            You do as Coulson asked, reporting back to him as soon as you reached the extraction point - except he’s not the one who answers your radio call; it’s some gruff-voiced agent you don’t recognize, name of Langkowski. While you’re bringing him up to speed, the other half of the team arrives from the cell blocks. Thor is bleeding; Sitwell is supporting Agent Woo, who’s limping badly. All of them are in pretty rough shape, but at least they are all present and alive.

“So,” you conclude your brief situation report, “we have to go back there and get them.”

            Langkowski is already coordinating an air extraction for Thor and Woo; he acknowledges your request and tells you Coulson anticipated it anyway. “There are replacements inbound on the helicopter I’m sending,” he informs you.

            Good, you think. Without Thor to help the rest of you out, you could probably use the extra assistance.
