Marcel Porter
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀  Marcel had watched in the shadows long enough. At least long enough to see what was going on and what he could at least do for now. To add to it, The Omega's were now arriving. He had no reason to stay hiding now. He didn't like to count odds seeing as he was one of the many who were inexperienced, but they were doing more than he was. Maybe the sense of him not liking people getting hurt was getting to him. After all, he felt really useless for not being able to do anything for his father with Mr. Sinister. He looked at the stores in the mall and found something of interest. The weapon shop. He walked in towards it and looked around. The owner or anyone for that matter wasn't in there. He thought that would be the first place most people would flee to when they saw people with powers and angry protesting with the usual idiot screaming inaudible words leading mostly everyone astray to sheek shelter and arm themselves. His guess was wrong.
He examined the knives and continued to walk by them, looking at the swords in the back. He walked past the counter and made his way to them, examining them. In order for his hydrokinesis to work, he needed two things: water nearby and water to drink if he was going to access it from his body. He could try with soda like he was wondering. It was a liquid after all. It was worth a shot, but for later when he had all the right time to try something risky like that. He grabbed as many katana's as he could and layed them down on the counter, unsheathing most of them. He really loathed those swords. Real ones that weren't made for display were hard to come by these days unless of course you payed for one not in some store in the mall. They could cut sure enough but they were more susceptible to breaking. He only needed two small ones. The ones mostly used when people would perform a harakiri on themselves as the samurai then cut their heads off. He just needed to travel lightly. He grabbed the two katanas he found interesting enough after performing a quick procedure to see how sharp they were out of the others. He took his own shoestrings to fasten them around his waist. There was no need for him to keep running around with them. Shoes also weighed a person down sure enough. He kicked the shoes off to reveal he had another set of shoes on. The kind that fitted around the toes mostly used for hiking. He walked out the store as he was ready. There wasn't always a reason to rely on water after all.
He came back to the recent events, now ready, spotting flying trash cans and fire. He looked to notice Eli fighting Pyro. After watching the the little fight go on, he figured he should at least step in and help him out. He noticed the situation quickly as it began to get out of hand, one of them being a bomb with Pyro had something lodged in his hands. He figured a distraction was needed to get him out of there. He figured water could fight against fire or if they collided it would at least make some steam for him to try and get them both out of there. Maybe he could use the water to distract Pyro long enough to get Eli out of there. A small waves of water to hit him to prevent him from from releasing that fire once more. He was thinking frantically until he noticed the fountain spewing water. He would have took it form his own body but that wouldn't be enough for him to knock Pyro off his feet and get him somewhere else before he tried anything. He reached out his right hand as the water began to come towards him. He was aiming to get as much water as he could. When the water was in a big ball hovering above his head, he kept his hand in the same position as he walked back some, picking up the pace until he was running with his hand still holding the water. Of course by now the water was extremely noticable, it was a hassle of keeping it steady. The water was wobbling in the air. He wasn't used to having to do something like that. Hopefully Eli noticed it, and it wasn't hard to do just that. He used both hands as the water came crashing down above Pyro, but he was little off the mark of what he was aiming for. At least it would distract him. "Everything is amazing when you see the view in...

Omega - Danger Room to X-Jet to War Zone - Called It Again, and They Say I'm Not Telepathic  "You?" Maddy questioned rather loudly. "Why is it always freakin' you?" She said, blowing the bit of black hair out of her face and staring at Roland across the roof. He began taking as much fire as she had been. This wasn't exactly the saving she had been hoping for or expecting, considering she had asked Knoxx who was directly below her. Maddy leaned from around air-conditioning unit to end up shooting one bot who got out and around the doorway to the roof. The thing was in the middle of its fall forward before it disappeared, and Knoxx's voice finally crackled over the comm. The girl blinked, raising her comm to her mouth, not fully understanding one thing: "Wait, you're telling me that there's friendly fire in the game?" Her gun raised one more time, she leaned around the opposite side of the unit. She squeezed the trigger for half of a second, one bullet flying at Roland's foot. =AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT= Maddy sat with the hood up on the cloak she had been given (at her request). It had been hanging in her locker, wrapped in plastic, and now it covered her hand as it snapped repetitively. It was a terrible nervous habit she had picked up, which was usually reserved for tests and dates. This was the Brotherhood, though. Screw the Morlockes, Belasco, or Halloween Town. This was Magneto. Some of their ideals corresponded a little too well. How Omegas existed under Xavier's dogma she had questioned in the past, and she supposed that it was only to keep an eye on some of them. If any of them ended up breaking from Team X for their ideals, they would be, potential, enormous threats to Xavier. They had already dealt with Solaris being on the wrong side of the trenches, even if that was a totally different scenario. As the Sun Queen spoke, Maddy glanced over at Scott, looking hard faced as ever. She was just glad that there were no psychics on-board. The plane slowed to a stop over the mall roof, and even over the Jet's engine she could hear the chaos below. Her hand stopped moving in all jittery as she reached for her bow beside her in preparation. The jet moved again as Sidetrack, Chameleon, and Digger fell out. She felt a little pity for them, getting stuck with this hell as their first real mission. Christian would probably make it through fine, and she had no idea at all about Chameleon. She felt worst for Digger actually. Maddy didn't know how brilliant of a fighter she was, what with the DR being the first time she saw the girl in any kind of action, but Megan just seemed a little too nice. They would have to learn. Maddy had only been around for nearly two years, but it felt like a hell of a lot longer. When the X-Jet touched down again, Maddy let out a deep breath and stood up, looking just a bit more set than before. She just had to get in the right mind set. She knew the walk-through well enough. hundreds of training sessions had taught her loads, but some how they never truly prepared her for these real thing. It was easier for her to make the whole thing unreal so that it didn't hit as hard, and so that she didn't go completely crazy. What they were supposed to do against these Brotherhood people, she didn't even know. A lot of their powers didn't give well to just disablement or detainment. She had glowing freaking mind knives with a wicked sting, for ******** sake. She perked up just when hearing Orchid's voice from beside her, breaking her from her thought. "Oh, oh yeah. Don't even worry about it. If anything, you'll probably have the pleasure of saving my a** in a few minutes. I hope not, but you know..." She forced herself to give the girl a smile. The Danger Room was completely different from this, as much as Maddy wanted to believe it wasn't. "...and you'll have to get in line for the Scarlet Witch. I called dibs on that, like, two years ago," she said a little dryly but with all the best intent. She felt Kitty Pryde's raised eyebrow from across the jet, and the woman was only met with a snide "Oh, like you didn't know."Maddy walked past her down the ramp onto the rooftop with the rest of the team, daring to look at the scene below them. Smoke rose from all around them. It looked more like a War Zone than their DR session had ever. Fixing her cloak around her she made a psi-arrow and racked it. She would just have to follow the trail of twisted metal.Let's go downtown and talk to the modern kids./ They will eat right out of your hand/ using great big words that they don't understand.

