Chapter 6
Saturday…10:00 am
"Are they still sleeping?" Yuriko asked walking into the Kitchen where Emma was sipping some of her coffee and watching TV.
"Yup" she answered without looking at the other adult.
"Shouldn't we wake them up to tell them the other part of their mission?"
"Not yet…I think they deserve to sleep in a bit later considering what a good job they did last night," and saying that she pointed to the TV which was on the news. Deathstrike looked towards the TV and turned the volume up to hear what they were saying.
"As you can see behind me, Sefton Enterprises has been destroyed without there being any clue to how it might have happened. Police officers are investigating the cause and at the moment think a seriously dangerous force of nature might have caused it. They even suggest an earthquake even though most people should have felt such a force. A lot of the public has a different opinion though. Yesterday at around midnight there was a call to the police force talking about a disturbance in one of the main cement blocks that held the building up. Unfortunately, the police officers that arrived to investigate can not tell us what has happened as they are in the hospital being treated for they seem to be stuck in a traumatized state. Some officers died along with five employees from the company. There will be a public tribute and funeral for all who would like to pay respects to the people that tragically lost their lives. That's all the news we have on the situation at the moment. Please join us at the 6 o'clock news where we will have an interview with the Sefton's. Back to you…Charlie."
'Click' and the TV turned off.
"That was the easy part of the mission…you think they'll be ready for the next?" Yuriko asked Emma.
"I have faith they'll do just fine…they're strong and they have confidence in each other as well as in themselves."
"What did you think about the X-Men?"
"They weren't what I was expecting…they almost beat us so I definitely have to give them credit."
"Well hopefully they won't think we were that hard to beat…because if they had a hard time with us…they have no idea what they're about to meet." Deathstrike looked up the stairs that lead to the bedrooms where four girls were sleeping peacefully…for now. Emma just smirked at the comment and faced the ceiling.

3:00 X-Mansion
Ding Dong
Kitty went to answer the door and when she opened it her jaw almost fell to the ground. There in front of her…were all the members of the Acolytes and the Brotherhood members.
"Like OMG what are you like doing here?" she asked the leaders who were in the front of the line.
"We were called by Xavier…he said it was important and that it would interest us greatly," answered Mystique annoyed.
"Like yeah right…if this is some kind of trap to like catch us off guard it isn't going to work," Kitty replied defensively.
"Kitty that is no way to treat our guest," a voice behind her said and Kitty turned around to face Jean. Jean walked past her and towards her enemies.
"Professor Xavier has been expecting your arrival."
"He has?" as a baffled Shadowcat. Jean turned to look at her.
"Yes…Kitty would you go and get the rest of the team in the rec room. The professor has called a meeting," Jean told the younger girl. Kitty nodded looked at her foes and then phased through the wall and went to look for other members.
"What is this all about," Magneto asked.
"I don't know. Prof. X just told me to come greet you and show you to the rec room. Please follow me," with that she turned around and led them to the room.
A couple of minutes later all the X-men, Acolytes and Brotherhood members were gathered together in the rec room. The x-men guys were glaring at bad boys who just glared back.
"Eric, Raven…thank you for coming," Professor X told them politely while entering the room. Both adults nodded their heads but then asked what was so important that he had asked the enemies to come into his home.
"I'm sure you all know about the trouble that happened yesterday…Sefton Enterprises mysteriously turned into ruins last night."
"Yes…it's been all over the news," Mystique answered a little annoyed.
"I now know what caused it…and half of what did was at one point your responsibility."
Magneto and Mystique looked confused as Prof. X continued.
"My good friends teh Seftons came early this morning to give me this," he said a lifted a video tape up. Xavier put the tape into the VCR and all the boys stop their glaring contest to see what was on the tape.
At first there was nothing but the night and a few of the lights on the street were visible. Then a black car stopped in front of the building and four girls were seen getting out. Their faces couldn't be seen well because the camera image was so far away.
The camera showed as they entered the parking lot section of the building and then come out a couple minutes later. One stayed outside while the others went back, she seemed to be waiting for something. A girl dressed in red come out and broke into the building through a window from the second floor with the help of…a light poll.
The people watching the tape then watched as police officers arrived and brutally got beaten by the girl who was waiting outside.
"Oh god," most of the girls said and gasped as they saw the young woman unleash claws from her hand and poke the officers eyes out.
Then they watched as the other girls came out and one walked out of site. A couple minutes' later cars were floating around and one of the girls was holding a car above her head. They crashed the cars into the building and then two flew away.
Everyone in the room watched as the building collapsed and everyone was quiet and just looked around the room as nothing but the ruins were seen for a while. After a while Mystique spoke.
"Why would that interest us?" she asked impatiently. Xavier sighed; a frown then graced his face.
"The answer will be shown to you soon enough."
Everyone turned their attention back to the screen where the young mischievous girls reappeared. One walked out of sight and the other just looked around. Suddenly something popped up in front of the camera and startled everyone in the rec room.
A dark girl with intense blue eyes looked straight into the camera and smirked. She then did what sounded like a whistle to them and watched as the other three young ladies walked towards them. The girl who had bluish black hair backed away from the camera and gave view to the other girls.
One with dark purple hair looked like she was walking through the air as she floated up and looked at the camera. The one dressed in red threw her hand at two light polls and they came to life lifting her up around the waist to get her in better view. The last one crossed her arms from the ground and slowly seems to fly up into a better camera view.
All the boys looked at them with their jaws open. They would be lying if they said these mysterious girls weren't HOT. Jean turned to look at Cyclops.
"Scott…what are you looking at?" she asked jealously.
"Ahh…nothing honey," he said closing his mouth. Amara turned to John and glared at his reaction but he didn't seem to notice. Prof. X paused the image on the screen since all the faces could be seen clearly.
"Do any of them look familiar?" he asked.
Eric and raven stared at the screen in shock before they both they each said one word.
"Marie"
"Wanda"
The brotherhood boys looked at the girl with green eyes and two stripes in her hair…their ex member. Pietro looked at Marie and then faced the girl who looked very familiar…his sister.
"It's been a while since either of you have seen them," Xavier commented looking at both shocked parents.
"They…did that?" Magneto asked looking at the daughter he had not seen in a couple of years.
"Yes"
"How is it possible they are here?" Mystique demanded.
"We are not sure but we're trying to find out everything we can about it." Xavier responded and continued the tape.
"Hello…X-men," the purple haired one spoke.
"I'm Psylocke…and we're here to give you a message," she smiled evilly. Before she could say anything else the one with midnight hair disappeared. The three watched her leave.
Psylocke kept talking and said, "That's Rogue and that's…"
"I can say my own name," the girl with short shoulder length hair and red tips said looking at the purpled haired girl.
"Then say it," came the southern drawl next to her.
"Scarlet Witch," she said now looking very annoyed. The missing girl returned but came with something else. It was a body…a police officers body…and his eyes looked like they were dug out of his eyes sockets. She put her fingers on his cheeks and squished them together so they could open.
"Mercy," she said in a deep voice. While moving the lips. She then looked at the camera, "What is Mercy?" she asked in a light voice and then without hesitation she let the body drop with a big 'Thud' on the ground. (X-23 is up in a tree…just to let everyone know lol)
The X-Men's face showed shock and disgust. The other girls smiled at what their friend had just done.
"That's X-23...anyway you know in life…there's a time to stand and fight," Psylocke said.
"And then there's a time to run and hide," X-23 spat out.
"We suggest…" Scarlet Witch continued.
"You run," Rogue finished and her eyes seem to have an evil glint in them. After saying the officer's body seemed to float back up to where the camera was. Psylocke raised her hand towards it psychic knives were thrown into it, the body started glowing blue and flew to the background and hit the floor hard. They all smirked as they heard the big 'Thud'. While that happened something went 'snikt' and two claws popped out of X-23's hands, Scarlet Witch's hands turned a darker blue and the head of the light polls started to face the camera and hiss as if they were snakes. Rogue just looked at the camera, her face seemed to be getting closer to it but far enough to still see the chaos the others were making. Without warning her fist came up and threw a punch at the camera…seconds later there was nothing but static on the computer screen.
Everyone just looked at the screen.
"OOOOKAY…some people desperately need a hug!" Jubilee commented.
"We can't fight these people…we have those other new foes to deal with," Scott said angrily.
"I believe that they were just a distraction…the two groups are on the same team."
"What?"
"Yes," Jean spoke up. "Yesterday before I fainted…an image was sent to me…it showed the two of the woman that we fought with and then it showed the girls we just saw on the tape," Jean said finally understanding why she had gotten the image, it was a warning.
