"So, are you going to Jerry's party on Saturday?" A guard asked the one next to him as they stood outside a tall metal building. It was unusual for there to be any activity around the compound that required any notice. Most of the time the guards stood around for eight hours before switching or going home. None of them had any encounters with anyone trying to break into the facility.
"That loser? Hell no." The second guard said and leaned against the wall. He looked over at his friend and yawned. "I am thinking of switching jobs. I mean the pay here is great and all, but it is useless."
"Ya got that right." Rogue said from above and lifted both guards by the back of their jackets. Iceman came out from behind a metal waste can he had been hiding behind and froze the guards in a ice block.
"I'm too cool." Iceman folded his arms over his chest and looked over at his teammates.
"You are too much of a freak." Jubilee sang as she walked passed him and over to Rogue. The others came out of hiding and waited for Shadowcat to go through the wall and make sure the coast was clear.
"If this mission goes good, does that mean we get less Danger Room time?" Iceman asked Storm, who was ignoring him. Since they had left the jet and separated from the other team, he and some of the others had been asking pointless questions that had nothing to do with the mission.
"We're good." Shadowcat reappeared and gave the thumbs up. She started phasing her teammates through the wall.
"If this mission goes good, it means we need to train more to make sure it goes great next time." Storm replied before taking Shadowcat's hand and phasing through the wall.
Iceman grumbled about how they were overworked already. "Did ya expect her ta say anythin' else?" Rogue asked him before Shadowcat returned for them.
"Well I though it couldn't hurt." Iceman shrugged before they entered the building.
The group walked down the hallway, engaging against guards they found. "Okay, this isn't going to get us anywhere." Polaris sighed as they continued walking trying to find the room. A guard began shooting at them and she used her powers to lift the gun above his head. "Colossus, beat the crap out of him until he tells us where the control room is."
"That's a little more affective." Rogue commented as the metal armored mutant approached the guard who was backing away from him. Colossus reached down and grabbed the man by his shoulders and banged him against the wall.
"Where is the control room?" Colossus asked calmly. The others came on either side of him to show that there would be no escape.
"I don't know what you're talking about." The guard played stupid.
"Can I hit him?" Shadowcat asked Storm.
"We do not promote violence, unless it is necessary. Unfortunately for our friend he does not wish to share the information we need. In this case, go ahead." Storm told her and watched the man's face turn pale.
"It's down the hall, second room to the right!" The guard shrieked and Colossus let him go.
"Thanks!" Jubilee waved to the guard before following the others. The group made it down the hallway and broke into the control room.
"Hey, you're not allowed-" A man said as he got up from his chair in front of a bunch of monitors and stopped when Rogue punched him.
Storm immediately went over to the monitors as Piotr and Iceman guarded the door. "There is one prisoner in here it shows." Storm announced and turned to her team. "Iceman and Polaris, I'm going to send you two to find the prisoner and help them escape. Shadowcat, you will destroy all the computers in here. Rogue, Colossus, and Jubilee will keep watch here. I will try to communicate with Cyclops and find out where his team is located."Storm ordered.
Outside
Cyclops' group stood by the trees watching guards pace back and forth in front of the entrance. "Okay team, we're going to find the. . . can you put those away." Cyclops glared at Gambit through his visor as the younger mutant shuffled a deck of cards in his hands.
"I'm listenin', not my fault you can't multi-task, mon ami." Gambit smirked and shuffled the deck just to tick Cyclops off for good measures. He didn't want to be on this team and he was going to let Cyclops know it.
"I can cut his hand off." Deadpool suggested, causing Gambit to step closer to Psylocke and Chamber.
"No." Cyclops glared at the mercenary and turned back to the base and pointed at it. "We're going to take out the guards stationed at the sides and in the front. Cannonball will go up high and report what he sees. Psylocke and I will go around the other side and make sure the coast is clear. Chamber and Gambit will make sure any security cameras are cut. Wolverine and Deadpool will handle any guards that come our way." Cyclops announced to them and turned back around. "Any questions." He frowned.
Psylocke stood with her arms folded over her purple uniform and looked over at Chamber who shrugged. They were the only ones left besides Cannonball. I'm sure it would have been a good plan. Chamber told him with a shrug.
