"Really? That's INANE. Most people in life don't HAVE great power, and the few that do are almost NEVER responsible with it. The people who have the greatest responsibility are the kids with NO POWER because we're the ones who have to keep everybody else in check."- Gertrude Yorkes, Runaways (vol. 2) #11
(How am I screwing it up? Just adding a twist to it and giving him a fighting chance. Who said anything about winning?)
Logan: *Thinks about his son but decides to not think about it for long* Never mind, was just attacked by someone unknown. *Turns around* How is everyone?
...Pdub's still cooler than meh. Also: Sam. Nobody is cooler than Sam. Not even Sara. For Sam is the Queen of ze cool... I must murder her. Viciously. With a panda. Also: salsa. And a side of footie pajamas.
Jen: "Huh? Oh... I was lost in thought. Wow. You did it, Honey."
*Tabby and Josh escape the Hostel and get into the main part of L.A.* *their faces, as well as the faces of several other rogue mutants and superheroes, are displayed on every screen that they pass*
~ Russia ~
Illyana: *falls unconscious* Darkchild: *hisses* "You just made me more powerful..." Mr. Minoru: "...No." *mutters something* *Darkchild is suspended in the air* *she's pierced by several swords made of light* Darkchild: *shrieks and disintegrates* *the Soulsword and the Sword of Bone are left unguarded on the floor* Mrs. Minoru: *sends the Staff of One away* *picks both of the blades up* "...We have what we came for."
~ DC ~
Natasha: *wanders through the sewers, severely wounded but still alive** Mystique didn't kill her*
~ Camp ~
*Mystique's jet lands* *they get out* Agent: "We're going to need you to leave your weapons outside." Mystique (as Adrienne): "We don't have any, Darling..." Agent: "I'm afraid we're going to have to-" Mrs. Hayes (telepathically): "We don't HAVE any weapons." Agent (in a trance): "...Proceed." *they walk into the camp's main building* Agent: "Can I help you, Miss Frost? Mr. and Mrs. Hayes?" Mystique: "Yes... We're here to release three prisoners." Agent: "Do you have clearance from Osborn?" Mystique: shows him the papers* "Layla Miller, my protegee. Phoebe Cuckoo, my niece. Elizabeth Braddock, my lesbian lover." Agent: "Alright." *turns to several other agents* "Go get me these three muties." Mystique: *smiles* "I'm sorry... What did you say?" Agent: "Go... get me... these three muties...?" Mystique: "LISTEN, Sapien... We are MUTANTS. Homo superior. If you use that term in front of one of us ever again... Well, I think you'll enjoy thinking you're a monkey, won't you?" Agent: "Y-yes, Ma'am... Mutants. Go get those MUTANTS." Mystique: "Glad you understand."
*the agents go to retrieve Layla, Phoebe, and Betsy*

Agent: *enters the Telepahic Cellblock* "Phoebe Cuckoo! Elizabeth Braddock! You're wanted by Adrienne Frost." Phoebe: "..." *stands still*
Agent 2: *walks up to Layla's cell* *unlocks it* "Well, it's your lucky day, Mutie. Adrienne Frost wants you out of here."" Layla: "Oh, does she now? Well, then... I guess you'd better take me to her." Agent 2: "No smart mouth, Mutie!" Layla: "I'd stop calling me that if I were you. 'Miss Frost' doesn't like it when people use that word... And it's not like I even AM a mutant." Agent 2: "Heh. You wish." Layla: *shrugss* "Whatever you say."
~ D.C. ~
*the Minorus teleport back with the swords* Mrs. Minoru: "...Such power." Mr. Minoru: "Yes... They surpass even your staff." Mrs. Minoru: "..." *gingerly places the swords on a table* "...They must be destroyed." Mr. Minoru: "Yes. Let's get started."
Osborn: "Simple: You do as I say."
Mrs. Wilder: ""Geoff... the Minoru's girl got out of her room. The Yorkes's daughter too." Mr. Wilder: "...Don't worry. They're powerless without their toys."
Nico: "So... we're in the White House..." Gert: "Yup... We totally need a map."
~ X-Mansion ~
Monet: *gets out a nail file and starts filing her nailss* Hepzibah: *hisses at Monet* Monet: "Oooh... Scary, Kitty Cat." Elektra: "...Am I going to have to decapitate both of you?"

Phoebe: "...We'd better go before they start blowing us up." *walks towards the agent*
Layla: *is lead to Mystique* "Hey, 'Frost'." Mystique: *smirks* "Miller." Mr. Hayes (telepathically): "Darkholme... Why are we saving this... child?" Mystique (thinking): "You'll see."
~ D.C. ~
Mrs. Wilder: "Nonetheless..." *pushes a button* (over an intercom) "All agents... Be on the lookout for a Goth, Asian girl and a pudgy, little troll woman with purple hair."
Gert: "...I always hated that woman." Nico: "Whatever. We have to move fast."
~ Sewers ~
Natasha: *climbs up through a manhole* *it leads to a hidden facility beneath the White House*

Logan: *Heads out back onto the road and gets on his bike* Lets go then, can't have more mutants getting taken in. *Drives off down the road, heading to the mansion*
~DC~ Deadpool: *Stands up and pulls up his pants* You pay me lots of money and include dozens of incredibly hot chicks and I'm in. And twinkies. And weapons. Mostly twinkies... haven't had those in a while. I do need more weapons though... with ammo. *Stares at Osborn* Continue.
Logan: *Continues to drive for awhile before pulling up to the mansion* *Gets off his bike and heads inside*
~Camp~ Jamie: *Watches Layla and Psylocke walk over to 'Frost'* What the hell? Where are they going? Agent: *Looks at him* None of your business Mutie so shut the hell up.
