****Begin Sasha vs. Brennen Files****
The story continues...
A junkyard covered in machinery, computer screen fully lit. Equipment humming, and a creature of energy flies though the empty space leaping from machine to machine. Elsewhere Team Beta was walking the city streets. Aya walked quadruped ahead of the group with her fur, claws, and fangs in full effect. The street deserted thanks to Amy riding on Aya's back and keeping the others appraised of any onlookers. Rain took up the second position ready to replicate at a moment's notice to circle Aya and provide a cover. Lance walked beside Rain, as his abilities were best suited for the front with his control over earth. Flanking Rain's other side was Alex due to his gravitational abilities. Evan, Bernice and John took up the rear. They had been on the search for hours and were growing discouraged.
~Brennen's scent is weak.~ ~I know Aya but give us another hour.~
Suddenly Aya turns her head sharply and breaks into a run "WOAH! SLOW DOWN!" Shouts Amy as she grips Aya's fur firmly.
The group breaks into a run but Aya is significantly faster on her quadrupedual sprint. But after 15 minutes she comes to a stop outside a junkyard and Aya and Amy catch their breath while the others catch up to them. ~Prey inside trash cage.~ ~It's a junkyard Aya.~ ~Does name matter.~ "Come on in."
Startled the group jump back, Rain Reflexively replicating as the gate open automatically even though they're not electrical. Cautiously the group stalks inside resuming their earlier formation.
"Brennen?" John speaks aloud what they all are thinking, his voice echoing all of the others along with his own. "Yes, what brings New Mutants to my abode?" Spoke the very metal around them. "We're the temporary Sanctuary Team, we're looking for you, to take you back," spoke John in his own voice alone. "I do not wish to return, I have evolved beyond the mortal Flesh, I am energy, pure pulsing power. The flesh is weak, the machine is strong, do you protect the flesh?" "What do you mean?" "Do you champion the Humans? The Flesh ones?" "Uh.you are human." "I am pure energy, I am the machine." "I think your ill Brennen." "Brennen is dead, I am binary, 101010001, I am living energy." "I think you better come with us." "NO!"
The junkyard shook as the metal began to rise up into the shape of 10-foot tall machine men. Aya bared her fangs and growled as Amy leapt off the fur on Aya's fur rose as she took an aggressive posture. And everyone shared the same thoughts; they were in big trouble. But they did not expect an army of robots so there they stood the 13 of them vs. 10 machine men. Evan quickly formed his armor while Alex hit the sentinels with a rapid loss in mass. Lance used the opportunity to send a seismic shock wave that bowled the machine men off their feet. Aya and Evan charged forward, Evan smashed what he could but it was Aya who had the distinct advantage when Alex quickly increased her mass as using the force behind her new weight combined with the drop in mass in the robots she ripped them to shreds. Guided by Amy they avoided retaliation and in a short time they stood victorious over a mass of metal but their victory was quickly overturned when Brennen rose from the metal shards and hovered above them before he unleashed an enormous storm of electricity through the group. The group collapsed to the ground convulsing as Brennen hovered above them and crackled with energy.
"Flesh ones, it ends now.."
Suddenly, a hawk appeared in the sky and the group watched on drooling and convulsing as the Hawk transformed into a squid and enveloped Brennen. Brennen struggled for several minutes but then the squid became rocklike and then shrunk into the shape of Sasha. She looked down at the group and spoke a mysterious statement before shifting back to a hawk and flying off again.
"Brennen exists inside me, I will cure him."
The group could only look on confused as their faculties slowly recovered.
