Rogue

Rogue rolled her eyes at all the antics taking place and ignored the psychic goose. Looking over at her fellow Xmen, she says,"Okay, lets get down to business. I am itching to get out of this room and into some action. It's been way too quiet and, knowing Magneto, that spells trouble with a capital T."

Realizing she was pacing, she stopped and looked around. "Somebody start this conversation so we can hurry and get out of here." Looking straight at Storm. "You said something about going somewhere?"

At the embassy

Cable, Psylocke, and Spiderman each notice the same figure ascend into the sky over the embassy: Magneto! Spiderman's spidersense kicked into overdrive, above and beyond the buzz coming from Elektra as she toyed with him, but the feeling faded as Magneto receded into the distance. From the direction of his travel, it seemed likely that the UN building was his destination. Dawn was already breaking over the city skyline, and Magneto was due to address the Council of Nations as the first event of the day, about an hour from now.

Iron Man's patrol path took him nearby, and his onboard radar had noted Magneto's flight path easily, as the magnetic disturbance was frightening in its controlled power, which made it easy enough to track.

Baxter Building
The Invisible Woman had gone to bed some time earlier, but the incredible stamina of the Thing and SheHulk made pulling all-night gossip sessions no big deal. The Human Torch had arrived at the Baxter building a couple of hours before dawn, made his greetings, and went to bed for a little rest. Everyone in the Baxter Building was awake now, enjoying a quick breakfast before the day begins.

X-Mansion
Siryn had explored the mansion a bit, and realized that she was alone. No message had been left that she could find, even using old computer codes that she had been given for just such an occasion. Worried, she began to work out how to make the communicator contact any of the X-Men.

Magneto
Magneto, lacking the sophisticated psionic skills of Professor Xavier, was forced to rely on mechanical means to contact his operatives. "Mystique. Please gather Sabretooth and the others. Meet the Toad at the embassy. I've decided that the presence of any of you would be unneccessarily provocative during my speech. Await further instructions, after my speech. Magneto out."

X-Men suite in hotel
Rogue noticed the dawn rising through the window behind Storm. Hopefully, everyone was fully rested, for the day had begun. Magneto would be addressing the Council of Nations in an hour, or so.


OOC:Hope this post doesn't come across as too heavy-handed, friends. I'm just trying to get everyone to a point where something interesting will occur. We've been working on this for quite some time now, and not one punch has been thrown! Eeep!

 

[Isolde]

Rogue

Rogue was shocked to find that they had pretty much whittled the night away. Looking out the window, she grinned a bit.

"Scratch that last question, everyone, I belive it is now time to go see what our illustrious new addition to the UN has to say for himself. You all with me?"

 

[Isolde]

Mystique

Mystique sighed and said into her communicator. "Right, but be careful. I overheard the Xmen talking about stirring things up. Of course I am sure that is no surprise to you."

Looking at Saber, she says,"Looks like I have a babysitting job on my hands. Keeping you away from Wolverine. Come on, I will try to get ahold of Electra."

Tuning her commincator to a frequency she hoped was Electra's she said,"Magneto is on his way to the UN and needs us to be at the embassy. Seems he doesnt want us mixing things up....yet. Meet you there."

Quicking her pace, she practically drags Saber along towards the embassy.

Wolverine

Straightening my clothes I look over at Rogue as she speeks.

"Yeah I am ready, As soon as Magneto's candy coated speach is over, I am dying to dive head first into some action." I say to Rogue.

"So what else is there to do to prepare?" I ask as I gaze towards Storm.

 

[Mackdaddy_74]

The Thing

"Hey Shulkie I know we could keep on talking, but I am starving. Let's go to the kitchen and get a bite to eat before we have to go and fall asleep listening to Magneto babble." I say to her as I grab her hand and lead her down the hall.

Sitting down, the robot servant comes up to me and asks what I would like. "You know the usual." I tell it, and smile at Jennifer. "Oh geeze, I might as well call for reinforcements." the droid says as he moves towards Jen. "You have to hand it to Stretch, he can create some interesting stuff, and program it even better." I say with a chuckle.

The droid lets out a mechanical sigh as it rolls over to Jen and asks for her order.

 

[nightray]

I smile slitly at the thout of mystique keeping me out of trubil if I rily whonted to git in to trupil. I pick up my pase as she try to drage me and soon I'm draging her. As I think of the posibility of wolverin bing ther and me mising hem. I look down at mystique and slow down when I relis that I wos forsing her to trot beside me. I say sory about that I just thot that wolverin mite be ther. I smile agen as a weryd look flickers over her face.

