Posted by Mystique on Jun 7, 2007, 12:08pm
Mystique had been sitting in Charles' office, drinking tea with him. It was a pleasant day, and they were enjoying it together.
“I think we should-”
She stopped in mid-sentence. Having no mental powers of her own, she couldn't detect, or fend off any mental attack, and was taken completely by surprise. Her eyes widened in fear for a moment, before Nathaniel Essex took complete control, and her features took on a blank look. Now, now, just make this easy and come to me, came the whisper in her mind.
It was Essex. The man behind all of it, the one who wanted the baby for his own sick and twisted games. No, she wouldn't do it. She wouldn't let him take her. Her mind screamed for him to release her from his grasp as her body moved to the door on it's own accord. She had no control. She willed her mouth to open, to scream, or say something. But she couldn't do it. She was trying to move against him, to put her hand in the door frame and stop herself, but it was no use. Movements seemingly robotic, she began to walk out of the door.
Posted by The Man on Jun 7, 2007, 12:32pm
::Xavier's brow creased in concern, as Raven stood up in the middle of their conversation. Not her usual, fluid movements. Stiff, robotic, as though under imperfect control. There was only one man who could do this, who would do this. And he had come far earlier than expected.
Putting down his tea cup, he wheeled out of his office on her heels. Calling out to her, to try to stop her, where she could remain safe.:: "Raven."
Posted by Mystique on Jun 7, 2007, 12:39pm
She heard him call to her, and her mind shrieked as she futilely tried to stop in her tracks.
She stalked outside, moving towards a figure at the edge of the grounds, standing in the grass.
There he was. He was tall and muscular, with a tight-fitting black suit that made his already deathly pale skin seem almost white. There was a red diamond in the center of his forehead. It seemed to glow next to his burning red eyes. She began to sweat with fear as he used telekinesis to levitate her closer, until her stomach was right next to his face.
“How lovely,” he purred, stroking her stomach as if he would a kitten. Her mouth wouldn't move, so she used her mind instead. Let me go, she raged, unfiltered fury reinforcing her thoughts.
“Oh no, my dear, I have plans for you yet,” he said, chuckling.
Her mind tried to reach Charles, tried to shout telepathically for his help, but she felt as if she hit a glass wall. Looking at him, he shook his head slightly, smiling. “We can't have you doing that, now can we?” He asked, his tone scolding. If she could, she'd spit in his disgusting face.
Posted by The Man on Jun 7, 2007, 1:02pm
::Xavier followed her out onto the grounds, where he saw for the first time a man who had only been described to him before. His pallor and eyes made him appear other-worldly. The black costume he wore transforming him into something sadistic...sinister.
Concern for Raven and the child increased ten-fold as Essex lay a hand on her stomach, where his child grew. His tone cold, he spoke the words she was unable to.:: "Let her go."
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 7, 2007, 3:11pm
Turning, he saw the world's most powerful telepath, wheeling towards him. A sadistic smile crept onto his face as the other man demanded for him to release the shapeshifter.
“Ah, Charles Xavier, how nice of you to join us,” he smirked.
For a milisecond, a look of irritation crossed his features, before the same unsettling grin formed on his face again. He turned to Mystique, and backhanded her before anyone could bat an eye. “You know better than to beg, so don't waste my time.”
He turned back to Xavier, still grinning. “I'm afraid you're one too many for our little party.”
Posted by The Man on Jun 7, 2007, 3:27pm
::Xavier's hands gripped the arms of his wheelchair. He needed to remain calm, if he was to face and defeat a foe of this magnitude. This wasn't Erik; he didn't know Essex's mannerisms, his mind, his essential nature.
His retort died on his lips, when Essex struck Raven. How *dare* he lay a hand upon her. She was defenseless, carrying his child. He'd vowed that no harm would come to her, and he would keep that vow.:: "If three's a crowd, you'll need to leave. Alone."
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 7, 2007, 3:40pm
He chuckled, flashing spotless white teeth.
"I'll be leaving in a moment, but I'm afraid she'll be coming with me." While speaking, he dug through her mind, her memories. Her anger was considerably annoying, shouting at him mentally, but he ignored her, searching for tidbits of valuable information. He so loved to toy with people. It gave him such fun.
"I do apologize, Charles," he said a moment later, adopting a serious tone. "I'm sorry I have to part you from your fiance so early." The same sinister smile crept back onto his face as he turned, rubbing her stomach tenderly. The results of such a parting would be truly wonderful. For him, anyway.
Posted by The Man on Jun 8, 2007, 1:16pm
"She'll do no such thing," ::Xavier replied, adopting an equally stern and serious tone. The other man was powerful, there was no doubt, but he must truly be insane to believe that Xavier would simply let him go with Raven and the child, without so much as a fight.::
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 2:48pm
He sighed dramatically, mock sadness on his features. When he looked up, however, he levitated Mystique closer to him, so that her face was almost next to his. "See, we could either do this the easy way, or do this the hard way," he said, wrapping his fingers around her neck, before drawing his index finger across, to illustrate his point of the "hard way".
"Either way, I will get what I want, and what I want is that wonderful little bundle of DNA," he purred, wrapping his arm around Mystique to rest on her stomach, patting it gently.
Posted by The Man on Jun 8, 2007, 3:13pm
"Simply remember that the same applies to you," ::Xavier said, protective anger in his voice and eyes. He had no intentions of capitulating to this man. His child was at risk, Raven was at risk, his students, his family, everyone he cared about. Nathaniel Essex wouldn't survive this day; Xavier would make sure of that.
Reaching out with his mind, he began contacting the others urgently, snap in his mental voice.::
*Scott, Ororo, Jean, Logan, we're under attack. Nathaniel Essex is on the grounds, he has Raven, and is prepared for a battle. Come to the grounds, quickly. Scott, gather the training team and Bobby; you'll be acting as their field leader as well.*
*Shade, gather the chidren and put them in the tunnels. Watch over them and keep them safe.*
*Hank, we're under attack. Gather the healers and prepare the medical laboratories for injuris.*
*Pietro, Wanda, I need you on the grounds, now!*
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 3:18pm
Scott had been in his room, reading a book when the Professor's call interuppted him.
"On my way." He thought back. He leapt up, grabbed his visor and headed for the Dorms.
Once there, he headed straight for Gabby's room.
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 3:28pm
"Yes, I shall," he said dismissively, his attention focused in the distance. "Ah, here comes one of my lovelies." In the distance, a whirlwind raged, coming closer by the second.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 3:36pm
@@@@riptide@@@@
Riptide span so fast as he approached the three on the grounds, he was just a blur of white. He came to a halt at Sinister's side and gave his leader a small nod, an evil smirk on his face as he looked over at the blue woman; the prize they had come to take. He crossed his arms over his chest as he looked at the man in the wheelchair. So this was the great Charles Xavier - Riptide wasn't impressed at all. He looked back to his boss, waiting for orders.
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 3:42pm
"Hello, Riptide," he said, smiling at the shorter man, dressed in a tight-fitting white suit that seemed to shimmer as he moved. "I'd like you to take care of any interference while I take our prize back home," he said, indicating Mystique.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 3:43pm
Gabrielle felt the danger that it was watching to the mansion, went out running of his quarter to direct for him to the Grounds. She saw Scott in the distance and running it put itself next to you saying; "What happens Scott?". Then his eyes went towards the figures that were there, one of them, he was a giant, of vampire aspect, he had to Mistic. His eyes were opened completely impressed.

Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 3:45pm "We're under attack. Get Eagle, Tim, Pheobe, Typhoid, Kitty and Bobby. I'm heading outside." Scott firmly said to Gabby. Once the order was given, he ran outside. Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 3:46pm Riptide gave a nod as he smirked, turning his attention back to Xavier. 'I don't see your famous X-Men running to save the day,' he said in a deep voice, sliding a shuriken from his belt, slowly. Posted by Bobby Drake on Jun 8, 2007, 3:46pm Bobby saw cyclops talking to gabrielle in an urgent voice, so he headed over to see what was going on. Scott had his battle visor on. What's going on, Scott? " he asked, frowning Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 3:48pm "Outside. We're under attack." Scott relayed to Bobby. Once outside, Cyclops arrived at Xavier's side, taking in the situation. Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 3:49pm @@@blockbuster@@@ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockbuster_%28Marauder%29Stomping his gigantic feet even harder for a frightening effect, the enormous shape of Blockbuster appeared behind Sinister. "Ready to rrrumble yet?" he boomed, not referring to anyone in particular. Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 3:49pm ::Pietro, hearing his Uncle's mental call, rolled out of bed and quickly put on his boots and dressed. He shook Wanda awake, a serious looked on his face, more serious than usual.:: "We're under attack." ::He knew that his sister was grateful that he woke her this time. Once she was dressed, he picked her up. Carrying her downstairs, he sped, quick as lightning, until they were out on the grounds. Setting her down gently, he gave their Uncle a nod. His eyes focusing on their attackers.:: "You were saying?" Posted by Bobby Drake on Jun 8, 2007, 3:50pm Bobby's eyes widened, and he hurried outside next to scotta nd the professor. Who are they? " he asked hurriedly, seeing unfamiliar men, one of which was holding mystique Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 3:51pm Gabrielle affirmed with the head and instantaneously it called them by telepathy; ** Wings, Kitty , Phoe, Tim, Bobby . We are low attack. We have to meet, rapidly. ll!! ** Posted by The Man on Jun 8, 2007, 3:51pm ::Xavier wheeled forward, when Essex called in his Marauders. If possible, they appeared even more blood-thirsty and psychotic than the last batch. Hearing Pietro and Scott arrived, he addressed them, but did not dare turn his head away from Essex.:: "They have Raven, and they want the child." Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 3:53pm "Thank you for joining us, Blockbuster," he said, turning to see one of his other minions. "There will be plenty of time to 'rumble', as I see the cavalry is arriving, no doubt thanks to the man in front of you," he said, gesturing to Xavier. "I suppose we'll do this the hard way," he mused. Then suddenly, he used his telekinesis to force Xavier's chair back a few feet, to show he was now anything but the giddy man he was a few moments ago. Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 3:55pm ::Seeing the wheelchair forced backward, Pietro sped behind it, caught it, and steadied his Uncle. Fighting the handicapped, attacking children, and putting his sister at risk. These mutants were asking for it.:: "Try somebody your own size." Posted by Kitty Pryde on Jun 8, 2007, 3:56pm Kitty ran down the hall with a frown on her face after hearing Gabby's mental call from her room. She was hoping this was a drill, but she was guessing it wasn't from the noises from outside. She bit her lip as she saw Gabby, reaching her. "Hey-" she said quickly, "What's going on?" Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 3:56pm we are attacked out side!!!! Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 3:57pm Phoebe, waking with a start from Gabby's mental call, rolled quickly out of bed and dashed to her door. Opening it, she ran down the corridor to where her friend was. "What's happening?" she asked hurriedly. Seeing Kitty already there, she assumed nothing good. Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 3:57pm Once Pietro had stablized the Professor, Cyclops stepped forward. "Why do you want her?" Cyclops questioned. He didn't think it'd work, but getting him talking would be a chance for the others to get out here. |

@@@riptide@@@
Riptide didn't even hide the sn*gger as his boss forced Xavier backwards, but as he did so he scanned the arriving X-men.
'Nice visor,' he said with a smirk to the first man that had arrived, looking back at Blockbuster in a way to tell him that he could kill that one first.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 3:58pm
We are being attacked, the team has to be assembled,-said Gabby at phoe.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 3:58pm
@@@blockbuster@@@
"And who would be my own size, you?" Blockbuster whooped, stretching his huge shoulders. He was easily five or six times larger than Quicksilver.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 3:59pm
Phoebe swore under her breath, but nodded.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 3:59pm
and tim an d wings...where is they?
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 4:00pm
She shook her head. "I don't know," she replied. "Maybe in his dorm?" She glanced worriedly from Gabby to Kitty.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 4:01pm
"At least I'm standing," ::Pietro replied, his eyes angry slits. The mutant before him was a giant, but that would only make him slower.::
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 4:02pm
"I'm sure your leader has explained matters to you? Or maybe he's simply losing touch," he said, stroking his chin with a finger. "Either way, it doesn't concern you in the slightest, boy," he said to Cyclops. He wasn't to be fooled, the man was just trying to get him to go into what he planned to do, perhaps drone on about his goals, and wait until the full cavalry has arrived.
"It matters none. I'll be leaving now. Riptide, Blockbuster, I trust you two will take care of things, being more than capable," he drawled. Still using his telekinesis, he pulled Mystique alongside him, like one would a pet on a tight leash.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 4:03pm
<<that happens, before she was kidnapped>>
She was making some food in the kitchen with her ipod in the ears as she got Nights mental call. Turning out the ipod and put it on the table. Then she run outside down and saw the others. "Another attack?" she shouted and reached them very quick.
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 4:04pm
Cyclops let off a powerful blast at Essex, trying to knock him out.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:04pm
@@@riptide@@@
At the sight of more people leaving the mansion and heading towards them, Riptide stepped closer to the growing group. Many of the new arrivals were still only teenagers.
This will be too easy
'My, my, the great X-men have been reduced to using children? What is becoming of this place?' he taunted, now holding the shuriken by an edge, ready to attack.
As the first arrival sent a blast of red light towards Sinister, Riptide let out a small noise of frustration, beginning to spin, hoping that his boss could deflect the beam himself, or at least Blockbuster could sheild him. Riptide himself was not good with powers like that.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 4:05pm
Phoebe nodded in response to Wings. Turning to Night, she asked, "What about the other students? Are they in the tunnels?"
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 4:06pm
On having seen that they all were, Gabrielle said; We go out, they need help!! Shade it deals with other students, it will take them to the tunnels.
((Tim is not, it is included, we will continue as if it was he who was))
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:06pm
@@@blockbuster@@@
"Sure thing, boss," he said, rubbing his fist in a palm of his other hand. "We'll clear this place a bit."
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 4:07pm
Glancing back only once, she turned and nodded resolutely, following her team outside where the enemy and the other X-Men had gathered.

