Part. 11 Bending the rules
I still don't have a beta so I'm sorry for the spelling and grammar!
(For Derek and Jubilee´s costumes I was thinking something like the ones they had in the X-men movies, just so you know and I´m really sorry for the long waiting, I have just been so busy)
"So are we fighting or not?" Jessie asked as Xpression along with Jubilee and Derek arrived two houses down from Professor Silverman´s mansion.
"You are going to save the people who are still in there" Jubilee said turning to her team. They had been suited up and ready to go only ten minutes after Casey had activated the alarm, and she remembered what Derek had said, have faith in them.
"That means going in and getting them out safely, only attach if you are being attached" Jubilee said. "And Marisa?"
"Yes?" Marisa answered and Jubilee could hear that she was really nervous.
"You will only heal those who can't wait until they get to the hospital or are in really bad pain" Jubilee told her. "I can't risk you collapsing"
"Jubilee and I will be right beside you and if things get really out of hand, get the people and yourself out and head back to school, but do not leave anyone behind" Derek told them.
"But we are leaving without you?" Jaimie asked. "If things get out of hand?"
"Yes and I expect you to do what your told" Jubilee said. "Every one of you, both Derek and I are Alpha, we'll be fine"
"So how are we doing this?" Justin asked.
"We are going in from the left side of the mansion, Jubilee will blow a whole so that we get into the room beside the one the debate was held in, ignore the Brotherhood, ignore the X-men if they are there just get the people out of there" Derek said. "And I don't want anyone to play hero"
"Marisa and Derek will be waiting outside to tend to the wounded" Jubilee said. "Now come on we got a mission to do"
Because of the fact that everyone's attention was on the front of the big mansion getting to the left side was easy even for a team of uniformed mutants.
The rest of the team stepped back as Jubilee raised her hands and let the multicolored plasma hit the big wall. It didn't take more then two seconds before the wall was gone.
Once the dust started to clear Jubilee gave the team a signal and they went in, the room was completely empty but you could hear the screams coming from the other side of the wall and the big fight that were taking place, Jubilee placed her hand the big door that lead into the big bal room and broke open the lock with her powers.
"I don't think they will notes you if you go in slowly" She said and Xpression slowly started to walk into the big room, trying not to be seen by anyone else then the people they were going to help.
Jubilee was about to go after but she stopped for a few seconds. Sure she had known they might be there but to actually see them…it just made everything around her freeze.
The X-men, along with all the memories and emotions, Jubilee sighed and looked around, she didn't have time to think about all that know, she needed to make sure that Xpression got the humans and themselves out of there and that they were safe.
"God how many people attend this stupid shit!" Sylvia said as she looked at all the petrified and hurt people around the big room.
"Apparently allot" Lily said. "And talk about a fight"
"What are you complaining about?" Sylvia asked and helped an old lady up from the floor. "Now you don't have to sit infront of the TV and drool"
"Whatever, we can't help all these people out if they keep fighting like this!" Lily said and watched as an X-man, she identified as Rogue, being thrown into a wall and went strait into the next room.
"But you heard miss. Lee" Cornelia said as she walked by helping a wounded man out. "No fighting unless we have to"
"Well we have to!" Lily said. "We don't have to fight them, just stop the fight so we can get all the people out"
"And how do we do that?" Sylvia asked.
"I got an idea, Shade get the man out then tell the team to come over here"
Shade did what Lily said and hurried the man out to Marisa and yelled for the team to come.
"What!" Alejandro asked. "If you haven't notes we are kinda busy!"
"We notes and we don't care!" Sylvia said back but before Alejandro could say anything Lily stepped between them.
