Mina was seeing red she was so angry. She walked up and shoved her mother as hard as she could. As Domino fell, Disciple reacted on instinct and quickly caught her with one arm around her waist before she hit the floor and lifted her back up to her feet. Domino looked up at her noticeably upset while Disciple stood in between them. She shoved him but he didn't move. He simply glared at Mina.
"You dare? In MY HOUSE?" he shouted.
Mina bared her teeth and looked past him at Domino. "You dare drag me here just so you can see your fucking boyfriend?"
"It's not like that, Mina," Domino replied as she got up.
"The fuck it isn't. You convinced me to come to this shit hole claiming it was for vacation and a break and all the while it was actually so you could see this fucking guy," she screamed and then something clicked. "He's why you ditched me the first fucking day we were here isn't he?"
"Not Hayward. I met with Lekan because he was telling me that," she was interrupted this time.
"Bullshit! Fucking bullshit and I'm done listening to it!"
"Mina, she's telling the truth," Disciple interjected.
"Why the fuck should I listen to you? I don't know you and right now don't want to. So I'm just go ahead and settle with the fact that you're lying for her!" She turned back to Domino, "I'm so done."
"Mina wait!" she called out to her.
"Fuck this- fuck that- fuck you!" Mina held up both middle fingers up as she continued to walk out. "Savior out!"
When she stormed out, she shoved Lekan into a wall when she walked past him. "What the fuck did I do?!"
"You're fucking creepy!" she yelled at him and turned the corner. The only sound they heard at that moment was the steel door slamming at the top of the steps.
Suddenly over the P.A. System a gruff voice was heard. "Quit slamming the God Damned doors!"
Lekan walked by the door rubbing the back of his head and muttered, "Puta de mierda!"
All Disciple could do was sigh while Domino tried not to cry.
Mina didn't pay too much attention to where she was going, when she ran out of the 'Bunker.' She went down a bunch of dark industrial looking alleys with a red background glow and steam filling the streets.
"And fuck them with their perfect ass relationship and this goddamned rapey ass alley bullshit." She ranted as she went through several twists and turns only to get more lost.
She heard a whistle behind her, jumping as she saw a man leaning against the wall of the hall she just passed. She swore he wasn't there a second ago.
"Jesus fuck nuggets!" she cursed and clutched her chest.
He was wearing an expensive looking gray blazer, with a pop vinyl Iron Man helmet on the front. The aviator sunglasses he'd been wearing at the casino were low on the bridge of his nose. He had a toothpick hanging from the corner of his mouth and he looked at her over the brim of the sunglasses.
"Fuck nugget… sounds kinky." He chuckled and tucked his hands into his pockets. "Glad to see you're just as jumpy as before."
Mina evened her breathing out, "Before what?"
"Like last time," he said plainly as if she should know what he was referring to.
Mina's eyes narrowed, "I know you?"
He shook his head and pushed his glasses up on his face, "Never mind. You look like a chick that likes to party."
"Oh shit. I'm about to do drugs with a stranger in a back alley." Mina said a loud bluntly. "Why am I excited about this?"
"Bad day at the office?" he gave her a mock frown.
"Bad say at life, bruh." She laughed.
He wiggled the toothpick in his mouth, "I hear that. I find that keeping busy takes our mind off your shit day. So, you got drugs?"
"No, I thought you did." Mina whined, "Man… now this turns into me getting molested."
The man's hands went up in surrender quickly, "Hey no touching! It's against the rules. All watch and no touching just like at the strip club. Sometimes you gotta nudge but that's alright."
"What are you doing here?" she asked.
"Wanna come to a club where people wee on each other?" he pointed towards the hallway behind him.
"What?" she scrunched her nose and backed away.
He snorted and pretended like it wasn't what he meant, "What? That's weird, right? Who'd wanna go to one of those kinds of clubs?"
She started to laugh, bending over to catch her breath, "You're funny, what's your name?"
"You can call me Mr. Fantastic." He finally stood up straight and started walking away from her down the hallway that he pointed to.
"Wait, where are you going?" she called after him as she watched him walk away from her.
Without looking over his shoulder he yelled back, "To your destiny! You should come check it out! Not like you're doing anything better right now!"
Mina looked around each hallway and threw her hands up, "Rabbit hole it is."
Mina could hear loud music the further she went down the hall. Some people were standing in the hallway now. "Ah… underground nightclub then?"
