Richard Laine




Location Brotherhood Headquarters - New York, New York - Hallway
{"And so it begins."}





Richard's eyes narrowed at Wanda. "I believe I said I needed a word with her. Alive." That cool and smiling voice was a venomous hiss. "She is useful. When I have what I need, you can have her." Though he did crack a smile at Guin's wisecracks. The girl was amusing, he would give her that. Though his smile turned to a frown at the 'Well, this is new'. That was... How was any of this new? Wanda had her powers for some time and was adept at using them. Snake slitted eyes narrowed as he stalked towards the elevator. Let Wanda and the girl figure it out. Let Magneto figure out that cat fight. Rule one of male survival? Don't get involved in a females' fight.

Stepping in from of the elevator though not actually in it, he looked over the three girls. "Ladies. Richard Laine. Don't believe any of you know a girl from Alaska?" He gave a charming smile, twirling a knife in one hand. He wouldn't hurt them, not if they were reasonable. But he would keep them out of the fight. Gesturing with a mocking slight tilt of his head. "Why don't you step on out slowly and we have a little chat? One of your little friends is bleeding out, and another is rabid." He mentioned, examining the knife's edge, while seeming to talk about the weather. Though his eyes never left the three. He was ready to jump at any moment to attack. "And Wanda, dear, you're father is not needed. Unless your admitting your weak?" Adder mocked.



Ayita Dyrkin




Location Brotherhood Headquarters - New York, New York - Hallway
{"You want a monster?"}





Ayita panted, and bones groaned. Cracking and splitting skin she soon appeared, kneeling next to Damon. Her hair normally wild was even more so. Blood was smeared across the top of her chest, across her throat and down from her lips. Panting heavily, the Alaskan girl looked at the wound. It was superficial. Turning she tilted her head, looking at Damon. Her eyes weren't wary, they weren't anything. Blank and amber they contained only deadly intent. Reaching out slowly, she hooked a slim finger under Damon's jaw. Forcing him to meet her eyes.

There was not a trace of humanity. Sadness and fear, yes. But no trace of mercy. Snarling, Ayita nodded once before releasing him. Standing, she pulled the knife from her boot and tossed it aside. Metal would not help. "Get to the van." She whispered, her voice hollow. "They want a monster, they will have one." She looked at the body of Wonderland. Not feeling anything for the woman who she killed. She had been an enemy, and had been destroyed. Even if the others hated her, she did what she had to.

Carolina Reed


Location: The Lab, Stairwell





Carolina remained where she was when she got down onto the lowest floor, just as the elevator got to the bottom floor as well she decided to stay there for the moment. Seeing Scarlet Witch and Adder were there waiting for them, she watched helplessly as Scarlet Witch flung both Marygold and Allison into the wall of the elevator. But oddly enough Scarlet Witch didn't pay attention to her body either as she moved behind the two other mutants waiting for her moment to strike and make her move.

Scarlet Witch seemed to be more focused on Guin more then anyone at the moment as she grabbed her friend and then flung her across the wall and then kicked her. Guin seemed to be fine and making sarcastic and witty remarks to her, while the two were going at it Adder approached Allison and Marygold who were still in the elevator. Seeing him holding his knife and twirling it around, she quickly decided that it was now her time to strike. She quickly moved behind Adder and whispered into his ear giving him a command. "Why don't you take that pretty little knife of yours and then turn on Scarlet Witch."

Once her command was implanted Carolina returned her body and quickly waking up, sitting herself up looking towards Allison and Marygold, then over towards Guin. Scarlet Witch seemed to be acting weird, seeing the woman punching herself struck her as very odd, but turning her attention back at the others. "We need to go now and continue with the mission." Carolina suggested. "Planted a little suggestion in his head which should distract them enough."




Cassandra Reed


Location: The Lab (First Floor)





Cassandra listened in on the radio when Nina's voice came through giving her some information on their end, the one mutant Wonderland was now dead which was good. Though hearing that Damon was injured during the fight was bad news, but he was still alive, she went to the computer and started to try and hack into it and see what information was on there. She was typing as fast as she could to try and see what she can get off of it. But that was taking way longer then she would have liked, and they were running out of time looking down at a nearby clock.

She gulped slightly seeing that there was only thirty minutes left on their mission before the virus was released, and the computer wasn't giving anything useful. Cassandra turned to look at Charlie who seemed to be taking Oshea's death pretty hard, getting up she approached the young mutant gently laying a hand on his shoulder. "We need to head back down and regroup with the others." Cassandra suggested looking down at Oshea's body for a moment.

We will give him a proper service once the mission was completed we need to go." Cassandra said before making her way towards the stairs, turning for a moment and shot her icer two more times at Othelo and Sabertooth, she really didn't want them waking up again as she headed down the stairs. "Going to meet up with you guys at the lower levels, just give me directions." Cassandra requested.

Allison Andrews

Location: The Garage
{"I totally need a grande mocha nonfat double espresso latte right about now..."}




Allison was in no mood to be messed with. What was once sadness now manifested in anger. She didn't know where it came from. It was like a suggestion was planted into her head from elsewhere. She wanted to hit someone. And sure enough, the elevator doors opened and she was met with a face she didn't recognize. Moments later, she was flung against the back of the elevator.

If she were in her usual mood, she would probably go gaga over this guy. He was handsome and polite. But she didn't trust him. She wanted to punch his smarmy face in and keep doing so. However, before she got the chance, Carolina returned to her body and said she planted a thought into his head. Guin was also preoccupied with Scarlet Witch who seemed to be punching herself in the face. Allison shrugged it off. She stepped out of the elevator, ready to throw down if need be. Either they returned to the mission or they fought. She didn't care anymore.

Damon



Damon stared at ayita and slowly shook his head. "I'm not about to go back to the van" His gaze met hers and did not waiver. "I am more useful out of the van then in it. To you and to the team...so"

With the pause Damon straightened more and looked determined. "What is the plan?" where ayita was fierce Damon was purely determined. This was not going to turn into another mission where he was a battle medic. He refused.

