Time to find out what happened to Des now. I own nothing but the char's; Des, Volt, Tyrece, Vachenzia and Marc...kidding. Marc belongs to A Pyro's Rage not me. Also, I own the idea but no body doesn't have to know that.
Volt and Marc left the club and headed towards the mansion quickly. Marc thought of nothing else but to find Des and get her back. Volt could sense the determination in Marc. After going through the gate, not literally though, and parked near the entrance. Both Volt and Marc rushed inside to find the professor.
The new recuits and the rest of the X-men that are still hanging around was giving weird looks to Volt. Not normally seeing someone with so many piercings along with horns attached to their head. Volt was used to having people stare at him because of his multiple piercings.
Marc busted the door open to Xavier's study; where he was sitting conveniently behind his desk. Xavier wheeled over to him. "You want me to use Cerebro to find someone, am I right?" He asked. Marc nodded in reply. "Who?" Xavier asked, as he wheeled down to where Cerebro is. Marc and Volt followed. "My sister, Desdemona." Volt replied.
Xavier nodded solemnly in understanding. Once they reached the room, Marc and Volt waited outside as the professor entered Cerebro's room. After waiting a few minutes, the professor came back out with news. "She seems to be at the mall. Which is strange since it is closed at this time of night."
Volt turned and started heading back out to his car that they came in. "Thanks, prof." Marc said and hurried after Volt. Once they hoped in Volt's silver Dodge Viper, they took off towards the mall.
Half way to the mall, Marc spotted Wanda walking down the street on the sidewalk. At a stop light, Marc hopped out and 'kidnapped' Wanda. "What the hell is going on?" She stated, wanting answers now.
"Desdemona's been kidnapped." Volt replied as he continued to drive to the mall. Ok now Wanda wasn't upset from being dragged off the streets by an X-man. She was pissed that he best friend...more like her only friend has been kidnapped.
Once Volt pulled into the empty parking lot of the mall. They all bolted out and headed over to the mall entrance. On the way there, Marc could barely hear like some sort of chanting going on. He was confused as it seemed to be a type of language he hasn't heard before.
After reaching the doors, Wanda used her hex power to rip the doors of their hinges. The chanting got louder for Marc while the others could barely make it out.
A woman went to investigate what the noise was and took notice off the intruders. She kept in the shadows and moved stealthly back to where the chanting is coming from. "Frater nos have intruders." She said with haste.
The room is lit in candle light, casting eerie shadows over everything including Des's unconscious body. He turned to face his sister. "Puteus defungo superstes illic quod vado tracto lemma." He said angerly. She nodded and left as silently as she came.
The three walked into the center of the mall. While keeping a watchful eye out for anyone or anything. "I don't like the looks of this." Marc said. "I'll head upstairs to look around. You two look around down here." Volt said, going to head up the stairs on his left.
"Man this is just like the Scooby Doo gang. You're Fred, I'm Shaggy and she's Daphne." Said Marc as he was having a little fit. Wanda punched Marc in the shoulder. "Hey that was suppose to be a compliment. What you want to be Velma instead?" Volt just shook his head as Marc started running from Wanda's rage.
The woman looked on from her spot on the second floor. Seems as though she only had to worry mainly about the man with the piercings. The other two seem like they would rather take each other down then to find the woman her brother has chosen as lecta.
Once Volt got up the stairs, he started to walk around keeping his gaurd up. He walked past the dark shadows in the corner between a store and a pop machine. She watched him as he past without noticing her. Her hand closed around the handle to her weapon which she drew silently. The outside light that steadily shined into the mall shone off the blade slightly that barely made a diference for anyone to notice.
By this time, Marc managed to run up the stairs on the otherside of the mall with Wanda still close behind. "Ah! I'm sorry for making you angry." He pleaded with her. The slight sound of metal being unsheathed caught his sensitive hearing. He stopped abruptly which caused Wanda to run into him.
Wanda scowled as she got up from falling onto the floor and was ready to give him a hex bolt. "Why in the hell did you stop?" Marc motioned for her to be quiet. He picked up the chanting again and began to follow. Hoping it would lead to where the other sound came from. Wanda followed after him with a raised brow.
She slowly made her way behind Volt with the murshan dagger drawn in hand. She raised the weapon high up in the air so that it would be a quick kill. Volt stopped as the chanting was more clearer to hear now. Just as he was about to enter a suspiciously open thrift store. A sharpe pain struck from behind and he turned around to see who has attacked him.
"Who are you?" He managed to say as he was trying to get the murshan dagger out of the mid of his back. She chuckled, "Why should that concern you now? As you shall be dead within a few moments. The blade that is in your back has been covered with a strong poison."
"Are you sure about that?" Marc asked, as him and Wanda finally showed up to the right area. "I was the one who put the poison on the blade." She stated. "So, who are you?" Wanda asked with venom in her voice.