Gabrielle went out out with his team. " We have to stay together ". She saw the X-men in the grounds and to the attackers.
Posted by The Man on Jun 8, 2007, 4:09pm
::Xavier ignored the remark about using children for battle. He had begun training his X-Men at that age, and it was necessary, to protect themselves from maniacs like the man before him. He continued to wheel forward, unaffected by the optic blast that whizzed over his head. There were advantages to being seated.:: "You'll let her go."
Posted by Kitty Pryde on Jun 8, 2007, 4:11pm
Kitty stayed near Phoebe as they got outside, biting her lip as she saw the scene outside. She had been situations like this before, but she always felt like she wasn't ready whenever they came, but she guessed she would have to be.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 4:14pm
She turned around and during she walked to the door, she spread out her wings. That was something other like the danger room, that was real and she hoped, that she could handle the situation. She took a breathe and looked around as they reached the grounds.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 4:15pm
Phoebe glanced at Kitty for reassurance. Of the team, Shadowcat was really the only one who had seen battle as an X-Men. But she looked just as disturbed as Phoebe felt. She tried to give her phasing friend a reassuring smile, though it was only half felt.
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 4:16pm
Seeing the beam of light coming at him, he lifted off the ground and flew to the side, pulling Mystique along. Settling back on the ground, he turned to the one with the optic beams, and Xavier, who was wheeling after them.
Pulling Mystique closer to him, he wrapped an arm around her waist, shifting her until she was half over his shoulder. "You attack me, and you'll undoubtably hurt her. Which is the last thing I assume you want to do," he drawled.
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 4:19pm
Cyclops power gave him a number of 'side effects', smaller things no one would think of. One of those was an excellent ability to judge spacial relationship.
He used that now, trying to judge if he could get a shot off without hurting Raven. After a moment, he took another shot, aiming for Essex's head.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 4:20pm
Gabrielle and the team came up to where the attack was taking place, they put themselves behind the X-men and when she saw what that vampiric mutant was doing to Mistic and to Xavier, his eyes were opened terrified.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:21pm
@@@riptide@@@
'That's it,' Riptide half-shrieked as another beam passed across the scene, 'visor guy is out of here,'
He began to spin so fast he was a blur. He was well-trained at aiming even whilst moving at these speeds and threw a shuriken towards the man's chest.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 4:22pm
Phoebe watched as the senior team aimed for...a guy who looked like he didn't get much sunlight. But they were hesitant. Furrowing her brows, she strained to see why. When she saw the reason, it took every once of will she had not to rush into the thick of things.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 4:23pm
::Pietro's vision was, at times, akin to that of a fly. Able to see what would happen right before it did. As the shuriken soared through the air, he ran and pushed Scott out of the way. It might off-set the other man, but at least he would be alive.::
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:29pm
@@@blockbuster@@@
"Boys and girls, shouldn't you be sitting at home crying?" Blockbuster inquired in a patronizing tone, heading towards the group of younger X-Men. These would be as easy to pin down as flexing his fingers.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 4:33pm
Phoebe turned to the big guy with the patronizing voice and rolled her eyes. "And who the hell are you supposed to be?"
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 4:35pm
Gabrielle smiled saying: " The truth is that I was already getting bored " .- Said putting itself in guard.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:39pm
@@@blockbuster@@@
"I'm supposed to be kicking your ass, girlie," he sneered, swinging his arm to blow Phoebe off her feet.

Cyclops was pushed by Pietro. As soon as he landed, he stood up, glad he got off his shot before being pushed.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 4:41pm
Phoebe avoided her assailant's swing by flying up and over the big brute. Landing on the other side, she lashed out and tried to kick him off his feet.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 4:42pm
Gabrielle acted at once, rapidly it formed a magnetic field , that field protected his friends . - I believe that you have been wrong with me baby.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:43pm
@@@riptide@@@
He glared at the white haired man who had stopped what would have been a fatal blow to the visor wearing mutant.
'How noble,' he murmered before he began to spin at high speeds again, sending another shuriken towards the white haired mutant.
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 4:44pm
Much to his annoyance, he saw the man shoot off another beam, aiming towards his head. "Fine," he snapped. Flicking his wrist, he used his telekinesis to misdirect the beam, causing it to fly upward into the sky. "You wish to play this way, then I shall play." Glancing over into the woods, he spotted a large tree branch on the ground. It flew towards the energy blaster, currently on the ground from dodging one of Riptide's shuriken.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 4:45pm
Eaglewing stood beside Phoebe and flight into the air as he swung his arm. With a few beat with her wings she was far over him, where his arms could not reach her.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 4:45pm
::Pietro had managed to keep his balance when pushing Scott aside. The shuriken whizzed by, and he didn't care to see where it landed. It hadn't hit any of the students, or the X-men, or his sister, and that was all Pietro cared about.
Hearing the taunt, he glared at his foe.:: "Somebody has to be."
::As the second shuriken was thrown, Pietro dodged at lightning fast speed, watching as it, too, whizzed by.:: "Finished?"
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 4:47pm
Cyclops cursed under his breath when Essex deflected the beam, and threw a branch at him. He let off a wide shot, demolishing the branch into many tiny pieces. "Quicksliver, get the fast guy. Iceman, freeze the big guy."
Posted by Kitty Pryde on Jun 8, 2007, 4:47pm
Kitty stayed intangible as she avoided the conflict until she wouldn't get in the way, running towards Phoebe to help her with the mutant she was fighting, concentrating staying phased so no one could touch her.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:48pm
@@@riptide@@@
Riptide let out a low growl as he glared at the mutant who moved as fast as he. He hated it when people showed his powers up.
'Not quite,' he replied, spinning and throwing three shurikens with each hand.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:49pm
@@@blockbuster@@@
As the girl he had attacked landed behind him and tried to kick him, Blockbuster turned around calmly. She looked like a kitten compared to his massive form. "I can stand like this all day," he informed her. "But I'll get bored," he swung his arm again, aiming to blow her off her feet and send her flying across the ground.
Posted by Wanda Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 4:49pm
Standing by and watching was something Wanda didn't like to do. And these shuriken that the annoying man was throwing were growing tiresome. Hands glowing red, she shot a hex bolt at the shuriken, causing it to change course, heading towards the mountain of a man off to the one side.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 4:50pm
Phoebe flew backward as the big brute landed a blow, the wind temporarily knocked out of her. Coughing, she looked up and grinned at Gabby. "I ain't goin' down that easy, Gabs," she replied, getting back on her feet.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 4:52pm
"I'll get him," ::Pietro said by way of acknowledgment of Scott's order. He ducked as the shuriken changed course, going back towards the mutant who had thrown it. Wanda had found her bearings and was in the battle, now.
Gathering his strength, he ran at full tackle towards the faster mutant, intent on restraining him. As the shurikens went flying, he lowered his head, compressing his body mass.::
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:54pm
@@@riptide@@@
Riptide caught sight of the blur of the other mutant as he sped towards him and knew if he would be any use he had to avoid him. He span quite literally in circles around the fight, forcing a strong wind across the scene.

