Love lost in the mind of a monster

[Juggernaut]

So this was it. The SHIELD helicarrier. They thought themselves secure in their superiority, there machinations in the sky keeping an eye on the defenseless people below. They thought themselves unstoppable because of these air born behemoths. But apparently his benefactor had plans to put them in their place. GPS and teleporter in hand, he was ready to wreck this thing. He knew he'd encounter trouble with this, but he was ready for it. He'd fight the army, the air force, the navy, The X-Men, anyone that got in his way. He chuckled, looking at the little silver button. A just in case trump card that he knew he'd have to be in dire consequences to play. But he had it, and that meant a lot in this game.

He looked around the flight deck, and he knew SHIELD agents would be up soon. Time to take the game to a whole new level, as he stalked off to the arsenal of fighter jets kept on board, grabbing two and tossing them at the Observation deck. If he could take out key points on the helicarrier, things would go smoothly. First, the air defenses. Then whatever the hell kept this big things weapon systems up. And finally, whatever made this thing fly.

[Citadel]

Citadel was not in Juggernaut's class when it came to strength. In fact, he wasn't even close. So, there was no way he could catch both fighters that were hurled at the observation deck of the Helicarrier. He just had to pick the one that was going to do the most damage. The other one lost a wing as it clipped the edge of the bridge and then spun away over the side of the massive airship to tumble to water below.

The jet wasn't that heavy, for a person with Citadel's level of strength and he was able to descend easily to set the fighter down. Once it was settled in place, he turned his attention towards the vandal trashing this fine piece of S.H.I.E.L.D. machinery.

"Hey, Jugghead! People don't go to your house and break your ceramic teddy bear collection. Why are you coming here to break someone else's toys?" he taunted, crossing his arms over his chest.

Citadel had few illusions about his chances in a toe to to brawl with Juggernaut. There were few people on the planet who could challenge the man and even fewer who were his match. Where were the Avengers, or the X-Men, or the Fantastic Four, or even Silver Surfer when you needed them?

[Prince Namor]

Perhaps not the back up the Eternal had hoped for, but the King of the Seas had been angered by the dropping Jet in to his oceans. Who would dare defile his kingdom with such filth? Had he not created treaties with the surface world in order to reduce pollution to his kingdom? Could they not keep their own words? He easily hefted the jet, breaking through the water to see the culprit. A SHIELD helicarrier. Their organization above all should have realized the folly of their actions. He flew, jet in hand at mach speeds towards the behemoth machine.

It seemed as though someone was causing a ruckus. The surface criminal Cain Marko, the unstoppable Juggernaut. If he'd been the one to throw the jet, then he would have to answer to Atlantean justice.

"Halt, in the name of Prince Namor of Atlantis villain, or I shall be forced to deal with you my self." he too crossed his arms over his chest, floating above the Eternal.

[Juggernaut]

Who the hell were these two jokers? They both looked like little ponces, and probably hadn't been in a real fight since grade school. Spandex and what looked like a green speedo respectfully, they didn't look like they were quite in cahoots with each other. One tried to bait him like a raging bull, making stupid little quips, and the other thought of himself as some kind of royalty, apparently of Atlantis. He'd thought that it was a Greek myth, though he supposed if Thor of all people was real, he couldn't say much for an underwater civilization.

"So let me guess, you two are dating or something? I get it. I mean, I rob banks for a living, and it's the twentieth century, so who am I to judge? But you guys should probably go to Massachusets to get married instead of the scenic SHIELD helicarrier. Don't expect it to be around much longer anyway."

He chuckled, listening to the Prince rant about stopping him. "Why don't you two ladies come and get some, so I can bitch slap you back to Atlanta of wherever it is you came from."

[Citadel]

While Namor may not have been the assistance he'd hoped for, Azara certainly wasn't going to turn his nose up at the Prince of the Seven Seas. Namor was strong and experienced and had a font of imperious anger that he could put to good use when called for. Maybe with the Atlantean's assistance he actually had a chance. He only had to hope that Namor didn't decide that he was the bad guy for some reason. The Sub-Mariner's allegiance could be a bit mercurial, after all.

