While up in the control room Amber had gathered a cheering squad. Only
loosing one member when she started to battle Remy. The Professor had
preactically given up trying to shush the group. Everytime given a few
seconds they had gotten louder again.
Angelo, Jono, Kelly, and Jubilee kept commenting on her fighting skills.
Once it was mentioned that they could have sold tickets. Raised eyebrows
from all members in the Command Room had shut Jubilee up pretty quick. Hank
smiled inwardly, ah the thoughts of youth. Chuckling he went back to
monetering the control panel which was monitoring everyone's power uses.
Ororro kept her eyes down toward the action takeing place in the room
below. In a few seconds Amber and Remy were going to have more comopany.
She looked over to the Professor, "She needs more training."
The Professor never replied to this but he did for a moment looked at
Ororro. With a nod he returned to studying his students thoughts. Ororro
smiled, with that nod it was almost certain that Amber was allowed to stay
with the team.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Remy had turned to face the three reptiles he had overlooked
something. None of the animals were always solid.. Hitting down with a
partially charged card had rewarded him with a yell and one less croc. He
was unprepared when a cat hit him from behind.
Amber wasn't feeling much better, with every hit she could feel her
control slipping. As her claws sunk into Remy's long coat she was glad he
hadn't noticed it when she had formed the calico hiding in a corner of the
roof. Amber's mind was quickly going through a list of posiens and other
agents she had at her discretion. Finally she had figured out the perfect
poision agent. He would have movement capabilities but no balance or
feeling. It would leave him mostly helpless. Drawing up enough strength,
she changes the saliva into the paralyzing agent.
Remy let out a string of french swear words when the cat bit his ear. He
through the cat towards the opposite side of the rooftop. Slowly he sank
down to his knees. And uncharged card dropped from his hand when he fell
forward. Clumisly he started to pull himself right side up. Not even
noticing the two crocidiles moving to help him turn over. Taking a deep
breath he watched the two crocs dissapear and be pulled back into Amber's
power. Amber wouldn't do something that would last long...would she? Soft
thoughts slipped into his fogged mind as she told him what she had done.
Closeing his eye's Remy just waited for the room to stop spinning.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Logan and Anne crept up to the top of the building while Scott and Jean
waited at the bottom. There would be no way for Amber to escape. Logan
checked on Rouge while Anne made sure Remy was going to be alright.
Mentally she told Jean and Scott what condintion the other two were in.
Rouge started to sit up and looked to be okay, Remy could barlly stand at
all. The world just didn't stop spinning.
Jean started doing a mental scan of the building and came up empty for
Amber's mind. "Scott she's has to be covering up her mind. I can't sense
her at all."
"Keep trying Jean. There has to be some way to find her mind and find the
way into her mind." Scott turned to his visor to a low setting. Looking up
he started to circle around the building.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amber sat in a corner trying to calm her fast breathing. She had to think
of something. Finally it dawned on her, Only Anne and possibly Jean could
tell a fake from a real mind. Of course all of her mental animals did have
some of there own thoughts. Slowly she started to get up and went back down
to her knees clutching her head. She had inadvertly swallowed some of the
posioning agent when Remy had throwen her. All of this was slowly
overpowering her healing.
Catching her breath she knew she didn't have much time. Jean and Anne
started working together and were breaking their way through her mental
shields. Narrowing her eyes she scanned the room. A small rock caught her
attention, picking it up she judged it's weight. A bit light but anything
falling or thrown fast enough would have to hurt.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Going through with a mental link Logan and Jean moved carefully through
the building. Anne had moved to a different part of the cieling. She kept
watch on two walls while Scott kept an eye on the other two. Anne started
to turn when she heard growling behind her. Two very large feline were
padding towards her. Narrowing her eyes she made a whip. If Amber wanted to
fight with mental figures...so would she.
The panther made a half of her leap before being hit by the whip. The
lioness then leaped she managed to hit Anne back and closer to the edge.
Both cats retreated back and allowed Anne to regain her footing. Where
would be the fun with out a little cat and mouse play? Anne smiled when the
two cats flickered. Amber was getting tired and it was starting to show.