I know, but Phoe, I have thought something that perhaps can be risky.-Gabrielle increased his magnetic field to cover his team
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 4:56pm
Phoebe's hair blew into her eyes, and she searched for the cause of the whirlwind. It couldn't be Storm; she was nowhere to be seen. Her eyes narrowed and she wished like Hell she had thought to pull her hair back.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 4:56pm
She fly higher and fixed then a point on his head. Flattering a while on the air, she got down in a fast swoop.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 4:56pm
@@@blockbuster@@@
Deflected by the other girl's powers, Riptide's shuriken hit him, getting stuck in his hand. Blockbuster pulled it out and tossed aside, not even flinching a muscle; it would require much more physical strength to make him even as much as stumble.
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 4:58pm
"Night, see what you can do with the man who has Mystique. Firestorm, help Night." Cyclops yelled out orders, he didn't have time to explain to Iceman.
He shot off another targeted beam towards the man.
Posted by Wanda Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 4:58pm
Wanda glared in his direction. So he needed something bigger for it to hurt? She would find something. Glancing around, she spied a tree, split in half from lightning. Full of splintery edges. Flicking her wrist, she shot a bolt at it, causing it to wrench itself out of the ground, pointed end speeding at the behemoth.
Posted by Kitty Pryde on Jun 8, 2007, 4:58pm
Kitty almost reached Phoebe, keeping her distance so she wouldn't mess either of them up, ready to take her arm if one of the mutants made a move that she wasn't ready for, but Phoebe looked more than ready.
"Do you need any help?" she called out to her.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 5:02pm
Phoe, we have to help Mistic!!! .-Shout Gabrielle.
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 5:02pm
"This grows tiresome," ::Essex said, wearily. That that one of his Marauders was rendered nearly useless by a similar mutant deeply irritated him. That the second-in-command would send a slight woman after him was laughable. Night? She knew nothing of darkness.
Mystique still slung over his shoulder, he rose further into the air, creating a telekinetic forcefield around he and the carrier of his specimen.::
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 5:02pm
Phoebe, back on her feet and ready for action, flinched as the big brute was hit by his teammate's shuriken and didn't even blink. This was going to be harder than she thought.
Seeing Kitty, an idea came to her mind. She nodded in reply. "I've got an idea," she called.
To Night, she called, "You and Wings help Mystique. Shadowcat and I will take care of the brute."
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 5:03pm
She reached his head and pushed her feet into the neck. A pain went through her ankles and a strong shuriken got her out of the fligh. She swooped a few times through the air and back from the attacker, till she got back the control over the fly and started to get into the air again.
Posted by Kitty Pryde on Jun 8, 2007, 5:05pm
Kitty nodded, running closer to Phoebe, wanting to help in anyway she could.
"Just tell me what you need me to do-" she said quickly, her eyes wide as she glanced around the scene.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 5:07pm
Gabrielle acted at once and to prevent from escaping with Mistic, rose in the air creating a magnetic field around his until it put itself to the same height as the vampire and prevent from forming a magnetic field about him: " You are not going to go nowhere Vampire!!!! "
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 5:07pm
"We've gotta take him out," she replied, pointing to the brute. "But he's not easy to move. Think you can phase him into the ground?"

@@@blockbuster@@@
Hearing crackle of a big trunk of wood torn out of its place behind him, Blockbuster turned around - just in time to override its blow with his hand. The weight was huge, and he staggered a bit, but not enough to lose his balance.
With a scowl he turned at the woman who had obviously manipulated the tree, just like she had done with the shuriken a moment ago. Stomping his feet with determination, he headed towards her.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:08pm
::Pietro sped after the other fast mutant. Did he think a game of cat and mouse would defeat him? Gaining speed, he kept his hips in place, to help counteract the sudden gust of wind.:: "You can't run."
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 5:08pm
Unable to affect the pale man for the moment, Cyclops turned to the big brute. Quicksliver, could handle himself, and had Wanda for back up. Cyclops let off one of his more powerful blasts at the man.
Posted by Wanda Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:10pm
She saw the behemoth of a man being to stomp towards her, like a rhinoceros on a rampage. Both hands still shining scarlet, she made a gesture, wrenching an entire tree from its spot, roots and all, sending it flying at the man. "Try this," she said darkly.

