Hope flew ahead, doing a little bit of recon to see if the path was clear. "Looks good - oh wait," she paused in her assessment when Random Joe came out of the bathroom, carrying a stack of files. Likely he was reading these while on the crapper and she doubted he washed his hands, but anyway. Zipping toward him, he suddenly rocked to the side, an invisible force delivering a powerful punch that sent him reeling.

He hit the wall, arms flailing, papers flying up into the air and fluttering back to the ground like snowflakes. She punched him again, from the opposite side - he was pretty dazed by this point, you could practically see the cartoon birds circling. And back into the bathroom he stumbled, leaving his mess on the floor. "Now it's clear."

Vision appeared moments later, glancing down at the array of papers and the swinging door of the bathroom - displaying a very unconscious guard. The door eventually stopped swinging and just sort of thudded against the man’s head. She worked quickly, he could definitely appreciate that.

“These are likely to be valuable,” he said as he went to gather up the scattered files, “and there may be more through there.” The file room appeared to also be connected to the server room - which was quite convenient for what they were after.

“I’ll gather what information is available through their secure computers, if you would be so kind as to watch my back?” he asked, heading over to one of the computers. Hopefully they wouldn’t be disturbed with more guards during this part of the process, but there were no guarantees. Vision’s eyes slid shut as he shifted his mental focus to sift through various guarded systems using his technopathic ability; dodging firewalls and passwords until he reached what he was looking for - information regarding the manufacturing of fake Wakandan weapons.

"No problem," Hope agreed easily - they needed whatever was stored in those servers just as much as they needed the physical equipment, which she planned to shrink and transport back while it was veeeerrrry tiny, so those on her side of the world could study its mechanics.

She kept herself wasp-sized but also kept an eye and an ear out for footsteps, flying back and forth to each room to assess whether or not she heard footsteps. After a few minutes, she picked up on the hushed murmur of two voices - a woman and a man, both speaking quietly.

And they appeared to be coming this way.

"Don't these people have lives?" she groaned, because what the hell, it was way past the typical workday. Then again, she couldn't really talk. She'd never worked normal hours either, when she was Chairman of the Board at Pym Tech. "Alright, how's the downloading going? We got two headed in." She was eager to dispose of them, since she needed to be human-sized to figure out which equipment she needed to shrink.

Zap, she suddenly became big again, mask on her helmet sliding down - hurry up, stragglers.

There was quite a wealth of information regarding both the weapons and those responsible for their distribution, so Vision focused his energy and abilities on collecting that data, and anything else remotely related. When he was done, he’d need to clear his tracks, so to speak; to ensure no one after him would know how their files had been tampered with.

While he sorted through that, he wasn’t aware of anything else going on around or behind his physical body - it took the majority of his focus just maneuvering through their various security measures. It left him vulnerable, though he wasn’t worried - Hope had his back.

When she called out to him, he had to pause a moment to respond - “Almost complete, I just need a few more minutes.”

Slam, pow, crash - there should have been cartoon bubbles popping up like on those old Batman episodes, accurately describing what was happening. Hope used a combination of shrinking and growing, peppered with martial arts (she was particularly fond of the surprise choke move, being reeeeeally tiny and then growing so quick you ended up with your thighs around someone's neck), to take down the two approaching 'scientists.' There was a bit of fumbling (and flailing) but mostly from them - her shrinky dink fighting techniques soon had them on the ground, wherein she promptly dragged them into what looked like a supply closet.

They would be dazed for awhile and wake up with a headache. Or at least, it would provide enough time for her and Vision to get the hell out of here.

Womanly-sized once more, she joined her android companion. "We good? I'm going to check out the equipment. And if you could cover me this time, it'd be much appreciated." Teamwork!

“Of course,” he responded, taking a few moments to re-orient himself, then he was out the door and following Hope down the hall. The information he’d gathered would undoubtedly be of use once they got back; though there was still more they could retrieve from this specific location.

So far so good - no civilians harmed and only moderate damage done to the guards.

And speaking of which - there were another two up ahead as they rounded the corner. “Go ahead, I’ll take care of them,” Vision offered, already heading down the hallway to prevent either of them from interfering. These ones weren’t too different from the rest - he dodged and shifted his density, the fights ending fairly quickly once both guards realized their punches were landing against a vibranium body; bones crunched and down they went.

A lotta damn people in this building, but that was to be expected. Hope felt kind of bad, but then she kind of didn't - because what the fuck, fake Wakandan weapons? Of all things to use science skills for, that was what these idiots chose? Oh, well.

She hurried into what she assumed was their lab - and, removing a red shrinking disc from her supply belt (she had both red and blue in there, you never knew what you would have to shrink or conversely enlarge), she tossed it at the table of samples - this would come in handy, looking at the various prototypes to see what they were comprised of. That shrunk, along with other mechanical engineering equipment - and a file cabinet of actual, paper files since they appeared to have those in addition to the electronic files.

Everything was put into a box, which Hope tucked away. "Got it," she called, pleased with their progress. Now if they could just manage to get out of here without any mishaps.

Once the guards were taken care of, Vision re-joined Hope. With the physical evidence she’d conveniently shrank down to traveling size, in addition to the information he downloaded; it had been quite successful so far - quick and efficient, which was how he preferred things to be when it came to missions.

He led them down a different hallway as they prepared to make their escape. “It will be best for us to leave this way,” he said, having studied the layout of the building beforehand. They hadn’t left behind too many traces of their presence here (well, other than the missing supplies and equipment), but there was no telling how many guards would eventually head their way when they realized their fellow employees weren’t answering their comm devices.

Just as they rounded the corner with the exit in sight; an alarm began to sound as the lights shifted above. So much for stealth. “It seems one of the guards has woken up,” he said while rushing toward the door. They could stay and fight, but at this rate with the thundering footfalls of numerous guards coming down the stairwell, it might result in accidental causalities - which they had been advised against. So with that in mind, he phased through the doorway and shifted back into his human appearance, quickly ducking into an alleyway close by.

Hope followed Vision, staying regular-sized for now - but then when the alarms blasted and the lights flashed, she groaned. "Definitely time exit, stage right," she said hastily and immediately shrunk herself - this way, she was able to use her wings and zip on ahead, avoiding the approaching stairwell guards.

Vision phased through the doorway and she catapulted down to whoosh outside using the crack between the door and the ground again - her wings took her with him to the same alleyway and she remained hovering in the air, listening, before she landed on his shoulder like before. "Now we just need kind of an inconspicuous getaway?" she observed, right when a car screeched to a stop at the end of the alleyway. One of the vehicles driven remotely from home base.

Perfect.

"This way," she told the now-human Vision, flying ahead to get into the car. When she was in the backseat, she grew again in order to buckle up. Go, go, go, go.

The car sped quickly away down the street, leaving the building and it’s guards far behind. With a glance backward, he saw a number of those guards spill out into the alleyway they had just occupied - glancing left and right in frustration, a few of them heading in both directions on foot.

“Excellent timing,” he said, very appreciative of the fact that the car had arrived right when they needed it. Now all that was left was the journey back home, and probably a fair amount of debriefing regarding the stolen parts and information they had gathered.

Overall, he was pleased with how things had went down. It wasn’t without some fighting and a narrow escape, but he’d rarely been on any mission that didn’t involve at least a little bit of both. “It’s been a pleasure working with you, Hope,” he said with a smile as the car made it’s way toward the airport.
