Peter frowned, attempting to figure out just what they were talking about. But he decided that enough was enough. He dropped down from the ceiling silently behind them. "Hi guys," he said easily, acting as though he was relaxed. The men turned around quickly, their eyes wide as they stared at him. Two came at him at once, but he managed to fight them off quite easily, his reflexes coming in handy. The third and fourth were just as easy, and he shoved them over with the other two, making sure that there was enough webbing to keep them from escaping. The fifth, however, had disappeared. And that's when he heard the machine start to turn on. "No no no, what are you doing? What are you doing?" He ran over, staring at a loss at the control panel. He started hitting buttons, trying to figure out what was going on. The machine rose through the glass cylinder, and he watched helplessly as it rose to the top, leaving the building. "No no no, come on, just turn off. Turn off. Please," he begged, unable to figure out what was going on. And that's when the gas started pouring out.
"I can handle myself, Steve. They don't let just anyone join SHIELD, you know that. I need to help them," Katie told him, frowning deeply. She wasn't some damsel in distress that needed saving. She could take care of herself just fine. And that's exactly what she wanted to do.
"Steve? What are you - Steve! Put me down! You ass- Put me down!" She shrieked, struggling to get away from him. It was useless, his arms were like steel. Absolute steel. "I am not in shock, you moron. I need to go in there. I need to help - Steve!" She was beyond angry, she was downright furious. "You idiot, I swear to God, I'm an agent of SHIELD, let me go!"