He stopped spinning abruptly, hoping the speed demon would continue in confusion for at least a moment. He slid a shuriken into his palm in a split second.
Posted by Kitty Pryde on Jun 8, 2007, 5:11pm
Kitty nodded as the large man started to move, and she nodded again towards Phoebe as she took in a breath, sliding through the ground as she phased under, staying intangible until she phased back up where she thought the man would be, looking up to see his feet right above her head as she grabbed them, taking another breath and tugging him down, hoping that phasing him through the ground would work.
She pushed herself back a few feet underground before phasing back up, taking in a breath.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:12pm
::Pietro wasn't so easily confused. He came to a quick halt when the other mutant stopped running. Face-to-face, not more than five feet apart, he stared the other man down.:: "Say goodnight."
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 5:14pm
Gabrielle looked at his enemy and concentrated to the maximum, this time needed the control for that he had always looked. I look at Mistic and his worry grew more. It reinforced his mental shields to the maximum, remembering the mental exercises of charles . " I believe that today you remain here with us! "
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 5:14pm

Riptide frowned before a smirk replaced the somber features.
'Goodnight,' he obliged as she spun suddenly, throwing an arm out to knock Pietro off his feet and away.
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 5:15pm
"Vampire, you say?" ::Essex asked with a deep chuckle. The comparison was apt, in some ways. He certainly was genetically superior to those around him, was long-lived, and commanded forces beyond their comprehension.:: "Vampires are the stuff of stories. I'm the shaper of the future."
::He felt her puny attempts to break through his forcefield, and he reinforced it without any difficulty. Using his abilities, he rose another fifty feet in the air.::
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 5:16pm
She flew very high to see the whole battlefield behind her. Then she send a mental message to Night 'Do you need help?' and got higher. Taking her eagle eyes to see all things very clear behind her and checked quick the grounds around the mansion. Hopefully, there were no other attackers in the darkness.

@@@blockbuster@@@
The tree trunk would have surely hit Blockbuster, but right at this moment he was pulled through the ground by Shadowcat, and the tree went flying over his head directly at Wanda. Cyclops's optic blast also missed the top of Blockbuster's head by an inch.
The Marauder growled and turned his body back and forth, working with his feet to rip himself out of the ground.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 5:18pm
"Ahhh ... that interesting, you are going to give me lessons of history? Im sorry, one has forgotten me the paper and the pencil " .-Said she with irony looking at it without fright . - Leaves Mistic, now!!!!.- She continued it, rose up to his same hight - You are not going to go out from here sugar!!!
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:18pm
::Pietro felt the arm knock him off his feet. Now he was livid; the last person to lay a hand on him had been the bartender, back in Romania. Much like with that bartender, it would be the last punch to make contact this fight.
Pushing himself to his feet, he charged the other mutant, wrestling him to the ground.::
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 5:19pm
Cyclops was pleased that the big guy was caught, but had seen powerful people rip their way through the ground, so he let off another powerful blast, aimed at the guys chest.

The tree she sent flying at the man missed as he suddenly fell down, and now the tree was speeding towards her. She waved her hand, but the hex backfired and tree kept coming. She fell to the ground as it shot past, branches whipping in her face, scratching her.
"That does it," she said angrily, standing up again. Walking closer to the battle, she extended both arms, and summoned the same tree, sending it at the man who held the blue demon captive. She would put all grudges aside, for now, and do her best to help her.
Posted by Kitty Pryde on Jun 8, 2007, 5:20pm
Sh*t- Kitty thought as she realized the mutant would've gotten hit, and there was still a chance for him to get out of the ground. If she had waited a moment, then it might have just worked.
She looked over at Phoebe for help, "Maybe you can get him while he can't move-" she called out.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 5:22pm
Seeing her plan have somewhat of an anticlimactic success, she glanced at Kitty, who looked a bit disoriented. Though she felt guilty, they didn't have time for apologies. The brute was only incapacitated, not out.
Another idea struck her. Turning to her teammate, she said, "Take my hand."
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 5:22pm
"Why would I do that?" ::Essex asked, the sadistic smirk on his features growing wider. He could oblige her, of course, by ripping the child from the woman's belly. But that would be later, once these runts had been properly dealt with.
So she thought she could fly; how quaint. Using his telekinesis, he sent the other mutant for a flight...clear across the grounds
Essex flew another fifty feet in the air, narrowly avoiding the tree as it whizzed by. This was a young woman he hadn't taken notes on. Not telekinesis, something else. Worth studying.::

@@@riptide@@@
Riptide hit the ground hard and groaned. He hated fist fighting but in times like these he had little choice. He gripped the other man's arm with one hand while the other grabbed at his throat.
Posted by Kitty Pryde on Jun 8, 2007, 5:23pm
Kitty nodded as she reached Phoebe, grasping her hand quickly and making them intangible from attack, ready for whatever she had in mind.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 5:24pm
She saw more attackers were coming to the mansion. In a few seconds they would reach the battlefield. She swooped down to Phoebe and Kitty, shouting "There are more attackers coming through the grounds".
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 5:26pm
Gabrielle looked at it with fury saying to him. " Is it that you cannot face me, that you send to others in your place? " .-she Said on having seen that it was in charge to other of his marionettes. She called mentally Wings. ** Wings, please deal the one that has flying. ""
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:27pm
::Feeling the hand tighten around his throat, Pietro was reminded of one too many fights with Hank. He'd lived through those, and he wouldn't succumb at the hands of a fellow speedster with an attitude problem.
Bringing his knee up, he slammed it into the other man's groin, hard. His voice came out in a squeak, air constricted.:: "Weak as a kitten."
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 5:27pm
@@@blockbuster@@@
As he was struggling to get out of the ground, he was hit hard in the chest by Cyclops's optic blast. The shot was hard, and he gave a groan as he collapsed on his back. The force of it finally tore him out of the ground, making him slide a few feet.

Riptide let go of the other man's throat in excruciating pain, as he squirmed, face contorted.
'You bastard,' she managed in a breathless and higher voice.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 5:31pm
Phoebe went up to the disoriented brute. She wore a disgusted, reluctant look on her face. But as much as she didn't want to, it had to be done. She just hoped it worked.
Reaching out to the mutant, she let her hand slide through his throat and found his windpipe. Letting go of Shadowcat's hand, she grabbed it and squeezed, trying to cut off his air supply to knock him all the way out.
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 5:33pm
Cyclops was about to shoot the brute again, hoping to knock him out, when Pheobe blocked his view, doing something to him. Cyclops frowned, but turned his attention to the fast mutant, who had stopped. He leveled a shot at him.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:34pm
"Don't you *ever* bring up my parents," ::Pietro grated, through clenched teeth and a weakened throat. Nobody ever called him names that brought back memories of Magneto or his mother, may she rest in peace.
Taking the opportunity, he used his free arm, now balled into a fist, and punched the other mutant square in the nose. The sound of shattered cartilage loud in his ears.::

