Punisher has posed:
It's been weeks now since the Punisher started surveillance and setting up his plans on the warehouse. The electronic cloaking, along with the fact that the two mutated animal-humans went in there has made it clear something big is going on inside, and the Punisher is nothing if not patient and meticulous about his work. He has all the time in the world... but even one of the best commandos on Earth can't keep his activities around the warehouse hidden for months on end.

Eventually, something will have to give if he wants to keep this up, and he knows it.

Still, a measure of how long it takes to spot him is useful information in itself.

The drones have long since been replaced with covert surveillance cameras around the block, hidden well enough that only those who might be actively looking for them would find them. Of course, placing such equipment without being noticed takes time, and a bit of luck... and his luck just ran out today.

Today, he's on a nearby roof, installing a periscope designed camera in one corner of it. Just next to him is a small crate of weapons as a backup in case something goes wrong.

Shredder has posed:
    Indeed, rooftops are not the most covert locations when dealing with the Foot. They are a primary means of travel for their own operations. The security cameras that Frank installed weren't the only ones around, and as he reached the roof, Karai watched the monitor.

    "How long has he been doing this?" she asks.

    "A few weeks," is the answer the security supervisor answers. "Hasn't made any moves, but he's stashing weapons around. He's planning something."

    "Do we know who he's working for?" the young Japanese woman continues the line.

    "Not yet."

    "Let's find out."

    The assassins wear their red masks, and exit through the tunnel in the basement of the warehouse. They open the iron gate, and make their way through the gray water pipe until they reach the ideal runoff. They squeeze through the opening at the base of the building and make their way up the three hidden corners of the building using their claws as climbing hooks. Wordlessly they begin the operation as an egg comes flying over the edge of the building toward Frank. Not a bomb as many might use. Not even a smoke bomb. The contents of the eggshell are a nasty blend of spices and ash. A ninja's flashbang, a metsubushi. Anyone caught by the burst of powder can find themselves blinded temporarily, and the smelly concoction is disorienting, making it difficult to respond easily.

Punisher has posed:
An ambush. The Punisher had been waiting for it for weeks, but he didn't expect actual eggshell bombs. He reflexively grabs an MP7 out of the crate next to him as he moves out of the cloud. He catches the edge of it, disorienting the Punisher, and partially blinding him for a moment. He can barely see when the Foot ninjas come up to meet him.

"About fuckin' time. All that defense, and you're just gonna let me encircle it? I didn't think so." Punisher grates out as he starts turning in place for a brief observation, his MP7 in standby position at his chest as he starts to dash for another rooftop unsteadily.

Seems he's trying to buy himself time for the effects to wear off, and is pushing through the cocktail of spice to do it.

Shredder has posed:
    As Punisher starts to dash toward the roof edge, the Foot Assassin on that corner leaps over, and makes a beeline straight for him, seeking to engage before he can see clearly again, while the two on another corner and the last on the third hidden corner leap up, moving to intercept from the four and eight o'clock positions.

    The one heading straight for Frank dives forward, a foot slide across the pebbly rooftop in an attempt to meet with one of his feet to trip up the ex-military vigilante.

Punisher has posed:
At this point, the Punisher is ready for anything, and fires the MP7 in a raging "RRAGGGHHHHHHHH!" at the Foot soldier to distract or disable him at full-auto.

He can't see very well... but pray and spray is still a very valid tactic... and he doesn't stop.

Once the magazine is empty, or the Foot ninja is only feet away from him, the MP7 is dropped, and out comes his Ka-Bar. The trip attempt succeeds.... but he uses his forward momentum to perform a roll. It's an unsteady roll... but the Punisher has practiced in these conditions before, so muscle memory kicks in and he comes up standing, squinting slightly as he tries to get a bead on his opponent.

"YOU WANT ME?! COME AND GET ME!" Punisher roars at them as he waits. He realizes running in his condition with someone right next to him is a bad idea until can get a full accounting of his situation.

