1Unstoppable

The Juggernaut plowed through the wall of the bank, two large bags in both his hands. "It don't get much better than this," he said to himself. Something hit him in the back of the head.

He turned, and a police officer stood with his gun pointed at Juggernaut. "S-s-stop, or I'll sh-shoot," the officer said, his gun quaking in his hand.

"Give me all you got little man," Juggernaut laughed. He put down the two sacks in his hand and put his hands on the ground. He gripped his massive fingers into the pavement and pulled. The ground lifted, as if a thin rug, and Juggernaut flung it, sending the officer into the air.

A squad of police cars pulled up, as well as a van marked S.W.A.T. "Stop where you are mutant," an officer said through a megaphone.

"And who's gonna stop me, the Panty Brigade," Juggernaut shouted. He grabbed the pavement which he had so easily ripped from the earth, and hurled it at the crowd of vehicles. Officers scrambled out of their cars to safety as the slab of pavement came crashing down, crushing cars beneath it.

"I didn't think so," Juggernaut said picking up his money and continuing his march down the street.

"Professor, what is it," Kevin said, rushing into Xavier's office. The other X-Teens were already present, and all suited up. "It sounded urgent."

"Yes, it is," Xavier said. "I'm afraid Juggernaut is loose."

"Oh no," Rogue said.

"What's Juggernaut," Evan asked.

"He's a very powerful mutant," Xavier answered. "He's impervious to pain, and should he gain any momentum he becomes unstoppable. Normally I would ask the X-Men, but they're off on another assignment."

"Anyone else think we should pass on this one," Skinner said.

"No," Kevin said. He turned to Xavier. "Don't worry Professor, we're on it."

Morph took the X-2, the X-Teens own personal aircraft, into New York City. Juggernaut looked overhead as the jet passed over. "I knew you'd send 'em Charles," he said.

Morph set the X-2 down, and lowered the ramp. Colossus took the lead, followed by Iceman, Rogue, Spyke, Shadowcat, Invisible Man, and finally Morph. "There he is," Rogue said.

Juggernaut approached the team. He dropped the two bags he was carrying and laughed. "This is unbelievable," he said. "I knew Charles wouldn't come here himself. I figured he'd send the X-Men. Instead I get X-Babies!" He laughed to himself again.

"We're a lot tougher than we look, Puff 'N Stuff," Spyke said. From his arm he fired a light brown spike. It soared through the air and struck Juggernaut's helmet.

"Big mistake little boy," Juggernaut said. He ran towards Spyke.

Colossus stepped in front of the path. "Let's see how unstoppable you really are," he said.

Juggernaut smiled, and as he approached Colossus, he swung the back of his hand into Colossus, sending him hurtling into the side of the building.

"Colossus," Shadowcat shouted. She turned at Spyke and hurried to him. She grabbed on to him and the couple phased into the ground. Juggernaut passed by them. He muttered a sound of confusion. Shadowcat phased herself and Spyke by up through the ground.

"Please don't ever do that again," Spyke said.

As Juggernaut looked up, he let out another sound as he saw a mirror image of himself come sprinting towards him. Morph, in the form of Juggernaut, took a swing at him. He caught Juggernaut in the stomach, and pain shot through his hand. It was broken, he was sure of it.

"Looks like I'm a little stronger than you are," Juggernaut said with a smile. He lifted Morph up over his head and hurled him into a parked car. Morph came crashing down onto the hood.

"Morph," Rogue said, coming to his aid.

"I'm fine," Morph said. He took his own form back and crawled off the car. He held his broken hand in his other and looked on at the chaos. Colossus climbed out from the debris that had buried him. Shadowcat stood in the middle of the street, clearly uncertain of what to do. Iceman flew circles around Juggernaut, trapping him in a cage of ice, while Spyke fired spikes from his hands.

Both boys' efforts were useless, as Juggernaut kept smashing the ice before him, and didn't even seem to notice the spikes ricocheting off his body.

"Where's Invisible Man," Morph asked, looking around. He spotted a black leather trench coat, without a head or feet, slowly backing into the X-2. "Invisible Man! Get back out here!"