 Omega/ Rally turned War Zone/ THE Big BadJacen grinned as Christian spoke up, feeling the vibrations of A.I.’s marching into the building after him. He felt guilty for a brief second, believing he had led the bots to this hideout the others were using. As Sidetrack voiced his concern of doors, he shrugged. “Yea, uh, sorry bout that,” shrugging apologetically. How many had been following him? 6 or- Narcissa’s shout and the subsequent melting away of the simulation stopped that train of thought. /// Later... Jacen spun a collapsed staff in his hand, threading the non-metallic rod between his fingers absent-mindedly. He’d had to switch out his usual metal staff with this one for obvious reasons, not much enjoying the thought of being run-through with his own weapon. It was essentially the same aside from that. And it didn’t shoot fire. Pity. Narcissa’s brief was quick, understandably so as the X-Jet flew like the wind. The senior X-men just watched as The Omega Leader took charge, and the rest of the juniors seemed just as nervous as him. The thought of actually facing Magneto, essentially the mutant version of the boogeyman… Everything else they'd come up against was cake. Hah, he never thought he’d rather be fighting Limbo demons again… The Mall team got off quickly and Jacen gave one of his customary lazy-man's salutes to the departing Teammates. Strike that, departing had such a connotation… Roland’s question was answered by Kerri and Orchid and Maddy were lightening the mood, which was much appreciated if not customary during missions it seemed. Jacen looked at Scott, strapped in across from him, ruby eyepiece staring into his soul. Whether or not the Headmaster was looking at him could easily be debated, but it didn’t make it less weird. Jacen averted his eyes around the Jet, looking from Omega to teacher to Omega. As the X-Jet landed, Jacen unfastened himself with practiced ease, sliding the rod into it’s loop on his uniform. He found himself taking a breath as he stepped down the ramp, moving along the rooftop as he took in the view. Kraken’s trade-mark grin was nowhere to be found as screams of terror permeated the air. The Omega sighed, kicking a piece of mangled metal. He knew his views tended to be more peace-oriented than most Omegas, but he was still amazed by Magneto’s capacity for destruction. Jacen stepped up next to Rave, looking through the smoke and flames to where the rally had been hastily evacuated. “We’ve come a long way from that beach on Muir Island...”

 Omega.
Heading to the mall. Hopefully with less friendly fire incidents. As they began to head back up to the roof of the building the simulation was cut short and why you ask? Because it looked like there was a situation at the mall that went from really bad to out of control with the addition of Magneto and his brotherhood. Whoever hadn’t heard of Magneto by now was officially living under a rock. Adding him to any situation was only a recipe for disaster. Megan went from jittery nervous to officially scared but since there wasn’t much that could be done now it was pointless to panic she was officially on the clock. Narcissa ordered them to the X-jet in five minutes. Megan was there in three since she was already in uniform she didn’t need much else other than a few odds and ends she didn’t take with her on the simulation. ----X-Jet--- On the jet Megan sat tapping her fingers nervously against the leg of the seat she was sitting in as scenery screamed by them and Narcissa gave them the basic rundown on both how they were to act and their equipment. It was a basic rundown but since they had some new faces, Megan included in that, it was felt to be necessary which was good because Megan hadn’t been aware of the emergency button on it. Or if she had been told she had forgotten about it. She looked up at her name being called and nodded. She was heading to the mall to help maintain order. That was unfortunately a task that was going to be easier said than done especially since most the people there weren’t going to be friendly. Personally Megan wasn’t sure this was going to end well at all. But they had to do what they had to do they’d see how bad things were when they got there. ---Mall roof--- Megan blinked looking as the jet zipped off and she, Chameleon and Sidetrack were left to head inside. Megan herself looked around and caught something out of the corner of her eye and as she went to look at it she heard Chameleon ask if anyone had seen anything. ”Not really.” She said and a split second later the other Omega was sent to the ground and Megan spun to see what just happened. She caught a very brief flash of silver hair and the figure zipped off again. ”That’s not...good...” She said and looked to find the speedster again. She found him...or at least Sidetrack had found him and Quicksilver was apparently too fast for him and he was quick to grab a hostage and zip off again. This was kind of confusing but at the moment there was little they could do as Sidetrack warned the others that they were going to have company with a hostage. This day just kept getting better and better. The situation at the mall was complete chaos and so much to the point that Megan wasn’t even sure where they were supposed to even start. Sidetrack had already waded into the chaos and Megan wasn’t terribly sure where Chameleon had gone off to as she had gone into camo mode on the roof. She was supposed to help out the Alpha’s but there was a small issue on that front. Megan only knew some of the Alpha’s and she only knew them by sight and she couldn’t see them around so she was a little unsure of just where she needed to go and who she needed to help.

Walk tall in the power day after day
Never, Never, Never lose sight of the way Lorelle~Ace
Team:Omega
Location biggrin r/Rally......End Game.
Ability: Power-Augmentation  “Then you would be guessing wrong Paladin, Power Augmentation.” Lorelle calmly replied back to Roland’s question of what her mutation was, sure that everyone heard since her comm was on, so that way no one would ask her again. He seemed to think about that for a minute (or so she guessed) and looked away, continuing on about what their new game plan should be. She was glad he had stopped staring at her, even though she was sure her eyes looked…well eerie right now. If he had kept on she would have more than likely told him he was creeping her out a bit, but right now wasn’t the time for that.
Just like how right now wasn’t the most perfect time to observe her other teammates. That could wait until later.
Seeing as they were just standing around, well almost all of them; Paladin going to help out Madison and Christian sitting down, she cut off her ability-her speed, ears, and relaxes going back to normal for now.
