[ Silver Swan launched herself at the WILDpack, those that werent taken down by Black Widow or Firebird met with powerfull attack from the mutate as she used her amazon training for hand to hand combat to take down the solders...while breaking necks, smashing heads and otherwise destroying these "men" with her physical strength. she capped it off by SPINNING through the army and unleashing her spinning stars against which the WILDpack were HELPLESS. she intended to spin RIGHT for Enchantra and cut her to pieces...but something else was happening that caught the mutates attention. with her perfect hearing, she HEARD Malice taunting Firebird, MANIPULATING her into attacking Black Widow.]

[ at that moment, an ear piercing SCREAM feels the air, if only for a moment! ]

Firebird! STOP! Don't LISTEN TO HER!

[ Sharon rushes forward, zooming past Black Widow and Enchantra faster than they can react. flying at high speeds as her silver, adamantium armour gleams. Sharon was TRYING to snap Blaze out of it, but this wasnt a PSYCHIC attack...it was EMPATHIC. Blaze may have HEARD the painfull scream, but her HEART would not be dissuaded. and so...]

MALICE! You murdering COW! You want to use Blaze, the way you used my son....I've got a SCORE to settle with YOU! You thought you could hurt me with images of my husband...my son...you took them from me all those years ago....

[ and with that, Silver Swan CHARGES into Malice, tackling her in midflight and carrying her away from Blaze and Haleigh, abruptly changing course and charging into the air.]

your telepathic attacks wont work on ME! mystech has given me a gift...one that I can now use to destroy YOU!

[ she holds Malice by her neck, and pulls back her other hand, intending to PUNCH her with such force that it not only seperates her head from her body..but it would PULP her skull and brain completely. Silver Swan was physically the second strongest among the four members of the six present and she was TIED with Malice in terms of physical strength with Malice was in her diamond form. Silver Swan also had speed, durability/invulnerability, stamina and phenomenal fighting ability.]

OOOOOKAY.

Nicolas was now giving this queen his full attention as she extricated herself from the stony trap. He was hammered with a blur of memories, as she had done before. How did she know him? It seemed so familiar, but the point-of-view was all wrong, the timing of it. THIS time, he captured them to be replayed and scanned, analyzed, and examined in exhaustive detail. LATER. Right now, he felt a searing burn on his chest as a RUNE displayed itself, burning into the flesh. He clawe at it as the Black Queen advanced, a searing whilwind of silicon. Luckily for him, she would find doing REAL damage more difficult than she apparently believed, but her determined attack quickly began to finally bear fruit as she entered his nose and ears, surprising him AGAIN and drawing blood. Nicolas roared in pain as she tore at him, slowly but surely doing damage to him.

Nicolas teleported away, but she clung to him even as he moved, so he did what he had almost never done in front of the Six. He went INTANGIBLE, the silicon attack slipping past him like a fluffy cloud as he teleported again to recover more fully.

He then squeezed his hand as a sealed force surrounded the swirling mass of silicon, squeezing it under tens of tons of pressure and massive heat from friction. He was wondering if he could make glass with her...as he held up his hand, his axe returning to its owner.

Haleigh coughed violently, attempting to spit out the ants as she was DOUSED with sulfuric acid. The bad news was it burned so badly that it ate through her SKIN... the good news was that it got in her mouth, killing the ants quickly. She stopped coughing, seemingly stopped feeling pain [as she was completely capable of silencing her pain-sensing nerves] and was animatedly swishing the acid around in her mouth like mouthwash, which she spit off to the side.

"Ah, minty clean."

She deadpanned, smiling big. It was clear she'd given herself a new silver tongue and the inside of her mouth [and her teeth] were coated in protective metal.... a sign of things to come. Haleigh set off the fire sprinklers..... sulfuric acid was soluble in water, though the water caused it to BOIL and steam, which obscured Haleigh from view momentarily.

When the mist faded, Haleigh was gone. Destroyed? Hardly. She reappeared RIGHT in front of Enchantrah, grabbing her quickly by her jaw, CRUSHING it in her grip as she LIFTED the woman off her feet. She now had metallic skin, looking like a female Silver Surfer [with metallic-stranded hair to boot]. She stared up at Enchantrah with narrowed, sentinel-red eyes as she continued to crumble the lower half of Enchantrah's SKULL just by squeezing in her machine-like grip.