The Ka-bar is brought up into a defensive position as he studies them.

Shredder has posed:
    The Foot Assassin slides under the roll and firepower as his foot connects, and meets ranks with the other three. They are all dressed exactly alike. Red hoods, clawed fingers, black uniforms and gray sleeves. They fan out, then strike...or...

    Rearrange? As the quadro burst forth, just before they reach Punisher they pivot, trading positionings to make it difficult to track them all. The first to the third position, the second to the fourth. Then second to the first, and third to the fourth. Like a well practiced dance, they shift and shift before one of them suddenly slashes out with his or her claws, aimed at Frank's forward facing foot.

Punisher has posed:
"You assholes really need to work on your color schemes. You look ridiculous." Punisher shoots at them as he dodges to one side. His Ka-Bar strikes out as he rolls once again, trying to catch the legs or torso on the one to his right in mid-air before he comes back up again, "That all you got?" His mocking tone continues.

Is he intentionally poking the hornets nest now? It seems like it. But then, he seems pretty confident in his odds.

Shredder has posed:
    The Foot Assassin catches the strike, deflecting with his claws as another takes the same moment to strike a bladed stab toward Punisher's back, like a coordinated savate, the defense of one is used as the offense of another. Another vaults into the air, leaping over Punisher to land on the other side and put him in a box between the four ninjas. They make no response to the jab, as if they didn't even hear it.

Punisher has posed:
Not emotional thugs. No rage. No serious weaknesses at first glance to exploit...

It's a bit along the lines of what The Punisher expected, but he didn't expect whoever it was to go so overkill in their response. This was like sending out Batman to fight some Triad soldier. Another useful bit of information for tactics.

The bladed stab manages to hit his back... and finds purchase against his vest. It doesn't go through, but it does smart a bit, "Well then."

He pulls a flash grenade from his gear web with his free hand, and tosses it to the ground directly at his feet for a contact detonation. Covering his eyes, he waits for that split second afterwards to make a run for it.

Shredder has posed:
    The burst of light catches the team off guard as they have no opportunity to truly prepare. The shock of light blinding them while the piercing decibels cost them their hearing. An immediate retreat forms, and they recoil backward, putting themselves back to back, unable to clearly know what is coming to them next.

    It gives Punisher the opportunity to make his escape without pursuit as the team tries to listen futiley for the sounds of their enemy.

Punisher has posed:
Exactly as planned.

He takes off running to the next rooftop, tossing a frag grenade back onto the rooftop where the Foot soldiers are. It's probably not going to kill them outright... but the fragmentation... oh, that'll hurt if they can't figure out it's there.

Meanwhile, Punisher is making a break for one of his sniper nests, heading for one of his rappel lines up to the top of a nearby building and intending to finish them off from afar in the confusion.

Shredder has posed:
    One of the four seems to register the grenade in time, and shoves hard against the rest, knocking them all prone as the explosion announces the combat to the rest of the neighborhood. One mask is shorn off, exposing the face of one. It's a girl, and she's young. How young may be difficult to say, but she's certainly not old enough to even be out of college. Her blonde hair is cropped close, cut like a boy's, and she scrambles to her feet first, blinking and looking around. Punisher no longer clearly visible, she starts to help the others up, a streak of blood trickling down her cheek where the shrapnel passed it.

    She continues to glance around as the others get up, and then one of them points, spotting the Punisher as he starts to ascend on the rappel line. They burst forward, leaping to the next building as they try to catch up to the one man army before he can get in position.

Punisher has posed:
Arm over arm, his feet barely register on the side of the building as his gigantic arms pull him up to the roof with the speed of an Olympian. A grapnel gun would have been better for this... but he didn't have time to grab it from the crate.

Once it becomes clear the Foot soldiers are coming for him again though, it makes a sniper attack impossible.

Luckily for him, he has time to take a few pot shots with his spare SIG P228 at his holster, finding the closest target and trying for disabling shots.