@@@riptide@@@
Riptide groaned, holding a hand to his bleeding and broken nose, spitting blood away that had gotten into his mouth. In desperation he grabbed a shuriken from his suit and with a shaking hand went to stab it in the mutant's leg.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 5:37pm
Gabrielle avoided the same tree as the vampire while it was flying behind his. - I am going to follow You to where you should go!!!!
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 5:38pm
Phoebe ducked, dodging the brute's attack. It made sense he would try to knock her off him, so she'd been ready for it from the start. Her grip tightened. "Let go, big guy," she murmured. "Just let go."
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 5:39pm
"Psychologcal tricks won't work on me," ::Essex said to the mutant who thought, laughably, that he considered her his equal, or worse, his better. Instead, he had no tolerance for the mere trifles of students. So much for the control and peace that Xavier boasted.
As she flew towards him again, he sent her flying for the errant tree branch. Perhaps head trauma would put her in her place.::
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 5:41pm
The branch of tree hit his magnetic field without doing to him any alone scrape. She looked at it saying to him; " is This everything what you can do?!!! " "

Blockbuster swung his arms, sending powerful blows in all directions, knowing he wouldn't miss her that way, though he could barely think at this point, suffocating and pained. He tried to stand up on his feet.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:43pm
::Searing pain shot through Pietro's leg as the shuriken pierced his skin. Nobody hurt his legs and got away with it, particularly not this mutant who had become a traitor to his own kind. Ignoring the pain as best he could, he took both arms, the other now free, and grabbed the other man's shoulders. Lifting them up with his strength, he quickly slammed back down on the ground, Riptide's head flying backward, into the ground.::
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 5:44pm
Phoebe tried to duck, and though she dodged several, she knew she couldn't dodge them all. With her hand stuck in the brute's throat, he was just making it harder on himself.
She took a blow to the side and cried out, her hand jerking involuntarily.
((I miscalculated his size. Very sorry. I just don't want to rip my arm OUT of his throat. That could hurt. I don't have Shadowcat's ability anymore.))
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 5:46pm
With Pheobe dodging, Cyclops decided to take a chance, and let off another high powered beam at the big mutant, trying to time it not to hit Pheobe.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 5:47pm
@@@riptide@@@
Incapable of defending himself, Riptide's head hit the ground with a loud thud and he felt himself, slipping out of consciousness, at risk of choking on his own blood.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 5:48pm
Eaglewing saw the fight of the giant and got a branch. "Hang on" she shouted to Phoebe as she fly into the air to get some speed for a punch with the branch to the giant.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 5:49pm
((Scott, you suck. Lol.))
Phoebe yelped as an energy blast struck the mutant. Whipping her head around, she saw Cyclops and realized she wasn't the target. She had to hand it to Scott: he had pretty good aim.
Posted by nonplayercharacter on Jun 8, 2007, 5:49pm
@@@blockbuster@@@
(( "winced"? after a blow from a 400-pound guy? whoa. ))
He grabbed the girl by the hand and squeezed it, attempting to either break her hand or at least tear it out of his neck already. Light was going dimmer in his eyes at the lack of oxygen, but he still could breathe a little.
An optic blast hit him, and he fell back on the ground, bringing the girl down together with him.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:49pm
::Pietro felt the man beneath him go slack, slipping into unconsciousness. Rolling off him, he pulled the shuriken from his leg and forced it into the ground. Blood seeped from his leg, and pain erupted, two-fold.
He forced himself to his feet, his hips compensating for his leg. If he ran, it would be with a limp.:: "Scott!"

Cyclops whipped around to where Pietro was...limping? He turned his attention for a moment from the big mutant and ran over to where Pietro was.
"What happend?" Scott asked, trying to keep an eye on both the pale man and on the big guy.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:54pm
"Mine's down. Do you need help?" ::Pietro called out, gritting his teeth against the pain in his leg. The Goliath was still fighting, and if he was needed, he'd be there to help.::
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 5:55pm
Cyclops frowned, noticing Pheobe in trouble. "I think we could. Are you sure you are up for it?" He asked, leveling another beam at the guy.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 5:55pm
She flew down and to push the brench into the giant, but he sank down and took Phoebe with him. Directly, she stopped and landed beside her. A pain went through her feets and she groaned. "Phoebe? Are you ok?" she gasped, but was unable to do a step.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 5:57pm
"I can still walk," ::Pietro replied. He had a stiff upper lift, and a high threshold for pain. Running over to them, although not as fast as usual, he found himself beside Scott. Facing the Goliath who had Phoebe, the spit-fire to whom he was indebted. Yes, this mutant had it in for him as well.::
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 5:58pm
Phoebe could still breathe, thankfully, but the brute refused to go down, and she was starting to get angry. "I will be if this guy would just let go and pass out already," she replied.

The girl's hand snapped like a match in his hands. He made another attempt to stand up, though ground was already shaking beneath his feet as he was quickly losing the remains of his oxygen.

"Hardly, but you aren't formidable enough," ::Essex said to the other mutant, with a sneer. With a wave of his hand, he used his telekinesis to send her flying towards the side of the mansion.::
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:01pm
Cyclops was worried about Quicksliver, but he was thankful for his help. Instead, Cyclops let another beam go off, it was stronger then the last, seeing how Blockbuster had practically ignored his last shots.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 6:02pm
Phoebe shouted in pain and tried to tug her arm out of the mutant's throat.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 6:03pm
Eaglewing took the branch and flew over the giants face. With all her power, she slapped with the branch into his face.
Posted by Kitty Pryde on Jun 8, 2007, 6:03pm
Kitty's eyes widened as she narrowed her eyes at the man and grabbed Phoebe's other wrist, phasing her out of the man's throat.
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 6:05pm
Phoebe's arm slid out of the man's throat easily and she held it to her, wincing in pain. Turning to Kitty, she said, "Thanks." She flinched again. "I'm out. I gotta get this looked at. Damn giant broke my arm."