"You know what you remind me of, Helena? Back in high school, those super popular pretty girls who all run around together like some kind of pack... there's always one at the TOP of the food chain. That'd be Malice. YOU are more like one of those other ones. less powerful, less beautiful, always following the Queen around like a good bitch. Always telling the QUEEN 'no, you're not fat, you're SO awesome, the sun shines out of your ass!' I always laughed at girls like that..... so pityful."
 
Minerva's mansion

<< as Morgan bid Ava farewell for the time being, the sorceress quietly exhaled.>>

well...one problem solved, another one getting worse.

<< she turned to set her brush down before preparing to go to her scrying glass. but as she looked at the vanity for only a moment, she saw a message coming across ON the mirror...>>

what is this?

<< she looked intently.>>

Rampage said:
Morgan Nicolas. Cast wards protect Ava, Alison OTHERS. Malice...Enchantrah have targeted them as well.
Click to expand...

<< it was NICOLAS, communicating with her as best he could since her psi screen blocked direct telepathic contact from anyone except her mother and sister. and it wasnt a good message either.>>

oh no!

<< she quickly teleport via stepping disc to the CONTROL ROOM of Minerva's Mansion to speak to the captain of the guard. in order to protect everyone, she would be more efficient having them all in one place.>>

We have what could be an emergency, please get the mansion on yellow alert and begin the process of raising all defenses. have the animal care takers round up all of the pets and place them in their holding areas. I'll gather the others and after that, Anyone who tries to access the mansion must submit to a DNA scan, per MY order as I am acting in Alison's place for the time being. Don't discuss this with ANYONE either. If someone asks, refer them to me.

<< Morgan then manifests in front of Ava, Alison, Karen and Mike. Taking care NOT to say the wrong thing in front of Ava and Alison...>>

My apologies, but I need you to return to Minerva's Mansion at once. I'll see you when you get here.

<< she left it at that...the tone of her voice suggested there was no room for argument. once everyone was here and the mansion was secure, she'd meet with Mike and her mother privately about the situation.>>
 
Private Lagoon

Mike had quickly made his way to the private lagoon that Karen had disappeared to. Entering the opening, he saw the beautiful witch in the water up to her neck, obviously no longer clothed. He entered the water after quickly stripping, making his way to his lover and enveloping her in his arms as he did so, kissing her deeply. He spoke to her in a deep, lustful voice.

Good Doctor, it has been a while since I've had my...<kisses Karen again on her neck and now her chest, dipping slightly into the clear water to do so>> ..mmhhm, medicine.

Mike was about to take MUCH more than his daily dose of Karen right there in the water, lifting her up as she wrapped her legs around his waist, when Morgan appeared before them calling them back to Minerva's mansion and promptly giving him a HEART ATTACK.:blush:

Luckily they were covered by the water so MAYBE she saw nothing but most likely, Morgan saw a nude Mike getting ready to make love to her nude mother in a private lagoon. Mike reluctantly and slowly let go of the sorceress.

DAMN. That looked serious. THIS...is not over Karen. In fact, I have done some of my homework, and I have other ideas...LATER I guess.

Mike reluctantly began to lead Karen out of the water, hoping that he could calm himself before his obvious state of arousal made for a very INTERESTING meeting with the others.

Minerva's Mansion- getting down to business.

<< thankfully for Mike, Morgan's manifestation was "standard issue" and as such, SHE personally wasnt talking to him. She did not see what he was doing...or about to do with her mother. The communication he saw was the same one that Ava, Alison and Pandora would see.>>

<< and as everyone made their way back inside the mansion, after being scanned in case one of them was Enchantra, the perimeter of the mansion was sealed off, all doors and windows were shut and the underground, hightech catacombs were were on lockdown.>>

<< Once Ava and Alison were settled, Morgan greeted them for a moment and then went to a large, empty conference room, where she had summoned her scrying glass. Once she was inside and the doors were closed, she extended her hands and spun around, a swirling trail of magick flowed around her as she changed into her current costume, the one given her by Hecate.>>

<< Mike and Karen would be informed by the guard that Morgan was waiting for them in the conference room and once they saw her in costume,theyd' know she meant business.>>
 
Mike dressed along with Karen quickly, wistfully looking at what he was about to enjoy be covered up. He shook his head and kissed Karen quickly before having her teleport them to his camp, where he picked up a medium-sized briefcase, then went back to Minerva's island.

