Eli leaped down from the second floor.
The small shield struck Rhino's helmet first.
Fake Rhino tilted to one side.
Eli landed, grabbed Old Joe, and dragged him behind a machine.
"Get down!"
The roof shattered.
Four hydraulic mechanical arms reached through the hole, and the person carrying them landed on the platform.
Fake Octopus raised a hand.
A mechanical arm swept across the control console.
The steel plate caved in.
The printing press stopped for two seconds, then started turning again on its own.
The machine worked very hard to keep going.
It looked determined to earn every penny of tonight's overtime pay.
Eli hurled his shield.
Fake Octopus blocked it with a mechanical claw.
The shield bounced away beside a paper roll.
The sound of spraying flames came from outside the side door.
It was too far away to see clearly.
Patriot thought it was probably the Human Torch from the Fantastic Four.
"Everyone, get down!"
Fake Human Torch sprayed a pillar of fire at the ceiling.
The utility lines burned through.
All the lights went out.
The emergency lights had barely come on when Fake Black Spider charged over to the stairs.
A steel cable wrapped around one of the defenders' necks.
Just as the defender started raising a hand, the wire abruptly tightened.
Blood flowed down his collar.
Eli lunged over.
Fake Black Spider released the cable and charged straight into the shield.
The two fell into a pile of paper.
Patriot cracked a white eyepiece with a punch.
The person beneath the mask did not panic.
Those eyes swept past Eli's shoulder.
As though checking whether the camera had captured everything.
Yeah, it probably had.
Fake Black Spider drove up a knee and knocked Patriot away.
"Take them alive!"
Fake Octopus's mechanical arms came down
