(Inside the Orchis Base) Karenza’s Witchblade that was made from Cable’s techno-organic arm began to glow as Cable’s ghost tapped into his wife’s Askani Phoenix and formed a temporary energy body, (I thought that I could help.) Karenza heard him say inside of her head as he formed a Psimitar and thrust it through the chest of a Prime Sentinel.. (I can only hold this form for a short time.. Enough time to aid the most beautiful immortal warrior that I have ever met.) Cable continued to speak in their mind link as he ripped the Prime Sentinel in half..Kari took a deep breath before looking at Hope as her daughter used whatever powers were around her to take down these Orchis bastards. "I figured these fools might not have taken it into consideration that someone would try portal magic. It was a one off for now. We really need to see if you can borrow more of the mystic power set, Hope. It might come in handy." As the fighting continued, Kari nodded to Scott as the group continued to push back the Orchis troopers and Prime Sentinels. Holding the Staff of One would have been a boon at the moment, but that was not a gift she could call on. But perhaps there was another card to pull from the deck. Kari looked at Scott and Young Nathan and motioned for them not to get too close to the area where the Prime Sentinels were now temporarily held back. Runes danced around her hands, and suddenly there was howling that sounded like the dead walked the earth once more as the walls and corridor shook. "Something to keep them busy," Karenza said as she heard a loud "Huzzah" from Constantine. "An old debt called in and repaid," she said as suddenly every mutant prisoner and X-Men combatant had a glowing X on this torsos. "We will all be fine. And if we get lucky, some of these damned things may stay dead this time. One of the darker spells from Siofra from a very black period in our family history." Before she could think more about that damned piece of the past, Nathan suddenly appeared at her side. {{A blessing I will take at any time, beloved, from the most amazing man and warrior I have ever known}} she said in their link as she thought of more ways to keep these bigots from interrupting Manifold's transport. {{It never ends, even when paradise is so close. I am sick to death of this garbage}} As Kari closed her eyes her version of a psimitar, the Spear of Lugh, appeared in her hands. "Yes, Hope, we are going old school indeed," she said as a beam of green light shot out at more advancing Prime Sentinels that were moving in on the team.
"I love that smell of Celtic magic," Drolta said to herself as the green beam ripped through the Prime Sentinel's in front of her. "Smells like right before a rainstorm." A series of East African sigils appeared in the air for a moment as she created a small shield to protect herself from the blast before she began to move the Sentinel debris. She glanced at some of the Orchis soldiers that had been wounded by the X-Men and held in a laugh. At one point not that long ago, she would've made them her victims too. But now, she only cared about the mutants. Drolta quickly made sure that her magic protecting her Lightbender amulet was at its strongest before she took off running, grabbing the arm of a Prime Sentinel and throwing it full force toward Hope before she grabbed two Orchis rifles and took fire toward Karenza. She didn't care if she hit anything or anyone, she just needed the opening to get close.

(Outside the Orchis base) “Scotty will get her out! I have no idea how she got here?!” Cain yelled out to Armur as he rammed the leg of a sentinel causing it to fall into another. Cain then leaped into the air and planted both feet into the sentinels chest causing it to fall back. As Cain was falling to the ground he was hit by a blast from another sentinel. The blast sent him skipping across the sand. As he laid on the ground on his back he saw black storm clouds roll in fast. For a moment he thought Storm was back and then he remembered Storm’s son Major X was with them and it must be him. It was very frightening and cool to see the lightning dancing down through the sky striking sentinels. Darkchylde and the gamma powered daughter had made it to what seemed like an exit point when Rain saw the reinforcements coming. "Sarah. They need you outside. You get to your family." She said using her power to create a portal she telekinetically pushed her through. Sarah landed in a crouched position when she saw her husband and son our of the corner of her eye. She was about to run to them when a sentinels blast hit her. "That tin man was a very bad idea." Through her time being Thor she had been able to harness all the power of the hammer into herself making her the physical embodiment of Mjounir. She leapt into the air charging herself with electricity as she fried the sentinels circuits while her physical body shredded it in half. "Nothing keeps me from my boys!"