 

[LAVA GODDESSS]

Elektra, Storm.

Elektra

I grinned evilly as I heard his voice panic a bit.

"This mist isn't mine, thank nature for that."

I stepped behind him, blowing lightly on his ear. For some odd reason, toying with my prey...as if a spider...brought my immense pleasure.

I flipped over him to face him.

"I'm Elektra, Mr. Parker." My eyes flashed wildly.

"And your demise will be painless. I promise." I cooed.

"I figured since you are a reporter...you would have an inkling to who I am, And now that you have spotted me, I have to get rid of evidence."

(00c. I am confused someone said elektra is right next to the embassy...somone else said she was next to the building the X-men were in.)

I looked at him, my gaze incredibly seductive. My movements fluid. I took out my weapon. The three pronged miracle of man gleamed.

I heard my communicator, I had to go. "Mr. Parker, I could let you live a bit longer. Or, we get this done. NOW."

I went to my communicator. I wasn't a morning person and the damn sun was annoying me. "I will be there, a small detail to handle, meet me at the rendevous point, I will contact you once I am there."

I heard the familiar zing of metal upon leather. Someone else wants to tango. Then I heard them flee. I grinned.
"too bad they didn't stay, this could of been interesting."


Storm:


I hadn't even realized that the sun was performing a silhouette with my body.
I looked at Rogue, then at WOlverine. "We need to be there, if it gets out of hand. I really don't have a clue what to do with Magneto. Disguises will be needed if you are going to participate. Meet me back here in five minutes, changed. I want you to discuss among you who is going to wait outside the building, We need backup. "

We met in the room, everyone professional looking, "See, we are normal. Except...WOlvy.." I laughed...winking at him, just trying to lighten everyone up.

I had changed into a businesss suit, all white in color, talored to my height. My white boots clicked as I walked down the empty hallway. Then I heard all of the noise. It was definately the meeting room. Television reporters were all around, My eyes flashed white, that would not be good.

I had Wolverine and Rogue with me, the others were going to stage themselves around the building.

(sorry for that mixup guys, I tried to fix it, sorry these are so boring, I will get some sleep.)

[Isolde]

OOC: Lava, it is tomorrow morning and Magneto is at the UN for his speech.

 

[Imoen]

Psylocke

The sweet whisper of metal on metal as the katana slides from its sheath brings an almost predatory smile to Psylocke's face. Her violet eyes glimmer dangerously as she steps foward out of the deep shadows which as of so recently hid her form. Her fingers curl around the leather wrapped handle of the blade, firm and secure. Her knuckles near white in anticipation of the intricant dance of battle that will ensue. Her gaze is locked on her target, the woman in red, toying with the reporter. She had no love for journalists, but her distaste for rude and abusive taunting far outweighed her dislike for the news media in general. She will intervene.

At that precise moment, the voice intrudes yet again. Filling her mind, prickling incessantly at her memory. Another cry for help. More insistant this time. Her teeth gnash in frustration, her gaze drawn to the building beside her, the Embassy. She sheaths her blade as her glance flicks to Nathan, then back to the reporter and his nemesis.

"Trouble surrounds us, Nathan. I really shouldn't be surprised. The journalist is on his own, I'm going after who is inside. I will alert Rogue her assistance is necessary."

Her eyes glaze for a brief moment as she sents an urgent psi-message to Rogue, informing her of her and Cable's whereabouts and the reporter's need for assistance.

She turns quickly disappearing back into the shadows of the building. Slipping with ease up the side of the building using what miniscule cracks and crevices she can find.

A voice issues forth from the dark receses of the shadows which contain and hide her form.

"Coming, Nathan?"

 

[Isolde]

Rogue

Rogue's head comes up and a smile spreads across her face as she recieves Psylocke's message. "Now why in the world would the bad guys pick on a reporter? I know we mutants get bad press...but really," She says to herself.

Looking around, she shakes her head. Storm and Wolverine were busy and she wasnt going to disturb them but she wasnt going to ignore a distress call either.

Finding a side door, she slips out and takes to the skies. Her eyes sweep the shadows as she arrives where Psy had told her it was happening and she sees the man and woman, the woman getting ready to strike.

Putting on some speed, she reaches them and lands in front of the woman, putting herself between her and the reporter. Looking her straight in the eye (OOC: I am assuming Rogue does not know about Electra) she says,"Now, darlin', was his story all that bad that you cant just send in a letter to the editor? Or did he break a date with ya and you just cant handle rejection?"

