says to ALL: *Alex was enjoying the hot days of summer, down in the beating heart of the city this fine Friday evening. His mutant power soaking up the solar energy during the long hot season which made him more energetic, generally agreeable to be around. So he tried to see who wanted to hang out and get into trouble tonight, meet in the park, take the town by storm from there, the night was ours for the taking! He texted around, any of the x-crew down for a city raid? Daz and her hip self got any good raving wild underground parties she can get us into! Surely someone was alive and up for some fun in this town of endless possibilities for finding some good chaos to enjoy!

says to I N C A N D E S C E N T : forceposts us to being somewhere cool, enjoying friendship and discussing cute boys when her phone buzzes. She checks it and crinkles her nose, then looks up at you* Do you want to meet some people? *she doesn't really elaborate - unsure if SHE wants to meet up with Alex and whoever else herself. If it was Kurt and Kitty, sure! But Alex Summers?

says to .: Your X-Girlfriend :. : Yes, we had a girl's day out and Istrypso is learning more and more about being a resident of Earth! At least she can pass for a human physically. We roller skated, had hotdogs and now we are having drinks in a bar. The alien realizes she doesn't have to be 'on' all the time. She does have a decent job and makes a living outside being a galactic warrior. You really are a good friend and she makes an effort to be one too. Your phone rings and she doesn't know who this Alex Summers is so she will be going with a clean slate. "You do not seem excited for this Ali.." She grins cheerfully with a little mischief. "Why not.." She gets up to go with you.

says to ALL: *It started with a wind. Pushing in from the north against the usual southern summer currents. A shift in the natural order, the air seemed pause then change direction as if nature itself had held it's breath a moment then turned to flee. The disturbance whipped up winds from the heights of the grand skyscrapers of NYC, whipping down through the concrete alleys to blow a sudden gale through the streets. Trash blown around, people bracing against the unexpected and strange wind. Then another change...hail? Though the broiling height of summer was all around the city, a tinkling of hail fall started to sound throughout the city. The little bits of ice flicking off the window facades of the tall buildings, ricocheting down to street level and the people below. An interesting summer curiosity that caused some to smile, pick up the bits of small ice as they started to accumulate on benches and cars. Then a smash broke the reverie. A much bigger chunk of ice smashed into a parked car. Another crashing loudly into the lake in central park and sending up a splash across half the park. More started to fall, crashing into streets, rooftops...into offices smashing through high class windows. The larger pieces of ice proved less whimsical than the delicate little bits that had begun the storm. The larger chunks, once settled...cracked, shattered like breaking glass...opened to reveal odd spider like creatures within that shook and began to skitter forth. The size of racoons or small dogs, the creatures recovered from their frosty descent and moved toward the nearest humans to begin killing. The swarm had waited above, high in the atmosphere, until nightfall had fallen on the east coast. After reforming from their decimation in the space battle months past up in the peculiar astroid base, they re-phased back in tune with our reality, and focused once more on earth. Now the swarm had begun to filter down, falling from the heavens and drawing down the cold upper atmosphere winds with them. More falling from above every minute.

says to .call . of . the . siryn: *Looking over at you Alex begins to second guess his plans for the evening. Did anyone -really- want to be out with friends when they could b somewhere, alone, with a hot girlfriend like YOU? Hmm. He grinned, walking through the park with you, waiting to hear from Daz and the gang. he gave your butt a slapp when no one was looking as we walked along the path. He was about to have a lewd comment when the winds whipped up oddly...followed by the light hail...and then a BOOM in the lake, with us just on the border of the wide splash zone, he tries to throw an arm over you for cover as we get splashed. Then the screaming as people closer to the lake see the creature clambering out. Other screams rising on the streets outside the park* Well, I did say the City always had something more interesting than upstate cooking. Guess we're about to find out. *He clenches a fist as it pulses, sending out a bassy thrummmmm and energy wave as he Havok's-On*

says to I N C A N D E S C E N T : she already has regrets. Every time she meets up with the X-Men, something weird and dangerous happens. At least hanging with Kurt and Kitty are worth the effort - does she endanger herself and you to keep company with Alex Summers?* I'll tell you on the way...*roller skates toward Central Park, telling you a bit about Kurt, Kitty, and the X-Men on the way* OH SNAP! *Ali careens to the side as a large chunk of ice fell on a parked car near the park's entrance. She hits the wall and twirls around, grabbing your hand and dragging you into the Park*

says to .: Your X-Girlfriend :. : She has read about the X-Men and knows they are mutants with special gifts. Istrypso would by now know a few names and what they can do but you're the only one she really met. It is pretty hard to endanger the alien, she is not overly worried about her own well being. It is others she thinks about. Her race were protectors by nature. Listening about the X-Men, we head to the park and she can hear something falling from the sky long before we see anything and she knows the planet experiences hail even in summer. However, that one is unusually large. It startles you and she looks to the sky just as you take her hand pulling her to the park. "Are you alright? What am I hearing right now?" She can hear...them. But she doesn't know what they are. Her normally gentle brown eyes flash a pale icy blue a moment but no..not yet. She waits to see what the situation actually is first. Right now, we should move to safety and make sure anyone in the park is safe..they are not though, she can hear people screaming.

Alex said he and Theresa were in the park by the lake, so that's where she headed... having to dodge out of the way as another giant ice slab slams down nearby and shatters. This time releasing giant spider creatures? Oh, FFS. She knew she should have ignored his text. EVERY TIME. EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. Ali give you a hard nudge with her elbow and gestures at the creatures, though she doesn't speak, lest she draw their attention...then turns and skates promptly in the opposite direction.

says to I N C A N D E S C E N T : *The wave spreads to two fronts. Enough of the sidri hunters landed, indelicately as it was, now they began to move, hunt. Skittering about the city, slashing through innocent bystanders with zeal. They were after blood it seemed, eager to release it from human prey. Though these hunters were smallish, the people were too scared at the alien appearance, the ferocity of their attacks to put up much fight against the first wave. A few trailing down the streets in the direction toward Daz and Stargirl, chasing closer. One leaping with a good-distance spider pounce toward you, claws outstreched as it went for a face hugger slash attach. In the park the Lake monster had splashed ashore and torn a few people apart, hisssing and rushing at the x-men there generating the power signatures.
The second front was above, up in the sky more fell, bigger. Crashing into the towering buildings. Smashing through glass. Bigger hunters falling, some crash in one side and out the other of the tall buildings, developing long trails of flame that light up the night sky as they rain down and explode to the streets where they land. The sky on fire, damage crashing above, hunters below eagerly slashing along as they hunt*

says to ALL: *since his escape from SHIELD, Magneto has been laying low in Asteroid M, figuring that it was best not to draw too much attention to himself...he's been studiously repairing the asteroid's systems and making it as habitable as possible, preparing himself for a lengthy stay....he of course makes the occasional foray planetside, as well as monitoring things with various scanners....which is how he noticed the strange atmospheric disturbance forming over the city....it's hard to pinpoint its exact origin, but as he taps into one of the video feeds to which he has access, he draws in a sharp breath, recognizing the creatures from their infestation here....if nothing else, that is a situation that bears closer investigation, though he'll leave it to the self-described "heroes" to deal with the actual fallout....he steps through the airlock and promptly flies down to observe the carnage more personally, doing nothing to conceal himself....the people on the ground have much more pressing matters to take their attention*

says to .call . of . the . siryn: *Alex punched the air in front of him, blasting out the cosmic energy to burn through the one that had emerged from the lake as it tried to rush us. He growled louder, focusing more energy as he burned the thing to cinders after a few moments concentration. Still more were coming from the streets around us, landing from above in the park. He looked up as buildings started to get smashed, catch on fire* * Shit, we really need more flyers on this team. *Where was angel when you needed him? Not that Warren would be able to do much about these plummeting alien doom pods, but it would be fun to see his wings get singed up in all that chaos. he looked for the next one to send a blast of his power into, then another and another* Can you even see where they're coming from?

says to .: Your X-Girlfriend :. : "Yes. And their assailants too. They sound like.." Maybe once she sees one, she will know what they are, she is from outer space -- but are they from the same area she was born in? Unlikely. So when one hatches from the ice, the alien doesn't recognize it. You elbow her and where are you going?? "Ali.." She says this almost laughing because she cannot believe you just left her here. Just like that. Istrypso is not angry though, she sighs. "Okay.." Obviously she is not doing this in her street clothes, she just got this pretty blouse! Her gold armour forms over her from somewhere (haven't thought of how yet lol) covering her from head to toe, a gift from the one who brought her here and she steps forward. The creatures are going to overwhelm everyone, there is strength in numbers.
There is no point attempting to take them out individually, we have to take them all out at once or at least several in each strike. She walks forward and The one coming for her face, she backhands it out of the air sending it crashing several feet away shattering it. Looking ahead, she can see the X-Men in battle doing what they can to keep that larger one at bay. Right now she needs some attention, her gold armour stands out for sure and she moves right in the middle of the park where any Sidri can see her out there alone. Pulling out her long gold tether, she deftly whirls it, the glowing light itself drawing more attention, but she is knocking several of the Sidri out of the sky the tether slicing through them, striking them so they fall. She even takes to the air drawing more of them to her if she can. She is waiting. See if they come this way. "Come as close as you like.."