The guards were nearly oppressive in their scans, apparently under the highest alert. After being satisfied with their identities, they were directed to the conference room where they saw Morgan in her battle attire. That confirmed for Mike that he was right to bring his gear, which he changed into in seconds in an adjoining room before taking his seat. He silently waited for Morgan to begin...

[ the brute was as durable as ever. even as a baby he had been impervious to the harm of her blessed dagger. to HER it was further proof that he was nothing more than the spawn of true evil.]

[ but she HAD hurt him, that alone was worth abding his wretched presence. it would not be the last pain she dealt him either. as he attempted to exert force and fricition upon her in her explosive dust cloud form, the RUNE on his chest begin to glow again, this time WHITE as Nicolas felt his body growing weak and cold, his heart and lungs FAILING and his energy...his very LIFE was leaving his body. Isis was the goddess of rebirth but like her brothers, she had the power to take away life as well...and Dominique, who now channeled various aspects and powers of Isis could do the same thing.]

[ as the mutant would find his body falling apart before his eyes. Dominique herself shunts down into the floor, UNDER the surface, spreading herself out and away from Nicolas' force before coming back together BEHIND him as she grabs his neck.]

Just as I have taken down your company, I will take down your LIFE as well! I will FORCE you to feel the way others felt the day YOU were born! your life...at the expense of THEIR'S!

[ she AMPLIFIES the life force drain , taking his vitality. Some of it she uses to replenish herself, the rest simply is taken from him, leaving him weaker, more frail by the moment.]

Hellfire Mansion

Everything seemed to happen like lightning, moving in the blink of an eye even as Isis would attack Rampage, Enchantra attacked Black Widow, and Malice would invade Firebird’s mind. Causing the fire elemental to lose focus on her goal along with her focus to channel her fire power. Her flames would extinguish as she moved to stand on the floor of the mansion. Blinking her eyes she could feel her senses being tampered with as she grit her teeth, trying to focus. “No!” She exclaimed getting annoyed by Malice’s alternate attack. As the truth was unveiled to her other teammates, Blaze fought the urge to give in. She may have lost her focus but the fire elemental was not to be underestimated for she was stubborn, pig headed, and willful. Something Malice could never take away no matter what she did.

“I care but my teammates are more than capable of handling themselves without any trouble. It is that fact that I felt COMFORTABLE leaving them behind. They may be few but they FIGHT of the strength of an Army.!” Blaze’s words were firm as she addressed the White Queen, countering her callous remarks. Attempting to make Firebird feel remorse or even guilt. Yet, it was a decision Blaze felt comfortable with. As such, this dread she felt would lesson. “You’re WRONG, Malice!”

Shaking her head with a growl, Firebird’s eyes would glow a dark crimson. “I TRUST Haleigh, you old crown! I don’t have to explain my actions to the likes of YOU whose only primarily joy is invading a person’s thoughts and exposing them for what they are! I may not know this Haleigh well and I may not always agree with her but I trust her!” Both fists would clench tightly as that familiar cloud of guilt returned but Firebird fought bravely to counter it with her own stubborness.



As the images of Spellbinder mirrored through her eyes, Firebird had difficulty fighting the urge. Her powers and her own nature were led by her raw emotional core and what life brought to her. Grinding down on her teeth, Firebird’s body would engulf with scorching hot flames but would flicker off, like an on and off switch. “Haleigh....is....not to...be...tru...NO!!” Shaking her head, Firebird stepped back to grab her head and a chunk of her brunette locks. “Get OUT of my head!” Yet, Blaze would continue to drown in the empathy that Malice projected as her eyes would fill with tears but she’d blink them back. It was a devastating struggle for Blaze who wouldn’t allow herself to be seduced by such emotions. “HALEIGH was there for Morgan....she attempted to SAVE her...nearly pulling her with her!” She affirmed hotly as her eyes would turn to Malice with a glare.

Having to witness the images of Morgan’s death only fueled Firebird’s more but it would twist and only cause her emotions to turn on Malice. Blaze fought desperately the emotions of mistrust, anger, and hatred for Haleigh. A woman she respected and admired even if she disagreed with her methods of ‘shoot and ask questions later’.

