"Son of a Bitch!" Mike Nagrite swore under his breath as he emerged from the pile of ruble. His healing factor was already repairing the damage his body took from the exploding bomb. As it descended, he grabbed a chunk of concrete and threw it at the descending bomb, blowing it up before it could reach its target. As he did this, Lance surrounded himself and the others with an earthen shield. Mike wasn't so lucky though. "Man this hurts like a Bitch." He thought as he pulled a metal pole from his side. A loud rumbling signaled the return of his comrades.
"Mike you alright?" Todd asked as he hopped out of the earthen ball.
"Yea. I'm fine." Mike said as he watched his wound heal. "You guys ok? I mean it took you long enough to get back up here."
"We were checking out the rest of the continent." Kitty replied as she pulled out a cigarette. John tossed her his Zippo. "The entire fucking place has been bombed." She said as she tried to light up. Lance grabbed the cigarette from her mouth and threw it to the ground. She shot him a dirty look.
"The survivors are being transported to China so they can be culled." Pyro continued as he got his lighter back from Shadowcat.
"There's more." Toad said. "I caught a glimpse of Sinister at the transport station. If one of the big A's chosen is here, then there has to be another motive than just plain culling's.
"Toad's right." Mystique said. "There's definitely is something deeper here than what we're seeing."
"The Nukes." Tabitha stated suddenly. "The Son of a Crack Hore is after the Nuclear War-heads."
"What?" Mystique asked, obviously confused at Tabitha's statements.
"A few years ago the Eurasian High command hid all active nuclear War-heads here in Australia." Pyro explained.
"And in case of another Genetic War, all the Nukes would be launched at tactical locations in America. They hid the bombs here because Apocalypse wouldn't expect the attack to come from a "peaceful' nation." Tabitha continued.
"So they're here to get the bombs?" Mystique asked, getting the picture.
"Most likely." Pyro replied. "With those, Apocalypse won't have to worry to much about the human's being a threat.
"So what's the plan Boss-Man?" Mike asked, turning to Lance.
"First of all," He said turning to Mystique. "Mystique, Magnus is in Germany, the Dead-Zones. Get to him and tell him exactly what happened." Lance said.
"Got it." Mystique said as she ran toward her speeder and took off.
"You guys in the mood to unhorse the Horseman?" Lance asked the others, raising his eyebrow.
"In the immortal words of General Patton, "Let's go kill those some-bitches."" Todd said, punching his fist.

Australia, Base of operations for Apocalypses forces.
"Damn Madri." Alex Summers said under his breath. "Apocalypses priests take up to much Fucking time." The Madri consisted of mutants, genetically enhanced to serve as Apocalypses personal holy men. They preached the word of the Dark Lord, "Survival of the Fit." The Madri reported to no one but the Dark Lord himself.
"You may pass now, Prelate Summers." One of the Madri said as they left the room.
"About fucking time." Alex muttered as he walked into the control room. He spotted Lorna "Polaris" Dane standing over a computer. He walked up behind her and grabbed her butt.
"Hey lover." She said as she turned around and started kissing him.
"Here?" He asked with a hint of pleasure in his voice.
"Here." She stated as she took of her shirt.

