[Pepper would appreciate not dying, really. By the time that Natasha arrives Pepper has manages to wiggle one of the lit logs from the bonfire (causing several others to spill out into the street) and is waving it in front of the assorted parts trying to back out of the area. Sadly for Pepper, she's not a fighter. Pepper is a planner, not a zombie fighter. A stray hand managed it's way behind enemy lines and is now trying to get close enough to crawl up her leg.

Pepper lets out a disgusted 'ew' as she tries to back away quickly, but the hand seems to be keeping pace with her, and every inch she backs the other parts creep closer toward her and try to close the gap. Throughout this rather unfortunate display of defending herself several grumbled out words can be heard from her. The words 'gross' and 'should have stayed home.' seem to be the predominant ones. She's seriously thinking about never watching horror movies ever again if she gets out of this alive.]

[ Natasha lets out a breath as she sees Pepper's at least not being menaced by an intact corpse - yet, anyway. Still, she doesn't slow down until she's reached her, kicking the hand and sending it flying toward the fire before grabbing Pepper's arm and tugging her out of the way of a few more unidentifiable parts inching toward her.

Another body thumps to the ground a few yards away, bouncing off a roof in the process. Natasha winces, keeping a wary eye on it though it should take a moment for it to sort out the broken limbs and pulverised flesh. ]
Is Stark out here too, or is it just you?

Just me.

[Pepper heard the body hit and her head whirled in it's direction. How many of these things were there? She wasn't sure that they could fend off many more of them.

Though if Tony knew about these things he'd probably be out here already. Though Pepper figured Natalie knew him well enough to know that already.

She kept thrusting the flaming torch at the pieces, backing in Natalie's direction.]


What's going on?

[She honestly wasn't sure she wanted to know.]

If I had to guess, I'd say the barrier isn't holding up anymore. At least this is all that's coming through so far... [ The undead she can fight. The massive expanse of ocean above them and on all sides... not so much.

The corpse that just fell... well, it doesn't quite get up. That would require more bones and muscles to be intact than currently are in this case. It does start moving toward them, and Natasha levels her gun at it without actually firing. ]


I think you should start moving toward your suite, Ms. Potts. I'll be right behind you.

[Pepper's attention is distracted to the creature now slinking it's way toward them.]

That was my exit.

[They're pretty much surrounded on all sides now.]

[ Natasha mutters something under her breath, her expression going blank and calm - almost unnervingly so - as she calculates the creature's approach, the angles of attack, the routes to either of their suites. Her tone's just as calm as her expression when she speaks, her eyes on the jiangshi rather than Pepper. ]

Don't move from here. If any more get close, do me a favor and scream.

[ And then she's running at the creature like a big cat breaking from cover, all deadly grace against the jiangshi's clumsy awkwardness. An intact creature would present a challenge, but in the state it's in, it's all too easy for her to target the weak points in joints and broken bones and take it apart, all but literally, with brutal efficiency. ]

[Pepper jumps at the sudden absence of Natasha. Recovering she pulls out another flaming torch and continues to thrust it at the advancing pieces of creature.]