Nina van Essenhout



Location: The Facility





Ignoring the pretty unnecessary comment about out-running Oshea, Nina nodded and Pietro to indicate she was ready. However, can one really be ready for going at super-speed for the very first time? Exhilarating was one word for it, alongside nauseating, confusing and disorienting. Stumbling slightly as they came to a stop and awaited the elevator, Nina straightened up her suddenly windswept bun. As the pair stepped in to the lift as it arrived, Nina shot a glance at Pietro. He didn't seem to be too torn up about Oshea's death, but then again, he'd been with the group only about five minutes longer than she had, and she doubted it was for the same reasons. Also, not everyone made their emotions clear, especially in pressured situations like their own. Still, Nina had some reservations about the speedster.

"Are you sure you'll be able to aid us in taking down Magneto and your sister? No matter what we may have to do?" She asked him as they descended - not in an accusatory tone, but serious enough to warrant a hopefully serious answer. Regardless of your situation, it can never be easy to aid in the capture - and perhaps even death - of close family.





Charlie Farrier



Location: The Facility





Cassandra's words and touching gesture made Charlie feel a tad bit better, but he was just as eager as she was to get out of the room - not just because of the clock ticking down, but to no longer be in the presence of Oshea and his killers. Jumping slightly at the jarring shots of Cassandra's icer, he didn't hesitate in following her out of the room. Despite his numbness, he too had overheard that another one of them was injured, although thankfully not fatally. From what he could recall, Damon was the dude with the sick tats.

"What are we going to do if we run into Magneto?" He asked quietly, finally speaking after several minutes of silence. He hoped that nobody in their team was wearing metal, but he was certain Magneto could be imaginative with anything metallic in the basement. "Is it going to be a "fire-at-will" kinda situation, or do you have a plan?" With Sabretooth and Othello tied up and unconscious, along with Wonderland dead, he figured that Magneto would be the biggest issue to deal with right now.

26 minutes until Virus is released




Ayita Dyrkin and Damon Fawkes

You guys are in luck, as no one shows up. No sounds come from the hallway on either side of you, not since the gust of wind that took Nina and Quicksilver away from you. You all are alone in the hallway, though you could easily hear the conversation between Pietro and Cassandra on the radios. This is all up to you about what you want to do, though most of the fun seems to be on the lower levels.

Nina van Essenhout

He thinks for a moment, trying to come up with a response to her question. It was a good one, one that needed to be addressed sooner or later. "There won't be a problem, though... I will only seek to knock them out, that is more of my goal. I don't want to kill them... They tend to do horrible things, but they're still my family," he replied, before responding to Cassandra's call for directions down. They did reach the bottom pretty quickly, to the chaos that was down below.

Team 3

Pietro is the one who responds to her question for directions. "Head back down the stairs, a left once you reach the bottom. The third door on the left has another stairway down below, then take a right and another left and you should see the elevator that takes you down to the lowest level," he said, his voice crackling through the radio. Sabretooth and Othello don't seem to be moving yet, so that's good news.



Marygold Isley




Richard heads straight for Wanda, or well, really Guin in Wanda's body since Carolina's suggestion worked like a charm. Magneto doesn't seem to be heading out of the lab any time soon either, looks like he thinks Wanda and Richard can handle things on their own. Wanda is not too thrilled though, and she once again punches Guin in the face, that nose is starting to bleed and hurt, a lot.

Marygold smiled at Carolina when she told them what she had done. She heard a ding, as the elevator went back up as she stepped out. Made her wonder who was up coming down now. Hopefully someone on their side, that would probably be handy. A moment later the elevator returned with Nina and Pietro.

It was nice to have them show up, at least they now definitely outnumbered Wanda and Richard if need be, but there was no time to waste. She raced over to the steel doors. "Pietro, see about helping Guin, you could probably grab her quickly while those two are distracted. Nina, think you can do something about these doors," she said, looking towards the group, "The rest of you, be prepared for when these doors get opened, we don't have much time to dawdle".

Pietro raced over to Guin(Wanda) and Wanda(Guin). He grabbed onto Guin's(Wanda's) arm, and smiled at the one who looked like his sister. "Heya sis, gotta run," he said with a smile before racing back to the group, leaving Wanda(Guin) there with Richard coming right at her.

Guinevere Stark

Location: Brotherhood Headquarters - Outside the Main Lab - New York, New York
{"If I can't save the world, then I'll just have to avenge it."}


Guin was gradually getting a grasp on her situation. It hadn't been Wanda that caused the switch - it had been her. Her mind raced through the possibilities. Could it have been an effect of the first serum that Magneto released - the one prior to the fatal dose? She supposed it could have caused a mutation...or even caused a non-expressed X-gene to activate. Yet as much as she wanted to systematically analyze what had happened to her, there was a bigger problem. S.H.I.E.L.D. and Stark Industries were both compromised as long as Wanda was in her body.

"Agent Stark is compromised," Guin said, reaching her hand out and trying to destroy the com device on her body. She didn't want Wanda to have access to it. Yet she was unable to remove it. She sounded just like Wanda, with the same soft lilting accent. She knew the X-Men there would have no reason to believe her - but she had to try, at least. If Wanda decided to pretend that she was Guin, it could ruin the team's efforts to secure the drug. Guin cursed under her breath as Wanda punched her again, but at least it was doing damage to the Scarlet Witch's body and not her own.

Her heart broke slightly when Pietro didn't realize they had been switched. She shouldn't have expected any of them to be able to see what had happened from a logical standpoint, but it didn't matter emotionally. "Pietro - that's not Guin," Guin warned. "P.H.I.L. stands for Prototype of a Helpful Intelligent Likeness. He doesn't have very many functions at the moment, but he can use the gradient in order to determine electric potential as it relates to an electric field. He's also adept at determining the appropriate Gaussian surface to use when dealing with a uniform charge density. I'm still making modifications for the nonuniform...And he played Take On Me after we used the Joyride Protocol," Guin then added. Hopefully, that'd be enough to convince Pietro that at least something was up. Scarlet Witch, as far as S.H.I.E.L.D. intel was concerned, didn't have any technical skills.

