Daniel had been too slow creating the grating to ward off the current, the mesh had protected him from the blast of the mutant's right hand but, illuminated by its own crackling energy the blast of the mutant's left had thrown Kristen to the ground. Perhaps he had diverted at least some of the current however for when her voice called out it was still strong though as shaky as his own. He scrambled to his knees, raching for her as she called out in reply, a bolt of static shooting up his arm with an unpleasant stabbing sensation when her hand found his in the dark. The pain brought him back to his knees as he tried to push himself up, a sharp cry of pain tearing from him before he could grit his teeth against it.
Behind them he could hear the new mutant, Megawatt the guard had called him, snarl as he heard their voices, the brilliance of his blast meaning that the light that filtered in from the grates and tunnels beyond this one did little to allow them to see anything but afterimages seared into their eyes. Then there was new light, the same prickling sensation as the air became saturated with charged particles and lightning raced along Megatwatt's arms, casting his musclebound body and the angry, determined set of his dark features in stark relief. He tried to calculate how long it would be before the insane amounts of power needed for such a display blasted his grating apart like a inadequate fuse but panic surged in him and whirled his thoughts away. He forced himself to stand, feet slipping in the dirt and dust of ages that made the dark tunnel treacherous, pulling desperately at Kristen's hand to bring her to her feet, to stand, to flee away from this nightmare world into which he had thrust himself tonight.
Then suddenly there was a new voice in the darkness, the air beyond the grate shimmering for a moment before it suddenly solidified around Megawatt, the sounds of the crackling current gathering in his arms dimming as it rushed inward, a half globe imprisoning him, sealing him against the floor. A new voice joined them, Daniel whirling to see a new figure silhouetted in the tunnel mouth behind them, the dim light that filtered in from behind them doing little to illuminate her.
"Are you okay?" She called, peering in at them. A part of Daniel wanted to laugh at the absurdity of the question. Was he okay? Someone had just tried to kill him, his clothes were torn from his stumbling falls in this tunnel, he was bruised, coated with dust and grime, panicked to the verge of unthinkingness and the adrenal dump he had just recieved was making him feel like his heart was about to explode. His stomach twisted, he felt like he wanted to throw up.
"I think so." The voice was Kristen's and he glanced down to see her peering up at the newcomer, her features turning down into a thoughtful look for a moment. Then a crash from Megawatt sent his eyes back to him, lightning hissing and crackling along the inside of the forcefield.
"Will that hold him?" He called, his voice shaky, involuntarily taking a step back as the huge man snarled and raged within his cage.

Karra
Morlock Tunnels
"You guys okay?" Karra asked the group, as she approached them. Right now, with her sight she could see them all clearly.
"I think so." The young woman called through the darkness. The man beside her looked ok. Karra wasnt too sure about their guide, however. And this other guy...good grief, he was just anger all over. Sounded like someone BB should meet.
"Will that hold him?" the young man called out to Karra, his voice shaky, as he took a step back.
Karra replied instantly, "Hopefully, you wont be here to find out.. she muttered as gave her attentions towards the one with bad social graces.
If they were as close to the Morlocks territory as she believed they were, someone would surely come to investigate all the noise and light show. Hopefully... Karra tapped her head. How silly of her.
'Um...Professor. Could you let the Morlicks know they got something going on in one of their tunnels...' she thought to him, while she kept an eye on this guy with all the sparks. She thought of her friend then, and hoped that Lera would NEVER turn into something like this guy.

Kristin Matthews (Phantom) - Morlock Tunnels
"Will that hold him?" the young man called out to Karra, his voice shaky, as he took a step back.
Karra replied instantly, "Hopefully, you wont be here to find out." she muttered as she gave her attentions towards the one with bad social graces.
Looking up the young woman noticed the shield of protection and sighed with relief, her nerves calming ever so slightly, yet her muscles ached and shook within her. Slowly Kristin pressed her hands against the ground and lifted herself up, holding her lower back as she did so. She brushed off her jeans which had now sprung a small hole in the knee.
Great. She thought as her brandy eyes registered the small abrasion that her knee had taken on. Her palms burned with the sweat that now beaded upon her grimy hands, she knew she had skinned them when she fell. Kristin pressed her palms against her stomach's sides suppressing the burning sensation.
Glancing back she caught Daniel's glance and winced slightly then back at Karra, curiosity got the better of her and she spoke, "What now?" she asked, attempting to control the unevenness in her voice.

