Project Next-Gen

First mission: part 2

Approximately an hour later at promptly 9 pm, Sam found himself walking into the auction house, wearing his best tux and a different face. As he walked in he scanned the room, searching for anything unusual, however, he didn't notice the pair of eyes following him around.

As the mystery pair of eyes trailed Sam she noticed a familiar man walking towards him.

"Just great," She said to herself

Whilst still scanning the room, Sam lifted his hand towards his right ear and used his index finger to lightly tap the device in his ear.

"Nothing unusual yet, except this nano mask, it feels like I'm wearing a wet towel," Sam announced quietly.

"Sorry, it's the best my fabricator could do in 20 minutes," Shuri responded in his ear. "Just wait for my signal," Sam added

Just as he lowered his arm, he saw a very wealthy-looking man approach him.

"Good evening, I don't think I've seen you around here before," The man queried.

"Yes, I guess you could say I'm a new potential buyer," Sam said slightly adjusting his tie

"I'm happy to hear that, I'm Derek Bishop, I'm the head seller," He said extending his hand for a shake

"It's nice to meet you, Derek, I'm Simon Watson," Sam said, shaking his hand.

"Dad!" They both heard someone yell from behind them. They looked back and saw a brunette girl motioning to Derek

"Excuse me, I've got to handle this, but enjoy the gala, the Main event should be starting soon," Derek said before making his way to the brunette girl.

"Simon Watson," Wanda said, mocking Sam's cover name.

"It's the best I could come up with on the spot, anyways it's about to start, get moving," Sam said to the team.

"On it," Wanda replied

"You guys ready to roll out?" Peter asked, and Wanda, Shuri and Danny gave him a nod. In the time that had passed, the team had re-dressed in their casual clothes, as it would be quite strange if they walked out of the hotel as superheroes, and instead kept their suits in the bags they were bringing them.

"Shuri you're staying here right?" Wanda asked

"On second thought, I'm coming with you, I've got some gadgets I need to test," She said putting two thin silver bracelets and a matching thin silver necklace in her bag

"Alright then, let's do this," Danny said, and the four walked out of the hotel and onto the street as inconspicuously as possible. They manoeuvred themselves into the alleyway between the auction house and the warehouse, staying wary of any wandering pairs of eyes, except for one.

"Dad, I think I left my phone in the car," The mystery person said to Derek after they noticed the four heroes

"Are you sure?" Derek asked

"Yeah I'm pretty sure," she replied

"Alright, here," He said handing her the key fob

"Thanks," she said before quickly walking out of the auction house and towards her dad's car in the parking lot. She opened a secret compartment in the trunk and grabbed a quiver and bow from inside, and sprinted in the direction that the others were walking in.

Surrounded by half a dozen unconscious bodies, the four heroes, now in their suits tried to look through one of the many windows on the exterior wall of the warehouse.
Shuri was wearing a midnight blue and black armour with the same detailing as her previous suit. Her helmet was shaped like a panther's head with an open mouth, with her visor between its jaws.
