Re: Later on...
How could Natalia think that Bruce could just leave her high and dry? What sort of person would he be? Though he was not a SHIELD agent, he managed to follow the trail where they'd taken Natalia, though he'd come upon the scene too late to save her from being captured. The sound of German and Russian being shouted lead him directly to where she was bound, though the underground maze of the hotel's boiler room.
Hiding behind a huge water heater, Bruce peeked around the corner to get a quick estimate of the situation, then pulled his head back, body pressed against the heater. Sweat beaded upon his forehead and his heart raced, but he was able to stay in control... but just barely. He scrubbed his face with his hand and took a deep breath: the Hulk would be devastating if he couldn't keep that control.