"Oh, gay jokes...funny. Hilarious coming from a guy who's wearing a helmet that makes him look like an over sized sex toy," Citadel replied, certainly content to banter with his foe for a time. After all, the more Juggernaut talked, the less he smashed.

Citadel took a few steps forward and too the left, putting some space between himself and Namor. No need to be all clumped up if Juggernaut decided to charge or toss something else, after all.

"That brings up a good point, though...you rob banks for a living, so...what're you doing here? I don't see any vaults or safety deposit boxes? What suddenly made you decide to take your anger out on this poor, defenseless helicarrier. What's in it for Juggernaut?"

[Prince Namor]

"Enough of this idle banter, cretins. You have defiled my kingdom with your war large one, and now you mock the King of Atlantis, you're better. For this you shall taste the wrath of the king himself. IMPERIOUS REX!"

He flew forward, not caring whether the other one was there to back him. He required no aid in this matter, and certainly not from some jibbering idiot who spent time conversing with foes rather then stopping them. He could handle this behemoth himself in an arena he chose. With speed unequaled, he drove forward, slamming his right fist towards the monsters chest.

He'd fought monsters before in the Hulk, brutes in the form of Hercules, kings in the form of Blackbolt, and survived them all. The only difference here was that he didn't have to hold back. He could let it all out with no worry of who he hurt, for the glory of his empire under the seas. He would remind these morons why he was a king, and they were but commoners.

[Juggernaut]

This kid was begging to be decked, but just as he started to move forward, the kid asked the dumbest question in the world.

"Why in the hell would I tell you that? Isn't there some kind of hand book they hand out to you dumb asses? Rule number one, don't piss off the Juggernaut. Rule number two, don't ask the Juggernaut what he wants. Seriously, you've been reading too many Batman comics."

But then the burger king was talking again. When were people gonna figure out he didn't listen to anyone's law, much less some some two bit fish mans shtick about defiling his kingdom. As he cried out, Juggernnaut spread his arms out. "Come and get some!"

As soon as he'd spoken however, the man was a blur, heading straight for him. He felt the punch connect, chuckling for a second.... until he was thrown from his feet, and in to one of the jets on the helicarrier. He pulled himself from the wreckage, brushing steel off his shoulders, laughing a bit. "Alright, lucky shot fish boy. How about you face me man to man, blow for blow. I'll even give you a free shot."

[Dum-Dum Dugan]

Dum-Dum was not in a pleasant mood today, that was to say the least of it. This Helicarrier was his baby, entrusted to him in the wake of the Godzilla fiasco. So far, it had been attacked by Fin Fang Foom, Ultron, and now the Juggernaut. He grabbed a shotgun and walked down from the command pod to the flight deck, gathering a team of trusted agents as he did so. "Quatermain, Contessa, Levine, Jones, Manelli. Gather a team, each of you, and get down to the Flight Deck, on the double, chaps!"

He didn't break pace once as he pointed at various Agents, calling them to arms. For the most part, he was simply dealing with this as any other intruder alert would be dealt with, organizing strike teams. As it was though, he had a few tricks up his sleeve that might stop the Juggernaut yet.

He strode forward calmly, appearing totally unafraid of Cain Marko. "Oi, Marko! This is a secure facility. You're not cleared to be here, so clear out or face consequences. Do I make m'self perfectly clear, lad? Or do ye need a demonstration?"

[Citadel]

"Or we can do it this way," Citadel muttered to himself as Namor shot forward and delivered a mighty blow to Juggernaut that sent the massive man hurtling across the deck.

He wasn't going to give up whatever slim advantage they might have earned from that shot and he threw himself at his opponent, his feet leaving the deck as he took flight. He reached the man just as he was pulling himself out of the wreckage of the fighter.

"Wasn't that his free shot? I'll just take mine now." Citadel threw his own punch at Juggernaut backed by the momentum of his flight and his own superhuman strength.

"You'll pardon me if I don't let you go one on one with the Prince here, but you're a tough guy, I'm sure that you can handle it."

