It is Fox's own luck that the Iron Fist looks in her general direction at just that moment...and laughs, a sound like molten copper boiling in a crucible.<br/><br/>"Minions of the Dark Emperor!  The Ministry of Thunder has arrived to stop us!  Are you not quaking in your boots?"<br/><br/>There is a general smattering of laughter from the goons, who certainly seem to get the joke.  They start setting their tasks down, or aside, and draw weapons, leisurely approaching our heroes.<br/><br/>"Did the Duke have none but this little girl to send against me?  Run home to play with your dolls, Fox!  This is man's work!"  He points to Draken.  "I remember this one.  Kill him slowly."<br/><br/>Beside him, the Cloak assumes a waiting posture as if trying to decide on a course of action after observing you three.  But with the way the air above and behind Cloak darkens, there's almost something else going on here.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Stat Block</div><div class="spoiler_body"><span class="bbc_u">Goons</span> (Swarm)<br/>Melee Weapons 3<br/>Defense 4<br/>Wounds 4<br/>Force Attack (4CD for +5CD)<br/>Vulnerable to Electricity<br/>AP 10/10<br/>SD 0<br/>CD 0/6<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">Iron Fist Deng</span> (Individual)<br/>Brawl 5<br/>Strength 4<br/>Intimidate 3<br/>Wounds 4<br/>Defense <del>6</del> 4<br/>Vulnerable to Frost<br/>Powers: Force Attack, Leap Attack, Blaze, Firestorm, Poison, Power Block<br/>AP 14/14<br/>SD 0<br/>CD 0/6<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">The Cloak</span> (Individual)<br/>Feint 4<br/>Dirty Tricks 3<br/>Stealth 2<br/>Wounds: 3<br/>Defense: 3<br/>Powers: Summoning, Blink, Magic Vortex, Refresh, Bond:?<br/>AP 10/10<br/>SD 0<br/>CD 0/6<br/><br/>GOAL: Rescue the Sacrifices!  Difficulty 6</div></div>