Kristin, Daniel & Karra
Morlock Tunnels, near overpass
Karra arrived jus in time to prevent things from getting out of hand. Megawatt was taken completely by surprise as he prepared another shocking volley. Karra's force field enveloped him completely and his electrical shower was trapped inside the energy barrier karra had erected along with Megawatt himself. The electrokinetic mutant raged inside of his confinement, but to no avail.
"You guy's ok?" Karra asked concerned.
After what seemed like a long moment of silence, Kristin was the first to give an answer. "I think so." she said, her tone slightly uncertain as she was unable to make out the speaker in the darkness. The only illumination was coming from Megawatt's attempts at breaching Karra's energy prison.
"Will that hold him?" Daniel chimed in, real concern evident in his tone of voice, and with good reason.
Karra replied instantly, "Hopefully, you wont be here to find out."
Althought not a telepath, Karra also thought 'loud' enough for Professor Xavier to pick up the message she was sending him. Erik had instructed his students that distance had little to no real bearing on the powers of the mind, o if they called out to him, no matter how far they were, he would be able to hear them. Of course, that small 'fact' was true for telepaths with the supreme mental powers like that of Erik Xavier.
"What now?" Kristin asked, attempting to control the unevenness in her voice.
And as if in answer to her question, Dash seemed to have reappeared. There was an audible click, then a rod he was holding began to glow, bringing a dim illumination to their area.
"Help is on the way." he said evenly. Casually, he put the glow rod on a holder in the wall. By it's light, they could see that his clothes were somewaht singed, but he appeared otherwise unhurt. Dash galred at Megawatt, who was still trying to escape his prison as he spouted foul explatives and promises of pain. Then the speedster looked about as if trying to see something, but having little luck in finding it.
"Strange...these guys seldom travel alone." he commented to himself.
At that moment, the light grew slightly brighter in their area. "We're here!" a female voice shouted with some urgency not too far away. Dash turned to see a long haired female shrouded in pulsing light sprinting in their direction. Luxxa! Dash called out, relief clearly heard in his voice. Next to her a figure familiar to Karra flew silently and with a brooding expression. He was well muscled and wore a black and blue costume. His face would have been said to be handsome, if it were not for that dark scowl he wore. Godshade only nodded towards Karra as he landed near her, while Luxxa ran up to dash and gave him a friendly hugh.
"I'm glad you're ok!" she said to her friend, then looked at the others. "Is anyone hurt?" she asked.
"We're Ok." Dash answered, as he looked at the muscled man suspiciously.
"Xavier sent me." Godshade answered off handedly as he looked towards Megawatt.
"My, my my, is this not a fun gathering?" a voice came from beyond the lit area. Luxxa immediately illuminated the whole area, revealing the speaker. Another well muscled man with a shirtless and heavily tatooed upper body walked towards them, hands clapping. He had short spikey dark hair and wore a pair of goggles. By the looks of it it helped him see in the dark. Luxxa's illumination caused him to lift the goggles up.
"Krusher Creel.....junior." Luxxa voiced with venomous distaste.
"Just "Krusher" will do sweatness." The man retorted with a smirk.
Godshade took a step forward. Krusher tilted his head and smiled as he casually ran a hand over the stone and metal surrounding them. In a span of a hearbeat, his body had taken the likeness of the stonework. When he smiled, his teeth were metallic. Godshade snorted as he casually took a large boulder in his hands and pulverized it to dust.
Dash whistled.
"Let me the #@%!! outta here!" Megawatt demanded.
No one responded.
Black smoke fell from above and next to Krusher, then formed into the shape of a darkskined man in black. He carried a very large Katana sword strapped to his back.
"I'd do as he suggests..." the new arrival said darkly, then looked up and flashed his bloodhot eyes and fanged teeth. Now it was Dash' turn to speak with distaste.
"Nodachi. You filthy..."
"Not in the mood..." The dark man cut him off as he reached for his oversized katana.
There was a moment of silene that was broken by running footsteps.
"Now what?" Krusher blurted out in annoyance.
A figure wearing a black leather trenchcoat came running out of the darkness with two guns in hand. He wore a hi-tech looking visor and he was also of dark complexion.
"...told you folks to slow the frak down...but....ya'll don't listen...."
Bad Boy arrived with guns drawn and in three seconds did catch his breath.
"So which one of ya'll mofo's wanna do a tap dance, case I got your tune right here."
"He's with us." Godhshade interrupted, speaking up in his no-nonsense tone. "You're down one man. So it's Five on Two. You feeling lucky?"
Nodachi snorted. "You didn't even count the pups." he said with a sneer.
"Xavier's, eh? hmph! Like I said. Not in the mood, otherwise the odds are just fine by me." Nodachi mockingly flashed his fangs again, then his red eyes appraised the group gathered. Krusher cracked his neck. "We take our man. We go our separate ways. Nothing to see here."
Nodachi sheated his large sword, then waited for someone else to make the next move.
*************************
Not so far away, about twelve meters to be exact, Devil Dog watched silently from a crouching position. He was just a damn good tracker and an excellent guide. He could easily defend himself against any human, even armed ones. But he could tell some of the mutants gathered were heavy hitters. Megawatt, Krusher Creel and even Nodachi. Yeah, he knew them by face and reputation. One used to be a friend and th eother a good acquaintance. That was until they joined up with that traitor Shikar.
Shortly after Karra flew off, Devil Dog had tried to convince Nat to stay by him and follow, he said they'd only take a look from a safe distance. That was thirteen meters ago. Devil Dog had gone ahead, thoughhe was not certain if nat followed. He figured she would, thinking she would not want to be left alone. Even so, he kept alert as ti her whereabouts. He'd never lost a charge before and he wasn't planning to start now. He didn't perceive any danger from around or behind them, so he knew that they were relatively safe.
"Are you seeing all this?" he whispered into the darkness only half-turning his head but still looking at the 'action'. Inwardly, he wondered if there was going to be a turf war.

Buzz
London, Alleyway
-The agency was foolish to send one man. Me fleeing the scene of my last crime, was the termination of my contract to Japan. What is it you want?-
<"I am no goverment agent.">The black clad shinobi responded with certainty. The man bowed and slowly, from underneath his vestments, produced a parchement case to Buzz. At the center of it, a silver seal was emblazoned. It was that of the setting japanese sun with two crisscrossed katanas underneath. On the right end, there was a small thumbsized reader. Buzz could guess that the case would only open for the person it was intended to once the thumb print mach was made.
The shinobi remained bowed and waited.