Gabrielle felt like it was flying at big speed next to mansion , but it could become stable, rapidly continued the flight, lifted one of his hands and using his magnetism paralyzed it saying. " I neither am arrogant, nor am formidable, only I want that me give to Mistic now!!!! " .-She controlled his power, could remove the iron of the blood flow of him completely across the skin paralyzing it at once.
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:08pm
"Two down.."Cyclops muttered. He turned his attention to the mutant with Mystique. "Quicksliver, go get yourself looked at." He yelled. The fast mutant wouldn't be much help with a flying foe.
"Wanda, what can you do about getting that shield around him gone?" He asked.
Posted by Wanda Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 6:08pm
Now she was angry. Pietro was hurt, and they were all stockpiling on the behemoth, trying to knock him out. She saw a student trying to attack the pale man, who seemed to be telekinetic. And then the student flew back, on a path that would make her hit the mansion. No one hurt students, children, while she still had fight in her.
She ran until she was nearly beneath where the pale puppeteer hovered, at least fifty feet above her. "It won't do to ignore me." Clenching her fist, the ground itself ripped open, as a giant boulder became unearthed and flew in his direction, ten times as fast as the tree had been.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 6:09pm
After the giant collapsed, she flew over to Phoebe and Kitty. Using the branch as stick when she landed and asked "Are you both ok?"
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 6:10pm
Phoebe nodded. "I think so," she replied with a pained expression.
Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 6:10pm
::Essex used his telekinesis to divert the boulder away from him. The witch was a wonder, worth studying, so rather than crush her, he sent it towards the gathering of mutants beside his dead Marauder.::
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 6:12pm
"That was a good job" she said and looked to the dead giant "But I saw some more attackers are coming to the mansion"
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:12pm
Cyclops saw the boulder coming, and used a powerful blast to break it into smaller pieces. He was starting to get tired, but had to keep going until they had Raven back.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 6:13pm
"I fight until I can't stand," ::Pietro replied to Scott, teeth still clenched. If he ignored the pain, and ran quickly enough, he could lift off the ground. If lucky, he could knock their foe down with him.::
Posted by Phoebe on Jun 8, 2007, 6:14pm
Phoebe made her way as fast as she could back to the mansion and the lab. It was just a broken bone. Surely she could get it patched up and get back out there within a few minutes.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 6:15pm
Gabrielle without fear, approached him saying to him: " Give me to Mistic Vampire, we can continue hours like that, if the whole night is possible "
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:15pm
"Fine, but the minute you start getting in the way, you leave. Understand?" Cyclops responded, this wasn't the time to get into a fight with Pietro.
Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 6:17pm
"Understood," ::Pietro said. If he became useless, Scott had every right to force him out. Until he reached that point, he was here to fight.::
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 6:22pm
"Take care" she said to Phoebe and looked into the air. Then she saw Night and swung up into the air very fast with the branch in her hand. Only some seconds later, she was beside her and said "Air fight. You need help?"

Caring not for her ability, he caused her to sommersault twice, before sending her careening for the ground. Her wings seemingly locked in place, unable to beat.:: Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 6:25pm Gabrielle, on having heard his friend, a smile appeared in his lips. " Oh, yes please.

(I'm off for the night, but feel free to rp Kitty's actions!  ) Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:26pm Cyclops shot at Essex again. He didn't think it would do much, but maybe it'd destract him long enough for one of the girls to get into a better postion. Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 6:30pm Gabrielle, on having seen that Scott was shooting the vampire, it was known that it was doing it to distract it and rapidly it lifted the hand and the body of Mystique could levitar in the air. Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 6:32pm Without her control she took some sommersaults. Unable to move her wings, she shot down very fast. That was a bad idea, but now it was too late. Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 6:33pm ::The force field bubble surrounding he and Mystique floated out of the path of Scott's blast, still holding strong. Essex kept his grip on Mystique; she wasn't going anywhere. He fixed the other mutant with a chastizing glare.:: "Not so fast."

Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 6:36pm ::Pietro followed the winged mutant's trajectory and ran beneath her. Holding out his arms, he dug his legs into the ground, prepared to catch her.:: "I have her." Posted by Wanda Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 6:36pm This man wasn't taking her seriously, and it was making her angry. She would teach him better. So he could redirect one large object? "Let's see how well you do with this," she muttered, clenching both fists, concentrating. The ground beneath them cracked, and a large rip grew in front of her, as if a tear in a seam. Rocks half as big as the boulder shot skyward at the speed of bullets, and a long sharp pipe was torn from the plumbing and followed the large rocks. Water sprayed forth from the jagged hole in the ground, making everything wet.

" Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 6:37pm As the last attacker was shoot, she got her control back and spread her wings. Using the batch to get up into the air again, but tried to fly a big circle, before turned back to the other man. Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:39pm "Wanda! You're just giving him ammunition! Is there anything you can do about his shield?" Cyclops shouted, keeping an eye on the boulders. Posted by Pietro Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 6:39pm ::The water spraying from the broken pipe coated Pietro's body. It began cleaning out his wound, his leg running red and brown from the blood and dirt coating him. Their attacker was going to suffer; Wanda was angry now.:: Posted by Nathaniel Essex on Jun 8, 2007, 6:41pm ::Essex was more concerned about those optic blasts than he was about the errant debris. As he dodged the blasts, he sent the debris back towards the ground. To Mystique, still conscious in his arms, he whispered, an evil grin on his face.:: "Try not to miscarry." |

"I'm working on it!" She yelled back to Scott, not tearing her eyes away from Essex. While the rocks and pipe came speeding towards him, she shot a hex bolt at him, trying to cause his shield to backfire.
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:42pm
Cyclops shot at Essex again, hoping he could just hit the damn guy. He was trying to make sure none of the debris would hit him or anyone else on the ground.

Gabrielle, looked at Wings and rapidly she created a shield about her pair about preventing from falling down again. " I have you, my friend "
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 6:50pm
She flew behind the man and waited till Scotts blast would hit his shield again.
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:51pm
Scott let another shot go at the shield, hoping Wanda's bolt would beat his there.

Morphing out of the foliage came a woman with long, light green hair. She was dressed in green and white spirals, and wore a nefarious smirk on her lips.
Seeing her leader being assailed by the X-Men, she scowled. Her teammates had been taken down. With silent fury, she sent psionic blasts to the group of mutants, the one in red and the energy blaster in particular. "It's time to say good night, children," she murmured.

::One of the Cyclop's blasts hit his shield, weakening it momentarily. Fortunately for Essex, another of his Marauders appeared, giving something to distract those meddlng X-Men while he flew higher and regained his shielding.::

Mystique saw all that was going on around her, the efforts put forth to try and release her from this monster's grasp.
Essex cradled her in his arms, still refusing to allow her to move, and still refusing her from speaking out loud. He whispered to her, teased her. Her eyes flared with rage once more. If anything happens to this baby, I will rip out your tongue and vocal cords with my bare hands, she fumed.
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:54pm
Scott started to feel very dizzy. He was trying to keep his footing, keep his aim. He didn't dare make another shot until this went away. He was trying to glance around, see if he could see anyone.

