Yukari was walking through the forest late at night because she lost time in the library, so now she had no one to walk with except the light of the full crimson moon in the sky. "It's a good night for a walk" she said as she skipped along humming something as a shadow rushed past her "What was that?" she asked become a bit jittery about it "Good evening" a voice said making Yukari freeze "A little late for a young girl such as yourself isn't it?" the voice asked as a shadow now towered over her "Time to say goodnight" the shadow said unfurling something metallic as the sound of something slicing into another thing was heard followed by Yukari's dying screams. "They'll find you don't worry" the shadow said laying her cape over her. "And by the time they do it may be too late" the shadow said taking off leaving a badly injured Yukari in the middle of the forest.

"MOVE!" Alex and Bobby shouted as the rushed something to the nurse's office "JEAN!" Alex said placing the object on a bed which turned out to be a heavily injured Yukari "What happened?" Jean asked coming in with Kitty "We found her like this in the forest, so how is she?" Alex asked. "It seems that whatever attacked had claws, X-23 maybe?" Kitty asked. "No she only brought her claws out against Logan" Bobby said "so we are dealing with an opponent that uses a bladed weapon, but what" Jean said. "And who" Bobby said, they didn't hear the words out of Yukari's mouth "Angel" before she blacked out. "What was that Yukari?" Kitty asked not getting anything from the girl. "We'll scout the grounds" Bobby said.

The X-Guys were preparing to patrol the grounds, "Remember, whatever attacked Yukari is still here, and I'm guessing he is Cloaked, the guy who helped us out with Kotaro" Iceman said zipping up his stealth suit, while the others did the same. "So what are we going to do with him?" Gambit asked. "Easy, we defeat him and find out what else Chimera is planning" Alex said as he walked out of the Outpost's ready room and was followed by the others "Gambit Colossus go east, Sunfire you and Bobby take the West side, I've got the north" Alex said as the guys scattered in their assigned directions.

"This area's clear, just like the last five" Alex said bored. "I much rather be cosy with Ruby in front of a fire with a cup of hot chocolate then be here" he muttered. "Sorry to keep you from your date with Ruby" Cloaked said appearing behind Havok. "I've been waiting to fight you Cloaked, and this time you won't be hidng that face of yours" Havok said. "Of course not what do you take me for a coward?" Cloaked asked as two metallic wings shredded the cloak into places revealing a man with blue skin wearing a navy and magenta body suit that hid everything but his wing and face. "Shall we?" Havok asked as his opponent flew off. "Prick" Havok said chasing after him.

"Here, no one will be able to be harm besides you" Cloaked said as he threw some of his metallic feathers at Havok who destroyed them with his concussive energy blasts "Is that your best shot?" Havok asked in a cocky manner. "You were always a cocky one Alexander" Cloaked said smiling "Who are you and how...No can't be Angel?" Havok asked. "I prefer Archangel now" Archangel said "What the hell happened to you?" Havok asked as he saw his old friend now his new enemy. "Magnificent isn't it? Mr Sinister certainly did a good job augmenting him didn't he?" X-23 said caressing Archangel's shoulder "Sinister, I should have known; come on Warren, what about Kurumu?" Alex asked charging his fist. "She was nothing but a fling" Archangel chuckled as he launched himself at Havok. "I'm going to kill you!" Havok snarled.

Wolverine smelt something "Alright whose there?" he asked. "Ah, you were always a tough one to get past Wolverine" a dark voice chuckled "Sinister!" Logan growled as the white skinned mutant walked out into the light "What are you doing here, and where's Apocalypse?" Wolverine asked. "I no longer work for Apocalypse, I have a new employer now, one that you might know" Sinister said smiling "Gyukuro" Wolverine said "Yes, and now I have three successes, You Archangel, and your daughter Laura" Sinister smirked. "My Daughter, Wait Dr Kinney; the night we spent together, and then you experiment on her" Logan snarl as his eye went to their berserker state. "And now I'll make sure you never take another breath, YOU MONSTEROUS BUTCHER!" Logan howled.

