X-men The Real Story - Chapter 25.

The team arrived at the lab in amazing time, the team stormed off of the plane and straight into the huge compound, using the element of surprise.
Scott was the first out of the jet and used the highest power of his visor and destroyed the front of the compound.
Magneto was next, and he threw up a magnetic field to stop the hail of bullets that were heading their way.
Jean sprang into action next, she closed her eyes and threw her hands out, a huge wave of pink energy shot from her and knocked all of the soldiers down and out.
Once the immediate threat was taken care of Magneto put the magnetic force-field down and Wolverine and Sabretooth shot off, their animalistic sides fully in control.
Wolverine shot his new shiny blades out of his skin and tore into the tainted supple flesh of the evil soldiers.
John clicked his flamethrower, threw his head back and let out an animalistic roar that rivaled both Sabretooth and Wolverine's.
Ororo cried at the sounds and the sights that surrounded her, Ororo had lived the life of a Goddess, she was a woman of peace and right now, she was stuck at the gates of Hell.
Her team mates were searching for Amara, her job here was to try and save some of the poor souls that were trapped here.
Ororo rushed down the long metal corridor leading to the holding cells.
A massive solid steel door blocked her way, she had no way of getting through, as she stood pondering on what to do she found herself with the unlikeliest of allies – Erik Lensherr – he used his powers to rip the door open, as though it were made of paper.
The two entered the corridor, and at Ororo's startled gaze he smiled somewhat grimly.
"I have been in their position before my dear, and I would never leave a brother alone in this hell." He said grimly and the two started to methodically save the prisoners.
Meanwhile Pyro, Wolverine and Sabretooth ran through the icy cold, slippery tunnels.
Pyro felt rage consume him, he knew the reason for the artificial coldness, the manufactured ice, it was to torture Amara.
With her mutation, her body temperature was always slightly too high and when the temperature dropped, so did her energy.
Pyro picked up the speed, knowing that he was close to his love, he took a corner at full speed and slipped, he fell painfully but that fall saved his life, because as just as he fell a bullet shot just above his head.
"John!" A female voice screamed; a voice filled with terror and anguish.
Amara ran, and slipped, falling to her knees beside her fallen lover.
"Oh Johnny, my Johnny, oh baby, oh no. No, no, no." Amara sobbed clutching desperately onto his prone body.
She had heard them approach, who wouldn't with the general chaos their arrival caused.
She had seen John, her hero, come barreling down the corridor, she had also seen the guard take aim, so much time to see all of this and absolutely no time to save him, she heard the shots ring out, had seen her lover slump. She didn't even register Wolverine tearing into the soldier.
Amara threw herself upon the body of her still-warm love.
"I take it you missed me then?" John wheezed and Amara shot up looking bewildered.
"Oh Thank God!" Amara sobbed and peppered John with kisses.
"Doubt God would've saved me." John joked feebly.
"Don't doubt it Saint John!" Amara said pointedly and kissed him deeply.
"Jesus Christ you two, save it for later!" Sabretooth called rolling his eyes.
"Pleased to see me alive and well Vic?" Amara taunted approaching the man mountain.
"Yeah. No-one gets to kill ya but me." Victor snarled in her face.
Amara just grinned and kissed the tip of his nose.
Sabretooth managed to hold his grin off and quickly grabbed Amara in a tight hug.
"You want this collar off?" He asked.
"Hell yeah!" Amara grinned, the promise of retribution in her eyes.
"How are you out of your cell?" John asked coming over to her side.
"You're the one who taught me to fight remember?" Amara answered with a grin and John smiled back, proud of his girl.
Using his lion-like claws, Sabretooth ripped the collar off of her delicate neck.
Amara kissed John once more and then let the fire rush over her body, glorifying in its warmth.
The battle raged and there were many fatalities, all were lab staff.
They rescued eight other mutants from the compound, all of whom had harmless mutations, all of whom would soon be returning back to their lives.
Amara and John had blown up the entire lab, making it look like an accident so that the government wouldn't be any wiser.
As soon as they got back onto the jet with everyone else, Amara finally gave up the fight and passed out and John sat with her cradled in his lap.
He knew that it would only be a matter of time, the cold had drained the majority of her energy, and flaming up had quickly drained the rest.
The team was just starting to unwind from the mission when Scott piped up.
"Everyone, be prepared for more trouble; we're getting no response from the mansion and Jean picked up a distress call from the professor." Scott explained; his face grim.
The fatigue everyone had been feeling was now replaced with an adrenaline rush.