She glanced at Jacen, codename kraken as she remembered, giving him a small wave when he came in through the window. It would seem that this was the place to be right now. But maybe not. The simulation abruptly stopped and the city along with her gun disappeared. As Narcissa explained what was happening , Lorelle couldn’t help but to think about one thing: Magneto was back. She wasn’t sure if this was a good thing….or okay no, there was no doubt about it this was absolutely bad.
(Time Skip)
She put the bowie knife she got from the armory in her ankle holster that she put on her left ankle under her tight black pants. Her powers, the bowie knife, along with the self defense class she took last year were the only defense she had. Ace would just have to stay calm and collected. Kind of hard to right now being on a plane. God, she hated planes. Breathing in and out with her eyes closed and hands holding onto the seat for dear life she listened to the small briefing they were getting from their leader.
Lorelle was silent for most of the ride to the rally; it was easy for people to forget sometimes that she was in a room with them. She don’t really have anything important to say anyway. Roland was asking Kerri about the brotherhood and Orchid was joking with Madison about who had dibs on the Scarlet Witch. Soon the X-Jet landed and with it there was Smoke, screams, police sirens, and all out chaos.
This fight wouldn’t be a cakewalk, at all.
See the dawn come and the dusk hang
See the power rise from an open hand OOC: ......Oy! I'm still alive! >.< So late.

Omega: Danger Room control room the roof top getting ready to face Magneto. Lillian had followed what went on in the training sim. Everyone was doing there thing in the simulation. And some how sometimes it seemed like team work. Well that was with the exception of the Dom and Aren's friendly fire fight. She couldn't help but laugh at that situation. Cissa appeared not so amused at the pairs antics as evidenced by her throwing her gun at Aren. Though Aren and Dom had been pulled from the simulation before it struck it's intended target. It really was very amusing. She hit a button that let her talk to Dom and Aren in the holding area they were put in. "That was amusing guys and all. But hope your ready for the lecture that you will get most likely from Cissa she doesn't seem amused by it." She said simply through the comm to the two guys. Others in the sim though seemed to be doing alright. Kerrigan was doing well as a sort of field commander. After the Dom Aren nonsense. Kerrigan was working to help her teammates moving over to aid the new girl Megan before working on going to help Maddy up on the roof. Megan aka Digger had a smart idea blocking the door way as Lillian could see through the cameras Kerrigan also seemed to think it was a good idea. Lillian was worried for a moment when the new girl Orchid was pinned down by some of the AI henchmen. But the new girl got some back up from the roof tops by Maddy. It was interesting to see how somehow even with everyone doing their own thing they managed to still help each other out at times. On another side Roland was roof jumping and Jacen decided to do some fancy moves to climb up the building with out getting hit by the lasers. It ended up getting him to meet up with other team members, Christian, Leion, and new girl Lorelle. Then well the situation changed and time for the fun and games simulation to end. Sadly the world outside these walls needed them once more. From demons to mutant terrorists to racist senators. Weren't there others out there who were more meant to deal with these kinds of situations. You know like SHIELD, The Avengers, or even the Fantastic Four. But that wasn't the case it was up to them the residents of Xavier's to once again save the day. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lillian had suited up and joined the other Omega's at the jet she had the medical supply bag in hand to put on the jet. Never knew when you would need something on a mission anything could happen. There was no true impossibility in the world for those at Xavier's she had learned that over the year. She had visited other dimensions, got to mess around with Alien tech. Sure other dimensions and aliens among other things were known by the public. But before she went to Xavier's and to the average person those things were just stories in the paper that seemed to crazy to be real most times. Oh how that perspective went out the window. But now it was time for another mission. While they wanted to be careful when the simulation was the take to be on the safe side. This was a real mission and they knew Lillian would be okay and could buckle down as it were. This was a scary one Magneto was the baddest of the bad of the villains the Xmen had faced. Magneto and his mutant followers had brought monumental destruction to New York and in Response SHIELD practically flattened the mutant haven known as Genosha because it was Magneto's home his ruled lands if you will. And here now all the anti-mutant propaganda, legislation, and violence brought Magneto back out into the light. She feared another war like what happened in New York and Genosha was on the horizon. The main portion of their group was heading to Magneto's location while Sidetrack, Digger, and Chameleon had been dropped off at the mall to assist the Alpha's with the massive hostage situation contained with in. It wasn't long at all before their group reached their own destination. Exiting the craft with the others she slung the medical bag over her shoulder. She some of the others talking about who they thought was there with Magneto. And even some about who had dibs on Wanda the Scarlet Witch. But no matter what this was a sticky situation. Unknown variables were everywhere, from the fleeing members of the crowd, to what security the Senator had with him, to Magneto and what followers he may or may not have with him. Lillian stayed quiet standing near Cissa waiting for more orders from Cissa. She wasn't sure if the Omega leader planned on partnering them up or if she was leaving them to more handle things as each saw fit. Sure the standard orders for the situation like save civilians and watch each others back. Not to mention the whole don't be stupid and get killed, which she certainly agreed with no one needed to die today. She was thinking to herself that maybe she should of gone to Elixir in the med bay to snag his powers before leaving. Given the situation that power would be an amazingly handy one to have. But if needed there were many powers among the group that could prove useful. You had the fire power in a couple forms even defensive ones and several powers in between. Just then a message came through from Sidetrack to Cissa about Quicksilver most likely heading there way but the one certain of it was the speedster had a hostage. "Well that's one known to be with him at least." Lillian said while it didn't make things better especially with the added element of a hostage to the mix. But was always good to be able to label another variable as known. It was comforting that some senior Xmen were with them all of which have had many dealing in the past with those they will be confronting at this moment.

