"what kinda man am I..."

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@Vampre_Hunter @W1DOWSB1TE @1nvncbleIronMan @GeneralHeckman @clawinghowlett @JUNGLEG1RL Atlas drops down, the city trembling in the indestructible mans wake.

"Don't worry pal. They ambush us, and I take the shots."

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@Vampre_Hunter @W1DOWSB1TE @JUNGLEG1RL @1nvncbleIronMan @GeneralHeckman Atlas smiles, cracking his knuckles

"Alright, let's do it!"

He starts growing in size a small amount

"They ain't gotta chance!"

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@1nvncbleIronMan @Vampre_Hunter @W1DOWSB1TE @GeneralHeckman @clawinghowlett "I say we divide ourselves in half."

He rubs his chin

"Some go for cowl, some for leader. Put more on leader, he ain't that strong! Just smart! We can overwhelm him on the field!"

"Plus, after a few punches to the head..."

He chuckles

"He ain't gonna be so smart."

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@ZemoHelmutBaron @Imshockingit @Cindysdreamgod @MachXBeetle - behind the group.

The object stands tall, a golden a shining on its chest- revealing the object as the mighty Atlas!

"Heya Abe! Why's shocker here!?"

Atlas cracks his knuckles, looking down at zemo and slightly shrinking

"Who we beatin' senseless, baron? Is it all of em?"

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@ZemoHelmutBaron @Imshockingit @Cindysdreamgod @MachXBeetle But what of the helicopter that zemo came down from?

Well... Something in it began to expand. The walls push outwards, bulge and creak, until BAM! it bursts in the air!

The object from within the plane Cascades down, and keeps on growing as it crashes to the ground -

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@1nvncbleIronMan @clawinghowlett @Vampre_Hunter @W1DOWSB1TE @GeneralHeckman "or er- we can save this for *no* time"

He rubs the back of his head

"No need to hurt each other."

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@ZemoHelmutBaron He sighs, looking around

"Yeah... Yeah I will."

He starts to walk out

"I'll call the others. We won't do this alone. I'll be there when they attack next."

He fully walks out, contemplating.

The avengers ain't gonna like it... But no matter what, Atlas is stopping the L bolts

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

Atlas has seen the news. The reports. Heard the stories. He saw a lightning bolt attack firsthand at the hellfire gala.

Atlas knows they need the #WORLDSCHAMPIONS in the world, But the person who called him...

Was the *opposite* of a champion.

Baron zemo called Atlas here.

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@ZemoHelmutBaron ...

He ponfers over the question. Muttering one thing under his breath.

"He's right."

He raises his voice to full volume again

"Saya Ishii is in charge of them. They're pretending to be heroes. Like our old thing... But worse."

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@ZemoHelmutBaron "yer no magician..."

He rolls his eyes, shrinking back to normal size and crossing his arms

"Yeah. They are. And I'm sure you are too. Just based on evidence."

He raises an eyebrow at zemo

"Haven't answered that question either, Baron."

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@ZemoHelmutBaron - about that. HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT!"

he stops, looking around... Don't get mad Erik... Zemo brings up some stuff with Erik... But don't get mad.

"And why should I tell you what I know, exactly?"

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@ZemoHelmutBaron His eyes follow zemo, returning the scowl Erik was certain Zemo had under the mask.

"What do you care about the thunderbolts legacy? Isn't this what you wanted from it?? What they're doing now?"

His eyes snap wide open as soon as zemo mentions the avengers

"How do you know -

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

- the news? About the lightning bolts?"

Eric knows all about the bolts already. Knows way damn more then zemo. Zemo won't even know who's in charge yet.

So if the baron is calling about them, it might be time for Eric to take the educating position...

[ @ZemoHelmutBaron ]

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

This confused the hell out of Eric, and it took him away from the avengers work he was supposed to be doing, but when a man like the baron calls... You don't hang up.

"Zemo. Tell me why I'm here. Now."

He grunts, stepping forward and slightly growing

"I'm assuming you saw -

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@clawinghowlett @1nvncbleIronMan @Vampre_Hunter @GeneralHeckman @JUNGLEG1RL Atlas grows in size as the mansion falls, dropping to all 4s and shielding the group from as much rubble as he can.

"Hey... I've lost a home before, you'll always build a new one."

Then, the light clicks

"Actually... I got a pretty good idea on a place we can use."

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@clawinghowlett @1nvncbleIronMan @Vampre_Hunter @GeneralHeckman @JUNGLEG1RL "GET EM, BOYS!"

he leaps into the fray, grabbing the leader and throwing him into the wall

"YEAH!"

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@JUNGLEG1RL @Vampre_Hunter @clawinghowlett @1nvncbleIronMan @GeneralHeckman - fall over and land on both Logan and blade.

Gravitron follows this up by holding him down, keeping all 3 pinned to the ground

Leader is next to move, shooting a gun out at Tony.

The gun takes down all his tech, causing the now not so iron man to fall to the ground

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@Vampre_Hunter @clawinghowlett @1nvncbleIronMan @GeneralHeckman @JUNGLEG1RL "I'M ON IT, PAL!"

He runs over, grabbing kraven and slamming her into the ground

"LET'S GET EM, AVENGERS!"

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@clawinghowlett @1nvncbleIronMan @Vampre_Hunter @GeneralHeckman - burst of sound

"AARGH!"

He goes flying through the wall, and standing in his place is the villainous Ulysses Klaw.

[ＡＴＬＡＳ @bigguythunder]

@clawinghowlett @1nvncbleIronMan @Vampre_Hunter @GeneralHeckman Atlas stands up next, grumbling And growing in size. His brass knuckles gleam in the light... Almost distracting from the subtle sound behind them... Almost like something was whirring to life?

Then it happens, Atlas is blasted forward towards the group with a gigantic -