A small horde skitters up behind them and Theresa takes care of them by sending them tumbling back with a screech, bits and pieces of them breaking off* But WHY are they coming? *well, that was probably an obvious answer too - REVENGE. In between vocal blasts, Theresa is trying to figure out a way to take care of this that doesn't involve them being blamed in any way shape or form. She just happens to look up, to verify that they are indeed coming from UP, and sees Magneto hovering up there, all lurkity. Good, he can take the blame then.

says to I N C A N D E S C E N T : she's glad you're almost laughing at getting left because she wasn't leaving you! She just assumed you'd follow and also you are more indestructible than she is, so she needs to get out of the way. Ali, who will one day eventually learn to use her powers combatively skates around, herding some of the park bystanders together to huddle up so she can put a lightshield up around them. She did that here in the park before actually, with you! Hmmm, maybe it wasn't the X-Men's fault after all? She glances back to make sure you're ok, catching sight of Magneto floating around overhead.* No, this is totes their fault. *saves people while the real heroes fight monsters*

says to I N C A N D E S C E N T : *The Sidri hunters began to organize more coherently after crashing to earth and spreading around the city. Some still slashed at people, though they seemed to have little interest in consuming or continuing attacks until death. Just slashing and spreading blood. Swarming out as they hunted...for something. The air battle was joined as you Stardust flew up, tethering destruction through their ranks. Cadres of Sidri began to find each other and combine. Melding together, going from individual racoon sized spiders, merging into bigger horse sized monsters. A mixed gang of bigger and smaller Swarm up toward you. Drawn by the power, the glow of you. A few blast energy beams of great power and heat from the single eye to try and hurt you, push you in the air. The swarm comes at you in a great host of sizes, numbers like an angry hornets nest seeking to grab and claw and cut at you. The pincers slash and slash but cannot break the powerful alien armor and skin. Big ones try to grasp you to pin you. Smaller ones break apart even smaller to insect size and swarm your head. Their feelers trying to pry into your mouth, slithering around past lips as they grasp and lick at your tongue with their small insect probes
Below there was still no shortage of other Sidri, the ground forces swarmed in an every mightier host as the hail from up above still rained down. Some combining to make bigger sidri, these focusing on stronger power signatures as they sought whatever they were after. Bigger spider alien beasts charge at Dazzler, Siryn, Havok, any heroes that register with energy being used against them. A few finally win past the sonic scream shield of Syrin, sinking probing razor sharp pincher into her thigh to draw blooood*

says to .: Your X-Girlfriend :. : You know what? She thinks you are a hero too. Why? You are getting everyone to safety. Just because you are not as powerful as others, does not make you less. That makes you a bigger hero. So no she doesn't think you left her because of anything bad. Besides, if you wanted, she could help you with combat, she is well equipped to teach you how to use what you have to do great things. You've done a lot for her already.
The Sidri are coming at her but then they begin to combine into larger creatures. "Shit.." She learned that word from Ali of course and she uses it now. They cannot penetrate her armour or her flesh but their powerful energy blasts jostle her and the smaller ones attempt to get inside her. This is very disorienting and she spits a few of them out of her mouth and like bullets, they are now projectiles. She needs space if she is to do what she plans. The tether whips about hitting anything in range, Sidri slam into her and larger ones grapple with her. She has to wrestle them away and she begins moving much faster lashing out with her long arms and legs. She rubs at her face as a couple of them go for her eyes pushing at her eyeballs. The alien may be too powerful for them but they are working together to try and bring her down and doing all they can to make sure she can't go anywhere. Istrypso throws a horse sized one into the swarm trying to break their organization and her eyes start to glow this blue white. Whirling around, she lashes out with the tether hopefully creating the space she needs. If so, they would all get the full force of what is to come. Outstretching her arms, one in front of her, the other behind, she brings her wrists together, the bracelets reacting and heated energy erupts around her in a large radius. She does it hard enough that it doesn't just push and burn, it just incinerates.

says to I N C A N D E S C E N T : *The swarm tries to adjust against the growing opposition. Being slashed, cut, mutilated out of the sky and streets by the magnetic storm of projectiles, the sidri spurt black alien blood and wail. Single eyes lighting up as they randomly flare optic beams around trying to incinerate the flailing debris that harmed so many of their number. The ones swarming Stardust get pushed back by the bracelet smash, the shockwave spreading large and small back away from her. They did not try to counter or return, but fled off. Their taste of her saliva seeming to sate whatever drive that had brought them to her. She was not their prey. The now hundreds of bleeding and sampled humans below were not their prey. The magnetic man above,...possibly. Sidri swarmed and combined as they fell from the sky to make bigger forms, whales that flew in circles above the city now, wearily eyeing magneto as they planned a charge. The swarm in the park formed up again, and passing Siryn and Havok again one lashed at Alex's naked back as he tended to Theresa.
Suddenly every Sidri in and above the city stopped. Freezing as if paused. Calculating...Calculating....ATGCTAGGC...error...error...mutation...unidentified gene...glitch/override ....acceptable match. Contain! Then every one of the swarm turns to rush toward Alex and his position in the park. The sidri in the streets leave all the bystanders alone and rush through streets and alleys and over small buildings toward the park. The huge sidri leviathans in the air slowly turn, ignoring Magneto and Stardust and diving down toward the park. Those closest already swarm Havok, covering him head to toe as they grip, clamp down, seek to immobilize him*

The city is shaken by a bellow of rage and frustration sent up by all of the assembled horde of the Sidri still alive. Then the ground rumbles as a small earthquake seems to vibrate the area. The disturbance in the ground was a reaction to something greater in the sky, pushing at the atmosphere and shaking the city. A huge black cloud formed above, broiling and rolling angrily as if pushed ahead of a legion of demons. The black cloud was shot through with occasional glimpses of angry orange fire, bright white bolts of lightning. Then the cloud began to give way, revealing that which it had heralded from above. The massive mother ship come down, looming over the city, already covering a near quarter of the massive sprawling metropolis that was NYC. All over the world similar massive capital ships appeared from the abyss of space, and descended over other major cities. In every hemisphere, every continent, the giant wicked ships from beyond the stars settled into their positions above the great cities of man. A message was blasted out across the radio spectrum: "Sidri have located lawful contracted prey. Corsair protocol engaged; Surrender target/like-match to Sidri.*A mug-shot like brief video/picture of Alex was sent out, identifying data they had scanned in his blood. The brief video glitched in the 3rd second, almost revealing another face, but then re-solidifying as Alex..

A few hours after the retreat from the last battle, he gave the x-men the slip and made his way back into town. He was angry, charged up to an unstable degree and was eager to do something dangerous. One of his trademark hot headed actions that rarely made things better. He drove back into the city, looking for a tall building with a rooftop with a nice clear view of the massive ship shadowing over NYC. These alien motherfuckers wanted to come here and mess with him, well, it was time to show them what he could do! He could take this ship out no problem, without even putting his friends in danger!*

says to ..( { [H A V O K] } )..=: to her deep chagrin, it had taken Theresa a few hours to realize that Alex wasn't at the Institute. But to be fair, she had been kind of busy and assumed he had gone to the Danger Room to work out some of his pent-up energy. By the time she figured it out, she hoped it wasn't too late. Cerebro had found Alex and Kitty (??) was piloting the BLackbird as they winged to his location. Cloaked, of course, though these space aliens probably have technology to see past that, Kitty nevertheless lands the Blackbird as close as possible, on a rooftop nearby that is big enough to hold the jet. Theresa is the first one out, running to the very edge of the roof and shouting to Alex. Hey! her mutant power is uniquely appropriate for this particular action!* Oi, Alex, ye eejit! What're ye doin'?

Alex waved you off, walking closer to the edge of his rooftop, toward the direction the massive capital ship was hovering in the sky* Stay back! I'm handling this! *Lousy space vermin attack us up near Astroid M a few weeks back, follow us home, attack the whole planet, because they have some weird hard on for him? Well if they want him, here he comes! Alex clenched his fists, planted his feet firmly. His whole body flexed like a power lifter hefting up a few tons of weight. His fists at his hips, moving up his body to his chest then THRUST forward as truly massive burst of his mutant energy exploded before he could be stopped. He had been charging for hours, focusing his rage, his frustration, his hatred for these alien things. It had honed his mind to a new nirvana of clarity and purpose. His power had always been half a curse, near uncontrollable, dangerous. Now he reached to some deep well he never knew he had and unleashed power no one had ever seen from him. The sky light up. The huge wavy havok energy slashing through the air at the speed of light and FOOSH! Hit the massive ship over the city. And miracle of miracles, it hit, and lanced clean through, energy blasting from bottom to the top of the ship at an angle, causing entry and exit explosions, debris and fire to flare from both sides of the ship! That's good! Right!
Then the ship began to move....hovering back this way even as it burned. A loud signal shrieking out. Summoning other ships from around the world to this location. This ship picked up the rooftop, a huge light flashed down upon it, illuminating Alex brightly. Alex seemed stuck, like a fly in amber*

But instead, Theresa starts running, leaping across from her rooftop to the next one, trying to get to Alex before they do whatever they're getting ready to do. She looks back, seeing you hovering nearby* What are ye waiting for? Get him! *barking the command to Magneto, not really caring if he takes offense. Why isn't he doing something? Can't he like.... pull Alex out of there or something? Is there even anything metal on Alex?*

Just a moment after the beam lit Alex up, it began to pull him rapidly, swooshing him suddenly ahead of Magneto's attempted cocoon. Alex flashed through the air at wildly increasing speed, pulled by the beam into a access bay used to launch smaller Sidri ships from the massive ship, not far from the still burning hole he had blasted into the underside. Alex disappeared inside and the ship seemed to be content with that. Thunder boomed through the air, heralding the approach of more ships, not visible yet but closing in quickly*

Don't let that ship leave.* though if Alex's havok energy couldn't permanently cripple the ship, nothing they have on board the Blackbird will either.

