The girl quickly ran down the hallway, having to duck a couple times to not be seen, but eventually she made it to where she remembered Tony had been.
But when she got inside, she quickly had to duck and get to her knees, seeing that there were a couple guards in there. She quickly and quietly stayed on the floor, hiding behind some crate, when she heard the Dora watch begin beeping... causing her to bite her bottom lip, knowing that it meant that the suit was finished charging.
The man by the table picked the watch up, since they had taken it off Tony, and that's also when Nick realized that the golden sun necklace was also on the table. She hadn't even realized it was gone.
Tony looked over at him, "Careful there. It's a limited edition. Hey, uh, Ponytail Express." The bigger man, who had gotten up off the stairs, looked at Tony, who then asked. "What's the mileage count between Tennessee and Miami?"
"832 miles." The man answered, a gun pointed at Tony, who didn't seem that bothered as he nodded. "Very nice."
Nick looked around herself, picking up a broken metal pipe, before looking over the crate and watching the man then turned to the other guard, who was walking over to him and holding the watch that he couldn't get to shut up. "I'm good like that. Can you uh, stop that?"
"Break it, you bought it." Tony quickly says, but then the man looks up, before crushing the watch under his boot. "I think I bought it."
"Okay, that wasn't mine to give away. That belongs to my friend's sister. And that's why... I'm gonna kill you first." Tony looks at him, and the man scoffs. "What are you gonna do to me?"
"You'll see."
"You're zip tied to a bed."
"This." Tony yanks his arms, putting them so that they were facing forward, and so were his palms. Nick watched with a raised eyebrow, before shaking her head a bit, knowing that it was gonna take a moment for the Mark 42 to get to them. He moves his arms again, "That."
The ponytail guard mocks flinching, but Tony just adds. "Trust me, you're gonna be in a puddle of blood on the ground in five, four, three... Come on! Two.." He moves his hands again, but nothing happens.
Nick shook her head, moving but staying low, and using the guards being distracted as her advantage to go down the stairs, only to quickly hide behind a desk - the same one Maya had been at - as one of the guards looks over at Ponytail. "How did we get this shift?"
Nick peeked out from behind the desk, getting Tony's attention, and even though he was relieved she was fine... and not glowing, he shook his head at her to not move. Then he looked back at the guards, keeping their attentions on him. "Alright, I'm gonna give you a chance to escape. Put down your weapons. Tie yourselves to those chairs, I'll let you live."
