Remy and Rogue were at the harbour. It was the middle of the night and the Acolytes were preparing to set sail. They had a small army of a hundred soldiers with them. They were experienced but they were just going to destroy the facility.
''Gambit'll be back soon. Do not worry chere.'' Remy said. He was saying goodbye to Rogue.
''I'm not swamp rat just don't die.'' Rogue said. She seemed genuinely worried.
''Worried?'' Remy asked with a devilish grin.
''Too young to be a widow.'' Rogue said. Remy chuckled at that.
''Gambit'll be back tomorrow...River rat.'' Remy said walking off. Rogue walked away and bumped into Wanda.
''Here to say goodbye to John?'' Rogue asked. Wanda seemed tired and upset.
''Already have.'' Wanda said. Rogue was sure Wanda was a little drunk.
''How is he?'' Rogue asked.
''I'm sure he will be fine. How's Remy?'' Wanda asked. She stumbled a little.
''More excited than worried.'' Rogue said.
''Acolytes always are. It's their breed.'' Wanda said. She slurred the last word.
''Are you drunk?'' Rogue asked. She was worried about her.
''...Yes.'' Wanda said after a pause.
Remy and John got into the boat. Piotr was putting on his metal armour. It covered his entire body but yet he was still able to move perfectly. Remy had his normal armour on and so did John.
''Ready mate?'' John said as he sat down. The boat started to take off.
''Very.'' Piotr said picking up a giant battle hammer.

Logan and Ororo were approaching the Morlock cave. The cave was surrounded by snow but was very noticeable. It was twenty meters high and twelve wide. The two walked up to the cave and looked inside. Logan sniffed the air.
''Something doesn't smell right.'' Logan said as he looked around sniffing.
''What do you mean?'' Ororo asked. She looked around but could not see anything.
''Let's go inside.'' Logan said. He had his claws out ready to kill anyone who dared attack them.
The two a second before going into the cave. It was pitch black and not even Logan could see his way through there but they walked through. They managed to walk their way through by being slow and quiet. There was no scent so Logan couldn't smell his way through. It was to cold for a torch. There was a little flicker of light, Logan and Ororo headed towards it, it got brighter and brighter.
Logan and Ororo ran into a very large space. There was a huge fire with the Morlocks standing around it. The fire was the only light despite a small hole at the top which let in sunshine. Logan and Ororo looked around to find at least fifty Morlocks ready to aim their bow and arrows at them. Callisto was standing high. She was the leader of the Morlocks and possibly the most dangerous one. She had only one eye but she could see anywhere and anything. Her hair was as dark as the tunnels and she was dressed in fur and leather armour.
''Why is the Wolverine and bringer of Storms here?'' Callisto yelled.
''Evan, my nephew.'' Ororo said. She looked around looking for her nephew.
''My name is Spyke.'' Evan yelled. He was wearing armour made out of bone. He had been with the X-men for a few years but he joined the Morlocks after being disgusted after watching a group of Morlocks get poisoned. He wore an armour out of bones and even used a sword made out of bones. He made it from his enemies.
''You attacked us, why?'' Logan yelled.
''We are starving, freezing, diseased and we have to fend for ourselves Wolverine.'' Evan yelled.
''It needs to stop.'' Logan yelled.
''How will we survive?'' Evan screamed.
''Logan stop this.'' Ororo whispered.
''Attack us again and we will do to you what we did the last time you invaded.'' Logan said showing his claws at the Morlocks.
''You come in here and threaten us? Take aim.'' Callisto yelled. The archer took aim and drew their bows.
''Nature I command you, bring forth thunder and lightning.'' Ororo yelled. Her eyes became white and there was a heavy wind in the cave. The fire was put out and the small hole became increasingly large.
''What is this?'' Callisto yelled.
''Fire.'' Evan screamed.
The gap was now large enough. Three bursts of lightning hit the inside of the cave. Two strands hit archers killing at least twenty. The third hit the spot in which the fire was. It roared like up high and killed four Morlocks. Callisto looked in panic as Logan went beserve on the dazed Morlocks. Ororo hovered in the air.
''This was not what I wanted.'' Ororo said before taking off. Logan was picked up by the winds and they were dropped into the forest.
''Get them.'' Callisto said to Evan. He nodded.
''Why didn't you take us back?'' Logan asked as he got up. They were a mile away from the cave.
''I did not have the strength Logan.'' Ororo said. She took a minute to get her energy back.
''I think you have just started a war.'' Logan said.
A small army of Morlocks grabbed their horses and were riding out to find the two. They were riding through the forest as fast as they could. Evan was leading them.
''I think I have enough energy for one last blast.'' Ororo said standing up. Her eyes became white and she started to hover.
''Remember, he is your nephew.'' Logan said.
''He holds so much hatred for us now. He does not see me as a aunt anymore.'' Ororo explained. A giant storm came over the mountain in which the cave was.
''What is she doing?'' Evan asked looking up at the storm. He then realised what was about to happen.
''Behold the force of the elements.'' Ororo yelled. She unleashed the lightning down on the mountain and the forest area around it. The explosions and fires killed many of the Morlocks.
Evan was riding through the burning forest until a falling tree hit him and trapped him. He screamed and screamed until he got himself out by smashing the tree with his bone sword. He looked up at the mountain The fire raged from the cave.
''I will have my vengeance.'' Evan screamed.