Guin then turned to see Adder heading towards her. "I'll hold him off - just get the serum and have Cassandra handle it," Guin said. She hoped that Pietro would realize what had happened, otherwise it would just seem like Scarlet Witch was either insane or had suddenly switched sides. She took a deep breath, before holding her hand out in front of her.

"I am one with the force and the force is with me," Guin muttered, before pushing her hand forward, her fingers tensed. And this time, it worked. The Adder was sent flying backwards, crashing up against the wall. Guin couldn't help but grin. She was finally having some success with this.

Carolina Reed


Location: The Lab, Stairwell





Carolina watched as her planted suggestion was working, but she still looked between Guin and Scarlet Witch it was really looking weird for her as she watched the two fighting each other. But she had a mission to complete as she started to get up and started to make her way down the hallway looking over her shoulder when she heard the elevator doors opening and saw Pietro and Nina coming out of the elevator which she was relived to see. They could do this they were so close they was just one more door most likely that they needed to get through.

As Carolina watched Marygold asking Pietro to grab Guin and take her to safety, she listened to Wanda (Guin) speak, she still wasn't sure what to believe. She waited over by the door as she thought about using her ability to sneak in and maybe even try and possess Magneto but decided against it and waited for the door to be opened.




Cassandra Reed


Location: The Lab (First Floor)





Cassandra listened to Pietro on the other end when he gave her directions on where to go, which was good looking towards the body of Oshea once more. She really wished that he was alive still, and take them down to the bottom floor as quickly as possible. But sadly Sabertooth had taken him out, which left them to try and get to the bottom floor as quickly as possible. As she entered the stairwell and proceeded to get back down towards the ground floor. Her attention went back towards Charlie who asked what would happen if they bumped into Magneto, which was a good question.

As far as she knew Magneto was far more powerful then she was, and if they had any metal on them, then they would be pretty much dead. "We try and take him out as quickly as possible." Cassandra said as she continued to make it down until she was back onto the ground floor, she then went back to the radio. "Thank you Pietro." Cassandra said as turned left and headed down to the third door which lead them down the stairwell. "We are on our way now to the elevator." She stated.

Richard Laine




Location Brotherhood Headquarters - New York, New York - Hallway
{"Hangover without the whiskey. Oh this is cruel."}





Twirling the knife in a deft hand, he stalked towards Wanda, not realising Wanda was no longer Wanda exactly. Giving his signature charming smile that would remind many of a crocodile with a charm, he tutted slightly. “My dear, you punched her in the face. Threw her into a beam. I believe she is indeed compromised.” The hired gun was a little annoyed however, he head was a little fuzzy. Like something else was there, but perhaps it was just his own powers kicking it up a notch? Pushing away that though, he cocked his head and paused midstep. His smile draining to a stern frown. His eyes narrowing slightly as he studied Wanda more closely. She looked like Wanda, even sounded like Magneto’s daughter. But why would she tell ‘Cassandra’ to get the serum? Did the sister turn with the brother after all? Doubtful, she had truly wanted to harm her brother’s girl. Though in another way had she not taken her twin’s lover out of the fight and to possible safety. Hell, it was something he would do if that was his intent. And why was he advancing on Wanda anyways? She was betraying the project wasn’t she… This plague…

Richard gave Wanda a dirty look and a raised brow. The scolding look of someone who wanted to be pissed but just couldn’t bring himself to be fully upset. ”Get that damned door open, Wanda.” His tone a stern lecture as he crossed closer to her with long strides more hurried than threatening, the knife sliding away into his business jacket. Leaning down til he could breath in her ear, the Adder growled deeply. ”You could have trusted me brat. I, too, have a sibling I care about.” Cuffing her lightly upside the head, he straightened. ”We’re talking later.” That voice was not brooking anything but acceptance to his order. Glancing back at the X-men, Richard hissed a breath. What a idiot this brat was! ”Stop forcing it and use the damned code. Kids these days.” He snapped sharply, kids… They never remembered anything but their own numbers. Longer strides that were full of purpose took him to the console as he entered the code to the doors.



Ayita Dyrkin & Damon Fawkes


Ayita paused mid-step to look back at Damon, her amber eyes holding only the sharp wildness. Holding fast to her wild nature the woman- age did not really apply to Ayita- bared her teeth in a snarl. ”Limp and lame. You are a weak link and distraction to the pack.” She growled, her head tucking to hide her vulnerable throat. Hesitating she glanced to the side before focusing her eyes the Host again. A bit more humanity in them but not overly much. Perhaps he could help? Even injured humans could help in different ways. The hunter who could not hunt, could still make traps. Giving a snarl, the shifter turned her amber eyes on Damon again. Waiting for a reply, pausing for precious seconds. Her form ready to bolt from the scene to the fight. Her voice quieted from it’s vicious tone. ”Go back to the van, Damon. I would not want to kill you like the others.”

Damon studied Ayita and shoot his head. ”I am not going to go back to the van.” He did not want to be tossed back to the van like some useless thing. He would fight until he was unable to. He wished to help complete the mission not be stuck in a van. He was there to complete a mission….By being in the mission not in some van twiddling his thumbs.

There was a feral half roar of frustration from Ayita. Stalking over to Damon, she grabbed his arms and wrapped them around her neck. She was only slightly smaller than he, but her strength was such she could lift him in part. ”Hold on to me. I’ll take you to the damn fight,but if you die. I’m going to kill you myself.” The threat was not idle as she growled into his ear. Her form blurring and bones cracking before a stout doe laid next to Damon. The nicked ear flattened as she snorted with dessent at his decision. There was more than one way to fight and survival was paramount! Humans were such, for lack of better terms- idiots! Stags, all men were antler bassing stags with little sense of aught else. Her tail flickered in annoyance as she hefted to her hooves.