"I have an idea and I think it might work, if everyone just listens" She said. "Now Magnum, try to gain control over as many fields of gravity around the Brotherhood and X-men and make them really heavy so they cant move, Trance and Songbird try to hypnotize the rest so they will stand still long enough so we can get the rest of the people out" She said and turned to Cornelia. "Shade you need to cover up most of the room with your shadow so police or anything else can get in or see anything, remember what Miss. Lee said about getting or faces in the paper"
"Genie you can use your teleportation to get the unconscious out and Moss make something grow to get the ones who can't walk out, Hacker, Radio, Electro and Rain will get the rest out and before we go Radio and Electro will destroy the light so no one can see us leave"
"When did you have time to think about this?" Sylvia asked.
"In battle class when Derek wanted us to think of a battle strategy, it wasn't just like this but almost"
"And you remembered that? Well anyway what are you going to do?"
"Get everyone's attention and help you, Electro, Rain and Radio"
"How are you going to get THEIR attention?" Shade asked nodding towards the X-men and the Brotherhood.
"Doing what I do best, scream" Lily said and took of towards the stage were the debate had been hold just an hours before. "When I scream you all go and do what I just said"
"Got ya!" Jessie said.
Lily jumped up on the stage and looked around for a second before she opened her mouth.
A very high pitch sound came out of her mouth making almost everyone in the room cover their ears or look towards her.
"Man that's horrible!" Trance said with her hands on her ears.
"We don't have time to care!" Magnum screamed over the noise coming from Mockingbird. "Just do it!"
He started to concentrate and soon he gained control over some of the closest gravity fields, making the people in them feel very heavy, and sense they still were to busy covering their ears they didn't have time to react. At the same time Trance attached whoever wasn't a telepath and made them stay completely still and Songbird started to sing softly doing the same thing.
"Their good" Derek said as he walked over to were Jubilee was standing.
"Yeah, just hope they know they can't hold Magneto down for long"
"They don't need to" Derek said with a smile.
Shade blended in with shadows in the corner of the room and covered everything she could and Genie and Moss was already getting the hurt and unconscious out.
Lily stopped screaming to catch her breath for a few seconds and that's when a load noise could be heard and the roof just disappeared, or so it seemed.
"Where are you taking me!" A terrified Professor Silverman asked as Magneto, who had wrapped a piece of metal around him, brought him up beside himself.
"He´s taking him!" Magnum yelled.
"Not your problem" Jubilee said calmly as she walked over to him. "Let the X-men go, if they want to go after him, let them"
Magnum, Trance and Songbird did what she had told them, although some of them had already gotten lose.
"Now get the rest of the people out and let´s go"
All the X-men were loose with their focus still on the Brotherhood that tried to get through Shade's shadow.
"Shade! Let them go!" Jubilee yelled and Shade did what she was told.
"Aww I wanted to pull them into the shadow with me" She said with a sarcastic sad voice but still with a smile on her face. If people went into the shadow with her it could lead to death.
"Moss and Genie has left the hurt so that the police can find them and Marisa had healed the ones who needed it" Griffin said. "But the police are talking about getting in"
"That means we´re of" Jubilee said. "Tell Electro to bring the van around"
The van also called the Xpress-van was a big van that had been redone so that it had all the things it would need to take the team out for a mission. They did have aircraft but sense they weren't going far it hadn't been needed.
"Jubilation?" A very familiar voice asked, and for a moment Jubilee really did not want to turn around. As she had been watching her team she had forgotten that the X-men were around. She had just been too proud of how they worked together to care.
At the same second Jubilee turned around to face her former team another voice was heard from across the room.
"Remy´s hurt!" Rouge´s voice yelled as she sat beside the lifeless body of Gambit.
All the X-men hurried over and Beast aka Hank McCoy had already started to look him over, Jubilee slowly fallowed and stopped right next to Jean and Kurt. This feels weird she thought but Jean and Kurt´s attention was on the bleeding body infront of them.
"He had very bad internal injuries, even if we manage to get him home…" Beast said trying to think of something to do.
