An Unusual Offer
"Ugh what was I drinking?" Low Light shook his head. He found that he was in a warehouse of some kind bound to a chair with metal restraints. "Oh goody." He saw Xavier was next to him. "They got you too?"
"Apparently," Xavier sighed. "I've tried calling the X-Men with my mind but something is blocking my telepathy."
"That would be me."
"Oh great…" Low Light looked and saw who it was.
"Greetings gentlemen," Emma Frost walked up to them. She was wearing a very skimpy white corset and panties as well as a white cape that was draped over her shoulders. "I've come with a proposition."
"Women dressed like you usually do," Low Light remarked.
"What is it you want Emma?" Xavier asked.
"I'm here to make you an offer Charles," Emma told him. "I'd like the both of you to join me."
"What?" Low Light glared at her. "You couldn't just make a phone call?"
"I prefer a more…personal touch," She grinned at him.
"Spare me…" Low Light gagged.
"Listen Charles," Emma turned her attention to Xavier. "Humanity is becoming more and more hostile to mutants. It won't be long before they completely turn on us. I'm offering you sanctuary from them."
"As much as I appreciate your offer," Xavier looked at her. "I don't think I will be able to take you up on it."
"Charles despite your ridiculous fondness for humans I'd rather have you as an ally than as an enemy," Emma told him. "At least you're more stable than Magneto."
"He still giving you trouble?" Low Light asked.
"Let's just say we've been steering clear of each other for now," She said. "However at least he has the good sense to know which way the wind is blowing, which is more than what I can say for you. I am trying to be reasonable here."
"Reasonable?" Low Light laughed. "You kidnap us and you expect us to think that you're reasonable! You're deluded, that's what you are!"
"Look who's talking," Emma looked at him. "I mean for crying out loud you're a mutant in the army. Well an enhanced mutant in the army technically but still close enough. I'm offering you a way out."
"Yeah like I'd actually go run off with you and your anti-boy scouts here?" Low Light indicated the Hellions with his head. They were standing off to the side. "I'm already a babysitter for some lunatic kids thank you very much!"
"Think about it," She said. "How long do you'll think you'll really last in GI Joe? Sooner or later some general is going to realize what kind of a weapon they have and transfer you to another unit. Or worse."
"General Hawk would never allow that!" Low Light snapped.
"Maybe not, but he may not have a choice in the matter," She replied. "Who's to say how long he'll last anyway?"
"If you do anything to Hawk or any of the others…" Low Light growled.
"Who said I would do anything?" Emma purred as she came closer to him. "I'm just suggesting a man like you should keep your options open. And such a handsome man as well."
"Give me a break," Low Light groaned.
"Come now, you should give me a chance," Emma used her powers to reach out to his mind.
"Get out of my head before I break yours you witch!" Low Light hissed.
"Interesting," Emma looked at Low Light. "I'm not getting any type of reaction from you. You really aren't attracted to me. No man has ever not been attracted to me in a long time!"
"This might come as a shock Frostie but not all guys think with their privates," Low Light snapped. "It'll take more than some peroxide bimbo in a skimpy uniform to get me to betray GI Joe!"
"Bimbo!" Emma huffed. "Bimbo? But you don't mind falling for that tramp Cover Girl?"
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING A TRAMP YOU VICTORIA'S SECRET REJECT?" Cover Girl burst through the door with the Misfits. The X-Men also showed up as well.
"Now things are going to get interesting," Beef grinned as he cracked his knuckles.
Next up: A nice little fight with the Hellions. Wheeee!