He wants to try to take one prisoner if he can... though that isn't looking likely at this point. What with the training the four have demonstrated so far.

Shredder has posed:
    One of the masked ninjas takes a bullet to the leg, going to the ground and rolling to land behind an AC unit for cover while the others burst forth. One of them pulls small orb the size of a baseball from a pounch on his belt, and slings it toward the top of the building. A contact grenade, but this one isn't a flashbang. A siren in the distance can be heard. Apparently people report grenades and gunshots.

Punisher has posed:
Baseball grenades? What?

"You people have some weird shit in your arsenal." Punisher quips as he aims his P228, breath out... *POP* a miss *POP* direct hit to the grenade halfway up to the rooftop. "You're gonna have to try harder than that, assholes." Punisher grouses, before he empties the last couple of rounds in the magazine at the one behind cover. He turns and runs for the nearby battle rifle cache right after, pulling the HK417 from it and rapidly loading the magazine in.

"Microchip, they finally responded, and the police are on their way. Get the drones in position and monitor them. I want to know if they're helpin' these assholes or arresting them." Punisher barks out over the transceiver to his partner. "You got it, Frank. Drones will be there in thirty seconds." Microchip responds as Punisher grabs the spare P228 magazines from the cache into his gear web and moves into cover, trying to get out of line of sight of the ninjas so he can setup his own ambush.

Looks like The Punisher isn't going anywhere for now.

Nemean has posed:
The blood trail from that fox girl lead him to this warehouse district. What are the odds that within a few days, some kind of massive gunfight would break out here. Explosions and automatic fire are not normal in this neighborhood, no matter what one would consider about a bad part of town.

Multiple police cars are racing to the scene, but one of them is an unmarked federal car. The vehicle skids to a stop near the scene, but far enough away to not be actively shot. Cody gets out of the vehicle, the trunk opening up as he moves to the back, grabbing his tactical vest and an AR. It's been a busy few days for him, but that's the job, after all. Once he's geared up, he begins to move towards the sound of the gunfire and explosions, keeping an eye out for anyone who looks like they may be a hostille, or a fleeing civilian.

Ghost Spider has posed:
Gwen was on a pretty late lunch, her day job, which is no less intense than her usual night job, keeps her too busy some days.

She isn't so distracted by work that she doesn't hear a grenade going off a few blocks away and forget her dirty water dog. "Shoot." of course she doesn't recognize the explosion as a grenade, no ear for that yet in her fledgling hero career. The gunfire she does recognize though.

Tossing the hot dog in a trash can she races off down an alley and then leaps after turning a corner. Running up far enough to get momentum to.. THWIP and swing up to a roof. From there she is pulling her hood over her head and then removing articles of clothes and stuffing them in bags as she races across the roof and leaps to the next one.

Headed fast to the gunfire.

Shredder has posed:
    As Punisher fires off the round that detonates the grenade, the shock of the percussion echoes off the city walls. By the time the blast has cleared though, the ninjas have cleared from sight. By the time Punisher looks back from gathering his rifle, they've left the rooftop. Or at least they've left immediate view on the rooftop. Possibly the one who was wounded is still behind the AC, but is not currently in the line of sight. There are a few places on the roof immediately that would be hiding places. The taller warehouse that Punisher is perched on may have few places immediately present to hide, but it does beg the question...where did they go? The breeze gently pulls the waft of smoke from the grenade through the air, dragging it out toward the river, and for the moment, it's quiet.

Punisher has posed:
Cat and mouse? Punisher can do cat and mouse.

The quiet remains as Punisher starts to methodically check the rooftop he's on, his Ka-Bar ready and waiting on his gear web as he checks his corners and lines of sight as he moves around in short bursts. He's moving steathily, his boots barely making a whisper as he conducts his search.

