Sabretooth receded in his mind and Victor hurried over to Agent Buckley. He couldn't hear any other heartbeat but hers, beating slowly in her chest. As soon as he was near enough Vic examined her for any wounds, of course he hadn't found any and he breathed a sigh of relief, with his mutant healing he didn't really know anything about medical care.
"Hey... Hey Lottie wake up..." He shook her shoulders gently and she let out a low mewl of pain, he stopped and looked around helplessly. He spotted some water and tasted it just to double check, when he was sure it was just plain water he brought it over to her and dipped a rag he had found in it to clean her face.
As soon as the damp rag touched her face, her eyes flew open and she brought arm up in reflex, slapping Victor across the face. Luckily she was still weak and there wasn't much force behind it, her eyes grew wide as she realised what was going on and she reached out to cup his face.
"Oh Victor I'm so sorry i didn't mean to hit you, you surprised me that's all. Did i hurt y... Why am i half naked?" The suddenness of the conversation and tone change made Victor burst out laughing and to his delight she scowled deeply.
"You're so lucky i remember what happened or i would really hurt you." He sobered his expression and touched her face lightly.
"You ok? I... I heard ya screamin' I came as soon as i could." Thats when she realised that they were out of their cells, not only that but they could escape.
"We can get the hell out of here! Fuck being ok i could sing!"
Vic grinned and put a finger to her lips "Sing later, i wanna find that sonuva bitch that hurt ya."
Lottie bit her lip as she grinned, she was supposed to be the reasonable one, the responsible one. But she had to admit, she wanted pay back... For a lot of things.
"Oh alright..." Vic grinned and helped her off of the table, she stretched and he tried his best not to stare at her. "Time to kill that asshole." He could smell the adrenaline pumping around her system and he smirked, he was glad he wasn't the only one that got excited about killing.
He couldn't resist a small dig at this behaviour "Are you sure this is professional?" She grinned back at him.
"Hell no it isn't, lets go." He couldn't argue with that and grabbed her hand, leading her back the way he came. Lottie was secretly touched that he came to her rescue, she had been told that no matter what Creed always looked out for number one. The fact that he had come to save her even though he could be half way back to the base by now gave her butterflies in her stomach.
They followed Sinister's scent and despite the fact that Vic was quite willing to let the two female guards live, who were by now stripping each other of their uniforms, Lottie had other ideas and killed them herself. Vic was surprised Lottie would be this eager to kill, when she turned to face him again he saw her eyes had gone black and gold again.
"Pantheria wasn't it?" She grinned and purred as she licked blood off of her claws. He was so interested to meet someone else like him, someone that had another aspect to themselves.
"Where's your fun side Creed? Don't you want to play?" Every word was like a caress as it rolled off of her tongue and he couldn't help himself, his eyes turned white and he grinned.
"Ya wanna play huh? Think ya can play with tha big cats?" She grinned back at him and flexed her claws.
"I bet i can kill more than you can"
His interest was piqued and he eyed her "The stakes?"
"What do you want?" She raised an eyebrow as she raked her hand through her white locks.
"I want you." That's all that he needed to say to start that sultry smile spreading across her face again.
"If you win, i will let you have me. But if i win..."
Sabretooth waited wondering what she could want from him.
"I want a token." He was stumped.
"A whut?"
She rolled her eyes at him "A token of your affection, something pretty."
He snorted but shrugged "You're on, clean slate our tally starts from now." She nodded and got to her feet, casually rubbing up against him to purr in his ear as he leant down to smell her.
"Agreed." He was about to open his mouth and say something when she took off for the door the women were guarding, Sabretooth laughed and caught up with her.
"Cheater..." She fluttered her eyelashes at him.
"You never said anything about playing fair Sabey baby." Once again she had him stunned, he had never been given a pet name... Well except for that one time he did a solo mission with Deadpool, though he hoped Wilson had forgotten the name he used.
She giggled and slipped through the door, grunts and strangled screams of pain echoed through to him and kicked him back into gear. He followed after her to see she had three guards dead already "Your taking your time Sabey, do you want me to win?"
He smirked at her and ran past to find Sinister "First thing ya gotta know 'bout me girl... I always win!"
Pantheria smirked and followed him not saying a word, she didn't need too, she knew he had greater bloodlust than her and if she was going to win this little bet she would need to distract him, luckily for her he seemed to be distracted by anything she did.
The hallways were empty for a long while and Sabretooth was beginning to think Sinister had escaped, when a waft of scent hit him and stopped him in his tracks. The smell of 25 different people and Sinister himself came floating on the air from a grate high up on the wall to their left, he glanced at Pantheria who was also smelling the air. The two ferals met each others eyes and grinned, this was going to be fun.
They were skulking along the corridor towards this nest of people, it was going to be a challenge they both knew it and there was a good chance they would get captured again. However neither one of them went down without a fight and they had a bet to win, each for their own reasons.
Pantheria, being the smaller and lighter of the two slipped silently into the room and judging it to be safe for the hulking frame of Sabretooth waved him in. They had found themselves to be in some sort of factory and as they crept closer they saw dozens of weapons being boxed up and shipped out. They decided on the tactical side of taking a side each, Pantheria went to the right and Sabretooth to the left. They were going to meet in the middle and rip Sinister limb from limb. The key to their plan... Silence.