"Something like that. You never know what you find here." He called over his shoulder as she followed him.
"So, is this like one of these dungeon sex clubs?"
"Nah, that would have been down that last right we didn't take." He shook his head and walked through a small metal door frame.
It was a huge refinery or warehouse that had been gutted and replaced with a dance floor, strobe lights and a bar on each side. The beat was loud, and the people were dancing. From what Mina saw, it was a typical club with nothing weird or dangerous going on. Well, aside from the obvious narcotics being done on the table in the VIP section. There was a large glass walled office that overlooked the whole club, the bright lights reflecting off the windows.
A waitress walked by Mina with a large tray of shots and they took as many as they could carry when it was made apparent that they were free.
"A toast!"
Mina held up one of the shots, "What are we toasting to?"
"More of a welcome really," he pursed his lips and shrugged.
They both took the shots back to back until they were all gone. The tequila burned her nose and made her eyes water. "Wait, a welcome for what?"
"Not for! To!" he yelled back over the loud music,
He started dancing and moving backwards towards the center of the dance floor. Mina giggled and followed him with dancing to the loud techno music, "Welcome to what?"
"Welcome to the shit show, kid!" he called out.
Ulysses Klaue was pacing back and forth impatiently, "Well?"
"Well what?" Frank said from his spot at the desk. He was leaning back in the chair with his boots up on the desk with his ankles crossed.
"Tell me what you found."
Frank had his arms behind his head, "Didn't know I was supposed to be looking for something."
"The mutant." Ulysses huffed impatiently.
"Which one?"
Ulysses spun around and slammed his fist on the surface of the desk, "Cable! What other fucking mutant is there?!"
"Just the one, I think." Frank tried to backtrack on his words, not realizing he let the slip about Mina.
Ulysses reached over and grabbed Frank by the throat, "I DON'T PAY YOU TO THINK!"
Frank remained quiet, trying to support himself on the desk when his feet were no longer touching the floor. Struggling to breathe and stay up.
"I PAY YOU TO KNOW THINGS!" he spit in his face.
"I know he's here!" Frank struggled to speak, "I was asking you in case there had been anymore developments since then."
"You're about to develop a black fucking eye." Ulysses threatened.
The door to the office opened, Lekan walked through and looked at both men awkwardly, "Uh… you wanted to see me, boss?"
Ulysses dropped Frank on the desk hard walking towards Lekan, "Four fucking hours ago, where the fuck were you? And don't say working, you haven't done shit around here lately."
He fidgeted awkwardly, "I was working on something for Disciple."
"What's that fucker got you working on that so goddamned important that you can't answer the phone for your fucking boss?!" Ulysses demanded.
Ulysses didn't know that he was also working with Disciple in helping mutants, Lekan started to sweat, "Uh just some delivery shit, I was on the phone taking orders."
"Mother fucker, I tell you what," He pulled out his pistol and held it against the side of his head like a phone, "I don't give a fuck if you're on the phone with God Almighty himself," Ulysses moved the gun to the side of Lekan's head near his ear. "when I call you better click over and see what the fuck I want!"
"Yeah sure, I – I mean Yes, sir." Lekan stuttered.
He pulled the gun away, flicking the safety back on but keeping the hammer pulled back, "I needed you to get some security footage for me, but now we got bigger shit on our hands." He was no longer yelling, once again his mood changing drastically.
"What's going on, boss?"
Frank spoke up, "Cable is in Vegas and he's-"
Ulysses cut him off, "He's got that fucking digital eye on my shit" he walked over to the mini bar along the glass wall, he picked up a scotch glass and made himself a drink, "and something I want."
Lekan nodded his head, "So you need me to use the network to find him?"
Frank shook his head and pulled out guns and weapons from different places in the room one would not normally find them, he started inspecting them and tucking them in various places on himself. "Don't got time for that now, he's here and now he knows we're here and now he knows we know he's here." He lifted the ice bucket on the mini bar and took out a pair of brass knuckles.
"Hey, leave one of those ones. I might need it later." Ulysses said casually as if talking about a commonly used tool.
Lekan opened his mouth a few times and nothing came out at first, "What?"
"He's right." Ulysses agreed. "Go secure the Vibranium, I want men on it 24/7. Frank do what you do best."
"I want the girl, Frank." Frank was on his was out the door with Lekan when Ulysses called out to him again. "Wherever the mutant is, she is."
"I don't see why we're still talking about this broad." Frank spat, "We got pressing shit to handle right now."