Nemean has posed:
No civilians, as far as Cody can tell. The gunfire has stopped. Great. Hard to triangulate where gunfire is coming from in an urban environment anyway, though it wouldn't be the first time.

The agent continues to move through the street towards where the gunfire was initially coming from, "Either everybody killed each other or there's something else going on.." He mutters to himself, keeping his rifle at the ready as he moves.

Ghost Spider has posed:
Gwen is still miles away from being sneaky and not flashy as she finishes the rest of the trip in the air instead of leaping across rooftops.

The young woman swings in on a webline, probably seen as a white, pink, and black blur from down below and lands on the warehouse where fight started, missing the sneaky Punisher up on the higher rooftop for the moment.

God she needs so much practice and training.

Gwen's head turns this way and that as she takes in the rooftop, the smoke from the grenade, the AC unit.

Without anyone aiming to hurt her though her spidersense doesn't flare up hard, though there is a low buzz of danger right now which has her crouch and adopt a more cautious posture, ready to dodge suddenly. "Ollie Ollie Oxenfree?"

Shredder has posed:
    Back in the Foot Warehouse, Karai frowns. "So, not as dumb as he looks," she comments dryly. Bring up the satellite feed." A few moments later, she's watching the security screen as the police begin to arrive, along with a webslinger, and then at the injured assassin near Gwen. She goes to the system and patches to the assassin's radio...

    A few seconds later, a young man, African American, calls out to Gwen from behind the AC unit. "Look out! There's a psycho up on the roof over there!" He wears a black and gray outfit, but contrary to the clawed gloves that Punisher saw, his hands are now bare. He's bleeding from his left thigh, blood dripping on the pebble black tar rooftop. He gestures in Punisher's direction.

Punisher has posed:
Punisher dead stops soon as he hears the shouting. "Microchip, they're hiding out around the rooftops. They know I've got good vision of them. Find them and pipe them into my feed." Punisher whispers into his transceiver, before he heads for the rooftop access to the building, opening the door and going into the building proper.

Being on the rooftop would be predictable. Time to change up the playing field and find a new field of view to his targets from one of the apartments.

Nemean has posed:
White and pink and black blur is still something. The roof it looks like that blur landed on is enough for him, as the FBI agent moves to an access door for the building, opening it up and entering. He then turns his radio to the NYPD frequency, "Break break. This is FBI Agent Garrett. I am on scene at the warehouse firefight, plain clothes. Get a perimiter established, nobody comes in or out."

That done, he starts working up to the roof in the stairwell. He trusts the NYPD to set up the perimiter and get ESU on scene, but he also knows he can't wait for that if there's an active shooter.

Ghost Spider has posed:
Gwen just about thwips the young african american gentleman who warns her about the active shooter. "Okay.. uh... stay under cover it sounds like the cops and ambulances should be there very soon." she pauses and then flicks her hand at him and webs the guys leg coating his thigh and staunching the bleeding with .. spiderwebbing.

Then she turns and runs to the side of the other building and ignores the rappel line the Punisher used. Instead she leaps up and then races nimbly up the side of the building and vaults onto the roof, landing and splaying low minimizing her vulnerability while looking around the roof. Nothing to immediately see she starts to sweep the roof slowly heading towards the access door.

Ghost Spider has posed:
The young spider-woman does pause on her sweep of the roof to thwip thwip a milkcrate full of weaponry, the SMG and magazines rendered very stuck and not able to be used against her or anyone else until the webbing breaks down a while from now.

Shredder has posed:
    The young man nods to Gwen, looking down at the webbing that now covers his wound. As she makes off after Frank, he strugles to his feet, taking the claws taht were on his hands, and tucking them into his sash so that only the cloth of the glove is exposed before making his way to the fire escape. He starts to descend carefully, genuinely injured by the bullet from Frank.