ℜ@√℮ +~+ Ѻмεgα- This post is crappier than was intended  His first real mission since coming back, and their opponent was Magneto. . . Well at least his powers didn't have anything to do with metal, besides being able to make a lot of holes in it. He rode silently on the X-jet and listened to the others talking, come o think of it he didn't really know much about the brotherhood either, luckily the last time they attacked the mansion had been just before Leion first got there. He waived to those exiting at the mall, he thought it strange that Sidetrack was sent off with no other energy users, leaving him practically powerless, but there must have been a reason. When they arrived at the rally Leion stepped off the jet and fastened the belts on his sleeves to keep them out of the way during such a crucial mission. Kraken approached him from his right "We've come a long way from that beach on Muir Island. . .""You said it, Kraken, you said it. . ." He wasn't sure he was ready for this, but he was going to do his best even if he was so tired he couldn't move for a week after this. "You get to see my new tricks too, hopefully they help."Leion + James ~ Evans

I am temperamental
And I have imperfections
And I am emotional
I am unpredictable, I am naked
I am vulnerable, I am a woman Code Name: Siren
Team: Alpha
Location: The Mall
Ability: Sound Manipulation
Singing: Nothing. Too upset, to sing. █║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█│║▌║││█║▌│║║█║█║▌│█║▌│║║█║   Everything seemed to fly into fast forward for the songstress, as suddenly there was hand around her mouth—Manicured nails digging into her cheek. Her heart hammered in her chest, like the wings of a humming bird…Trying frantically to escape the gilded cage that her bones and sternum made. Feeling cool metal press to her temple, the fast forward stopped and everything slowed…As if she had all the time in the world to think, plan a way out of this. Mystique knew her…Knew her, from her employ under Mr. Sinister…The man responsible for ruining her life.
The songstress could suddenly hear everything crystal clear…Screams…The sounds of flame curling the wall paper away. A little girl whimpering in the arms of her mother not far away. Her inherent echolocation painted sketchy hazy images for her... When she was actively able to protect sound to read back, they were clearer…But this was random. “I want nothing.”, Mystique snarled out at Leonardo—The gun in her grasp pressing tighter against Isabella’s skull. The itch to just…Pull the trigger and be done with this one was almost more than the blue skinned woman could tolerate. She’d caused enough trouble, the last time they’d seen one another face to face. Her, and that Wolverine clone.
Though she hadn’t liked the fat man—She still hadn’t forgiven him for murdering the Blob.
“But Eri—Magneto wishes that I gift you all with a proposal.”
“Join us. You’re either with us—Or you’re with them. He knew that you X-Men couldn’t leave well enough alone… So this is your once in a lifetime offer. Join us, so I don’t have to waste my time killing you.” Isabella felt the response fill her throat—But with her mouth covered, it only welled as a muffled shout. Disgust, laced with a well hidden ounce of fear showed plainly in emerald eyes—She twisted, stupidly in the woman’s arms—Only to feel the gun press tighter against her skin. No doubt, she would have a bruise. The Colombian was forced to still as the woman took the safety off the gun…The click resonated in her head. The shot was point blank.
If Mystique pulled the trigger, she wouldn’t miss. “He’s asked that I not wipe any of you off the face of the earth yet. Unless you jeopardize things… But I do believe, that leaving any of you alive—Would jeopardize our entire operation.”, Mystique confessed without an ounce of mercy. Her yellow-gold eyes flickered between the mutants, noting the defense stance the group by the fountain took towards Toad… Noting how hesitant they were to move forward while their leader was still in her grasp. X-Men were habitually sentimental fools. “So who’s first?” Isabella forced herself to calm, fully intending on trying to use her ability against the woman…Her voice wasn’t her only way of manipulating sound waves. It was simply the most effective. She was reassured that Aurelie was standing with the group by the fountain… It wasn’t completely fool proof, but it didn’t help to have a telekinetic where guns were present.
Her eyes flickered to Leonardo—Willing him to stay out of range…To stay protected. He’d proven time and time again that it was in his nature to protect those on his team, his unit…But none of the newer recruits knew Mystique the way Bella did. It was one thing to read about her…Another to face her head on. If this was the way it was going to be… If Smurfette wanted to pump her full of holes… She didn’t want anyone else in the crossfire.
Though new presences made themselves known…And at first, she was afraid it would be more Brotherhood Members… But when they got close enough to the main level, she realized at least one of them, was an Omega—Christian. The other, Daylia… They’d spoken briefly once… But that was all it took for the songstress to remember. There was another, but Bella and she hadn't formally met...Though she could indeed place her face to the profile. Struggling appropriately, wasting time—She couldn’t help but feel a swell of relief as the Omega’s voice sounded off, firm.
She hadn’t heard Narcissa, the sun goddess was nigh impossible for her to miss—But she had heard, now that she thought of it, the X-Jet passing over head… What the hell was going on? She hoped, that Magneto himself wan't causing this much trouble. Mystique laughed at the boy that had the audacity to try and pull an ace on her… Though admittedly, he’d already gotten the drop on her… It wasn’t at all something she would ever admit. But she hadn’t counted on Xavier’s little pups having that much skill. “Do you think you can pull the trigger before I do, boy?”
“Are you willing to take that chance?”
Briefly, Mystique was distracted from a very tense situation by Pyro taking a beating from… What looked to be, a boy after Magneto’s own heart… And a hydrokinetic. Of course, the X-Men were like Baskin Robbins. All million-some blasted favors of mutancy at his disposal.
And Charles claimed he didn’t have an army. In this split second distraction— Christian, and Pyro providing her what she needed…Isabella drew her foot up and slammed her low heeled shoe into the floor… And while for a normal human, it wouldn’t have been anything but a temper tantrum—She amplified the sound waves that the action caused and they rippled viciously, cracking the marble—Causing Mystique to loosen her hold.
The songstress twisted away from with woman with a certain fluency that her heritage allowed…Hand finding Christian’s arm to pull him back with her. She silently apologized to Sidetrack if he’d gotten any of the backlash… She’d tried to make the sub sonic waves dense enough that they only affected a small area. Not to mention, that she’d ruined his shot. Without him, she’d likely not have a head on her shoulders to apologize with.
Her eyes remained on Mystique, watching as the woman recovered almost instantly…Once again things seemed to flow in fast forward, and victory, sweet freedom was short lived as a shot rang through the air—The blue skinned mutant holding the smoking gun extended towards them.
At first, Isabella thought that she’d missed—Hit air. Nothing…But the dirty white cardigan she wore suddenly blossomed red near her shoulder, and the pain came with a vengeance. The songstress stared, shocked as the red grew…Spreading. She couldn’t feel her finger tips in her right arm. Her left immediately came to press over it, and she immediately regretted the action—Swallowing a scream. To scream, would likely injure her teammates. “I’ll tell Magneto you’ve declined his invitation.”, Mystique snarled out—Before she re-leveled her gun...This time at Sidetrack.
From the smoking ruins of Abercrombie and Fitch came five mutants. Xavier, wasn’t the only one who knew how to recruit.
