Evelyn landed flat on her face after the room exploded. She mumbled incoherent words as she lifted her head, scrunching her eyes.

"Eve? Are you alright?" Steve called from above. Evelyn rolled onto her back to look up at him.

"Never been better," she replied. "Can't say the same for the rest of us."

"I'm coming—"

"Go help Tony. I'll be fine," she told him. He nodded hesitantly and then left. "We'll be alright. Yeah?" Evelyn looked over at Bruce, who was breathing heavily, having landed hard. He was gripping the grated floor to maintain control, but his eyes were green, his face intense. "Shit." Evelyn looked at Natasha as she slowly sat up but had a metal pole over her ankle and at Eliza, who had landed flat on her face. Evelyn quickly sat up and shoved the piece of metal off Natasha's ankle.

"Mother fucker!" Eliza groaned, slowly sitting up to rub her nose. She looked down at her hand and the blood on it. "I think my nose is broken!"

Evelyn looked over in her direction and chuckled lightly at the angle it was on. "Yeah, it's broken." Eliza whined as she touched around her nose and tried to sniffle up the blood. "Nat, Eliza, get up and get out of here."

Natasha looked up at Evelyn and then at Bruce, who was trying to control the Hulk but was slowly beginning to change. "Bruce?" she asked.

Eliza looked over at Bruce and raised her eyebrows. "Shit!"

Evelyn pulled Natasha and Eliza up. "You two. Go!" She whispered. "I'll hold him off."

Natasha looked at Evelyn, "I'm not leaving you here."

"Cool, because I am," Eliza said before hurrying out of the room.

"I've been up against the Hulk before. I'll be fine." Evelyn looked back at him and saw his face had turned green in the dim light as he struggled to suppress the rage, but Bruce's face was growing, changing slowly. Evelyn pulled her suit back over her shoulders to help protect her skin from what may lie ahead.

Natasha looked into Evelyn's eyes, and with one final nod, she got up and began to follow after Eliza. Two approaching S.H.I.E.L.D. agents arrived to check on the group. Evelyn furiously waved them away. "Get the hell away, or you're gonna get yourselves killed!"

"We're coming with ya," Eliza told them, and the four hurried out of there immediately.

Evelyn turned back to Bruce. "Come on, Bruce, remember what I told you. Conceal, don't feel. Conceal it, don't feel it."

Another explosion rocked the carrier and Bruce turned to look at her, transforming just as the lights went out. Banner suddenly started transforming into the Hulk, getting bigger and bigger. His purple shirt and pants began to rip. Evelyn quickly hurried towards the stairs, stopped at the bottom, and turned to face him.
