X-Men: Restoration presents The X-Spector
Chapter Two: The Chosen Gamers
The lights turned back on to see the room was transformed into the Danger Room. They had run into the Danger Room of all places to be where they had just run from an army of sentinels. Great, just great. The Professor stared around sizing every single person in the room up. He wheeled around the room as he saw each of them with frightened and shocked faces on. Ella quickly lifted her hands in the air concentrating on taking time back to when this first began. She felt herself grow weaker…
"No you don't!" The ghost said as the Professor lifted a hand and she went flying across the room. "You exist in my time. You were annoying anyway, Go away…" she disappeared before their eyes. They couldn't believe it.
"Don't you dare!" Logan growled as his claws were pointed at the Professor.
"You can't touch me even if I was in spirit. Besides, you all are the chosen gamers. You landed in this place because I have chosen you." The ghost said. They looked at each other curiously. "Or because I want to be amused by your antics to escape my clutches." The ghost laughed.
"How did you get into the Professor!" Wolverine growled as he watched him intently.
"Oh, that. It was so easy. Camlin knocked him unconscious in the basement. He was so defenseless. I use to be like you…I use to be a mutant but my life ended too soon during that ugly Apocalypse. I had the gift...no, the power to possess anyone I wanted. You can see how easy this is." He laughed. Everyone shivered in fear. "Well, let's start this already. I'm already bored by this nonsensical jabbering."
He disappeared and reappeared in the control room. They looked at each other in confusion. Logan gave Kurt a deciphering glance but he shook his head with a heave of a heavy sigh.
"I can't something is holding us in. Kitty can't either." He whispered as a dusty, ghost town appeared around them; the wild wild west. They were stuck facing Rainier, the new guy who wasn't fond of them. He stood at one end of the town dressed up in his fancy attire as he eyed them.
"He wouldn't hurt us…would he?" Coralie whispered getting out of her meditating phase. "I can't do anything without the help of Camlin; she is the missing link between me and the ghosts. I can feel what they are feeling but I can't conjure them up or pull them out unless I have a connection to Camlin. Which is NOT bloody likely since Rainier is charging…" She yelled as she ran the opposite direction. Eric blasted him with an electric blot but it went through him like nothing.
"Oh, no." Was all he could say before Rainier hit the dusty ground and sent them all flying in the air as chunks of the hard desert soil flew up in their faces. Logan was angry beyond belief as he fought hand to hand combat with Rainier. Rainier, however, was trained in boxing and was standing his ground. Ansleigh jumped catlike from the roof of an abandoned saloon house as she deviously laughed. She stood next to Rainier.
"OH, come on!" Noah said as he turned invisible.
"You have the easy way out invisible boy." Reagan grumbled as she high kicked Ansleigh in the face. "She is going to feel that in the morning…" Ansleigh had a surprise in store and set off a landmine that was hidden nearby.
"There are landmines. Well, this is a very happy day." Sakura said as she pleasantly smiled at the now evil Ansleigh. She opened her western duster jacket to reveal eight small water canteens. Sakura took the water from inside of them, her hand becoming like a whip as she hit Ansleigh and Rainier who was still dealing with Logan. Eric thought quick on his feet as he make shifted an electric spear and threw it at both of their current foes.
The space became dark as Rainier and Ansleigh fell over from the shock. Sakura and Eric high fived as Logan wiped the sweat from his brow. The room transformed into a long hallway that was dimly lit by gas lamps. They heard a voice at the end of the hallway and a click of two pieces coming together as they saw Mark appear at the end. He laughed sinisterly as he tossed his dice in the air.
"Let's make the invisible, visible again…" He caught them and a blue light shot out of them and surrounded what was invisible. Noah came back into view.
"I guess lucky charms does have skills" Logan grunted as Mark came closer. Lyra appeared as she walked next to Mark. Lyra had blended into the limestone bricks and now her fiery appearance was intimidating all of them as she changed her skin tone a deep red orange and her hair light yellow. Sarah appeared at the end of the hallway.
"They can't do much…" Noah said in between his teeth as he backed up "They are our plans and defense team…"
Sarah turned into a rolling fog that clouded everyone's eyes. Sakura couldn't clear the fog as her hands wafted the fog.
"No clearing!" She said as she tried to search for someone else. She panicked as she backed into the cold stone wall. She heard a voice slice through the silence that filled the hallway.
"Sakura, you always thought that being optimistic would make everything better. You are just hiding your own fear…" the chilling cold voice said.
"No! Being happy is just the way I am." She insisted as her breath quickened. She backed away from the wall. She whimpered as she felt the space grow colder. She hated to be alone. She called out for help but no one answered. She started to hyper ventilate as the air around her became thick from Sarah's fog. She ran in what she thought was the hallway…but Lyra hit her on the head and knocked her out. She fell to the ground cold.
"PLAYER SHIMIZU is out!" The Professor roared out from above. The fog cleared and all the gamers saw the Sakura had disappeared along with Mark and Sarah.
"Okay, we are down to Invisi-boy, Coralie, half pint, Kurt, Reagan, Eric…that means" Logan's mouth dropped open. He saw that the room had changed into an open field. Richard appeared and he transformed into a dinosaur. The sky started to swell around them as tornadoes touched down around the dinosaur. They saw Storm flying in the air controlling the tornadoes and running straight towards them.
They breathed out heavy sighs as they stood their ground. "We have to get out of DR so we can figure out what is going on. The ghosts have possessed everyone in the mansion." Kitty squealed as she jumped out of the way of an electric bolt.
"Ve better get moving!" as he grabbed Reagan and bamfed her out of the way of another electric bolt. The tornadoes were too close though because they were sucked up and thrown in all different angles. They were now separated and now the enemy could pick them off one by one by using their weaknesses to their advantage. Would they survive it?
Logan awoke as he stared at the dinosaur above him. He breathed heavily down on him. Logan let his claws out as he debated whether or not to attack. He couldn't hurt one of his students. Yet, how was he going to get out of this situation? It had all started with the lights this morning…then everything went downhill from there. The lights! They were the key to everything. He did the only thing he could think off which was to sink his claws into the ground. Richard began to pick him up and he growled furiously as his claws gripped the ground, ripping a huge gaping hole to the power lines. They were sparkles gleaming around them. He smiled as he looked at Richard in the eyes…hopefully, the clever kid was still in there. He retracted his claws as he swung at the dinosaur's head. He had to warn the other students before these ghosts took over them too. It wasn't over…it was just the beginning.