Sage Team
Xavier Mansion
Shadowspite melded into the shadows in a corner and was gone. Sage nodded in satifaction. A simple turn of the head revealed that Hawk and Naomi were underway to the control room. " Six, Ancient One, please inform me as soon as you arrive at the communication's center." she requested of Eagle's Breath and Chandler. Then with a wave of a hand, she bid Wind Weapon to follow.
The trip to the third sub-level had been quiet and uneventful, as it was expected to be. The lift doors opened and Sage and Wind Weapon walked into a sparce area. Although it was expansive, there wasn't much other a set of metallic double doors no more than fifteen meters away. A large stepping disc was infront of the door, and a disc of equal size was on the ceiling directly above it. "Wait here." Sage said to Wind Weapon and casually walked upon it. Both discs began to pulse faintly as soon as she stepped on.
"Sage." she said, uttering her name.
Suddely Sage was engulfed in a tube of iridescent light. The displayed only lasted a few seconds. [Identity Confirmed. You are cleared to proceed.] Jocasta's voice was heard saying. Sage motioned for Wind Weapon to do the same and the process was repeated. A wave of a hand later and the double doors opened to a gigantic spherical room with a single long walkway jutting out from the double doors then ending in the middle, where it connected to a circular plaform. There was a raised dais upon the platform where dim lights lazily flashed on and off in a strange sequence.
"Do nothing. Touch nothing." Sage instructed with little humor. She did not bother to look back for a response as she began to walk towards the circular platform. As they walked on, lights lit up on the walkway, giving twalker a vauge sensation that they were on some sort of runway. As they near the platform, lights slowly came on. The platform was ample in size as it was at least 20 meters wide. Sage stepped onto the dais, where a shinning round metallic helmet rested. Without hesitation, she picked it up and placed it her head. Sage closed her eyes and it almost looked as if she had fallen asleep or went into a trance.
For a moment, nothing happened. The vastness of the chamber remained dark. Upon the dais console, lights began to flash faster and faster as some stayed on and changed colors. The vast spherical chamber began to glow, dimly at first, but then it glow grew in intensity and became a field of white, which eventually shrunk into a point of light. Thew room chamber dimmed again, but this time, it looked like they were surroundd by stars.
"The bright points of lights you see represent mutants around our planet. The amber colour dots..." Sage made these dots more apparent now. "...Are humans, or more precisely those who are not mutants."
Sage's voice sounded oddly detached, but it still sounded very much like her.
"This is but one of the many functions Cerebro is capable of. Professor Xavier and Professor N'dare have vastly upgraded the system. It is quite literally a wonderous work of engineering."
The stars before them shimmered, then began to move. The image plunged earth-ward, and suddenly they were above New York City. Another burst of movement and the image had dropped from the city skylines into the cities underground. Faster and faster they moved through metal structures and railways until finally, they came to a familiar gathering. On the screen, they saw the familiar form of a man speaking to a young lady with white hair. The man turned and smiled at them. Though he did not speak, his voice was heard through out the chamber, or at least that's what it sounded like.
"Hello Sage, I see your mission was a success?"
"Yes, professor. I'm still waitig to hear from Kincaid and his team. In the meantime, I shall proceed as planned."
"Very well. Best of Luck."
"Thank you, Erik."
Without further word, the image infront of them vanished as the focus began to move once more.

Oni
World of Warcraft. Darnasus, Questers secret tavern.
The battle was engaged. The entire tavern erupted in chaotic melee, as swords, daggers, hammers and spells starting swinging and flying everywhich way possible. Even Oni joined the fray as she sent out several long shafts of ghostly essence, which in truth were a host hack attack virus in the form of silver tipped arrows.
Her aim was true, however only one warrior was affected, as two were able to resist, thanks to the status resistances the mage had casted on them before hand. The rogues performed uncanny dodges an the mage's shield held fast against the attack. The lone warrior affected screamed in a high pitched gurggle as his form struggled to stay together before it exploded in a shower of grey colored pixels.
Oakenfolk rushed the mage, who would logically have the lowest value armor class. His glowing hammer was held high as he thundered forth, but was stopped dead in his tracks by a well place ice spell. In the next instant, the dwarf shatter into countless icy pieces after being struck by a warriors mighty sword.
"Okenfolk! NOOOO!!" yelled female night elf mage as she cast a fire spell at her blood elf counter part. The blood elf's defenses held while she summoned a shadow fiend, which once again brought them to superior numbers.
"Everyone, CLOAK NOW! we gotta get outta here. They are elites! and they came ready for us! GO! Go! Go!"
As Aftermath faded from view, he gave Oni a firm nod of the head. In a private channel, he managed to whisper [Control+Alt+Escape].
And then, the Night Elves were gone.

Lazer & Nightfall
New York City, Lower East Side
Nightfall's memories youthful memories had not betrayed him. The Con Edison Power Plant on Manhattan's Lower East Side was sizable and the company owened many buildings in the surrounding area. It was hardly a commercial strip, though many residences were around. The FDR Highway and the East River where close by as was the walkway to the South Street Seaport. But Nightfall was not focusing on these at the moment.
Emerging upon the room of his memory, Nightfall immediately noticed that it was no longer an archival room, but a maintenance storage area, and a pretty large one at that. It didn't look like it was used very often, as the objects stored here looked outdated and had been left here to be put out of the way more than anything else.
This place could serve as a temporary safe house. They'd just have to take care with their coming and going. This was clearly not Fort Knox, but security wa sstill security.
Over by Lazer, Spider Girl slept soundly and was looking a whole lot better and healthier than she did less than an hour ago.