Seeing Sarah was out of harms way Darkchyldes attention was immediately turned to someone new entering the battle and came to Kari's left. "Friend of yours Kari?" Rain said sensing the magic from this new foe she was ready to strike but hesitated listening for Kari to guide the next move.

Post by Manifold (Eden Fesi) on Aug 24, 2024 23:42:34 GMT
There were screams of horror coming from nearby cells that Sage and Manifold hadn't cleared as they were quickly cut down by Ein as he remained cloaked and invisible prior to him attacking. He took advantage of the commotion Tessa and Eden created to continue his sneak attack. Once he finished, he hacked into the locks with his suit and began to free some of the captives. "Follow me," he hissed at them as they began to pause, but eventually began to follow him out of their prison. With his sensors, he knew that Sage and Manifold were close by and lead the innocent mutants to their location. "I have some more!" he shouted out, making sure Sage didn't start shooting as he came around the corner and pointed the rescued mutants toward Manifold. It was just then that a single Orchis soldier opened fire on Ein after he got the last captive inside the room with Sage and Manifold. He hissed in anger and charged the soldier with his sword, cutting his gun in half, but the soldier dodged with a side step and managed to get him into an arm lock, and managed to twist and slam him into the ground before pulling out a sidearm and firing point blank into his face mask. Ein wasn't hurt, but he was surprised by the soldier's technique because only one person he knew of actually used those moves the way that were just done to him. Ein's exoskeleton held up to the gunshots, so once the soldier was out of ammo, he easily threw the soldier off of him and into the air and then hit him with a plasma shockwave and sent him down the hallway. (Inside the Orchis Base) Sage’s kept firing her guns with each shot hitting a guard as Hayabusa was taking the others out in his cloak of invisibility. She knew it was him by the hissing sound he made from time to time as a guard fell to the ground dead. “We have you covered Manifold! Take them to Krakoa and then we need to get to Cyclops!” She said just as mystical energy in the shape of an X formed on every mutant prisoner. The X symbol took on the form of a magical sigil in appearance. Tessa knew it was Karenza using mutant magic.(Inside the Orchis Base) Eden was taken back by Hayabusa’s hissing sounds as he attacked the Orchis soldiers and Prime Sentinels in his invisible form. It was very creepy and Manifold was glad that he was on their side. “I am a mutant just like all of you.” Eden said to the prisoners that both Sage and Hayabusa had been freed from their cells. “I am going to open a portal that is going to take you to a safe place. There will be other mutants that will help you with all your needs from medicine to a nice warm meal!” He said to them before he opened a portal and Exodus was waiting for them with Professor X on the otherside. Once the last prisoner stepped through Manifold closed the portal and opened a new one to the cell next door where Cyclops and Kid Cable were fighting. “Let’s go!” Eden called out as both Sage and Hayabusa leaped through as did Manifold. He sealed the portal behind him. The fighting was more intense as Manifold had to hide behind some sort of computer terminal as Prime Sentinels made it through.

(Outside the Orchis Base)
Both Quentin and Banshee banked hard together and swung around to fly towards Tytanic. Suprema and Althena. They were swarmed by Prime Sentinels. (Reinforcements are on their way.) Quentin said telepathically to them. He had lost track of where Vulcan was. Kid Omega was still using his telekinetic force in the form of a pinkish-purple Phoenix force raptor. With his Phoenix talons he grabbed a Prime Sentinel and pulled it apart while using his wings to strike others as he entered the fray.

(Outside the Orchis base)
Havok stood beside his daughter Magnetrix and blasted the closest sentinels that were near them while she had a magnetic energy field around them. The field protected them from an energy blast from a sentinel. Suddenly dark clouds rushed in bringing lightning strikes to the sentinels around them. “That must be Major X using his mothers playbook!” Alex said to his daughter as he continued blasting the big sentinels.

