The Usual Rescue Scene
"Oh look," Emma drawled. "The X-Men and The Misfits along with a few Joes have come to save the day."
"Yeah unlucky for you…" Cover Girl snarled. "Let 'em go! Now!"
"I don't think you of all people are in any position…" Emma began to say. She was then cut off by a telekinetic shove by Jean. "Very well…if it's a fight you really desire."
"Thought you'd never ask," Althea grinned. They charged the Hellions. As good a fight the Hellions put up, they were outnumbered. To top it off, Low Light had managed to escape his bonds by reverting to a gas form temporarily and was now in the fight.
"Hold it sister, you and I have some issues!" Cover Girl went to hit Emma. Immediately Emma reverted to a diamond form. "OW!" Cover Girl held her damaged hand.
"Too bad you can't hurt me," Emma grinned. Something tapped her on the shoulder. "Huh?"
Low Light had reverted to a diamond form as well and gave her a good right cross. "Two can play this game sweetheart!" He snarled.
"How dare you strike a lady!" Emma snarled as she fell to the floor.
"You may be a woman but you ain't no lady," Low Light snapped. "What can I say? I'm all for equal fights."
"You mean equal rights," She stood up and glared at him.
"Nope," He grinned. "Equal fights. Now let's dance!"
"Another time perhaps," She told him. "Hellions! Retreat!"
"You okay?" Low Light asked.
"Besides needing a new hand? Just fine. Well diamonds are a girl's best friend," Cover Girl looked him over.
Low Light returned to human form. "Thanks for the rescue. If I had to look at that bad outfit of hers any longer I would have thrown up."
"So why did they grab you?" Logan asked.
"She wanted to ally us with the Hellions," Low Light explained. "Come over to the dark side, rule the world. Yada, yada yada…"
"Don't bad guys ever have anything original to say?" Bobby asked.
"Wait a second…" Low Light looked around. "All of you are here?"
"Yeah," Scott said. "Once we heard that you were in danger we called in the others for back up."
"Even Amanda's here?" Low Light asked.
"Well I kind of got caught up in the moment," Amanda admitted.
"But if you're all here…" Xavier asked. "Then where are the babies?"
"They're back…" Lance began.
"At the mansion…" Scott looked at him. "Uh oh…"
Uh oh is right! Just what have those two little scamps gotten up to while everyone went off? Find out next!