"Prof X and myself were talking about that," Beast spoke up. "It seems that the one who sent you the warning of things to come was the White Queen," as he said this he went to the computer and stared pressing keys on the key board. A couple minutes later the image of the woman in white they had fought the day before showed up in the screen and the new four girls joined the image along with a woman dressed in black and with ten adamantium-laced cybernetic claws.
"Her name is Lady Deathstrike," he said pointing at her.
"Raven, Erik…I was wondering if we may have a discussion," Prof. X asked them. They nodded and soon all the adults were heading to Prof. X office. Before leaving though, Mystique turned to the boys and said, "Play nice." The adults left and the young adults were left to start at the image of their new foes.

X-men
"Something tells me we're in big trouble," Jubes said.
"Yea they look like they're gonna be hard to beat," Tabitha agreed.
"Can we not talk about it…since we know nothing about them it's stressing me out," Rahne said and paced around them.
"Like yea they totally gave me the creeps I mean did you see what they did to that poor man, not to mention the other dead bodies we saw yesterday." Kitty said and looked grossed out at the memory.
"Fine topic change…have you made up with fire boy over there?" Tabby asked Amara. Everyone gave a small smile except Jean who rolled her eyes at the though that one of her team members was going out with the enemy.
"Well…I have forgiven him but I won't talk to him until he talks to me first," Amara answered stubbornly.
"Don't you thing that's like a bit to much…I mean they were only dancing," Kitty said thinking back to the other night. 'They sorta looked cute together' she though and then felt bad because Amara was her friend and their she was defending a girl she didn't even know.
"JUST DANCING…SHE WAS ALL UP ON HIM," Amara yelled.
"Actually from where I was…it seemed like he was enjoin it. Anyway if she was all up on him why exactly didn't he stop her?" Tabitha asked hitting a sore spot in the fiery girl.
While the girls were having their heated conversation the X- boys were getting a front row seat at the pic of their new rivals.
"How old do you think they are?" Roberto asked Ray and got hit on the head by Scott.
'They're our new enemies not our new dates," he said.
"Right" all the single boys, said disappointed. Kurt on the other hand was looking at Rogue and thought, 'So…she's my sister'.

BoM and Acolytes
The boys were also looking at the image of the new mutants.
"I wish I was an X-men," John said breaking the silence. All of them looked at him confuse and shocked. He stared at them.
"What…I'm saying that cause I wouldn't mind fighting…or doing other things with the scarlet Sheila," he answered looking at the picture and laughing hysterically. They guy rolled his eyes.
"You do know your girlfriend is just over there," Lance commented. John looked at Amara and shrugged.
"Anyway do you even know who she is?" Pietro asked his eyes narrowed at his Australian friend.
"No…why?"
"She's my sister." All the guys looked at him with their mouths hanged open. John looked at Scarlet witch and then at Quicksilver.
"Sorry to tell you mate…but you don't share her good looks."
"What are you talking about…we're twins."
"Oh…well I don't see the similarities," John said confused.
"Good…I would of felt a little freaked out if you thought I was hot," Pietro said.
"Yo that's you sister?" Toad asked with stars in his eyes.
"Yeah."
"You think you can introduce us?" Todd asked.
"Uh…no. First of all…believe me she has a temper and second…she probably will want to kill me if she sees me," Pietro answered with some sadness in his voice.
"Why?" John asked.
"My dad put her in a Looney bin when we were younger…all I did was stare as they took her away…screaming for my father and crying," he answered and looked away from the image of her which he though seemed to be looking at him.
"Wow that's harsh…a Looney bin huh? Sounds like my type of woman," Pyro said and again started laughing his ass off. Pietro rolled his eyes and then looked to the other girl who looked very familiar to him.
"I didn't know Marie and your sister knew each other," Lance said also looking at the girl with the white striped bangs.
"I don't think they know…about the connection."
"Wow look at her…she sure has grown…huh?" blob asked.
"Which one is Marie?" John asked.
"The one in black and green," answered Toad.
Gambit looked at the BoM. He had listened to their conversation but had kept his eyes on the green-eyed beauty thinking 'dey de same eyes I saw yesterday'. He was memorized by her until he heard that they knew her.
"You know 'er?" he asked. Lance turned to face him and had a sad look on his face.
"Yeah…she used to be in our group."
"What happen?"
"Mystique made her do something she didn't really like…and something we didn't stop," he answered, regret noticeable in his eyes.
"Did you see what she can do now? She lifted that car over her head and she flew," blob said looking at the picture of his ex-friend.
"That was probably the effect…of what happened then," Lance answered.
"I wonder how she and your sister met up?" John mused while changing looks from one to the other.
"I dunno…last time I heard about her was when they called my dad to tell him she had escaped. We looked for her or clues but there were none. It was as if she had disappeared into thin air. The guards at the asylum said someone broke in but they were all knocked out before they could have a good look at the person," Quicksilver said and looked back at his sis.
"What do you think Xavier's talking to Mystique and Magneto about?" Colossus who had been quiet asked. The guys shrugged but were going to get their answer soon enough since the adults walked into the room.
"We have decided to take action against these new foes and to do that we need all the help we can get, So Eric and I have agreed to an alliance," Prof. X announced to everyone in the rec room. He didn't get an answer as everyone was in shock.

"WHAT?" Lexa shouted at the top of her lungs.
"So…that was only half our mission?" Betts asked as Emma nodded.
"What's the other half?" Wanda asked.
"Well…you guys get to go to the biggest jewelry store with extraordinary objects and try to steal the rare Egyptian Ruby…does that sound like fun?" she asked making it sound like they were little kids and she was telling them about going to the zoo.
"Why would we want tah do that?" Rogue asked uninterested.
"Because if you snag it…it'll look good with Scarlet's wardrobe," Deathstrike joked but got Scarlet Witch attention.
"Actually we don't care about the Ruby…if you take it and want to keep it go ahead," Emma told Wanda who looked pleased by the news.
"Ok if it's not important why are we doing it?" Lexa asked confused. Out of nowhere the white Queen grabbed a lot of files and put them on the coffee table.
"Oh no not another building," Elizabeth whined.
Rogue got a file and opened it to come face to face with a picture of a preppy looking girl with red hair.
"No it's not another building," Emma told Betts and gave her a folder.
"Name: Roberto Da Costa Age: 17 Powers: Can absorb solar energy use it as physical strength
he's hot-tempered Brazilian-boy, He loves the fact that, with his power, he's stronger than everyone else on the team - at least during the sunlight hours."
"These are files on the X-men members…some files will have missing information. Anyway now you have to study these file to get ready for your first encounter with the X-men," White Queen said smirking as she watched Lexa and Wanda grab a file.
Rogue gave a small smirk, "when exactly will we be making this trip for Wanda's present."
"Tomorrow night," Deathstrike answered.
The girls looked through some files and gave small evil smirks.

Sunday night…around 11
"Why exactly are we going to enter from the front door when we parked the cars in the back of the building?" X-23 asked walking besides the rest of the girls.
"Because we had to get this," Psylocke answered and threw what looked like a security alarm and she threw it over her shoulders.
"How are the X-men going to find out we're here?" Scarlet witch asked.
"Ah dunno, White Queen said she'd take care of it," Rogue responded and stopped when she reached the buildings front doors.
"One of us should stay out here and watch out for when they get here," Psylocke suggested.
"I'll do it," X-23 volunteered and turned her back on the doors to look at the streets.
"Uh…how do we break in?"
X-23 rolled her eyes and turned to the door, she stuck a claw into the keyhole and turned it causing the door to open.
"Thahnks," Rogue answered and walked in being followed by Scarlet Witch and Psylocke. X-23 watched them and then once again turned her back on the door.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"I still can't believe we're working with the X-men," John kept mumbling.
"Get over it already…we have to focus," Pietro snapped. John brought his hand up and adjusted the goggles on his forehead down to his eyes, and then he made sure he hadn't messed up his spiked hair.
"Do u really think they're that strong mate?"
"Obviously if it only took duex to bring that big building down," Gambit commented while shuffling his cards.
"What are you gonna do bout yur sister?" Pyro asked Quicksilver.
"Hope she won't recognize me…or that she won't have any hard feelings," he answered looking sick.
"Well if she doesn't kill you, do introduce me," Toad said smiling.
"Ug…I don't think so frog boy."
"Why not…I'm sure I can charm her into liking me…she can become my poopsie," he answered still smiling.
"Believe me…I don't think she's your type," Quicksilver shutting the poor boy up.
