Songbird motioned for Blizzard to remove Batroc II and take her to their storage cupboard, sheesh the embarrassment. As she was taken away the collective group could hear the occasional rant of "Bastir" and "Zut alors, you swine take your hands off me pig."
Zemo noticed several members of the group smirking 'Poor Blizzard' he thought to himself 'no-one deserves that kind of abuse from a woman, if if her dad did kick you in the head.'
Fixer wasn't happy that Johnny wanted to join him wrecking the Baxter building and so gave up on the idea "bleeding match head" he mumbled under his breath.
Zemo walked over to Hawkeye and sat in the first chair he could find, the others all milled around in the background just in case. "So you want to talk? lets talk, what can we possibly do for you two?"
In the seconds it took for Hawkeye and Torch to respond French voices could be heard screaming profanities at Blizzard.

"Yeah. I let your little cronie go this time cause I didn't want Hawkeye to wet himself at the lengths of my power, but rest assured, next time I'll tell him to bring spares."
Johnny chuckled at this. It was one of th first real laughs he had all day.

"lets get this straight Flame head. the day I wet myself at your powers is the day I don't feel comfortable about my sexuality and I wear a purple costume." Clint shot back. "Zemo relax, your all tense. Trust me we didn't come to pick a fight...well actually I take that back, we almost always come to pick a fight." Clint smirked at the anger Zemo was trying to contain. "I want to know why you've gone pro reg and also talk about what I've found on your personal computer. Songbird would you be a doll and get me and scooter something to drink?" Clint was pushing his luck with the Thunderbolts but, it was so damn fun but, these were his friends so he would tone it down a bit. Hawkeye would never forget the good times he had leading the team.

"Ill take some whiskey. I got my ID if you need it."
Johnny did a double-take to Clint.
"Computer? What're you not telling me?"

Songbird glared at Hawkeye "Yeah fine sure whatever, what am i the maid now?" she sauntered off to get some drinks.
Zemo looked over to Clint and took his mask off, "Truth be told Clint we had no choice in the matter Stark came to us asking for help and to be honest we needed the good PR." there was no way Zemo was going to give him his personal reason for agreeing to the idea.
"i mean a lot has changed since you've been..... well, dead. we've lost some members and gained some new ones, and as for my personal computer, which I'm impressed you got into, what exactly did you find." Zemo was glad he had taken most of the really dangerous material off the blasted thing.
Songbird returned with the drinks "There you go sire." she said in her most sarcastic tone. She wandered away in disgust she couldn't believe Zemo let them talk to her like that.
Atlas walked over to where the trio were sat, "OK, i think I'd be interested in knowing what Clint found on the computer."

"Songbird I'm sorry I was only kidding." Clint shouted after her. "Don't give me that PR bullshit Zemo. You and I both now, no matter what the thunderbolts do the skeletons in the closet will never go away, no matter how much time any of us serve in prison. You know this isn't a good move and you did it anyway. Whats in it for you personally Baron? Being Starks little Superhero lapdog. I mean you guys should know pretty damn well about being hunted and being chased. Why do you want that for people who try to do good like us?" Clint's temper had risen quickly but, he quickly calmed back down to his cool self before continuing.
"The compute had almost all the info on every superhero you could want other than there personal info and identies of course. Also its not just about bringing in the Heros anymore its about killing them. Killing people who do more for this country and the world than any fatass politician ever has. Some weren't even wanted alive just dead. Could you do it Zemo, could you put a bullet in my head?" Clint was even more passionet now than when he was with the x-men these were his friends and former teamates. "O, and before I forget what the 42?"

"Look Clint i didnt know anything about killing heroes I've not looked at any of the profiles figure we all know each other well enough. strange thing is that theres no command to kill any of the villains." Zemo was concerned did someone else have a plan for all these villains, he had intended to select some of them to join the team.
"As for your comments about being hunted down, who would you rather hunt you down Clint a SHIELD team or us, i know i asked you this earlier today but seriously think about it." Zemo was trying his best to make Clint see things his way.
"If SHIELD were to find you two they wouldn't think twice about shooting hell an entire regiment attempted to take down Cap....twice from what I've heard."
Songbird stood watching the trio 'Why couldn't they just agree that what we are doing isn't bad we may save lives doing this' her thoughts wandered to the Power family 'were they alright?' she wondered.
"As for 42 I'm really sorry i haven't got all the specifics but as near as i can tell its some sort of prison for those who......um......" Zemo looked past Hawkeye "For those who oppose the act, I'm sorry Clint."

"I'd rather face SHIELD anyday. Don't you see, you know how much harder it would be for me to hurt one of you? I can't stand the thought of it. I have no problem taking down one of the emotionless jerks." There was pain in Clint's eye. There was a feeling of dread coming over him. He looked toward Atlas. "what do you feel, by the look on your face you seem like you've been left out of the loop....from the what it seems you've all been left out of the loop." Hawkeye wondered why Zemo was keeping things from the team...but that was for another time. "A prison.....a prison for superheros. Intresting, thats very intresting. How long do you think it'll be before your sent after me and the kid over there or cap?"

"To be honest with you Clint i don't think Stark trusts us enough to send us after the big guns, he's got us running around registering the minor leaguers. When it comes to you the boy and Cap i think he'll come after you himself, of course if certain footage of you were to vanish from Starks files then they need never know your back." Zemo liked Hawkeye despite appearances, we would never hunt him down like a petty criminal.
Atlas was watching Zemo talk "Look in know we have a job to do, and Clint none of us like it but Zemo's right were just small fish, Starks got some major fire power to back him up, now i don't know what Zemo's been hiding from us but rest assured it ends now." Atlas stared into Zemo's eyes he meant every word he said.
"We defiantly aren't the ones to worry about Clint your buddy over there is the problem, do you honestly think he can take on Reed and the Thing? because I've got my doubts i really have." Zemo was worried why hadn't they told him more about this 42 file that he couldn't even access; and what would happen if you locked up all the heroes.

42? Reed had a file marked that and Johnny once caught a glimpse of it. Was Reed behind the imprisonment of the rebels? If he was, this would just be tougher then he thought. He didn't let it show as Zemo was already questioning him.
"Zemo, I'll do whatever I need to in order to stay outta jail. No matter who's putting me there."
He turned to Clint.
"Clint, we need to talk. It's about '42'."

"Its ok, I trust the thunderbolts with my life, no matter what side of the act they are on. It seems Stark is playing them. So you can spill it here unless it is really really important." Clint was disturbed at how Tony Stark was becoming such a puppetmaster. "I used to think Stark was kinda a prick but, a good teamate but, now It seems otherwise. You guys are ok with Stark sending you after people that don't really matter?"

"Umm, Clint. I kinda know a little something about '42'. It might catch your attention. W may need to stop by the Baxter Building on the way back."
Johnny was uncomfortable about ratting out Reed, but it had to be done. For the sake of the resistance, it had to be done.

Clint stood up and looked around the room. "Zemo I want to thank you for your help. You are a pretty damn good leader and you are much better at it than I thought when I handed over the T-bolts to you." He then turned to Atlas. "You guys keep your eyes and ears open. Don't let Tony manipulate you to much. I guess its time me and Flamey head on out." With that and a look at the the Thunderbolts Clint started for the front doors.

"Clint, Reed is heading up the 42. He has files about it at home. I don't know where the location is, but I bet we can find out. I don't want Sue to know about this, though. You got me?"
He stopped in the doorway and turned to Clint.