The prize in hand, the Sidri gear up to leave. A few fighters lingering to harry you and the jet with their laser blasts. Final orders transmitted, new co-ordinates sent to all the ships around the world to withdraw from atmosphere and warp out to reassemble at the new target. They decide to leave this ship behind, the magnetic one seems to like it, and Alex had blown holes in it and it was operating at less than optimal production. And so they just...let it go.

It isn't until a few minutes later that Theresa begins to get suspicious - why would they just abandon their mission when they obviously had the upper hand?

says to .call . of . the . siryn: *So advancing our daring heroes along, the derelict space ship offered up no resistance as the mutants flew their ship up and docked with it. It was a huge ship, the size of a human city. Seemingly endless avenues sprawling out for miles and miles from the docking bay. The Sidri were all gone, dead, hibernating, fled on other ships, anyone's guess. The good news was the ship was seemingly empty, passive, and still powered. The lights were on, systems still buzzing along. Locating command was simple enough, the ship was advanced, command centrally located. Forge managed to get us access into the system, set up a translation buffer so we could understand the system. Then the team went to work, Theresa being the responsible one leading the spearhead to go after Alex, Forge and Kitty tasked with getting control of the ship, whoever else may be along given various tasks. Kurt served as a porter, teleporting around the big ship as needed to move this or that. Following Magneto or Theresa around as they plotted. Presumably she had talked Magneto into helping out and trying to seal the big ol boom hole Havok had punched through a part of the ship? There was nothing a hardy band of mutants couldn't do, when working together with their fantastical powers!*

says to ALL: *Magneto hadn't needed much convincing to assist with the repairs sufficient to make the craft spaceworthy; a threat against one mutant was a threat against us all... thankfully the material that the ship was comprised of bended to his powers easily enough, and in the void of space it could be cold-welded, forged together into a solid piece as the molecules of the broken fragments lose track of which piece of the metal they're part of... he has not, to this point, been active in formulating a plan, though, staying mostly to the periphery of that effort, though why that might be, he keeps his own counsel*

says to .call . of . the . siryn: Kitty is in the control central of the ship. Several notices are going off and she checks them as fast as she can while still working to get familiar with the ship’s control. She notices when the repair is completed and the warning alarm for that area swaps to indicate pressure re-establishing itself. “…good…” Magneto finished his task. The others are off doing others as well. Forge left to go to the check on the engine, or whatever that powers the ship and work from there. Another indicator goes off. She turns to check on it, hoping there wasn’t another hole to plug. She’s surprised that it wasn’t that at all. At first she wonders if the translator is working properly because would the aliens be that stupid? She verifies, no. It’s working properly. She notifies Theresa. “Siryn, you might want to get everyone back up here. I think I found where they are heading.”

It takes her a few moments, but she pulls up a star chart. A few buttons later, a red blip shines. “According to their own message to their fleet, right there.” A few buttons later… “I think I can get us there in… “ She quickly verifies the calculations. “…six hours. About a half a hour behind their last ship by my calculations.” It takes a few more keystrokes before she turns to the others belting in. “I THINK I have the autopilot engaged. Theresa you just need to start it with the square blinking button on the console in front of you.” Kitty will head to take a seat close to Kurt. Will Magneto make it to a seat before Siryn engages the autopilot and we fling off into space? Will Istrypos catch up in time to go with us? Will Alison find a suitable place to buy new clothes and makeup? One can only hope!

The coordinates in the ship indeed having followed along the last orders of the Sidri aliens as they had left, flashing out the coordinates to the fleet that Kitty had found in this ships computer. The coordinates reached, the view coming into focus on sensors and view screens now....a very busy system centered around a gargantuan hub space station. It was a busy place, traffic was thick in the system, thousands of ships zipping about from the station, coming and going from the system, flying out to the asteroid belts or the few planets for mining, or just mingling about on their own business. The massive space station was sending out it's signals to the system. Identified as "Helicon" starbase, a free hub not under control of any of the major powers (at the moment) It was blasting out a string of commands for Shiar, Kree, Skrulls, etc etc on proper etiquette and what would not be tolerated in the station if a ship were to doc. Another signal suddenly taking precedence , a warning Klaxon that shrieks loudly, proximity alert, approach, another ship in the traffic was drifting too close, collision imminent. Then another alarm, another ship from a different direction also on an intercept.

It sends a gargly growly message over coms, in some strange language that doesn't make sense, but for the anger. Fortunately it doesnt try again, but moves off. The ships had not been attacking, the arrival of the very large ship in the system, not quite where it should have been, had caused a rukus in the traffic. The other ships in the area had adjusted, giving the newcomers a wider birth since they seemed to be flying like they were three canters deep into the antillian moon-wine. Then a new beeping. A more pleasant beep beep. Not an attack alert, not a proximity warning klaxon. Simply a hail on one of the main regular use interstellar channels. The ship picks it up, automatically going through the motions. It patches the call through from system control, hailing from the big space station. Upon the view screen a blobby, red colored, tentacled thing with big eyes up on wobby stalks protruding from it's head appeared. It warbled and choked some words to you. Bla bla bla. The word "Sidri" came through, translated. Sidri ship? The big red blob guy was looking through his feed at the mutants visible on the bridge. These weren't sidri! He tried again, cycling through languages...then waved a tentacle like "you, You talk! Say things now!" to get a sample of what these non-sidri spoke*

The busy bureaucracy of the station tending to other business and letting the earthlings slip down the list of priorities to be sorted. The ship was docked and crew could disembark into the station. Eventually a message beamed in "WARNING - Ship has been locked to dock. This ship may not disengage from doc or leave station until grievances filed against it have been addressed, and proper fees paid" A list of grievances from the ships we cut off and bumped into when we not-so nicely warped into the busy system appeared. Outrages demands for huge damages to their ships that certainly never occurred. Also some outrageous fees from Station administration for violating various system flight rules. The mutants could disembark and roam the station...but leaving would be an entirely different issue altogether. Another message stating a Station liaison would be dispatched to guide the crew of the ship around the station, as a courtesy while matters were litigated. No one appeared immediately. Just various funky alien types grumbling the grumble of universal blue collar workers who attached the ship to the doc and went about business in the larger docking bay outside*

Responding to her with what sounds like ‘uh-huh’ before slipping a small bundle of wire under the hand patting around looking for the com.

The others had told him to forget the Earthers, to focus on the fight against the Tyranny of the Station Admins. But he did not think his people had enough power to win this fight, though their hearts were pure and bravery unwavering. He held out hope the Earthers could prove decisive.

And also, now she looks more "official" and less like a station tourist....But she changes really quickly and might have even accidentally flashed Kurt in her haste! *G* She runs after Kitty and Kurt, wishing she had brought her skates...she doesn't really DO anything at first, waiting to see what the others do - she wants to make sure if she blasts something, she's blasting the right something. er, someBEING rather.

Fully aware of the stupidity of being protective of the girl who can phase and be utterly untouchable and is also protected by a magic space dragon, but hey, she's cute! Magneto does his grand sweeping death wave thing, and Alison starts zapping stuff dramatically, Kurt fully understands his position as bot-lane Support class. He Bamfs! Teleporting a few quick times along the expanse of the dock, nimbly snatching workers out of the path of laser blasts or security bot smashes to save as many as he can. Poofing back next to Kitty to catch a breather, tail lashing fluidly now as his blood gets pumping.

The attacks take the station security by surprise, as they had been basically shooting fish in a barrel until suddenly magnet doom and light lazor blast armageddon wrought havoc through their reins. You are able to push the big tank bots and smash them away from the dock exit. Allowing egress back to the station pleasure rings. The guide leads his people forward, showing you the way. Last time we had had a pleasant tour through a lovely market place full of wonders. Now it was all on fire or smoking, everyone fighting. Fighting with security robots, with each other, with workers trying to rise up and wrest control of the system. The Guide pushes forward, leading to the big open inner core, where dozens of station rings above and below could be seen through the huge kilometer wide circular void in the middle of the station. Explosions above, the sound of death below. The guide turns to you, his face dripping dark green blood from an injury* The Station admin is above. The topmost levels, heavily fortified. We must breach, take them before they can grow desperate and terminate life support.....*He turns, casting a striken gaze back down the open core, to the lower levels* Below...the levels I showed you before...the worker levels. It's a massacre. They are exterminating as many as they can...

