John had decided to stay back with his sister and Parents while the others took care of the gaurds. Once they were all done they went back into the house and sat down.
"Regina and I have been talking about it before... the Brother are more than welcome to come back with the X-Men to our hideout. The Morlocks are very inviting. What do you all think?" John didn't know what to say or think. The X-men were had always been his rivals because of their beliefs. Hmmm... I really don't know what to think. As far as I can remember they always believed that mutants and humans should live together in peace in harmany. If these people are truly X-men. They still believe that silly nonsense even now, with everything that has happened to mutants...On the other hand they didn't seem to have to many problems taking out these men that were here a second ago. I'll have to see what these people believebefore I make my decision, John thought to himself. When he finally looked up his saw his wife and children were looking at him. All he could do was shrug his shoulder, and shake his head, as if to say 'I don't know'.

Petra nodded, "I can understand your reservations. The X-Men and Brotherhood haven't always been friends."
"But I can assure you, that right now, in this time... our goals aren't entirely different. We want a better future for mutants. Peace... would be nice, but mutant freedom at the moment is better..." Petra sipped her coffey, "Did I still want a peiceful coexistance? Yes, with some people. Not all homo sapiens are bad. Did I have a problem killing those men? Not entirely, they would have put a bullet in my head."
"But its your call. If you want a temporary place so you can find a new Brotherhood home, the tunnels are open. If not, then I hope we all work together again in the future. I like your team."
Dazzler walked back into the living room after leaving to make some communications with the underground, "They'll have a team here to help secure our area in the morning. They are also sending Nightcrawler and Lila Cheny in to take you all to your respective locations. They have also cleared X20 to travel with you."

Regina didn't say anything after Petras little speach. She was pretty sure that Pyro still didn't trust her. Not after she switched sides almost immediately after joining the brotherhood. She still held the beliefs that humans and mutants would never get along, but she doubted that Pyro even cared about that. She was timid when he last saw her. She was stronger now and held more control over her powers than before.
Jenny watched everything going on, eventually settling on watching a happy reunion. She wondered why she had never met her father...

OOC: Sorry about not posting that often school is starting soon and I just started at my new job plus my comp is on the fritz.
IC:
Cero wathed a few of the other mutants take on the men to gauge their skills. "Not bad" He said to himself. and before they where all finished off he took down a few of the scared runaways so they couldn't report back to there boss. "Hum for such highly trained men with hi tech weapons they sure are hopeless." Cero says as the job was over and made his way behind the others toward Dazzlers place.
Cero stayed outside the house keeping an eye on things even though he was pretty sure they would have no other problems. 'That was too easy of a fight even though their where alot of mutants here. But I have seen normal humans that could of put up a better fight alone.' He thinks to himself as memories from his days at hydra training facilites and labs. 'Even the weakest ones I saw at Hydra could do better.' Thinking to himelf again.

Michelle stood at the edge of the town. She'd heard of mutants hiding somewhere in this city but she didn't expect to find them. In fact, she didn't care to. The only thing mutants would do is bring trouble and she didn't need any more of that.
She looked around as soon as she heard the rushing of engines from above. before she could hide, she was surrounded by three sentinels.
"Unregistered mutant detected. Do not resist. You are under arrest."
She could only smile as the electricity built up inside her. "Don't worry, with your electrical equipment, there will be little resistance." With those words, she released a bolt of electricity that jumped from one sentinel to the next. the energy fried thier cpu's and left nothing more than piles of metal and melted circuitry.
Collecting her bag from the ground, she brushed her hair back into place and calmly walked away.

ooc: yay!! a new member, greetings and welcome to the board ThunderGoddess! Unfortunately all our members are off and away, but hopefully we'll get them moving toward the city soon.
IC:
Regina looked to Petra. "We need to get moving soon...That may be the last for now. But sooner or later they're going to send Sentinals our way and those won't be so easy to deal with. Besides, I'd like to get back and see about joining the morlocks."
"And going home... I want some clean clothes and a shower..." Jenny almost whined but kept it to just a slightly annoyed comment.

