Prelude To A Kiss



The talk had gone well, Thornn explained to Havok how she was forced to kill her sister and Havok understood, and gave her a spot on the roster. Wolfsbane joined the team the ranks swelled. Currently Wolfsbane is sleeping. She lies on her new bed, covered in sweat from a nightmare no one will ever know of. Because Locus lies in wait. After the meeting was dismissed, Locus talked to Reignfire, who gave her explicit orders and instructed her to wait until she heard the sign. The sign was hell breaking loose in Valhalla. And in two minutes, that is exactly what would happen.

Tempo and Multiple Man are playing cards. "So, now that your on our side, I guess it makes you on the market."

Tempo throws down a card and draws one. "On the Market?"

Madrox draws, "Yeah, your available. I can ask you out right?"

Tempo puts all her cards down. "Gin. Jamie, I want you to understand I just lost my husband recently and am not looking to get involved in anything."

Suddenly the floor beneath them erupted. The two were flung backwards and in the table's place stood the MLF! "Now dear, that is a sad story indeed. How about we take you home and put you in bed, and take care of you? OR HOW ABOUT YOU PUT UP A FIGHT AND WE SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS RIGHT HERE?"

Wildside smiled viciously, claws raised. "Now, Wildside, boss wants her in one piece. Now do like I do and put this chump Multiple Man down in the ground."

Forearm advanced on the downed Madrox, who scrabbled just in time to hit the alarm. Tempo jumped into action and slowed Forearm down while Polaris burst into the room and held Wildside back.

Meanwhile Wolfsbane suddenly awakens to the sound of the alarm and looks towards the door. Sadly that is the last sight she glimpses, as Locus teleports behind her and slices her throat. "Even if your friends win today, the price has been paid. You will never don an X-Terminators uniform girlie. I bet you regret stepping on that plane from Ireland and flying your ass all the way over here don't you?"

Adam X springs into his gear and runs down the hall only to be blasted into the control room. Moving through a pile of rubble he stands to face the imposing visage of Reignfire. "Hello Adam. I am Reignfire. I wish to speak with you."

Adam slides beneath him and throws a dagger that deflects off his armor and bounces to the floor. "Now, now. Behave little one. I am going to offer you a chance to join my illustrious Mutant Liberation Front. You of all people should be interested. You have been cut off from your heritage for so long. Let me be your guide."

Adam looks up and spits in the Mutants face, "Let me tell you something scum, I have seen things you and your wretched team of mutants can only dream of. If you only knew the histories of thousands of planets, who's people thought they were superior, then you would feel foolish for leading this group against humanity. Every time I have seen something bigger and badder and stronger come along and kill the weaker. You are just as low on the Evolutionary Scale as I am. I however, know what side will win. And that is my side. So if you think you can sway me with words, you are mistaken. I wouldn't join you for the whole Shiar galaxy. Now heel dog!"

Adam X dove and rolled all while pulling forth a sword from his back and embedding it into the leg of Reignfire. "Puny mutant, do you think that will stop me?"

Adam smiles, "Well, no but this will." With that his powers kick in and Reignfire screams in pain as the electrolytes in his blood burn in a fiery rage, sending the mutant to his knees. "You….w.w.w.iii.lll..n..ot…de..f…e..a..tt..m…e!"

"I think I just did." Adam slugs the mutant and Reignfire falls to the ground.