    Inside the warehouse, the crates and boxes lay in organized rows, a large 18 wheeler backed up to the dock door with its door shut. A second level of simple offices line the overhanging structure with a railed catwalk, accessible from the roof access. The Foot, however, continue not to show themselves, until one does. Oddly, back at the original camera that was being installed, one of the Foot assassins suddenly appears on the camera, just long enough to break it off its stand and toss it off the roof before darting back toward the fire escape. The camera lands and breaks on the ground near Cody.

Punisher has posed:
"These people are all sorts of weird. Now they're usin' the cops as a shield." Punisher muses over the transceiver. "Drone shows a group of police coming up the stairwell, and someone just came in through the roof access, Frank. I don't know who the one from the top was, but they ran up the building. Some sort of wall gripping." Microchip relays.

It takes Punisher all but a moment to make the decision. Priorities have shifted. Time to hide and grab one of the police coming up.

The HK is slung over his shoulder, and a VP9 is taken from his non-lethal holster, filled with rubber rounds and silenced.

Once Cody is nearly up the stairs... he's suddenly grabbed out of the stairwell out of nowhere, tossed from the landing into the hallway, and his gun kicked away, with that silenced pistol aimed right for his head, "We need to talk." The Punisher states, simply.

Cody will easily see the trenchcoat and white skull vest. If he's kept up with current news at all, he'll recognize The Punisher.

Nemean has posed:
Cody was with the NYPD ESU before he was with the FBI. And before that he was in the Marines. He knows who Frank Castle is. It's hard not to. Of course he didn't expect to be running into The Punisher face first..Or rather, muzzle first, really. He doesn't even have time to react as he gets grabbed by his tactical vest from behind, his AR going one way while he spills into the hall.

He was going to grab for his sidearm but when he finds the gun pointed straight at him, he opts to slowly raise his hands, "Frank Castle. I should have figured if someone was shooting up a warehouse in broad daylight it might be you.." He's heard that The Punisher won't kill cops or innocents, but he's not really in a position to put that to the test right now, "You want to talk, lets talk. I know who you are, so I should tell you that I'm a federal agent. Cody Garrett."

Ghost Spider has posed:
Gwen studies the stairs down into the building where she thwippedd the gun case, then looks out over the other buildings. She hopes the poor shot guy is okay.

Come on Gwen pull up your big girl tights and get on with it.

Slowly Gwen starts to head down the steps into the building, as alert as she can manage, which is mixed. If someone is going to shoot at her she can dodge without realizing it. If someone means her no harm she is liable to trip over them.

The young woman slows when she catches the tail end of someone saying they are a federal agent.

Shredder has posed:
    Between the truck and the entrance to the warehouse, the girl who was unmasked earlier slips in silently, and on toes and fingers, she scampers low across the warehouse floor to listen as Punisher speaks to Cody. Slowly, she pulls her own grenade from her sash, but stays her hand, switching to an intel gathering mode for the moment, back against a stack of cardboard.

Punisher has posed:
"Frank Castle's been dead for years. Call me Punisher." Punisher grates out, "believe it or not, I didn't actually shoot up anything until a bunch of fuckin' ninjas came at me. It was purely self-defense this time." Punisher squints his eyes slightly, watching Cody, "I've been doin' surveillance on what I'm pretty sure is their HQ." He gives a side nod gesture in the general direction of the warehouse he was watching, "they're usin' you to deal with me now, hanging back and pretendin' to be 'normal'. Bunch of assholes are tryin' to consolidate the underworld." Punisher continues.

Then, he points fowards the stairwell with his free hand, "I'm not interested in hurtin' you. I got nothin' against you, but they've obviously backed off to let your people deal with me. I've got most of what I need, so I'm gonna get out of here. You gonna try and stop me?"

Nemean has posed:
"A few days ago I would have thought you were crazy, saying you got attacked by ninjas." He pauses for a moment. Punisher is crazy regardless, but the ninja part not so much, "Honestly, I know even if I tried to stop you, you'd probably put a bullet in my leg for my trouble. And I've been running my own investigation which lead me to this area not too long ago. If it's true and that's their HQ, I can bring down the whole FBI on them."