Damon sighed. ”Fine but I can walk you know.” He was about to grumble more when he saw Ayita become a deer…. She never did that. That made him swallow all complaints. ”Alright let's go.” Determination in his voice.

The doe turned her head and nodded to him and moved with sure steps. If he held on he could limp along best he could, or be pulled along. Ayita was not about to stop or wait. This form was not comfortable and scraped against what she was doing and where she was heading. The deer was meant to flee away from Man, away from the fight. Not charge towards it, not with a Man beside her. Her nicked ear twinged with phantom pain. One did not charge Man lightly. But this was not lightly. And if the bastard did die, she would find a way to resurrect him again, to kill him herself. Her hoof stomped heavily at that thought, and her head turned to cast a baleful amber eye at Damon.

Doe Disapproval.

Reaching the elevator and assuming no one was there, Ayita pushed the down button with a button nose. Stamping her hoof once more as she glared at Damon again.

Allison Andrews

Location: The Garage
{"You don't want to mess with me when I'm angry..."}




Allison had many racing thoughts at the moment and she wasn't about to get involved in anything other than stopping this virus. It was then she overheard Scarlet Witch and Guin talking. It confused her what Scarlet Witch was saying because (and she was just spit-balling) it sounded like things only Guin would know. Why would she convince her brother to stick around? What did that mean then? Did they body swap? How was that possible?

The confusion was only added to when she was struck with not one vision, but two. The first showed Magneto looking back as the door opened and calling out for a woman named Cecily. It seemed Magneto would be waiting for them while this woman handled the virus. Useful information. The second one was less easy to understand. A huge figure stood in space observing Earth. As it gets nearer, it consumed the entire planet with little effort. Worrisome.

Allison snapped out of it and it was all too much. The visions, the virus, the people talking, the annoying Brotherhood who stood in their way.

Oshea....

She clenched her fists. Her eyes glowed pink before she stood up and shouted, "Would you two just shut up!" She used whatever ounce of telekinetic power she had to fling Richard and (who she assumed was) Scarlet Witch in Guin's body backward as their heads collided with the wall.

She stood, breathing deeping with clenched fists. She was unaware if her eyes returned to normal, but she maintained a cool voice. "Magneto is waiting for us. There's a woman named Cecily transporting the virus in five minutes. We need to stop her now!"

Nina van Essenhout



Location: The Facility





Nina could understand Pietro's answer - and his reservations behind potentially killing his family. She sympathised with him in that, and certainly didn't expect him to land a killing blow himself. But there would be trouble abound if he interfered in what could possibly be fatalities rather than prisoners at the end of this mission - in fact, they were already one all in terms of deaths. However, as the elevator arrived at their destination, such thoughts had to wait until the time potentially came. They had enough stuff to deal with at the moment.

Nodding in affirmation at Marygold as she gave her suggestion, Nina made a beeline towards the metal doors, only glancing towards Guin and Wanda for a moment before deciding the situation could be handled well enough without her. Knowing Guin, she'd probably be annoyed at Nina's intervention. Although, Wanda was saying some odd things? And then she... attacked Laine? Nina physically paused now, confused at the sudden shift in dynamics.

"What is happening?" She muttered to herself, eyes having followed Laine as he flew across the room and crashed into the wall. Was this supposed to be yet another mind trick? Odd choice, if that was the case. And now Laine was marching across the room to enter the key code to the currently immovable doors himself. It would appear her strength wasn't needed at the moment. But things seemed to be moving extremely quickly in the room, with the blondie suddenly losing it and throwing both the strangely-acting Laine and Wanda across the room. Nina hadn't recall any telekinetic powers in Allison's file, but it was a useful addition to her mutation. As long as she didn't lose her temper too much, that was. Irregardless of this new bit of information, it was Allison's other power that took most of Nina's attention. The virus was leaving soon.

"Damn it! Get those doors open, we don't have time!" She yelled, heading to the doors herself. She'd take care of Magneto the best she could - from what she'd gathered about everyone else's mutation, she could withstand a battering of metal far better than anyone else. Hopefully this Cecily didn't have a tricky power to deal with too.





Charlie Farrier



Location: The Facility





"Oookay... so it is a free-for-all then." He muttered in response, following Cassandra closely down the stairwell and into impending doom. From the stuff he was hearing over the radio it sounded like things were already getting a little messy down there... but surely they outnumbered them, with one of the Brotherhood dead and two more hog-tied and harmless? Honestly, did Magneto really pose that much of a threat against so many of them all at once?

Already apprehensive at what lay below the pair, Charlie shook his hands, attempting to stop the cold spreading over them. Fire would be more useful at the moment. Well, he thought, anyway. It was easier to summon flame anyways.

"You just tell me when and where to light my fires - it's becoming a little easier to think about doing it now." He added in a grim tone, still thinking on Oshea and that awful thought of it he had just been a bit quick in roasting Sabretooth, maybe he'd be okay. Regardless, he didn't want it to happen again. Not tonight.

5 minutes until Virus is released








Yeah, that nifty counter up there isn't lying. Your time is cut short by him hearing you coming. Also, Allison... That was a great idea, props to you, but Guin and Wanda's mind switch seems to have come to an end, and that looked like it was pretty painful for her. Especially since she already had a head injury. That isn't your only problem. As the door opens, it makes a loud sound from the doors being forced open a little before. Magneto is standing there, looking at all of you, with a smile. The woman who Allison had mentioned being named Cecily is messing with a few things at the counter top, holding a vial in her hand. It is sealed, for the moment anyway.

