Phoenix was completely decked out in her vault suit and armor. She held the laser rifle in her hands. She was going to have to be careful here. She didn't want to hurt anybody, and she didn't want to get caught today, either. Although she loved her gauss rifle, it was a little too powerful for this situation. She did, however, want the Avengers to try and seek her out, so she wore no sunglasses. The large birthmark on her cheek should be indicative enough. Plus, she hoped that this earth had developed some sort of facial recognition software.
She stood in the bank, a place with many security cameras posted about. Somehow, she managed to walk right in. Nobody heeded her too much mind, which she found quite odd. This earth really was fucked up.
MacCready was on top of the next building over. She shouldn't need him, but she always liked to be prepared.
She pointed the rifle up and fired. This got people's attention. Like sacks of rocks, they all dropped to the floor, covering their heads. It had been about a month since the attack, but the repairs were hardly started and people were more than likely still scared from the battle.
"I am seeking those who claim to call themselves the Avengers," She bellowed in her Silver Shroud voice. "I wish to challenge them to battle,"
She switched back to her normal voice while aiming her gun at a banker. "Also, I want all the money in your drawer. Now."
The frightened banker was about to open their drawer when she heard sirens. "Shit!" She swore to herself. "Nevermind!" She yelled before sprinting out the door, then zig zagged between alleys. She and MacCready took special care to mark out her escape route before actually performing their stunt.
She was going to meet MacCready back at their apartment. It seemed like she was home free. For now.
"Sir, SHIELD has forwarded this file to you," JARVIS informed Tony, who was trying to calm his nerves with some whiskey. The tower was still in shambles, but there was progress.
He rubbed his face. "Show me," He commanded.
Soon enough, a holographic screen popped up in front of the billionaire's face. It was oddly high quality security footage from one of the high class banks downtown. Tony recognized it as one that he kept some of his money at. He soon realized that that was not the reason he was being alerted to the attempted burglary.
A strangely dressed woman entered the bank with a very obvious weapon. He wondered why people didn't react as soon as they saw it. When she fired a blast at the ceiling, that seemed to do it. Tony sat up straight. That was no ordinary gun. It reminded him somewhat of a hydra weapon, or even a weapon from the Chitauri. However, that beam was red. And red was his color, dammit.
"I am seeking those who claim to call themselves the Avengers. I wish to challenge them to battle!" She yelled into the bank in a strange voice. Then she pointed the gun at a banker before hearing sirens and running away. Somehow, they seemed to not catch her.
Tony wished he could chalk her up to be some kind of lunatic, but she had far too advanced weaponry to be considered that. And she was definitely wearing armor. Something told him it was a trap, but he was curious now. SHIELD was going to regret this.
