walked unsteadily over to his friend on the moving Quinjet. "You okay?" he asked her, his hand now on the opposite wall to keep himself from swaying. He didn't know what was going on with the other Alyona, but it was unsettling how easily it was for someone else to impersonate her. And if it was that easy to impersonate Alyona, then, how easy was it to impersonate any one of them? That was even more unsettling. The world was definitely a lot crazier than it was in the 1940s.

This must be killing Logan. He suspected she was faking it, but he couldn't be entirely sure, and there was no easy way for him to be entirely sure that she wasn't the real Alyona, either. She'd gotten too good at duplicating people; iris scans, fingerprints, smell. You name it, she could copy it. There was no way he could do anything to her without being forced to explain himself to the group first, and by the time he'd done that they'd be stuck with her, for the moment at least. To further the ruse, Raven rolled her eyes back into her head, the whites taunting Logan. Grey turned her onto her side, still attempting to keep her head still, as May breached the surface of the river. Pushing the throttles to the stops, she flicked a switch, and a slit opened at the base of the ramp. All the water that had been sitting in the jet began to stream out as Mystique stopped struggling and sat up, shifting to her blue form. "Ah, Logan, whatever shall I do with you? Sorry for the scare, but I wasn't in the mood to wait around at the bottom of the Potomac answering questions, and that seemed like the simplest way to get this jet in the air. My name is Raven Darkhölme. Now, I believe this is Logan's cue to begin moaning about my character defects," she said smoothly, placing her arms on her now leather-clad knees.

“N-no,” she answered Bucky truthfully, immediately hiding closer to him. She nervously swallowed, her brows pressing together. She held at his hand, the other two assassins helping Steve ans Grey. “I can sense someone else.. I can’t find him- he’s- he’s-“ she whimpered then, her lips pressing together. However, she hushed at the sight of Mistique, immediately hiding into Bucky and peering around his torso with wide minty eyes and whimpers.
Borya slumped down onto his knees. If it was who Logan said it was- it won’t be as easy to impersonate Alyona. He’s done so many things to her that Mistique would have a harder time recalling. She couldn’t sense people’s enotions and beings- not like his sibling can. His evergreen hues alit with amusement as he watched Mistique. But who was Alyona speaking of? Borya’s eyes narrowed as he used a hand to hold himself up. There was no one would could match Logan’s abilities and strength. But she acted as though she met him before. Borya looked at Mistique. “Amusing,” he rumbled quietly

Logan:
Logan glared at Mystique. It was no surprise that it was her, but he still let out a small breath. This was just great. "The better question is what we're going to do with you, Mystique," he said, his tone not short of a little venom. "I won't give her the flattery she's looking for," he then said, turning his eyes away from her for a moment to address the others, "but this is Raven Darkhölme, otherwise known as the mutant Mystique. She's dangerous and manipulative - and I'm not quite sure why she's here." He glanced back at the mutant. "Why are you here?" His claws slid out, but he didn't advance.
Bucky:
Bucky rested a hand on her shoulder. "There's someone else here?" he asked. "Who is it-" Mystique was then revealed before them and Bucky blinked a few times. So it wasn't just a disguise? It was an actual person... He returned his gaze back to Alyona. "Do you know her?" he asked.
Cap:
"Okay, I wasn't expecting that," Steve said, looking from Logan to Mystique back to Logan. He sat up from his place against the wall and stood by Logan's side in case the intruding mutant tried to play any fancy games. From the sound of it, Logan didn't seem to trust her, which gave Steve no reason to trust her either. He'd met a fair share of people trying to impersonate others and that had never gone well.

Alyona blinked at the blue woman, soon looking up at Bucky. “N-no, but I do know of her,” she explained softly. “She usually works with Magneto, but it doesn’t seem like he’s nearby... His energy and emotion put off is very different,” she murmured, glancing around the space about them. Off to the far side a metallic panel was slightly peeled away, and for a moment she thought she saw a small flicker of a gaze. “But she can be very powerful into tricking others. If she does it correctly, she can convince others she’s that person until they show up. I’ve also heard she turned a group against each other because of it.”

"Oh, I wouldn't say usually, dear. When it furthers my interests, yes, but I really just do my own thing." Mystique batted her eyes and looked at Logan innocently. "What, I can't be here purely for altruistic reasons?" She stood up, crossing her arms. "For all you know, I could have had a change of heart. I mean, I haven't, but you really should have at least started with that. That's hurtful, Logan." She turned to Cap, who seemed to be the leader of this group. "Suffice to say, we share a common goal. You want to get rid of Schmidt, I want to get rid of Schmidt, and I'm sure we can easily come to an arrangement. If you don't trust me, ask Logan. He'll tell you not to, which is fair, but if he's being truthful, he'll also tell you we've worked together on several occasions in the past, and each time I've been a solid asset to the team until I've gotten what I want." "For what it's worth, SHIELD used to work with criminals a lot," said Daisy. "I mean, I was a computer hacker."