(Outside the Orchis Base) The inside of the cockpit was rocking hard with both Dragonfly and Domino going hard with the rail-guns and the missile turrets.. “Dom.. The shield system is holding strong! I am going to punch it!” He spouted to her as he returned his attention to the mobile transport controls. Conor started the mobile transport and drove it forward into the army of sentinels.. “Sport the war!!!” He shouted as the transport rammed into the sentinels and kept going..(Outside the Orchis Base) “Sport the war!” Domino joined Dragonfly as she continued shooting the sentinels that were all around them. The mobile transport slammed into them and knocked them down. They were already damaged from her non stop shooting. “Shit! The guns are overheating and shutting down!” Domino yelled out to Conor as red lights began to flash on her gunner controls. (Outside the Orchis Base) As Domino yelled out that the guns were overheating. The lights inside the cockpit turned red and alarms began to sound off. Before Dragonfly could react the cockpit exploded as a Prime Sentinel entered the cockpit. “It’s time to bail!” Conor shouted to Domino as he unbuckled himself from his seat with one hand and shooting the Prime Sentinel with his side arm which was a particle pistol with his other hand causing serious damage to the Prime Sentinel. Once he shot the sentinel in the face he kicked it as hard as he could back out of the cockpit. “Dom?!” Dragonfly shouted to her again but this time he heard her shooting her gun and some sort of fight above . “Fuck!” He spouted to himself but he knew she had the same mutant power of being lucky so he pulled the ejection lever and hung onto his chair. The top of the cockpit ejected first and then both sections ejected from the mobile transport. As the cockpit shot straight up like a rocket, Conor grabbed the side and pulled himself up to Domino’s section. Half way up and over he saw part of one Prime Sentinel and another one had Domino pinned to her seat.. Dragonfly started shooting at it and trying to pull himself over at the same time..

(Outside the Orchis Base)
Alexander hovered slightly off the ground as the wind circled around him. Desdemona had to take a few steps back. Major X commanded the winds but not in the way that his mother Storm did.. He did not have the control or the experience. It took a lot of his concentration for the lightning to strike the sentinels. Alexander could already feel what little control of the weather slipping away until he fell back to the ground. Desdemona was able to catch him before he landed on the ground.

Banshee’s sonic scream hit a large group of Prime Sentinels as he flew into the swarm with Kid Omega. Kid Omega banked to the left as Sean banked towards the left. The attack caused the Prime Sentinels to spread out allowing Tytanic.. Althena and the others have more flexibility in their fighting. Everything was going well for Banshee until a blast from a Prime Sentinel hit his leg and caused him to spin in the air and descend until he hit the ground in a roll. The way he hit the ground in the roll reduced the physical damage of the impact.

Post by Deadpool on Aug 30, 2024 2:04:53 GMT
(Outside the Orchis Base) “Hang on tight!” Wade responded to Vanessa as he holstered his guns and grabbed her with one arm around her waist and the other pulled out a grappling gun from his web-gear. He shot a cable out to the back of another sentinel that was across from them and leaped off the shoulder of the sentinel that they were on just as it started to fall.. They swung off and down to the ground. Both Deadpool and Copycat hit the ground and went into a roll. “Not perfect but we’re down!” He said as he rolled on top of her and pulled her into another roll just as a sentinel’s foot came down in the area that they were.. “That was a close one!”(Outside the Orchis Base) "To close for my liking!” Vanessa responded to Deadpool as lightning struck the sentinel that was above them. “Holy smokes is that Storm?” She said as Wade responded. (It’s Cable and Storm’s son, Major X.) She did not have time to respond as she grabbed Deadpool’s arm and pulled him into a hard run as the sentinel above them came down with a second lightning strike to the chest. “Run faster!”(Outside the Orchis Base) As Wade and Vanessa ran they saw Banshee’s crash landing and headed in that direction. By the time they arrived at his location a bunch of Prime Sentinels landed on the ground and surrounded him. Just as they were about to execute him both Deadpool and Copycat opened fired their guns at the Sentinels.. “Back off you bunch of Terminator rejects! We are kind of fond of the Irish Man! Well he is not too fond of me because of my old obsession with his daughter which was in the past!” Wade spouted out as he kept shooting at the Prime Sentinels and looked over at Vanessa and then back to his targets.. “Maybe by saving his life and that I moved on to the real love of my life we will be cool with one another.. Or maybe not it is hard to tell with him!” Deadpool said as he took a blast from a Prime Sentinel that was above him to the back. Wade yelled out in pain as he went down.