Cassandra, Charlie, Ayita, and Damon

Cassandra and Charlie show up at the elevator where Ayita and Damon already are. Looks like your luck has run out yet again. The elevator is taking a little longer than usual to get back up, since someone just went down not too long ago. Footsteps are coming up behind you, and turning around, the four of you are facing 2 people. The two of the being Avalanche and Toad. The pair look at you, before the ground begins to shake. Toad is a little off balanced as well, but it looks like you guys are in the middle of an earthquake, while underground.

Othello Boyavard

Lucky you, somehow you manage to wake up on the second floor. Your all alone, with a still snoozing Sabretooth. The two who were up there seems to be gone, but the body of their friend is still there.


Marygold Isley




The ceiling starts to shake above them, but the ground their standing on seems solid enough. For now anyway, sounds like they ran into a bit of trouble upstairs. Though the problems for them right here were just starting. "Wait, I'm confused. Whose who? What the hell happened, and why did Allison just send Guin flying? All of this is making my head hurt," Pietro said as the doors opened. He wasn't the only one, but there was no time to figure things out, they had a bigger problem.

Magneto was standing in front of them, and the woman who Allison had said was named Cecily was behind him. She looked over at Pietro, confused, because the woman looked a lot like Wanda. "Oh, she's my other sister. Didn't know she existed until a few years ago, probably should have mentioned her. She has mutant powers too," he replied, and then looked to face his father.

Several metallic objects from within the room were flying about him, and he was glaring at Pietro. He shrunk back slightly, it seemed like he was scared of his father. Or scared was putting it lightly, Pietro looked terrified, and this was the guy who could runaway from just about anything. "So, you decided to return. Now, where is the young lady you left us for? I'm anxious to meet her," Magneto said, before sending things flying at the group.

The first object headed straight for Pietro, it being only a metal stool. However, the next thing that went flying ended up doing a lot more damage. There had been a filing cabinet sitting in the corner of the room, and it was heavy. Pietro wasn't quick enough to pull Marygold out of the way before it hit her.

She collapsed to the ground, dazed, her vision getting blurry. Pietro managed to pull her back a little bit though. Her head was bleeding, a very deep gash was on her head. She managed to focus on Pietro well enough, before speaking, "Listen to what Allison said, stop your other sister, whatever her name was, from releasing that virus".

Another stool comes flying, hitting Allison in the head, only enough to cause a headache. The cabinet doors from within the lab come flying off, and are soaring around him, easily blocking your path. He quickly sends one of them flying at Carolina, using enough force to knock her down onto the ground.

Then there is the other little problem behind you. Scarlet Witch is coming towards you as well, and she does not look happy either. Looks like this is it, either you stop Magneto, or he potentially destroys the world with the help of Cecily. This was one messed family that was for sure.

Guinevere Stark

Location: Brotherhood Headquarters - Outside the Main Lab - New York, New York
{"Maybe I'm just not cut out for this line of work..."}


No one seemed to understand what she was saying - typical. She couldn't help but think that had Tony been there, he would have understood in an instant. It took a special sort of person to comprehend to discuss the intricacies of quantum tunneling with, one of Guin's favorite topics in quantum mechanics. Maybe their brains were wired a little differently than the rest of the world. But the fact that no one paused to take note irritated her, to say the least.

Before she could reply to Richard, the world seemed to invert itself and Guin found herself...as her. She was back in her own body again! She let out a small sigh of relief, about to explain to everyone what had just happened, when Allison's eyes glowed a frightening shade of pink. The next thing she knew, she was seeing stars as she felt her head crash into the wall. Her vision refused to clear up and all she felt was pain, located in various pressure points of her body.

A+ follow through! Guin thought. It took her a moment to realize she hadn't exactly said it and she was instead collapsed against the wall in a feeble position. She could hear everyone as if they were underwater, barely able to make out the conversations. They were opening the doors? Magneto was there? The virus would be released early? Everything had gone so horribly wrong in a short span of time. She feebly raised her hand to her ear, flinching slightly as she pressed her comm to switch over the channel.

It felt like a slow and painful process, as she typed in the manual access code for the Stark Secure Server. It was thirty characters long, with a variety of symbols, upper case letters, and lower case letters. It didn't resemble any word in the English language. Her entire body felt broken as she painstakingly pressed in the code. She missed the old code - WARMACHINEROX86. It had been a not so subtle jab at Rhodey, but an amusing one. Her hands were shaking as she finished punching it in.

"J.A.R.V.I.S., enact the Jericho Protocol...Less than five minutes. Use the workaround I sent you to get a live feed of my location," Guin said weakly. She hoped that the AI had received her audio message, as she tapped her comm a second time to switch back to the main channel. She heard the muffled noise of Magneto talking about who she assumed had to be her. God, everyone was obsessed with her. She stood to her feet, finding the task surprisingly not too difficult, despite her blurred vision.

"I'm right over here, asshole. C'mon, let's have at it. Let's fight. I'll take you on and I bet I'll even win. You can leave Pietro the fuck alone."

Richard Laine




Location Brotherhood Headquarters - New York, New York - Hallway
{"Well, damn."}





Richard growled as he pinched the bridge of his nose. "Bloody hell..." Leaning against the console, he watched the chaos unfold. His head was pounding and not just from the blow to his head, but his assumptions were being so badly screwed up. So Wanda was now attacking the X-man and Pietro against when she had been helping him? It made no sense! Rubbing his forehead, Richard felt rage stir inside him. He had been manipulated, played! Had Magneto played him on purpose to help the X-Men? Was Wanda now going to sell him out as a traitor?

Shifting into his name sake, the Adder slithered towards the cure and Cecily. Shifting once he was behind the metal wielder, and moving closer to the woman. Pulling out his second hand gun, the hired man frowned at the fighting. "What the hell is going on?" The Adder hissed, his slitted eyes looking furious. "Look, worry about the damned plague. I am not getting paid enough." Richard muttered darkly, eyeing the X-Men. What the hell was going on? His job right now would be to stop that cure going out best he could. But without compromising his position in the Brotherhood, more than it already had been. But he had been helping Wanda, hadn't he? "I hate brats."



