AIM has a new top-secret facility, and has hired the HIVE Academy and Eclipse mercenaries to provide extra security. Something big is about to happen, and it's up to the covert-ops unit SHIELD Team Seven, led by Maria "Captain America" Vincennes, to get to the bottom of it. And so they feign an attack by the Avengers in order to cover up their infiltration.
But nothing can prepare them for the deadly surprise that lays within...
Coreline: Operation: Hard Entry
is a one-shot story that is part of the Coreline Shared Universe.
Currently under construction. Please add tropes as you see them!
This story has the following Tropes:
- Cool Versus Awesome: On one battle sequence we have Maria Vincennes (a Neon Genesis Evangelion Fiction with the powers of Captain America) and Fujiko Mine shooting it out with Eclipse, AIM and beating the hell out of Mammoth, while at the same time we have Maya Ibuki (a Neon Genesis Evangelion Fiction with powers and abilities from the Street Fighter franchise) fighting against Alpha-152... and winning.
- False Flag Operation: In order to prevent AIM from realizing that this is a SHIELD assault, Maria procures a Quinjet for her team to use, disguises herself as Mari "Captain America" Makinami, and even brings along an Iron Man armor with an AI program to fake being controlled by Tony Stark.
- Growing Muscles Sequence: Maria actually employs a ki technique to invoke this Trope, becoming strong enough to overpower Mammoth.
- Latex Perfection: In order to help make it look like the SHIELD infiltration look like it's actually an attack by the Avengers, Maria uses an Impossible Missions Force mask in order to disguise herself as Mari "Captain America" Makinami. Fujiko also employs this in order to infiltrate the facility.
- Sequel Hook: Ibuki was, unfortunately, unable to download the decryption cypher to read it, but still got a pretty huge file labeled "CHIMERA"-the same operation name mentioned on the files they stole from Cobra Commander. So what is the connection? And how the heck is DOATEC involved?.
- Shout-Out:
- Maria's Latex Perfection mask is specifically mentioned to be the same type employed by the Impossible Missions Force (which is active In-Universe).
