The New Recruit
Raven searched for a safe place where she could fight the guys chasing after her. She spotted the old library and thought that place would be as good as any. She landed in front of the door, and walked inside. She could see why no one used this place. It was stinky and moldy. She had no time to check the scene because the cat had caught it's prey.
"There's no place for you to hide now," the Blob spoke as he walked towards Raven.
Raven used her powers to throw him into the wall behind him. It was the signal for the fight to begin. Logan fought off Sabertooth. Pyro was the first to attack Raven, but she was more powerful than him. She used her energy as a beam to counter attack his fire attack. The result was him being knocked out by both attacks.
The X-men had arrived to help out the Raven. Each took a bad guy. Scott had Pyro, Rouge had Quicksilver, Jean had Toad, Raven had Collussus, Evan had Mystique, Kitty had lance, and Tabby had Wanda, and Kurt had Blob. The X-men were winning, until Magneto had shown up.
Magneto knocked out Kitty, Kurt, Evan, and Tabby with one hit. Raven noticed the battle was now favoring the brother hood. She attacked Magneto. He threw a giant metal scrap at her, but she used her all her energy to block it. Both Magneto and Raven were struggling control for the piece of crap metal. Raven managed to get the upper hand and flung the piece of metal back at Magneto, sending crashing through a wall.
All the fighting had broken the structure of the library. Pieces of the roof cam crashing down on the X-men. The X-men moved their concentration from fighting the Brotherhood to stopping the building from crumbling. Jean tried to use her telekenisis to hold the crumbling pieces togeher with no success. It was no use, the building was going to crumble.
"We need to get everyone out of here," Scott ordered.
Everyone ran to the exit, but were stopped byy crumbling concrete blocking the exit.
"We're trapped," Rouge cried out.
"Kitty and Kurt are still out. Jean try to move the rocks," Scott commanded.
Jean nodded her head in agreement. She focused all her energy on moving the rocks and not her surroundings.
"Jean look out!" Raven shouted.
A broken pipe fell on Jean, rendering her onconcious. Scott ran to her side and lifted her limp body.
"Jean!" he souted, but it was no use.
Raven looked at everyone. Some where deep inside her, she knew what she had to do. She raised her hands and used all her energy to put a barrier around all the mutants.
"Raven what are you doing?" Logan asked.
"Everyone get together!" Raven shouted.
Everyone crowded around Raven with baffled expressions.
Raven's eyes went completly white.
"I'm going to transport you guys outside, now stay together," Raven stated.
"What about you?" Logan asked.
"If I stop concentrating on keeping the library from crumbling, no one will escape," Raven answered.
A look of sadness hit Logan.
Everyone but Raven was transported outside.
"I can't hold on!" Raven spoke as she colapsed.
The building followed suit immediatly.
The X-men looked at the rubble, hoping some how Raven could have survived.
Suddenly a black bird flew up from the rubble. The black bird cried out. It was Raven! She survived. She fell back down to the ground and lost conciousness.