"Nomen Vachenzia." The woman replied. "Ok Vachenzia now would you move before something bad happens to you." Marc said as he stepped forward towards the entrance of the shop. Wanda moved past the two and over to Volt. She then pulled the murshan dagger out of his back with a couple of tries. Seeing as the blade was completely embedded Volt's back.
Volt grimanced in pain when Wanda was pulling the dagger out. This act of violence towards Volt made Wanda go over the edge more so then Des being kidnapped. She used her power to steady the murshan dagger in the air.
Vachenzia was about to throw some bo shurikens at Marc that she kept hidden amongst her person. Until Wanda forced the murshan dagger at her; making the force of her power drive the blade into her side until it was forced through her body completely and came out on the otherside. Marc looked paled by seeing Wanda's action.
Wanda then drove the blade into the woman's chest at her heart; instantly killing her. Volt's wound already started to heal after Wanda pulled the murshan dagger out. The effects of the poison was still being felt throughout his body though. Marc then quickly ran into the shop and towards the back.
The chanting seemed to be nearing the end but while looking around the backroom, Marc could see nothing. When Wanda and Volt came in back with Marc. Volt immediately took notice of a dim light coming from beneath the far corner of the room.
"Do you two see the light?" He asked. Marc turned to look at him. "You better not be seeing that light at the end of the tunnel, buddy." He said. Volt smacked him acrossed the arm and pointed over to the dim light on the floor. "Oh ok then you're not dying." Marc walked over and kicked the hidden door down. "Honey I'm home." He said.
The man in the ceremonial robes stopped the chant with the dagger in hand that is raised up above Des's chest. "I see that my sister was no match for the likes of you." He said. "Now who in the blue hell are you?" Marc asked as the temperature around him started to rise. "I am Tyrece and you think that you can save her now you are wrong. It's already too late for her; her mind is gone."
Marc walked up to Tyrece and punched him hard in the jaw. Causing him to drop the dagger and fall to the floor. He kipped up and did an upper kick to Marc's lower jaw. He stumbled back a bit, wiping the blood off his lip with the back of his hand.
Volt then ran from the doorway over to Tyrece and rammed him with his shoulder. Knocking him back against a wall. A few candles fell over onto the floor and went out. Marc went over and started a series of high, low and mid punches to him. Taking this time, Volt picked up Des and slowly made his way out of the room. Wanda had walked over and picked up the dagger. She was now holding it over a flame of a candle to get the blade hot.
Tyrece was able to read Marc's movements now and grabbed his fist when he was going to punch him in the jaw again. He smirked as he began to squeeze Marc's fist and twist his arm around at the same time. "You know how a hot blade feels going into the body?" Wanda asked, walking over to them while looking at the ardent blade. Before Tyrece could react she jabbed the heated blade into his shoulder.
Marc pulled free from Tyrece's loosening grip just as he ripped the dagger out. Marc turned his fist into a fiery ball. Wanda backed away towards the door wondering what Marc was planning on doing now. As Tyrece dropped the dagger on the floor and looked back at Marc. He was met with a fiery punch to the face. The blow knocked him out and the fire burned his face serverely.
But the robes started to catch fire as Marc didn't think about that happening. The fire began to spread quiet rapidly. "Run! Run away!" Marc shouted as him and Wanda ran out of the room. They soon caught up with Volt on the lower floor. "What the hell did you do now?" Volt asked, smelling the smoke now.
"He didn't plan that he would catch the guy's clothes on fire." Wanda explained. Volt rolled his eyes. Soon they were out and getting into Volt's car. Volt let Wanda drive seeing as he was suffering by poison. "Maybe you should go to the hospital?" Marc asked as he held onto Des in the back seat.
"A little poison never hurt anyone with a healing factor." Volt said with a smirk as he looked back in the rear view mirror at Marc's expression. "Oh goodie you'll live through almost anything then." Marc said as he looked at Des. She looked so peaceful laying there in his arms like she was sleeping but the only thing was that her breathing was shallow along with her heart beat.
He then noticed that she was not wearing her orginal clothes that she wore earlier. Except she wore a long flowing white skirt, with a red design that held the white fabric in place at her waist. The top fitted perfectly to her breasts and stopped just below them with a red metallic top that showed off her firm stomache. To complete the outfit she was wearing armlets that was also red and held long flowing white fabric just like the skirt.
Marc leaned down and kissed her forehead as they headed to Volt's apartment. Leaving the mall behind them to burn down.
Holy crap that's the longest chapter I've written for this story. I swear I was on a roll typing it out. Also, I have no idea if that fight scene was worth it cuz I can't do fight scenes for nothing. What Vachenzia and Tyrece said was in Latin and the translations are in order at the bottom.
"Brother, we have intruders."
"Well quit standing there and go deal with them."
"The name's Vachenzia."
