The wind that Storm whips up becomes a powerful force in the relatively-confined space, with all the debris it can pick up and batter about. Soon the wreckage is buffeting anything and everything, including the panicking, running, screaming agents. However, the target is the Punisher, who still holds the captured energy in his armored hands, in balls too brilliant to look at directly. Much of the light is lost with the objects whipping about in the underground wind but an illuminated chaos is still chaos. The debris rises with the wind around the obsessed vigilante, battering him with smaller objects like pens and broken picture-frames, up to large office appliances, like an unplugged printer then an entire swivel chair, that strike him squarely in the helmet but do not move or phase him. Though he seemed to plod before, he is now propelled with astonishing speed, darting like lightning toward the weather-rider to inside an area where the wind is considerably less a force. Controlling the weather indoors cannot be a precise event, and the Punisher dodges the cross-currents to enter the eye of the storm, which also brings the fight closer to Storm herself! "No pain here, witch," the voice from the armor says. "If that's what you were trying to do."