The first to emerge and stand at Mystique’s side was a tall, willowy brunette. Fyral. She would have been what someone might have called beautiful…If it weren’t for the fact that half of her face was marred, and seemed burned horribly. She opened her mouth to breathe, perhaps, and steam rose from it… Her eyes and skin flashed bright orange. Magma, dripped from her footsteps. It was easy to see what her mutation was.
There was a male, code named Pack, with legs that were bent entirely the wrong way. Almost like a dogs would have been—But backwards, somehow…Though still thick, and sturdy. If the magma-mutant had been tall…This creature dwarfed her. He had the head of a wolf, but the torso of muscled, furred man. Red eyes bore into the group near the fountain, though he sniffed at the air—Gaze filtering towards Isabella, hungry.
The Alpha leader would realize, dimly—In the sudden pain filled haze of her mind that he smelled the blood. He looked at her, as if she were food.
There were two females beside them, twins. Aoi, and Miu—Respectively. They looked exactly the same. Sharp, exotic angled eyes—And hair so dark it was almost blue. They simultaneously raised their hands, which transformed into blades as their eyes blackened, widening. Iridescent wings sprouted. They because less woman, and more insect with each passing second.
Last, but not least, was a boy that looked like he could have bench pressed Gideon and Wolverine—At the same time, without breaking a sweat. He was known as Brick…Though he seemed to be the most out of place. Strangely enough, he had brought orange hair and freckles—Glasses perched on his obscenely large nose. It looked as if it had been broken several times.
“Fyral, Pack, Aoi, Miu, Brick—Kill them.”, Mystique ordered, moving behind her ‘students’… They were meat shields to her, at best. Not to mention… She had more tricks up her sleeves… And one trick, that wasn’t so much a trick…But a killing machine, that reveled in making victims scream. “All of them. Except that boy.”
She pointed out Eli. Magneto would want to meet him. Toad chortled, laughing at Lexi—Turning his gaze back to Aurelie as his tongue snapped out, smacking into her shield. Telekinetic’s were annoying. “So how about now babes? All you ladies should ditch that loser,”, referring to Leonardo,” And hit up a real man.”
He straightened up for a moment, the movement fluid as he puffed his chest out.
“Me.” “Toad! Go do what we came here for!”, Mystique belted out—Watching Pyro try to scramble and recover, sputtering and coughing from all the water he’d inhaled--Holding his bleeding hand. His eyes burned into Eli, and he was already raising disagreements with Mystique. He wanted the magnetokinetic dead. The flint that lit the flame from his pack, that sat near his wrists…Making his own flame would be impossible till it dried.
Leeching some from the magma mutant, Fyral, that was left behind as she walked—He tossed the fire between his hands. Eyes finding a hydrokinetic with distaste. The five New Brotherhood members didn’t waste time. They’d been trained well. Already, they advanced on the group near the fountain…Intent on testing the strength of Aurelie. Both of the insectoid women headed towards Siren, Sidetrack, Digger, and Chameleon.. While the other three, seemed intent on breaking the invisible barriers that protected the others.
Toad disappeared to an unknown location, while Pyro guarded Mystique’s back…The blue woman looked entirely…Too pleased with herself. Isabella felt her vision swim-- Static at the corners of her eyes. Shaking her head, she tried to move her hand to hit her comm-- But growled when the hand didn't respond. Finding her voice, her lips moved at a rapid clip-- Though they made no actual sound. ~Alpha's be on your guard-- Remember, incapacitate! We aren't them. We don't kill, unless we have no other choice...Don't let them separate you. Black and Blue approach the area near the fountain with extreme caution!~
~Rogue, Wolverine, Gambit-- Mystique is here in force. 911. Stat.~
The songstress swallowed hard. Hard she ever been shot before? She'd been shot at before...Had it ever connected? Her teeth ground together as she tried to stand her ground...She didn't want to let her team down.
Not when they needed her... But blood loss and shock, was a hard thing to fight. She squared her small body, her left hand pressing over the wound as she glared-- Prepared to burst the ear drums of the two Asian mutants. To do what needed to be done.

Omega, Location: X-Jet/Political Rally
Entering the Hot Zone
Based on the response he got from Knoxx, they were unlikely to know just who they were dealing with aside from Magneto. Not exactly the answer he was hoping for, but a fair enough response. Psyche, and newly identified Covet provided a little bit of comic relief to take away from the tension, making cracks about going after The Scarlet Witch. He smiled inwardly as he appreciated the humor between the two of them. Good to know that some people could make jokes at a time like this. He liked that, and hopefully he'd do his best to see this fight through to the end. He didn't want to be taken out of commission like when they were in the Halloween World. That was a bit embarrassing for him, being taken down by a tentacled blob.
Guys have their pride right?
He didn't catch the entire message from Sidetrack, something about a guy named Quicksilver and he was coming their way. Taking some logical leaps of faith he guessed to himself that Quicksilver was another member of the Brotherhood, and he had a power related to speed. "Well that's nice to know." he said calmly, on the inside though he was pretty nervous. Granted he'd fought mutants before, hell half of his life was doing just that. But he'd fought them in cages, in backrooms, never out in the open. Never in public, too many variables crossed his mind with a situation like that.
-----
The X-Jet landed smoothly once again, and Roland was one of the last to get out. He saw the wreckage around him and realized that he was clearly in a whole new ballpark. It was one thing to have bare-knuckled brawls, it was another to fight against people who likely had been doing what they were doing for much longer than he'd been alive. Most at his age felt invincible, that nothing could touch them in any circumstance. But seeing this made Roland realize something.
He felt not only very vulnerable, but he felt like something may very well happen to him. Something bad.
He quietly walked out, taking the rear. He wanted to go ahead and head up to the front, but for right now he waited to hear orders. Solaris was right, no one wanted to die because of a stupid mistake.

Team Alpha’s Moonlight Name: Tsukino Kazuki
Ability: Barrier Creation
Location: Inside Mall
Thoughts: Cat fight?!
Tsukino felt like such a idiot when she realized that she called them by thier first names.Raine explained to her what to call her during a mission and why it is important.Tsukino waved her hand causing the barrier to disappear.Raine was right but Tsukino was upset at the fact that she had been so careless.Maybe it was because she was in the moment and was so worried that she wouldn't be able to protect them in time that she forgot about using thier codenames.But thier was no room for her to make excuses for her mistake and she hoped that she hadn't put Raine's life in danger.The guy they were fighting ran off and said called to Raine using her name as a form of intimidation. Tsukino was so disappointed with herself. It was a bone head move and she hoped she could make up for it.