"So we're entering from de back and de x-men from the front right?" Gambit asked getting on his bike.
"Yup…well all the X-men except wings over here," Avalanche said throwing a glance at Angel who was walking along with them. An X-men had to go along with the bad boys…and unfortunately for Warren he got picked.
"Can we please just go before we're late," Angel said and sighed. Soon all of them where in a car, a motorcycle or on the cement ready to run.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
X-23 was bored…that is until she saw the jet heading their way and a black jeep closely following.
"Show time" she mumbled and ran inside the jewelry store. She followed her nose and looked for the others.
She found Rogue carefully putting her feet over a censor being careful not to set the alarm.
"There're here!" she shouted making Rogue jump startled. That also caused Rogue to step on the censor and soon there was a big alarm echoing in the building.
"Nice job Lex," Wanda snapped and watch rogue just walk to the case with the Ruby in it and make a hole through the glass with her fist. She got the Ruby and threw it at Wanda who put it in a little Red bag. She threw it at Betts who held on to it.
"Ok we have about one minute before the X-men get here and about 20 for the cops to respond to the alarms," X-23 said and went to stand between Rogue and Psylocke making a straight line horizontally facing the door.
Behind them a girl was phasing through the floor and was holding a guy in her arms lifting him up with her. X-23's eyes narrowed; 'Behind us' she told Psylocke who sent the message to Scarlet Witch. Her hand began to turn blue and she quickly threw her arm behind her making the girl and the boy stuck in the ground.
The boy who she identified as Iceman threw a sharp looking object towards Scarlet Witch. She brought her hand up towards it and threw at the door were a blue boy appeared. He teleported before getting hit and then it was like a parade a lot of people ran in and started attacking them.
X-23 did black flips getting out of the way of any power thrown at her. She stood up and tackled a blue man. He fell hard on the floor and she was going to keep attacking but a bolt of lighting hit her making her fall on the ground.
"Are you okay Beast?" she asked the man.
"Oh yes thanks you storm." Storm was about to attack again as X-23 got up but she looked up and Storm stopped finding her very familiar for some reason. Given the opportunity X-23 popped her claws out. Storm eyes opened wide, now she knew who this young girl reminded her of.
"Wolverine," she said in a whisper but X-23 still heard her and gave her a confused look. Before either could attack something threw Storm towards a wall also causing her to bump into Beast.
X-23 turned to look at what had caused it, Psylocke.
"You know we're not getting paid to stand around," she said smirking.
"What are you talking about…we're not getting paid at all," X-23 said and rolled her eyes then went to start a fight with somebody else.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"Oh Yea," Boom Boom yelled being happy that a lot of her little bombs were exploding with Rogue in the middle of it all. She was to busy being giddy to notice Rogue walk out with out a scratch on her and glaring daggers at her young blond. Before she knew what was happening she was grabbed and thrown towards a glass case with a lot of diamonds in it.
"Ahh,' she screamed but before she could hit the case arms grabbed her by the waist. She looked up at her rescuer.
"Thanks Bobby…I though I was gonna be a goner," she said.
"No problem Tabs."
While that was going on Rogue was being approached by a young blue furred guy. She got in fighting position.
"We won't fight you…please just tell us why your doing this," he started. Rogue stared at him like he was retarded here she was ready to kick his ass and he was on a world peace mission.
"We're doing this cause we want tah," she answered annoyed. She then charged at him but was stopped in mid air. She looked down and noticed Jean Grey holding her back with her telekinesis. A couple seconds later she was let go though because Jean was holding her head. Rogue turned to Betts who had her hands touching her head she was obviously doing something to the older telepath but Rogue didn't really care to find out.
"Get ready to go…do you still have the ruby?" she asked getting ready to leave.
Psylocke shook her head and but kept her concentration on the X-men's telepath. Rogue walked towards the blue guy who started speaking.
"I'm your…" before he could finish she lightly hit the side of his neck but with her force he quickly fell to the ground.
"Scarlet Witch, X, lets go," she called to the others. Scarlet witch stopped attacking Berserker and Sunspot to look at her and almost got knocked down by Cannonball. She threw the poor boy into the rest of the guys when he tried running at her again.
"Killing three birds with one stone," she mumbled and walked towards Rogue.
"Now's a good time to leave since half their members are down," Rogue commented and headed towards the back of the building. She walked out of the room and both walked down a hallway that would lead them to another room and then out to were the cars were. Psylocke caught up real easily.
"Where's X-23?" Rogue demanded.
"She said she'd stall them?"
Psylocke walked faster then the other two and got to the other room first. When she saw what was waiting her eyes widened.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
/Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me/
"SHIT!"
"What" Rogue asked going inside the room and saw about 10 people if not more waiting for them.
"About Bloody time," The one with Orange hair said making it obvious they had been waiting for a while.
"Rogue…I don't remember reading a profile on any of these guys," Psylocke said nervously.
"Me neither," she answered.
"Hey why are you guys just standing around for…the x-men…" X-23 stopped in the middle of the room catching sight of the new people.
"Who are they?" she asked Scarlet.
"Wish I knew," she answered. Rogue looked at half of them…they seemed really familiar. She didn't realize who they were until she stared at the one with Brown hair and a weird looking helmet on his head.
/Distracting, reacting/
"Well Well well if it isn't the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants," she said walking towards him.
"Marie" he started.
"Its Rogue…what the hell are you guys doing here?" she asked.
"Stopping you," A boy with silver hair came up next to avalanche and the turned to the Scarlet Witch. "Hey sis."
/Against my will I stand beside my own reflection/
Scarlet' Witch's eyes narrowed, "Why you," she said dangerously walking towards him.
/It's haunting how I can't seem
To find myself again/
"Did he say sis…as in sister?" X-23 asked Psylocke who looked confused that Wanda and Rogue knew some of these people.
Scarlet witch's hands were turning a dark blue and stuff stared flying around. With out warning her powers got to the closest person that it could reach and threw him to a wall, pinning him there.
"Bloody Hell" Pyro said looking at the ground from his position on the wall. Rogue found this as a good opportunity to attack the closet guy in front of her so she flew straight at him. Before she could hit him she stopped right in front of him less than a yard away.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you," a voice told them. Rogue and Scarlet turned to look at a man dressed in all red; he also had a funny helmet on his head. They were both going to ignore him and cause pain to those that were inches away from them but…
"Rogue," Psylocke said and pointed up. Rogue and scarlet looked up to see X-23 floating in the air, many metal object surrounding her and one of them was on her neck getting ready to choke her.
/My walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence/
A blue woman came out of the center of the group, "Be the good little girls we brought up," she said looking at Rogue. Rogue's eyes narrowed, "Mystique," she spat out like poison.
/I'm convinced that it's too much pressure to take
I've felt this way before
So insecure/
"Hello my dear."
"Wanda be a good girl and let Pyro go," Magneto demanded. Wanda looked at the man who spoke, she didn't recognize him until.
"Now that I have finally found you do tell me how you got out of the insane asylum." Wanda's eyes turned colder than ever, "Father". Magneto smiled at his oldest child. Scarlet was about to attack him.
/Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal/
"Wanda Don't!" Psylocke said still keeping her attention on X-23 and not really caring that her friend had called that man father.
'Lex can't move…it's like he's controlling her,' Psylocke told her other two teammates.
'He probably is…he has the ability to control metal' Wanda answered and looked at X-23 who was still floating in midair and looked like she was choking. Scarlet Witch let her hold on the one named Pyro go and he fell hard next to her. Rogue who was floating in front of the guy she was gonna attack slowly landed on the ground. She looked up and met Red on black eyes.
'So this is the guy ah saw yesterday' she thought looking him up and down forgetting her traitor of a mother was feet away.
Scarlet Witch was looking at her father but turned to look at the guy dressed in orange since next to her cause it seemed he was talking to himself. The girls didn't say anything…except X-23 who seemed to be fighting for air.
'Uh Rogue…we have to find a way to knock that gut out so Lex can be set free…It's no time to check out the competition' Psylocke told Rogue telepathically because Rogue was still staring at the guy with Red eyes.
"What do you want with us?" Rogue asked turning to glare at Mystique, giving Psylocke the time to think of a way to get Magneto out of the way.
"As a member of the team we want to know who your working for…as your mother I want to know where you've been and why you haven't called…I'm sure Eric feels the same," she finished and looked at Scarlet Witch.
/Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real/
"Oh so it's now that you want to act like a parent," Scarlet said glaring at Magneto.
/Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal/
The girls could tell Magneto and Mystique felt confident that they had beaten them only because they were endangering the life of one of them. Of course if they had taken them more seriously they all would have noticed the glass cases heading towards Magneto's head. Seconds later after Wanda spoke Magneto fell down unconscious and X-23 fell to the ground landing perfectly in on her feet. She was gasping for air but then stood straight and looked like she was ready to kick ass. They BoM and acolytes got a little nervous not knowing what would happen now.
X-23 ran to the closest person and started fighting them; the guy she was fighting with turned into metal and threw her out of the way, accidentally throwing her onto Quicksilver who wasn't to quick to get out of the way. They both ended up lying on the floor, x-23 on top of him. They both opened their eyes and just stared at each other like idiots. (LOL)
"Uh X…you may want to start with the ass kicking," Rogue told her fighting off the metal guy. X-23 quickly got off and went to help. Seeing as X-23 was going to get Colossus Rogue turned her attention to Blob who was making his way towards her.
"Look Marie I don't want to hurt you," he said.
"It's ROGUE…and actually Fred it's meh who's gonna be hurting yah," and with that she grabbed his hand and slammed him into mystique. 'Revenge is sweet' she thought, thinking about her now squished step-mom. She then felt someone stand behind her and she quickly turned around to attack. She froze. Red eyes were looking into her green ones as if they could see through her soul. For some reason she couldn't do anything but stare…and he just stood there looking at her too. (BWAHAHAHAHA)
Psylocke looked up in the air at the guy with wings who was annoying the hell out of her, she would have played with him…and his mind if she hadn't notice the X-men start arriving.
'Shit…we're gonna get cornered' she thought and looked at the guy with wings.
"Psylocke say's kiss the floor," she said and threw her hand up towards him, psychic knives appeared and were shot at him making him end up on the ground landing with a nice bam. Before she could warn the others about the X-men getting there…they were surrounded.
Scarlet Witch wasn't paying attention to anything around her. At the moment she was staring into the blurry eyes of Pyro (she can't see what color of his eyes are cause of the goggles). Her hand was raised and up near her shoulder but she wasn't attacking and for a good reason to.
Pyro was standing less than five feet away; his flamethrower very close to her face but no fire was coming out. They just looked at each other wondering who would make the first move. They would have kept that little staring contest going if someone hadn't interrupted. Toad walked in between them.
"Hey yo…I'm Toad," he said charmingly. "I was wondering if after the fight you might wanna go grab an ice-cream or something? Anyway we barley met so let me tell you about myself…I'm single, I like flies and long walks on the beach…" he kept going on and Scarlet Witch kept blinking confused. She looked over the little guy's head to stare at Pyro who seemed like he wanted to kill the frog boy.
Finally getting tired of his talk, Scarlet Witch hexed him making him go flying across the room. Pyro looked at Toad flying away which was a mistake since he didn't notice his body was now glowing blue. He finally noticed and also noticed the Scarlet Witch had gotten closer and was less than a foot away. He tried to move to get his flamethrowers ready but he couldn't move at all.
"You know…it's bad to turn your back on an opponent especially if you don't know what to expect of them," She told him in a dangerous tone while smirking. Pyro couldn't' help but smirk at her, Scarlet Witch noticed and frowned. (Oh lala...lol)
"What are you smirking at…you do know I'm about to hex you 25 feet into the air right?" she asked annoyed and got into his face. 'Feisty…just the way I like em' he though and noticed that the X-men had arrived.
"Uh…shelia…look behind you," he said looking down at her, which was very easy since their nose were inches apart. She slowly turned and noticed all the X-men, acolytes, and BoM members (except magneto) had formed a circle…with Rogue, Psylocke, X-23 and herself in the center of it all. Wanda looked at Rogue was staring at her with a 'are you finished yet' look. Scarlet Witch let the hold on Pyro go and walked towards the center where her partners in crime were…she never turned her back on Pyro.
"Well this is going just as planned," she mumbled standing next to X-23.
"This isn't fair…we got caught off guard," X-23 whined. Rogue was looking around looking for a way out not knowing psylocke had found it.
Jean Grey stepped into the circle and slowly started walking towards them.
"Look we don't want to fight…we just want to know why you're doing this and who sent you," she said nicely.
"Why don't you just come up here and find out?" Psylocke asked tapping the side of her head with her finger. Jean didn't answer.
"Yah have tried…but noticed our shield…right?" Rogue asked looking happy at the fact that their shields were so strong that not even the greatest telepath's #1 student could break it down.
Psylocke took this time to tell Rogue about their ticket out.
'Rogue…she's closer to you…grab her…The X-men leader is in love with her and he would do anything in exchange for her'
Rogue looked at Jean and noticed that she was about a foot away. With a speed that put Quicksilver to shame Rogue grabbed jean and held her with one of her (Jeans') arms behind her. Rogue was holding onto the arm and with her other hand had Jean's head pulled back by her hair.
Scott stared freaking out and the other members got ready to attack. X-23 who was quick had her fist against Jeans neck as soon as she saw Jubilees hands rise up in the air.
"I wouldn't do anything stupid," Scarlet witch commented.
"If any of you do anything…I swear my claws will go through her neck quicker than you can say X-23," X-23 threatened. No one moved except Cyclops who looked like he was going to throw one of his optic blasts at X-23 but Psylocke spoke.
"How many cops died on Friday when we brought Sefton enterprises down?" she asked him innocently.
Cyclops glared at her but answered anyway, "4 cops died and five people who were in the building."
"Only four?" X-23 said disappointed. "And here my goal was five" she said sadly and then looked from Jean to him. "Would you like me to reach my goal now?" she asked.
Jean wasn't saying anything because she was concentrating on levitating a glass case behind the four evil girls. Jean then mentally threw it towards X-23's head. Before it could even get near X-23 Rogue got to it and threw it towards Avalanche. The case was about to hit him when a petite girl hugged him and the case went right threw them and hit the wall. X-23 had heard the case rising with her good hearing and as soon as it crashed into the wall, 'Snikt' her other hand came up to Jeans forehead and two claws were now resting on it.
"I wouldn't try that again princess," she growled.
"X-23 killed those police officers without hesitation…what makes yah think she won't do it tah her?" Rogue asked Cyclops.
"What do you want?" he asked defeated.
"Nothing really…we'll just get out of yah way now," Rogue said and stared walking towards the exit that lead to the back of the building where their cars still waited. The circle was broken as she walked by. The only one who didn't move was gambit who was standing right in front of the direction Rogue was walking. She looked up at him, "We'll see each other again soon," she said talking to everyone in the room but only looking at gambit, she then brushed by him and walked outside.
Scarlet Witch followed her hands glowing blue ready to attack if she had to. "We'll finish this later," she said and gave Pyro a quick glance. Before she exited the room though…she hexed her fathers unconscious body into a wall and watched as Pietro ran to it. She gave her twin an evil smile and walked outside.
/Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real/
X-23 went next dragging Jean with her and psylocke followed close behind.
"Don't worry…Ms. Grey will be fine once we get outside," she told Cyclops who was watching their every move.
"Just make sure you don't follow," X-23 added and walked through the door. Psylocke turned to look at them all and gave a cheerful smile, "Until next time," she said and closed the door behind her. Seconds after the door closed they all rushed to the door and tried opening but no matter what they did it wouldn't open. Kitty couldn't even phase through it.
"Come on…we'll have to go through the front," Scott yelled and ran back to the other rooms they had passed to reach the one they were currently in.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
When X-23 reached the cars she noticed that Rogue was already on her motorcycle ready to leave. Wanda was also in the driver's seat of her Honda civic.
"Well Ms. Grey…it was fun," Psylocke told the other telepath.
"Next time we won't be caught off guard…meaning…you won't be so lucky," X-23 told her and then slammed Jeans head into the door of Wanda's car.
"X…don't forget this is my car," Wanda yelled angrily.
"Whoops," Lexa answered sheepishly getting into the car. "Sorry" she gave an apologetic look at Wanda. Psylocke gently moved Jean's body and put it on the sidewalk. She then walked towards the car and got in the back seat. The cars started and the girls were off.
"Something tells me tonight didn't go as planned," Lexa mumbled looking back to make sure they weren't being followed.
"It's not our fault…you think White Queen will be mad?" Betts asked.
"I don't know…but she and Sinister are gonna have some explaining to do," Wanda said with narrowed eyes.
/There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing what is real/
'What the hell was my father doing there?' she thought. Up a head of them, Rogue was asking herself the same question except she was wondering what the Brotherhood were doing there…and why hadn't she attacked the guy with the red eyes.
