Chapter 6: Sentinel Attack
Somewhere in a government facility…
"Mr. Trask the new sentinels are online," stated a soldier, "With permission from the government we have been allowed to send them to New York."
"Good, those mutie scum are going even further than beneath our boots," said Trask sadistically.
"We have fifty sentinels now sir," said the soldier.
"Then we attack soon," said Trask.
At the mansion…
"I have an announcement to make, we will be having new classes to better your skills. We have a fencing class that a new teacher Mrs. Braddock will teach. A hand to hand combat class taught by Logan. Also an agility training class taught by Dr. McCoy," said Xavier.
"Hey Katzchen, what class are you going to take," said Kurt, "I'm taking fencing because I already know some."
"You can fence?" said Kitty, "I'm taking fencing too."
"That is pretty cool Kitty, we will be class mates," said Kurt.
"Everyone I asked was either taking agility or martial arts," said Kitty, "So I wanted to be different."
"Shiro vill also be taking fencing, he said he figured out something he can do with his fire powers," said Kurt, "Vell, I'm off now."
He then bamfed away from Kitty. Paige, Sam, Jubilee, and Bobby walked over to where Kitty was. "What are you al like taking?" said Kitty.
"I'm taking agility with Jubilee. We decided we probably will never fight up close," said Bobby.
"I just want to learn how to flip like Nightcrawler and Beast. That would be cool," Jubilee said.
"Paige and I are taking martial arts. In case I have no room to fly," said Sam.
"My reason is obvious," stated Paige.
Meanwhile in Professor X's office…
"Professor can I talk to you about something?" said Kurt.
"Sure Kurt I'm always here if you need me," said Xavier.
"Vell ever since when I walked around town vithout the hologram…I vas vondering if I could have more responsibility."
"Well, I have something perfect for you then Kurt, we are going to graduate quite a few new recruits. Could you lead a second team?"
"Vhy sure Professor I vould really like to," said Kurt.
"Good Kurt you start when those new recruits graduate," said the Professor.
Elsewhere in the mansion…
"When do we like have the classes?" asked Kitty to Mrs. Braddock.
Her name was Betsy Braddock she was a high level psychic like Jean. Her powers to create psionic sword that can cut through a lot of things if she has a really strong will. She also can create mind bolts.
"Saturdays and Sundays Noon to One Thirty," she said in a British accent.
"Thank you," said Kitty.
While she said that Bobby, Paige, Jubilee, and Sam ran over. "Hey Kitty we're gonna graduate to X-men tonight!"
"Wow really?" asked Kitty.
"Ya we get to go to a team that Kurt is going to lead," said Bobby.
"Kurt? Leading?" said a confused Kitty, "Couldn't be."
"Well it is and Havok is coming from Hawaii to join Scott's team," added Jubilee, "Magma is graduating to Scott's team also."
"Wow news to me," said Kitty.
She then went around the mansion to find Rogue and tell her. Rogue said Kurt already told her.
Soon it was the first new classes…
Beast had the agility trainers Iceman, Magma, Wolfsbane, Jubilee, and Berserker all running a course with tons of bars, walls, and a few pits. They were not aloud to use slides or propel themselves with powers (if your thinking there is no way to propel with powers Havok did it in Uncanny X-men #426 for reference).
In Logan's class he had Jean, Scott, Rogue, Roberto, Paige, Sam, and Jamie get with sparring partners the leftover ended up with Logan. Which was Jamie of course.
In Betsy's class all the classmates were given swords except Shiro. "I don't need a sword he explained. They were given practicing swords too though. Betsy knew why he didn't need one but insisted he used a practicing one.
Soon the classes ended all of the students were beat.
In New York…
Angel was looking at the horizon and noticed something strange it seemed there was some big group of purplish dots flying towards New York. He noticed they were shaped like people. Then when they got closer he could see them they were robotic and had jets coming out of their shoes. He knew this was a threat. He heard multiple voices saying, "Find and exterminate all mutants."
Then one flew up to him and said, "Mutant signature objective terminate."
'Oh shit,' he thought and flew as fast as he could away. The sentinel was shooting beams of orange light at him then it stopped in mid air and shot a bomb that then exploded shrapnel flew everywhere. Angel was hit by three big chunks of metal one grazed his leg, one went through his wing and the last grazed his arm he then crash-landed. He crumpled onto the ground the Sentinel said, "Mutant signature terminated."
After a twenty or so minutes Angel woke up. "Huh? My wounds are healed? I have to call Xavier," said Angel. He ran to a payphone and dialed the mansions number.
"Hello?" Professor X answered.
"It's me Angel, there has been a sentinel attack in New York please send help," he moaned over the phone.
"Have you been wounded?" he said.
"I'm fine I seem to have healed send the X-men," he said then passed out.
'X-men we have a serious problem both teams to New York,' he sent into the minds of the X-men.
Cyclops put on his visor and ran to the X-Jet.
Jean put on her uniform and ran to see Cyclops.
Nightcrawler picked up his sword and got the new recruits on his team together.