Her evil smile widened as she saw the energy blaster lose his concentration. "That's right," she murmured. "Down you go."

As the blast hit the shield, she tried to push the branch very hard through the shield in his back.

::Flying higher in the air, avoiding the brach, still holding Mystique in his arms, Essex smiled, flashing his bright teeth. He had no fear of her; she was his to control. Intent on proving that, he took control of her vocal chords, forcing her to speak against her thoughts.:: *Tell them you want to go with me.*

Gabrielle promoted his speed, flying behind his. " You do not go away from here coward! "
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 6:57pm
Cyclops just barely noticed a Woman he didn't recognize behind him. He gritted his teeth and attempted to stablaize just long enough to hit her.

Wanda clutched her head, feeling nauseous and dizzy all of a sudden. Looking around, she saw a new face, a green-haired woman, hands outstretched towards her and Scott. "Scott, I'll get her," she yelled.
Furious, her hands becoming two twin balls of shining red light, she shot hex bolts at the woman, trying to cause the woman's attack to backfire.

Seeing what the red woman and energy blaster planned to do, she said, "Naughty, naughty. It's time for you to sleep." She increased her attack.
Posted by Night Arcangel on Jun 8, 2007, 7:01pm
On having seen that was being attacked, rapidly Gabrielle promoted his shield doing that the blaster will bounce going towards his attacker.
Posted by Typhoid Mary on Jun 8, 2007, 7:02pm
"What the hell-" Typhoid hadn't come running until she heard the attack begin, far out by the lake. She'd come as fast as she could but even running didn't get her there fast enough. Stopping at a dead standstill, she stood trying to drink in the attack- the man directing them, with Myst in his hands, and the others attacking.
The man with the diamond on his forehead felt so familiar...
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 7:02pm
Cyclops gritted his teeth and just tried to stay upright. He was already feeling his energy levels ebb just due to the fight. This was not helping.
Posted by Wanda Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 7:04pm
The pounding in her head increased, forcing her to go to her knees in pain. "Don't...think so," she muttered, grimacing. She saw Scott was in similar pain. Reaching out, she hexed the tree behind the green-haired woman, causing some of its roots to come up, wrapping around her ankles and tugging.

"Down you go," she continued to murmur. From the corner of her eye, she saw another of Xavier's lackies. She tried to let her psionic blasts hit the new arrival as well as the energy blaster and the red woman, but was thwarted when she was tripped. She went down angrily.
Posted by Eaglewing on Jun 8, 2007, 7:07pm
She recognised, that Scott had some problems and looked down. There was a woman nearly him and she whished to have some other powers, just her wings and eagle eyes. Then she got an idea and hoped that it could work. Carefully, she moved into a silent gliding fligh through the trees.
Posted by Mystique on Jun 8, 2007, 7:07pm
His whisper in her mind, her voice acting against her, it was too much.
"It's alright, I want to go with him," she said, her voice sounding dull.
For that, I'll kill you myself, she said, her mental voice almost a bellow.
Posted by Storm on Jun 8, 2007, 7:07pm
Storm came abruptly from the sky, moving on wind and flashing lightning. "Scott!" she yelled trying to get his attention, force him to keep upright.

Gabrielle, become stable in the air, start a bank of the garden and his attacker is thrown. " I do not believe it "
Posted by Scott Summers on Jun 8, 2007, 7:09pm
Cyclops heard Storm. "Get her." He mumbled. He was still upright, but barely. He had sunk down to he knees. He just needed a second, a second without feeling like he was going to faint. Then he could knock her out.

::Seeing the young woman he had kidnapped run onto the battlefield, Essex's grin grew wider. He sent a telepathic message to her.:: *Now you'll remember...*

Storm landed in front of Vertigo, hissing "Let them go," her eyes crackling with fury.

The attention of the woman was more at the ground and it was her chance. She grabbed the woman behind their chest and flew very quick into the air "Time to fly" she said.

She grinned maliciously. "Make me," she replied. She focused her psionic waves on Storm, attempting to make the weather woman dizzy as she had to the energy blaster, Cyclops. Before she could, however, the winged mutant carried her off.
Redirecting her psionic blasts to her captor, she murmured hypnotically, "Sleep."
Posted by Typhoid Mary on Jun 8, 2007, 7:14pm
Typhoid felt as if she'd been hit in the head with a large boulder for a moment, hearing Essex's words, trying to fight them, but failing almost instantly. Her eyes first turned green, then entirely black, green energy spreading outwards from her, and she focused on Storm in front of Vertigo.
"I remember what I have to do..." she murmured almost in a trance, before her eyes hardened at Storm and she sent energy reeling from her, knocking the woman to the ground and ashing some of her clothing in the process. She took to the air, the energy of the power she used to do so destroying what it touched beneath her.
Posted by Wanda Maximoff on Jun 8, 2007, 7:14pm
The green-haired woman was distracted by Storm, now was her chance. Shooting another hex bolt, she ripped the same tree out of the ground, forcing it to crash down where the evil woman stood.
Posted by Storm on Jun 8, 2007, 7:16pm
On the ground, Storm tried to recover from the blast and felt herself grow dizzy as she stared in shock at Typhoid, no doubt because of Vertigo. "She's turned!" she yelled to the general viscinity, before getting up once more, unsteadlily.

She only could do two another beat with her wings. They were over the trees and she fall asleep and let the woman fell down. It was the second time, that she fell down.

Yes, she snapped to him. Controlling her voice, making her say things she didn't mean, it scared her. The fact that she was a lifeless puppet at the moment scared her.
When she got out of this...he wasn't going to live to see the next day.

"Handle her, Storm!" She said urgently, meaning the girl with black eyes, sending out a malicious green energy. "I'm trying to take out the head."
Focusing back on Essex, she threw a hex bolt...followed by another in rapid succession. He wasn't going to leave this place, she would make sure of that.
Posted by Typhoid Mary on Jun 8, 2007, 7:20pm
Ty floated to a space above the rapidly ashing trees. She wasn't to fight anyone, those hadn't been her instructions. They had been to take down whatever possible- the grounds, the Mansion, and ultimately Xavier himself. Stilling herself in the air, she began to generate massive energy, using her teke to make herself so bright she resembled a star.

::Xavier had wheeled to the edge of the battlefield, trying to find an angle best to stop Essex. He had moved beyond anger to a new plateau of emotions, when the sinister man forced Raven to say such lies.
He turned his head, hearing Ororo's cry. Turned, Typhoid? Watching as Typhoid began to attack the X-Men, he sighed softly. The battle was far from over.::