Shifter
Genosha, Underground Dome, Battle Arena
As the crowd cheered him on and Shifter basked in his moment of triumph, the bodacious Jazz came back out with the winner's coat and belt, which she dutifuly helped Shifter don. With that done, she kissed the new winner fully, then waved and smiled for the cameras. The crowd went wild, and Jazz to that as a cue to usher Shifterto the winner's seat.
"You did well for yourself." The beautiful hostess told him as they walked back inside. 3,000 credits have been forwarded to your account. Jazz graced him with a smile as the came around to the winners box.
"I'm to keep you company for the rest of the matches as a symbol of your victory. I hope you don't mind."
The security team let them through the VIP area and in after a left and right turns, they were both in the Winner's balcony. The camera was once again on them and folks cheered some even screamed his name and asked for his autograph.
It was pretty clear that Shifter was the newest sensation, an instant sensation even. The trick to keeping such a moment on-going was to keep on winning. Something that obviously could not go on indefinitely.
["AND NOW LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! THE DEMONSTRATION BOUT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!!!"]
The excitement in the announcer's voice galvanized the crowd as the collective sound of their cheering voices rose around the battle arena. There was much hootin' and hollerin' even as the announcer continued to speak.
["TONITE, WE HAVE THE FORTUNE OF SEEING AN ARENA FAVORITE TWICE IN ONE EVENING. YOU KNOW WHO SHE IS, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN....AND NOW, I GIVE YOU, THE ONE AND ONLY.....MIGHTY ESMERAL-DA! BOO-YA!"]
The ensuing roar of voices was down right deafening as Esmeralda walked out once again into the arena. She didn't even bother looking at the crowd as she still wore the frown she'd had earlier. Some would say that she'd permamently knotted her brow in that position, but regardless, the crowd loved it all. They screamed and even began chanting her name.
["HER OPPONENT....EXCUSE ME, OPPONENTS FOR TONIGHTS DEMO EVENT, ARE NONE-OTHER THAN.......RAZOR ANGEL AND ATOMIC REAP-ER!!!"]
Thunderous stomping and clapping followed. It thrummed through the battle dome. The cameras focused on the pair of mutants as they entered through the other side of the arena. Neither of the two looked at the cameras. They simply looked quite unhappy about the whole affair, which was unusal, especially for Razor Angel, who never missed a chance to ham-it-up for the cameras, but the crowd was apparently to amped to notice.
[" AND NOW...LET'S GET READY TO RUMMMBLEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"]
The crowd lost their mind as they saw Esmeralda immediately dash into the arena with such determination, that she left a cloud of smoke behind her. Razor Angel on the other hand, immediatey took to thi sky. Atomic Reaper ignited his Scythe, which turned incandescent white with flames, and began to move in a flanking position.
Three arena favourites were about to do Battle Royal, and eah single spectator expected it to be a match to remember. No Doubt, Shifter probably won't forget it anyime soon.

Elana
Xavier Camp, Morlock Tunnels
Elana sat brooding on her chair. How could Jack have left her the way he did? Why did everythig tend to be so complicated?
As Elana kept the compnay of her own thoughts, two figures came to stand next to her, one at either side.
"Hello..." the asian boy floating on her right said with a shy smile.
"Wassap?" said the older boy standing to her left.
Wei-Chen fixed his glasses with one hand, then offered her a plate filled with oatmeal cookies. He looked to be entering that awkward age of 13.
The boy t her left, Surge, seemed to be about her age. He was of tan skin color, with short curly dark hair and green eyes. His big smile was full of charm and confidence as he offered her a glass of milk.
"Compliments of Iori." Surge said coolly, pointing with his other hand towards Iori, who was stitting down on a cot, cross-legged and simingly in mediation. He managed a friendly wave, even thoughhis eyes were closed.
Both Wei-Chen and Surge were hurt during an attack in the mansion. Frostbite had been possessed and had attacked them, encasing them both in solid ice, but thank's to Professor N'dare, Lazer and the medical team, they managed a full recovery.
"Iori said not to worry, your brother will be back. Sage will see to that. Right Surge?"
"You got that right, Wei-Chen."
Both moved their items closer to her almost simultaneously that for a second it looked like a comedy routine.
"Eat-up. You'll feel better." Surge said, offering a kind and sympathetic smile.

Mc Taggert Team
Dublin, Ireland
The Lab
Alastor got right to work on the armour, deciding that defense was more important than offense. Setting the Pulse Rifle aside, the gunsmith chose to begin his study with molecular scan. Setting the scanner a the highest sensitivity, Alastor began.
As he the scanning array passed over the length of the prostrated armor, the computer began to speak.
['Item focus: A-01, molecular composition assessment; preliminary finding: Main concentration; Molcularly compressed Chobham composite ceramic variant, secondary concentration; Vibranium-steel alloy underlay, third concerntartion; unidentifiable material weave.']
Dr. Mc Taggert looked up suddenly from his work station and looked back towards Alastor. He chuckled from being a bit embarrassed. "Sorry about that. I have the computer set to voice response. You can either use the head-set on the side, or have your results appear on the screen, that way we don't drive each other crazy."
His eyebrow raised as if playing back what he'd just heard, but then a beeping sound drew his attention back to his terminal.

Back in the Communications Room, John began his attempt to contact The Academy.
["This is the 'Turbo Charge' to 'Silver Lady' can you read me. I repeat, This is Turbo Charge to Silver Lady, can you read me. over?"]
The sound of ambient interference came over the speakers, which made John frown. "I'll try it one more time before I start getting paranoid." He declared while looking at the comm-system. After checking the frequency and connections one more time, John took a deep breath and attempted to make contact one more time.
Erin & Naloth were having an uneventful watch thus far. All seemed quiet and still, but perhaps it was just the quiet before the storm. Hop
Hopefully not.

Alastor nodded to McTaggart, "Thanks" he then picked up the headset and placed it on his ear, and decided on a mix of both settings. The readouts would appear on the screen and be stated to him on the headset. After finishing his setting adjustments he went back to work, absentmindedly talking to himself. "Hmmm... Chobham Composite Armour is Tank grade armor..." He paused as he tried to remember, "The M1 Abrams used Chobham Composite... composed of." He paused again, "Boron carbide, silicon carbide, aluminium oxide, aluminium nitride, titanium boride and Syndie." He turned and looked at McTaggart and and N'dare before they could look at him strange. "I am a Weapons buff... All sorts of weapons."
He turned back to the Console, "Vibranium was used to make Captain America's Shield..." He shook his head, "That makes this armor tough... But if i remember right it doesn't have any properties that would protect it from the energy field." He refocused the molecular scan onto just the third concentration. "Computer, are there any properties of the third unidentifiable concentration that corilate with any other known material or composite? If so, please list them on the screen."