The shrill cry of a Silver Swan would jerk Firebird’s senses to try and control the manipulation but it would only cause a temporary interruption. As the seconds ticked by, Blaze questioned herself and her decisions she had made over the past couple of months. Weighing them in her head only losing her focus. Snarling under her breath, she turned her glare towards Black Widow who was battling Enchantra.

Without thinking, Firebird lunged into the air with the speed of a rocket now under the control of Malice. She moved with the speed of a rocket as she would viciously slam into Haleigh’s metallic form to knock her off Enchantra. The two would tumble to the floor as Blaze would jump to her feet. Having Haleigh in her metallic form would be dangerous as Blaze raised her hands to manipulate a fire grid (think Resident Evil) as it would criss-cross across her teammate in thin layers, burning into her metallic skin at extreme temperatures. Especially when she could melt anything especially metals to slag. “You NEVER care! You only PUSH people away because your not CAPABLE of loving anyone. You PUSHED me away every chance you got. You’re nothing but a MACHINE!” Firebird spat, clearly she was talking about the Haleigh from her world. But there was obviously resentment there that Blaze had concealed.

Losing her focus, Firebird’s power would extinguish once again as she shut her eyes. Silver Swan’s timely interruption was a success as Blaze was still reeling from the negative emotions she felt. Biting down on her bottom lip as she looked around bewildered at what she had done. “Haleigh...” She called out having a blank memory of the past five minutes. Peering around to see the others engaged in battle. The tremendous weight of her emotions felt like she had been hit by a tractor trailer.

:: Malice was truly caught off guard by Silver Swan's tackle. it HURT! the white queen was then carried off and rocketed into the air by the mutate. Usually Malice's telepathy allowed her to anticipate the moves of her foe even if it was just a split second before, but in this instance, there had been no time.::

....well..YOU'VE come a long way....:: coughing: havent you?

:: Silver Swan declared that she would use her newfound power to DESTROY Malice.::

I think NOT!

:: as the fist came SMASHING into her, Malice transformed into her DIAMOND form and manifested her DEFLECTION FIELD.::

As i told Alison once before when SHE tried to unleash her wrath upon me! I will see you do your worst...and RETURN IT TO YOU!

:: her Diamond form would prvent her head from being pulped and the deflection field took ALL of the force of Silver Swan's blow and sent it BACK to the mutate. But Malice didnt plan this out too carefully, she was too busy trying to save her own life, though she didnt let the SURVIVAL instinct show. the backlash TORE Sharon away from Diana and both women went FLYING...with Sharon slamming into ...THROUGH a marble pillar and Malice flying back down, crashing into the floor!::

:: With Firebird still suffering from Malice's last attack, this left Black Widow to deal with TWO opponents. Malice was now laying near Isis and Rampage. Isis clearly had the drop on the young mutant::

well THAT wasnt what i wanted.

:: referring to that shocking backlash that sent her down to the ground.::

but if we're going to keep the pressure on, we've got to be able to move from one to another with no trouble...with Firebird unwittingly HELPING Enchantra against Black Widow and before Sharon comes back, I've got a clear shot at Rampage!

:: still a bit slow to move after crashing to the ground, Malice ATTACKS Rampage with a PSYCHO BLAST. it would utterly DESTROY an unprotected mind, but in his case, it would most likely provide him with a splitting headache, adding to the pain and PANIC he might be feeling as Isis was robbing him of his lifeforce! In HIS case, the more that was done to KEEP him from thinking, from focusing...the LESS likely he could defend!::

Firebird BLINDSIDED Black Widow, sending both her AND Enchantrah [on whom Hlaeigh still had a tight grip] toppling to the floor. Firebird sprang up quickly..... Haleigh, still a bit bowled over, hadn't seen just WHO had attacked her, but assuming it was the enemy, she QUICKLY snatched Enchantrah by the hair, wrapping her free arm around her into a chokehold and using the woman as a BODY shield as she got back to her feet.

"SonofaBITCH!"

It was THEN that Haleigh saw it had been Firebird... the elemental was screaming at her, accusing her of being a cold, unfeeling machine without the capacity for love. Haleigh was both stunned AND offended, and it only served to affirm that she'd been right to keep Blaze at arm's length.