He briefly considers the situation. He has Punisher and could tighten the noose, but his conversation with Alopex told him that there's a lot more going on and if Frank is against it...Then he's on the right track, "Alright look, here's the deal. Punch me in the face." He says, as he stands up, "I gotta make it look good at least. You know the drill, I'm sure."

Ghost Spider has posed:
Gwen frowns behind her mask, ninjas, turning people on the Punisher. That does seem pretty far fetched.

Though why would the Punisher shoot a random kid on a warehouse roof unless he was some sort of criminal .. or ninja.. needing punished. It really is in the name right.

Not that Gwen trusts murdering vigilantes or condones it, but there is a pretty good chance that things may be more complicated than first glance and maybe she got snowed.

"So you're saying that the warehouse next door is full of criminal ninjas and they are trying to get a monopoly on crime in New York?" yeah she basically announces herself from where she is stopped in the same stairwell he just indicated he wanted to leave through.

"Maybe I should go take a look." I mean it is that or she tries to take down the Punisher in a narrow stairwell or warehouse. Cripes. She cautiously peeks around the edge of the stairwell, easily able to jerk back if there are any shots thanks to her spider sense and reflexes.

She pauses then when her spider senses flare up, not .. quite about her really.. what is.. so.. annoying.. oh .. "Look out!" the warning shouted at Cody and Frank, leaning back into full cover.

Shredder has posed:
    The blonde ninja listens, not liking what she's hearing. This agent isn't cooperating the way he should. So she makes a call. Eliminate them both. She chunks the bomb, a contact explosive that will detonate as soon as it strikes something with enough force, up the stairs toward them.

    She hadn't anticipated someone with a precognitive reflex being present to warn just before the grenade left her hand, and the surprise causes her to bolt, leaving the attack to succeed or fail as she bursts in full speed back toward the gap between the truck and bay door that she came in through.

Punisher has posed:
Gwen gives Punisher just enough time to react. He's one of the best marksman in the world, but even he can't fire fast enough to keep out of the edge of the explosion...

What he /can/ do, is put himself between the grenade and Cody, and he brings up his pistol with rubber rounds and begins to rapid fire at it, trying to explode it far enough away from himself that that explosion doesn't seriously injure him.

Still, that close? That's gonna fucking /hurt/, especially since he's put himself between it and Cody intentionally.

Nemean has posed:
The warning from Gwen catches Cody off guard, and Frank apparently reacts to it before he does. As Frank steps in front of him, between him and the grenade, he moves to draw his sidearm. He's not sure what the threat is, but he knows he'd better be ready. Of course he's not going to be ready for the inevitable explosion, but at least he should make a good landing pad for Frank.

Ghost Spider has posed:
If Gwen was more like Spider-man she could have webbed up that grenade.. alas such novice much boom wow.

"Holy crap!" is what Gwen exclaims when there is another grenade explosion, and then she is back even before the dust settles .. maybe before the explosion is even done.. well exploding entirely. "Ninjas.. wow" leaping towards Frank and Cody. Well to be specific to the side of them, kicking up off the wall even as she leaps down the stairs and launching herself over them.

Yeah Spider-Gwen aka Ghost Spider aka Younger and better looking Spider Woman (Don't tell Drew) is racing to try to follow and catch the grenade throwing Ninja now.

She isn't Flash fast, but she is much faster than any normal human. Much.

Shredder has posed:
    The grenade goes off, the heat ane concussive force striking out as it lashes toward those who have meddled with the Foot's operations. The blonde is just reaching the gap as Gwen vaults forward, a full on sprint as she hits the ground, running for the edge of the building. The unfortunate thing for this particular young ninja, warehouses don't have a lot of angles to use for cover before she can reach the corner.

