Daily Bugle News Flash!
The UN stunned the world today by accepting Genosha into its membership. Genosha, an island off the coast of Africa, has been a haven for mutants ever since the overthrow of the previous government, which used enslaved mutants as a work force. Magneto, terrorist and one of the most powerful mutants in the world, has been made President of Genosha.

President Magneto plans to address the UN Council this afternoon, during the offical 'Welcome to the United Nations' ceremony.

Editorial, by Daily Bugle Publisher, J. Jonah Jameson

What have that bunch of crackpots in the UN done now?! Accepting Genosha, a country that has caused more power than Iran and Iraq put together, was insane enough, but to recognize that mutant mass murderer, Magneto, as its leader? Mark my words, we'll all have cause to regret this one day soon.

Still, maybe we can bring some good out of this. What if we exported all these masked menaces, and gave them a one-way ticket to Genosha! That blasted wall-crawler should be first on the list!

Magneto and his allies, Mystique and Sabretooth, are in the Genoshan embassy. Each of them has full diplomatic immunity, and cannot be arrested for any crimes past, or present. If they are caught breaking the law now, the most that can be done to them is for the State Department to declare them persona non grata, and revoke their credentials, deporting them.

The XMen, having heard of this Genoshan event, are nearby in New York City, in a hotel suite, deciding what to do.

The Fantastic Four are also concerned, but Mr. Fantastic is in Florida, consulting with Nasa, and the Human Torch is in Australia, on vacation. [If anyone wants either of their characters, please take them! They would be terrific here. BTW, Mr. Fantastic is Invisible Woman's husband. hinthinthint!] The Thing and the Invisible Woman plan to be on hand at the ceremony, to see for themselves just what Magneto has to say for himself. She-Hulk, former member of the FF, has been invited to join them. Since she never could resist Ben Grimm's baby blues, she has agreed to meet them there.

Black Cat knows Wolverine, and he has let her know he is in town.

[ooc: There you have the setup. I have not made definite plans for anyone's actions, including Magneto's plans. Let's see where this goes from here, with nudges from me. Again, I encourage anyone to contact me via email or MSN Messenger (NealeH42) or IM (Neale42) with any questions, suggestions, or concerns)

Rogue

Rogue looked around at her companions from where she was leaning against the wall of the hotel room, her arms crossed in front of her, her eyes lighting on each Xman in turn. They were in a real bind here. Magneto and his crew had just been given free reign to do anything they pleased with no consequences. How could those pompus diplomatic idiots be so stupid? Well, that was now a mote point. The question now was what could they do about it?

Rogue cleared her throat and spoke first, her southern accent coming out harsh even to her ears. "Okay, anyone want to put a suggestion on the table about how we prevent a catastrophe from happenin'? Not that is hasnt already but it could turn even nastier...and I'm bettin' it will."

Psylocke

The elevator wasn't rising quick enough for Psylocke. Her toes tapped impatiently on the carpeted floor of the enclosed glass elevator as her piercing violet-blue eyes watched the numbers light in turn. "C'mon.. I could have took the stairs faster." She grumbled under her breath, as she tugged restlessly on the towel draped around her neck..

Her thoughts where mired with the breaking news of Genosha. She had taken advantage of the gym downstairs, subjecting her body to a strenuous workout and swim to try to clear her head.

The elevator doors parted and she rushed out into the hall, shouldering her way past the persons that stood in her way. Sliding her key in the lock she opens the door and steps through closing the door behind her. She sighs in frustration as she leans back against it.

"The fools have given Magneto and his acolytes free reign. Will they never learn?!"

 

[Isolde]

Rogue

Rogue's lips lifted into a half smile at Psylocke's statement as well as her rushed entrance. "You read my mind," She said to her. "Question is what are we goin' to do about it. Better yet, what can we do about it?"

News flash!

The members of the XMen who are in town to observe Magneto's actions have turned the large-screen HDTV in their suite to CNN. Interrupting a report on the effect that Genosha's admittance into the UN may affect international, the following broadcast is made:

We interrupt this broadcast for an unscheduled news conference by the President of the United States.

The screen goes to a familiar symbol, the Presidential Seal, then fades to a view of a podium in the White House press briefing room.

Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States,

Stepping behind the podium, President George W. Bush takes the stand and clears his throat, smiling at the camera.

Now I know y'all are wondering about what the US plans to do about that Genosha problem. Well, I'll tell ya, I called together a lot of experienced problem-solvers, smart people, can-do folks. They said call up the man I'm about to introduce to you, a legend who needs no introduction, so let me introduce...

The camera shifts focus to the door to the left of the podium, where another very familiar symbol is walking in. Audible gasps are heard from the audience of press-corps reporters as they catch sight of the living symbol of the United States of America,

Captain America!

http://a840.g.akamai.net/7/840/1163/31201c09ae4a8a/www.marvel.com/comics/characters/xtras/capamerica.jpg

The audience claps wildly, their hard-bitten reserve melted by the sight of the Sentinel of Liberty.