"Yeah, Ah'm sure we could use it next time Mr. Sum-Cyclops." Cannonball told him after correcting himself. It was hard to remember when to go by codenames and not.
"Where are they?" Cyclops teeth grounded together. They were supposed to be a team and work as one. Not go running off whenever they felt like it. 'They are going to pay later for this.' He made a mental note.
"Well Gambit said he didn't want to take orders from you and left. Wolverine said you talked too much and he could have been inside by now. Deadpool said he wanted to kill something and ran off and frankly, I am relieved." Psylocke reported to Cyclops who sighed.
"Great. Well, let's just blast our way in and anyone in it." Cyclops told his team.
Wolverine sliced off the barrel of the gun pointed at him and stabbed the guard with his other set of claws. He raced through the hallway catching the scent of a few people in the next room. He crept closely and listened in to what they were saying.
"What do you mean it is only ninety-five percent complete? I don't care if the damn thing falls apart, get it moving and hunt down Weapon X now!" Colcord said from inside the meeting room to Dr. Cornelius and some of the other scientists.
Wolverine let out a low growl and kicked the door open, startling the small group. "You said we were secured!" One of the scientist yelled and made a run for the back door. Colcord and two guards each took out a gun and began shooting at Wolverine to no end. The mutant took each shot as if it was nothing. He ran at the guards and cut down each one at a time before turning to find Colcord behind Dr. Cornelius.
"We finally get to meet face to face, Weapon X." Dr. Cornelius smiled at Wolverine and snarled at him when Colcord shot him in the head.
"That ain't my name, bub and ya ain't gonna have time ta learn it after I'm done with ya." Wolverine menacingly stalked the two men who began moving away from him slowly.
"I remember attending the procedure done on you. Stryker was quite proud and confident that it would work on you. He was right, the adamantium bonded to your bones quite nicely. If only he had been able to finish what he wanted with you before you went berserk." Dr. Cornelius explained and Colcord reloaded his gun.
"I was one of the many victims." The scared man snarled and aimed his gun at Wolverine's head. "We were order to make sure you didn't escape. You killed the other guards and slashed my face." Colcord glared at Wolverine.
"Looks good on ya. I'll be adding a matching set." Wolverine raised his claws.
"Wait, we can tell you anything you want to know. About who you were and where you grew up. We know all about you." Dr. Cornelius tried to bribe the mutant.
"Not interested in your lies. Ya the ones that have been sendin' people ta capture or kill me. I'm getting' sick of it and lookin' at ya." Wolverine snarled before lunging at Dr. Cornelius and slashed him across the middle as Colcord shot him in the head again.
"You are nothing but an animal. You are just like your brother, no matter how much you try to deny it." Colcord snarled and backed into the wall and continued to shoot.
Wolverine stopped for a moment. 'Brother?' He thought to himself. He had recovered a memory of him and another boy who called him his brother. A part of him wanted to know more, but the other knew this man wanted him dead more than anything. All he wanted to do was save himself which was something Wolverine was not going to allow.
"I ain't one, ya are the ones that are the animals. Ya are too scared ta fight me without puttin' someone else in front of ya or havin' ta use a weapon." Wolverine retracted his claws. "I'll even give ya a chance to fight me fairly so ya can get some kind of revenge ya think ya deserve."
Colcord dropped the gun to his side and eyes Wolverine as the mutant circled him. He reached to the inside of his pocket and felt a Swiss army knife. He went to punch Wolverine with one hand, landing on the mutant's chest. With his other hand, he unhinged the knife and stuck it in Wolverine's neck. Before he could even move, he heard Wolverine unsheathed his claws and gut him.
"I gave ya a chance ta show your honor, just shows ya don't have any." Wolverine snarled before the Director slid off his claws and down to the ground.
Prisoner Area
"This is it." Iceman said as they stood back and Polaris used her powers to rip off the door to the prison area. The two walked into the cell area and found it mostly empty with the exception of one cell occupied.
"Hey, we're getting you out of here." Iceman told the person who was sleeping on a mattress. He could see it was a woman with blondish white hair and skin looked deformed, almost as if it had been turned inside out. Her face was wrinkled and so was the skin on her arms. "Do you need some help?" He asked as Polaris opened the cell and woman shot up and stared at them.