/This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling, confusing what is real /

Chapter 6
Saturday…10:00 am
"Are they still sleeping?" Yuriko asked walking into the Kitchen where Emma was sipping some of her coffee and watching TV.
"Yup" she answered without looking at the other adult.
"Shouldn't we wake them up to tell them the other part of their mission?"
"Not yet…I think they deserve to sleep in a bit later considering what a good job they did last night," and saying that she pointed to the TV which was on the news. Deathstrike looked towards the TV and turned the volume up to hear what they were saying.
"As you can see behind me, Sefton Enterprises has been destroyed without there being any clue to how it might have happened. Police officers are investigating the cause and at the moment think a seriously dangerous force of nature might have caused it. They even suggest an earthquake even though most people should have felt such a force. A lot of the public has a different opinion though. Yesterday at around midnight there was a call to the police force talking about a disturbance in one of the main cement blocks that held the building up. Unfortunately, the police officers that arrived to investigate can not tell us what has happened as they are in the hospital being treated for they seem to be stuck in a traumatized state. Some officers died along with five employees from the company. There will be a public tribute and funeral for all who would like to pay respects to the people that tragically lost their lives. That's all the news we have on the situation at the moment. Please join us at the 6 o'clock news where we will have an interview with the Sefton's. Back to you…Charlie."
'Click' and the TV turned off.
"That was the easy part of the mission…you think they'll be ready for the next?" Yuriko asked Emma.
"I have faith they'll do just fine…they're strong and they have confidence in each other as well as in themselves."
"What did you think about the X-Men?"
"They weren't what I was expecting…they almost beat us so I definitely have to give them credit."
"Well hopefully they won't think we were that hard to beat…because if they had a hard time with us…they have no idea what they're about to meet." Deathstrike looked up the stairs that lead to the bedrooms where four girls were sleeping peacefully…for now. Emma just smirked at the comment and faced the ceiling.

3:00 X-Mansion
Ding Dong
Kitty went to answer the door and when she opened it her jaw almost fell to the ground. There in front of her…were all the members of the Acolytes and the Brotherhood members.
"Like OMG what are you like doing here?" she asked the leaders who were in the front of the line.
"We were called by Xavier…he said it was important and that it would interest us greatly," answered Mystique annoyed.
"Like yeah right…if this is some kind of trap to like catch us off guard it isn't going to work," Kitty replied defensively.
"Kitty that is no way to treat our guest," a voice behind her said and Kitty turned around to face Jean. Jean walked past her and towards her enemies.
"Professor Xavier has been expecting your arrival."
"He has?" as a baffled Shadowcat. Jean turned to look at her.
"Yes…Kitty would you go and get the rest of the team in the rec room. The professor has called a meeting," Jean told the younger girl. Kitty nodded looked at her foes and then phased through the wall and went to look for other members.
"What is this all about," Magneto asked.
"I don't know. Prof. X just told me to come greet you and show you to the rec room. Please follow me," with that she turned around and led them to the room.
A couple of minutes later all the X-men, Acolytes and Brotherhood members were gathered together in the rec room. The x-men guys were glaring at bad boys who just glared back.
"Eric, Raven…thank you for coming," Professor X told them politely while entering the room. Both adults nodded their heads but then asked what was so important that he had asked the enemies to come into his home.
"I'm sure you all know about the trouble that happened yesterday…Sefton Enterprises mysteriously turned into ruins last night."
"Yes…it's been all over the news," Mystique answered a little annoyed.
"I now know what caused it…and half of what did was at one point your responsibility."
Magneto and Mystique looked confused as Prof. X continued.
"My good friends teh Seftons came early this morning to give me this," he said a lifted a video tape up. Xavier put the tape into the VCR and all the boys stop their glaring contest to see what was on the tape.
At first there was nothing but the night and a few of the lights on the street were visible. Then a black car stopped in front of the building and four girls were seen getting out. Their faces couldn't be seen well because the camera image was so far away.
The camera showed as they entered the parking lot section of the building and then come out a couple minutes later. One stayed outside while the others went back, she seemed to be waiting for something. A girl dressed in red come out and broke into the building through a window from the second floor with the help of…a light poll.
The people watching the tape then watched as police officers arrived and brutally got beaten by the girl who was waiting outside.
"Oh god," most of the girls said and gasped as they saw the young woman unleash claws from her hand and poke the officers eyes out.
Then they watched as the other girls came out and one walked out of site. A couple minutes' later cars were floating around and one of the girls was holding a car above her head. They crashed the cars into the building and then two flew away.
Everyone in the room watched as the building collapsed and everyone was quiet and just looked around the room as nothing but the ruins were seen for a while. After a while Mystique spoke.
"Why would that interest us?" she asked impatiently. Xavier sighed; a frown then graced his face.
"The answer will be shown to you soon enough."
Everyone turned their attention back to the screen where the young mischievous girls reappeared. One walked out of sight and the other just looked around. Suddenly something popped up in front of the camera and startled everyone in the rec room.
A dark girl with intense blue eyes looked straight into the camera and smirked. She then did what sounded like a whistle to them and watched as the other three young ladies walked towards them. The girl who had bluish black hair backed away from the camera and gave view to the other girls.
One with dark purple hair looked like she was walking through the air as she floated up and looked at the camera. The one dressed in red threw her hand at two light polls and they came to life lifting her up around the waist to get her in better view. The last one crossed her arms from the ground and slowly seems to fly up into a better camera view.
All the boys looked at them with their jaws open. They would be lying if they said these mysterious girls weren't HOT. Jean turned to look at Cyclops.
"Scott…what are you looking at?" she asked jealously.
"Ahh…nothing honey," he said closing his mouth. Amara turned to John and glared at his reaction but he didn't seem to notice. Prof. X paused the image on the screen since all the faces could be seen clearly.
"Do any of them look familiar?" he asked.
Eric and raven stared at the screen in shock before they both they each said one word.
"Marie"
"Wanda"
The brotherhood boys looked at the girl with green eyes and two stripes in her hair…their ex member. Pietro looked at Marie and then faced the girl who looked very familiar…his sister.
"It's been a while since either of you have seen them," Xavier commented looking at both shocked parents.
"They…did that?" Magneto asked looking at the daughter he had not seen in a couple of years.
"Yes"
"How is it possible they are here?" Mystique demanded.
"We are not sure but we're trying to find out everything we can about it." Xavier responded and continued the tape.
"Hello…X-men," the purple haired one spoke.
"I'm Psylocke…and we're here to give you a message," she smiled evilly. Before she could say anything else the one with midnight hair disappeared. The three watched her leave.
Psylocke kept talking and said, "That's Rogue and that's…"
"I can say my own name," the girl with short shoulder length hair and red tips said looking at the purpled haired girl.
"Then say it," came the southern drawl next to her.
"Scarlet Witch," she said now looking very annoyed. The missing girl returned but came with something else. It was a body…a police officers body…and his eyes looked like they were dug out of his eyes sockets. She put her fingers on his cheeks and squished them together so they could open.
"Mercy," she said in a deep voice. While moving the lips. She then looked at the camera, "What is Mercy?" she asked in a light voice and then without hesitation she let the body drop with a big 'Thud' on the ground. (X-23 is up in a tree…just to let everyone know lol)
The X-Men's face showed shock and disgust. The other girls smiled at what their friend had just done.
"That's X-23...anyway you know in life…there's a time to stand and fight," Psylocke said.
"And then there's a time to run and hide," X-23 spat out.
"We suggest…" Scarlet Witch continued.
"You run," Rogue finished and her eyes seem to have an evil glint in them. After saying the officer's body seemed to float back up to where the camera was. Psylocke raised her hand towards it psychic knives were thrown into it, the body started glowing blue and flew to the background and hit the floor hard. They all smirked as they heard the big 'Thud'. While that happened something went 'snikt' and two claws popped out of X-23's hands, Scarlet Witch's hands turned a darker blue and the head of the light polls started to face the camera and hiss as if they were snakes. Rogue just looked at the camera, her face seemed to be getting closer to it but far enough to still see the chaos the others were making. Without warning her fist came up and threw a punch at the camera…seconds later there was nothing but static on the computer screen.
Everyone just looked at the screen.
"OOOOKAY…some people desperately need a hug!" Jubilee commented.
"We can't fight these people…we have those other new foes to deal with," Scott said angrily.
"I believe that they were just a distraction…the two groups are on the same team."
"What?"
"Yes," Jean spoke up. "Yesterday before I fainted…an image was sent to me…it showed the two of the woman that we fought with and then it showed the girls we just saw on the tape," Jean said finally understanding why she had gotten the image, it was a warning.