Havok was slammed into the ground as the rest of the team raced up to him "Havok!" Iceman said as Archangel landed on the ground "Hello my old friends" "Angel?" Remy asked "That was what we called him, he calls himself Archangel" Havok said getting up with holding his ribs "That and X-23, shit we're in trouble" Iceman said activating his ice armour "That will not save you" Archangel said as X-23 brought out her claws. "Let's rumble" X-23 said as she charged Gambit, Colossus and Sunfire. "Great we get Archangel" Iceman said firing ice darts at their opponent, who simply blocks with his new organic metal wings "My turn" the fallen X-man said throwing razor sharp

"Where am I?" Yukari groaned as she couldn't move her arms "Yuakri, you're awake!" Kurumu said excited as teh other girls joined her. "Hey, how are you feeling?" Moka asked caringly and softly "Its hurts" Yukari said as tears prickled her eyes. "Hey we'll make sure you recover alright, I bet that Ruby is working on something right now" Kurumu said stroking the witch's hair. "But a better question would be who did this to you?" Mizore asked. "Someone I couldn't believe who it was" Yukari said "Who was it?" Moka asked as Yukari sadly looked at Kurumu, "I'm sorry Kurumu; but it was Angel" The witch said "No, no it can't be, Warren" Kurumu gasped collapsing "I'm sorry Kurumu but it was him, but at teh same time he was different, darker and more sadistic then his usual gentleman like self" Yukari said.

"Peter?" Kitty asked looking for her significant other when a crash was heard "Pete?" she asked turning the corner to see Wolverine and Sinister locked in a death match. The only sound the Chicago girl could hear from Logan was growling "Oh shit his in a berserker state and I'm betting Sinister has something to do with it" Kitty gasped as she saw Wolverine impale his prey over and over again before finally dealing with him, "Logan?" Kitty asked unsure "What's up short stack" Logan said withdrawing his claws "I can't find Colossus" Kitty said "Heck, Rogue and Rahne can;t find Gin as well do you know where they are?" Kitty asked. "I have a pretty good idea, round up the girls we'll need them" Logan said.

"So who is this creep?" Gin asked as he and Tsukune entered the battle beside Iceman and Havok. "It's our old friend Angel" Havok groaned "That's Angel! What happened?" Tsukune exclaimed as Archangel stood there smirking "Why yes I am Tsukune Aono; how perceptive for a mere human" Archangel taunted. "Don't!" Havok said as he saw Tsukune tense his fists "Hey, you think that you can fight me?" Archangel laughed as Tsukune ran up to him and lobbed a fist into the madman's face before moving out the way "Havok!" Tsukune indicated "Got ya Tsukune" Havok said firing a single blast into Archangel's chest before Gin tackled him in the back "We got him!" Gin cheered only to take a sucker punch to the gut as Archangel gained some altitude. "Bring it on" Tsukune said using his strength to reach the same altitude.

"What?" Archangel asked in disbelief as Tsukune slugged him one, before landing on Archangel leg while he was tryi9ng to kick the Dhampir, only to have him jump over Archangel and deliver a couple of quick fists to Archangel's back "Now you've done it" Tsukune said as he axe kicked Archangel towards the groun before rebounding off the building near them to land safely on the ground. "That's some Spidey shit right there"
Gambit said. "TSUKUNE!" Moka cried as the girls appeared. "Oh crap" Havok muttered.

"Warren?" Kurumu asked walking closer to the mutant that used to be Angel "Is that truly you?" she asked as tears started to shimmer "Keep her back" Havok shouted, Kurumu ignored him as she now stood close to him. "Kurumu, you still look beautiful and it steals my heart seeing you again" Archangel said stroking Kurumu's face "But unfortunately that is where my feelings for you end" he said darkly before punching her in the stomach "KURUMU!" the girls said "You bastard" Havok said as he powered an attack. "HAVOK DON'T! You might hit her" Wolverine said "Then what should we do?" Iceman said chilling of before collapsing onto Mizore's shoulder.

"Take this" Yukari said suddenly attacking "Didn't you learn your lesson last time?" Archangel said discarding Kurumu as a ball of violet fire approached him only to Archangel it was nothing as he used his wings as a shield "Is that all you have?" the dark avian asked Ruby "Nothing! That was one of my most powerful spells" Ruby flinched. "Screw that he's going after Yukari" Tsukune said "I don't think so" Archangel said firing off several feather like blades. "Now time to make sure you don't make it" Archangel said raising one of his wingtips top strike her down. "See ya Brat" Archangel said bringing it down like a dagger. "NO!" they shouted.

Yukari opened her eyes looking up she saw Archangel's wing being held back by X-23 "What are you doing X-23?" Archangel asked. "Stopping you from killing her, oh and Archangel I quit" she said backhanding him with the other hand "Oh my name is not X-23, Its Laura" Laura said as she kicked him in the head. "You traitor, you don't realise how much of a mistake you just made" Archangel said standing there as a blue vortex opened up "Time for a tactical retreat" Archangel grumbled before flying into the portal. "Get back here!" Laura said stabbing the ground where Archangel just was. "Crap I'm sorry he got away" she said shyly rubbing her arm. "Don't worry squirt" Logan said ruffling his daughter's hair. "i'm just glad you're back to normal and out of the control of Chimera" Logan said hugging her "Thanks, dad" Laura said returning the hug.