His quiet authority completely eclipses the President, who steps back from the podium as he shakes Captain America's hand, smiling to the cameras.

Thank you, Mr. President. I will be brief. The President has asked me to address the nation, to assure my fellow citizens that there is no cause for alarm over the villainous Magneto's presence in the fair city of New York. As a member of the United Nations, the United States is obliged to obey their laws as our own. One of those laws is that the leader of any member nation has the right to address that body at any time, and no nation has the right to impede that. Magneto, as the leader of Genosha, cannot be prevented from speaking before the UN General Assembly tomorrow. That nation's chosen amabassador and other associates have been granted diplomatic immunity, as a courtesy between nations. However! let me assure each of you that the Avengers stand ready to watch over these proceedings, and if anything untoward should occur, we will be on hand to stop it. Thank you.

Ignoring the shouted questions from the press, the Avengers' chairman steps back the way he came.

We return you now, to our regularly scheduled program, already in progress.

Mistique

Mystique watched Sabertooth pace back and forth for awhile and then, on a whim, she concentrated and her body begins to change. She grew burlier and bulkier and and hair began to poke out where there was none before. Eventually two Sabertooths stood in the offic instead of one.

Mystique/Sabertooth started pacing-mocking the other one until he growled at him/her and started glaring dagers. Laughing, she changed back and looked over at him.

"Oh settle down," She said in a mocking tone of voice,"Magneto has a plan. You can bet on it and, if we follow his plan, we might be able win for once. He got us this far didnt he?"

 

[nightray]

I look at mystique and say I know I just can't stand staying her why'll hes out ther. I creul my lip and flop duwn on a coch my clows diging in to the fabric as I think of whot I'm going to do to wolverin. I look over at mystique my eyes traviling up and down her body destrcting me from the thots of killing wolverin mominterily.

The Thing

Standing on my balcony, I admire my view of New York City from my pad in Four Freedoms Plaza. Smoking an oversized cigar, I am still amazed at all the activity in the city even after all these years here. Looking at the clock inside, I decide it is time to start getting ready. "Okay Benjy, time to get in the shower. You don't want Sue crawling your head about being late again." I think to myself.

I lather up and rinse off quickly, knowing there is little time to waste. Stepping out of the shower, I grab a towel and dry my rocky hide off. Sliding my pants uniform on(the Thing usually wears shorts), I decide to wear a sleevless shirt also.

As I rush to the control room, I turn the TV on and start surfing through the channels. Just as I find something that looks halfway interesting, I catch the press conference. When it is over, I call for Sue, "Hey Suzy, the Avengers are going to be on the job at the ceremony, why do we have to go? Aunt Petunia would really like to see her favorite nephew, it has been awhile."

Psylocke

Psylocke pushes away from the door and walks further into the room. "Other than being at the assembly and keeping a close eye on all of them, I'm not sure. With diplomatic immunity, the authorities' hands are tied." Psy shifts her glance to Rogue and a sly grin spreads across her lips. "But of course that doesn't necessarily affect us."

"I'm going to take a quick shower. I'll be back in a few." As she turns to head to the bathroom, the second newscast is broadcast. Besty turns to watch, the line of her brow furrowing into a frown as Captian America steps up to the podium. Shaking her head, she guffaws aloud. "Avengers indeed." She turns on her heel, muttering something incomprehensible under her breath and proceeds to the bathroom.

[nightray]

I look in to hes eyes and snaril I promes not to indajer your plans.

 

[Jerahmeel]

Sabertooth I am putting alot of my trust into you. If everthing works. We will need some kind of law.I plan on making you the head of my military.Where as we are a peacefull Nation we are not gonna let them walk over us. Plus there will be mutants like you that have personal vendettas. We will not have mutant fighting mutanton our land. That would only give them an excuse to attack us. So these are the thing you will try to prevent.But this means you most be strong and lead. Can you do this. This means no more attacking Wolrine ever.

 

[nightray]

I look at magnes in descust I will do my dest not to attack hem but if he maks the first mov I will rip hem apart. I grin evily at the thot of skining wolverin alive.

 

[Jerahmeel]

Good I knew i could count on you. Untill then i need to keep your eyes and ears opened. I would not be suprised if someone does somthing to ruin this. I don't mean the X-Men or the Avegers eithere. There are other that would love to see us fail. There are ones that would love to start a war. We can not allow them to do this. We can not allow them to destroy out dream.At any cost this is gonna work. We will have our own land.

 

[nightray]

I smile slitly and say at list therl be som fun in thes after all.

 

[Jerahmeel]

I want you to contact me before you make any actions.