BANG
Frank didn't move as the bullet went right by his head and hit the door behind him. If Ulysses wanted him dead, he would have shot him the first time, this was a warning. Lekan was already out the door praying in Spanish.
"Did I ask for your fucking opinion?" Ulysses warned, "Bring her to me. I just wanna talk to her."
"I don't think this one will take the bait like the others. You saw how she was towards Cable." He tried to deter him from wanting to get any info on Mina. "Red roses and a limo ride doesn't seem like it would cut it."
Seeing Ulysses face of rage come back, he quickly added. "But I'll give it the old college try."
Once the other two men left the office, Ulysses took his drink and opened the thick sliding door to the balcony. The music was loud, and he bobbed his head every now and then to the beat. He loved being in Vegas, and he was happy he made the move to partner with Disciple on the location. When he came here the place was his to run, using his own playlist for the club's music ensured he never had to listen to crap.
He walked along the catwalk of the balcony, it wrapped around the office and lead to some stairs that led to the main floor. Security guards blocked the entrance at the base of the stairs of course. Leaning against the railing, he looked out to the dance floor. The song changed to something with a steady yet heavy beat.
Mina was dancing around the guy she met until he looked up to the office and looked back down to Mina. "Nudge, bitch!" Then he hip bumped her more to the center of the dancing couples.
The liquor was doing the trick, her face felt warm and she was floating. She spun in circles and danced by herself and with strangers of both genders. This was just what she needed after having that fight with Domino and her boyfriend.
Where he nudged her, more like shoved her, was in the very center of the dance floor where the brightest strobe light was shining down on. Ulysses tipped his glass back finishing off the last of his drink, and that's when he saw her. At the bottom of his class of whiskey. Literally.
Locked in a building
The place is on fire
Up in the penthouse
Taking a view
Alarms are ringing
The seconds are ticking
He slowly lowered his drink, keeping his eyes locked on her moving form. Ulysses couldn't believe his luck, the woman from the casino was here in his club of all places! "Little lamb… little lamb…" he murmured under his breath as he smirked.
He set his glass on the edge of the railing and quickly stalked along the walkway, down the stairs and onto the dance floor. The lights matched the song, going out at periods of time with the song and people would clap and cheer as they danced. He used it to his advantage, circling her and watching her intently.
Mina looked around for her new friend but lost him in the crowd. At this point she was feeling better than before, maybe the stranger was right she just needed to get her mind off things. She saw a flash of a gold toothed smile for what seemed like a brief second, it was gone as she soon as she doubled back to it. A man came up to her and pulled her into a close dance, she didn't object and started moving with him.
This is the new world
This is your time
Down in the basement
Dancing again
Everybody get ready to sing
When the lights go out
When Mina turned back around, she expected to see her friend. Instead she locked eyes with Ulysses Klaue. Something about the playful smirk he gave her made her breath catch and her heart race. Her hands covered his, not flinching at the cool touch of his aesthetic and pushed them from her waist to her hips. The crinkle at the corners of his eyes when his smirk got bigger drew her in.
She slid her hands up his arms, to his shoulders and around his neck. Neither of them were able to look away from each other as they moved around to the music. Something about him was familiar and she knew that she had never met him before, she knew that for damn sure because she wouldn't be able to forget him.
Out with the old war
In with the new
Dressed to the nines
Atomic chic looks so good on you
Ulysses reached up with his real hand and pushed a stray bang away from her face. Her fingertips pressed on the back of his head; her nails scraped his scalp lights as she buried them in his hair. She didn't know why she did it, she'd never done it before in the past. Mina used her powers in a nonmedical way to send endorphins to someone. It wasn't just someone, it was him and she couldn't begin to understand or explain why that meant everything.
It felt like everything around them moved in slow motion. He couldn't hear the music anymore. All he could hear was her breathing and his heart racing. Ulysses never felt anything like this before, but it felt too familiar and comforting. With the edge of his knuckle he tilted her chin up, waiting for the first one to blink before meeting with a kiss.
Dance to the last song
Stay with me
Over and over
Tell me you love me
Tell me the words that I want to hear
Let's embrace
Let's embrace
And wait for the all-clear
Deadpool was dancing by the bar in the back, slowly making his way through the crowd and dancing with strangers. Mr. Fantastic, or whoever he was, called him out on the dancefloor before he got to see Mina and Ulysses. "Hey man, you're killing my groove here!"