"Prof X and myself were talking about that," Beast spoke up. "It seems that the one who sent you the warning of things to come was the White Queen," as he said this he went to the computer and stared pressing keys on the key board. A couple minutes later the image of the woman in white they had fought the day before showed up in the screen and the new four girls joined the image along with a woman dressed in black and with ten adamantium-laced cybernetic claws.
"Her name is Lady Deathstrike," he said pointing at her.
"Raven, Erik…I was wondering if we may have a discussion," Prof. X asked them. They nodded and soon all the adults were heading to Prof. X office. Before leaving though, Mystique turned to the boys and said, "Play nice." The adults left and the young adults were left to start at the image of their new foes.

X-men
"Something tells me we're in big trouble," Jubes said.
"Yea they look like they're gonna be hard to beat," Tabitha agreed.
"Can we not talk about it…since we know nothing about them it's stressing me out," Rahne said and paced around them.
"Like yea they totally gave me the creeps I mean did you see what they did to that poor man, not to mention the other dead bodies we saw yesterday." Kitty said and looked grossed out at the memory.
"Fine topic change…have you made up with fire boy over there?" Tabby asked Amara. Everyone gave a small smile except Jean who rolled her eyes at the though that one of her team members was going out with the enemy.
"Well…I have forgiven him but I won't talk to him until he talks to me first," Amara answered stubbornly.
"Don't you thing that's like a bit to much…I mean they were only dancing," Kitty said thinking back to the other night. 'They sorta looked cute together' she though and then felt bad because Amara was her friend and their she was defending a girl she didn't even know.
"JUST DANCING…SHE WAS ALL UP ON HIM," Amara yelled.
"Actually from where I was…it seemed like he was enjoin it. Anyway if she was all up on him why exactly didn't he stop her?" Tabitha asked hitting a sore spot in the fiery girl.
While the girls were having their heated conversation the X- boys were getting a front row seat at the pic of their new rivals.
"How old do you think they are?" Roberto asked Ray and got hit on the head by Scott.
'They're our new enemies not our new dates," he said.
"Right" all the single boys, said disappointed. Kurt on the other hand was looking at Rogue and thought, 'So…she's my sister'.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
BoM and Acolytes
The boys were also looking at the image of the new mutants.
"I wish I was an X-men," John said breaking the silence. All of them looked at him confuse and shocked. He stared at them.
"What…I'm saying that cause I wouldn't mind fighting…or doing other things with the scarlet Sheila," he answered looking at the picture and laughing hysterically. They guy rolled his eyes.
"You do know your girlfriend is just over there," Lance commented. John looked at Amara and shrugged.
"Anyway do you even know who she is?" Pietro asked his eyes narrowed at his Australian friend.
"No…why?"
"She's my sister." All the guys looked at him with their mouths hanged open. John looked at Scarlet witch and then at Quicksilver.
"Sorry to tell you mate…but you don't share her good looks."
"What are you talking about…we're twins."
"Oh…well I don't see the similarities," John said confused.
"Good…I would of felt a little freaked out if you thought I was hot," Pietro said.
"Yo that's you sister?" Toad asked with stars in his eyes.
"Yeah."
"You think you can introduce us?" Todd asked.
"Uh…no. First of all…believe me she has a temper and second…she probably will want to kill me if she sees me," Pietro answered with some sadness in his voice.
"Why?" John asked.
"My dad put her in a Looney bin when we were younger…all I did was stare as they took her away…screaming for my father and crying," he answered and looked away from the image of her which he though seemed to be looking at him.
"Wow that's harsh…a Looney bin huh? Sounds like my type of woman," Pyro said and again started laughing his ass off. Pietro rolled his eyes and then looked to the other girl who looked very familiar to him.
"I didn't know Marie and your sister knew each other," Lance said also looking at the girl with the white striped bangs.
"I don't think they know…about the connection."
"Wow look at her…she sure has grown…huh?" blob asked.
"Which one is Marie?" John asked.
"The one in black and green," answered Toad.
Gambit looked at the BoM. He had listened to their conversation but had kept his eyes on the green-eyed beauty thinking 'dey de same eyes I saw yesterday'. He was memorized by her until he heard that they knew her.
"You know 'er?" he asked. Lance turned to face him and had a sad look on his face.
"Yeah…she used to be in our group."
"What happen?"
"Mystique made her do something she didn't really like…and something we didn't stop," he answered, regret noticeable in his eyes.
"Did you see what she can do now? She lifted that car over her head and she flew," blob said looking at the picture of his ex-friend.
"That was probably the effect…of what happened then," Lance answered.
"I wonder how she and your sister met up?" John mused while changing looks from one to the other.
"I dunno…last time I heard about her was when they called my dad to tell him she had escaped. We looked for her or clues but there were none. It was as if she had disappeared into thin air. The guards at the asylum said someone broke in but they were all knocked out before they could have a good look at the person," Quicksilver said and looked back at his sis.
"What do you think Xavier's talking to Mystique and Magneto about?" Colossus who had been quiet asked. The guys shrugged but were going to get their answer soon enough since the adults walked into the room.
"We have decided to take action against these new foes and to do that we need all the help we can get, So Eric and I have agreed to an alliance," Prof. X announced to everyone in the rec room. He didn't get an answer as everyone was in shock.

"WHAT?" Lexa shouted at the top of her lungs.
"So…that was only half our mission?" Betts asked as Emma nodded.
"What's the other half?" Wanda asked.
"Well…you guys get to go to the biggest jewelry store with extraordinary objects and try to steal the rare Egyptian Ruby…does that sound like fun?" she asked making it sound like they were little kids and she was telling them about going to the zoo.
"Why would we want tah do that?" Rogue asked uninterested.
"Because if you snag it…it'll look good with Scarlet's wardrobe," Deathstrike joked but got Scarlet Witch attention.
"Actually we don't care about the Ruby…if you take it and want to keep it go ahead," Emma told Wanda who looked pleased by the news.
"Ok if it's not important why are we doing it?" Lexa asked confused. Out of nowhere the white Queen grabbed a lot of files and put them on the coffee table.
"Oh no not another building," Elizabeth whined.
Rogue got a file and opened it to come face to face with a picture of a preppy looking girl with red hair.
"No it's not another building," Emma told Betts and gave her a folder.
"Name: Roberto Da Costa Age: 17 Powers: Can absorb solar energy use it as physical strength
he's hot-tempered Brazilian-boy, He loves the fact that, with his power, he's stronger than everyone else on the team - at least during the sunlight hours."
"These are files on the X-men members…some files will have missing information. Anyway now you have to study these file to get ready for your first encounter with the X-men," White Queen said smirking as she watched Lexa and Wanda grab a file.
Rogue gave a small smirk, "when exactly will we be making this trip for Wanda's present."
"Tomorrow night," Deathstrike answered.
The girls looked through some files and gave small evil smirks.

Sunday night…around 11
"Why exactly are we going to enter from the front door when we parked the cars in the back of the building?" X-23 asked walking besides the rest of the girls.
"Because we had to get this," Psylocke answered and threw what looked like a security alarm and she threw it over her shoulders.
"How are the X-men going to find out we're here?" Scarlet witch asked.
"Ah dunno, White Queen said she'd take care of it," Rogue responded and stopped when she reached the buildings front doors.
"One of us should stay out here and watch out for when they get here," Psylocke suggested.
"I'll do it," X-23 volunteered and turned her back on the doors to look at the streets.
"Uh…how do we break in?"
X-23 rolled her eyes and turned to the door, she stuck a claw into the keyhole and turned it causing the door to open.
"Thahnks," Rogue answered and walked in being followed by Scarlet Witch and Psylocke. X-23 watched them and then once again turned her back on the door.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"I still can't believe we're working with the X-men," John kept mumbling.
"Get over it already…we have to focus," Pietro snapped. John brought his hand up and adjusted the goggles on his forehead down to his eyes, and then he made sure he hadn't messed up his spiked hair.
"Do u really think they're that strong mate?"
"Obviously if it only took duex to bring that big building down," Gambit commented while shuffling his cards.
"What are you gonna do bout yur sister?" Pyro asked Quicksilver.
"Hope she won't recognize me…or that she won't have any hard feelings," he answered looking sick.
"Well if she doesn't kill you, do introduce me," Toad said smiling.
"Ug…I don't think so frog boy."
"Why not…I'm sure I can charm her into liking me…she can become my poopsie," he answered still smiling.
"Believe me…I don't think she's your type," Quicksilver shutting the poor boy up.
