Jennifer and James sat around, eating Pizza. Jennifer was pretty pleased with her pizza ordering abilities, their base with the coverup of, a simple house, you would think the pizza boy would give an odd look when a woman answers the door, and theres all these gadgets and gizmo's on the inside. Jennifer looked to James, she wondered how Rayvin and Duane were doing, It had been a while now. A day since Rayvin left, and about 2-3 days since Duane left, she never knew with Duane, even after dating him for nearly 4 years, she still didnt know enough about the guy to understand his habbits. Unearthly waking hours, he was so quiet when he was by himself. Jennifer didnt understand alot of things about her teammates. Why Rayvin, never flirted, Why Kevin was so dumb sometimes... Why James was so cute when he chewed his pizza... Jennifer blinked, what was she thinking.

James however was looking at her oddly. "Can I help you, or is there a specific reason you've been staring at me eat for the last 10 minutes." He wasnt sure what she wanted, but he had a pretty good idea. He chewed the rest of his pizza and looked at Jennifer. "You're doing it again Jen."

Jennifer threw her arms up in defence and cried out "Sorry! This living room aint the most exciting thing goin on in this house."He shrugged "The way you chew... Its funny."

James looked curiously as he grabbed a peice of pizza. "What, do I chew like a horse?" Then he did his best attempt at chewing like a horse.

Jennifer laughed with a giggle. "You're funnier than you lead on."

James looked with a smirk and shrugged "What, us leader types have our interesting personality quirks too."

Jennifer smirked "Yeah, giving orders, and dirty looks."

James just shook his head, Jennifer was always someone he looked at as only a friend. He was about to ask her something but Kevin burst into the room looking at the two, he opened a box of pizza and sat by the two. "That kitchen is gonna need some heavy work. But I can handle it."

James nodded, slightly relieved he didnt do what he was gonna. "Good to hear, sorry for getting angry, these times as of late have been trying."

Kevin nodded, "I tottaly understand dude, You're our leader, you worry about everything. Duane's fine, Rayvin'll find him, im 100 percent certain about it!"

Jennifer smiled "Plus ya know, you shouldn't try to take all the stress all the time, there's five of us on this team, thats four other sets of shoulders to set the load on, dont hesitate to give us stuff to do eh?"

James nodded as he took another slice. "Okay, I see your point, maybe I do overburden myself with stress.. but so what, I can handle it, its not like Its killing me or anything, right?"

Kevin looked to the group, James seemed like he was willing to share the stress, but he really didnt want to. He looked to Jennifer, he knew, ever since day one, even when she dated Duane, she was in love with James, he knew that James didnt share the feelings. His wife died during the war, the 6th member of the group. Lauren Reynolds, James had never been the same since in Kevin's eyes.

James slowly ate his pizza, watching Jennifer. She reminded him of the one he used to love.. His Wife Lauren he still wore the wedding ring, he looked at it and lingered around it for a while, slowly ate his peice of pizza.

Jennifer noticed this, she wanted to say something but couldnt find the vocal cords to say anything. But suddenly there was a knock at the door.

James went to answer the door but he was stopped by Jennifer. "Wait, I here people, one of them isnt familiar.... more people... are coming, alot more!"

Duane and Rayvin were waiting outside, why the door was locked was beyond them. Hurricane landed nearby. Looking around.

"Is this your hideout, isnt it a little... low key?"

Duane chuckled looking at her. "All the fun is in the lower levels babe."

Hurricane shook her head. "Thanks anyway, Im really not interested."

Duane blinked. Rayvin interupted. "The house has many sub basements, that is what he was refering to."

Hurricane nodded. "We need to get in, their enforcements are coming."

James was unsure how she knew this, but she always had a nack for telling things like this, her abilities were very keen, enhanced hearing and sight can help in situations like that. She went infront of him. "I'll get it."

Jennifer opened the door, seeing Duane's shiner that he got from the punch to the face by the officer. Jennifer looked worried and helped him in, eventhough he didnt need it. Rayvin lead Hurricane into the home. "James. This is Hurricane, she is a.."

James interupped Rayvin. "I know who she is, I welcome you to my hideout. Come in, Pizza?"

Hurricane shook her head. "No, no thank you. Im here to talk with you, about the current events."

James was about to respond, but the loud sound of a Megaphone and someone's talking was heard outside. The Officer was back, and he brought alot of friends, he was a bit beaten by duane in there. But he was back "Mutants! Come out of the house, with your hands where we can see them!"

James shook his head, looking to Rage. "Kevin, do your worst..."

Kevin smirked "Alright."

Hurricane looked confused, she hadnt heard much of Rage, other than he got really angry. "Whats he going to do?"

Jennifer smiled and sat by the window. "Care to watch?"

Hurricane nodded and sat down near Jennifer as Rage exited the door, Standing in bluejeans and a tank top he looked to the crowd of anti mutant enforcement officers, technically they lived in neutral territory, but there were no rules against what the anti mutant groups did. "Want my hands where you can see them?"

The officer chuckled and looked at him. "Hahaha, get on your knees, and put your hands on your head. Now."

Rage smiled. "What are you, the police?"

