Chapter 2- Time of Killing
The sky had been dark for over an hour. The moon was full, but clouds were slowly overtook it. Nobody saw the sixteen year old girl sneak in and out of the building cautiously, at least until it was too late. Guards went down one after another, their throats were slit, and some even had a stab in the back. She remained in the shadows and one by one the perimeter guards were taken down by the single mutant.
Then the sound was heard. and the click of the gun that was easily heard in the silence of the night. The girl turned with a scowl on her face. Her menacing demon eyes looked straight into the soldiers own brown one. They glew in the dark and showed no fear, A smirk formed on her face and she let out a howl. The soldier disappeared.
She turned and was surrounded. One by one the guns started to glow, each exploding less then a minute apart. She was silent and only looked around, seemingly waiting. "Desiree LeBeau you are under arrest" A voice from above said, a bright light shined down on her and she winced covering her eyes for a moment.
"Unda what charges M'sieur?" She questioned with a smirk.
"For resisting the orders given by the government to go to your designated camp area."
"Where ah'll be treated lahke nuttin more din and animal?" Desiree exclaimed. "Ah'm a human being... ah…"
"You are a MUTANT…you are a disgrace to the human beings, this is your fault the world is like this."
"Meh fault, Ah was thirteen year old!" she screamed at the top of her lungs
"Restrain her now"
"Ah dare y' t' try" she hissed and pulled out her bo-staff. "Y' killed meh parents!" The bo-staff swung around and hit one soldier in the head, another forcefully across the back and a third in the knee caps. Just before Desiree was thrown to the ground the helicopter glow a red color and then exploded twenty seconds later.
"We have her" The soldier said into his walkie-talkie.
"I don't think so" A voice growled and three claws went through the guy's chest. "You mess with one, you mess with us all. " The male voice had a Japanese dialect. His black hair was up out of his face and his black eyes threatened anyone who stepped near the unconscious Desiree. Blood covered his Ninja claws and the unfortunate soldier was now at his feet.
Next to the man was a grey wolf, snarling at the soldiers. He waited for the command from his owner to attack, and he wanted to. The canine was ready for anything that came his way. The bloodthirsty animal wanted this as bad as James Howlett Jr. did. The moment James stuck the sword in his left hand through the stomach of one of the soldiers; Fang went for another's throat.
Out of nowhere Desiree was picked up and taken away from the fight, unconscious to the world around her. In her place, Jade Summers stood. Her red hair flew out behind her, green emeralds narrowed in anger. "Wolf…what's the plan?" She asked and fell into fighting stance.
"Retreat back, we need to regroup and find a way to help Rebel." James said and started backing away. "We've stayed here long enough, Legacy move out" he instructed the last few words through the communicator, and several figures were seen moving away from the scene.
"What happened?" General Mitchell Theumonte asked as the commander reported to him.
"The girl, Rebel, she wasn't able to be seen, sir…"
"That girl is becoming a nuisance!" Mitchell yelled slamming his fist into the table. "We have lost more men because of her in the past year, its ridiculous, where is she getting the training; I want a full background on her and that one you said saved her."
"Wolf?"
"Yes the animal" The General hissed and turned his back on.
"Sir, their real names. We don't…"
"Desiree LeBeau and James Howlett" he answered before the whole question was given to him.
It didn't take long for them to come back with a small stack of papers on each of them. "We knew this already…daughter of Remy LeBeau and the woman known as Rogue, Anna Marie…Her powers…much like her fathers…grew up in the south…this isn't what I need!"
"Sir that's all we have…no more can be found on her…"
"And the guy?"
"We have a few profiles with that name…Wolverine, the X-men…and then James Howlett Jr. we found that he was living in Japan until a year before everything happened"
"We have anything on him?"
"Nothing sir…and if we did…I think someone tampered with our files."
"We have the highest security…" he growled and walks towards the map on the wall. "We have been attacked by them numerous occasions and nobody can capture them"
"Reporting in sir" one of the soldiers said saluting him. "We seem to have found where they are hiding" he said. "You may not live to find out though"
"Soldier, you will not say those words"
"Sir, yes, sir" The man said almost sarcastically. "But I am right" he removed his hat and a smirk was on his face. "So much for good security huh?" the guy said.
"Who is this…what's going on?"
"Just here to have a chat about what you've been doing to these mutants, you know them as Legacy"
"How the hell did you get in?"
"That doesn't matter, I'm here though" his eyes flashed yellow. "Now you have destroyed many lives with your war, I'm ready to destroy someone for it"
"Who are you?" the man laughed and then morphed. Blue skin came through and red hair. She wore a white skit with skulls around the waist, and a matching white top.
"You may want to think twice about attacking them…they are well protected…well known. You destroyed their lives" Mystique slammed the man against the wall. "If you kill my Granddaughter you won't be safe from anyone" she hissed in warning. "You've already slaughtered my son, and butchered my daughter…I'm giving you a warning before you die, lay off of that team" She said and suddenly turns and races out of the room.
The General stood there in shock. A mutant terrorist was threatening him if he went after the team that was destroying their plans in the war. "Sir, what do we do?"
"Go on with your plans, and keep security extra tight"
The Commanding officer nodded and outside the door a soldiers eyes narrowed at what he just heard. "It won't happen" He said and leaves the post.
Wolf moved quickly back to the base located a few miles east of where they had fought. It was the place Logan had told James to take the group if anything happened, and something did happen, they were all murdered.
It was actually a good place to be living, under ground, but still good. It was furnished completely and each of them only had to share a room with one other person, that was until they got even more recruits, wandering mutants.
Over the passed few years they had picked up a few mutants that were alone. They had been run out of their homes, the cities, and then state. Of course not all stayed but Legacy was a safe haven for a few days.
When he arrived in the building, James pressed a button on his belt and the wall opened, revealing a stair case. He walked down the stairs and then pressed a second button. The first door shut and another lifted from the floor. He walked through and saw all the others sitting on the couch, surrounding the television.
New Report:
Today the army had another fight with the mutant resistant known as Legacy X. Many reports say that a single mutant, the one known as Rebel slaughtered our soldiers. When they were about to take her another showed up ready for a fight, nobody saw the fight coming, the animal attacked without warning and brought down several other men while Rebel was rescued by another mutant, How ever that one remains unidentified.
If anyone has any information on this renegade group please contact the police immediately. An award has been placed out for anyone who can identify these mutants and have them captured.
In other news…..
James snorted at the report. "Bullshit, animals always give a warning before they attack" he said making his appearance known. Zaira gave off a small laugh at her brother.
"So it went well?"
"Yeah…Desiree is in the infirmary correct?" He asked
"Yes she is fine though" the fifteen year old told her older brother. "She only has a concussion…I think Jade is letting her out in about an hour"
"Good...we need to start planning. The army is coming closer and closer to our location; we need to move to a new location.
"But James...they can't find us here can they?"
"It's always a possibility"
"Of course but we've been here for three years"
"Exactly why its time to leave Z" she nodded. "Look...we can't risk losing any of the group, you know that, we have to continue fighting, we have to move in order to survive"
"I know" She whispered