London Alleys
Buzz took the package gingerly. The man didn’t move. Was the case a bomb, the man should have high-tailed it. Perhaps an EMP? Buzz’s suit would be useless to defend him if it was. Not to mention, going through an EMP in the suit he wore was painful. Buzz had to admit, however, that he was curious and although it was what killed the cat, he prepared himself.
After a prompt from Buzz, the skin around his thumb gave way. He was met with an unfamiliar breeze as he lowered his hand to the case. He stopped just above the reader and glanced up. The man was still bowed and Buzz clenched his teeth. His finger lowered. It lay gently on the gel-like pad of the reader.

IC: Nat Tavoris
Morlock Tunnels
Nat was only too happy to follow Devil Dog and trailed behind the mutant as he made his way down the tunnels, trying to walk as silently as he did. Before long they had came to the source of the strange flashes -
Or at least, what Nat presumed to be the source: a surprising number of mutants in varying states of aggression. She recognised Karra standing next to a guy in a glowing cage - had she done that too? - two more slightly beat-up people on the ground, and about five others glaring at each other. None of them were familiar, but she knew trouble when she saw it. Especially trouble on a hair-trigger like those were.
Then another guy in a trenchcoat materialized out of the darkness, two guns already drawn. Well, make that six. Nat was having no trouble hearing what they were saying; they weren't keeping their voices down and noise carried through the tunnels just fine. Not that she had any idea who those two were, only that they were on the same side as the caged guy. It certainly seemed like the situation could devolve into an all-out fight in a second.
Devil Dog came to a crouch about a dozen metres away from the scene of the confrontation. "Are you seeing all this?" he whispered in the darkness, half-turning his head in Nat's direction.
Nat nodded, then realized he probably wouldn't have seen. "Yeah," she breathed back. "Who are those guys?"

"Yes, my fair lady!" he said with an exagerative bow before turning to lead the way as he could 'see' where they were headed to although he decided to make it a walk just to be more of a comfort to Six.
"You know it has often been my salvation to see 'around' corners, I once had a man say that wouldn't future sight be better since you would not only know they were there but what and how they would react? I replied that I...that I..."Well this was embarrising, or at least as an ancient could be embarrased. It felt as if he knew this story like the back of his hand but as soon as he was past the start and started to remember more then just the words of the situation a wall fell, he couldn't recall another thing about it hardly even that which he had already said.
"Well that's not important, I must have begun to ramble. How about we just walk queitly or race to the communcations room."
After getting an okay out of his traveling companion they headed off and soon arrived in the communications room. Walking around once to get the lay of the place he nodded staring at the equipment. "Jocasta if you wouldn't mind walking us through this simultaniously we can get this up and running. Also if you wouldn't mind dear, could you inform that aptly named Sage of the valley that we are ready?"

IC: Kristin Matthews (Phantom) - Morlock Tunnels
As if in answer to her question, Dash seemed to have reappeared. There was an audible click, then a rod he was holding began to glow, bringing a dim illumination to their area. Kristin squinted her eyes readjusting to the newly introduced light.
"Help is on the way." Dash said evenly. Casually, he put the glow rod on a holder in the wall. By it's light, they could see that his clothes were somewhat singed, but he appeared otherwise unhurt. Dash glared at Megawatt, who was still trying to escape his prison as he spouted foul expletives and promises of pain. Kristin blushed at the words Megawatt was using, to her they were enough to make anyone turn crimson in the cheeks. She glanced around trying to calm herself down still from the attack that they had received.
"Strange...these guys seldom travel alone." he, Dash, commented to himself.
At that moment, the light grew slightly brighter in their area. "We're here!" a female voice shouted with some urgency not too far away. Kristin's eyes adjusted once again, hoping that she would not get a headache from all the change in the lights. She turned following Dash's gaze to see a long haired female shrouded in pulsing light sprinting in their direction.
Next to her a figure flew silently and with a brooding expression. He was well muscled and wore a black and blue costume. His face would have been said to be handsome, if it were not for that dark scowl he wore.Kristin felt as if she should glare back at the handsome man, yet she refrained as she let his hard expression pass. It happened so fast, yet Luxxa ran up to Dash and gave him a hug.
"I'm glad you're ok!"/b] The woman said to her friend, then looked at the others. [b]"Is anyone hurt?" she asked.
Before she had a chance to answer with just minor cuts and bruises, "We're Ok." came from Dash, answering for them, as he looked at the muscled man suspiciously.
"Xavier sent me." The scowling man answered off handedly as he looked towards Megawatt.
"My, my my, is this not a fun gathering?" a voice came from beyond the lit area. Luxxa immediately illuminated the whole area, revealing the speaker. Another well muscled man with a shirtless and heavily tattooed upper body walked towards them, hands clapping. He had short spikey dark hair and wore a pair of goggles. By the looks of it it helped him see in the dark. Luxxa's illumination caused him to lift the goggles up.
"Krusher Creel.....junior." Luxxa voiced with venomous distaste that Kristin automatically picked up on.
"Just "Krusher" will do sweetness." The man retorted with a smirk that Kristin disliked greatly.
Kristin watched the two men interact obviously having known each other previously and they obviously disliked each other greatly. Dash whistled and Kristin's attention was turned to their attacker.
"Let me the #@%!! outta here!" Megawatt demanded.
No one responded.
Black smoke fell from above and next to Krusher, then formed into the shape of a darkskined man in black. He carried a very large Katana sword strapped to his back. "I'd do as he suggests..." the new arrival said darkly, then looked up and flashed his bloodshot eyes and fanged teeth. Now it was Dash's turn to speak with distaste.
Now, Kristin was getting fearful again and absentmindedly inched towards Daniel as Dash hissed, "Nodachi. You filthy..."
"Not in the mood..." The dark man cut him off as he reached for his over-sized Katana.
There was a moment of silence that was broken by running footsteps and Kristin's head turned quickly.
"Now what?" Krusher blurted out in annoyance, Kristin was now thoroughly confused.
A figure wearing a black leather trench coat came running out of the darkness with two guns in hand. He wore a hi-tech looking visor and he was also of dark complexion.
"...told you folks to slow the frak down...but....ya'll don't listen...."
Kristin chuckled as the newcomer arrived with guns drawn and in three seconds did catch his breath.
"So which one of ya'll mofo's wanna do a tap dance, case I got your tune right here."
"He's with us." Godhshade interrupted, speaking up in his no-nonsense tone. "You're down one man. So it's Five on Two. You feeling lucky?"
Nodachi snorted. "You didn't even count the pups." he said with a sneer. Kristin's eyebrow quipped as she folded her arms across her chest obviously not in the mood to hear him jab at the new people.
"Xavier's, eh? hmph! Like I said. Not in the mood, otherwise the odds are just fine by me." Nodachi mockingly flashed his fangs again, then his red eyes appraised the group gathered. Krusher cracked his neck. "We take our man. We go our separate ways. Nothing to see here."
Nodachi sheathed his large sword, then waited for someone else to make the next move. Kristin turned her gaze to Karra wonder what she was going to do next, she opened her mouth to speak yet shut it then turned and looked at Daniel a worried look playing across her usually calm face.