Bishop

Bishop walked out of the bathroom, tripping over a boot. His towel dropped...right in front of Jean. "Umm... Ahh..." murmured Jean. "My bad, Jean," responded Bishop sheepishly. He went and turned on the tv, just missing President Bush's announcement.

 

[Isolde]

Mistique

Mystique look from one to another of the men before walking to Magneto's desk and sitting down on the edge of it. "It sounds...boring," She said as she picked up a letter opener and begin to fiddle with it. "This diplomatic stuff isnt us, Magneto. It's too upfront. There has to be another reason why you are doing this. You know no one is ever going to except us no matter who we are affiliated with."

 

[Isolde]

Rogue

Rogue watched the news broadcast and shook her head. "Do you know how many mutants there are that follow Magneto? Not to put down Cap but if Magneto has thought this thing through-and I will bet you he has-it is going to take more than the Avengers to stop them."

"Besides, I feel its time for this gal to get a better understanding of our government at work. I say we go there for our 'education' if nothin' else."

Gambit

Gambit walked down the hallways towards the suite that held the largest number of his fellow X-Men and wondered if Rogue was there. He had been away for a while in the Thieve's Guild and had decided to pay a visit as things were too quiet down there. As soon as he had come to New York he had heard about Genosha and wondered what had happened while he was away. He looked around, his usually card in his hand and walked towards the door, charged the card slightly and slid it into the reader. As soon as the door opened he smiled and walked in then looked around.

He walked over to the wall nearest the door but one where he could see everyone and looked at the television, a card rolling over between his fingers and a smile on his face.

"Well if that don't beat all. I am away for a while and all hell seems to break loose. Oh, by the way- hello all, did you miss the wandering swamp rat?"

 

[Isolde]

Rogue

Rogue looked up from the news broadcast as Gambit walked in. A smile of welcome broke over her face and she laughed at his all-to-familiar attitude.

"Hello, Darlin'. About time you drifted our way," She said as she watched him playing with a card,"We were just discussing the merits of going to the Assembly tomorrow. I think it would be...educational for us all. It wouldnt hurt to have more than the Avengers handy should all hell break loose either."

[Angelus]

Gambit

"That sounds like an awful amount of fun. I think that I will go to this assembly just to see what Magneto and his cronies are up to this time. But I have to tell you this, I am only here for a couple of days as I have to get back to the guild."

He walked over to the couch that sat in the middle of the room and sat down on it, his card rolling over his fingers again and again. He knew that this pleasant would be full of action which he wouldn't mind as he had been missing some.

 

[Imoen]

Psylocke

Psylocke turned the water of the shower on, adjusting the temperature til it was of a pleasant warmth. She peeled the swimming/exercise suit from her body and slipped under the warm spray of water. Bracing her hands upon the shower wall, she leaned her head foward letting the rivets of deliciously warm water soak her hair. Sighing in pure pleasure she turns and takes hold of the shampoo, squeezing the honey-amber liquid from the bottle and letting it pool into her palm. She lathers her hair, entwining her fingers through the wet tresses and massaging her scalp gently. She leans back into the spray, letting the water rinse the thick, creamy lather from her hair. Droplets cling to her wet spiky lashes as she blinks the water from her eyes. Reaching foward she grabs the soap from its resting place before running her soapy hands over her sleek, wet body. She lingers in the shower, comfortable - warm, the drone of the massaging spray against her back near numbing. Shaking her head slightly as thoughts of what tommorrow more than likely will hold bring her back to reality, she turns off the shower and steps carefully out onto the plush bathmat.

She turbans a towel around her head, confining the long dark purple locks within its secure grip. She dries herself vigorously with a thirsty towel and rummages through her bag for a fresh change of clothes. She slips into the simple, casually elegant black sleeveless dress. Toweling her hair until it is just merely damp, she combs it back and knots it loosely at the nape of her neck. Looking at her reflection in the mirror with an apprasing glance, she nods in approval.

She leaves the still steamy bath to return to the main room of the suite, depositing her bag on the bed as she passes. A shocked smile graces her face at first sight of Gambit.

"Remy! What a surprise. It's good to see you again." She saunters over to the sofa and sits next to Rogue, her eye drawn to the screen of the television. "Any other news concering the assembly meeting tommorrow? Is it decided, we are going?"

Wolverine

Sliding a note under Black Cat's door, I pull the collar on my leather coat a little higher as I turn to walk away.

(The note)
*Felicia,
Something big is going down, my gut feeling says it is going to happen at the welcome ceremony for Genosha into the UN tomorrow. Meet me at 'our' bar tonight.

Logan*

As I step out of the building, onto the sidewalk, I adjust my hat so it covers my face more.

Reaching the bar, I go up to the bar-tender. "Hey bub, I will have brewsky." I say to him as I light a cigar. "Start me a tab, I will be here awhile." I tell him as I go to a table in the back of the establishment.