ooc: I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack twisted
ic: Selina had kept her mouth well and truly shut ever since they had made it relatively safely back to the house. Too many new 'recruits' had joined up at once and it was making her paranoid. Her eyes constantly shifted around from person to person, just to make sure they weren't about to morph into a sentinel or beast from Otherworld while their backs were turned. Dramatic? maybe but considering the world they were living in, nothing was beyond the imagination. She was however well aware that there was a fine line between being overly cautious and offensive - Selina didn't want to be the one to reinstate war between mutant groups, especially when the Brotherhood and X-men were beginning to get so close.
".. for such highly trained men with hi-tech weapons they sure were hopeless" It would have been easy to spout a remark about cockiness, idiocy and over confidence at that point, but Felidae bit her lip once again and simply nodded. If they were going to be travelling together - perhaps even working together in future resentment wasn't going to help anything along.
"Oh I do so LOVE the smell of Sentinels in the morning!" she said as they began to return into the house, shifting back into a human being for the first time in days. "A nice hot shower would be great too, if you can find one" she added as an afterthought.
Jenny shot her a slightly confused look, "but you're a cat.. sorta. Can't you just lick yourself clean"
Selina grinned "I can, but the guys all think it's a major turn off when a vixen like myself starts coughing up hairballs."

OOC: Thundergoddess, I don't recall speaking with you in PM. Can you message me your character info? I need to approve it before you can start playing. The information you need to send to me is in my introductory posts.
Welcome to Jharviss. He is a new Brotherhood member.
IC:
Petra nodded to Regina, "I agree that we need out of here as soon as possible. The Underground teleporters should be here in no time to take us home. I'll have them drop us off in one location... and then its up to the Brotherhood to decide where you want to go."
Within the next few hours, the Underground remained true to its word. Lila Cheny and Nightcrawler returned to take the crew out of the safehouse. Dazzler was also met with some mystics who were going to put a new safety net up onto it.
it only took a few moments, but everybody was back in Bayville.
"Now, why didn't they teleport us there in the first place?" Petra sighed after rubbing her still soar shoulder from Dead Man's Walk.
"Now, what fun would that have been?" Selina grinned as they all looked around teh dead silent ally. THeir teleporting friends made no time in leaving this place.
"Okay, Brotherhood, the call is yours. If you want to go your seperate ways, I entirely understand and I hope we can work together again."
--------------------
ELSEWHERE...
"Valerie Cooper, It's good to see you again. Ready to open shop?" A familiar male voice stepped into some quiet offices. A blonde woman looked up with a startled grin.
"I didn't think they'd succeed," She shook his hand with a straight smile.
"They're better than we thought, dear. I think we owe them something... and need to keep them on our payroll."
Val nodded, "It's a dangerous operation you run, Raven. Just hope you never get caught or this whole thing can blow up."
"Firstly, don't ever refer to me as that. Secondly, if the HSSA didn't figure it out... nobody will. Now, let's start making phone calls. Mr. Dole has alot of people to talk to. Elections are coming around again and my supporters need their voice."

OOC: Sorry about not posting wery often but lots of issues have come up in my life right now and I will post as often as I possibly can.
IC:
Cero looks around at the morlock tunnels when they arrived there, his sense of smell was almost driven crazy at the sudden number of different smells. "Hum for an underground home this place isn't a bad set up." He says while checking out the area and the different mutants around. "Man I hope I can get used to this place after living on my own for so many years." Now Cero looks around for Murcury to ask if she would take him to Logan. Even though he could find Logan easily it was better to have her take him to Logan.

Echo was happy to be back in the tunnels. She'd always been most at home underground, or in the city. Anywhere with too many trees... she didn't know trees very well. Couldn't hide among them.
The mission was over now, and she was a little uncomfortable with that. She had no idea what to do with her time. She'd already taken inventory...
so she hovered around Petra, waiting to see if there was something that needed doing.

Selina walked back and forth from pace to place whilst the others "ummed" and "aahed" about who would go where and do what with whom and when. It was all rather bothersome, she would have preferred for everyone to go their separate ways, then maybe drop by for a visit at a later stage.
"This is taking forever" she groaned as she paused for a moment to scratch the back of her left ear.
"I know, but some people are a bit indescisive" her friend replied
"Well they better make their damned minds up before I do it for 'em" she muttered.
Petra simply laughed at her irritation, she was trying to be mildly humourous but even when she wasn't Selina was laughed at. She grinned sheepishly for a minute, blushed and then returned to her pacing.
"Ok everyone enough is enough, the X-men are moving out. Those of you that are coming - this way, those of you that aren't - look out for yourselves and stay out of trouble" Hardly the most heartbreaking of a split, but Selina was short on words, she wanted to get back underground unseen and as swiftly as possible.