The Acolytes had arrived on the small island. They saw the clearly visible factory and got off the boat. It was dark and quiet so they took their time and were careful. Not a sound was made from the men. They approached the wall and looked for a small entrance. They walked along it and found a door.
''Gambit. I thought you should do it since you're more into the explosions side rather than fire.'' John said as the soldiers surrounded the door.
''Cheers mon ami.'' Remy said as he walked to the door. He put a card under the door and scrapped it with his glove. It started to gain a purple glow. Within seconds the door exploded and the men charged in.
The men ran through the base killing anyone who wasn't them. The guard were quickly killed. Sabretooth ran through the base and jumped onto a guard. He used his metal claws to crush the man head. Fifty guards came in but were quickly defeated without losing too many men. John started to set fire to the facility.
The group ran outside and as the fire started. They had only attacked one section but the fire will spread to all four and they will pick off the rest.
''Well Done lads. Drinks on me.'' Pietro yelled. The men cheered.
The group looked at the burning facility and then saw a small lantern on the beach. A soldier quickly took him out with his crossbow. More and more lights were lit to reveal a large cavalry of three hundred men.
''They're not meant to be here.'' Piotr said as he got a better grip on his hammer.
There were small lights coming up from the sky. A burst of flames then flew across the sky and hit the boat, blowing it up. Out of the darkness came eleven large, metallic men each were twenty foot high.
''What do you think Quicksilver?'' John asked.
''Fight.'' Pietro said. Everyone took out their weapons and roared.
''Fire arrows.'' Remy yelled. Everyone took their small crossbows and fired. They put their crossbows down and took out their swords. John scrapped his across the ground and it caught fire. He swung the fiery blade.
''This is why they call me Pyro.'' John said.
''Charge.'' The cavalry screamed. The large metallic men or Sentinels raised their arms and fires more bursts of fire. The Acolytes charged and the cavalry and began the fight.

Erik is walking through the gardens. Lorna loved to take care of them, it made her happy being able to do the gardening. He had to admit it, she did an amazing job at it. It was the middle of the night and he was waiting for word on the attack. Lorna came walking out.
''Lorna, you should be in bed.'' Erik said.
''Oh, sorry father I, I.'' Lorna said. She was a little embarrassed.
''It's fine. I know about your midnight strolls.'' Erik said. He was soft towards Lorna.
''I like to think.'' Lorna said as she sniffed a flower.
''About what?'' Erik asked.
''The future.'' Lorna said. Erik smiled at this.
''I can tell you that. When I die Pietro will become king. Wanda will marry someone and so will you.'' Erik explained.
''Yeah but who and what will he be like?'' Lorna asked.
''I'm sure we'll find someone for you. Now come on it's late.'' Erik said. He took hold of Lorna and headed towards the door.
''Good night father.'' Lorna said as she walked inside.
''Good night.'' Erik said.

The Acolytes were fighting. They were exhausted and weak. Most of their soldiers had been killed by the enemy and the Sentinels. Remy and John were fighting side by side. Johns blade set any man on fire he touched with it whilst Remy was being ruthless.
Remy smacked a spear to the side and slashed the man's throat. A soldier with a mace ran at him. He jumped out the way and cut him in half. A Sentinel came closer to them.
''Gambit, Sentinel.'' John yelled. He swung his sword around in the air killing two men. A man on a horse came charge and him but John swung his sword knocking the man off his horse.
Remy looked at the Sentinel and took out a card. He rubbed it against his hand and it started to glow purple. He threw it at the Sentinel blowing its right arm off. The oil from the fuel tank started to squirt and caught fire causing the Sentinel to explode.
Piotr was fighting three men with his hammer. One of the attacked him and he smashed his skull and then picked up his sword. He swung both weapons around killing the other two men. A Sentinel took target and fired a burst of flames at him. Piotr managed to jump out of the way but he was still affected by the flames. Part of the armour started to burn to his skin.
Pietro was running through the battlefield with his two swords swinging them around killing as many as he could. He jumped up on a horse and rode it through the battlefield. He took down a few more people before being hit by an arrow. It went into his chest and he fell to the ground. He crawled around for a bit. He broke the arrow but he was in so much pain. A man walked up to him. He was wearing a skull mask with a hood. Pietro knew who this was.
''Pathetic.'' Taskmaster said. The legendary mercenary looked down on Pietro before kicking him in the face, knocking him unconscious.
The Acolytes were surrounded by the enemy and were forced to surrender.