It wasnt a totally blind teleport, he had been to the lowest level where they housed the workers previously. He grinned back at you* Come Kätzchen, they need us*He leaped up, squatting on the railing with the unerring balance. Then he sprung back, into a high arching backflip that sent him diving out in the open expanse of the inner core. He began to plumet down down down. His body snapping out straight, swords out in front of him as if to increase aerodynamics. He doooove down falling dozens and dozens of levels to race you to the bottom as you phased your way along. Then when he could see the bottom level come into view, he teleported. Turning the momentum of the fall into a strong attack. Disappearing falling, reappearing at a horizontal angel. The power delivered as a kick to a big security bot, tumbling it over. Kurt sprung off it, backflipping and landing as he began to spun, swords out at his sides like helicopter blades as he slashed through the human sized security droids. The level was pure chaos, the human sized bots and the big tank sentinel things were firing at everything that moved, elderly, sick, children. Kurts doubts had burned away, his mind resolved to the teachings of the proffessor,..and what Magneto may say. Peace was never an option with these monsters. Now was the time for action! His swords flashed through robotic limbs, delivering swift strokes of justice as his heart burned anew with the purpose of righteous vengence to protect these people! There were so many security bots, the level was pure chaos!*

Up and up through the dozens of levels, up through the wide central core. Then above you saw it. The heavily fortified upper admin levels. Fortified with hard lovely space alloys that would surely keep the pesky little worker rebels away. They couldnt possibly have weapons that could breach THIS expensive space metal. Mwaha. Past the thick walls the station admin sat in their war rooms, their armored guards preparing to dispatch down to the lower levels to clean up as soon as the pesky bit of fighting died down*

Do you know what a flash-bang grenade is? Same principle. I can make a hole through the door, and the moment it is clear, see if you can dazzle them with a pulse of blinding light, which will hopefully prevent them from immediately moving to vent the station to the depths of space." *no pressure then, an adept and precise use of her powers may be all that separates millions of beings from and ice death in the void... he doesn't even give Alison time to respond, turning back to the door... its increased density and the particular alloy makeup means he needs to devote more effort to the act, which means that it isn't a single instantaneous action: instead he has to peel it back layer by layer, the metal seeming to flow and ooze as though a giant invisible drillbit were piercing through it... he expends extra effort to keep any of the effects to be visible from the inside until the very last, and the moment he can see the room beyond, he takes a swift step to one side, jabbing his fingers at Alison* "Do it!

says to +Nightcrawler+=Token Tea: Kitty sighs as Kurt disappears over the railing as Lockheed lands on her shoulder to settle there, wrapping his tail around her neck even as she phases. “Showoff.” She and her draconic friend begin to fall through the floor, racing Kurt to the lower levels. Unfortunately, he beats them there. Darn teleporting fuzzy elf. She falls through the floor/roof and lands next to a robot that has a group of workers and their families against a wall, lifting a gun to take aim. Kitty, solid, slams into his back and he stumbles forward a few steps and whirls around to get a face full of fire. It backs up and Kitty kicks it and shoves at it, easily avoiding the flames from Lockheed. Who said all those training hours in Limbo didn’t pay off. Together they manage to get the thing next to the station wall. Kitty phases and shoves it through. She doesn’t follow, instead she draws her hands back inside. If there was a window present you could see it tumbling about in space away from the station. She turns back to the mayham. “Next!” As the workers and their families take advantage and run toward safety, she wades into the fray to find another sucker or two with Lockheed close behind. She calls out when she spots Kurt fighting. “If you can get them to the outer wall, I can take care of the rest.” She phases and walks through another robot, causing sparks and frying circuitry in her wake.

Pushing himself harder, trained body moving faster in expert form to fight cleaner, harder than he had before. The thoughts of these people dying if were found to be less than our best. Kurt kept an eye on you, kicking a sparking twitching droid away from him and off his sword as you yelled. He nodded back. He sheathed both swords behind his back in a flourish. He flexed his three fingered hands and three fingered toes...and tail. He began to run, golden eyes narrowing in intense concentration...he started teleporting in a long fast string of dozens of bamfs all around the level. Grabbing each security bot he could. Taking them from their fights to bamf them in a line along the outermost bulkhead of the level. Getting a long line of the humanoid ones ready for you. The bots looked around confused at what had happened. Kurt then turned to the bigger sentinel bots. Taking a deeeep breath. Tryign to teleport one against the wall*

says to +Nightcrawler+=Token Tea: Phased, she starts shoving them through one by one as fast as she can. Lockheed flies toward the end and uses his flames to try to keep them against the wall long enough for her to reach the end. She got all but the last two. They tried firing at her, but their shots just went through to hit a column behind her. Luckily you picked a spot free of any innocent bystanders. “Ok…the hard way it is.” She reaches out, becoming solid just long enough to make contact with the ‘arm’ so she can phase it. She hisses as her arm is grazed by the other robot trying to stop her. Too late, she has her next victim. In this state, no one can help her with it but that is alright. The second she is able, she phases it through the floor with her. Letting go when it is halfway through. It becomes solid. Didn’t go well for the robot who is basically severed in half. Only the top functioning. Kitty rises out of the floor, reaches out to grasp the ‘head’ between her hands and shoves it down, phases it into the floor as well before releasing it. All function cease as she turns to the last one and smiles. “You I can keep for parts.” Lockheed blasts it with fire from the right. It turns to shot at him, but misses. Too bad, So sad. Kitty rams him with her body, sending it stumbling. She tackles it, phases at contact and sending them both through a station support beam. She comes out the other side. The only thing of the robot to emerge are the arms as she’s letting go. Oops?

The various aliens who made up the Admin cowered, rich and pampered elites not at all used to being manhandled like this. The big octopus looking thing with multiple arms who had first greeted the ship when it had entered the system was there. It flailed its many tentacle arms in surrender. It seemed to be crying or quaking in fear. It shivered a moment, then it threw up all over Daz. It's inky purple colored alien vomit splurging over her in a show of surrender.

The workers rise up and take control, ushering a much more fair and functional space station that begins to heal. As a reward for our efforts, the aliens have spent the past few days doing a huge overhaul on the space ship. Reconfiguring it so it barely resembles its old self. New engines, new fuel cells, all minor scrapes and scratches all fixed up. The worker's leaders were on the ship now, waiting to speak to the mutant's about the release of the ship. Talking amongst themselves while they waited. One prattling on about how he hopes to take leave soon and make it to Eternity's Arch in time for the big Lila Cheney Show!*

She doesn’t know about the small gathering just down the hall. She figures that more for Theresa and Kurt than her. With the workers fixing everything up, Forge has pretty much left her alone so he can boss around the aliens helping with the repairs and that suited her just fine. How much longer until they can test this baby out? Last night she gave a suggestion to Theresa for a new ship name since it has changed so much. Too bad her first suggestion didn’t seem to pass by the look on Theresa’s face. Kitty thought the Buttercup was a lovely name for a spaceship.

But it is not like Helicon, here where people come for entertainment and trade. Starsparrow is...well...simply it is a known pirate harbor. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. You must be cautious. But if you tread careful, and stay on their good side...most any information in all the galaxy can be had at Starsparrow for a price. If your earther can be found, on Starsparrow you shall find information.

says to +Nightcrawler+=Token Tea: Kitty turns back to her console and brings up a star chart. She enters the direction the alien indicated they should go and watches it plot out and brings up travel data to Starsparrow. So, we’ll get information there, but how in the heck do we pay for it. What is the currency they prefer? How can we get some? Maybe we can loan Alison out as a backup singer for this Lila Cheney singer. Hehe. J/K! Well, now we know WHERE we’re going. We have a HOW we’re getting there and a WHY we are going. Now we just have to figure out how to pay for it as we go. She glances to Kurt and Alison to see if either of them had possibly given that any thought.

says to .call . of . the . siryn: *Bouncing forward in our adventure, we had departed from Helicon with a few boons from the thankful proletariat we had helped rise up and gain liberty and safety. Zipping through the space ways, toward the space station "Starsparrow", where the Heliconites had indicated was both the direction the Sidri had been traveling, and housed a wide array of rogues, spies, and other manner of space ne'erdowells that always traffic in information- and may be able to help us find what we were after. The station let us dock with little care, a fee easily paid to the dockmaster. No one came to greet us or guide us. Everyone on Starsparrow seemed to keep to themselves, and expected to be left to themselves by others. So we entered the station to see what we could learn. From tavern to tavern...for the station seemed to be made up of one seedy drinking hollow after another. Lots of aliens, gruff characters all carrying visible weapons. Some happier to talk than others. Alcohol and funky space narcotics seeming to make people more friendly and talkative. Kurt was getting into it. The place had a real fun air of danger and intrigue. Shadows and whispers, hot pirate types of all sizes, colors and genders everywhere you looked. As we enter a new large station tavern bar, Kurt decided he would like to try some of the lightly glowing neon green hooch he had seen. Moving to a big table near the back that could accommodate our whole party, trying to wave down a bartender or serving wench*

says to ALL: the recently liberated and helpful inhabitants of the Helicon spacehub had not only advised the X-Men (and company) on where they should next look for their teammate, but had also laid in the coordinates for Starsparrow. After their arrival, most of the others kept getting distracted from their mission at hand. She can hardly blame them - and with a pang of longing, Theresa realizes that if Alex were here, he'd be doing the same thing. But she can't, not while he's out there, somewhere. While the others head for Kurt's table, Theresa ends up at whatever passes for "the bar" here, ordering a drink (for show) and then turning to look at the various patrons, sizing them up. She's looking for a likely candidate to question about the Sidri, Alex, the Corsair Protocol, anything that might get her information.*

Silence now in the bar, but for the ever present buzz of the Lila Cheney Hologram in the corner, one of the vid screens above the bar with the constant advert "
DONT MISS YOUR CHANCE! LILA! At ETERNITY'S ARCH!" It repeated over and over, becoming more obvious as the other chatter, arguing, drinks clinking and space-pool ceased. If anyone were to look around, you would notice everyone in the bar was turned to look at the mutant table. Every weapon in the place, from cudgel, to blade, to blaster, was pointed vaguely in the direction of the X-men. Then a very, veerrry large green lizard man came into the bar, hunching over to fit. The big guy made Colossus look like a lightweight newbie. The big green lizard man stomped closer, about halfway across the bar toward the xmen. Stopping a dozen or so feet away. He glared down at the table....then a much more reasonable, human sized and shaped man slipped around him and stood in front of him. A dashing fellow in a red/black suit with blue accents, blue headband. A full head of wavy hair and a fucking galaxy-class moustache. The man stood in front of the giant green lizard dude and he smirked confidently. Nodding to Magneto and the younger mutants* Greetin's folks. So...why are you strangers meddlin' in my business?

