"Call it, Captain."
Kagome could only blink at her father, who had just willingly allowed another man take the reins of leadership on this. Which meant this Captain had his respect, considering how persnickety her father was.
"Alright, listen up. Until we can close that portal up there, our priority is containment. Barton, I want you on that roof, eyes on everything. Call out patterns and strays. Stark, you got the perimeter. Anything gets more than three blocks out, you turn it back or you turn it to ash."
Barton rolled his shoulders as he turned towards her father. "Think you can give me a lift?"
Giving a sharp nod to the archer, he walked over and grabbed the back of his vest.. "Right. Better clench up, Legolas." Before taking off, though, he turned to Kagome with the warning, "Watch your back."
"You as well," she replied as she watched the two take off, quickly becoming small dots in the sky.
"Thor, you've gotta try and bottleneck that portal, slow them down. You've got the lightning, light the bastards up." The Captain eyed her carefully, until she raised a brow in question. "Take her with you. We have a lot riding on your theory, miss."
"I understand." She moved towards Thor, letting out a quiet 'oof' when he hauled her to his side.
"Fear not my lady, you shall not be harmed under my watch."
Grimacing at the title, and now pretty sure he knew what she was, or had an idea at least, she prepared herself as he began to swing his hammer. She hoped he could hear her over the scream of the wind as she pointed out, "Let's just get up there and take this one step at a time."