Shadowcat quickly put on her uniform.
Rogue slid her gloves on.
Sunfire lit his hand on fire than extinguished it he flew to the X-Jet.
All the X-men were assembled at the X-Jet Cyclops, Jean, Nightcrawler, Shadowcat, Rogue, Sunfire, Cannonball, Husk, Iceman, Jubilee, Magma, and Havok who arrived a few hours ago. Also the mentors Betsy (Psylocke), Storm, Beast, and Wolverine had arrived.
"Let's go X-men!" commanded Cyclops.
The Jet lifted off with all the X-men in it. In about ten minutes they found a spot to land in New York.
"X-men split up into groups of four!" ordered them.
Psylocke, Rogue, Magma, and Sunfire split into one group. Beast, Cannonball, Husk, and Shadowcat were another group. Wolverine, Cyclops, Jean, and Havok were another. Storm, Nightcrawler, Jubilee, and Iceman were the last team. They all split off into different streets.
Where Psylocke's group was…
A sentinel stepped in front of Sunfire and started to say it's favorite motto. Sunfire held his hand out in a burst of fire a fiery sword appeared in his hand. He ran up to the sentinel and sliced clean through its leg. Then with his other arm shot concentrated fire into the sentinels scanner. One sentinel was down. Rogue walked into an alley and saw a sentinel approaching Gambit. "Gambit!" she yelled.
"A little help here chere," yelled Gambit. She had tapped Sunfire earlier so she flew up to the back of the sentinel's head. She clapped her hands together into a crack of the machinery and mad a huge fire blast. Shutting down the sentinel.
"Thanks chere," thanked Gambit.
"How many did you get Gambit?" she asked.
"I would say ol' Gambit got five," he responded, "It's tirin'."
Where Psylocke was…
She was counting the sentinels she killed. "Three," she said as she ran up a sentinel and sliced it's head off. "Four," she said as she drilled her psychic sword through a sentinel's chest area. "Five," she finally said as she jumped on the sentinels head and made the psychic sword into it's modem.
Magma and Sunfire were about ten yards away…
Magma was on a magma slide and idea she got from Iceman. She and Sunfire were on it shooting blasts of fire and magma at their foes they killed three with this strategy.
Rogue and Gambit came over to meet the rest of Rogue's team. "We got eight together," said Rogue.
"I got five," said Psylocke.
"Two," said Sunfire.
"Two," said Magma.
"So eighteen," said Psylocke, "How many are there in total I wonder."
At Beast's team…
Cannonball stood in front of two sentinels. He released a lot of thermo chemical energy and flew into the first sentinel it had a smoking hole in the middle of it. The other sentinel fired orange blasts at him. He dodged all of them. Then flew into the sentinel's head leaving it headless.
Husk went for a simple approach she shredded her skin and turned metal. She ran up to a group of sentinels and lifted one's foot off the ground tipping it onto to others who defied and shot a bomb of shrapnel, which didn't affect her. She saw a person who looked like an Angel she ran over. She then helped him up. He said, "Thank the lord it's the X-men, who knows how many mutants these monsters kill."
"I'm glad to know your okay, umm…" she said.
"Warren Worthington the Third," he said.
"Paige Guthrie," she then replied.
Where Beast was he and Shadowcat were disabling the sentinel's machinery. Beast would use his amazing jumping and agility powers and jump onto the heads rip off the panels and reprogram it to defend mutants. He had done this to four sentinels. Shadowcat phased through three.
They all gathered together and counted the sentinels they got. It added up to twelve.
At Wolverine's group…
Wolverine had already sliced through five sentinels. Using his claws to climb up to the head and slicing it off. He also had a few pieces of shrapnel sticking out of him, which he simply removed. Jean would telekinetically stop sentinels for Havok and Cyclops to blast. "Good job baby brother," Cyclops said to Alex.
"Don't call me baby Scott," he grumbled.
They had gone through three when Jean had to put up a shield and block several orange blasts and some missiles. Cyclops and Havok shot a few missiles. Then Jean's shield went down and the sentinels were about to fire. Cyclops ripped off his visor and gave them a full blast.
The group had gathered back together it counted up to ten.
At Storm's group…
Storm and Iceman were blasting sentinels from the sky each of them had gotten two so far. Iceman jumped off his slide and landed on the sentinel. He put his hands together and froze the inside of the sentinel then melted it the sentinel blew up.
Nightcrawler was teleporting to the tops of sentinels and slicing through their heads. He once dropped the sword, so he teleported the sentinel's head off. He killed three.
Jubilee shot lights into a sentinels sensor and blew the lights up she killed one sentinel.
They killed ten all together.
The whole team got back to meet each other.
"Fifty sentinels?" said Cyclops, "So they must have revived the program."
Just then a man with white hair had jet boots he announced, "You mutants have terminated my sentinel programs I will make three times as much I will be back to terminate."
He then left.
"This whole thing is tiring let's head back to the Mansion," said Wolverine he pulled out a cigar, "Sunfire light my cigar will ya?