Ayita Dyrkin




Location Brotherhood Headquarters - New York, New York - Hallway
{"Why can't we get a break?"}





The doe flicked her ears towards the two new comers. Her amber eyes wide as she lowered her head and pawed the floor. Snorting angrily, the doe moved a few steps away from Cassandra and Charlie. While they were not the enemy, her chest, throat and mouth was dyed red. She hadn't bothered to wipe away the blood from Wonderland. Add into the fact that she was in her doe form, Ayita was incredibly uneasy. This was a form to flee in, or more preferably never be in. She hated the memories it dragged up, the fear. But it was the second set of arrivals that funneled her fear to rage.

Ayita's form whirled as she turned and shifted to human. Shoving Damon behind her, the half feral woman snarled. "Get down the elevator. Get the weapon." The amber eyes narrowed with feral intent. Praying Damon would get the other two away. To understand that they must not gain her attention. Ayita shed her human form and turned into a monster. Great stripes crossed her pelt as she moved into a lunge for Toad. If he was already off balance, she could finish taking him down.

Carolina Reed


Location: The Lab, Stairwell





Carolina watched as Allison went into full rage mode, and just flung both Scarlet Witch as well as Guin against the wall, looking between the three women she wasn't sure what was actually going through her head, that's when she heard the door opening. When she looked over her shoulder Carolina backed up slightly when she saw that it was Magneto waiting for them just behind the opened door. Carolina noticed the other woman in the lab who oddly had the same look as Scarlet Witch. Were they twins or something, she didn't know but Pietro mentioned that it was yet another sibling.

Carolina watched as Magneto flung a metal stool across the room hitting Allison and then she turned around just in time to see a metal cabinet door flying straight at her. Using what little time she could braced herself as she felt the wind being knocked out of her and her body hitting the floor. Which briefly brought a small image of her being attacked by Hel back in Coventry, Carolina felt a small trickle of blood sliding down the side of her forehead.

Carolina eyed Cecily in the next room the virus was so close now, as she closed her eyes and quickly went over and tried to possess Cecily in the next room. However she was flung back into her body once more, having her attempt failing, she quickly stood up and got into a fighting stance. Carolina eyes Adder, Scarlet Witch and Magneto all before them she really didn't like the odds right now as she felt the ground shaking above them. "C'mon we can take them all on!" Carolina said as she eyed Pietro and Guin, Guin being the most qualified at the moment to try and take the virus down and Pietro being a speedster they could try and break through. "Try and get past them." She did think about trying her attempt at possessing Cecily again, as she heard her sister over the radio.




Cassandra Reed


Location: The Lab (First Floor)





Cassandra looked towards Charlie for a moment and gave him a slight nod. "That's if we can have someone stop the virus before it gets released." She said as she continued to follow until she was face to face with Damon as well as Ayita she was glad to see that the two of them were alright now. "Glad to see you two are alright." Cassandra said giving them a slight smile, as she waited for the elevator to come up and join the rest of the group downstairs. That's when she heard two sets of footsteps coming down from the stairs, she would quickly turn around drawing out her icer when she saw it was Avalanche and Toad.

She started to feel the ground starting to shake under them, causing her to loose balance firing two shots at Avalanche and Toad, which caused her aim to go off a lot. "Are you trying to kill yourselves to!" Cassandra yelled at them, looking over at Ayita Damon and Charlie. "We need to stand together." Cassandra said looking over at Ayita telling them to head into the elevator. "Now would be a good time to light them up Charlie." Cassandra said towards him.

Allison Andrews

Location: The Garage
{"You don't want to mess with me when I'm angry..."}




Allison wasn't paying attention to everything else around her. She had a goal in mind. The woman, Cecily, had the virus and they had precious little time to get it and stop. Magneto would try whatever he could to stop them and they had Scarlet Witch and Richard to deal with too. Soon as the door opened, it started. Magneto had already started his metal onslaught, throwing things and nearly hitting Marygold. He managed to hit her on the head which disoriented her a bit.

Now she was pissed.

The others could handle Witch and Adder. She had her eyes set on Magneto and Cecily. She conjured what power she had as her eyes glowed pink again. She picked up some wooden crates near her (to avoid having to have a mental battle with the man) and threw them at him and Cecily. While the metal flying around Magneto deflected one of the crates from hitting her, she managed to get a good blow on metal man.

"That was for hitting me! Just wait until I get a hold on you for what you did to Oshea!" She inched forward, holding her hands to deflect whatever would come her way while the others handled themselves.

Damon

Tattoo count: 2 wolves


Damon found himself thrown off balance when Ayita pushed him back, but quickly recovered. "Okay, but be careful. Actually.." From his chest two of the three wolves spilled and formed. "Have someone to help" One of the wolves moved and as Ayita lunged the wolf lunged for Avalanche, its jaws snapping as it let out a fierce snarl.

The other wolf moved with Damon to the elevator that he quickly got into. "Hopefully this will work" His hand went to the top of the wolf's head and patted it before he notched an arrow and pushed the button in the elevator to start going down. If he had to fight he would...he just hoped now that he could help intercept the virus.


Othello

condition: somewhat medicated


Othello slowly blinked awake and growled at the scent of singed fur and wounds. He slowly moved his head and looked at how he was bound and snorted. Did they not realize they were dealing with a magician? Part of his act was escape! With a scoff he looked forward and teleported forward enough to get him out of the bondage. He shook at his fur and shifted to human before lightly nudging sabertooth with his foot. With a sigh he bent down and proceeded to take off Sabertooth's bindings before looking at the body of Oshea.

"Well they must have left in a hurry. How inconvenient" He looked back at sabertooth. "He will wake eventually for now I need to get those animal abusers" With a flare he turned and made his way to finding the group. His main target being the one with fire.