“Sorry Raine. It won’t happen again.”Tsukino said worried.
She then saw Raine trying to break up a fight between two women and managed to pull one off of the other before she was elbowed in the cheek.She saw the beautiful colored electricity that signaled that Glitter was about to get serious. Tsukino knew Raine didn’t want to hurt the two women so she gave Tsukino and Varis the task of handling these fighting girls.Tsukino realized her abilities were the only one who could break the girls up without physically hurting them. Tsukino quickly swung her hand in a upward motion forming two wall like barriers in front of the ladies. Tsukino did a pulling motion with her hand causing the barrier to gently push one of the women away. “That was a warning. Don’t make me get physical with you cause I’ll show you a angry Asian.” Tsukino said with attitude to the two women with awe struck faces. Two women ran off one calling Tsukino a mutie.
“All taken care of.” She said to Raine with a smile. Although she was kind of hurt by the words of the girl’s. It reminded her of the cruel men who tried to hurt her when she was living in japan. Sometimes she felt as if peace would never come. Then she heard a explosion. “Maybe we should go check out what’s going on with the others?! It sounds like their doing some intense fighting nearby.” Tsukino said with a level of urgency in her voice.

Name: Leonardo Rossi
Codename: Renaissance Man
Location: Mall
How Could A Bad Situation Get Worse? Oh… That’s How Everyone took heed to his suggestions, spreading out their resources so that they would have a good defensive strategy if the time came for it. Eli ran off to take care of the pyrokinetic… which wasn’t exactly what Leo wanted (something about “don’t move until Bella is safe” came to mind…), but still, Eli proved to be effective over there. Leo’s main priority right now was making sure that Bella could get out of there alive… and most preferably safe. There was just… too much for him to factor in now. And he wasn’t the leader here… but then again, their leader was being held hostage and since no one else seemed to have any good ideas… Leo had decided to dish out his own.
Out of the corner of his eye Leonardo caught something… familiar. Instinctively looking in that direction, he felt his stomach drop. He recognized the girl that was pressed against the kiosk… how could he forget? She was an agent of HYDRA… and a freaking good one at that. A shape-shifter… one that was hard to track. They had met a few times over the past years… always on opposing sides. Their last fight hadn’t been kind to the both of them… Leonardo had gone into shock from loss of blood after he escaped… and spent a week in the infirmary on the Helicarrier. He could only guess that he left her battered and bruised enough to have been in a similar situation.
Eli and a hydrokinetic Alpha (Marcel) seemed to be taking care of Pyro… that was good. Especially if the hydrokinetic did his part; he could put out most of the blaze with the water from the fountain. Mystique started to speak again though, making Leonardo’s full attention snap back to the other shape-shifter. The HYDRA agent would have to wait for now… she wasn’t posing any sort of threat… yet.
Mystique was relaying a message from Magneto… typical. It was a recruitment statement… which was odd, seeing as how Magneto seemed to already have his own little army of mutants at his disposal. Even though she personally delivered the proposal, Mystique seemed to have second thoughts about it. In a way… she was right. Recruiting from the other side was always much too dangerous, in Leo’s opinion. His eyes darted to Bella for a brief moment, catching the glance she had thrown in his direction… her eyes telling him to stay away. He couldn’t nod back or anything, for fear the Mystique would catch the communication… but he could only hope that she knew that he was going to follow her orders like the good soldier that he was.
Suddenly, Leonardo noticed one of the Omegas, (he remembered him as the headless man from the Halloween incident) approaching Mystique from behind. Even though he had a gun aimed at her head, Leonardo tensed up, wanting to yell at the Omega to tell him to back off. And when he pressed the barrel of the weapon against the blue-skinned woman’s skull… Leonardo could feel his heartbeat escalate. You never get within arm’s range of a target, unless they were incapacitated or heavily restrained.
The next few moments happened so fast… it appeared that Bella was able to wrangle free and send a powerful shockwave towards Mystique… but she instantly recovered and shot Bella in the shoulder. This time, Leonardo cursed audibly, wanting to run to Bella’s aid… and perhaps punch Mystique in the head with ant strength, but then he saw the other mutants emerge from the preppy little store. They were… extremely intimidating, to say the least. A lava-manipulator, a wolf-man, a pair of flying Asians, and a ginger version of the Hulk… yeah, they were in trouble. Already Leo was trying to see who he could take on. The lava manipulator was a no-no… Dimitri should be able to handle that. The Asians? No. As much as Leo hated to admit it, he was pretty much exclusively a short-range fighter; flying wasn’t his thing. Wolf-man or Ginger Hulk would probably be the best choice. Mystique called them by their codenames and gave the kill order… minus Eli. Lucky b*****d.
Priority one: get Bella out of there. She was hit, and bleeding profusely… she wasn’t good for combat. It would only be a matter of time before hydrostatic shock set in, and she wouldn’t be able to focus. Priority two: get everyone else out. This was turning into a really… really bad situation. They weren’t outnumbered… but probably out-skilled by a long shot. It was hard to tell just what their options were. The most obvious was to just get out and get home… to be safe. The other… and rather higher-risk option… was to stay and fight… and somehow come out victorious in the end. Also… if Leonardo was anything, he wasn’t a quitter.
They were already split up into three groups, and in retrospect the odds weren’t that bad. Two on four, one on two, and then three on six. Leo liked those odds… a lot. He couldn’t estimate for the opposing side’s skill level though, so he didn’t know if it would in fact take the six of them to take down the three that were approaching them at the moment. He hoped to God it would though.
Once again, Leo’s mind raced back to try and remember the other Alpha’s powers and codenames. There had to be some sort of strategy to this… Bella said stick together. That was a good idea. As long as they could stay near the fountain, they should be in good terms. If not… there might be trouble. Leo couldn’t think of anything else to say… he didn’t have enough time to draw up a full-blown plan of taking down these guys. All he knew was that he was probably going to go for the guy named Pack. Although, he wasn’t aware of anyone else that would have the strength needed to go on par with Ginger Hulk Brick.
Stepping towards Aurelie, he spoke lowly, “Whatever you do, try and keep that shield up.” If all goes well, the three could wear themselves out trying to break the shield… and then the six Alphas could strike.