"Have you come to get me? Are they ready to begin again?" The woman sat on the edge of the bed. Polaris looked at Iceman who didn't know what to say. They never thought they would have this reaction from a prisoner.
"We're here to rescue you from Weapon X." Polaris tried to explain to the woman, but she only glared at them.
"Why? I work here. I've worked here for twenty six years. They closed down my project and said that I could work on mutants with Weapon X." The woman hissed at them.
"Well, Weapon X is being shut down at the moment. So either move or be crushed, it's up to you." Iceman told the woman before he and Polaris left. They were not going to argue with the woman if she didn't want to leave. They left the door open if she wanted to follow.
"I got a weird vibe from her, but it almost seemed familiar." Iceman told Polaris as they left the area and went back to the control area where the other group was at.
"How so?" Polaris asked him as they walked down the metal hallway.
"I felt the same thing a few weeks ago when. . . never mind. It's probably nothing." Iceman shook his head and they walked down the corridor.
A guard had his gun pointed at Wolverine as the feral mutant went along knocking out the guards that got in his path after he exited the meeting room. The guard was about to pull the trigger when he felt a cold metal substance against his neck. "Now that's not nice shooting him when he's not looking." Deadpool said from behind him and then the man turned around and shot him in the chest.
"Stay where you are, freak!" The guard yelled and had the gun trained on him. Deadpool looked down at where he had been shot and shook his head.
"You know I was just being polite and figured you might have wanted to take Wolverine on face to face, but," Deadpool sliced the guards arm that was holding the gun. The man screamed in pain and clutched his heavily bleeding arm. "I'll just play with you." He held the other sword underneath the man's neck.
"Please, don't kill me." The guard plead to Deadpool, who tilted his head and looked down at the guard.
"Ew, did you just wet yourself? Dude that is not cool! I wasn't really going to kill you, it was just for show." Deadpool took the sword away from the man's neck. The guard sighed in relief and felt tears of joy come to his eyes.
"Nah, I was just kidding, I'm going to kill you." Deadpool laughed before he pulled out his gun and shot the guard in the head.
Polaris and Iceman caught up with the rest of the team that were waiting for them outside the control room. "What happened to the prisoner?" Storm asked them.
"She didn't want to be rescued." Iceman told her. He looked over and saw Jubilee blowing bubbles with her gum and tapping her foot which was starting to get on Colossus and Shadowcat nerves.
"There are more people in the main lab." Storm gathered the group around as she showed them the layout of the Weapon X facility they found in the other room. "This is where Cyclops team should be though they have split up from what he told me." Storm reported to them, catching Jubilee and Rogue's attention.
"What do ya mean they split up? Ah thought the two teams were supposed to stay tagether." Rogue asked Storm, feeling nervous about something happening to Gambit.
"Cyclops told me before they entered the building, Wolverine, Deadpool, and Gambit left the team and went in by themselves. He had been trying to contact them, but no one is answering." Storm told the young girl.
"Is Chamber alright?" Jubilee asked Storm as they began walking down the hallway.
"He said that everyone else was with him and fine. They've haven't encountered anything yet, mostly whoever had been in Wolverine and Deadpool's way." Storm said to Jubilee as they rounded the corner and were about to go through double doors to the main lab. Two guards standing outside the lab stood in front and then aimed their guns at them.
Polaris raised her hand and the guns floated out of their hands and into the air above them. She twisted them into a knot and then dropped them at the guard's feet. Colossus quickly got rid of the guards. Before the entered the lab area, Polaris placed a hand on Rogue's shoulder. "He'll be alright." She tried to reassure the other girl.
"Ah hope so. That boy likes lookin' for trouble." Rogue said. She knew that Gambit would be fine by himself and could handle anything thrown at him. but she heard this nagging little voice in the back of her mind saying it wouldn't be.
"Nice welcome party." Jubilee whispered to Shadowcat as ten more guards surrounded the group and the scientists down below heard the noise and began to scatter.
"Freeze mutants." One of the guards said to the team. Iceman began snickering as his body turned into ice form.
"Is this good enough for you?" Iceman asked and put his arms out. Storm rolled her eyes and shook her head. Cyclops team may have split up and not worked well as a group, but at least they took the mission more serious than her group.
