project: sentinel chapter two

Bypassing the security on the roof access door the man known to most as Gambit slipped inside, his red eyes glowing faintly in the darkened hallway. His target was CEO Warren Worthington's private office where upon leaving every night at 6 p.m he left his laptop in his personal safe hidden in the floor under the expensive rug. The guards were in the lobby watching the security cameras Gambit had looped to show what was happening half an hour ago. That gave Remy thirty minutes to take the files he needed and get out, plenty of time as long as there were no suprises.
The safe opened with twenty minutes to go and inside was the laptop just as it was supposed to be.
"I love it when a plan comes together" Gambit said to no one at all. It took a little over ten minutes to crack the password and find the info he needed giving him around eight minutes to copy it to the flash drive and reach the roof. "piece o' cake? No thanks already havin' one" "Then maybe there's something else I can help you with thief."
{I knew this was to easy} Gambit thought turning to see a blonde man with large wings spread behind his back in the doorway.
"I'm guessing by the wings that your Worthington and you ain' goin' t' be best pleased that your bein' robbed."
"Good guess, since you know my name how about you tell me yours? I'd hate to have to kick your ass until I know who you are."
"y' can call me Gambit and as for the ass kicking it looks like the cards are in my favour."

And quicker than warren's eye can follow Gambit flicks his arm forward and releases three cards surrounded by an eerie purple glow, Warren dives back as the cards strike the door frame above his head. Warren recovers and runs into the office but sees nobody there, only a broken window, looking out of it he sees nothing but the calm night.
"That maniac he jumped out of a 25 story window" walking over to his laptop "damn he got the files too, what the hell was he looking for." "Aright hold it rig-oh Mr Worthington I thought you'd left, we heard the commotion but the cameras were blank what happened?" "We were robbed what does it look like?"
"but the alarms they didn't go off I'll call the police"
"No that's quite alright George they'll never find him, but I know someone else who can."
"But sir it's company policy to notify the police about these kind of things" "Don't tell me about company policy, this is my company I created the policy! Just call someone to repair the damage I'll deal with finding the thief"
"yes sir." With that the security guard left leaving Warren alone.
"Well, I guess it's time to visit some old friends."

"Hey Rogue I didn't expect to see you out here this morning your usually training with wolverine on Sundays."
"oh hi Jubes wolvie went to Harry's last night he's sleeping in." "So, I just ran into Bobby he was looking for you" "What did you tell him?"
"nothing, so is it actually over between you two?"
"Yeah I guess so we just stopped hanging out he's always busy with x-business and he's so messed up about John leaving, and jealous of Logan."" "who wouldn't be your always with him"
"so what he's been like family to me and with Jean dying he needed someone he could talk to."
"hey girl I'm on your side I wa-" Jubilee suddenly stopped talking as she and Rogue saw what looked the shadow of a large bird, looking up from their seat on a bench in Xavier's garden they saw it was actually a man flying on angels wings. He disappeared to the other side of the school and they both ran in to find out what was going on.
"Warren what are you doing here?" Storm appearing from the dining room to find Warren on the front doorstep was shocked but also pleased to see a familiar face "I came to see professor Xavier is he in?" "Yes he's but he's teaching right now perhaps you'd like to wait?"
"Of course is Scott around I've been wanting to talk to him ever since- well you know" storm's smile faded as she just nodded "so Ororo how have you been?" "I'm fine things have certainly been easier these last few weeks" *BAMF* "Ororo I was just wondering if y-oh I didn't mean to interupt" "it's fine Kurt this is Warren otherwise known as archangel, Warren this is Kurt also called Nightcrawler."
"nice to meet you" Kurt said extending his three fingered hand "likewise"
"Kurt's the new German teacher" a class full of kids cut off any further conversation by exiting the professor's classroom followed by the man himself "Ah warren nice to see you again what can we do for you?" Warren liked and respected the professor he'd really helped him out when he was young and Warren had graduated the school along with Scott and Jean and left to attend college, now he owned one of the largest manufacturers of central processing units and missile guidance technology in the world, the professor had not been pleased about the last part but he new if it wasn't his company it would be another. Now Warren was a sponsor of the school and helped to fund the x-men. "I came to ask for your help in locating a thief who broke into my office in Manhattan."
"My help why would you need my help?" "being a telepath I thought you that know already"
"you know I don't invade the minds of my friends and students"
"I know, it was a joke. I wanted your help because the thief is a mutant, I'd like you to try and locate him through cerebro."
"Of course I'll try but I'll need more information, we'll talk more in the war room when I've gathered the x-men."
"Hey who's that guy with the wings-oh" jubilee as usual talking before thinking as she and rogue came from the back door.
"Jubilee, Rogue this is Warren Worthington a former student" "hi" said jubilee and rogue in unison.
{*x-men gather in the war room*} "I've sent the team a telepathic message there on their way. With that Storm Nightcrawler Archangel and Xavier entered the lift to the lower levels to await the arrival of the rest of the team.

Meanwhile elsewhere, Remy LeBeau stepped off of his Harley and entered the old warehouse that his employer had designated the meeting place to close their deal. The place was empty.

"Great the one time I d'cide t' show up early"
"oh I wouldn worry about it Cajun yer right on time" "CREED!!!" Gambit jumps into an attack position extends his Bo staff and flicks three cards from the sleeve of his trench coat to his fingertips before the words leave his throat.
"a little jumpy ain't ya" Sabertooth stepped from behind a crate in the corner of the room brandishing his claws. "what d' hell are you doin' here butcher?" "didn't the boss tell ya if ya decide to join up with us we're gonna be team-mates again just like old times huh punk?"
"I ain' joinin' no team dis was just another pinch nothin more" "another pinch? Who died this time?"
"keep pushin' creed an' you an' me are gonna' have a problem" Gambit charged the cards in his hand for emphasis.
"I'd love to feed ya those cards Cajun, but the boss'll be along any minute." "Good 'cause this'll only take a minute."
"From what I remember yer throwing arm leaves a lot to be desired" "ENOUGH both of you the time has come to finish our business Mr LeBeau" The powerful voice came from behind Gambit but he wasn't about to turn his back on Sabertooth.
"Did you retrieve the data I asked for?"
"yup I got it, you got my money?"
"Of course did you run into any trouble?" "nothing I couldn' handle" Gambit wasn't usually so sour with his business associates but he didn't trust or like this man and now he knew that he was involved with creed he hated him.
{damn why do I always get involved people like dis, oh yeah the money speaking of witch}
"Here's the disc, you got my money?"
"Sabertooth pay him" Creed pulled a briefcase from behind a pillar and threw it to Gambit.

"Are you sure you won't join our cause I could use a man with your talents?" {I'd rather swim in the bayou wearing a steak for a bathin' suit} The thought brought a smile to his face he hadn't thought of home in days, but it soon faded. "non' you couldn' afford me"
"very well Sabertooth lets go"

"see ya around bub"
"I hope not" {I better be right about him bein' the lesser of two evils but what the hell would a psycho like Creed be doin' working for a guy like Magneto."