Nina van Essenhout



Location: The Facility





So here they finally were, staring down the man himself. Nina knew the importance of taking him down - not just for their current situation, but also for the future. The world couldn't have a genocidal maniac like Magneto running around, not with the numbers and power that he had. However, the virus was more important at the moment. Noticing the startlingly familiar looking woman behind Magneto, Nina shot a sharp look in Pietro's direction. A mystery sibling, that he just so happened to forget to mention, and was withholding her mutated powers right now? Nina wasn't sure as to whether he was being purposefully vague, or if he was really just this useless. Either way, she'd be having words with both the Professor and Cassandra about him if they were to survive this. Too much had gone unsaid, and they had been walking half-blind into this situation because of him.

Watching carefully as Laine made his way towards Cecily, Nina made her move. With Magneto nice and distracted courtesy of some wicked telekinetic moves by Allison, Nina sprinted past him, laying low as possible to make her way towards her target. Both Laine and Cecily seemed preoccupied with one another, and it was practically child's play to storm up to Cecily; backhanding her roughly across the face and to the floor as she snatched the sealed vial from her hand. This was half of Nina's job done - now she only had to sneak past Magneto again and get the hell out of dodge.

Backing up quickly away from Laine, Nina winced as something connected roughly with the left side of her temple. Sending dots scattering across her vision, the sharp pain gave way to a dull throb, courtesy of whatever metal object had just flown by. Thanks to her durability however, she was saved from concussion - but considering the situation, she was fully aware that things could go south very quickly.

Sending Laine a quick warning glare, that clearly said "Don't follow me", Nina began making her way back across the room, just hoping she kept out of Magneto's attention. Some blood trickled into her eyes as she ran, but that didn't matter - she had the virus, and she would be damned before the Brotherhood got their hands on it again.





Charlie Farrier



Location: The Facility





Running into Damon and Ayita made Charlie feel a tad more comfortable, what with the whole strength in numbers thing - however, Damon was injured, and Ayita was a... a doe? A deer? A female deer?

"Interesting choice." He muttered, looking at her curiously before his attention was drawn further up the corridor. There were the other two mutants that Quicksilver had mentioned - Avalanche and Toad. Toad reminded him of a nerdier version of those Hunter zombies on Left 4 Dead, while Avalanche... well, it was hard to take him seriously, despite the sinister look upon his face. The guy looked like he was wearing blue spandex and an oversized white condom over his head. Still, it wasn't a great feeling when the ground began to shake.

Stepping forward as Cassandra called for his help, Charlie raised his hands as steadily as he could manage as the room trembled around him, praying silently he wouldn't hit Ayita or Damon's wolves. A massive tongue of fire erupted from his palms and shot through the air like a ball, landing squarely on Avalanche. Toad had hopped away to safety, but Avalanche yelled in pain, stumbling and flailing to put the flames out. While the fire died down quickly, the shaking of the hallway stopped. Charlie's eyes met Avalanche's as the singed and pissed-off mutant glared at him, skin visibly red and shiny.

"Oh man...is the elevator here yet?" He called out nervously to Damon, not taking his eyes from his foe.

Cassandra, Charlie, Ayita, and Damon

The elevator finally shows up, but it seems to be moving slightly. Avalanche might have caused some problem with it when the shaking began. .The earthquake that was temporarily halted allowed everyone to get back their balance before it started up again, and Avalanche was mad. He glanced over at Cassandra, and saw the weapon in her hand. Pointing at it, Cassandra would be able to feel it shaking about, before it broke itself apart. Toad, meanwhile, was able to easily jump out of the way of Ayita's attack. He started laughing, almost taunting her when he jumped.

Whoever wants to get in the elevator, you will pop up downstairs this round.

Othello Boyavard

As he goes along, looking for the two who had knocked him out, Othello would be able to feel the ground shaking below him. Avalanche seems to have found something interesting to occupy his time, and it might be them. If he hurries, he'll be able to catch up to the group.



Marygold Isley




As Marygold's vision slowly came back into focus, she could see an interesting sight. Nina had gotten the virus away from Cecily, which was a good thing, Allison was throwing things around, and Pietro looked like he was trying to come up with something. After a moment, he glanced back at Guin who had just yelled at Magneto, painting a big target on her back, before looking at Nina again. He let out a sigh, before racing over to Nina, grabbing hold of her, and bringing her back to the other side of the room with the rest of them. The vial wasn't broken or anything, but they had the virus. He hadn't come back unscathed though, blood was coming from his side, something had stabbed him as he had ran back through with Nina.

"We need to get whatever we came for and destroy everything that is down here. If any of the research is left, then they can just make the virus again," he said, before looking at his injury, and yanking out a piece of metal. Marygold was surprised, Pietro seemed to actually be taking charge a small bit, which was impressive. She managed to get up off of the ground, so she was standing at least. Though she was a little disoriented.

Magneto looked at Guin and Allison, before staring at just Allison. "You little girl, you don't seem to realize just who you are dealing with," he said, before shooting off bits of metal from the swarm around him. The first few bits don't hit her, but a few larger things hit her. She gets hit in the head again, a gash appearing on her forehead, but that isn't all. A few bits stab her in her side, blood begins to ooze from the injury.

He then looks over at Guin again, "So, your the child that Pietro ran off with. Not much of anything are you?" he said, before sending a few things flying at Guin. Luckily, she doesn't get hit in the head again, but a piece of metal stabs her in her right shoulder.

Wanda has been fairly quiet, watching her father beat down the group, but she looked over at Nina, and realized what she had in her hands. She made to throw her backwards, but Pietro got to her first. He slammed into Wanda, sending her flying into the wall, and her hitting her head on the ground as she fell.

Then there was the problem of his father. He remembered his conversation with Nina earlier, and decided that he would do something before someone else ended up dead. He didn't have the best relationship with his father, but he couldn't let them maybe kill him. Quicksilver raced backwards, going in a circle a few times to pick up speed, before running and tackling Magneto. He had seen what happened to Guin and Allison, and he wanted to break his father's concentration.