Our business is with the Sidri who took him, and any who may be in league with them." *his helmeted head tilts up visibly, taking in the stock of the giant alien and showing no outward signs of intimidation* "Though I would caution you that any attempt to terminate us might end poorly for you." *there's no accompanying rattle of his powers as he says this, only the quiet, cool, confidence of an Omega level mutant.. he meets the man's gaze squarely, leaving the next move entirely up to him*

But once the weapons started breaking apart various exclamations were heard throughout the bar. "My Gun!" , and "My favorite blaster!" and "My dear old aunt petunia gave me that blaster, it was in our family for a thousand years!". Corsair knew then there was no avoiding a fight, like Florida Man, these brigands don't take lightly to having their rights to bear absurdly deadly arms infringed upon. The fight was already bubbling up, pirate aliens getting off their seats and pressing toward the table. The bartender hit a button under the bar, a device designed to cancel out Skrull-Kree super powers to lessen damage of fights. FORTUNATELY FOR YOU ALL, the device is apparently only 5% effective on Mutant powers, so everyone still packs quite a punch. Corsair gets a chestful, ripping his costume open, revealing a luxurious mat of many peak Burt Reynolds chest hair. His verile moustache wasn't the extent of his hirsute allure. Corsair goes flying back, crashing to another table and some chairs, disappearing in the clatter a moment. Ch'od the giant lizard man moves surprisingly fast, his huge hand grabbing Theresa's entire head. His tough lizard skin proving resistant to her shrieking damage. Fight breaks out!

says to ALL: *let it be known that neither Magneto nor any of the mutants came in here looking to start trouble, but the moment threats started flying, some inevitable countdown started, and he just sought to reduce the body count -- most especially the mutant body count -- as much as possible... you don't draw a weapon unless you intend to use it, but once drawn, anything if fair game... he feels something whirr to life, slightly dampening his ability, but not enough to hamper his effectiveness in this little kerfuffle.... he has an almost instinctive shield up as the first round of attacks rebound harmlessly... he shakes his head* "Amateurs." *he gestures vaguely, and the various tables and chairs seem to spring to life, unravelling into metallic ribbons that wrap around the hands and claws of aliens that approach him, constricting them and holding them fast, preventing their approach... with the most immediate threats to his person dealt with, he turns toward Alison and Kitty, making sure they are doing okay, ready to move to their aid if needed*

: As soon as Kurt leaves, she grips Alison’s arm so she hopefully doesn’t jerk away. Lockheed turns his head to glare at an alien that was trying to reach for Kitty but his hands pass right through her. He growls at the being even as he’s crouches as if he’s ready to spring and eat the being’s face off. To emphasis his intention, Lockheed huffs out a quick spurt of flame at it even as the creature backpedals away. So long as she’s maintaining contact with Alison, they are safe. Probably safer than anyone else, even with the slight dampening of powers. Although, Kitty isn’t sure about phasing through some of the strange metal at the moment. Best to not try that. ((And at this point, I will leave NC and Daz to story tell for me.))

says to +Nightcrawler+=Token Tea: Theresa is going to have some VERY STERN WORDS with Magneto after this. First he speaks for them all like he's the leader, again, then he shows off his metal prowess and incites a bar fight! Look, if they have to sacrifice one of them to stay behind, let's make it be him. Luckily, the three of them (Theresa, Kurt, and Kitty) have trained enough together that they can spring into action without much talk. She is bamfed across the room, much to Lizard Guy's consternation... he's already turning and lumbering over, causing the whole place to rumble with his efforts. Theresa grabs two glasses from the closest place to her and launches them at Lizard Guy, sending a sonic vibration after them....it collides into the glasses just as they get near Lizard Guy, causing them to shatter and spray broken glass at his face* I do nae know...but there is something familiar about him. *of course, it could just be recognition of another human, amid all the alien lifeforms surrounding them*

Then he looks around the bar through the rumble spilling over everywhere. Corsair pops back up behind him, on his feet again with a wide smile. He shrugs* Ch'od my man, humans are a unpredictable bunch. You should know that by now, flying with me all these years*Corsair dives away from some debris, rolling up to stand on the bar.

Then his brain began to process the story. The Sidri, of course. He was working it together. Then he was a bit sidetracked. Casting a confused glance at Magneto* A what? What's a mutant, man? *Corsair has been out of the earth game for a while. Sure there were mutants on earth going back a ways, but things hadn't really heated up and gone public until after Corsair was off-world.* Does that have something to with Alex? The Sidri ...yes, That makes sense. Notorious bounty hunters reviled across the 'verse. I got a whole pile of 'em, bounty hunters that is, after me. Sidri are the first to figure out my home world, try to track me down there. Half clever of the weird lil bug bots. But ...I didn't think I had any living relatives still on earth. Alex, he must have scanned close to my DNA scent they were after, dumb bug bots cottoned onto the idea they had me and grabbed my boy. Sidri are relentless, thorough, but none too bright I've found.

says to -- tomorrow's - dream --: Well, she’s going to sit if no one else will! Kitty parks it so she has a good view of everyone. While Theresa explains the situation, Kitty’s eyes narrow as she studies Corsair. Seriously, the man is still stuck in the 70s with that hair and mustache and she’s having a difficult time seeing the resemblance between him and Alex. Maybe Scott, but she’s never seen Scott without that visor or sun glasses, so maybe… Alex must take after his mother. At Magneto’s question, Kitty rolls her eyes as she shifts in her seat to face him fully but waits until Corsair answers before she comments “That’s your concern at this moment?” Her exasperation pretty telling by the tone of her voice. “ What does it matter? He’s Alex’s father and he’s human. And in case you forgot, we are NOT in Kansas anymore, Toto.” She flings her arms out to gesture to the bulkheads around them. “He doesn’t want to eat us. Doesn’t want to sell us into slavery…” At that she gives Corsair the ‘stink eye’ as if to say, ‘he damn well better not.’ Before she returns her attention back to Magneto. “Space is not my jam. I want to get Alex and get home. Nothing out here is nice or friendly, or at least not friendly without serious and dangerous strings attached. HE…” She jabs a finger toward Corsair. “…seems to have a working knowledge of how things are out here. I suggest you listen to him. That HUMAN just might save your life.”

Like a big wiki-entry on the Shi'ar, pictures of them in various armor, and their big feathery hair. A few holos of their various massive star destroyer type ships.* Shi'ar are the biggest of the lawful empires out here in these parts of the black. Big damn empire, rules a million worlds. Aggressively expansionist, their whole religion commands them to absorb other cultures to grow stronger. Still, with all that, most of the time they ain't bad, compared to the other big empires. Kree and Skrull, lawful but chaotic, crazy fuckers. The other less lawful big players out there...well let's not borrow trouble talking about them just now. Shi'ar have been pretty steady for centuries. But everyone's luck runs out eventually I guess. Their emperor gone batshit cuckoo a spell back. Doin all kinds of unpleasant shit, spreading misery and suffering all across the stars. Me and the jammers here all met in the Mad Emperors slave pits. Got no love for the man, and we been fighting him. Lately, we been doing pretty good. We have a secret weapon that's got em real nervous. So they reached out for help, hired every dirty bounty hunter they could find. Imperial coffers go deep, pays for a lot of hired guns. Sidri never pass up a lucrative contract, so seems they went looking for me and got Alex. Sidri are dumb bots, so they'll do it all strictly by the book. Take him to Titan Sphere, big Imperial government hub. Sidri wont leak what they got until they get to the Imperial Governor for their reward. And big interior imperial system like Titan takes days and days of red tape and paperwork to get through before, and a queue of thousands of ships waiting to get in. If we're lucky they haven't tried to cash Alex in yet. We can grab him and get out before the Shi'ar know we're even there. Chod can probably rig something up to scan the Sphere for humans once we hit orbit. Say, is Alex a mutant too? *He looks around at you and the others* You're crew got any kind of coms Alex may be carrying we could home in on?

says to ALL: "Hmmm." *he suspects that Corsair has some ideas on just how they might get the contract cancelled, and wouldn't you know it there might be benefits for his crew in that... well, he supposes that Kitty was right: none of the help out here comes without some kind of strings... he grins savagely* "I cannot deny that the notion of not leaving enough of them intact has some great appeal." *after all, they had the gall to abduct a mutant, and they should be made to pay for it.. oh and we should probably rescue Alex too*

