Sych: I'm glad you like their relationship! It's rare that Logan is cute.. hell.. he's enver cute. But their relationship can be. (: Just sweet at how she affects him Yah, Siren is exactly that. I'm glad you have caught up!

Jenny: That's what logan is like though, he is very calm when fighting. The fighting will humans is coming to a close, read on to find out!

LoneEagle: Thank you! I'm glad you like my description! I love writing it too! and when eh said he needed Aurora, it wasn't because of anything phsycacal like wounds or anything. It was mental, really deep. It looks like that those words have finally expressed what he's been bottling up! Lol, I'm glad you liked that line, i can imagine something like that in the film, would be effective stuff. Yeah, I lose the script dialogue. 1) I dunno what else to put in it, 2) I don't want to risk losing my story. I send an email asking if it was allowed.. no reply. So I assume they don't care?

TheWolf: Hehe, yep!

Here is the next chapter my friends! 254 reviews! Wow! I love you guys!


Chapter 55

The human's attention instantly focused on Siren, their guns were tightly held as they watched the fearless smirk on her face. The pistols were held on several of the humans, who kept slowly flinching back to try and get out of reach. The compound remained deadly silent, each team waiting for the others to make the first move. The gusts of travelling wind lightly howled in the atmosphere, sending material and tresses into gentle sways to the rhythm of the air. Aurora too was still, her body naturally held in a mild crouch, back bent and legs parted a little so she was ready for any oncoming attacks. Even as curled wisps of black fluttered over her startling eyes, they didn't flinch, they continued to stare at the humans at their right.

More silence.

A scent crept into Aurora's senses and instantly alerted her. She spun on the spot, left leg outstretched as she pirouetted on the ball of her right foot. Left heeled-boot smacked across the skull of a human who had been creeping up upon Scott. With a howl of pain the figure fell back to the floor, where he lay, silenced by shock. Many of the mutants hurriedly spun with gasps and noises of alarm. Bullets exploded through the night air as the humans began fire. With an angered cry, Siren catapulted her body off the metallic ledge and threw herself through the air with pistols roaring with explosions of their own bullets. Human's fell flat to the floor. Mutants were sent flying when struck.

Chaos.

Screams chillingly filled the night air, from both sides of the battle. Bodies fell to the earth with hideous thuds. Aurora spun her head as she saw her own team members falling under the bullets of the humans. Her blood ran cold as she saw Scott's face in agony as he staggered and collapsed. Aurora swooped through the streaming bullets to him, ducking over the dangerous flying metal. Scott was on his knees on the floor, doubled over in pain. She reached his side, leaning to him with a terrified expression, "Scott?" She gasped.

"We're going to lose.." He muttered, glancing to her slowly, "There's too many of them."

"No.. Scott we must win.."

"It's too late Aurora, humans have empowered mutants.."

"No.." She softly breathed, watching in horror as their team leader was admitting defeat.

Then, she was snatched from conversation with him as a bullet screamed through the air and ripped into her gut. With the power of the weapon she was sent to the floor in disbelief and bewilderment before the obvious pain kicked in. Maybe Scott was right.

She stared across the concrete she was pressed again, her chest racking with tears as she saw Electro being shot down, then Rian, then Sora. They all collapsed ungracefully, all sharing expressions of agony and shock. She heard bodies falling ahead, and the victorious cries of Siren as she continued to jump from bullets, swinging over pipes that connected the vents and springing upon them with a fresh range of bullets.

Elizabeth was stopping many bullets in their travel, by her side her daughter who sent bullets spiralling off course by explosions of fire. The weather took a turn for the worse, no question who caused that. But now, the skies were heaving with volatile clouds, lightening exploded from the heavens and down to the humans. Group fell dead in seconds.