Iceman blasted ice beams at three of the soldiers, while Jubilee sent fireworks at two others blinding them. Colossus ran at two other guards who started shooting at his metal form, only to have it bounce off. He swung his fist knocking them out.
"We are having a major problem, the mutants-" One of the guards began to call for back up when Rogue hit him into a wall. She picked up two other guards who were aiming at Jubilee and carried them into the air.
"That ain't bein' a gentleman. Ya don't hit a lady!" Rogue told them before throwing them into equipment in the lab.
"Activate it!' One of the scientist ordered to a lady in a white coat. She looked hesitantly at Predator X.
"It's not ready yet." She told the scientist who ended up shoving her out of the way and started typing a sequence into the computer. The lights in the room dimmed and the containment tube in the back lit up.
The creature inside the tube began to stir and it's bright white eyes opened. A soft growl was heard from inside and the scientist began backing away and into the X-men that surrounded them.
"Um, I don't like the looks of that." Shadowcat commented to the others.
Gambit kicked out the vent he had been climbing through and jumped down to the floor. He looked to both his sides and found no guards. 'Now, where would dey be hidin'?' He thought to himself as he began checking some of the offices.
"Gambit, Wolverine, come in!" He heard Cyclops shout from the communication badge he was given before the mission. He grabbed the small device that was in the shape of an X and turned the volume down low. The last thing he needed was the fearless leader yelling at him and alerting the guards.
He wandered down the hallway and finally found Colcord's office and opened it. No one was inside and he was figuring the man was being distracted by Storm's team or perhaps Wolverine was having another go at him. He shut the door behind him and went over to the cabinets and began pulling out any documents and destroying them.
Most of them were files that had been recovered from Stryker's days in Weapon X. After a little bit, he didn't bother to even read the files and just destroyed them. He quickly stopped however when the door knob began to turn. He found a spot behind the door and hid as the door opened.
"Sir, I wanted to. . .figures." He heard Robert Windsor and his eyes narrowed. He wouldn't tell Rogue or the others, but he had been having nightmares about what the man had done to him in his short care.
Gambit reached into his pocket and grabbed his bo staff and extended it. Windsor looked in shock as the staff was slammed into his head without warning. The older man fell to the ground with a small wound to his head. "Let's see how y' do when de mutant isn't tied down." He snarled and held the staff underneath the man's chin.
Windsor didn't look intimidated, he only stared up at Gambit as if he was observing him. "I don't know why I didn't notice this before, you really do look like her." He said.
"Don't know what kind of gibberish y' talkin', homme, but it's not gonna be for long." Gambit muttered as his eyes glowed red and the staff began to charge and heat up underneath his fingertips.
"I know about the group you joined, they don't kill." Windsor stared back at Gambit, trying to ignore the pain of the burning metal near him.
"Never officially joined dem, so dose rules don't apply to me." Gambit smirked down at the older man as he was now looking a bit scared.
"Gambit, Wolverine, come in! We need you down in the main lab. We have run into a problem!" He heard Storm's voice say softly from the badge. He looked down at the badge and then at Windsor trying to decide what to do. He knew he had to help them, especially since Rogue was with Storm's team, but at the same time he didn't want to let the man get away.
"What's it going to be, boy." Windsor began antagonizing him. Gambit narrowed his eyes and was about to smack the man with his staff again when he heard more yelling from the badge.
"Y' better hope we don't cross paths again, mon brave. De next time y' won't be walkin' away." Gambit snarled at him before taking off down the hall to find the main lab.
"What is that thing?" Rogue asked Storm as Predator X smashed his massive green clawed hand through the glass and detaching the wires on its body. The giant beast let out a roar when it finally broke free and narrowed its eyes at the mutants before it.
"I have no idea, child." Storm whispered and took a step back.
"This is why you don't flush gators down the toilet!" Iceman stated and nudged Rogue. "That or maybe he's a friend of Gambit's, I'm sure there are a bunch them from where he's at." He said trying to lighten the mood. Rogue only glared at him.
"This is not the time for jokes." Storm told Iceman and took off for the sky. The creature took swipes at any one that came near it.
