Welcome to Gaia! ::

OOC: Wouldn't Regina have met Nightcrawler during some of the brotherhood teamups in Evo? He was no both of them. Heh, they have X-Men comics too? Heh - maybe the X-Men get their comic rather than tv show like the BHood smile

OOC: Point taken. That would distract me too. She might not have though at the same time because both of those battles were crazy. smile anyway, when Kai comes around to respond to us I'll go ahead and post.

We just need to get everybody else going now too smile

OOC: Sorry I didn't post yesterday some moron hit a telephone poll knocking out power to my neighborhood.

Cero could still smell the sulfur and brimstone smell left by Nightcrawler's porting. Cero steps into the light revealing himself completely to there sight. Now they can see a six feet tall, redhead , with a black trench coat a torn black undershirt and a pair of grass stained tan cargo pants, and a pair of sandels. "Well I gues you could say I am like Wolverine." Now if the two actually walked up to him they would see that he only appears to be in his early twenties and he looks like a younger Logan.

Now he continues to walk forward slowly retracting one claw at a time. "Well my fuse isn't as short as his but I am just a visious in a fight." He is now actually close enough for them to tell that his eyes are blue and for someone who lived in the woods he was remarcably clean and shaved.

Petra actually snickered at Regina's comment. She liked this woman. After their entire adventure together, she really knew she respected her.

Now, this man was another matter. Petra looked him up and down, in an objective matter... not to check out the extent of his muscles. Despite the fact that he was clean shaven (which if he really lived in the woods, he would have means to do such a thing), his clothing had all the appearnce of being in the wood for awhile. Besides, if he had been tracking them, Felidae or Deadpool would have noticed.

She wanted to trust him because he was like Logan, but she knew better. Logan would have her head if she immediately placed trust like that into somebody. At least, if something happened, they had numbers on their side, "I don't think he was following us, but I do think he knows we were here before."

The man gave a slight nod.

"I'm Mercury, this is Wraith. I would like to hear more about why you're here, if you're willing to tell us." Petra wasn't going to give him a real invitation back with them until she knew more.

Before he can say something, he and Petra both shot their head to the left towards the train tracks. She felt the stop of metal through the ground and he smelt trouble. Wraith saw what it was they were seeing soon enough as the night was heavy with shadows.

"I'll wake the team," Regina said and quickly vanished from sight.

Dazzler had already been awakened and yelled out the window to Petra, "There are at least twenty men. That's all my sensors picked up."

"Well, Stranger, I guess you get to prove yourself this evening. We don't usally play to kill, but I think these men are looking for some revenge." Petra melded her metal skin up to her collar line. She didn't want it reflecting in the moonlight.

"Friends of yours?" He popped his claws back out.

"Lets just say that we took something from them that was ours and broke their house while doing it." She then thanked the gods that Dole was taken by Nightcrawler.

"I doubt they're here for a tea party then," He and Petra moved to the edge of the wood so they would be less noticeable. She started forming metal spikes into her hands.

"Only the kind that involves shooting," The men weren't exactly invisible. Their guns and their belts reflected at night. Well, at least the X-Men and Brotherhood got a few hours of sleep first.

"We could do that, or you could let me and my sister take care of them. There'd be a couple of screams, and some nice colors, but it would done quickly" John said as he and Jessie stepped outside. Niether one of them had needed to be woken up. They had both been resting, true, but they'd never actually gone to sleep. And when Regina and Petra had left, John had gotten up and went to the window, watching over the house. He'd been able to make out most of the conversation between the three of them, since they'd been the only three talking and once he'd heard them mention the fact that they had company, he'd notified his twin and they'd came outside. "Have the two of you traded names yet?" Inferno asked Petra?

"Inferno, Blaze -" Petra started impromptu introductions. She realized that she didn't know this mans' name. He realized to and said a gruff, "X20."

He didn't seem to enjoy a disruption in his plan. Although, she knew very well that John and Jesse could do the job for them without any pain... well, without any of them feeling pain.

"I'd rather not fry them alive," Petra cringed at the thought, "But I would like you to start scaring the s**t out of them. Just don't burn the forest down."

"Now, come on," John said, "You know us better than that."

"Okay, you two go at them... IF they fire at you, then you attack them. They may be too scared and run right for the forrest. Then the rest of us will be waiting." Petra motioned to the rest of their team to fall in place with what X20 had suggested in the wood.

Cero didn't really care but his plan was easier, but he did give them the point theres is faster. "Ok you two just get the job done." And with that he goes into the woods to head closer toward the men. He thinks to himself, 'There aren't here or a tea party they are packing some serious heat...So I hope those two can handle it.'

Now Cero keeps his attention toward the men but lets his hearing let him know that the others are safely in the woods. 'Good I am glad they are getting in as quietly as possible.' He thinks while listening to the others tromp in the woods like he asked them to do.

John looked at his sister Jenny. "You heard the lady, so lets get to it. We'll be back shortly, and I promise, we'll only set the men on fire and not the forest" John said with a laugh as he and his sister headed off into the woods. John was hoping to have some fun with these guys, but he and his sister came back shortly looking dissappointed "What happened?" Petra asked them as they came back. "Those guys were a bunch of chickens. We set a couple of their men on fire, and as soon as they realized that me and Blaze were the ones, who started all those fires at that building, they took off. We didn't even warm up" John said sitting down.