"Blaze, now REALLY isn't the time to discuss this! [tightening her grip on Enchantrah, growling in her ear] Enchantrah, you know how to make this go away, don't you? [backing away, dragging Enchantrah with her] Get RID of it."

The grid disappeared. Haleigh kept a hold on Enchantrah as Blaze seemed to snap out of a daze. Haleigh narrowed her eyes.... was it something Malice did, or was Blaze just trying to FAKE it so she could get away with attacking her?
 
in Minerva's Mansion

<< Spellbinder waited until Arsenal and Karen were inside and the doors were closed.>>

<< standing in her costume, with its "web" like designed mini cape, the sorceress folded her arms as she stood by her scrying glass.>>

I just received contact from Firebird, the alternate of my sister, Blaze.

<< she looks at Mike.>>

She tells me that Black Widow, Rampage, herself and SILVER SWAN are in NYC, at a newly reconstituted Hellfire Club...that MALICE and ENCHANTRA are ALIVE! There's a new Black Queen as well...and at this very moment...they are TRAPPED in the mansion.

There's apparently ALOT that has happened in these last few days that no one has felt it necessary to tell me about.

<< she came close to Mike. She knew how close he and Nicolas were>>

Did you know anything about this? Did you know that Malice and Enchantra were some how...ALIVE?

<< she didnt MEAN to seem accusatory but she was more upset than she realized...MALICE...the last time MORGAN saw her, was when Malice met the Soul Sword up close and personal in LIMBO. Enchantra, ALEXIS had taken care of her evil aunt over a YEAR ago!>>

Does this have something to do with the murder of Magnuss?

And was ANYONE going to tell me that SHARON was back?

<< she walked away from them. RESISTING the urge to chide her mother for letting Mike distract her from other , perhaps MORE important things. It wasnt Morgan's place, and she couldnt blame them for this.>>

Blaze sounded upset...and she should be. Malice is one of our deadliest foes, Enchantra is no slouch either and until now, I...WE had no idea that the Hellfire Club was even BACK...and apparently INDEPENDANT of Mystech.

<< pacing a bit.>>

Nicolas sent me a message too, telling me that Enchantra was targeting Ava ...even while she was HERE. That means that Malice either plucked the information from Blaze's mind OR Ava's...and now we're no longer completely safe.

There's no telling what is happening now. They've been gone for hours and if its morning here, its MIDNIGHT there.

I told Blaze I would find them with my scrying glass, and if need be, I'd go there myself to help or rescue them. I lost my sister once...I wont have it happen again. Haleigh and Nicolas...powerfull as they are, are STILL in danger when Malice is near...we ALL are.

But i don't want Ava and Alison to be informed. Alison will soon find out ANYWAY being that she's a precog, but I dont want her feeling like she has to get involved. She and Ava are still in recovery.
 
conference room

As the meeting began, Morgan went on a mini-tirade, sending out new information right and left.

Malice was alive and HERE with the new Enchantrah!!

Sharon has returned to the team!!

They were trapped in a mansion in New York?!!

Morgan was upset, the emotion simmering below the surface as she even appraoched close to Mike to ask him if he knew of this, in a manner that if it were anyone else, he would have seen as a threat. But Mike knew Morgan was upset, worried about her sister and the rest off the team. He wondered if she weren't getting TOO upset. The last time, it took months to put things back. And the line that she were somehow being kept in the dark was unfair, given that the team was trying to let Morgan and Karen care for Ava and Alison and not worry them.

As she finished what she had to say, Mike stood slowly. He was determined to stay calm through this. But Morgan needed to get some things STRAIGHT.

Morgan. No one is keeping anything from you, least of all Nicolas. If anything, maybe he is TOO honest and real with you. Some of these things seem related to our time in the timestream, which you have still not received a full debriefing about due to the pressing nature of Ava and Alison's injuries.
Mike began to pace a bit as he spoke, not looking at Morgan, not sure how she would respond.

We found this time's Malice in the last timeline we were in, of course. Apparently she managed to make her way here, just as Blaze did. This has to be a VERY recent development, although Nicolas has long posited that dimensional travel was possible for those able to move their consciousness in the astral plane. With the bloodthirsty nature of what has happened with the company, Malice had to be considered as a remote possibility. But he dismissed the attack as too heavy-handed, even for Malice.