Ｃｈａｍｅｌｅｏｎ
Ｄａｙｌｉａ Ａｓｔｒａｌｌｏxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Ｔｅａｍ Ｏｍｅｇａxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Ｌｏｃａｔｉｏｎ: The mall, where all hell broke lose. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  Daylia’s chest burned slightly as she moved. She had been readying herself for another quick attack, but it never came. Instead the white haired mutant went after another in the three person group, Sidetrack. It looked like he had landed a few good shots. She heard Christians gun go off, causing Quicksilver to slow for a moment. There was a quick exchange between him and Christian, before Sidetrack lowered his gun. The other mutant had a hostage which changed the situation. Daylia felt her jaw tighten; this was not a good situation, and it completely pissed her off that he couldn’t fight fair.
Seconds later though, once Christian signaled for them to stand down, Quicksilver was off, taking the poor helpless woman with him. "Son of a b***h." Daylia muttered as she shook her head. Her eyes went back to Christian as he sent a message to Narcissa and the other Omegas. Daylia frowned. Why had Quicksilver run off, just to let the three Omegas into the mall without much of a fight? It had made no sense to her, but it didn’t matter now. They had orders and they needed to get in there and help the Alphas.
Chameleon sighed slightly as she followed the group into the now open door. They had made their way down to where all chaos had broken loose. Fire, water, screaming. Oh yes, it was chaos. Daylia hung back for a moment, keeping an eye on the newest Omega member, Digger. Of course Daylia was still new herself, but it wouldn’t stop her from trying to protect the new member. After all, they were going to be family, or at least that was how Daylia would see it.
As Daylia kept an eye on Digger, she looked around, assessing the scene before her. Though to see everything, she would need a higher vantage point, though from where she stood, she could see a store that was on fire. There was two Alphas going after what looked like Pyro, and the most recognizable of all the mutants was Mystique, who currently held the Alpha leader as a hostage. Daylia mumbled under her breath. Though soon she saw Sidetrack making his own move. Though once he got there, everything seemed to speed up,
The Songstress took advantage of the confusion that Christian and Pyro had caused. She sent the blue skinned woman back slightly, freeing herself from Mystique’s hold. Though before Bella could get far, a shot sounded off, and to Daylia it certainly looked like Bella had been hit by the angry blue skinned mutant. Daylia said again. The Songstress was injured, and it appeared the other Alpha’s were indisposed for the moment. Daylia reached out her hand and gently grabbed Diggers upper arm and began to tug. "Siren needs help." Chameleon said lowly to the other woman before trying to pull Digger with her.
Daylia didn’t let go of Megan’s arm until she was a few feet behind the Songstress. Daylia knew she didn’t want to place the other mutant in front of the Alpha leader like she was going to place herself. "Be careful and keep on your toes." Daylia then slipped off her leather jacket and placed it in Diggers hands, causing it to lose the background color as she let it go. "See if you can get a good strip to patch up Siren for the time being." Daylia said lowly. She knew the Songstress was bleeding badly, and they needed to stop it, or at least reduce it until they could get her out of there.
Out of the corner of her eye, Daylia watched as more brotherhood mutants came out of the smoldering store. Daylia frowned again as Mystique gave the order for the other mutants to kill the X-Men. Two Asian mutants began to transform as they made their way towards her group. They had wings and some sharp looking arm things. It didn’t take long for Daylia to decide to put herself between Bella and the bug mutants coming towards them, her baton extended at her side.
Daylia power was still going, but it wasn’t as strong as it could be. The background colors showed up, but it wasn’t as detailed, making everything look distorted. It would make it easier for people to follow her, but at the moment Chameleon didn’t care.

 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Team ↠ AlphaxxLocation ↠ Fountain area of the mall Tsunami was Eli's saving grace. The panic backed down a bit but he wasn't sure exactly what he could do to Pyro. The steam began to clear, and by then he was already back where his hydrokinetic partner was. "Thanks for the save.. I'm not sure what exactly I can do. But I'm gonna have to play support role for now." He whispered.
He was hopeful that Pyro's ignition system was down, but it was quickly destroyed as he sourced fire from the lava. 's**t... I don't know what to do, what can I do?' He thought to himself.
Eli closed his eyes, searched through the walls, through the floor. "We need to move. Eli said, running from the fountain. Pausing, for when Tsunami finally moved. Eli started pulling upwards, and a screeching wrenching noise could be heard, reverbrating through the floor, causing the area under and around the fountain. A few seconds later, pipes pulled up and ruptured the ground around the now destroyed fountain, and from those pipes, water came spewing out, and the fountain now lay dry and broken as it's water line was cut off.
"All yours Tsunami, I'll cover you of anybody else who might try and take you down, if you can hit the lava too any chance you get, it'll cool it and turn it into charcoal and carbon." He finished, a light headed feeling coming forth as the last move he just did was more than he was used to. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
You'll find in time
The brightest flame will slowly die
And bear the darkest night To rise
When everything that's meant to shine
Burns out before you eyes OOC ↠ simple, but effective I hope.

Omega.
At the mall. It’s all fun and games until the shooting starts. The shooting started as Megan was still trying to figure out just where to start. The gunshots presented an obvious place. It was clear that Isabella had been hit and the blue skinned mutant barked orders to have them all killed. Oh this just sounded like it was going to be a banner afternoon. Let’s see now based on her observations they had one strength based mutants a walking volcano, a pyro a pair of insectoid based and what looked like a canine based mutant. None of them looked particularly nice or mentally stable. It just kept getting better and better. Fortunately for Megan she didn’t need to figure out where to go first. As she tried to make that decision a hand closed over her upper arm and began to pull her along. Chameleon. Shaking her head to snap herself into the current present and not trying to look at the overwhelmingly chaotic bit picture of the situation Megan nodded. ”Right.” She said and caught the coat and with relative ease began to quickly and carefully shred off a piece of it. Okay now to apply it. The strip she ripped off was long enough that she could apply it with minimum risk of further injury to Isabella. What did Megan know about bullet wounds? Well if you had an entry and an exit wound you didn’t have to check to see if she had a bullet lodged in the wound still. Outside of that not much as Megan’s knowledge of first aid didn’t cover this kind of injury. ”You need to move your hand and hold still.” Was she going to be able to tie this off? It wasn’t going to be neat but it’s better than nothing. ”It’s not going to be pretty or perfect but it’s about the best I can do.” She said awkwardly tying off the makeshift bandage. It would do until they could get her out of here. With Isabella somewhat taken care of that left the menagerie of mutants that Mystique had turned loose on them. Megan had seen the look in Packs eyes and the canine was obviously going to move against the wounded first so Megan planted herself between him and Isabella. If he wanted the songstress he’d have to go through her first.