Rogue flew at the creature and punched it, only to have it not seem affected. The creature grabbed her, scrapping her arm with its long claws and threw her away from it. Rogue hit a table and fell over on the other side of it. She looked down and saw her wound already beginning to close and got up.
"Hey, Godzilla, over here!" Jubilee yelled and sent a stream of fireworks at Predator X who howled in rage from being temporary blind. It made its way over to Jubilee and Storm sent a lightning bolt at the creature, but it didn't seem to have any affect.
"Crap, it's got a healing factor!" ShadowCat yelled to the others as she saw a small cut on the creature heal. Colossus ran at the creature and tried to get it away from the girls. It's claws tried to scratch the mutant, but had not affect due to the metal armor. It glared at Colossus as it started pushing the big mutant backwards.
"Stand back!" He heard Cyclops yell before letting the creature go and a optic blast hit Predator X. The creature cried out in pain and hit the containment tube it had been born in. Glass shattered around it and stuck into the creature's skin.
Predator X got up and it's wounds began to heal. It snarled at the group right before Psylocke jumped on its shoulders and drove her blade through its skull. She quickly got off the creature before Chamber let out a psionic blast by lowering his scarf.
"It's not working." Storm told Cyclops. "it has a healing factor and it seems more sped up than Wolverines."
"Come on, let's see how it likes heights." Rogue told Cannonball and the two flew at Predator X. it took a swing at them with its horned tail, but missed. Rogue grabbed the beast by its shoulders and Cannonball grabbed the legs. They flew into the air and dropped it hard into another containment tube, breaking it.
"Did that work?" Cannonball asked Rogue, who floated next to him. they looked down as a huge shard of glass impaled Predator X. the creature howled in pain before standing up and taking the glass out.
"Now he is pissin' me off. There's gotta be some weakness." Rogue growled before she dodged out of the way when Predator X jumped at them. It hit Cannonball and sent him to the ground head first.
"Sam!" Polaris shouted and ran to the blond side, followed by Cyclops.
"We got to get him out of here." Cyclops said and looked around. They needed two people to bring Cannonball back to the jet, but at the moment couldn't afford to lose anyone.
Predator X snarled as Iceman, Jubilee, and Chamber kept shooting their powers at it and Psylocke would stab it every chance she got. Rogue ripped a metal desk from out of the ground and threw it at the creature.
"Hey princess, over here!" Deadpool shouted and shot the creature with his guns and kept shooting as it made its way over to him. The creature healed within seconds of being shot and Deadpool lowered his weapons. "Aw, you're not really a bad lizard are you, you just got anger issues. I wonder whose DNA they put into you." Deadpool said as the creature stood face to face with him.
"Whose an ugly little lizard, you are." Deadpool rubbed its chin and it bit his right arm off. Deadpool narrowed his eyes from behind his mask. "Hey! I need that!" The mercenary yelled as the creature hit him with its tail. It swallowed Deadpools arm and turned its attention back to the X-Men.
Rogue landed near Jubilee and Shadowcat. "Great, now what?" Rogue muttered as the creature stalked its way over.
"Y' tellin' me after all de things y' gone against, y' can't handle a little lizard." Gambit asked from behind them. Rogue turned and hugged her boyfriend briefly.
"If ya think ya can do better, let's see it." Rogue told him. Gambit smirked and flicked his pack of cards from one hand to the other.
"And what do I get if I beat it?" Gambit asked her. Jubilee and Shadowcat rolled their eyes.
"Just throw the cards, Gumbo! The stupid thing won't die." Jubilee said and stood back as Predator X took a swing at them. The four mutants dodged out of the way.
Gambit took three cards in his hand and charged them before throwing them at Predator X. the cards exploded on impact and the creature howled in pain before once again repairing the damage done. "Not so easy, is it?" Shadowcat muttered to Gambit.
"Three cards, little damage. Let's see how he does with a game of fifty-two card pick up." Gambit shuffled the cards into one hand and began to charge it. He waited until the creature to get near to throw the cards, but didn't get a chance. Wolverine pounced on the creature from behind and dug his claws into its skull. "No one invited y'."
"Better than standin' around and lookin' pretty. Leave this guy for me, it takes a real man to beat him." Wolverine told Gambit, who glared at him.
"Can't they get along for two minutes?" Polaris asked Rogue after she was done checking on Cannonball.