Nightcrawler: *The Starjammers had guided us to Titans Sphere, and made good on their promise to provide some intel after hacking the Sphere system. The Sidri ship was in the long queue to meet with a Shi'ar custom team today. Titan Sphere was a massive dyson sphere system, entirely enclosed in the massive metal shell that surrounded the star and 3 planets. We gained entry simply enough, it was an open system after all. Within the sun blazed in the middle, it's energy being captured efficiently by the truly massive dome surrounding the system. In addition to the three planets multiple artificial cities had been built. Multiple long queues of hundreds of space ships were lined up toward these floating flat discs of Shi'ar cities, waiting to bring their wares from all around the galaxy to be processed by the empire. The cities were open to the sky, the Shi'ar had provided atmosphere to great sections of the system within the sphere so the unforgiving suffocation of space was not such a threat within the massive construct. It was a place far outside the abilities of earth and its infant civilizations to have created. A wonder of the stars, an example of what the REAL powers out here could build. The sidri ship with Alex was picked up, in queue 3, and we gently made our way toward that city. Corsair had suggested a simple enough plan, Chod had hacked the system and could get us access. A team of x-men would infiltrate, gain control of the Custom port and pose as Shi'ar agents, long enough to spend Shi'ar coin to buy Alex from the Sidri...then we all slip away and hightail it out of here! Kurt looked at the view screen as the many marvels of the Sphere system were on display as we slowly and unsuspiciously made our way toward the floating super city. Kurt spoke* Theresa, let me go with you. I know you want to be there for Alex...but Katherine, myself, X-23, sneaking about and being nefarious is what we are good at. Well, perhaps not Katherine...mischievous? Nein, that doesn't work for x-23 *He pauses and rubs his chin, thinking a moment. The two women were quite dissimilar, no adjective really fit them both...but none the less you got what he was saying, we were good sneakers! You and Magneto were good back up or air cover reserve, but he didn't think you would be talked out of coming for the handover*
Magneto: *Magneto has little complaint with the plan, so he remains silent, arms folded across his chest, impassive... he cannot help but be impressed by the Shi'ar technology, though he wonders how well it holds up against the power of mutants' abilities... we shall soon, find out, I suppose... he glances between Nightcrawler and Siryn* "I shall go with whichever group it makes the most sense for me." *he is not exactly nondescript in his helmet and cape, and seems disinclined to take either off*
Dazzler: What should I, like, do? ~Ali pipes up, since she's apparently been forgotten. How rude! And after she helped Magneto on Helicon and also brought a gorgeous alien who is totes more powerful than everyone here. And now she's just relegated to background scenery? Nobody puts Dazzy in the corner! hehe. Who gets to tell Alison that she can't go, she'd only be a liability? I bet Magneto will do it!
Siryn: *as much as she wanted to rebuff your suggestion, Theresa's been leader of their little group long enough to understand that what you say makes sense. She has a very specific ability that is not at all useful in situations like this... you are ALSO right that she will not be dissuaded in coming.* Aye, come along then. *Theresa turns to Magneto* Will ye stay with tha ship? Cover our escape, or come an' fetch us if things go banjaxed? *if you read between the lines, two things are noteworthy. 1. She is ASKING, not commanding. And 2. You'll be in charge of the ship and whoever else stays behind (lolAlison). An integral part of the team, not just this old guy they brought along for fun.*
Shadowcat: Typist just realized everyone is waiting on Kitty’s post. So here it is…Kitty is standing by Kurt. At his suggestion, she gives him a side-eye glance and then looks to Laura. Not fair. Laura has the ultimate ‘poke-it-with-a-stick’ power. Can you tell typist has been listening to way too many Backyardagins YouTube clips?
Nightcrawler: *Kurt leans over and whispers* * Perhaps ask Magneto to avoid starting interstellar wars with giant space empires until we return*It would be SO embarrassing to return to earth with a massive space armada on our tail ready to blow up our home planet. Then Kurt gives an encouraging wink to Alison to come along unless Theresa has other orders, and bounds out of the ship. Down into the city not terribly far from the Shi'ar customs center. A large building housing the bored-out-of-their-minds Shi'ar soldiers. The Starjammers had told us the garrison was practically punishment duty for bad soldiers, so we were likely to find undisciplined, unobservant, uncaring agents we should be able to infiltrate for our purposes. From what the Jammers had read over the hacked com line, the Sidri were scheduled to exchange Alex for their bounty within the hour. The Starjammers had swooshed off in their ship for their own purposes in the system in the mean time, promising to return before we were ready to bolt out. Kurt crept ahead, taking point, approaching one of the wide walls of the center that was leas viewed by other vantage points or onlookers. He looks back to Kitty, nodding to the wall as his tail lashed silently.
Magneto: *he's not sure what "banjaxed" means in the original Swedish, but he can infer from context, giving a single nod... he also perceives the slight, but important, shift in the dynamic between us, though he says nothing aloud* "I shall also monitor whatever it is our Starjammer friends might be doing." *it may not be him that Nightcrawler needs to worry about starting intergalactic incidents... he gives Kitty an encouraging nod; her unique skills make her a natural for infiltration... he clears his throat lightly at Nightcrawler's motion to Alison* "If it's all the same, I would prefer Alison to stay here, with me. We worked quite well together on Helicon if I do say so, and would be good for backup, should it be needed."
Shadowcat: Without hesitation, she phases and steps through the wall toward the other side. She slowly comes out the other side, taking time to verify she’s alone. It is a decently sized room that houses some computers against a portion of the opposite wall. There are large, ornate, case-like structures beside them and against another wall what looks to be small book cases with books and binders. Kitty crosses over to the computers to investigate. They are completely different from the Sidri ships’ tech. Thankfully she got a ‘crash course’ in route with the Starjammers for a situation just like this. She takes a seat and begins work. “oops…” She furiously works tapping and tacking away a few seconds more and sighs. On the other side of the wall, the group hears an alarm far away. While it wasn’t what she intended, it did have the benefit of getting the attention of several guards who leave the area to investigate several docks away. Not all, but it is a reduced number we have to contend with now. Just when Kurt might be getting nervous, Kitty appears once more. In one hand she has a small device. “Got it. Sorry it took so long.” She activates it and shows Laura. There’s an 3D image of the floor with small green dots. Kitty points. “Guards.” And Kurt can tell you what else it shows.
Dazzler: Ali visibly brightens when Kurt winks and motions for her to come along... yay, she can help! But then her face falls and her lower lips trembles slightly when Magneto speaks up to say she should stay behind. WTH, man?! Why does he haaaaaate her so much. She waits patiently for someone to speak up and insist that she go along (coughKittycoughbestiecough), but Kitty forgets her. Once they've left, Alison looks at you expectantly. Well, you wanted to babysit her, now you've gotta entertain her. *G*
Siryn: she's Irish. Not Scottish, not Swedish. Just reminding everyone in general, not specific people. *G* Theresa looks at Kurt, looks at Magneto, looks back at Kurt, looks back at Magneto. They both have good points.* Do nae be starting ANY intergalactic anythings. But aye, keep a close eye on tha Starjammers. *she did not trust Corsair either, blood relation to Alex he may be. Leaving Magneto to babysit Alison, she follows the others - she will defer to their lead in this, for they are the best sneakers, as Kurt said. She doesn't really need to lead - they work well together as a unit (usually).*
Nightcrawler: *Well that alarm in the distance was concerning, but then Kitty popped back out and didnt mention it so we press forth! Kurt looks over the map Kitty shows us, studying the layout quickly in case he needs to start doing some teleporting. At least he wont be completely blind now. He looks to you* I think perhaps we should get some Soldier armor, as Corsair showed us? So we can blend in with ze garrison. Then, make for ze command room so we can get control before ze Havok transfer? *Kurt motioned for Kitty to pull us through so we could all be inside, within the walls and out of sight. Into the computer room. Kurt creeps over to the door, looking out into the wider hall, finding it empty for now. He glanced back to you to wait. Should we jump some guards and steal their clothes? Find a supply room? How violent is Theresa feeling today? hehe.*
And Magneto had good instincts, keeping tabs on the 'Jammers. They had flown over to one of the other city disks a planets orbit away. Still on sensors. They were going about their business. Communications chatter rose over in that neighboring city after a while. The authorities seemingly agitated about something. Then a flash of some energy discharge in the area, uncharacteristic in a peaceful civilian system like this*
Magneto: *he waves Siryn's warning off dismissively; he isn't going to borrow trouble for the mutants; though if your Starjammer friends get us embroiled in THEIR intergalactic war, he has no compunctions with ending it... once we're left on our own, he gives you a thin, slightly sympathetic smile* "Despite what you might think, this is not punishment detail." *he inclines his head to you* "Do your marvelous powers have any defensive-- hmm..." *he notes the uptick in chatter from the Starjammers' quadrant, moving to the screen to check on the visuals... what he sees causes a deep frown to crease his face* "Well... if nothing else, they will serve as further distraction for our mission." *he gestures to the screen, moving aside for you to see*
Dazzler: ~isn't it? It FEELS like punishment detail. Is she being punished because she went shopping while the others were trying to start a revolution? She thought she made up for that by helping there at the end. Ali tries very hard not to roll her eyes and sigh...looking over her shoulder to see who you are talking to when you mention "marvelous powers." Oh? It's her? Why, Magneto, you smarmy flatterer...hehe. She's about to shrug in response to your unfinished question when you change the subject anyway. She leans forward a bit, then steps closer....can you change the channel, maybe find the Lila Cheney Music Video Channel?~ What? What happened?
Shadowcat: She phases all who are willing into the room. While Kurt is debating their next move, Kitty ticky-tacks on the computer once more. “We might want to hurry up. I think the ship just moved to the number two position.” No pressure! Of course, she didn’t check on the other planets and isn’t aware of what crap-storm the Starjammers have started.
Siryn: *lol, Theresa is feeling VERY violent. Now that they've -finally- arrived, nothing will stop her from getting to Alex before his captors transfer him. Once Kitty has them safely out of sight, Theresa checks out the map as well, scanning it for a likely "supply closet." She doesn't see any likely candidates, but again, this is an alien world, so how likely is it that it is laid out in anything that makes Earthen sense? But then, the decision is out of her hands as the door slides open and two guards trudge in (two remain just out of the door, making a total of four - what a coincidence!), then do a doubletake when they realize there are intruders* Halt! *well, what they really say is "Ekneblart!" but the Starjammers hooked everyone up with a Babelfish translator, so it automatically translates the alien language into English. Look, uniforms! Theresa gives a shout, knocking those two back off their feet, while X moves in to mete out enough damage to render them unconscious.... leaving the other two to rush in to the room, for Kurt and Kitty to deal with*
Nightcrawler: *Kurt gives a wince as you scream, the sonic warble making his pointy ears twitch, his tail snap about in a discordant twitch. We were committed now. Speed and efficiency took the place of stealth and care. Kurt leapt up on the ceiling, then used it to spring down at an angle as his long lean body shot straight like a dart. Connecting both feet to the face of the guard in a hard kick. Landing he quickly spun a leg sweep, cracking the other guard by the back of the knees. Kurt quickly bounded to catch the guard in mid air as he fell to help BOUNCE his head harder off the floor to knock him out as well. He started pulling the armor off them, tossing some to Kitty, putting some on himself* Quickly, maybe we can still blend in. We must move toward ze command room!*Kurt dresses in the guard armor, picking up the staff the guard had and then presses forward, using Kitty's map and trying not to get too turned around. The center was large, and even with the map proved hard to negotiate. Then we encountered more guards as we rounded a hall. The group had just offloaded cargo from a ship. The Sidri ship in fact, having gotten through the customs quicker than anticipated. The Sidri were paid, took off never to be seen again. Facing us down the hall was Alex, with a neuro inhibitor on his temple keeping him zoned out...He was marching forward like a zombie between the guards. Just as Kurt was registering what he was seeing, and immediately thinking how Theresa would react...another round of Guards appeared behind us, immediately shooting. Kurt was caught offguard, gets hit in the back and is blasted up through the ceiling, flying outside to land in a tumble on the rooftop*
Shadowcat: Kitty quickly changes with the others and follows with the group. She’s right behind Laura. If there was a safe place to be, it is there! Kurt wouldn’t have to worry about her if a fight breaks out between her phasing and Laura’s fighting abilities, she’s safer than Alison at the moment! Hehe
Siryn: Theresa takes time, precious time, to try and disguise herself as best as possible in the guards' armor...it is ill-fitting and they don't have enough appendages for the holes, so it is little wonder they are rumbled so quickly. She rounded the corner, then comes to a complete stop as her brain tries to process what she sees....Alex! Her shock and elation override anything else, which is why she didn't register more guards coming from behind. Later, she will be angry at herself for not protecting her teammates... but X is the tracker of the group, why did she allow them to come up behind them like that?? Kurt getting blasted through the ceiling rouses Theresa from her surprise and she turns to Kitty* Go get him, X and I will cover you. *she means Alex, not Kurt, just in case you are confused. And while Kitty hopefully phases to bypass any attacks to get to Alex, Theresa moves in, picking up the staff that was blown out of Kurt's hand and using it to fight off the guards around Alex*
Nightcrawler: *Kurt tumbles on the rooftop below, groaning, taking a moment to recover. In the hallway the guards who had alex are confused and stunned. They had just been transferring some stupid bounty to a cell, what the hell was all this? The guard that came up behind were responding to the previous attacks, so they were more violent. They fight, but are as previously stated the dregs of the Shiar army so dont prove to be too much trouble
But hey, things are going pretty well for the xmen, over at the other floating city things are fully on fire, alarms going off as flames spread and people wail. Whatever the Starjammers were up to was a pretty wild time!*
Shadowcat: At Theresa’s comment, Kitty turns her worried gaze from where Kurt disappears to her. She nods in understanding. She casts a quick glance back up even as she phases. Her attention turns back to the task before one and she rushes forward, phasing through the guards easily on her course for Alex. As she reaches his side, she unphases for a fraction of a second, long enough to grasp him by the arm. “Time to go.” Now that he’s phased with her, she takes just a momentary pause to study the inhibitor attached to him. She’ll have to test it later to see if she can short circuit it when they are in a safer location. No way is she going to let go of him now to check. She tugs on his arm and starts to guide him back toward the others, if he’ll go. Hopefully he’s zoned out enough. And if not, she’ll just stand here and let everyone and everything pass through them until the battle is over.
Siryn: *between X and Theresa, they make quick work of the Shi'ar grunts...once they are all down, Theresa turns to Kitty in surprise.* Go, go! *she gestures up up up, indicating for Kitty to take Alex up through the hole Kurt so thoughtfully broke open for us as he crashed through the ceiling. Once Kitty is up and through, Theresa grabs X's arm and gives a shriek, the force of her voice propelling them both up through the hole as well...where she immediately goes to Kurt to assess his situation. She WANTS to focus on Alex, but Kurt has the more urgent need right now*
Nightcrawler: *Just groans and stuff, slowly getting up to his feet, rubbing the burn mark on his armor at his chest* Im alive
Shadowcat: With her grip firmly on Alex’s, Kitty takes a step up and begins the slow climb toward the rooftop by way of ‘air walking’. She really needs to work on this power. It is currently her weakest. Well, unless you ask Laura and she’s day her swordmanship, hand-to-hand, and well, everything is her weakest. But alas, we can’t all be Laura ((*sniff-sniff*)). She makes it and pulls Alex -the zombie- Summers through the opening and onto the roof. She pulls him away from the hole to make room for the others.
DEATHBIRD: All round the group lazors slam into the rooftop from above and a commanding voice follows: “Hand over the traitor Summers immediately and your deaths will be quick.” Hovering above is a woman with avian features. Her glorious wings of purple and blues flap behind her, keeping her aloft. Her hands are curled and tipped with lethal talons instead of fingernails. The Shi’ar soldiers are kept aloft by Shi’ar technologies far more advanced that anything Earth has even dreamed of. Each soldier, two for each of the X-men, have their weapon’s trained on the group. In a voice as cold as the vacuum of space, she continues. “You are prisoners of the glorious Shi’ar Empire by decree of Emperor D’Kan.” She lifts her royal head and glares down at you. “Kneel before your betters, Earthlings.”

