Henry thought. "Well the bands are rather easy to mass produce, I found the original schematics in the electronic archives from a country called Latveria. It sounded familiar so I looked into their files."
"The suits, unfortunately, will take some time. They are complicated and the material comes from an unknown source. Research and construction will be a slow process and only a limited number will be able to be made." He motioned towards the mini suit that he placed, standing on her desk. It was now walking around reorganizing Ivana's desk items, although it left her papers alone. It was looking for something.
Moving one of the items a fly buzzed off and it aimed a hand at it. "Target located, neutralizing target." It sent a small energy blast at the fly and it was instantly vaporized in mid-air.
"I haven't given this model rocket boots, thought I might loose it that way."

Arell was the first to feel it. "Goddamn ********' HEADACHE!!" he growled, the animalistic side of him going absolutely berserk. Dundee on the other hand, was fighting it.
"Dude, calm down. Nothing's gonna get solved like this!" he said, but Arell snapped.
"No! I'mma DO SOMETHING 'BOUT IT!" he growled, he looked up at the floating Threshold. Target acquired. he thought, leaping up from the rock, the transformation seemingly going on MID AIR from 250lbs of Cajun to bigger, his muscles bulging in size, a tail appearing, his eyes dilating to those of a lizard's, fangs appearing in the man's mouth . . . the only thing that seemed similar was the rage. A ferocious alligator was now flying towards Threshold at an alarming rate.

Kai, being very sensitive to her mind could drastically feel the pain of the overload. It was already enough as it was for her controlling a half transformation that she consistently uses known as wings. She fell to her knees grasping the sides of her head in pain as her wings vanished quickly.
"STOP."
Was the only word she could muster in her weak, and in pain state. She wasn't going to give up that easily but in her condition how could she not? She fought hard to not lose her consciousness although at this point that was not good enough to keep them out of trouble. They were now found and suffering an attack from an unknown, newcomer to this battle.
(( I'm just guessing here that she would be in pain, from having so many impulses in her mind at once, and the fact that she is also a very tough fighter.))

 Threshold easily saw the ragin Cajun leap up and transform into a werecrocodile. As Michael Callahan quickly absorbed what his senses and mind was picking up about Arell, arching his right eyebrow, So... he has an animal side... wonderful...As the hurdling Crocodile Man was speeding up toward Threshold, the mentalist put his hands almost together in front of his chest, flat as if pushing together both ends of an invisible book. It took Michael only a second to fully focus his energies into that space inbetween the palms of his hands. A bright orange firey ball of pure mental rage formed in the space between Threshold's hands, quickly reaching it's zenith. Threshold made a sharp intake of breath just before he fires at the Ragin Cajun missile, all hearing Michael's voice through their ears and in their minds, "You're luggage, Lizard Lips!!!!"A firey orange beam of energy hit's Arell flat in the chest, as the mentalist had waited until the Crocodile Man was almost within reach where he couldn't miss. The mental plasma beam blasts Arell back into the hard orange rock below cracking the stone underneath Arell.

The blast knocked that swamp rat gator off his a** and not only towards the rock, but THROUGH the rock . . . a superhuman hit like that would have killed most mortal men, hell, if Dundee didn't fall unconscious mere seconds before, he would have tried to fill the hole in the ground that Arell made. Then again, most mortal men weren't Arell. Reverting back to his human form, he crawled out of the hole, growling more foul language than most censors allow for an R movie. Pulling a gun, he took careful aim at Threshold. "Go . . . ta' hell." he wheezed in his Cajun patois as he squeezed the trigger. BLAM!!

Threshold chuckled evilly, as he placed his hand in the bullet's path padding his palm with a telekinetic shield. When the bullet arrives, Michael simple catches it. Then, with a wave of his free hand, the blond mentalist remotely used his telekinetic power to yank the pistol from Arell's grasp and into his own hand, "Heh... This is actually a nice gun. It's a nice choice in firearms, I have to admit...."

"Thanks. If I had half de stren'th t' do it, I'd kill ya with it." Arell growled and fell back into the hole, limp as a wet noodle. Even the biggest brute of the bunch had failed to hold off the IO troops.

Kai was still on her knees next to an unconscious Dundee which she caught and laid on the ground leaning over him trying to gain the strength to stand. She heard the blast Arell had taken and tried to stand, getting to her feet she glared at the psychic enemy.
"Are, you glad. You took down a hero and her friends for what? I.O. fun? You know what they will do to us if we are captured?"
She spoke quietly for someone trying to get her voice to reach a man who floated a bit away. Her heart sank realizing that there was no winning this fight. No matter how much "hope" or "Strategy" she could possibly have at this point there was no way. Soldiers, a helicopter, a desert, this man. Too much, even for a full team of Teen Titans taken by surprise. Kai looked back down, she was easily overheating. This was not her kind of environment, and she fought against the pain to stay conscious watching over Dun, unable to help Arell. Waiting for an answer from the I.O. super soldier.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Caity isn't okay. She's hurt her head on the floor."
Rainmaker felt the blood in Caitlin's light hair. She held the girl closer and pulled her hair around to see the issue that was causing this and notices the gash.
"Nothing stitches can't fix and some antibiotics. We need to get her to a nurse."
"Where do we find one in this sh*t hole?"
Roxy said stopping to look over to Sarah. Still having not physically involved herself in the fight. Later she would have to get this chick for pushing down Caity but for now it /was/ probably best to hold off. Although a fight would help her forget her craving for the cigarettes that were diminishing faster than ice cream on a hot summer day. She was actually quite angry and irritated without her cigarettes at this point.

