X-Men 2: Humanity's Revenge IC Forum

[New Republic of Egypt]

Chris woke up in a motel just outside of St.Louis,Missouri.He apparently had blacked out while running and Hellspawn took over and began to run on it's own.He often has had conversations with Hellspawn knowing it is it's own being,and can't speak english,or any other language for that matter,without the help of Chris,that's why it often screams a horrifying sound.

"Oh God,Hellspawn,where did you take me!?"

"Oh were in Missouri"

"How in the hell did we get here!?!?"

"Well,I jumped alot but then I grabbed onto a plane and this is where we landed."

"I gotta get back to Oakland"

"WE can't do that Chris,we will be killed in a second."

"Well,where are we going then?"

Well we can go to New York,Miami,Hell,I'll take you to see the President of the United States."

"I'm going back to sleep,just dont kill me,okay?"

"No promises."

"Just go anywhere far away,and keep me alive."

"I'll try..sorta."

8 Hours later

"Wake up,Chris,Time for school!"

"What,Hellspawn?"

"Wake Up,We are in D.C."

"How long was I out?"

8 Hours

"Damn,your quick."

"I know,So where you want to go first?

"Well,Ive always wanted to see the Smithsonian."

"Well go then,I cant go in there showing."

"Okay."

Chris walked into Smithsonian,hoping nobody has seen the news,knowing that Hellspawn's act of violence was on CNN earlier today.

Nathan was not big on natural science or geology, so he, wisely, kept his mouth shut about the exhibits. He was eagerly hoping that after lunch they'd switch to the National Museum of American History. That was his specialty. He tried to maintain friendly communication with Umayma. He tried to avoid hot topics, but his knowledge centered around the Christian/Western viewpoint. He decided it'd be better to let her decide the course of conversation. "So... know anything about these exhibits? I admit to being ill-versed in geology." Nathan said.

Umayma shrugged. "Sorry, but this is my first time here..." she looked at the various samples of rocks on display. she stared at the lump of granite and it gave a small shudder. not really noticable unless one was looking for it.

She smiled and whispered to the rock. "nice to meet you too. I'm sure you will be here for a long while."

she continued on until she got to a sandtable... a deep table filled with sand that the visitors were allowed to play with.

she ran her hands over the grains of sand and began making some sketches on it.

simple drawings... that became more complex as it illustrated the hopes and dreams as one generation passes onto another.

The purifiers had pulled up in 3 work vans. There were about 30 of them and they were armed with the Belgium P-90. The vans pulled up beside a window where inside the class of about 16 mutants was along with dozens of other people touring the museum. The men lined up, brought their guns up,aimed and fired.


Seconds earlier

Rachael summers was also a chaperone on the trip. She was keeping and eye on the class and seconds before had been telling a student off for talking during the tour as a tour guide was explaining an exhibit when she picked up multiple minds arriving just outside of the museum. She looked up to see a group of men carrying assault weapons and they were lined up on the other side of the window.

“Get down!” she yelled, and a moment later the glass shattered as bullets flew through the room.

Outside the purifiers continued to fire until there 50 round clips was empty. They reloaded and hopped down through the shattered window, their intentions to kill.

[JuNii]

“Get down!” she yelled, and a moment later the glass shattered as bullets flew through the room.

Umayma pushed several of the nearby children and their families down, covering them with her body as the assault began. she hardened her skin to provide more protection as she scanned the room for the attackers.

"Stay down... ok?" she told those nearby as she pushed the sand table over to provide more protection. she low crawled along the ground towards the sound of gunfire.

She turned on her comm unit. "This is Umayma... at the natural exhibits... status? anyone?"

[New Republic of Egypt]

The men that fired in the Smithsonian were firing in the direction of Chris,and a bullet was just about to hit him,when Hellspawn took over and let his armor cover his body.

A bullet hit Hellspawn right in the back of the head.He turned around and creamed at the men.

Hellspawn then,with his thermal vision,located any movable cover the men hid and turned his arm into a rope like object and moved the cover.

He shot spikes at 4 men who were behind a desk,and another 4 that were crouched behind a table.

He couldn't find anymore until one shot his back he turned around to find 3 firing at him he shot out spikes and they dropped,either dead or severely injured.