Karra
Morlock Tunnels, near overpass
Karra was very glad to see that guy who was leading the other two was ok. He was holding an glowrod, as he stared at Megawatt. "What now?" Kristin asked, attempting to control the unevenness in her voice.
"Help is on the way." Dash said evenly. Casually, he put the glow rod on a holder in the wall. Loudmouth was spouting words that would make BB grin. Karra ignored him, especially when she heard Dash's next comment.
"Strange...these guys seldom travel alone."
At that moment, the light grew slightly brighter in their area. "We're here!" a female voice shouted with some urgency not too far away. Dash turned to see a long haired female shrouded in pulsing light sprinting in their direction. "Luxxa!" Dash called out, relief clearly heard in his voice. Next to her a figure familiar to Karra flew silently and with a brooding expression. Karra gave a nod to Godshade who also nodded towards her as he landed near her, while Luxxa ran up to dash and gave him a friendly hug.
"I'm glad you're ok!" she said to her friend, then looked at the others. "Is anyone hurt?" she asked. "We're Ok." Dash answered, as he looked at the muscled man suspiciously. "Xavier sent me." Godshade answered off handedly as he looked towards Megawatt.
"My, my my, is this not a fun gathering?" Another muscle man, spike hair, and goggles. And from the reactions of the others, obviously NOT a friend.
"Krusher Creel.....junior." Luxxa voiced with venomous distaste. "Just "Krusher" will do sweetness." The man retorted with a smirk. Oh lord, she was in Hormone Heck. 'Could the testosterone get any thicker around here?' she wondered
Godshade took a step forward. Krusher tilted his head and smiled as he casually ran a hand over the stone and metal surrounding them. In a span of a hearbeat, his body had taken the likeness of the stonework. When he smiled, his teeth were metallic. Godshade snorted as he casually took a large boulder in his hands and pulverized it to dust. Dash whistled.
"Let me the #@%!! outta here!" Megawatt demanded. 'Aparently, it can'. Karra mused to herself.
No one responded. Black smoke fell from above and next to Krusher, then formed into the shape of a darkskined man in black. He carried a very large Katana sword strapped to his back. Oh, Nice trick indeed.
"I'd do as he suggests..." the new arrival said darkly, then looked up and flashed his bloodhot eyes and fanged teeth. Now it was Dash' turn to speak with distaste. "Nodachi." Another not a friend. Well this was getting ugly. There was a moment of silence that was broken by running footsteps. "Now what?" Krusher blurted out in annoyance. A figure wearing a black leather trenchcoat came running out of the darkness with two guns in hand. He wore a hi-tech looking visor and he was also of dark complexion. "...told you folks to slow the frak down...but....ya'll don't listen...." Bad Boy arrived with guns drawn and in three seconds did catch his breath. "So which one of ya'll mofo's wanna do a tap dance, case I got your tune right here."
Karra withheld the groan, as she flash him a quick smile. 'FULL HOUSE! We HAVE OURSELVES A WINNER!' she thought to herself now.
They traded words again, then big and ugly number 3 spoke up. "Xavier's, eh? hmph! Like I said. Not in the mood, otherwise the odds are just fine by me." Nodachi mockingly flashed his fangs again, then his red eyes appraised the group gathered. Krusher cracked his neck. "We take our man. We go our separate ways. Nothing to see here." Nodachi sheated his large sword, then waited for someone else to make the next move.
Before any other bad insults could be traded, Karra looked to Dash and the others she had helped. "Go ahead and take the others back. They did take a good jolt." She gestured towards the young man and girl, who had taken a hit from Megawatt. They probably needed a bit of help anyway. She gave a smile and wink. "And when you get accross the bridge.. Mr. Sunshine here should be able to go, and we can all go on our merry way..."
Of course, Karra version of letting him go..might be a tad diffrent than what they had in mind. But she wanted to get the others back on safe ground first.

Jata Marxx (RavenHawk)
Grand Central Station, Booth T-A27655
After arriving in Grand Central Station after a bit of a walk in the crowded city streets, Jaya finally made it. The GRand Central Station was even more crowded than the streets. Not a surprise given it's importance and location. What was new at the station was the presence of MCU officers posted in key locations, which Jaya avoided successfully thus far.
Moments later, she found the booth. It seemed deserted. A large sign was placed on the window where an booth attendant would usually be seen. Upon closer inspection, the words could be seen.
It read:
CLOSED FOR REPAIRS
oddly enough, the card swiping machine seemed to be on. Was it on a second ago? or did it just ....
There was no way for Jaya to tell if the card reader had been on a moment ago. The message on the face of the reader scrolled by in bright blue colors.
Please insert card...
The noisy area seemed to grow still around Jaya as the words seemed to blink at her.
She turned her head from side to side to see if anyone was watching her. So far so good. The MCU Officers were not focused on her. This gave Jaya more ample time to insert her card in without notice. She was still nervous, but concentrated on the task at hand. There was some doubt in her mind on inserting the card.
What if this is a trap.. The MCU maybe pretending to not notice, but as soon as someone walks up to the card reader they start to ambush.
She shook her head to get the negative thoughts out of her mind. The last thing she needed was to allow negative thoughts to distract her. She took a deep breath then calmly walked to the booth. Well it was now or never and Jaya didn't want to waste any more time than she already had.