(I just realized I was using the wrong name for Threshold. His name is Matthew, not Michael. Sorry guys. sweatdrop )
"Fun? You are the ones that are not where you should be, 'Justice Leaguer.' Even though I did enjoy myself, this isn't about having fun -- it's about he future..," Threshold stated just before delivering a final mental bolt to render Red Cardinal unconscious. Then, the I.O. operative switched his comm link back on, "Ivana, it's Matthew. Three subjects to be picked up, two of them are exhibiting full gen active abilities. The girl could be a handful; because, of her phasing power."
Ivana responded to the news, "Good job, Matthew. I think we have a solution for that. Just bring them in. Ivana out," then turning back to Henry, "Henry, I need you to get to work on those restraints... and I'd like to know more about the augmentation you mentioned."
............
Helga Kleinmann pushed her way in, shooting a glare at both Nat and Rachel then moving over to help tend to Caitlin Fairchild, "Lucky for you, I'm a registered nurse... And Miss Rainmaker ist correct, Miss Fairchild vill be fine. Vill you help be move her to zee Infirmary?"

Rose had nothing really more to do at this moment, the children were being handled by Helga again. What a waste, that she couldn't help with anything but get back to work. On her way back to work she received a call from her husband picking up her phone just before entering the building. She turned to the side out of the way.
"Yes Jack? We just had an attack on I.O. you have Amber? Both vehicles?"
"I have Amber, yes, and Bobby. Also, I have a guest. Kane Rocknell. Please visit the director Ivana and tell her that I have another scientist, he knows a bit about these heroes and has fought them. Get together his ID."
"Got it. See you all here then. Rose out."
She ended the call and proceeded to head to Ivana's office to tell her the news. Rose made it to Ivana's office assistant and told the person to let her into Ivana's office. For official business with Rose Summers.
Kai glared at him a moment, "What future?" she thought, the moment before being struck out. She fell over Dundee laying unconscious.

Nathalia watched in silence, muscles tingling from the slight exertion. She needed some air, being around these people was driving her mad, though she didn't know why exactly.

Henry looked at the bracer. "You mean the ability to boost powers? You take a toothpick and press it into this hole here." He took a toothpick out of his pocket and pressed into the hole and jiggled the toothpick around a bit till there was a click. "And now it boosts powers instead of shutting them off."
He looked up at Ivana. "But I'll get on making more."
He grabbed the robot and it stopped moving as Henry walked out muttering to himself. "I might need to wear this thing just to keep up with everything."
He made it now to his lab and locked himself in.

Threshold maintained his psionic suppression to keep Red Cardinal, Arell and Dundee unconscious, while the Black Talons secured the three for transport back to the base....
....
Helga and Sarah carefully helped Caitlin to the Infirmary. Once there, the German native immediately set to work on the back of the mousy redhead's scalp, "Danke for helping me vith Miss Fairchild. Actually, I am surprised you decided to help. It is commendable."

"What I would do for a good friend. And to keep away from the guards now that I don't have to be in detention."
Rainmaker said leaning back against a wall watching Helga take care of Caitlin after she helped her down onto a table. It wasn't out of the question to help others. She just didn't like helping the soldiers and talons here... and maybe the scientists. These people made her sick with what they were doing for the most part.
Roxy waited outside pulling out one of her last cigarettes. She lit it, holding her hand out to hide the lighting of the thing and then proceeded to take a puff. With a long sigh she leaned back.
"This is perfect. Last one."
She looked at it both angered that it was going to be gone in a few more puffs, but also happy, and enthralled that she was finally smoking it after holding it off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rose Summers waited at the desk tapping her foot on the ground.
"Well? Get me in with Ivana. NOW."
Her patience was wearing out. Knowing her husband would be here soon and she had little time to explain to Ivana the situation with Kane Rocknell. Not wanting to have the boy blasted to pieces would be nice considering that he did contain vital intelligence and worked with Kai and several other powered individuals as an assistant to herself and Jack Summers.

Ivana, as it was, just walked back to her office from the vault, "Doctor! I was just about to call you. Threshold is about to bring in three intruders at the outer marker -- two of which are super powered. Also, there were two other SPB's that invaded that we've captured."
............
In the Infirmary, Helga glanced at Sarah briefly before she continued to patch up Caitlin's head, "Hmmm... I'm still surprised. So, you und Miss Fairchild became friends. Zat ist good. Perhaps zis vill lead to vhen you vill no longer need zee cuffs."