He then began to search for the rest of the men.

She turned on her comm unit. "This is Umayma... at the natural exhibits... status? anyone?"

“Hahaha.” Laughed a voice over the com unit. “I’m not sure rather to say dead or alive?” a person then went smashing though the window rolling onto the ground a few feet into the room and getting back up onto his feet. A young man (Fowling President Mathias’s rule of what classifies a young adult) stood up who wore a black mask that covered the top part of his face and a black fedora, and a black suit carrying a cane. He lifted his cane into the air and stuck a nearby Purifier in the head.

[JuNii]

this was turning into a full battle field.

Umayma ushered everyone else to the far corner and she looked at Andrea.

"think you can tap into the security cameras around here so we can get these people out? Perhaps even use the firedoors to corral the attackers away from the people?"

She turned to Nathan. "Let's get these people outta here..."

a girl shrieked as a team of purifiers appeared in the doorway, they leveled their guns as Umayma dove towards them. "Turaab" she cried as she shifted into her sand form and sandblasted the men at the door.

silicon particles moving at high speed... natures little shirikens. polished bone was all that was left of the armed men. she quickly kicked the bones out of the way as she re-entered the room. her Abaya on the floor and she was dressed in her yellow and black X-men training uniform. "please, do not panic... we will get as many of you out as soon as possible."

[President Mathias]

Nathan looked around. His powers would be useless against so many at once. He saw they were easily outnumbered. He quickly came to the conclusion that the civilians were more important than these soldiers. He chose two men and started making them think that their partners were mutants. Instead of men with guns, they saw mutants unsheathing spikes and others flaming up. He also started blocking their partners in their ears. It was tricky maintaining these illusions. The others would realize and take em down, but he'd just choose another pair. The civilians were a neutral party, these men had chosen their side.

Andy hit the ground and rolled behind a display case. Using her tablet, she tripped the fire alarms for the museum, tapping madly, to get fire equipment and EMTs in place. She also put in a police call, passing along that there had been shots fired, armed assailants, and civilians taken hostage. That should be worth both the capital police and some SWAT teams.

Reaching HARD with her power, linked in the security cameras to her tablet, and tried to survey the field.

"MOMMY!!!!"
She looked up, saw a toddler frozen in the middle of the floor, terrified, as chaos reigned around him. The boy stood there, unable to even get out of the way of the armed men sweeping up the sides of the room.

Andy slammed her tablet into her messenger back and ran. She got to the kid, grabbed him, then clutching him to her chest threw herself into a feet-first slide for home plate --- out of the room and into a side hallway.

She opened the first door she saw -- a ladies room -- and carried the boy into a stall.
"You stay here, you hear me? Sit on the toilet, pull your feet up on the seat, and don't make a sound." She handed him a lollipop. "Stay right there."

She snuck back to the door cautiously, and checked the security camera outside the bathroom. Nobody there.
She snuck back out toward the main room, keeping low to the ground and her back to the wall. Rachel??

Nathan had taken cover behind a case and was working to maintain his illusion on the two armed assailants. It was difficult, they were trained to resist such attempts against the mind. Thankfully, his powers didn't attack the mind directly. He noted somebody with a tablet clack away for a brief second then the fire alarms blared. He was about to yell to them when they ran from the room. When they returned he altered their hearing to hear him say (therefore making sure nobody else would hear it), "If you can, jam the comm devices on these guys. The less they know the better."

[Lost heros]

Adam, thanks to his hearing training, heard the first bullet hit the window. He tackled to the floor a couple of civilians as the bullets crashed in. He kept them on the groun, and hid them behind a desk. A group of armed purifiers tried to hide themselves under the desk, but are soon killed by hellspawn's spikes. Adam grabbed the spikes and decided to use them as make shift swords.

He jumped from under the desk. If this were in a movie they would show time slowing down as Adam used the spikes to deflect the bullets. He charged through a crowd of bullets and cut off 2 purifier's arms. They were in extreme pain, and he kicked those two to the ground.

Over the comm unit he heard "I am not sure rather to say dead or alive." he looked across the room and saw the same man who took hostage the Canadian Parliament. He quickly fought through several purifiers to get to the man. He found himself back to back with him.
"Who are you?" he asked without turning to him.

