When the confrontation begins, Steve only shouts orders if someone in their squad starts falling behind or needs backup. For the most part, everyone seems capable of handling themselves. He stays closer to the back, and to their portable generators, to help the two Troubleshooters assigned to protecting them.
A certain voice yelling “Sorry” as she billy-clubs people in the head however, does manage to catch his attention. That’s when he sees Buffy get hit and her body hits the ground. “Get up,” he whispers under his breath as he flips an incoming attacker over his shoulder, before turning to look back in her direction.
There she was again. And again. And again. Steve can’t help but shake his head and smile. Perhaps he’s misjudged her.
Getting up to the 17th floor is a mixture of complicated and agonizing, however. It doesn’t help that they’re carrying two large machines with them, and given Steve’s lack of super-serum strength, he certainly can’t do it alone. Eventually however, they do get there.
“Summers and Smith,” he starts, motioning for Buffy and one other Troubleshooter to go first. “When we pull open the door, I want you to cover as much ground as possible on this floor. Find out exactly where the riot is happening. Count the number of civilians involved. Return immediately. Do not engage. Understood?”
There were over a dozen different departments that belong to Internal Security on this floor. The last Steve heard, Forensics was hearing the most in their hallways, but that intel was old.