"So we're entering from de back and de x-men from the front right?" Gambit asked getting on his bike.
"Yup…well all the X-men except wings over here," Avalanche said throwing a glance at Angel who was walking along with them. An X-men had to go along with the bad boys…and unfortunately for Warren he got picked.
"Can we please just go before we're late," Angel said and sighed. Soon all of them where in a car, a motorcycle or on the cement ready to run.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
X-23 was bored…that is until she saw the jet heading their way and a black jeep closely following.
"Show time" she mumbled and ran inside the jewelry store. She followed her nose and looked for the others.
She found Rogue carefully putting her feet over a censor being careful not to set the alarm.
"There're here!" she shouted making Rogue jump startled. That also caused Rogue to step on the censor and soon there was a big alarm echoing in the building.
"Nice job Lex," Wanda snapped and watch rogue just walk to the case with the Ruby in it and make a hole through the glass with her fist. She got the Ruby and threw it at Wanda who put it in a little Red bag. She threw it at Betts who held on to it.
"Ok we have about one minute before the X-men get here and about 20 for the cops to respond to the alarms," X-23 said and went to stand between Rogue and Psylocke making a straight line horizontally facing the door.
Behind them a girl was phasing through the floor and was holding a guy in her arms lifting him up with her. X-23's eyes narrowed; 'Behind us' she told Psylocke who sent the message to Scarlet Witch. Her hand began to turn blue and she quickly threw her arm behind her making the girl and the boy stuck in the ground.
The boy who she identified as Iceman threw a sharp looking object towards Scarlet Witch. She brought her hand up towards it and threw at the door were a blue boy appeared. He teleported before getting hit and then it was like a parade a lot of people ran in and started attacking them.
X-23 did black flips getting out of the way of any power thrown at her. She stood up and tackled a blue man. He fell hard on the floor and she was going to keep attacking but a bolt of lighting hit her making her fall on the ground.
"Are you okay Beast?" she asked the man.
"Oh yes thanks you storm." Storm was about to attack again as X-23 got up but she looked up and Storm stopped finding her very familiar for some reason. Given the opportunity X-23 popped her claws out. Storm eyes opened wide, now she knew who this young girl reminded her of.
"Wolverine," she said in a whisper but X-23 still heard her and gave her a confused look. Before either could attack something threw Storm towards a wall also causing her to bump into Beast.
X-23 turned to look at what had caused it, Psylocke.
"You know we're not getting paid to stand around," she said smirking.
"What are you talking about…we're not getting paid at all," X-23 said and rolled her eyes then went to start a fight with somebody else.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"Oh Yea," Boom Boom yelled being happy that a lot of her little bombs were exploding with Rogue in the middle of it all. She was to busy being giddy to notice Rogue walk out with out a scratch on her and glaring daggers at her young blond. Before she knew what was happening she was grabbed and thrown towards a glass case with a lot of diamonds in it.
"Ahh,' she screamed but before she could hit the case arms grabbed her by the waist. She looked up at her rescuer.
"Thanks Bobby…I though I was gonna be a goner," she said.
"No problem Tabs."
While that was going on Rogue was being approached by a young blue furred guy. She got in fighting position.
"We won't fight you…please just tell us why your doing this," he started. Rogue stared at him like he was retarded here she was ready to kick his ass and he was on a world peace mission.
"We're doing this cause we want tah," she answered annoyed. She then charged at him but was stopped in mid air. She looked down and noticed Jean Grey holding her back with her telekinesis. A couple seconds later she was let go though because Jean was holding her head. Rogue turned to Betts who had her hands touching her head she was obviously doing something to the older telepath but Rogue didn't really care to find out.
"Get ready to go…do you still have the ruby?" she asked getting ready to leave.
Psylocke shook her head and but kept her concentration on the X-men's telepath. Rogue walked towards the blue guy who started speaking.
"I'm your…" before he could finish she lightly hit the side of his neck but with her force he quickly fell to the ground.
"Scarlet Witch, X, lets go," she called to the others. Scarlet witch stopped attacking Berserker and Sunspot to look at her and almost got knocked down by Cannonball. She threw the poor boy into the rest of the guys when he tried running at her again.
"Killing three birds with one stone," she mumbled and walked towards Rogue.
"Now's a good time to leave since half their members are down," Rogue commented and headed towards the back of the building. She walked out of the room and both walked down a hallway that would lead them to another room and then out to were the cars were. Psylocke caught up real easily.
"Where's X-23?" Rogue demanded.
"She said she'd stall them?"
Psylocke walked faster then the other two and got to the other room first. When she saw what was waiting her eyes widened.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
/Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me/
"SHIT!"
"What" Rogue asked going inside the room and saw about 10 people if not more waiting for them.
"About Bloody time," The one with Orange hair said making it obvious they had been waiting for a while.
"Rogue…I don't remember reading a profile on any of these guys," Psylocke said nervously.
"Me neither," she answered.
"Hey why are you guys just standing around for…the x-men…" X-23 stopped in the middle of the room catching sight of the new people.
"Who are they?" she asked Scarlet.
"Wish I knew," she answered. Rogue looked at half of them…they seemed really familiar. She didn't realize who they were until she stared at the one with Brown hair and a weird looking helmet on his head.
/Distracting, reacting/
"Well Well well if it isn't the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants," she said walking towards him.
"Marie" he started.
"Its Rogue…what the hell are you guys doing here?" she asked.
"Stopping you," A boy with silver hair came up next to avalanche and the turned to the Scarlet Witch. "Hey sis."
/Against my will I stand beside my own reflection/
Scarlet' Witch's eyes narrowed, "Why you," she said dangerously walking towards him.
/It's haunting how I can't seem
To find myself again/
"Did he say sis…as in sister?" X-23 asked Psylocke who looked confused that Wanda and Rogue knew some of these people.
Scarlet witch's hands were turning a dark blue and stuff stared flying around. With out warning her powers got to the closest person that it could reach and threw him to a wall, pinning him there.
"Bloody Hell" Pyro said looking at the ground from his position on the wall. Rogue found this as a good opportunity to attack the closet guy in front of her so she flew straight at him. Before she could hit him she stopped right in front of him less than a yard away.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you," a voice told them. Rogue and Scarlet turned to look at a man dressed in all red; he also had a funny helmet on his head. They were both going to ignore him and cause pain to those that were inches away from them but…
"Rogue," Psylocke said and pointed up. Rogue and scarlet looked up to see X-23 floating in the air, many metal object surrounding her and one of them was on her neck getting ready to choke her.
/My walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence/
A blue woman came out of the center of the group, "Be the good little girls we brought up," she said looking at Rogue. Rogue's eyes narrowed, "Mystique," she spat out like poison.
/I'm convinced that it's too much pressure to take
I've felt this way before
So insecure/
"Hello my dear."
"Wanda be a good girl and let Pyro go," Magneto demanded. Wanda looked at the man who spoke, she didn't recognize him until.
"Now that I have finally found you do tell me how you got out of the insane asylum." Wanda's eyes turned colder than ever, "Father". Magneto smiled at his oldest child. Scarlet was about to attack him.
/Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal/
"Wanda Don't!" Psylocke said still keeping her attention on X-23 and not really caring that her friend had called that man father.
'Lex can't move…it's like he's controlling her,' Psylocke told her other two teammates.
'He probably is…he has the ability to control metal' Wanda answered and looked at X-23 who was still floating in midair and looked like she was choking. Scarlet Witch let her hold on the one named Pyro go and he fell hard next to her. Rogue who was floating in front of the guy she was gonna attack slowly landed on the ground. She looked up and met Red on black eyes.
'So this is the guy ah saw yesterday' she thought looking him up and down forgetting her traitor of a mother was feet away.
Scarlet Witch was looking at her father but turned to look at the guy dressed in orange since next to her cause it seemed he was talking to himself. The girls didn't say anything…except X-23 who seemed to be fighting for air.
'Uh Rogue…we have to find a way to knock that gut out so Lex can be set free…It's no time to check out the competition' Psylocke told Rogue telepathically because Rogue was still staring at the guy with Red eyes.
"What do you want with us?" Rogue asked turning to glare at Mystique, giving Psylocke the time to think of a way to get Magneto out of the way.
"As a member of the team we want to know who your working for…as your mother I want to know where you've been and why you haven't called…I'm sure Eric feels the same," she finished and looked at Scarlet Witch.
/Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real/
"Oh so it's now that you want to act like a parent," Scarlet said glaring at Magneto.
/Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal/
The girls could tell Magneto and Mystique felt confident that they had beaten them only because they were endangering the life of one of them. Of course if they had taken them more seriously they all would have noticed the glass cases heading towards Magneto's head. Seconds later after Wanda spoke Magneto fell down unconscious and X-23 fell to the ground landing perfectly in on her feet. She was gasping for air but then stood straight and looked like she was ready to kick ass. They BoM and acolytes got a little nervous not knowing what would happen now.
X-23 ran to the closest person and started fighting them; the guy she was fighting with turned into metal and threw her out of the way, accidentally throwing her onto Quicksilver who wasn't to quick to get out of the way. They both ended up lying on the floor, x-23 on top of him. They both opened their eyes and just stared at each other like idiots. (LOL)
"Uh X…you may want to start with the ass kicking," Rogue told her fighting off the metal guy. X-23 quickly got off and went to help. Seeing as X-23 was going to get Colossus Rogue turned her attention to Blob who was making his way towards her.
"Look Marie I don't want to hurt you," he said.
"It's ROGUE…and actually Fred it's meh who's gonna be hurting yah," and with that she grabbed his hand and slammed him into mystique. 'Revenge is sweet' she thought, thinking about her now squished step-mom. She then felt someone stand behind her and she quickly turned around to attack. She froze. Red eyes were looking into her green ones as if they could see through her soul. For some reason she couldn't do anything but stare…and he just stood there looking at her too. (BWAHAHAHAHA)
Psylocke looked up in the air at the guy with wings who was annoying the hell out of her, she would have played with him…and his mind if she hadn't notice the X-men start arriving.
'Shit…we're gonna get cornered' she thought and looked at the guy with wings.
"Psylocke say's kiss the floor," she said and threw her hand up towards him, psychic knives appeared and were shot at him making him end up on the ground landing with a nice bam. Before she could warn the others about the X-men getting there…they were surrounded.
Scarlet Witch wasn't paying attention to anything around her. At the moment she was staring into the blurry eyes of Pyro (she can't see what color of his eyes are cause of the goggles). Her hand was raised and up near her shoulder but she wasn't attacking and for a good reason to.
Pyro was standing less than five feet away; his flamethrower very close to her face but no fire was coming out. They just looked at each other wondering who would make the first move. They would have kept that little staring contest going if someone hadn't interrupted. Toad walked in between them.
"Hey yo…I'm Toad," he said charmingly. "I was wondering if after the fight you might wanna go grab an ice-cream or something? Anyway we barley met so let me tell you about myself…I'm single, I like flies and long walks on the beach…" he kept going on and Scarlet Witch kept blinking confused. She looked over the little guy's head to stare at Pyro who seemed like he wanted to kill the frog boy.
Finally getting tired of his talk, Scarlet Witch hexed him making him go flying across the room. Pyro looked at Toad flying away which was a mistake since he didn't notice his body was now glowing blue. He finally noticed and also noticed the Scarlet Witch had gotten closer and was less than a foot away. He tried to move to get his flamethrowers ready but he couldn't move at all.
"You know…it's bad to turn your back on an opponent especially if you don't know what to expect of them," She told him in a dangerous tone while smirking. Pyro couldn't' help but smirk at her, Scarlet Witch noticed and frowned. (Oh lala...lol)
"What are you smirking at…you do know I'm about to hex you 25 feet into the air right?" she asked annoyed and got into his face. 'Feisty…just the way I like em' he though and noticed that the X-men had arrived.
"Uh…shelia…look behind you," he said looking down at her, which was very easy since their nose were inches apart. She slowly turned and noticed all the X-men, acolytes, and BoM members (except magneto) had formed a circle…with Rogue, Psylocke, X-23 and herself in the center of it all. Wanda looked at Rogue was staring at her with a 'are you finished yet' look. Scarlet Witch let the hold on Pyro go and walked towards the center where her partners in crime were…she never turned her back on Pyro.
"Well this is going just as planned," she mumbled standing next to X-23.
"This isn't fair…we got caught off guard," X-23 whined. Rogue was looking around looking for a way out not knowing psylocke had found it.
Jean Grey stepped into the circle and slowly started walking towards them.
"Look we don't want to fight…we just want to know why you're doing this and who sent you," she said nicely.
"Why don't you just come up here and find out?" Psylocke asked tapping the side of her head with her finger. Jean didn't answer.
"Yah have tried…but noticed our shield…right?" Rogue asked looking happy at the fact that their shields were so strong that not even the greatest telepath's #1 student could break it down.
Psylocke took this time to tell Rogue about their ticket out.
'Rogue…she's closer to you…grab her…The X-men leader is in love with her and he would do anything in exchange for her'
Rogue looked at Jean and noticed that she was about a foot away. With a speed that put Quicksilver to shame Rogue grabbed jean and held her with one of her (Jeans') arms behind her. Rogue was holding onto the arm and with her other hand had Jean's head pulled back by her hair.
Scott stared freaking out and the other members got ready to attack. X-23 who was quick had her fist against Jeans neck as soon as she saw Jubilees hands rise up in the air.
"I wouldn't do anything stupid," Scarlet witch commented.
"If any of you do anything…I swear my claws will go through her neck quicker than you can say X-23," X-23 threatened. No one moved except Cyclops who looked like he was going to throw one of his optic blasts at X-23 but Psylocke spoke.
"How many cops died on Friday when we brought Sefton enterprises down?" she asked him innocently.
Cyclops glared at her but answered anyway, "4 cops died and five people who were in the building."
"Only four?" X-23 said disappointed. "And here my goal was five" she said sadly and then looked from Jean to him. "Would you like me to reach my goal now?" she asked.
Jean wasn't saying anything because she was concentrating on levitating a glass case behind the four evil girls. Jean then mentally threw it towards X-23's head. Before it could even get near X-23 Rogue got to it and threw it towards Avalanche. The case was about to hit him when a petite girl hugged him and the case went right threw them and hit the wall. X-23 had heard the case rising with her good hearing and as soon as it crashed into the wall, 'Snikt' her other hand came up to Jeans forehead and two claws were now resting on it.
"I wouldn't try that again princess," she growled.
"X-23 killed those police officers without hesitation…what makes yah think she won't do it tah her?" Rogue asked Cyclops.
"What do you want?" he asked defeated.
"Nothing really…we'll just get out of yah way now," Rogue said and stared walking towards the exit that lead to the back of the building where their cars still waited. The circle was broken as she walked by. The only one who didn't move was gambit who was standing right in front of the direction Rogue was walking. She looked up at him, "We'll see each other again soon," she said talking to everyone in the room but only looking at gambit, she then brushed by him and walked outside.
Scarlet Witch followed her hands glowing blue ready to attack if she had to. "We'll finish this later," she said and gave Pyro a quick glance. Before she exited the room though…she hexed her fathers unconscious body into a wall and watched as Pietro ran to it. She gave her twin an evil smile and walked outside.
/Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real/
X-23 went next dragging Jean with her and psylocke followed close behind.
"Don't worry…Ms. Grey will be fine once we get outside," she told Cyclops who was watching their every move.
"Just make sure you don't follow," X-23 added and walked through the door. Psylocke turned to look at them all and gave a cheerful smile, "Until next time," she said and closed the door behind her. Seconds after the door closed they all rushed to the door and tried opening but no matter what they did it wouldn't open. Kitty couldn't even phase through it.
"Come on…we'll have to go through the front," Scott yelled and ran back to the other rooms they had passed to reach the one they were currently in.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
When X-23 reached the cars she noticed that Rogue was already on her motorcycle ready to leave. Wanda was also in the driver's seat of her Honda civic.
"Well Ms. Grey…it was fun," Psylocke told the other telepath.
"Next time we won't be caught off guard…meaning…you won't be so lucky," X-23 told her and then slammed Jeans head into the door of Wanda's car.
"X…don't forget this is my car," Wanda yelled angrily.
"Whoops," Lexa answered sheepishly getting into the car. "Sorry" she gave an apologetic look at Wanda. Psylocke gently moved Jean's body and put it on the sidewalk. She then walked towards the car and got in the back seat. The cars started and the girls were off.
"Something tells me tonight didn't go as planned," Lexa mumbled looking back to make sure they weren't being followed.
"It's not our fault…you think White Queen will be mad?" Betts asked.
"I don't know…but she and Sinister are gonna have some explaining to do," Wanda said with narrowed eyes.
/There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing what is real/
'What the hell was my father doing there?' she thought. Up a head of them, Rogue was asking herself the same question except she was wondering what the Brotherhood were doing there…and why hadn't she attacked the guy with the red eyes.
/This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling, confusing what is real /