OOC: Since I need to take Petra out of the picture... I'm going to jump ahead to the X-Men going back to the tunnels.
IC:
Rest. Finally... some real rest. Petra lay under the covers in a dark shared room. There was some other Morlocks in it. She didn't rank high enough on the food change to warrent her own room.
Startled in her sleep, she quickly pulled from the nearest metal sort and formed two daggers in her hands. But then the metal almost burned her skin. She recognized it immediately. The Soul Sword... the only thing that Petra could not control. Her heart skipped a beat. Aunt Illyana was back... she had been MIA for years.
"Illy-" Petra started before Illyana hushed her.
"We can't stay long."
"But - what?" Petra didn't understand. Why couldn't they? Was there trouble with the tunnels?
"I need your help. We have to go someplace other than here."
"What about-" Petra started.
"Your parents will understand, trust me. Besides, time is a funny thing. If we're lucky, you'll be back by breakfast." Illyana dragged her up to her feet and handed her her uniform. Petra slowly put it on confused as to what was going on.
"But-"
Illyana shushed her again not wanting to wake anybody. And then a light filled the room and they disappeared. Petra looked around at their surroundings. It looked like a very large cavern... not a cavern that she ever saw. Then she looked at Illyana... her appearance was much younger that Petra remembered. She looked at least her own age if not younger.
"What's going on?" Petra asked feeling like she was in a dream.
"Well... you see, I am the queen of Limbo. I was given this position once I took up the Soul Sword... when Piotr was away, I was taken and trained on my mystic abilitiise here... and well, the short of it is that my throne is being attacked. If I am not here to keep order, then the new ruler is going to be very destructive to your world..."
"Uh yea... and you expect me to believe this?" Petra pinched herself. it hurt.
"No, but you will... besides, where do you think I disappear to all the time?"
"But you're so young..."
"Yea, time is a funny thing. I've crossed paths with myself many times and my older self to me to find you because this really is a family affair."
"What about my parents? Why will they understand? They don't eve know about this place."
Illyana shook her head, "They do, they've been here... and they will be. So they will understand when you disappear because they already know it will happen. See how that works."
Petra had to agree that made sense, "But isn't it wrong for them to meet me... a child that may or may not happen."
"No, its not. There are many possibilities and branches in time. Besides, you're under an oath not to tell them anything about their future except that you are their child. We don't want them... well, your mother, trying to do anything stupid to change the world."
Petra shrugged thinking that wasn't as easy as Illyana suggested, "Okay, but please tell your older self to come home when this is over."

OOC: O.O I'm sorry!! I'd made a post before but I didn't know it hadn't showed up on the guild!!! sweatdrop sweatdrop Someone's gonna have to update me on where we are so I can make a good post. I'll make a small one now, so as to keep the story going. Again, sorry!! sweatdrop sweatdrop
IC: I really don't know what to dp about this, John thought as and the others followed the X-men. I could try to work with these new X-men. They X-men don't seem to be as "Nobel" as the group I use to fight with...but then again, with everything that's happened they still seem to be under belief that humans and mutants can work together and live together. Yeah right. Like that'll ever happen. And to top it all off there's Regina. It's taking alot of concentration just to keep myself from setting the girl on fire. Just look at her! I mean, I tried to make her welcome and she say thank you how!! By leaving!! And she didn't even have enough of a back bone to tell that she didn't want to be with the brotherhood anymore!!! Frustrated and angry, John reached to turn on his flamethrowers, but stoped himself. This is exactly what I mean. I can't even concentrate. Well for right now I guess I should just say yes until I know how much has changed within the X-men. I'll make my decision then. John finally looked up. He hadn't realized where they were going. "Excuse me," he called," I've finally decided that it would be a good idea for the two teams to stick together for the time being. Sorry I've taken so long to make a decision, but my mind kept on wondering off onto another subject. So please...lead the way" Well lets hope this works out. Hopefully they won't say or do anything that'll make me act crazy....I don't need help with that, John thought to hmself as he and the others followed the X-men