The officer looked "Im only going to tell you once more!"

Rage looked as he stood his ground. Inside the house Duane was getting down, the house and windows were essentially bulletproof, but they were cautious. They werent getting down at the officer's request, they were getting down, incase bullets went through. "Why dont you walk your bad self up here, and make me!"

The officer looked to the group behind him. "Detain the mutant!"

Soon the officers unleashed a barage of fire at Rage. Rage fell down laying on the steps motionless, steam rising from Rage from all the holes that were in his body. But his healing factor was quick at work, a few things were quick at work..

Hurricane looked shock "OH MY GOD THEY SHOT HIM!" She went to dart to the door but she was stopped by Jennifer.

Jennifer smiled. "Dont worry, he'll get up."

Hurricane winced. "Noone, human nor mutant can survive taking that many bullets."

Jennifer smiled. "Clearly you've never heard of Kevin Yates."

The officer looked, he pointed a few men on to check the mutant. But they stop instantly, unforgettably dumbfounded looks on their face as Kevin was getting up slowly, his tank top shredded to a mere fabric that he ripped off. Slowly he looked at them.

"I was gonna be nice." He said before taking a step, "But then you had to shoot me." He continued walking towards them.

Hurricane watched stunned "He got up from that!!"

Jennifer smirked "What'd I tell you?"

Rage looked towards them. "I know its a cheezie line, call it verbal plagarism of sorts but, Im getting angry.." He balled up his fists... and concentrated, focusing all the anger he felt forward... to the top of him, like he was surging it out.

The officer looked as him and his men backed up as he walked forward. "Ready to fire men."

Kevin looked up, he had been staring at the ground and his eyes were glowing a red "When I get angry, I RAGE!" And suddenly his body flared a firey red aura, and he looked as he charged at the group, with a swipe of his arm, knocked them to the side like bowling balls, the other men fired but their shots barely effected him.

The officer's eyes were glowing red also, but a dark, dark red. Just like they were when he captured Duane. He watched off, almost, silently.

Duane was watching out the window, he was in a stare at the officer. He looked to the group. "Shit."

James looked to Duane. "What?"

Rage was still outside batting around mutants. His strength was uncompared, hell he was quick and agile too as he grabbed a guy by the leg and started twirling like a hellicopter sort of, and he released the guys leg, sending him hurdling towards the house and crashing through the living room window. Jennifer hit the deck and quickly threw the guy out.

The officer had a scowl on his face an unamused look... Rage was done with his goons and turned to face him. Rage looked "Your turn, buddy!" He ran at him, but the officer teleported right through him, and ended up 15 feet behind him.

Duane cursed "Shit... " He was grabbing his guns and kicking the locked door open as he looked "Rage!" He looked "Watch out."

Rage was charging and missing as the officer teleported out of the way, over and over again. Rage waited and concen traited bashing his two hands into the ground, he sent an earthquake wake in his direction. The officer fell to the ground, looking quite shaken.

Duane watched from the steps. "Rage... get back here."

Rage started to walk back... but the officer got up. Duane watched cautiously, what he feared, was happening. The Officer was growing, changing, his uniform ripped and He grew two more arms, but he was changing, almost insect like, he grew to over 10 feet tall. Four arms, rather insect looking, Thing.

Duane looked "Rage, Look out!!"

But he wasnt warned soon enough, with the swipe of an arm. The... thing hit Rage, sending him flying through a nearby tree, then sliding down the road. "You thought you got rid of me? Didnt you Kindred... Thought you could just get rid of your ol' pal Aaron. Did ja!" His voice was deep, like it wasn't from this world it wasnt, he was a Demon, named Violation.

James looked wide eyed... "Holy hell!" Jennifer was watching and Hurricane winced. Rayvin was ready. James looked "Jennifer, take Hurricane to the lower levels, we'll deal with this.. I hope."

Rage stood up.. "Puke faced, little, punk bitch, ass chined little... " Cursing as he stalked to Violation.

Kindred was firing shots that barely phased Violation. It had been years since he'd seen Aaron, Violation in his mutant form was obvious to him, how could he be so blind, but in his true form, he had only seen once before. He nearly died.

James exited the main door, his fists glowing green... "Eat Beam, Bitch!" And he unleashed a green beam of energy, heading strait for Violation, sending him reeling, then a flying tackle from Rage, out of nowhere, Rage was pounding the hell out of him. James looked "Do we help him."

Duane shook his head "Im sure Rage can take him, lets just stand and wait."

Rage pounded him with strong fists, full of anger and rage, the 10 foot version of Violation was bleeding, soon he transformed back to his normal self, except he was wearing a dark black cloak, with a black shirt and black pants... He teleported away... Rage growled smacking the pavement. Duane sighed. "Lets be thankful it was him.... Rage could've healed. We ... would've been dog food."

Rage stalked back, no longer glowing, or flowing with rage he breathed deeply... "I hate him."

Duane nodded. "Join the club..."

Jennifer and Hurricane stood at the door. Jennifer looked "He gone?"

Duane nodded "Yeah.. ugh, im starved.. any pizza left?"

They all walked back into the house, police sirens heard in the distance as they started arresting the anti mutant group members...