"You ain't ever had no groove, Sista!" he snapped his fingers.
"You wanna go?" he put his hands out to his sides and shook his shoulders, "Then let's go."
The song and the beat changed, Beastie Boys started to play, and the spotlights came down on the two of them. The crowd parted as if making way for a mosh pit. Both men stood in the center, feet moving to the beat but staying in place.
"You don't want none of this fire," Deadpool did his jazz hands in front of his face before making the first move. He did two high steps before dropping low and sweeping one leg under the other, spinning on his back and bringing his legs around in a different angle each time.
The crowd went crazy, but Mina and Ulysses were still oblivious to everything around them. Having ditched the hoodie back in the alley, her breasts were pressed up against his chest in her small tank top. Both of Ulysses' hands went to her ass, his chest pounding harder at the sound of her soft sigh.
It was Mr. Fantastic's turn to bust a move, using his hands and arms to do impressive dance moves to match his quick feet. Deadpool took more of a twerking route with his dance moves. They went back and forth for while before aviator glasses caught reflection of a pissed off looking merc.
Cable was on the out skirts of the dancefloor, looking for Mina but also hoping to run into Domino or Deadpool so he could get a lead on where to find her. He was pissed that she left him the morning after the night they had. Especially after she said she would leave with him.
The sea of people parted, the bright light still shining down directly on Mina and the man she was with. It hit him hard in the chest, the sight of her with another man again but also the one man he worked so hard to keep her away from. Cable's eye glowing brighter and brighter red the longer he watched them. Ulysses' traveling hands didn't concern him as much as seeing Mina's glowing ones on him.
Cable pulled his assault rifle from under his cloak and cocked it quickly. Using his biotic eye, he struggled to line up the shot without hitting Mina. He briefly thought of shooting through her, knowing that she would just heal herself.
"Always showing up at the wrong time," Mr. Fantastic huffed before doing a very impressive and spot on Michael Jackson move.
At the end of his twirl, he grabbed his junk with one hand and pulled out a Glock with the other, pointing it straight up in the air and pulling the trigger. Everyone in the club scattered, people screaming about a shooter and running for safety. Cable was taken with the crowd, unable to fight against it, so he was pushed out the front doors.
Ulysses didn't react until Mina stopped kissing him, someone knocked into her and nearly separated them. He looked up angrily to hurt whoever it was but that's when he saw the chaos. The lights came on and the music stopped, Mina saw Deadpool and his dance partner, one of them holding a gun.
"You can't bring a gun to a dance fight!" Deadpool whined.
"Can't I have some normal fucking friends?" she groaned quietly to herself and rolled her eyes. She knew he would have to make her getaway before the cops showed up. There was no way she was going back to jail or back home, she knew she had to get out of there and fast.
She turned to look at the man she just dry humped and made out with in the dark. He looked back at her with an emotion that threw her off. He looked at her like he missed her, she'd never seen that intense before. Mina grabbed him by the front of his vest and tugged him down for another kiss.
He smirked through their kiss, mentally telling himself he found the woman of his dreams. She was kissing him amidst all the panic and most likely gang related drama happening around them. As quickly as she kissed him, she let him go and shoved away from him.
"Wait!" he called out to her as she rushed off with the crowd.
Ulysses chased after her, trying to keep up and maneuver around the people. She was a lot smaller with him and was able to move quickly. Mina didn't dare look back; she couldn't be tempted to go find the man she spent the best moments of her life with when she had to
He came out the front doors and stopped, looking around and over the heads moving past him. Ulysses looked around wildly for her, but he lost her.
"Hey boss, you alright?" Frank and a few men pushed through the crowd with their rifles at the ready. "Where'd they go?"
Ulysses paced back and forth, still looking for her across the street and around the people walking away from the club, "How the fuck does she keep doing that?!"
Frank stepped forward, "She? Now we got two bogeys. What she look like?"
He ran a hand through his hair in frustration, "No- I don't know. I wasn't talking about that. I didn't see anything."
"Lekan's upstairs I'll have him pull the tapes. We'll see if it's Cable or some stupid gang shit." Frank said and pointed to the groups of men to go patrol. "Boss, Imma need you to come up. We're too open right now." He leaned in as he spoke, nodded up to the roofs and slow passing cars.
Ulysses took one last long look around for Mina before spitting on the ground and grunting, "Clean this place out and tell the cops it was a firework gone wrong. I want this place running again by sundown tomorrow."