ALPHA:At the mall riot : Um yeah it's a good thing to be unbreakable..  Gideon's senses were on high alert. There were more out there he wanted to be aware of them. Though it mainly only worked for ones he had previously encountered. So new recruits unless they went for a hostile action he might miss unless they spent a lot of time with some of the more familiar scents of the brotherhood. People always picked up scents of those they are or have been around a lot. And when you like him can tell the difference between a scent on someone and their actual scent it's not so bad. And in away could prove valuable in telling potential threats from non threats. But with all the chaos and the smoke filling the air scents were muddled so sadly it wasn't something that was going to be reliable when looking for potential folks with the brotherhood. But given the sneaky nature of the actions here any others are probably hidden somewhere to be called out when needed. Blending in with the crowd wasn't hard to do especially given the chaos the place was in with the arrival of the Brotherhood. His his task in sight goal clear. Sneak up on Mystique and get Siren away from the the primary colored shape shifter. Then that's when he heard it something he hadn't heard in a long time a name he had forgone to leave his past before Xavier's behind. 'X-20' the newer folks at the academy from after his name change a couple years ago wouldn't know it. Those that did wouldn't use it at least not in a combat situation. That had him shifting his focus shifted from the task at hand. His senses searched for the source that spoke his former name. Eyes nor ears found but his nose gained a clue, a scent was found it was covered with a scent he had not smelled in many years. It was curious why one of Madame Hydra's underlings would be here. Maybe they were going to attempt to use the riot to attempt to get the drop on him. To bad they made the mistake of making themselves known by saying his former name. Though he didn't know who it truly was but he would later. Now that he had the scent the true one mixed with Madame Hydra's he could deal with the the Hydra agent later. Growling lightly in frustration to another thing to add on to all that was already going on. As his full attention was shifted back to the previous task at hand. As he didn't have to focus on the other known Brotherhood mutants there were others from the team dealing with them. The Hydra agent could be dealt with later. Once he set out on a target he would always find them. But in the earlier distraction seemed things altered quickly. Mystique said her demands seems Magneto wanted to recruit from Xavier's ranks. Which he had done in the past. He didn't know any of the newbies well enough to say whether or not they would accept the offer. Gideon had been about to offer himself up. If they let all the others go. But he was silenced as an Omega (Christian) was no behind Mystique with a gun to her head. Great things got even more complicated. Things could never just go smoothly ever. In the moments distraction that it was for Mystique Gideon saw Bella in one swift motion with aid of her abilities got herself loose and was pulling the Omega (Christian) away from the blue gun toting psycho. Gideon was to far away when the shot rang out things quieted for him as he heard the bullet hit a target. He had felt pain through there connection he shared with Siren. He hadn't sought out their connection nor had he tried to even suppress it but it felt weaker. Gideon was already in motion moving through the crowd. Not towards Siren no to tangle with Mystique before she would shoot again only that wasn't what her next move was. Nope it was to order some new recruits to deal with the Alpha's. Pausing he saw there motions he could attempt to stop the flyers but that was best left to one of the more long range combatants there were better targets out there. Namely the two more bruiser like figures of the animal hybrid and the strong looking ginger. He had to have faith in the mean time the Omega's in the room specifically Christian the one right with Bella as he had a gun could defend her. But maybe he should draw as much focus from others as he could to allow her more back up. She was likely going into shock from the would and blood loss so getting her out was a priority. And freeing up others to help make that happen well was a good idea. Not to mention unlike others he could take a beating if needed. He was designed to get back up. Adamantium bones and his healing factor saw to that. And his heightened physical prowess he was also pretty much one the physically strongest among the Xavier group inside the mall at the time. Leo probably did have the upper hand on him and Rogue well she had them both beat but she was outside at the moment. He darted forward he had been targeting Mystique and what better way to gain attention then to piss off the leader and a couple of the biggest on the other side. Using the fact that he was blended in the crowd and all the distracting actions going on around them Gideon was able to catch Mystique off guard. Normally he would of just slammed her into the ground but not this time. No he kept on moving with her gaining speed as he went crashing the both of them directly into the Ginger strongman with as much force as he could. Who in mid step wasn't able to maintain balance falling into the Were wolf like mutant. Gideon was far stronger then most probably realized as he didn't show off like some of the others when it came to their abilities. So they all ended up in a crumpled mass on the floor. Not wasting time he yelled to Leo, Aurelle and those around the fountain. "Get Siren out now!" Never mind himself being in a bad situation in taking them on. Sure they had numbers on just him and together or even individually strength probably as well. But Gideon did have the bruisers in experience Mystique on the other hand probably had more then he did. He didn't even know all that much about her other then she was a shape-shifter and the last he had seen her working with Sinister. In her normal for that might of been it in the fight for mystique but it seemed just before the impact she shifted her form to that of a bird and flew away from him and the new Brotherhood members. One good thing it meant the gun was no longer in her hands though on the bad side it meant it was somewhere around him that any one could end up getting a hold off. "I will deal with these goons. You guys help Siren........" Gideon had just finished his order to those at the fountain as Ginger through him off. Landing about ten feet away. Seemed if the mutant wanted to he could of thrown him much farther. Jumping to his feet Gideon unleashed his claws. "Lets dance freckles.....don't forget your puppy....want to make it not as unfair for you." Gideon said taunting his opponents. Yeah it was cocky but that's what it took to make sure you had someones undivided attention at times. Only real downside was he wasn't allowed to just dispatch them like he did Blob and others in his past. If he hadn't been trying so hard not to be like that. The guy who could kill someone without a second thought or feeling of remorse. He didn't want to be seen as X-20 even if his past always did seem to get thrown back in his face at times. Besides who knows maybe when this fight was done with the two might be persuaded to join Xavier's. The professor was all about giving people chances and these two were probably misguided thanks to things they went through once their powers awakened which allowed Magneto to turn them to his side of Anti Human.