Outside
"You hear that?" One of the Infinite guards asked his comrade. He never got a response as Toad landed on the two of them, breaking their necks.
"All clear." He shouted. The brotherhood emerged from the shadows.
"Omega, take the Watchtower." Lance ordered. Michael Nagrite responded by unleashing his tendricals and running toward the complex. He entered the complex and soon a barrage of gunfire, and energy blasts was heard, then they stopped suddenly.
"I think he took it." Meltdown exclaimed as the saw an Infinite guard go flying through the wall.
"No one likes a smart ass, petite." Gambit stated as he charged up a playing card and threw it over her head, blowing a hole in the chest of a Madri that had tried to sneak up on her.
"I do." Pyro stated as he gave Tabitha a smile. She returned it as Lance gave another order.
"Alright people, lets move!" He shouted as they all moved into the complex. When they got there they saw Omega finishing of the guards.
"Ow. That is going to leave a mark." Todd winced as he heard the sound of omega's fist crashing against genetically enhanced mutant armor.
"That's gonna bruise." Tabitha stated as she saw Omega deliver a roundhouse kick that snapped a Madri's back.
"Well, where the hell where you guys." Mike said as he snapped the last Infinites neck with a tendrical. "I've been bored out of my mind."
"I can see that." Gambit stated as he looked around at the chaos his teammate had created. "And all I can say is...ouch!"
"You know Cajun, you can be a real asshole at times."
"Oui." Gambit replied with a smile. An energy pulse that blazed above them interrupted any further conversation.
"You missed lover." Lorna Dane stated as she hovered in mid-air, next to Havoc. His body pulsed with cosmic energy.
"I went for Drama." Alex stated as he unleashed another wave of energy. The Brotherhood scattered away from the concussion force the blast generated.
"Now Alex, what have I taught you about Drama?" Sinister said as he walked up behind them. "It only works if you're not expected." Sinister said with a twisted smile as he unleashed his own form of bio-energy. The blast slammed into Toad and sent him flying.
"TODD!" Omega screamed as he launched himself at Sinister. "I my not like the little Slime-Ball that much, but I hate you even more." He said as he slammed his fists into Sinister's face.
"Eat fire, Mother Fucker!" Pyro yelled as he launched a wall of fire toward Polaris. She held up a hand and sent a magnetic blast to dissipate the flame. "Oh, shit…" Pyro muttered as he was sent into a wall.
"JOHN!" Tabitha shouted. "You'll pay for that Bitch." She shouted as she began to throw Time Bombs at a rapid-fire rate at Polaris.
"Ahhh!" Polaris shouted as she was sent into a wall, which promptly collapsed.
"So we meet again Alvers." Havoc spat. "I always wanted a rematch from our last confrontation. "Back when you still ran with Magnus that is."
"I left the old goat for a reason." Lance said as the air around him began to pulse with seismic energy. "He couldn't keep up with me." He said with a smirk as he let loose a pulse of seismic energy that tore through the air. Havoc barely avoided the blast as it crashed it into a wall. Before Havoc could react, another blast of seismic energy slammed into him, breaking several of his ribs. He went flying and landed right next to a teleportation pod.
"Alex!" Sinister shouted as he grabbed Mike and sent him barreling into a support beam. He ran over to his fallen 'son'. Lorna flew there as well. But before anyone could react Sinister grabbed Lorna and Alex and shoved them into the teleportation pod and activated it. "Sorry son. But you're sitting this one out." Sinister said as they telported away. He turned to face the Brotherhood. The Toad had recovered and was in the forefront of them.
"Lance, get out of here and take this place down." Todd said. "Me, Mike, and Pyro can deal with this chump."
"Right. God speed little buddy." Lance said as the others took off. Tabitha stayed for a split second and planted a quick kiss on Pyro's lips before she ran off after the others.
"Bring him back, Mike." She called out.
"No prob. Tab's. No prob." Mike said as he took of his leather trench coat and unleashed his tendricals. Pyro took of his torn red trench coat and pulled out his Zippo and lit it. Todd began to build up momentum as Sinister gathered energy. "Let's dance you ugly Bitch."
"We'll see whose ugly after this, won't we "Omega"?" Sinister replied as he unleashed his energy. The fight was on.

Human Holding Pens
"Anyone want out?" Lance said as he emerged from the smoke. The cheers of the trapped humans gave him the answer. "Tab's?"
"On it." She stated as she blew the cage doors open. Soon streams of people were flooding out the doors and to freedom. "Well that looks like a job well done." Tabitha said with a smile. She was interrupted when Todd came flying through the wall.
"Todd!" Kitty exclaimed as she ran toward the fallen frog. "Are you ok?"
"He's alive." Gambit stated. "But this homme be knocked out cold." He slung Todd over his shoulder.
"Where are you going, Cajun!" Tabitha shouted. "John and Mike are probably in trouble as well!"
"They can take care of themselves, petite. But we need to get these humans out of here, before this place blows." As he said this, Shadowcat walked over to a control panel and Phased through it.
"There, all the locks are disarmed, we can get out of here fairly easy now." She said as she began to lead the humans out of the hell they were in.
"Meltdown where in the hell do you think you're going?" Lance shouted as Tabitha took off.
"I'm not leaving without John!" She shouted.
"Damn it!" Lance swore under his breath. "Katherine! Take Remy and get the humans out of here, I'm going to cover the others!" he shouted as he took of after Tabitha.
************
Back in the Control room.
"John! You stupid Son of a Bitch DON'T!!!" Mike Nagrite called as he watched his friend make the ultimate sacrifice.
"Sorry mate, The world needs on less of him than they need one more of me." John St. Allerdyce said as he lit himself on fire. Using his power he created a blast of energy so powerful it rivaled that of the sun. Omega was barely able to get out of the energy's way. Sinister wasn't.
"AHHHHHHHHH" Sinister screamed as he was eaten alive by the energy. Mike ran out of the room and into Tabitha and Lance.
"Mike…" Tabitha asked, tears streaming down her face.
"He took out one of the greatest evils around." Mike sad solemnly. Tabitha broke down and started to cry.
"Lance, Pyro started a chain reaction in the Bio-Core." Mike stated as he picked up Tabitha. "This hole place will blow in a few minutes."
"Let's move." Lance said as he unleashed a pulse of seismic energy at the wall braking it. The three of jumped out and landed next to their comrades. They didn't have to say a word. The look on their faces told it all. Lance created an earthen orb and the six of the left the place were one of their own gave is life to make the world a better place. Within moments after they left, the entire place blew up from the raging power of Pyro's Fireblast. They left not only a comrade their, but also a piece of their hearts.