[Prince Namor]

He was about to take the giant up on his offer, until the boy intercepted him, slamming in to the Juggernaut. And now SHIELD forces had arrived to support them. "You fool, I had him where I wanted him. I advise you to hold back. He has defiled my kingdom with one of your jets, and he must answer to my law above all else. Now stand aside, and watch how a King deals with a criminal. IMPERIUS REX!"

He flew forward once more, to follow up on the Eternals attack, focusing his rage in to a singular point upon his fist.....

[Juggernaut]

He was caught off guard by Citadels speed, taking the hit, but being driven back a few feet, as he watched the approaching SHIELD forces. Some Irish prick trying to be the next in line to tell him what to do.

"When are you people gonna learn?" he chuckled, watching as Namor took off again. "That I'm..." he smashed his hands in to the deck below "THE JUGGERNAUT!" he roared, pulling the deck upwards forcefully, steel rippling as though it were water, as it forcibly moved upwards, pulling it towards himself, and hopefully bucking the SHIELD agents in to the air. At that moment, he turned, slamming a right hook in to Namor, knocking him towards the Eternal.

[Dum-Dum Dugan]

Dugan sighed as Juggernaut grabbed the deck. He was now in a waiting game, until the man let go of the metal - because with the way he'd been knocked back, he was right above the drop doors, and while he could run, Cain Marko had never proven himself able to fly. His finger twitched over a red button as he steeled himself, the Agents with him standing in a line to prevent the Juggernaut from getting any farther into the Helicarrier than he was.

[Citadel]

"Wow, I don't think there's even enough room on this Helicarrier for me, what with all the enormous egos floating around," Citadel said, once more talking to himself for the most part. Perhaps being the King of the Seven Seas was enough to make anyone arrogant.

He saw many of the individuals in S.H.I.E.L.D. uniforms tossed into the air and immediately moved to catch one of them before she splatted back down on the deck...or flew over the edge of the deck and plummeted into the sea far below, no doubt further infuriating Namor in the process.

And speaking of the Atlantean, he was hurtling right at him. Citadel managed to twist just enough that Namor's flying form just clipped his shoulder. The impact hurt, but worse, it knocked him off course and he barely managed to catch his target before it was too late.

"You should begin evacuation procedures, now," he told her and any of the other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who might be listening. "We won't be able to hold him off forever and you might as well be throwing rocks at him as shoot him with your guns. Itty bitty tiny rocks."

[Prince Namor]

Namor was sent barreling back, Citadels shoulder clipping his as he righted himself. While he was strong, he needed water to keep his edge. And being tested by the Juggernaut was draining. He needed water, and lots of it to keep going in this bout. If he had a constant source, then he could keep the big brute at bay. But that meant that either this helicarrier needed a sprinkler system, or he'd have to risk his kingdom, something he was unwilling to do. He could hear the boy instructing the SHIELD agents to evacuate, probably the best bet in this situation. Because is Namor couldn't hold him off, then it would be up to Dugan and the boy. And he wasn't about to put his life in the hands of two surface dwellers for anything.

He needed a plan. Perhaps he could use Dugan and the younger one as some sort of projectile, throwing them at Cain to distract him. As much as he wanted to, he knew that wouldn't really work. So how did one stop the unstoppable? Then it hit him. But he needed a distraction.

"You. Irish. Throw everything to have at him. I just need a few seconds."

[Juggernaut]

Now that he'd taken care of the attacking Prince, it was time to go on the offensive. He flexed his muscles, pulling back on the steel one one time before rocketing it upwards, as he took a few steps back. He dropped in to stance as he gave a mighty clap. It sounded like thousands of cannons firing at once, but the noise wasn't the problem. The pressure created by clapping his hands that hard had been completely unstable, as it rocketed air forward, knocking over jets, other machinery, causing it to fly towards Namor, Citadel, and the SHIELD agents.

He brought his hands together again, this time slamming them down in a hammer fist. He too needed a distraction, to pull out the GPS and teleport himself to another section of the helicarrier before anyone realized what was going on.