It surprisingly worked, Magneto fell backwards and the bits of metal that were surrounding him fell to the ground. A better look at Pietro, and Marygold could see that punching through the metal shield had its toll. He had cuts all over his face and hands, but he didn't seem like he was going to stop or something. This was something new that she had never seen come from him. This was not what she had expected.

"Leave them alone!" he shouted out, before proceeding to punch Magneto in the face. He backed off momentarily, Magneto was getting back up, slowly though. Looks like he might be slowing down in his old age or something.

Guinevere Stark

Location: Brotherhood Headquarters - Inside the Main Lab - New York, New York
{"That man is playing Galaga! He thought we wouldn't notice, but we did." "}


In a matter of seconds, the situation had changed drastically. Allison was out for blood, throwing whatever she could at Magneto and the other mutant. Nina had charged past Magneto, managing to lay out Cecily and swipe the virus. She blinked and a moment later Nina was back with everyone else, and Pietro was covered in little cuts. And while it wasn't the time or the place, she had to admit, it was hot seeing Pietro take charge.

"Oh, go fuck yourself, Magenta," Guin groaned, biting down on the inside of her cheek to keep from screaming. The metal implement was still in her shoulder and on closer inspection, it seemed to have been a clamp. Fun. When was the last time she had a Tetnus shot, again...? She'd probably need to chase up that file.

Guin then decided to take advantage of the numerous distractions everyone was providing, quickly making her way down to one of the computers in the lab. Her concussion was still affecting her vision slightly, but programming was where she truly shined. Computers had been her first love. She took a deep breath before proceeding to open up a terminal window and started drafting lines of code. If successful, the code would cause a data wipe of the entire system, deleting everything and anything that Brotherhood had ever tried to put on these computers.

It'd also automatically pull up Galaga and refuse to let the computer run anything else.

Pietro's almost forgotten sibling (and we aren't referring to Miss Dane at the moment) fell down to the ground as a result of Nina's attack. The virus had been taken from her hand and it was, for all intents and purposes, complete. The last step they needed to perform would be to disperse it, since all of the real chemistry had been taken care of. As her back hit the ground, she coughed for a moment as she tried to fill her lungs with air. By the time she had recovered, she saw her half-brother deck Magneto.

She threw her hand out, and in seconds, the air molecules around Pietro's legs had condensed. Air, being compromised of mostly nitrogen or oxygen, initially turned into the liquid form. Pietro's legs were surrounded by liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen. With the low temperature associated with these phases of matter, the liquid could burn his tissues. And once solidified, the oxygen would then become a contact explosive.

"Pietro, that's enough!" Cecily called out. Unlike the twins, she didn't have any hint of an accent to her voice. If anything, she sounded American.

Pietro looked at Cecily as he found that his legs were stuck. They were freezing, and it made him grateful that he could heal quickly, probably the one thing stopping him from losing all feeling. He glared at his sister, what was she to say about him needing to stop? They hadn't even known that they were related until a few years ago, so why the hell was she protecting their father?

"What the hell Cecily," he said, the anger clearly being heard in his voice. She was stopping him from knocking out Magneto, which was his only goal. A few others here wouldn't hesitate to kill him, and he was wanting to prevent that no matter what. He hated the man, but the last thing he wanted was for him to be killed. "You don't realize what your getting into!"

"I know exactly what I'm getting into," Cecily replied. She kept her focus on the molecules surrounding Pietro, ensuring that he remained frozen in place. The more agile and able he was, the larger of a threat he became. In the corner of her eye, she could see Guin crouched over a computer, typing rapidly all while having a piece of metal stick out of her shoulder. She held her other hand out in Guin's direction, concentrating before repeating the same process. This time, however, she tried to freeze Guin's hands. Cecily hadn't started to overextend herself quite yet, able to comfortably hold the two processes.

Guin's fingers flew across the keys as she continued to work, hitting RETURN with a sense of finality as the code was finished. But she didn't have time or a chance to make any modifications, as the air surrounding her hands froze. She didn't have any sort of regenerative healing, so she felt the full chill of the frozen air. Its temperature was roughly −361.82 ° - if she didn't act quickly, she'd likely lose her hands. She screamed, barely able to comprehend that the data wipe had been successful. All of the computers in the labs were now useless, with Guin's program now turning them into glorified Galaga terminals.

Ok, now Pietro was pissed off when he heard Guin scream. He had to think fast, make her lose her concentration or something. in a flash, it hit him. His legs were frozen, but his hands and arms were still free. He glared at Cecily, and no matter what she thought she knew, she was clueless in his minds. "Sorry sis," he said, rotating his arms in a large circular motion. He managed to focus the cyclones so that they only hit Cecily, and not anything else.

She was sent flying backwards, hitting her head on the back wall. Any concentration she had would be broken, as well as the back of her head starting to bleed. He was worried about trying to unfreeze his legs, since he knew nothing about science it made him risk something bad happening if he tried. But since Cecily's concentration had been shattered, she was no longer able to manipulate the phases of the air molecules. The frozen oxygen and nitrogen surrounding Pietro's legs and Guin's hands instantly returned into its gaseous phase, with Cecily now lying unconscious.

Guin ceased screaming, staring down at her hands for a moment. She didn't understand how it had happened, beyond it being the result of someone's mutation, but she knew that oxygen and nitrogen caused things to become brittle when frozen. Very gingerly, she shifted her fingers, relieved to find that they didn't shatter and fall to the ground. She had sensation in them still and the overall damage seemed to be a case of frostbite.

"Computer data has been taken care of - just got the hard copies left. Nina, get that sample back to Beast or destroy it," Guin said. "And Erik Lensherr - you're fucking under arrest. You too, Wanda Maximoff. And rando sibling in the back. Laine...Yeah, arrested. You can surrender now and go into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody or get your asses kicked."
