Well. At least he was right about what's going on down there.

Logan has a healing factor so he doesn't need any immediate help (and he can't see the other guy in there yet - sorry buddy), so instead Bruce decides to forestall the progress of reinforcements further. In a move that would break the legs of anyone else, he drops from the cliff wall and lands in between the scrambling agents and the prisoner wagon. Some of them have already moved forward despite tech failures, but the ones that have remained while attempting to figure it out have limited time to be conscious left.

Seconds after disabling the third, a voice gets his attention from inside the wagon - "Hey! Let us out!!" - and he stops. Huh. Bruce jams the blade of his sword into the magicked lock, snapping it open. Three prisoners scurry out, and the last immediately transforms into a hulking bear creature that turns, lifts the wagon over her head, and smashes it.

...All right.

(Sometimes, Bruce misses being shocked by these things.)

That counts as enough chaos to keep the Militia permanently split for the duration, and he re-engages the stealth wards on his armor and makes his way back towards the bar - which is an all-out, completely insane standoff at this point, with the telekinetic on a rampage, Logan caught inside, unsure crossfire, and civilians caught everywhere, screaming or pinned down. Ahead of him, a huge humanoid man in uniform is shouting orders that are going ignored - until he pulls his hood off to reveal the stone-faced, blond-haired man from the Militia announcement weeks ago. Argo.

"Subdue them, and STOP DESTROYING THE BUILDING!" On hearing him, the telekinetic agent turns her head, distracted for just a moment.
