"Hello X-men. At least we finally meet." The man next to Cobra said. He had
on armor from a veriaty of different cultures.Such as the Sentinels, the
Shi'ar and the Z'nox. He had a mask on so as to where you couldn't see his
face. He reached for a Shi'ar weapon and stepped forward but Cobra put her
arm out in front of him to stop him. It was clear that she was in control
here.
"No, X-Cutioner. Not now. All I want is the girl!" After X-cutioner relaxed and put his weapon away Cobra moved forward and pointed to Theressa.
"Me? What do you want with me?" Theressa asked as Logan, Jean and Scott moved toward her as well. Jean stood on one side, Scott on the other and Logan in front. This formed a little box.
"Hey bub!" Logan said.
"If you want her you have to get through me first!" Cobra gave an evil hiss.
"Fine! WE will get what we want. It is her destiny!"
"Whoa! Before anyone spills any blood," Theressa said as she moved in front of Wolverine, Who had his claws out.
"How could you know what MY destiny is?"
"Apocalypse wants you on his team!"
"Why?" Husk asked, reminding everyone that Generation X was still there.
"She is his daughter and my sister! Would you not want to be with your family? You don't have to stay with these cheap mutants any longer. They are holding you ..............."
"Enough! I don't want to hear anymore of this! Who are you to tell me that these people that I love and respect dearly are holding me back?"
Theressa yelled as she walked right up to Cobra and started to yell again. "Who are you to come in here tell me that you are my sister and some guy that I have never met is my father? What really eurks me is that you expect me to come with you. Let me tell you something sister. I have lived with the X-men for about five to six years now! Five or six YEARS! You expect me to go with people that I have no clue if they are good or evil, much less if they are telling the truth or not, instead of staying with people that I have known for five or six years. No! I don't think So! I am staying with my family." She turned around and walked over to Wolverine. She looked at him and he looked back. "Now, Theressa concluded. "I want the Generation X Family back together or suffer the alternative."
"I'm sorry but that can not be done." X-cutioner said.
"Why not?" Emma said with a low growl in her voice.
"Because we never captured them. We killed them."
Everyone in Generation X was shocked. Husk started to cry as Chamber tried to comfort her. Although he had no mouth or bottom half of his face he could communicate through telepathy.
Husk. It will be all right. Cobra is probably bluffing. I promise you, it will be all right. We will live through this.
"How could you? How would you like it if someone came after your family and killed all of them? Do you see what you have done to them? To us?" Theressa screamed at the top of her lungs.
Even though she had never meet Generation X before today she felt a great swell of sorrow and pain and anger. She didn't know if she felt everyone else's emotions or if they were her own but never the less her scar turned a bright purple. Logan saw that Fox was about to fire lasers at Cobra. Her fingertips were a dark orange. The only color he had ever seen the lasers was a bright yellow and that stunned people. He didn't even want to know what dark orange or red did. He grabbed her arm and tried to calm her down.
"T are those on full blast?" Wolverine asked pointing at her right hand.
"YES!" She said threw her teeth.
"Have you ever used them on full blast before?"
"NO!"
"Because the Theressa I remember had never used her lasers on that high before and was afraid to."
"NO! I haven't but I have no choice. I have to do this." Theressa answered with a growl in her voice.
"I'm not going to stop you but I don't want you to regret anything you do today." Wolverine backed off and let Theressa think about what she was going to do.
"Are y'all going to back me up?" Theressa asked not expecting Generation X to answer.
"Theressa wait!" said a fifteen year old Husk. "What will it solve if we kill them? It won't bring the others back. Banshee wouldn't want us to be bitter and sad forever. Sure we will be sad but we can't do something to day that we will hate ourselves for tomorrow."
"Your right, but if we don't stop them now then, they will rejoin Apocalypse and try to carry out their plan. We are the protectors of the World. We can't not do something and hate ourselves for it later."
"Then do it for that reason Lassie." Everyone turned to see Banshee standing behind them, by the window.
"Sean! We thought ............" Emma said but couldn't finish her sentence. She was so overwhelmed with gladness that tears began to fall down her face. Banshee took her in his arms and said.
"I know. So did these clowns. We tricked them in to thinking that we were asleep by making holograms of ourselves. Then we ran out the back door. I then took M, Jubilee and the others to Xavier. I flew over here knowing that you would be fooled as well."
"That's toughing!" Cobra hissed. "Theressa are you coming with us or not?"
"Not! Like I told you before these people are my family and they care about me too much to let me go with out a fight. I'm not going!"
Cobra snapped her fingers and X-cutioner smiled through his black leather mask. He reached for his Shi'ar weapon again and pulled it out. "Now who should I go after first?"
Suddenly the closet doorknob started to rattle. "I think I'll go after whatever is behind door number one. Come out, Come out who ever you are. Can you come out and play?"
Just as X-Cutioner was about to open the door, it flew open and smacked him right in his face. Leech and Archie both walked out. Leech looked at X- cutioner, who was now on the floor passed out.
"One down one to go." Leech said.
Suddenly Cobra's beautiful creamy white skin turned a yellowish green. Her wavy blond hair turned fiery red. Her fingers and toes became sharp tallens. To top it all off she sprouted a pair of wings and a tail. By this transformation, her black skirt and black tank top were torn to the point where she barely had anything on. She then began to blow fire. Leech went up to Cobra and neutralized her powers.
"Hurry guys I can't hold her for long." Leech said.
Theressa, Scott, Dazzler, Gambit, and Havok fired lasers and enery blasts while Banshee used his supersonic scream against Cobra. Everyone else backed off. They didn't want to be caught in the crossfire. Leech was holding on the best he could but eventually he gave out when Cobra was on her knees. Logan saw three spikes come out on her tail. He realized that if he didn't get Leech out of the way Cobra could, and probably would, kill him. While his friends were still fiering at Cobra, Wolverine ran threw the small battle and, dove just as Cobra swang her tail, he grabbed leech and hovered over him as if he were a shield. Logan took all three spikes. Logan, with all the strength that he had left, stabbed Cobra in her side. Everyone stopped firing when Cobra was on the floor. They were all staring at the bodies on the floor.. Jean and Theressa ran over to help leech and Wolverine. Jean moved Logan back and grabbed the trembeling Leech and handed him off to Banshee. The two woman relized that the one that had gone threw his head had gone all the way through his brain and his forhead. In fact all thre spikes had gone in one way and out the other. He looked like a human shiskobob. Theressa reached for her knife so that shecould cut Wolverine loose, when a dark blue knife showed up on her hand.
"What is this?" She asked Jean.
"It's a telekinetic knife. Very few telekinetics have them. Use it to seperate the spikes from the tail."
Jean rolled the now uncouncess wolverine on tho his side, while Fox cut the tail. Theressa went as fast as she could. She knew that if an object killed or wounded him his healing fator would not begin to work until the object was removed. Right now, Wolverine was probably dead, due to the sever damage to his brain and the spike was not yet removed. Scott told Banshee to get Generation X out of there while they still had a chance. Cobra was still out but X-cutioner was coming to and if the X-men didn't get out of there in time it could spell death for all of them.
"No, X-Cutioner. Not now. All I want is the girl!" After X-cutioner relaxed and put his weapon away Cobra moved forward and pointed to Theressa.
"Me? What do you want with me?" Theressa asked as Logan, Jean and Scott moved toward her as well. Jean stood on one side, Scott on the other and Logan in front. This formed a little box.
