X-MEN #5

SAVAGE PART 5

By:Liam Lloyd

(Inside Beasts Mind)

Beast looks at himself in a mirror and all he sees is a monster!

Beast: What have I become? Im a monster! As I get further and further into my mutation, I become more and more of a monster. Soon I wont even be able to think or feel. I will just become an un thinkable, un feeling demon. I will have no emotion, I will just be an out of control Beast.

Savage sees Beast suffering, and enjoys watching his pain.

Savage: Ha ha ha

Mojo: Come on, Come one, Its all very well watching them suffer mentally but I wanna see blood, I wanna see gutts. I want ENTERTAINMENT!

Savage: And Entertainment you will get.

Mojo: Oooo Oooo OOoo, lets see em fight again, that was fun!

Savage: As you wish. How about X-23, Wolverine and Beast.

Mojo: Nice choice, all animals with claws. I love it!

Wolverine, X-23 and Beast appear in a stadium for a tournament.

All three of the clawed mutants face off in the stadium. As they fight, a crowd of people watch in picks up X-23 and throws her to the other side of the stadium. Then Wolverine throws himself at Beast and knocks him to the floor. Wolverine goes to slash Beast but X-23 flying side kicks Wolverine in the back of the head which knocks him to the ground.

Savage and Mojo watch as the X-Men tear each other apart. But...

They are unaware that Rouge and Gambit have escaped their cells.

Rouge and Gambit manage to sneak their way into the main control room where Savage and Mojo are located. Savage and Mojo turn around and spot the two mutants that escaped.

Rouge and Gambit: Hey!

Gambit throws his staff at Mojos head.

Mojo: Ouch! Now that hurt.

And Rouge confronts Savage.

They talk and circle each other.

Rouge: This ends now Savage.

Savage: No! It begins now. For years I have been watching your species.

Rouge: What are ya?

Savage: Wouldnt you like to know.

Gambit jumps on Mojo and starts hammering away on his head.

Mojo: (Burp) excuse me!

Gambit: uh!

Rouge: Ive head enough of this!

Rouge goes to touch Savage to absorb his power.

Savage: I wouldnt do that if I were you.

As Rouge touches Savage she gets a vision of the future!

Savage; Ha ha ha ha!

Rouge: Oh... My God!

Savage: Beautiful isnt it?

The vision that Rouge got from Savage is now stuck in her head, but she chooses to keep it a secret.

NO ONE KNOWS WHAT SHE SAW!

Suddenly everythings slowly fades out to white.

Rogue: What goin on?

Savage: Ha ha ha ha ha!

Rogue, Beast, Wolverine, Storm, Gambit, Collosus, Havok, Hope, and X-23 all wake up from the illusions made by Savage. As they wake up and go back to normal they see all the destruction that they have created. Whilst they were trapped in the illusion that had been created by Savage they had course a lot of destruction. They have destroyed the X-Mansion, the whole place is nothing but rubble and fire. The chaos has left many of the students unconsious.

Wolverine: What the hell happend?

Nobody knows what the hell happend but Rogue knows it is far from over!

EVEN THOUGH THIS ARC IS FINISHED, ITS FAR FROM OVER, THE MADNESS HAS ONLY JUST BEGUN!

NEXT: THE X-MEN TAKE ON THE NEW MASTERS OF EVIL!
