The leader of the Red Guard did not seem happy about Cannonball’s rather rude remark. She was quick to stop all the conversations on the naked agent before addressing him herself, "Agent Guthrie, if you think that it is acceptable to not report in after a mission, turn off your communicator, and not show up for a mission briefing, all because you are sleeping with the princess, you have another thing coming.”
This was one of the reasons Carol loved working with Mystique, when it came to being serious, that was the bottom line for their leader. Straightening up, she addressed the room as a whole. She hadn't intended on making this briefing a lesson, but since the Hellions were there, she might as well explain some of the rules under which the guard operated. "The punishment for going AWOL," she started, "can range from having extra housekeeping duties to death. The punishment is left completely up to my discretion, and I can assure you that in this case, I would have the full support of the royal family, were I to choose something along the lines of torture."
She then gave the southerner three minutes to go and make himself presentable. Who knew seeing someone as cocky as Guthrie could be this much fun. Then the briefing got under way, "On this mission, each Hellion will be paired with a Guard member. This farm is located in Nebraska, approximately twenty miles away from a SHIELD base, in the Eastern part of the state. Routine satellite scans from the base, taken about a week after this first scan showed this. There was obviously some sort of explosion, however what really concerns us is the fact that underneath this rather unassuming structure, there seems to have been a very high tech laboratory. Some of the equipment that we have been able to identify through this photo is so advanced that we barely have prototypes fully operational in the labs here."
That was not good. Whoever was in charge of the facility must have a great deal of experience in scientific fields. The fact that this place was so close to a SHIELD base, and yet had gone unnoticed for who knew how long, did not institute much faith on SHIELD as a whole.
"We will be arriving at the location and keeping the perimeter secure while a specialized team goes in to investigate the cause of the explosion and the lab itself. Are there any questions so far?" Agent Darkholme said finishing. Nope no questions from Carol. Just tell her what to do and she would do it. From what the list had said the Hellion she would be paired with was Elixir. She did not know much about him besides the fact that he was a healer. Turning to the boy she gave him a wink that was accompanied with a thumbs up.