(Inside the Orchis Base) “Stab my eyes!” Young Nathan shouted when the Prime Sentinels that he had already shot and brought down were now starting to get back on their feet. Kid Cable quickly holstered his guns and pulled some sort of handle grip from his web-gear. The handle grip expanded out into a Psimitar.. The Psimitar is a sacred weapon of the Clan Askani that takes many years to master. In the right hands it could be a massive powerful weapon. The Psimitar allows psionic energy to flow through it allowing telekinetic blasts and the enhancement of mental powers. Young Nathan instantly charged his Psimitar lance with telekinetic energy. He plunged his Psimitar into the chest of a Prime Sentinel and channeled a massive blast causing the Prime Sentinel to explode.. The telekinetic blast also hit the Prime Sentinel that was behind it. This was the moment that Manifold’s portal opened and Sage.. Hayabusa and Manifold came through..

(Inside the Orchis Base)
“Those are mystic symbols to help protect you. Mutant magic!” Cyclops explained to the mutant prisoners who were a little bit frightened by the sudden X shape sigils that appeared on them. The conversation ended when the Prime Sentinels busted through into the cell. Scott slammed closed the cell doors to protect the prisoners. He spun around delivering a wide optic blast across the room striking down many of the Sentinels that were almost on top of him. Manifold’s portal opened and Sage leaped out of it, guns blazing.. She quickly made her way to Cyclops' side.. “Your timing as always is perfect!” He said to Sage as he unleashed another optic blast..

(Inside the Orchis Base) “I am glad that they underestimated you kid!” Logan spouted out to Gimmick as Cair pulled the Prime Sentinel back with her Witchblade tentacles allowing Logan large slashes with his claws.. Gutting the Prime Sentinel. Another Prime Sentinel’s head exploded when Gimmick threw a charged card at it. “I have to say kid without any real training you are handling yourself pretty well!” Logan and Cair moved in closer to Carmen to keep her in their fighting circle.(Inside the Orchis Base) “I might have not trained in the danger room but karate classes and gymnastics after school when I was younger sure paid off!” Carmen responded to Wolverine as she tossed a bunch of charged cards at the Prime Sentinels as she went into a roll and kicked the feet out from under an Orchis soldier and punched him in the side of his temple knocking him out. Gimmick continued to fight by Wolverine and Cair’s side. (Inside the Orchis base) “You can fight.. That is for sure Kid!” Logan responded to Gimmick as Logan plunged his claws into the head of a Prime Sentinel as Cair’s tentacles ripped through the body. The situation quickly changed as a Clan Akkaba sorceress appeared out of nowhere.. The situation distracted him enough to get blasted in the chest by a Prime Sentinel.. Everything went black as he felt chest and heart explode..