Punisher has posed:
The concussive force would have been a lot worse if Punisher hadn't caught it in time... but it's still pretty close when it goes off, and the boom sends Punisher right back into Cody /hard/, sending Cody and Punisher against the wall hard enough to knock the wind out of their lungs.

Of course, Punisher took the brunt... and he's visibly taken some shrapnel to the arms and legs, with a couple pieces embedded in his vest.

He's not out, but he's definitely visibly disoriented from taking the frontal blast that hard for the moment.

Nemean has posed:
The concussion and force knocks both of them down. Cody hits the wall, then Frank hits Cody, and they both tumble into a heap.

The agent slowly pushes himself up to his hands and knees, looking over to see Castle bleeding, but also still alive, "Shit. Hold on." He's taken combat lifesaver courses but he's no medic. He might be able to stem the bleeding from some of the shrapnel wounds, if Punisher holds still long enough for him to do it. The guy did just save his life after all.

He has a small first aid kit attached to his vest, and he pulls a field bandage out from inside of it, checking to see if Frank has had any of his major arteries hit, since that'd need to be a priority.

There's a good chance he might still end up getting punched in the face.

Ghost Spider has posed:
Much faster. Though maybe she should have stopped and helped the federal agent and murdering vigilante. Well moving too fast now.

Gwen keeps moving forward even as she brings her hands up and THWIP THWP THIPWIty THWIP.... alternating a bit there.

The first thwip sprays webbing in front of the blonde Ninja on the off chance she runs right into it, which is both effective and comical.

The other thwips are aimed where Gwen thinks she may jump or pivot and burst away from the first web. Trying to nail the Ninja in webbing without getting within arms reach of the other young woman.

Not that she is slowing her charge forward eating the distance between her and her target rapidly. "Don't make this harder than it has to be!" ah ever an optimist.

Shredder has posed:
    The first web is evaded, the ninja tucking and pivoting to the side just as expected by Gwen. The second strikes her square in the back, and she finds herself slammed against the wall of the warehouse by one arm. Her other hand comes up, claws raised as she prepares to cut herself free without delay. She didn't give even as much as a grunt though from the impact, remaining completely silent.

Nemean has posed:
After patching Punisher up as best he can, Cody hefts the guy to his feet, "No Marine left behind, Castle." He says, as he hefts him up into a fireman's carry, and begins to slowly take him out of the warehouse. Honestly he should be kicking himself, he's violating so many laws at the moment, but he knows there's something bigger going on and can't let that feeling slide.

Getting back to his car, he puts Frank in the back seat, and tosses a blanket over him so none of the NYPD will see the bleeding vigillante in his back seat.

He drives up to the perimiter, flashing his badge at one of the cops who waves him through, and takes off, "Honestly Punisher, I have no idea where to drop you off, so if you got a secret underground vigilante doctor you need me to take you to, I could use some coordinates."

Ghost Spider has posed:
Well okay that is creepy. The silent thing. I mean usually criminals curse or make urrf noises or something. "Or don't make this harder than it has to be." exasperated tones.

Thwip. Thwip.

With the Ninja stuck to the wall with webbing that can hurl a car around her head like a morning star Gwen fires a couple more bursts of webbing at the Ninja. Aiming for her torso first to really stick her to the wall and then for the clawed hand before she can cut herself free.

When she gets close enough to the other woman to reach out and touch her she stops and cocks her head. Then steps back before she can be kicked for all her trouble. "Bad ninja. Spider got your tongue?"

Which is when she webs her legs and then looks around. Damn why aren't the cops coming in, usually they come in and pick up criminals at this point.

Shredder has posed:
    And indeed the cops do come. The young woman doesn't speak though, apparently the spider does have her tongue. She takes a neutral expression, closing her eyes, a look of self-disappointment on her face.

    When the cops arrive, the young lady goes without a fight, though she does give her web slinging captor a certin knowing grin as she gets in the car, as if she knows something the other doesn't. Exactly what? Well, she wouldn't get to smile if they knew.