[Katganistan]

Andy's fingers flew over her tablet as she searched for a way to jam their communicators.... then thinking better of it, set her skills to triangulation back to the transmitter.

"Who are you?" he asked without turning to him.

"A ghost." said Andrew to Adam. "now if you would excuse me I need to do something." said Andrew, Andrew then raised his cane about to strike adam though stopped, Andrew breathed in then breathed out a small cloud of smoke covered the area and Andrew ran,pushing by adam running into a side hallway towards Andy's location.

Andrew came up behind Andy in the washrooom and lightly tapped Andy on the top of the head with his cane. "Listen carefully. You are going to do this because you owe it to me.You are going to Hack into the cameras and delete the footage of me arriving right up to when we leave this place. Then leave yourself. We don't want another hostage crisis do we?"whispered Andrew smiling leaning down on the floor so he could whisper it into Andy's ear.

[Katganistan]

Andy grunted, her fingers still flying over the tablet. "Little busy right....."
Her eyes widened, and she turned, hugging the tablet to her chest and backing against the wall. "What the... WHAT the....?"

Adam was hit to the side, and not able to dodge it in time. However he heard Andrew's swift footsteps towards the side hallway. He kept his eyes closed and ran towards the hallway, using the spikes as a walking stick to figure out of anything was in the way. He got to the hallway, and opened his eyes.

He looked around the hallway, and saw nobody. "Where did you go!" he barked loudly.
He jerked his hand every which way looking for him.

Hellspawn not seeing anybody around but Adam,was slowly walking to him,he was about ten feet in front of him,be cause of his Thermal vission he often had trouble recognizing bad guys or good guys unless Chris was in control,but he wasn't so Hellspawn just let out the loudest Screech he could towards him.

[Ublia]

Conrad’s quiet country home here in Salem Centre had few neighbours. Asides from some school. However he had other things to attend to. Unlike New York out here there was fewer pray. Thus he often had to bring the prey to him. Deep beneath the stone structure that was his three story manor laid a secret prison. Once he needed to feed the prey would be brought up. However in captivity they were less and less strong. He needed a new source. "Hartmann?" he called emerging from yet another feeding "Yes sir?" his aide replied emerging from the nearby room. "Go and find me some more live prey. Sufficed to say my current supply is drained." he noted looking at how little he had been repaired. "I'll do what I can sir. As well sir some of the staff want to know about that school next door they say there have been some odd occurrences there." Conrad merely raised an eyebrow quizzically "All I know is that school is for the gifted and has recently had a change in management. However perhaps you should pay them a visit seeing as my condition prevents me." Hartmann nodded before leaving. Conrad meanwhile returned to his library he knew in truth what that school was he knew because he sensed what children attended it. Mutants. True they often were the finest source of energy however he couldn't risk detection. No I'll let Hartmann see what’s going on over there he smiled.

Her eyes widened, and she turned, hugging the tablet to her chest and backing against the wall. "What the... WHAT the....?"

“Come on , just do as I say and the quicker we get out of here.” Said Andrew pointing at Andy then to her tablet with his cane.

Adam turned towards the loud screech.
"Of crap," he said looking towards Hellspawn. "Come on. We are on the same side, now. We are both mutants see."

Adam slowly backed away. He seemed to recognize Hellspawn, but he couldn't exactly put his finger on where he had seen him before. Adam still held the spikes in his hands. He also had two other spike in the loops of his pants.

[Katganistan]

RACHEL! Andy screamed with her mind, backing away fast, still tapping on her tablet. "Uh... uh.... right, cameras...."

"My name,well this tings name,is Hellspawn"He said.

"My name is Chris,Chris Koley."He said withdrawing the suit from his head.

"It was nice meeting you, but I have a ghost to find."

[Xaviers school for gifted youngsters]

RACHEL! Andy screamed with her mind, backing away fast, still tapping on her tablet. "Uh... uh.... right, cameras...."

The loud calling in her head woke Rachael summers from under the destroyed museum exhibit stand. Propping herself up and pushing debris off of herself. “Who is this” she asked telepathically.
