Bring It On

Chapter 35

Gothica smiled up at Logan, still levitating them above the room and through the hole in the roof; she eagerly watched him expression. Waiting for that pacific look that would ensure dominance over her prey.

Logan reached for his throat, trying to break free from Gothica's grip. He growled angrily, he had no choice but to resort to violence now. Popping out his claws, he slashed down on the hand that was holding, but his claws made no kind of contact with her skin. Gothica had used her vampiric reflexes to evade his attack and to move behind him, grabbing him by the scruff of his neck. He was now unable to make any kind of move moment.

"Is something the matter, Logan?" she chuckled, "Are you frozen with ecstasy from my touch?"

"Don't flatter yourself, girl." he managed to say through gritted teeth, "You're just lucky that I can't move right now."

"Oh, don't worry. You'll be moving pretty soon, but it won't be the kind of movement that you'd like." she waited until they were completely out of the house before she made her attack. Without warning she sunk her fangs into his neck and began draining him of blood.

Logan screamed as he felt hot pain coursing in his neck. It felt like fire and ice and he knew that her bite was contaminating him. If he didn't pull away fast he would not have any blood left to even use his healing factor to fight the contamination. He was beginning to grow weak.

Suddenly he felt Gothica loosen her grip upon his neck, he took this chance to fight for his life. Slamming his elbow into her gut she finally let go, with the wind knocked out of her, and her concentration disoriented this gave Logan the opportunity he needed to take her down. He reached back behind him, grabbing her hair, he flipped her over him, and held onto her as the came crashing back down into the house. The impact made them fall through Gothica's room and down into the living room. Gothica was out cold, but Logan was still active and still had enough energy to go after Jubilee. He got up, ready to leaved the house, but found that there were four occupants left inside that had other ideas.

Rosie, Bong-o, Stag, and Snake stared at the scene in front of them. They didn't have to put two and two together to figure out that Logan was an intruder that had to be taught a lesson.

'Great.' Logan thought, 'More of Jubilee's reject friends to take care of before I go after her.'

Back in the woods after Jubilee had blasted Logan, she fell to her knees, exhausted from focusing all her energy on not killing.

"So tired… This kind of stress can't be good on my pregnancy. I have to find Creed and have him get me outta here before Logan comes back."

She sat there for a few more minutes, then got up, making her way back towards the river where she last left Creed and Turk. When she found them, they were already back on the shore. She sat down again on a nearby rock and waited for them to approach her.

Creed and Turk saw her and went up to her.

"You have a lot of nerve to be waitin' here after what you did, frail."

"Save it, Creed." she growled, still exhausted from the use of her powers, "We have no time to do our ritual arguments right now. We have to leave."

"What? Why?" cried Turk.

"Because Logan has finally found me… I can fight him, but that would mean the loss of my baby. I just can't risk it."

"Then we'll take him. You just-"

"You can take him, but me and Jubilee are leavin'." interrupted Creed, "I ain't gonna stick around and play hero."

Turk narrowed his eyes, "You son of a-"

"Creed's right, Turk…" she said in a weak voice, "The stress is too-too…" suddenly she collapsed, Creed caught her and cradled her in his arms.

"You take care of the runt for me, fur ball."

"And where are you going?"

"Someplace where I know he won't find us… And neither will you." with that Creed took off for the car.

"Human filth! I'll-" he started after Creed, but was stopped by the sound of Rosie's scream. He growled to himself, knowing that his friends needed him more than Jubilee right now.

Back inside, Logan was fighting for his life from the four remaining conscious occupants.

Rosie used her magical powers to summon Mother Earth's plants to try and entangle him. Bong-o turned his body in a gas like vapor, engulfing Logan's faces, and choking him with his poisonous fumes. Stag and Snake used their telepathy to daze and confuse him, while the others continued to attack him with their powers. Rosie focused on having the roots attack him like many whips, while Bong-o turned back into his stable form and began delivering powerful blows to Logan's face, unfortunately hurting himself in the process as well.

"Ow! What the hell is his head made out of, adamantium or something?"

"Bingo, string bean, and that's not the only part either." Logan punched Bong-o, grabbed him, and threw him at Stag and Snake making them loose their hold on his mind. He then turned his attention on Rosie, who was now changing her tactics.

"You're a lot strong than I thought." she said, "Let's see how you do against my dancing petals attack!" many flower pedals appeared in the air, they began to glow, then they swirled around Logan's body in a fast pace, and started cutting into his skin.

"You're gonna pay for that, darlin'!" he looked behind him. Stag, Snake, and Bong-o had got to their feet. He smiled sinisterly, as he made his way over towards them. The pedals still swirling around his body now swirled around the three men as well. They all screamed from the shear pain of the petals cutting deep into their skin. Rosie gasped in horror and stopped her attack. "Just as I expected… Now it's time to get this done and over with!" he charged at Rosie and leapt through the air, claws out and ready to take her out.

"Oh, no!" she shrieked.

"Rosie, look out!" Turk suddenly appeared and knocked her out of the way and grabbed Logan's hands, using his momentum against him, and threw him clear out of the house. Taking a few walls along with him. Turk raced outside in time to see Creed and Jubilee pull out of the driveway and to see where Logan had landed. He stopped within ten feet of Logan and prepared for a fight, "It's been a long time, old friend."

Logan sat up, "Not long enough." he spotted the car with Creed and Jubilee in it and got up, "Are you gonna be smart and get outta my way or are ya gonna be dumb like your friends in there and try to stop me?"

"I believe that you already know the answer to that question."

"Figured as much. No hard feeling if I wipe the floor with you?"

"It's already too late for worrying about my feelings Logan, when you broke Jubilee's heart and are now threatening her very existence."

"She brought it on herself."

"Bull shit! You just don't want to see the truth, because you don't like it!"

"No, Turk… You don't want to see the truth, because you're so pussy whipped by a girl who won't even give it up to you!"

"Bastard! I won't have you talking ill of the woman that I love! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"

Turk and Logan began to fight, but their fight was rudely interrupted by the sound of the car that Creed and Jubilee had stolen. The car ran over Logan's body, the back tire right on top of the middle of Logan's back, pinning him to the ground. Turk looked at the car in confusion.

"Creed! I thought you were going to take Jubilee out of here!"

"Well, I would have, but Jubilee had a change of heart. She didn't want to leave you guys behind to take the runt on. That and she told me that if I ever wanted to have a chance at raising our kid, then I'd better saver yer alls asses."

Turk chuckled, "And Logan says I'm pussy whipped."

"Hey! Shut up! Or else I might just turn around and leave yer ass behind. Now go grab the others, before the runt comes too."

Turk nodded and did as Creed said. He gather all of their friends up, loaded them in the back seat, and climbed in the front seat next to Jubilee.

"Alright. Let's ride!" Creed put the car into override and booked it as far away from this place as possible.