"Just my luck" Jubilee sighed silently to herself. "Marisa!" She then yelled so load that the X-men couldn't help looking at her, she didn't meet their eyes though she looked over at Marisa as she came running across the building.
Marisa didn't say anything when she saw all the blood; she just looked at Jubilee who nodded. Marisa sat down beside Gambit and Rogue and put her hands on his body. She closed her eyes and started to heal whatever she could.
"What is she doing?" Scott Summers aka Cyclops asked.
"I believe the young lady is healing" Beast told him just as Marisa removed her hands and turned her head to Jubilee.
"I healed him enough so he wont die, but he still need medical attention" She said in a low voice.
"You did good Marisa" Jubilee told her and helped her up.
"Miss. Lee!" Amy called from the window she had teleported over to. "The police are coming in!"
To be honest Jubilee was happy that the cops were coming, because she really didn't know what to say to the X-men. She helped Marisa over to the rest of the team were Rain took her out to the Xpress-van.
"Come on Genie!" Jubilee called and Amy teleported herself to the others and they took of to the van.
"Are you okay?" Derek asked as Jubilee took her seat next to him.
"No" Jubilee said and looked out the window seeing the Blackbird take of.
"Are you mad?" Lily suddenly asked after they had gotten back to the school. Jubilee raised a brow and looked at her.
"What makes you say that?"
"Well we did use our powers against other mutants even though you told us to just get the people out"
"Well sometimes you have to bend rules, it would have been stupid of me to think that you wouldn't have to do anything to them" Jubilee sighed. "Well it´s been a long night but the dance is still on if you want to go" She added and turned to the group of students infront of her.
"I could dance some more" Jessie said.
"I think I´ll go to bed" Amy said.
"I need a shower" Marcus sighed.
"I´ll head back to my date" Cornelia said. "He said he would wait for me"
"Same here!" Jaimie added.
"I´ll go back if you want to?" Griffin asked Hacker.
"Sure!" Sylvia said with a smile.
"I´m not even tired" Jackson said. "I just have to change"
"I´m hungry" Justin sighed. "Want to get something to eat?" He asked Marisa.
"Yeah" Came a small answer from Marisa.
"I´m going back" Alejandro said. "Unless there was anything else?" he added and looked at Jubilee.
"No, go ahead and feel free to sleep all day tomorrow" She said with a smile. "Come on" She told Derek. "Casey is still watching Chris"
"You want to talk about it?" Derek asked after Casey had left and they had showered and changed.
"I don't know…I haven't seen them in such a long time and everything went so fast…I haven't had time to really think about it" Jubilee said and sat down on the bed. "I was 17 when I left them…that's 7 years…7 years without seeing them…no phone calls for 6 years, no letter for 5 years and no cards for 4 years"
"I know" Derek said and sat down next to her putting an arm around her shoulders. "I´m so sorry"
"It just feels so weird, I mean totally weird, I haven't felt that weird since…I can't even remember…"
"Just relax, you went away to collage one year early and drifted away from your old friends…it happens" he said and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "And these things go both way, it wasn't just you who stopped calling and writing"
"Guess your right, I just had to get away from there you know…no one cared or they did a very bad job at it, no one saw me and I can't stand when people don't see me"
"Don't I know that" Derek said with a smile.
"Sometimes I just wish things had gone different, I mean what if they hadn't sent me away to Generation X? And what if they had notes that I was at Bastions…What if they knew about the nightmares, the drugs and drinking…"
"That's one to many, what if´s"
"And then after the death of Angelo they forgot me again…I just couldn't go on living like that"
"I know baby, I know" Derek said and pulled her down on the bed with him and put the covers over them. "But nothing bad is going to happen just because they saw you tonight"
"They might come"
"Great we will show them around and invite them to dinner"
"Very funny"
"I know this is hard, but no matter what happened in the past; it is what you have now that counts"
Jubilee smiled and gave her fiancée a kiss on the lips.
"I love you"
"Love you to, now remember that.