Bucky:
Bucky nodded. "Well, it looks like we've got our hands full, then," he said, glancing over at Mystique for a moment. "In the meantime, I guess we just hope she's not working against us." And, even as he heard Mystique speak, it sounded like she wanted to work with them. But how did she know the Skull? And why was she after him, too? He turned his gaze back to Alyona, who seemed to be a bit distant. "Someone else is here..." he murmured. "You can feel it, can't you?"
Logan:
"Like I said, not here to flatter you, Mystique," Logan muttered, crossing his arms, his claws sliding back. "But my word is hardly law around here - and it never was to you, so it doesn't matter what I say."
Cap:
Steve looked from Daisy to Mystique and then from Logan to Mystique. Daisy was right. S.H.I.E.L.D often worked with criminals when it helped them - but they also were known to harbor some of the bad people without even knowing it. That's exactly how it was for years with H.Y.D.R.A. You never could know who to trust. And that's why Steve had a hard time trusting anyone but those closest to him. "We're not S.H.I.E.L.D," he said to Daisy, "but we're also not the Avengers right now either. And, although I wouldn't call us criminals, most of the people who want to turn us in would." He turned his gaze to Mystique. "If we ask for your help - which I'm not saying we are - what exactly do you want? Because we have already have a team. You're going to have to be pretty convincing."

“Well, for starters...” Raven reached into her pocket and pulled out part of a motherboard. “I disposed of the Iron Legion bot on the bank above your hiding spot,” she said, tossing the chunk of silicon at Daisy, shifting into Tony’s form. “Turns out, it’s not that hard when you’re biometrically identical to its creator. So,” she said, reverting to her blue form, “what I’m offering you is access. Infiltration. And, of course, underworld contacts, all in return for a modest consulting fee.” “Well, we can’t be sure it’s Legion until we get back, but this is definitely Stark tech,” Daisy said.

Alyona glanced at Mystique. “I hope her partner is willing to-“ she mumbled, gripping his shirt when he spoke. It was a strong, imposing feeling that had her nodding in confirmation. The panel was kicked off, slamming into Borya and a figure stepped from the hole in the wall. His head pivoted, the faint cracking noise filled the air and a satisfying sigh escaping his lips. His hair was short and buzz cut, and he had mutton chops.
“That’s who I’m sensing-!” She squeaked out to Bucky, the male’s eyes now on Alyona and a wolfish smirk crossing his features before looking to Logan.
“Stop being so stubborn little brother,” Victor’s soft growl filled the air. “Mystique and I have a lot to offer your team-“ he paused as his nails lengthened when Natasha dared to approach with an intent to fight.
“We know how she got on- how did you?” Clint questioned as he drew his bow back.
“Through the walls,” he clicked his nails nonchalantly as he then hummed, “The water is all gone, as well as some unimportant wiring. Other than that, the ship is flying normally.” He then nodded to his partner in crime, his eyes shifting over her figure. “She’s the boss- better listen to her.”
Alyona shrank slightly, Borya shoving the panel off and growling under his breath. “That’s Victor,” Alyona quietly informed Bucky. “That’s Logan’s older brother... He’s just as head strong in battle as he is, and stronger and faster than him.” She explained quietly. That was the man who broke Logan’s original claw bones before he had opted to go into the whole adamantium surgery. Having Victor on their side with Logan would beef up their hand to hand combat for sure, and with Mystique’s cunning ability to infiltrate and overtake the enemy was a major asset. What could go wrong? Well- Logan and Victor hate each other to where they would kill each other as many times as needed, and Mystique could become any one of them and pose as anyone. It was a dangerous duo when put on the enemy team.
Victor meanwhile, slowly walked to Alyona out of curiosity, his nails shrinking and pointed canines revealed in an attempt to be a charmer. All she did in return was raise a small hand and swat at the air like a kitten the more he approached.
It left Borya to look at Mystique. A perfect replication of Stark tech? Amazing yes- even more so now that he kept reminding himself that it was only human skin. But to them, it would feel like armor. “She could be a worthy asset,” Borya told Steve seriously.

Mystique gritted her teeth. “Victor. So nice of you to let me know you’d be coming, so I could figure out a way to get you onboard that didn’t involve millions of dollars worth of damage and the sabotage of the shielding systems keeping our presence masked,” she said, voice dripping with sarcasm. “You know, I thought I saw you, but I figured you couldn’t possibly be stupid enough to follow me without letting me know and then try and bust into a Quinjet underwater.” Sighing, she reached behind herself, pulling a 9mm out of the small of her back and pointing it at his kneecap before any of the team could react. “Now stop spooking the kid. They trust us little enough as it is.” “Dammit,” Grey said, rushing to the cockpit. “May, check the shielding.” “Why? We’re not at 20 miles yet.” “Just do it.” She reached forwards, flicking a switch. A little model of the jet turned green, except for a section on the right side, which started flashing red. “Dammit,” Grey said again. “Nothing to do but hug the ocean, get lost in the ground clutter, and hope nobody sees the steel patch.” May shoved the stick forwards, dropping to mere feet above the waves.

Victor forced a smile, stopping in his tracks. Sure his regenerative healing was just as great as Logan's- if not better- but it would still hurt it he got shot. His eyes turned to her, his smile pulling his lips farther up as he bit out, "It's kind of hard to stop and get your attention when I had several bots and guards breathing down my back." His black trench coat was covered with splotches of dirt and mud, before he turned slightly revealed the burnt patches and former bullet holes. His skin was perfectly smooth despite the torn cloth. His body turned to her then, his ears pricked as he sniffed softly.
Immediately a whirr followed up above, Tony Stark's suit flying above the ship. "Hello ladies and gentlemen," Tony's voice contacted them through the intercom, sounding highly amused. "I'm just going to use my robot and patch up that hole. Get ready to activate your shields and hold on tight." With that, the robot blasted back and latched onto the ship. There, it started to work on mending the metal, rewiring here and there and making sure just that everything could work properly.
"Plus I could smell him," Victor mused once Tony's voice stopped. "I knew we were going to be fine."
Alyona glared hotly at Victor, shrinking further into Bucky's figure and making sure that Victor didn't come any closer.