[doctor_insanus]

Iron Man

"So, it's time."

Iron Man continued monitoring Magneto's progress as the mutant made his way to the UN. Hanging back, not wishing to draw attention from the Master of Magnetism, he sliced through the morning sky. Sunlight gleamed off his golden armor.

Activating his communicator, he spoke to Captain America. "Looks like Magneto is ready to charm us into submission. He should be there any minute now."

Performing one last diagnostic, Iron Man brought his defensive systems up to full power. He wasn't going to make the first move, but he was damn well ready to make the second.

Despite the possible danger, Tony Stark smiled at the rush of power as he prepared for battle.

 

[LAVA GODDESSS]

WHOOPS. I swear I read everything. Er...

(OOC. Reread my post, I fixed it.)

 

[Isolde]

OOC: Ok fixed my post now too.

 

[LAVA GODDESSS]

Elektra

I sneered as I saw this new mutant. I did a half-flip over towards the man. Gently kissing him on the cheek. Then I whispered in his ear, "Do you really need a woman to save you?" He was sort of cute, maybe a hostage would be nice.


I grinned evilly.

I turned towards the woman, my guard up against both.

My eyes gleamed. "I'm sorry you both must meet a demise."

I wasn't one to just run . I was the most powerful assasin in the world. Martial arts expert, none was above me, and expert in gymnastics, as well as in the wielding of any and all weapons.

My black hair whipped wildly around me. "Let me introduce myself, I'm Elektra."

I twirled my sais (the three pronged daggers) and I reached around to feel for my katana. Throwing my sais in the air, high high in the air, I took out my whip. Quickly wrapping it around the man's chest, his arms tucked, I grinned and held the woman's gaze as I yanked and the man fell to the floor. I held it steady, the sais came tumbling down, I caught them with a fluid movement.

I used my communicator, I didn't need help, but I had to get the man out of here. He had something odd about him, I could sense it, He was a reporter, so maybe he would be usefull.

"Alley, where I was last. Small vermon to kill. Need assistance, no hurry." I said into the communicator, I looked back at the man. I grinned. So nice to see a man tied up.

Hurtling my body around, like a snake who whips his head towards his prey. I flip and land my feet directly in the middle of her chest. I took taht as a cue to leave. Yanking on the rope, I got the man to stand up, whispering in his ear, "Run, or you die now."

 

[Isolde]

Rogue

Rogue watched the woman, her mouth turned up into a grin. She was good and, with another mutant, maybe deadly but she was confident in her abilities...abilities she had gained from contact with another in her past.

The trick with the whip startled her enough to let her get ahold of the man but the kick simply pissed her off! "And my name is Rogue," She said bitingly to the woman,"Cant say it's a pleasure except that I have been itching for some action, darlin', and it looks like your it!"

Recovering from the kick quickly, she saw that the woman intended to run. "Uh, uh, uh," She said before flying forward and stiff arming Electra in the chest. The power behind the hit wasnt even a part of what she could deliver. She was playing with Miss Marvel's powers, after all. She deliberately pulled the punch so as not to kill her but it did manage to toss her enemy into the wall of the alley.

Rogue suspected that if she had not been so tied up with the reporter she would have avoided at least that one hit but he was slowing her down.

Reaching down, she snapped the whip from around him, setting him free. Stepping up to Electra, she said to him over her shoulder. "Run while you can...I will take care of this 'small matter'."

Looking at Electra, her eyes snapped with anger. "You may find this 'vermin' much harder to kill than you thought. Whenever your ready to proceed..."

[Isolde]

Mystique

Mystique recieved the communique and turned to run quickly back the way she had come. Arriving in the alley just in time to see Rogue standing over Electra and a man on the alley floor.

She skidded to a stop and stood there smiling and almost parental smile of pride as she looked on the scene. "Well, seems someone bit off more than they could chew," She said to Electra,"I wouldnt recommend getting her mad. I have seen her mad and it isnt a pretty sight."

Rogue's head turned her way and Mystique turned the smile on her. Holding up her hands, she said,"I am not about to get into this fight. I know that my diplomatic immunity is gone once I start anything and I am not stupid. You above anyone else should know that, Rogue."

Then to Electra,"Sorry, but I am not about to get Magneto mad...or Rogue for that matter. If you wanted someone to help you kill this particular mutant, you picked the wrong person to call."