Invisible Man looked over, placed his left arm horizontally over his chest, then thrust his other arm upward. He then obediently walked down the steps of the X-2. Morph couldn't blame him; he probably had no idea what to do.

He looked around. None of them knew what to do, they were all exhausting themselves, wasting time. How could he expect anymore? They weren't ready for this. "Morph," Rogue said. Morph looked at her. "What's wrong?"

"Look at them Rogue," he said. "This was a mistake. We're not ready for anything like this."

"What are you talking about? Of course we are! The Professor said so. The problem is, we're all fighting one-on-one with him. There are seven of us, why don't we act like it?"

"Of course!" Morph could have slapped himself in the forehead. After all those years with the X-Men, he should have learned enough about teamwork. Although, it was one thing to take orders; it was an entirely different thing to give them. "I have an idea. Rogue, if we can get Juggernaut's helmet off, can you get close enough to touch him?"

"Yeah, of course."

"Alright, then I think we have a chance. Follow me."

Morph and Rogue sprinted to the center of the action. "We have to get his helmet off," Morph yelled.

"Heh, bigger men than you have tried, kid," Juggernaut said.

"Invisible Man, distract him," Morph said.

"Sure thing chief," Invisible Man said. He took his coat off and hurled it at Juggernaut, covering his face.

"Spyke, cage him!"

Spyke fired long spikes into the ground around Juggernaut in a circle around him.

Juggernaut ripped the coat off. "You're kiddin', right," he said.

"Shadowcat hold him down," Morph called.

Shadowcat phased up through the ground behind Juggernaut. She grabbed him and phased back down, trapping Juggernaut from the shoulders up in the pavement. She phased back up in front of him and smiled.

"You'll have to do better than that," Juggernaut said. He broke free of his cement prison.

"Colossus," Morph said. "Iceman, take Rogue up!"

Colossus was right there, and grabbed Juggernaut's arms and held them behind his back. With a free hand Colossus ripped Juggernaut's helmet off.

Iceman speed overhead on a sheet of ice, Rogue right behind him. As Colossus pulled Juggernaut's helmet off, Rogue jumped down. In midair she took a glove off and touched his face.

"Hey, what're you doin'," Juggernaut said. He screamed in agony, and fell to his knees.

"I can't let go," Rogue said. She let out an earth shattering scream.

"Oh God," Morph said.

Juggernaut fell face first onto the pavement, and Rogue jumped off. The pavement crashed underneath her feet.

"We have to slow her down before she kills herself," Morph said.

Rogue screamed again. "I've got her," Colossus said. He ran to her, but Rogue screamed again and swung her arm, sending Colossus into the air.

"Rogue," Iceman shouted, running towards her.

"Iceman," Morph called after him.

Rogue screamed, and Iceman grabbed her by the shoulders. "Rogue," he yelled. "Rogue!"

"Bobby," she asked, her voice sounding almost like an echo. "Bobby help me!"

"I'm here. Look into my eyes. Rogue look into my eyes!"

Rouge lowered her head and looked at Iceman. "Bobby," she asked.

"Yeah, I'm here," he answered.

"Oh God," Rogue wrapped her arms tightly around Iceman and began to weep.

"It's alright, it's over."

"Where's Juggernaut," Morph asked, sounding a little panicked.

"There," Colossus pointed to a figured stumbling down the sidewalk in the distance.

"Is he going to be okay?"

"Yeah, he should be fine in a couple of hours," Rogue said, quickly regaining her composure. "He'll be pretty out of it for a while too. The way I held onto him, I would have paralyzed a normal person."

"Well, Juggernaut's not any normal person," Morph said.

"You can say that again," Spyke said.

"You know, for the first time, I feel confident about us. All we needed was a little teamwork."

"Do you think we could get out of here," Rogue asked. "I think I need to lie down."

"Yeah, our works done here," Iceman helped her onto the X-2. "You did good Morph," Iceman told him as he walked by.

"No, we did good; all of us." Morph walked up the ramp to the jet, and it took off.