Aurora dropped her head back to the floor, gasping softly as the pain was beginning to truly take hold of her. Showers of rain then began to gracefully drop from the sky. She continued her shaky breaths as she felt the gentle droplets wash over her face softly. Just when she was ready to accept defeat for the mutants. She heard a shuddering roar explode from behind the humans. Her head slowly lifted to stare blearily through the dark rain to see a hulking figure.

With one swipe, humans were sent flying through the air. Hit by hit, humans collapsed in death. Blood pooled, screams deafened. From the silhouetted figure, Aurora saw claws swiping. Her heart made a peculiar leap. The Wolverine was back in all his glory. Undeterred by earlier state, he was back to fight and avenge. The anger radiated off him, and Aurora could smell it, she could feel it. Another swipe of his fist, another human dead.

Scott looked up slowly from the floor, breath unsteady as he clutched at a bleeding wound in his chest. Even though his eyes were masked, his features relaxed in shock, as the Wolverine fought in such a violent state no one had ever seen before. His moves were lightning quick; each blow powerful. No waiting or considering. Striking down the humans, killing them unmercifully. Humans began to flee in terror as bullets fell off his wounds simply, and he continued without hesitation.

Wolverine spun his head as he heard light footsteps from behind him. He saw Mystique running in from a battle of her own. She was wounded in several places, but determination never left her face as she leapt in to begin to wrestle a human from Wolverine. Wolverine ignored the presence of this mutant on his back, and continued to sink his claws through each human foolish enough to venture near the killing machine. Because that was he was. That's what he was made for. Killing. Ironically enough. This organization had made him. And Logan knew it.

So every hit was revenge. Anger fuelled, hate fuelled, and heart fuelled revenge for Stryker and his armies.

From the corner of his eye he saw Kurt leaping over fallen bodies with a hiss of a growl as he kicked an oncoming soldier out of the way. Kurt continued to sprint over, a broken piece of piping in his hand. Wolverine assumed Kurt was making way to help him.. but he was wrong. He felt the faint weight upon his shoulders leave as the human fell back dead. Mystique sprung from the body and landed silently on the concrete. Logan gave a casual sniff.. before his eyes widened and he spun to see Kurt teleport from behind him and over Mystique.

In frenzy, Logan cried to the religious mutant, "Kurt! NO!"

But it was too late; he saw it all happen slowly, mockingly unhurried. Kurt's face was twisted with anger, Mystique's in horror. The piping was raised steadily, blue digits gripping it tightly as it was smacked down across Mystique's skull. Her face was already consorted with pain and slow death from the battle with the humans. When the pipe struck she was sent flying to the floor heavily. And that's when it all speeded up, right when her body hit the floor in blood.

Kurt landed to the floor gently, throwing the now blood marked pipe to the floor, "Wretched Brotherhood." He muttered, glaring down at her. Slowly his head turned to Logan, to meet the horrified glare. Then, a shout called through the night.

"Get him!!"

Kurt only managed to glance to his right when a small group of humans all let out fire. He teleported desperately, his form disappearing some. But the bullets had already struck, and he reappeared fully before collapsing under the mass of shot bullets. Logan's eyes widened even more as he gasped softly in shock as the barricade of bullets mowed down Kurt.

Logan's face shifted to tighten as he growled and made a run to the shooting humans. The last of the soldiers. With cries of fright, the humans scattered. Logan pounced through the air, slicing a few and flattening one. A few running humans were frozen to the spot, some electrocuted, and a few just collapsed by an inner force.

Then.. it fell silent. Every human dead.

Logan turned on the spot, glancing to where a few standing mutants remained. He glanced up as Siren soared down from one of the buildings and landed with the small group. Logan gave her a nod before his attention suddenly flowed over the group to find Aurora. But as his gaze travelled, his eyes passed the grounded mutants. Some dead, some just wounded.

He hoped that Aurora wasn't one of the dead.


Logan: I lived! I lived! I'm so cool..

Scott: Shut up..

Logan: Nyah, you're just annoyed cos you got shot.

Scott: So did you.

Logan: But I'm special!

All: ...