He was not on an enchanted bed, but a med table with various sci fi bleeps and bloops and lights all around him. Ch'od the big green Starjammer who looked so fearsome on first impression, was hunched over Alex. The big alien was a soft touch, ship engineer and scientist. He was making sure Alex was ok, recovering from the Sidri statis. Ch'od told you it was perfectly normal to take a few days to come out of the deep sleep, and not to be too concerned. Just then Alex proved him wrong as he awoke early. Eyes fluttering open. He croaked through a dry mouth* Wha...where am I. Who- *Just then Alex saw the big hulking green Ch'od standing next to him. His eyes went wide. His heart rate shot up on the monitors and a thruuummmmm began to pulse in his chest. He tried to sit up urgently, scooting away from the big green guy* HOLY FUCKING SHIT WHAT IS THAT!!

She tries to get comfortable in the metally chair beside your bed, but that is a practice in futility.

She looks up from shuffling the stack of books and freezes before she starts the comment she was going to make. Hazel eyes wide, she takes in the sight of Alex and Theresa all snuggly in the bed. Theresa’s hand seemingly caressing Alex’s chest while Ch’od is standing there with hands outward as if warding off something. She blinks. Drops the books and spins around. As she fading back through the door a faint mutter MIGHT be heard. “Nope. I don’t wanna know…” And she is gone. Never to be seen again this evening by either of you.

says to .call . of . the . siryn: *Corsair sat uneasily. His fingers tapped at the arm of the chair. He cursed a litany of cosmic deities in his head. What was wrong with him? He had faced a thousand thousand terrors in the deep, faced them with a laugh and a swagger. For 20 years he had shown that no creature in the stars could make him quiver. Now he sat here, nervous anxious...feeling very old, helpless for the first time. When you both walked in he nodded, gave Theresa a smile. It was easier to look at her* Your girl here got some spunk, Alex. Cleaned my clock in a bar fight on the station*He chuckled in his deep way, trying to relax as he shook his head* Quite a crew you roll with. Took us by the collar and had us help find you, this one wouldn't take no for an answer. I was worried sending them up against Shi'ar...but I doubt there's a power in the 'verse that woulda kept her from you now.*he nods, looking away again with a distant stare. Remembering that feeling. How hard he had fought for his Kate. Theresa had won her rescue,...where he had failed. This was harder than expected, looking at Alex he saw her, Alex always did look more like her than Scott. Corsair tried to find the words for what came next...*

But she is not happy about it, which you can probably tell by the way she is staring daggers at you, trying to silently communicate the fact that if you eff this up, she will explode your head with her sonic scream... she grips Alex's hand tightly, waiting for you to answer his question*

I been at it 20 years, ever since....*He paused a moment, clearing his throat as he pushed down the hurt he found welling up from deep inside. Hurt he hadn't allowed himself to think about in many years. He pushed on, harder* Ever since the damn Shi'ar ship surprised me...back on earth*His eyes went to Alex then, finally holding his gaze as he finished the tale. Watching the boy* Shot my plane clear outta the sky. I was a Major in the air force, I'd outflown every bird the Soviets had... but that ship. I'd never seen an alien craft before. It shot me, beamed me and my wife off before the thing exploded. But not before she took our boys....and got em off. There was only one 'chute. She tied them together...made...made Scott promise to hold on*Corsair nodded, taking a breath as he looked at Alex* Last time anyone called me Mister...it was Mr. Summers. Christopher Summers....I'm your father, Alex.