OOC: Due to RL issues, I will be handing over my characters (Jack & Elana) to greyjedi125 until I return on February 26th. But this time it's a good RL. 
IC JACK "HAWK" WARNER:
Mansion...
"I love it when a plan comes together," Jack said with a grin. The entrance to the mansion had gone off without a hitch.
"Ok, team. we need to get to work A.S.A.P.!"
Jack took a look around the immediate premises while Eagle's Breath and Sage argued. The place looked clean on a basic look-over. The group had entered in unnoticed.
Once the two had finished their spat, Sage turned from Eagle's Breath to the rest of the team, and began making assignments.
"Hawk and Naomi, you two got security detail in the control room. Let's keep an eye on our unwanted guests shall we?"
Jack turned to the one called Naomi, and motioned for her to follow.
The trip to the control room was rather uneventful. Jack didn't say much, and neither did Naomi. The long, abandoned corridors echoed with their footsteps, and with Jack's mutterings.
"Supply room... Generators...." Finally, his eyes rested on the door he was looking for. "Control Room."
Jack grasped the door knob, and it opened with ease - to the surprise of Jack. Once the two entered the room, Jack shut and locked the door. Jack turned back to Naomi.
"Just in case."
Jack was greeted by a view of all the security monitors in the mansion. The interior of mansion was uneventful, but the exterior was full of activity. Walkers, troops, and the like moved here and there across the grounds.
"Well, I guess we just sit back," Jack plopped down in the nearest chair, "and wait for something interesting to happen."

ELANA WARNER:
Caves...
Everything seemed to be going down the toilet. Jack had left, and there was no guarantee that he was coming back.
As she swam in her thoughts, two figures approached her on either side. She looked up to see two boys approach her on either side.
"Hello..." the Asian boy floating on her right said with a shy smile. She recognized him as Wei-Chen.
"Wassap?" said the older boy standing to her left, whom she belatedly remembered was Surge.
After fixing his glasses, the Asian boy offered her a plate of cookies. At the same time, the boy on her other side offered her a glass of milk. The boy was about her age, with a large grin across his face.
"Compliments of Iori," Surge said coolly, pointing with his other hand towards Iori, who was stitting down on a cot, cross-legged and seemingly in meditation. He managed a friendly wave, even though his eyes were closed.
Elana smiled, and gave a small wave back.
"Iori said not to worry, your brother will be back. Sage will see to that." Wei-Chen looked to Surge. "Right Surge?"
Surge nodded. "You got that right, Wei-Chen."
Elana looked up at them and gave each a smile, as both moved their items closer to her almost simultaneously that for a second it looked like a comedy routine.
"Eat-up. You'll feel better." Surge said, offering a kind and sympathetic smile. Elana laughed quietly, and took the glass and a cookie.
"Thanks, guys," Elana said as she raised the cookie to her mouth. Elana took a bite, and tasted one of the best oatmeal cookies she'd ever had.
"You're cookies are really good," Elana complimented to Iori, although she wasn't sure if he could hear her. She didn't know if Jack would be back in one piece - he had a knack of getting more bumps and bangs than he intended - but these two had picked up her spirits a bit.
After finishing off the cookie and half of the glass of milk, Elana looked up to the two boys.
"So, do you two enjoy this hotel?"

Karra & Nat
Morlock Tunnels, Near Overpass
"We take our man. We go our separate ways. Nothing to see here." Nodachi sheated his large sword, then waited for someone else to make the next move.
Before any other bad insults could be traded, Karra looked to Dash and the others she had helped. "Go ahead and take the others back. They did take a good jolt."
Krusher started chuckling and then burst into laughter. "Oh no, did you hear that?" he said as he turned to speak to his imprisoned comrade. ".... you gave them a good 'jolt'. Maybe that's I'll call ya from now on....Hahaha!" Krusher then acted in mock fear as he said: "Oh ma goodness! run away, here comes JOLT!! HAHAHAHAHA!"
For some odd reason he found this extremely hilarous. Nodachi on the other hand, was not amused and opted just to ignore him.
Karra gestured towards the young man and girl, who had taken a hit from Megawatt. They probably needed a bit of help anyway. She gave a smile and wink. "And when you get across the bridge.. Mr. Sunshine here should be able to go, and we can all go on our merry way..."
Nodachi nodded his agreement.
"Thank you." Dash said to karra, then turned to give a solid nod to Luxxa, before finally turning to Daniel and Kristin. "Ok, then. Let's go. This time we won't stop until we get to your encampment."
And with that, they were off again. Once they were beyond the overpass, they were in safer grounds and a short distance from the Xavier camp. It did not take them long t reach it.
After the trio had disappeared beyond the overpass, Nodachi looked at Karra intently before he spoke with a slow deliberate tone. The dangerous edge in his voice could not be mistaken.
"Release him. Now." He demanded.
Godshade took a step closer and Bad Boy clicked back the hammers on his guns. Nodachi ignored them and kept his eyes on karra.
A relative safe distance away, Devil Dog whispered to Nat as he attempted a quick run down of who's who.
"Well, the guy in the energy cage, assuming that's what it is, is called Megawatt. Supossedly he can generate a million volts of electricity, but that's only if he's really teed-off. I'd say on the average, he generates anywhere between 2,000 and 5,000 volts, and 10,000 when he's upset, like now. But a million...heh! I hear he's only done that twice. Apparently, the first time was to bust outta prison. Anyway, the tatooed hudlum next is the said to be the son of 'The Absorbing Man' himself and Titania. But life was not so sweet for the Creels. Titania got herself caught during a foiled heist and ended up in some super prison. That was when she met Doc Samson who took a shine to her and tried to reform her, idiot fell for the oldest trick in the book. Long story short, Creel came to bust her out and she was pregnant with Doc's baby. I heard when the tot was born it had green hair, so they got rid of it. Go figure."
Devil Dog looked back at this point to see Nat had fallen asleep, she was so quiet.
"Both Creel and Megawatt have criminal records, and Churgen took them in and gave them refuge despite their past, and this is how they repay him. Ingrates. Hmph! The creep with the big blade is Nodachi. Don't know much about him, just that he's a bona fide blood-sucker and all bad news. real old too. Then there's the good guys. The guy zipping around is Dash, our local speedster. Nice kid. The lady casting all the light is Luxxa. She's pretty powerful and one of Churgen's Lieutenants."
Devil Dog grew quiet after the not-so-brief history lesson. Dash ahd left withhis two charges, and now it seemed it was time for quid pro quo.