But Sharon's arrival MUST have coincided with this trip, as well as Malice's emergence at the party itself. It makes sense if she is back here to make an appearance. But NO ONE is keeping things from you. I was aware of what had been going on as of yesterday and I KNOW that none of these developments had yet occurred. If you wish to go to help them, I am there with you. But to go with this type of needless distrust and worry will only give Malice an opening to you and with your power, you may as well give her a NUKE.
 
Minerva's Mansion

<< moving back to the scrying glass, Morgan wrapped her arms around her waist as Mike slowly stood up. She looked at her mother who was eyeing her very sternly.>>

Mother! WHERE were you anyway? ON AERIE?

Karen: << to her daughter via their bond as mother and child>>

Yes, I was on Aerie, WITH MIKE..and never you mind, young lady. You may be the leader of this team, but i am STILL your mother. and i am grown woman. I need not give an accounting of my actions to you or anyone else!

<< Morgan turned away. Firmly reprimanded by her mother without Mike even knowing. Morgan had never objected to Mike being with her mother BEFORE. But for some reason...she just felt like...like her mother had ABANDONNED her to go Aerie with Mike.>>

I'm sorry, mother. It's just...after all we've been through with Alison and Ava...I dont think I would have made it without you. And now...with all that i'm JUST learning...the way Firebird sounded...the fact that MALICE is back and alligned with two deadly foes...i feel like we're going BACK instead of forward.


Karen: Honey...i KNOW that you still have secret reservations about Mike and I. You've been VERY gracious about it. I sometimes wonder about Nicolas and you as well. You want to belive that its going to work out..and it HAS. Mike is making me VERY happy. I have no reason to suspect or believe that he would harm me anyway...and think about it...COULD HE really? Unless he surprised me, I am MORE than capable of protecting myself. I've told you before, I've been protecting myself and fighting off threats and creatures since before YOU were even born. Before we are someone else's girlfriend...we are women, we are mother and daughter and we will ALWAYS back each other.

and as for what's going on now. Progress HAS been made...Alison and Ava are in FAR better shape because of BOTH of us. You did just as much as i did...i Know you're upset. But please, remember that this is your FAMILY.

<< Morgan's mother spoke to her via their bond as mother and child while Mike spoke aloud. Mike was a man with experience...he probably didnt take kindly to her getting in his face as though she were interrogating him. He corrected her to the point but without being antagonistic. He was right, no one was hiding anything from her on purpose. Everyone realized that she needed time to care for Ava and Alison and they didnt want to burden her. He also reminded her of the damage she could cause if she became TOO "beside herself"...it was a humbling observation to hear coming from him, even in his short time this close to the team, HE recognized the need for her to keep control of herself. >>

I'm sorry Mike. I didnt mean to get in your face that way. It's just that when I heard Blaze...i knew she was genuinely worried. This alternate...she's different than our timeline's Blaze, but in that moment, they seemed EXACTLY the same...and knowing that the others are there, in that place...with MALICE, ENCHANTRA and this NEW Black Queen...come to think of it...there was NO Black Queen before...not that i remember.

<< Mike went on to explain about certain events of the timestream adventure. Malice's consciousness transferred into one of HER alternate's bodies, and she essentially resurrected herself and came BACK here, just as Firebird had managed to come to this timeline.>>

Enchantra must be an alternate as well. Alexis killed the original Helena over a year ago.

<< As Mike shared wth her the fact that Malice had been initially suspected of the murder of Magnuss, she understood now at least in part why they had found their way to NYC and the Hellfire Club. Morgan slowly exhaled. Shaking her head to the negative as Mike offered to join her. >>

You can't come, Mike. It's too dangerous. Malice could seize your mind and do any number of things to you. Plus, this new Black Queen...I dont know who she is or what her powers are. It's too risky. I need you and my mother to stay here...you're going to have to defend this place if something DOES happen. the soldiers are ready, but we know that something could quickly overwhelm them.

I'm going to locate them, and then I'm going to teleport there myself. and if necessary, pull them out with a stepping disc. Haleigh will be upset for me FORCING her to withdraw but TOUGH. She didnt bother to brief me, and i'm not going to bother consult HER on saving her or the rest of their lives.

