Shield agent POV (Helicarrier)
I was supposed to have off tomorrow yet now I don't think I will make it to see tomorrow. Out of nowhere while we were working gathering intel on a mutant cartel that recently sprang up Jerry and Allen shot up their seats screaming "hail Hydra"! That's when everything went to shit as everyone started killing everyone. Some seemed to know what was going on others were just reacting. I wasn't a field agent anymore and only did the bare minimum to maintain my job and now I'm regretting taking it easy. My body doesn't move like it used to I'm a few steps slower than I was, Angela caught one in shoulder because she tried to help me. Seeing that we aren't going to win this I grabbed Angela and dragged her with me out of the room doing my best to cover us.
Unfortunately I realized that I didn't get to safety but instead ferryed us to our demise as the room we just entered was filled with Hydra operatives. Not far from the door we came from was a pile of bodies which meant that they herded us here for those that escaped the initial fire fight. I was about to apologize to Angela for dragging her here until a robotic limb or should I say tail wrapped it self around the apparent leader before spraying acid in his face. I watched in shock as his face literally melted down down his neck before anyone could do anything and while we were all temporarily stunned two boomerangs knocked out one while the other was lodged into the last guy's temple.
Looking over I realized that we went from screwed to absolutely fucked as scorpion apparently joined up with other super criminals was this the new sinister six? I awaited the end now that they finished up with the traitors it was only me and Angela left. They probably wanted information which meant I needed to stall as long as possible for back up to arrive or something to distract them. A grizzled soldier stepped forward as the criminals parted, I recognized Waller's stooge immediately. According to the file he was loyal and well intentioned he truly tried to embody the idea of the American spirit which is why he was here.
Rick Flag: Don't worry they're with me. I'm Rick Flag, here on the behalf of the United States.
"Shield Agent and no you aren't getting my name as I don't want to be in Waller's database but you can call me spade as for my friend you can refer to her as Ace"

Excella Gione POV (Black technology virology department)
I don't appreciate Miranda sending Lady Mechanika to supervise me after I had pitched a reasonable and cost effective way to test the newer strains of the Extemis virus that we were developing. It makes perfect sense to test it out on orphans in small towns where it can be properly observed in a semi free range environment. After that pitch I was forced to take a ethics class before returning to work some crap about morals and other things that stood in the way of progress. Honestly I don't understand what the big deal is, isn't the whole reason I was summoned by our master for exactly this? If it was such an issue they could have just said no, there is no reason to treat me like Wesker.
My team will have to meet with Silvija in Symkaria as the new virology labs will be located there under the agreement between Miranda and Silvija. Silvija insisted on this as a way to deepen her ties with with Black tech and a way to not only have eyes on what was being studied but also to be the first to receive the benefits should we have a major breakthrough. Essentially it was a way to maintain control although indirectly, maximizing benefits while minimizing risks. I would say I'm impressed if it wasn't so obvious but Black tech wanted to expand internationally with minimal oversight so it was necessary as other countries would have stricter demands to operate in their boarders.

Kara Zor POV (Sanctuary)
What the actual fuck is Komand'r's problem? Does she actually like being blatantly mind controlled!? Although that would explain a hell of a lot... dear Rao am I actually trying to justify this psychopathic behavior? That is Batman's bag not me I don't want to delve in her crazy thought process unless I absolutely had to besides we have M'gann for that kind of thing. I wanted to vent with Karen about this but she said she needed a break away from the craziness and decided to fly to clear her head.
Raven Vouching for Julian just makes things more difficult as he has been slowly eroding her connection with Trigon. She gets checked out by fate every so often to ensure that she hasn't been compromised in any way. Nothing has turned up from these checks but Batman's insists that they are necessary.
Starfire is... a bit pure but meant well a characteristic that many have exploited over the years. Although I say that, it doesn't mean that she is naive and completely blind to deception which makes all the more frustrating how she can be so okay with the fact that her sister was mind controlled into loving Julian! What made it worse was he never bothered to hide it and instead let... nope! Not gonna even go down that rabbit hole.
I just want to know what is Julian's game or angle. He was openly hostile with aliens and demons yet he close with Raven and he even cultivated a relationship Komand'r. He claims to be from a alternate future and his tech seems to support his claims but there is a major issue with this as well. Although the technology is definitely human in origin the technology development styles are different. To make it clear science builds upon itself and shouldn't be a surprising that as a species develops their civilization and technology are shaped by their circumstances and ideologies. Yet Julian's technology seems like various human civilizations all starting from the same original point but branching out differently in various impossible directions yet still being human technology.
Although Kryptonians physically look similar to humans our technology is different radically so like a signature of our growth and development. It's the entire reason someone could look at another species technology and know that it's foreign. His home alone is based upon different principles from the tech used to develop robotic limbs two different schools of thought based from the same origin. Yet for some reason I don't think anyone has noticed it yet which is why I wanted to talk Karen about this! She comes from an alternate reality herself so I'm sure she might be able to credit my findings or hopefully discredit them and it is just me being paranoid. Maybe I have been hanging out with the bat family too much and their constant paranoia is just rubbing off on me.