[Mackdaddy_74]

Wolverine

"Grrr, Storm why do I have to wear this suit?" I asks her with a sly grin. "Come on let me cut the sleeves and take the tie off." I finish and pop my claws in and out several times while still smiling.

Looking at the clock, I notice the time, "Okay, let's get the show on the road." I state, as I straighten my tie.

 

[Phoenix]

Prodigy

As I adjust my suit in front of the mirror, I silently smiled to myself at the fuss the Cannuck was making about wearing these damn tuxs. I adjust my tie and look in the mirror. Hmm not bad at all. Almost as good at Kat Pryde. I almost blushed when I thought about here. It seems that lil Kitty has gone and stolen my attention, I mean how am I suppossed to be all serious and superherolike with a woman like Kat Pryde around. By the way the name Kitty does her no justice. I mean Kitty is what you call a five year old girl or pussy. I mean damn, oh well time to finish getting ready.

Waitaminute I just had an idea if Magneto and Xavier ever got together and did a sitcom it would be called "The Baldy and Buckethead" Show. Hahah ah I am feeling much better now. I take a seat on the couch and wait for the others to finish getting dressed. Gee it is a good thing there aren't any telepaths here to pick up on what I was just thinking

 

[cheekyminx]

Shadow Cat

Cat had followed Rogue and watched in the shadows. Seeing another come to Electra's aid, she came closer.
Hearing Mystique tell Electra "Sorry, but I am not about to get Magneto mad...or Rogue for that matter. If you wanted someone to help you kill this particular mutant, you picked the wrong person to call."
I walked out of the shadows, standing a little off to the side of Rogue, and behind Mystique, I decided it was time to let them know I was here. "Which is definately a good call on your part Mystique." Looking at all of them. Smiling at Rogue. Then looking at Electra, "I dont think we have had the pleasure!"

 

[nightray]

[Neale]

Psylocke/Cable

Psylocke turns to Cable, just in time to see him vanish into thin air. At the same moment, she 'hears' the mental cry for help, more desperate, even tortured, than ever before. Her way into the embassy seems clear...

Cable: Cable feels the familiar tug of time travel. He has once again been torn out of time, his destination unknown...


ooc: Democable, we really needed the rescue to occur, and you weren't around. So, I've just kidnapped your character until you return. When you are ready to post, just pop back in wherever. Thanks!

Wolverine

(OOC: Hate to do this, but I am ready to see some action. )

IC: Looking in the mirror one last time, I run my fingers through my dark hair. "Okay Storm let's go the sooner we get this over with the sooner I can get this penguin suit off." I tell her as I walk over to her.

Sliding my arm underneath hers, I lead her out of the room. "Now everyone knows what to do, do it and play nice." I tell them, the last part directed at Prodigy. "We have our communicators if you need us, don't wait up on our account though." I wink at Storm as everyone laughs and the door shuts behind us.

The Limo is waiting when we emerge from the hotel, we get in and try to enjoy the long ride to the UN building.

Reaching the building, Rogue wasn't around so Storm and I continue on in. "Don't worry Storm, Rogue can take care of herself. We have a few minutes to spare I will call her before it is time to listen to Magneto spurt off at the mouth." I say to her with a smile.

Looking around as I take my seat, I am amazed at the amount of heroes already assembled, and more arriving every minute.

(OOC: I changed the last part of the post to allow Rogue and Spiderman more freedom.)

[poohlive]

Peter ran for all his life. Not because he was scared, but because he had wanted to get into Spiderman. Never before had he such an anchoring to become Spiderman, especially since after the night he had. One quick switch on a high wall, and he was ready.
Spiderman webbed back to the spot where Rogue and the other woman, he wasn't quite sure her name, although he would soon, were still at.
Spiderman clung to the wall and watched them fight for a minute.
"It takes two to tango, but with three we can really heat things up."
He quickly flipped around and landed between them. Fire danced in his eyes, never before had he wanted to fight so much.
"Come on my pretty, wanna dance?"
With Rogue by his side, he was certain of their victory, but they had to hurry. Magneto would start within the hour. If Peter missed this, he would never forgive Spiderman.

 

[Democable]

Cable

I felt the flimar tug of tme travel comming on. "On shit" I thought to myself. I landed witha sick thoud on the ground. I stood up and looked around.

"Great, I'm in Hell," I screamed as loud as i could.

I constrited on the monment and sliped back in to Slip Stream (OOC: That' what i call time travel) and landed back at the embesy.

I looked around. I saw no one. "Psy, must be inside already"

I moved inside quickly.

OOC: Sorry ya'll, RL keep me busy for a while.