"Ah'll work on it when we get home." Rogue winked at Polaris and watched as Wolverine was thrown off the creature and Gambit threw the cards at it. the deck of cards had more affect this time and creature a giant hole in Predator X, but it's healing capabilities took care of any injury.
Wolverine growled and retracted his claws. He had an idea that could work or it could blow up in his face. "Hey!" He got in front of the creature and started antagonizing it. he dodged as it took swings at him with its claws.
"Logan, we're going to have Bobby freeze it!" Shadowcat yelled as Iceman stood next to her. Wolverine turned and looked at them before Predator X grabbed him in its arms. It's hot smelly breath blew into his face as he looked at its teeth and the drools hanging off of them.
"Ever brush those." Wolverine asked before the creature ate him.
"Holy shit." Jubilee's mouth hung up and Shadowcat's eyes went wide.
"Wolvie? That thing ate Wolvie!" Shadowcat cried.
"Dat creature is gonna die of heart burn." Gambit said to himself, only be to elbowed by Rogue.
"Hey, Logan! If you see my arm in there, can you hold onto it when he poops you out!" Deadpool yelled at the creature.
Predator X snarled and looked over at the young mutants, who were upset. It took five steps before it stopped. Three metal claws appeared through its stomach and cut upward. The creature howled one last time before it fell dead, finally.
"Wolvie!" Shadowcat and Jubilee ran to Wolverine's side and hugged him. "Don't try that again!" Jubilee told him and pointed a finger at him. "Also, maybe take a shower before we get back on the jet, you kinda smell."
"Told y' he digests bad." Gambit whispered to Rogue.
"Why didn't we try that before?" Iceman asked the others and looked down at the dead experiment. "It was so easy to kill, we were just doing it the wrong way. We had to kill it from the inside."
Next time there is an unstoppable creature, we'll have you try it. Chamber told him.
"We need to get Cannonball back. Colossus would you please carry him. he has a small cut on his head and hasn't woken up yet." Cyclops ordered as the group gathered around them.
"Is this it? No more Weapon X?" Rogue asked the two leaders.
"I took out a bunch of scientists and the director of this. Hopefully there is none left." Wolverine told the ground as he continued to wipe away the slim from Predator X off.
"There's still that lady in the cell area that said she worked here, but I think she was right in the head." Polaris told Cyclops. She hoped he was not going to send them back down there to drag the woman out. Not only was her appearance disturbing, but so was her personality. 'Maybe that's from living here.' She thought to herself.
"All the equipment has been destroyed, so there is no reason to stay. The guards are either taken out or ran off. The prisoner can leave when she wants to, we cannot force her to come." Cyclops told the group before they started walking out of the buildings.
"Now we can finally relax. All these stupid bad guys are gone." Jubilee sighed and leaned her head on Chamber's shoulder as they walked.
"I am afraid not, luv. We still need to find the Professor." Psylocke told the young girl.
"Damnit!" Jubilee cursed.
Deadpool stayed behind and dug through Predator X looking for his arm. "There you are. Now just twist and turn there." He said as he reattached his arm and flex his hand when it was on.
"Guys?" He looked around and found no one in the room except himself. "Nice team you guys are, leaving a teammate to die in the cold. I'm sure they do this often." He muttered and picked up his swords and twirled it around.
"Now what am I going to do?" Deadpool folded his arms over his felt his phone vibrate. He opened it to see the text message sent to him. "Sweet! I am out of here. See you readers later!"
End of Chapter 25
Sorry for the chapter, I hate writing fight scenes and they hate me.
Sneak Peak: Assassins and Thieves
"Gambit, a blond woman is here to see you. She didn't tell me her name, but said you would know her. She's in the dining room waiting." Angel told Gambit who looked over at Rogue.
"Anythin' else y' can tell me about her?" He asked the once feathery mutant.
"She seemed very anxious to see you. She said it's been years." Angel added.
Remy opened the door and stared in shock at the woman standing with her arms cross and a pleasant smile on her face. "Mon dieu." He whispered as a small smile crept on his face.
"Who is that?" Jubilee asked Rogue quietly as Remy went to greet his guest.
"I don't know." Rogue whispered as Remy hugged the blond woman.
