Backstitch's eyes lit up with fire, and he pulled a pistol out from his jacket. "You. Put. My brother. DOWN. You get one chance." Infernid smirked, lowering himself down onto his hooves as the appendages held onto the stallion above him "As. You. Wish." using the pony's weight as momentum, Infernid's legs catapult the stallion at his pistol weilding partner. Whether he missed or hit was hardly a concern, for either presented an opportunity to strike and grab the files. He was beginning to question if this was a hero's agenda or not, but somehow it felt right to do. No sooner had the pony left his grip was he back onto his augments, the ground a filthy feeling beneath his armoured hooves. Was the character Infernid always this vain, or was this a byproduct of a previous identity? Unsure but not unfocused, Infernid waited to stingstingfeedeatsting respond to a counter. Backstitch's eyes narrowed, and, in his eyes, time went slow. He reached into the air, blocking, and subsequently plucking his brother out of the air. In the same movement, he looked over Cross' body, shooting over it at one of Infernid's legs. Time sped back up to normal time. "I'm not entirely sure that you think you're entitled to randomly attacking ponies on the street." Laser jumped back as Cross slid across the ground in front of him. "Hey, woah, you alrigh- wait, hold up a second!" He reached down, and pulled up the "criminal". "Guys, I know this guy, he's my tailor. Whatcha doin' here, Cross?" The pony looked off to the side. "I... don't know." Backstitch turned around, raising his eyebrow.

Nightwing reached the spot of the fight, silently observing in his shadowy veil. "Now... What's going on here?" he said—almost inaudibly—to himself. He had to get an idea of what he was getting into, after all. The last thing he needed was to get himself killed, after all.
If all else failed, he could just leave...

Wavelength heard a bit of commotion followed by, oddly enough, an exchange between apparent neighbors. At this point, he didn't know what to think, so he elected to just stay put and wait. Appearing now might raise a panic. He tuned up his suit's audio sensors to listen for commotion and stepped back out of the alley way to have a brief look around at the outside world to make sure it wasn't falling apart around them, mostly for lack of anything better to do at that instant. He could reach the group in less than two seconds if he was needed.

There was the sound of violence ahead, and then the distinct voices of Siphon, and the Doublecross Duo, directly ahead as Lady Amber and the Vanishing Caretaker, as well as Nightwing, carefully made their way forward. "It seems we have found our target... who... might not be the Siphon we remember, if you know what I mean," noted the enchantress silently. Care vanishing into the shadows cloaking her self the only thing heard was the sound made by her pack when it bounced on her back. She sheaths the harm based medigun and draws the heal based one getting ready to tend to the injured one's healing needs. Care continues to follow the path given by the GPS and comes upon the scene with Siphon and the others. From the shadows nearest to them, a voice is heard by them. " Did someone call for a doctor?"

The Lady of the Enchanted Woods continued to stay hidden from all detection within her glamor and warped space, but readied a second alternate dimension and several Nature Energy spheres in case the situation turned grimmer than expected.

Nightwing had decided to engage, flashing an unnoticeable smile to himself as he crept towards the others. He moved, unknowingly, towards Lady Amber, silently positioning himself to... "Looks like you are going to need some assistance," He said to the others, uncloaking just enough to show a phantom outline of himself for a second before fully concealing himself again. "Oh, and my name is Nightwing," he introduced himself properly to Care.

Infernid lunged to the side, dodging the shot with the unreal grace his augments bestowed upon him. "I could very much ask you a similar question, dear sir, though I would instead inquire what world entitles you to a concealed firearm in a very public setting?" he asked in a pleasant tone, curiously seldom angering even when he had to take evasive measures. In fact, he was rather enjoying himself with these new preypreypreystingthemstingthem ponies.
Infernid didn't even turn, yet grinned whimsically all the same. "I rather much doubt anypony here is of need of medical assistance, though psychological I am not sure any of us are in a sound state of mind, hm?" Infernid's posture relaxed a little, enough to appear less threatening to preyanypony who may be witnessing this scuffle "Infernid, by the way, happy to meet your aquaintence, doctor. My colleage over there has yet to introduce himself to even me, yet I think it best we take pause before his interrorgation is over..."

care Stays to the darkness lest her cloak fade but waits for a chance. When these two seam to have just dodged and their guard not on her. She throws from the shadows a small device. On it is a medical red cross sign on one side and a body wrapped in electricity on the other.
((Enter the paralysis antiseptics. Para Bombs are a medical tool used to render an opponent unable to move. it has a 3 GM post cool down. it is an AOE attack affecting all within 10ft of the impact zone. not very accurate but AoE range makes up for it. duration is 2 GM posts. proper anti-gas gear such as a muzzle mask also prevents the effects.))
Care places her medical mask over her muzzle to protect herself from the gas itself. If successful all current parties in combat within 10ft of the center between them will be paralyzed for a short duration. She changes her location, letting the sounds of the engagement drown out her movements. She Then waits to see if her Para Bomb does its job.

Though this was clearly never intended to be a fight that came to blows, Infernid could not help but wish it had. The audacity of the unseen doctor and her paralyzing pellet had certainly escalated the conflict from a brief interrogation of vagabonds to a best ing of other technology. Though his body momentarily shut itself down, the gas seeping into his system halting the information travelling to and from his nerve ends, it failed to cease activity in his augmented legs, which could be controlled with a little effort if in jerkier movements. Infernid's cheeks were beginning to hurt, however, the gas had left him with a glassy grin which left him far from able to voclise his amusement at the current situation.

from the shadows near by care *sighs* and says to the others, not dropping her cloak just yet, "Don't worry, it won't hurt them. I wanted to keep blood from being spilt here. I am The Vanishing Caretaker. Who would you be?"

Laserbolt instantly dropped Cross, and his helmet enveloped his face. His breathing could be heard among everypony in the group. The brothers, however, collapsed immediately. Then, he turned to Care as she told them her name. "Vanishing Caretaker? That one of the new ones? Never heard of her. In any case, my name's Siphon. Pleased to meetcha."

Care Comes out of the shadows dropping her cloak. Care says, while keeping her senses about her, "It seams we have an epidemic on our hooves. Nice to meat you as well Siphon. Careina got your message and told me right away. I would have been here sooner had it not been for a check up I was in the middle of when I received it. Why the summons? Also do you know these two? Don't worry, as I said before. The gas contained in the bomb is merely a tool to keep patients from moving while I tend to them. I used it here because well I didn't want to see any blood shed that I would have had to heal. Plus my pack is at 25% charge. I will need to change the supply out soon." Care points to the ones called Bait and Switch.

Laserbolt picked up one of them, Backstitch, and shook him. "Well, they look like the Doublecross Duo, but they're actually... I think, some tailors that live in Canterlot. To be honest, I'm very confused."

Lady Amber blinked, then abruptly de-cloaked herself, appearing as if out of thin air directly in front of Laserbolt and dropping her act.
"Wait. Let me get this straight. NONE of us are from this world?"
She looked at the tailors, the scientist, the agent, the nurse and the rest.
"All right, let's start over. We obviously got off on the wrong hoof, and our... in-character personalities aren't exactly the most friendly, so what say we start over and introduce ourselves, BOTH of ourselves? Hi, I'm Amber, and I was an ecology student from Manehattan University. I have no idea how I got here, but I was in the middle of collecting samples in the Everfree Forest when... 'it' happened. I woke up over in the Enchanted Woods as somepony called 'Lady Amber'. Nice to meet you all. Does ANYPONY have any idea what's going on?"