Jaya Marxx (RavenHawk)
Grand Central Station, Booth T-A27655
Though nervous and anxious all at once, Jaya managed to summon the nerve to swipe her card. Nothing seemed to happen for one second, which probably caused her heart to skip. Then the small screen winked. [Identity comfirmed. One moment please...] read a message as it appeared on the screen. Less than five seconds later, a familiar symbol emerged on the screen, followd by a new message.

Xavier Mansion, communication's room
"Jocasta if you wouldn't mind walking us through this simultaniously we can get this up and running. Also if you wouldn't mind dear, could you inform that aptly named Sage of the valley that we are ready?"
If Jocasta were human, she would have chuckled at Eagle's Breath innovative appellation for Sage, instead, she answered as she was programmed to.
[Affirmative.]
After delivering the message, Jocasta began running a basic tutorial of the communication instruments. The tutorial was simple and straight forward enough, but who could guess how the ancient one would react to such a thing. Six on the other hand, could probably grasp the modern terminology and tech-reference fairly easily.
Before the tutorial was officially over, however, a message was coming through.
["This is the 'Turbo Charge' to 'Silver Lady' can you read me. I repeat, This is Turbo Charge to Silver Lady, can you read me. over?"]
The voice coming over the comm was easy enough to recognize. It was John Storm II, and even though there seemed to be some interference with signal, the message was still coming through with sufficient clarity to be understood.

The Shinobi kept his posture, even as Buzz thumbed the reader. There was a slight vibration as the case folded in on itself, only leaving the signet with quarter inch borders on each side. A parchment was revealed.
Upon opening it, Buzz would read it's content.
Greetings Aiko, we hope this letter finds you well. Pardon the intrusion, for there seemed to be no other way of delivering it to you, so forgive any discomfort it may have caused. We are aware of your plight and will like to help you. It is time that free thinking minds like us join together and use our abilities for good. We, the memebers of the Rising Sun Society, invite you to a 'meeting of minds' for lack of a better phrase.
If you are interested, we will be meeting in three days in Naha in the Ryukyu Islands. The guide we provided can lead you there if you so choose to use his services. We certainly hope that you will join us, or at least hear our offer, so please attend.
We look forward to meeting you. Have a safe journey.
With Honor,

P.S. Exposure to air will cause this parchment to self combust within three minutes.

Karra
Morlock Tunnels, Near Overpass
Karra looked to Dash and the others she had helped. "Go ahead and take the others back. They did take a good jolt."
Krusher started chuckling and then burst into laughter. "Oh no, did you hear that?" he said as he turned to speak to his imprisoned comrade. ".... you gave them a good 'jolt'. Maybe that's I'll call ya from now on....Hahaha!" Krusher then acted in mock fear as he said: "Oh ma goodness! run away, here comes JOLT!! HAHAHAHAHA!"
Karra to her credit, did not roll her eyes. Instead, Karra gestured towards the young man and girl, who had taken a hit from Megawatt. They probably needed a bit of help anyway. She gave a smile and wink. "And when you get across the bridge.. Mr. Sunshine here should be able to go, and we can all go on our merry way..."
Nodachi nodded his agreement. Not that Karra cared if he did or didnt.
"Thank you." Dash said to Karra, then turned to give a solid nod to Luxxa, before finally turning to Daniel and Kristin. "Ok, then. Let's go. This time we won't stop until we get to your encampment." And with that, they were off again. Once they were beyond the overpass, they were in safer grounds and a short distance from the Xavier camp. It did not take them long t reach it. Karra watched as the group dissapeared. After the trio had disappeared beyond the overpass, Karra turned her head to stare at the other group. Nodachi looked at Karra intently before he spoke with a slow deliberate tone. The dangerous edge in his voice could not be mistaken.
"Release him. Now." He demanded.
Godshade took a step closer and Bad Boy clicked back the hammers on his guns. Nodachi ignored them and kept his eyes on Karra. Karra looked at him, the look on her face saying she was NOT impressed. Several retorts came quickly to mind, but she did not voice them. She just looked at him. "Sure." she murmored, as she did several things at once. As she waved her hand, she immediately dropped the shield around Meggadork, but instead of dispelling it totally, she expanded it, so that it took up the the entire entrance between them, and the baddies.
Then with blinding speed, she 'pushed' her shield away from her as fast as she could could, basically scooping them up and out and away from them as fast as she could, giving them no time to counter or fight, or anything else stupid. Like punting a football far away from her, she did her best to send the trio packing as fast as un-humanly possibly.
She then spoke to Godshade and Bad Boy, giving them a smile. "Thanks for the help". She looked over in the direction she left the others. "I guess I better get back with the others, and see if we can make it topside, before anything else happens." Karra shook her head sadly. "Hope the trip back, is not as fun." With a nod to the pair, Karra looked for Pat and Devil Dog, so that she could join them once more, and get back to what it was they were supposed to be doing.
