JUBILEE AND JUBILATION
PART TWENTY THREE
THE PARTY CRASHERS
As we pulled up Frosty laughed "Did you enjoy your ride Jubilee."
"Actually I'm Jubilation right now, and yes. I enjoyed it very much. I can see why Jubilee loves riding these things so much." And then she put me back into control.
As soon as we got in the house whatever Frosty was going to say next was interrupted by the alarm system going off. As we looked around for any danger, Bishop's voice came over the intercom. "Emma we have some unwelcomed guests tonight. Lady Deathstrike and about a hundred cyborgs."
"She's taking no chances on you." Nick, who had stayed for the party, commented.
"I'll handle her by my self." Wolvie said.
"Logan are you nuts. You can't take out an army by your self, and with us…" Nick shouted at Wolvie.
"I said her, not her army. Emma does the communications system go out side?"
"Yes."
"Good." He said and walked over to the intercom. He then started speaking into it in Japanese.
"What's he saying?" Paige asked.
"He's basically calling her a coward and challenging her to a sword duel."
"A sword duel?" Paige asked shocked.
"She's basically after him because she feels he dishonored her. So what better way to get it back then a sword duel under the old customs. It will be one on one with the winner deciding the loser's fate. If she has any honor left, she has to except. He's basically giving her what she always wanted, away to reclaim her honor."
She excepted. No surprise, and he went to get his swords.
We followed him out, he didn't say not to, and they addressed one another.
"Pick a weapon and we'll begin" Wolvie said, sounding almost almost board by this.
"I see giving me the first choice, well," she said going over the katanas, her eyes going wide as she found one. Drawing it from it's scabbard, she looked it over vary carefully before saying, "You have taken very good care of my father's sword Logan-son."
"If you win, it yours, as is my life. Now," he said picking up his favorite sword, one probably older the he is "Let's get this over with. Jubilee's party is on hold for it."
"Such confidence." She said. And then the battle was on.
After the first few test stokes, Mike had to speak. "Uh, Sir? Why are we just watching this?"
"Because…"
"Will you two shut up? I want to watch Wolvie kick her ass. Now no more talking."
"How…" Paige started, when I death glared everyone. There was blessed quite for the rest of the fight.
They were two masters, but Wolvie was better by far. Still it went on for some time. They parried blow after blow against each other, then to my surprise Lady Deathstike got first blood, cutting across his inner left forearm. He immediately got her back across the right shoulder. His healing factor, and her nanobots, healed the wounds almost immediately. Then, like a signal was given, they both went to fighting totally offensively, with no thoughts to defense. They were now trying to do more damage then the other could take. 'It always comedown to this in Wolvie's fights.' I thought.
Finally after a few minutes of this, it was painful just watching it, Wolvie knocked her sword out of her hand in a upward diangle cut, and reversing the cut, made a huge gash in her chest, from right shoulder to left hip. It would have put a Wolvie with no adamantium skeleton into shock, bet she was a cyborg, she didn't feel pain, so as her nanobots started to repair her, he stabbed her in the strum, and putting his weight into it forced her to fall down, pinning her to the ground. "You lose Marico." He said lowly.
Predictably, the soldiers started forward, ready to attack. As everyone, including my self readied to fight, Jean threw a TK shield over them..
"Impressive." Was all anyone could say. In this case only Henry could think of it.
"I just hope that back up arrives before their air runs out." Jean said.
"Uh, Jean they're cyborgs, they don't need to breathe as much as most of us do. I mean I've seen these suckers come out of the damn ocean to attack, walking out of it with no gear."
"When was this?" Frosty asked?
"Last time she attacked me, on a Japanese beach when I was taking my adopted daughter on a picnic." Wolvie said sitting on a Lady Deathstrike that he had some how knock out. I don't even want to know.
"You and Jubilee, have, interesting times Logan." Frosty said.
"I wouldn't have it any other way." I shot back.
"Five minutes, and two knock outs later, a Shield carrier arrived. Nick said they were laying in wait for his second signal, his fist happed at the sound of the alarm.
As Shield personal restrained an unconcence Lady Deathstrike, Nick said, "Well let you know what we get out of her Logan. Hopefully we'll get some clues. Sorry about the party Jubilee."
"Hey! If I have any thing to say about it, the party's still going on! Sorry you have to miss it though."
"Jubilee, I think it would be best to reschedule t a latter date, how's Friday night for you Nick?"
"I think I can make it."
"Cool, maybe we can get the Doc to come." I said. As long as the party still went off I was happy. Maybe I could think of a few more to invite. My mind was searching.
"If you want Jubilee." Frosty said.
And we all went in the house, Frosty sending everyone to bed. 'Damn' I thought 'it's still early.' And so with Mike calling this place a nut house, they escorted me to my room.