Post by Hope Summers on Aug 30, 2024 13:33:13 GMT
Kari took a deep breath before looking at Hope as her daughter used whatever powers were around her to take down these Orchis bastards. "I figured these fools might not have taken it into consideration that someone would try portal magic. It was a one off for now. We really need to see if you can borrow more of the mystic power set, Hope. It might come in handy." As the fighting continued, Kari nodded to Scott as the group continued to push back the Orchis troopers and Prime Sentinels. Holding the Staff of One would have been a boon at the moment, but that was not a gift she could call on. But perhaps there was another card to pull from the deck. Kari looked at Scott and Young Nathan and motioned for them not to get too close to the area where the Prime Sentinels were now temporarily held back. Runes danced around her hands, and suddenly there was howling that sounded like the dead walked the earth once more as the walls and corridor shook. "Something to keep them busy," Karenza said as she heard a loud "Huzzah" from Constantine. "An old debt called in and repaid," she said as suddenly every mutant prisoner and X-Men combatant had a glowing X on this torsos. "We will all be fine. And if we get lucky, some of these damned things may stay dead this time. One of the darker spells from Siofra from a very black period in our family history." Before she could think more about that damned piece of the past, Nathan suddenly appeared at her side. {{A blessing I will take at any time, beloved, from the most amazing man and warrior I have ever known}} she said in their link as she thought of more ways to keep these bigots from interrupting Manifold's transport. {{It never ends, even when paradise is so close. I am sick to death of this garbage}} As Kari closed her eyes her version of a psimitar, the Spear of Lugh, appeared in her hands. "Yes, Hope, we are going old school indeed," she said as a beam of green light shot out at more advancing Prime Sentinels that were moving in on the team.
"I love that smell of Celtic magic," Drolta said to herself as the green beam ripped through the Prime Sentinel's in front of her. "Smells like right before a rainstorm." A series of East African sigils appeared in the air for a moment as she created a small shield to protect herself from the blast before she began to move the Sentinel debris. She glanced at some of the Orchis soldiers that had been wounded by the X-Men and held in a laugh. At one point not that long ago, she would've made them her victims too. But now, she only cared about the mutants. Drolta quickly made sure that her magic protecting her Lightbender amulet was at its strongest before she took off running, grabbing the arm of a Prime Sentinel and throwing it full force toward Hope before she grabbed two Orchis rifles and took fire toward Karenza. She didn't care if she hit anything or anyone, she just needed the opening to get close. (Inside the Orchis Base) It was pure reflex how Hope was able to side swipe the Prime Sentinel that was thrown at her by Drolta the mysterious Clan Akkaba sorceress that suddenly appeared. Hope responded with a telekinetic blast through her Psimitar and hit Drolta magic field and reflected the blast right at her. Hope evaded the blast and started to run towards Drolta but quickly took cover. Drolta started to wildly shoot with the rifles she took off of the dead Orchis soldiers.. “Stab my eyes!” She spouted to herself.. (Mom you okay?) Hope telepathically reached out to Karenza as she hid behind some sort of computer panel table that stretched out across the back of room.. Hope was also upset to see her father fade away once Drolta appeared.. Her magic must of broke the connection..

{{I'm fine, and that b!tch is no friend of mine!}} Kari said telepathically to Hope and Rain as Drolta entered the scene. Kari was glad Hope had gotten to safety, because her other daughter in the base was moving toward the front of the action now.
"Celtic Magic sure as hell doesn't like the smell of you!" Scarlett shouted as she stood and looked at the Akkaba-associated mage and growled at her, the Askani Force armor her Mamo Siofra had tweaked for her forming as she stood her ground.
"Shite," Kari muttered as she looked at Drolta. "Vampire and mage. Lovely combo. Not what we heard about in the bloody playbook!" Kari was just thrilled that Alucard was not popping up under the control of Orchis at the moment, and she silently prayed that would not happen today or any other day. {{Brother, Jessie, we have a wildcard in play. Be careful}} Kari said telepathically to Ewan and his new bride. Kari could also see the new combatant looking for openings in the battle line. {{Rock Star, remember those lovely days in Paris? When we brought the house down?}}
Constantine grinned as fiery sigils erupted from his hands and parts of the floor started to jut up around Drolta. Kari was keeping the vampiric mage's gunfire away from the team as John tried to weave in a spell to block her magic. {{Ain't working too hot, petal}} he said in their link as Kari formed a "magic box" around his work.
{{Hope, Scarlett, your Dad is OK, and he is giving me strength}} Kari said as the ground shook where John was still weaving his spell. {{Work together to help Cyclops, and we'll try to keep this one busy}}
{{And we are not letting those things you summoned in here}} John protested. {{Too risky}}
"Sydney, Piper, Dante! We could use your help!" Kari shouted as she prepared for Drolta to undo John's spell. The amulet around the mage's neck was likely there to allow her to walk in the light. Kari had seen many of them over the years, and she knew it was not the source of the magic being used against them now. That was another problem entirely.