<< Mike reminded her that Malice could get to her as well, she was an EMPATH as well.>>

and that is why...I need to get them OUT of there so we can regroup together. Going back to the states, after all this time was a risk itself. Haleigh HAD to have found information that suggested it was safe for them to even risk being seen by anyone in NYC. I'm not arrogant enough to think that I am totally insulated from Malice...but if i can get them out, then I must..before something happens to anyone of them.
 
In true Haleigh fashion, the hyrbid reminded everyone that she had about as much class as an inbred hilbilly. It was disgusting really, probably enough to turn any normal person's stomach....but in the case of Enchantra, it only prooved how vile and worthless this mechanical piece of slab was. Helena stayed put as Haleigh ducked out of sight using the sulfuric acid and sprinkler system to aid her. Seconds later the metamorph was grabbed by the jaw, her bones crushing in a gross display of Haleigh's strength. Her body lifted into the air as Haleigh extended her arm, but Helena did not flinch. However as Malice unleashed her empathic attack against Firebird, the mutant turned on Haleigh, slamming full force into her teammate causing Helena to get knocked to the ground as well. Grunting as she rolled, even THEN, Black Widow kept a vice like grip on her jaw as if her life depended on it. The pain was enough to cause the metamorph's eyes go bloodshot and water up...it was then her body EXPLODED into a fury of buzzing flies, flying in a unified patter away from the fueding teammates.

As Firebird took on Haleigh's metallic form, the swarm of flies came together as one, revealing Helena once again. Opening her mouth and cracking the bone, the joints were sore, but the jaw was now back in tact.

"Disgusting creature....what's truly pathetic is your attempts to bait me with your ridiculous notions and logic. How hypotricial you have become. The only lap dog in this room is YOU, sweetheat. Remind me to tell Spellbinder to keep you on a shorter leash next time!"

As Firebird continued her attack on Haleigh, Helena gestured out with her hand and began to warp the illusion around both Firebird and Black Widow, masking their location from Nicolas and Sharon to prevent them from helping their teammates. Haleigh and Blaze would find themselves in Arklay still, but they would find themselves ALONE in the large combat dome that Kyle Kelly was finally killed at. With Malice's manipulations of Firebird, the two teammates could destory each other without the interference of others.

LOL @ "she had about as much class as an inbred hillbilly" :haha: Enchantra is scathing..and no matter what you say or do to her, she STILL finds time to be insulting!
My life?!! For WHO?!!Who the hell ARE you?!!

Nicolas groaned as the pain in his chest intensified. He cut his pain receptors but he realized that part of what was happening NOW was that his cells were SCREAMING as their life was being drained form them, like a short can drain a a battery. He was already staggered when Malice added to it by blastin him mentally. TWO ON ONE. Even he knew that he could not keep this u sfor long if he didn't do SOMETHING. Then he realized. Isis was within REACH, even touching his neck. He was weakened but, the witch would find, not weak ENOUGH.

With a snap Nicolas broke Isis' arm and wrist in one desperate move, then accelerated the air around her and Malice in order to produce a white noise effect--in actuality a bombardment of shock waves of all frequecies, shaken and directed literally by his own TK. He then pushed them both away as he staggered to clear his head, crazed with painas he teleported near Enchantrah who was busy with Haleigh and Blaze, who hopefully had a chance to snap out of it thanks to his attack. He punched Helena in the back of the head savagely, then slammed her to the ground, allowing the stone to open and them entomb her, its weight crushing her from all sides as he called to his teammates verbally and telepathically, his voice booming on both levels.

SNAP OUT OF IT!!!!! They are using you all!!!

[ the SAVAGE! ]

[ Isis grits her teeth and HISSES with shock and pain as Rampage suddenly grabs her arm and BREAKS it.]

BARBARIC CREATURE!

[ the pain is incredible! but so too are Isis' powers.]

Malice: Don't worry, Isis! my psi powers will block the pain....

[ the white noise effect startles both Isis and Malice, making it harder for Malice to focus...and then both women are sent flying across the room into a wall, sliding down to the floor.]

[breathing more heavily as she immediately grasps her arm and immobilizes it.]

Isis: he is moving with desperation. we nearly HAD him. his energy reserves are such that even with my draining his very life force and your psychic attack, he was able to fight back. we must go after him NOW while he is still weak!

[ hurt as she was, Dominique could heal herself when this was over. She'd suffered enough pain through her life, most of it caused by NICOLAS. A broken arm was not going to deter her from seeing HIM dead. She spoke with cold determination.]

[a rune forms on the wall...searing into the wall before fading from white, to gold then to invisible....and at that moment...a swarm of hungry, FLESH EATING locusts flows into view and begins to attack Nicolas. swirling around him...DEVOURING his flesh, his skin...]

DESTROY HIM!

[ Isis commands as this bloodthirsty manifestation one of the biblical plagues takes form. the locusts could not be destroyed physically. they were powered by magick, originating from the rune.]

:: Malice could FEEL the desperation in Nicolas' HEART. He KNEW he was on the ropes. Isis was DEFINATELY taking him to task and with the psycho blast, that only ADDED to the pain. At least until he used his own telepathic powers to block it.::

:: Rampage attacked Isis first, breaking her arm.::

NOT SO FAST, RAMPAGE!

:: by now, Malice was on her feet and ready to attack AGAIN. but then, the white noise effect, it struck her like being SHOCKED by a painfull jolt after sticking one's fingers into a socket. She was about to assist Dominique with stopping the pain from the fracture when both women went flying across the room into the wall, then sliding the floor. Malice was in her diamond form and Dominique didnt seem any worse for the wear.::

Click to expand...

:: she watches as Isis conjures a "plague" of FLESH EATING locusts to attack Rampage.::



Isis...we have to help Enchantra as well. We must cover EACH OTHER. Use your power...OPEN UP the ground that Enchantra is in with one of your runes. I'LL deal with Nicolas.

:: the "white noise" was an achilles heel for almost any telepath. Malice herself was stronger than most but it still came across like nails on a black board to her...and the sensation made it difficult to focus.::

fool! the white noise can't protect you from THIS!

:: extending her hand, a white halo forms around it as she thrusts forward and hurls a sparkling psi javeline. it rushes toward him with a thunderous roar and when it hits...it will cause him to have a MASSIVE STROKE!::
 
NO!

[ the sound of metal slicing through the air is heard as Silver Swan streaks into view. She's recovered from slamming through a solid marble pillar...her invulnerability ensured that she sustained no permanent physical damage.]

[ as the mutate flies through the air at high speeds, she swoops down...and lands, placing herself in the path of the oncoming psi javeline.]

I won't LET YOU!

[she braces herself and crosses her arms in front of her in an "X" pattern , the result of training from the AMAZONS as she uses the adamantium armour on her arms to block the PHYSICAL impact of the javeline and counts on her own mental immunity to negate its intended effect. she's counting on her invulnerability once more...]
 
and so

<< Rampage made a valiant effort, but the Sisterhood was definately giving him and his team mates a hell of a battle. Both sides were taking hits, but Malice's strategy for team work and coverage was giving the Sisterhood a steady advantage.>>



<< Sharon played a dangerous game. The psi javeline SLAMS into her...and the "lightning" like feedback is spectacular as it collides with the Silver Swan. Rampage , if he survives the flesh eating locusts, can thank her later for saving him from certain death....but once again Sharon is BATTERED by the force behind one of Malice's most powerfull trademark attacks and inspite of her own immense power, and mental protection, the Silver Swan is now out cold.>>

<< meanwhile, Isis, who is showing signs of stress from the pain of her broken arm, uses her power to open up the ground where Enchantra was entombed....all bindings are broken by her enchantments and Enchantra is free. Malice uses her power to prod Enchantra back to consciousness and directs her to regroup with them.>>

<< FIREBIRD, still reeling from the effects of Malice's last attack against her, forces Black Widow to take definative action. The only way she will be free of this, is either Malice or Firebird are rendered unconscious and it is far easier at this moment for Black Widow to subdue Firebird, for BOTH their sakes.>>

<< it was getting down to the wire. It was nearly 3 am, and soon...the "Blackout" would begin to fade. The members of the Six had gotten enough information to now identify the new Black Queen, to solve the issue of the takeover of King Enterprises and explore the mysterious connection between Nicolas and Dominique. but if they didnt get out soon...the information, nor much else would matter.>>

<< and unknown to them all, SPELLBINDER, now had a clear fix on them via her scrying glass, which allowed her to see PAST Enchantra's illusion warps. Everyone was physically in the same space, though to some of them at the battle it seemed they were now. Spellbinder concluded that a forced evacuation was the best course of action...and she would execute it in moments.>>