It hadn't been weeks since he saw you last in his mind, but he never missed a chance to get his hands on you when possible. But as the story went on, the plane being shot...the boys in the chute...you felt Alex's usually wandering fingers stop. His arm still.*...What? That's...that's not possible...my father is dead. they di-*The story was still processing through Alex's mind. The parachute...Alex had only been about 4 or 5, but he remembered that. The plane was on fire, his mother crying, tying him to Scott. He hadn't wanted to go with Scott, Scott was a doodyhead. But his mother had kissed him, hugged them...then they were falling. How could anyone know that? He hadn't even told Theresa that! The professor knew, from his work with Scott trying to fix his head trauma...but Xavier wouldn't share that with anyone. Alex looked at the man, shocked again after just recovering from waking up in space and Theresa's fantastic tale* Chris Summers...but...*Alex looked closer at the old man...the hair was bigger and more flowy, the mustache had grown...but the man did match the few vague childhood memories he could remember. And the voice! The deep soothing voice, yes, that was it! That is why it had seemed familiar. Alex leaned forward suddenly, trying to control his voice, betraying the emotion surging within as it cracks a bit* You are! and...and Mom? Is she here?!

says to ALL: Persephone is a lovely name for a planet, though WHY it is named Persephone is a bit confusing. Perhaps it means something different in the native alien language of the planet and is only being translated as such to her? She elects not to think about it too much because it isn't -that- important. Persephone is a lovely name and this is a lovely planet and she and Istrypo are going out to have fun (as soon as her partner-in-crime gets here, that is)! Putting the finishing touches on her new outfit, Ali studies herself in a highly reflective wall of the ship that is not a mirror but is basically as good as a mirror. She hopes Issy hurries because otherwise someone might come along and make her stay on board the ship again and that was no fun last time.~

Kurt came wandering by smoothly, gliding and sliding along the ceiling as he walked upside down, torso and head hanging in in the hallway just behind Magneto as he spotted you. He had been out in the markets with Kitty and had done some shopping, doing his best to re-create the Michael Jackson "Beat It" look apparently. He had a wild layered leather looking jacket, not quite the right shade of red, and accented with glowing green alien accents, he had cool gloves and new boots tailored to his special appendages with the same matching glowing green highlights. His curly mound of hair was slicked stylishly for the evening out plans. He grinned at you as his head hung upside down.

says to ALL: Fashion does elude the alien a little, she still has not built a human wardrobe -- been putting that off honestly. So Ali set her up with this outfit. Kinda spacey retro 80s? Ali told her to wear this wig too and the outfit is comfortable but pretty rocker chick-ish. The black form fitting pants have electric pink and purple lines on them like confetti, the top a little more simple, reminds her of those expensive paintings that just have geometric lines that represents some mathematical equation on it. Whatever!! She had Ali do her make up for her earlier. And she stands in front of a mirror almost not recognizing herself and puts on the bracelet cuff thing Ali also said would look good. It is shiny and reflects colour. Shitkicker booties. Well she seems right and heads out to meet the others. We still have work to do with that Deathbird running about and Stardust wants a proper fight with that one. The Shiar are a menace. Reconnaissance is important and we must look the part. Coming around the corner, she clearly seems a little uncomfortable but she does like these boots and the wig is quite nice. If Daz is told to remain behind, the alien would have something to say about that..

Isty FINALLY shows up and saves Alison from having to make small talk with Cranky~ Finally! You look amaze! ~see, she has impeccable fashion sense! She didn't wear a wig herself, but she did add pink and blue streaks in her normally pale blonde hair... and in addition to Istrypso's make-up, Ali painted a blue starburst around one of her own eyes. She claps gleefully and gestures for Isty to lead the way (has she even been here before? lol)... glancing over her shoulder a few times to make sure that Magneto hasn't gotten lost on the way, hehe. The streets are bustling, signs are flashing in many colors, it's a pretty rocking place once the sun goes down (and before the second sun comes up). Luckily they are flush with credits (and Alison's platinum Visa which also seems to be accepted anywhere they've been for some odd reason) and they all remembered their neuro-translator so they can understand things, right? After a bit of a walk, in which Isty probably has a hard time keeping Alison on track, they arrived at their destination.... a karaoke bar that Stardust knew of and they decided they MUST investigate further*G*

says to ALL: "Thank you for helping me Ali. I like your garments too and your eyes." She smiles and Magneto is right, we match and he is sticking out like a sore toe. Persephone is a very prosperous planet and a melting pot. Istrypso speaks many languages herself, alien ones -- so she does not need a neuro-translator but just in case, she has one. This is a city of lights all cyberpunk and endless activity. Honestly, she has not had a reason to stop by here much but she is managing. We cannot afford to get lost. "Hello Magneto, Kurt..Magneto, should I call you Erik?" Seems odd calling you by your other name right now. No one is going to notice us really but we must be alert. This planet is not some utopia you know. The karaoke bar is flashy and familiar. "This is popular gathering place, we could attain information here. People of importance come .. don't let the pretty lights fool you." This bar is a front for something but people come and go all the time here. Everyone who visits Persephone is told about this place at least once and already we can see a variety of people entering.

Her steps slow for a brief moment as all sorts of eyes fix on them - big eyes, little eyes, multi-faceted eyes, eyes on stalks. But, with a flip of her hair, Ali presses forward, ignoring the stares and sliding into a round booth arrangement. And just to fastforward things a bit, lots of drinks come after being ordered and she and Isty are alternating between looking at the song catalog to see if there's anything she recognizes and looking at the lifeforms to see if there's any that are cute*G*~ Oh! ~she shows a few song titles to Isty, glancing at Magneto quickly before whispering to her friend and giggling.

Always at ease with his mutations and weirdness, he didn't exactly find this place liberating, but it was nice that no one was throwing beer bottles at him or trying to stab him with a pool cue while screaming about Jesus banishing the demon back to hell. Kurt poofed across the place, to the bar to get the first round of space spirits to start the evening. Bamfing them over to his friends when everyone settles somewhere. He waits with wide yellow glowing eyes to see what our pretty space guide lady pics to wow the crowd!*

says to ALL: *he considers Isty's question for a moment before responding* "Yes, Erik is fine. In that vein, by which name do you prefer to be addressed?" *he assumes that "Starburst" is your code name just as Magneto is with his, but he should extend the same courtesy to you and ask... perhaps he prefers you to address him by his human name because you are not a mutant? he can feel the various eyes and configurations focusing on the group, and unlike some he doesn't evaluate the crowd for potential mates, instead assessing any obvious threats... perhaps he is doing so too obviously, and thus Alison's reminder about the fight... he gives her a thin smile* "Perhaps... though after all we've been through, perhaps an uneventful evening would be a nice respite." *he may not be able to cut loose like the rest of you, but that doesn't mean he seeks out violence; he's not Wolverine... assuming that Nightcrawler got a drink for him, Magneto does take one, nodding appreciatively* "Thank you..." *he doesn't shoot it back, even if that's the intention, sipping it carefully... he's not worried about being poisoned, though you can be forgiven for thinking that's what he's doing... he follows Nightcrawler's gaze as the two women mount the stage, a species of curiosity growing in spite of his earlier surliness*

says to ALL: Then there are the no-eyes who use eco location. Honestly, the people should realize that some aliens are similar to humans in structure. Like Stardust here. Internally, she would be vastly different though. We walk through and she casually lifts a tiny group of aliens -- the group is not tiny, the creatures are -- and gets them on the bar so they can order. You can hear horrible voices coming from them too. They are cute but don't let that fool you. We get a booth and Kurt fetches us drinks. We likely will need much more later but poor Stardust would have to drink several barrels before feeling anything probably. Looking at Magneto, she shrugs playfully while trying this blue bubbly drink. "Ali calls me Issy, Isty -- most find my true name hard to say.." Her cheeks flush a little and she smiles pleasantly. "Erik is a nice name.." It is an exotic name to her, so when she says that, you know she means it and is not be patronizing or anything. Ali is just a delight -- except what she does in a moment. Issy snickers but not a pronounced because she does not know the song titles -- but she speaks alien languages that human tongue cannot pronounce, how hard would this be for her? THAT ONE sounds funny though. But her smile fades away when Ali says she has to go up there? "Uhhh no...I don't.." This galactic warrior having faced horrors is looking at you like a deer in headlights. Up there? In front of the whole bar? Oh she saw you pitter pattering Erik! She looks through the cards trying to pick something that A - She knows and B -It is easy to sing. Sighing, she walks up there and it feels like forever, she picks a slower song and easy. It clearly is not from this year, last year, 10 years..no. But you should know it and see the humour. At first her voice is quiet and you know what the song is, great made it through the first verse..grasping the mic, she tries her best, she is not a singer but she doesn't sound awful either. "Ziggy really sang screwed-up eyes and screwed-down hairdo like some cat from Japan..." This man must have been on some narcotic because she has no idea what this song is about or what he is talking about but she is at least singing in tune. "So where were the spiders while the fly tried to break our balls? With just the beer light to guide us.." What does this even mean?? But she likes the melody. Thank the two suns of this planet the song is short. Stardust does not dance, she just tries to get the words right, the lights are all around her and she just hopes you guys are not laughing at her -- much anyway. This is embarrassing but fun too and she tries not to look at anyone, nope. She doesn't suck though, at least no one is covering their ears or throwing things. "Making love with his ego Ziggy sucked up into his mind, like a leper messiah.." What? These are the actual lyrics to this song? Earthlings are weird. She should have chosen a classic from the world those little guys were from. Once the song is done, she hops off the stage and hurries back to the table and drinking the full drink there all at once and feels better. You know, she did have a good time, just she's never done this before -- but she is trying to acclimate to Earth and be apart of this team.

says to ALL: ~Ali has already picked out her song....surprised it was in the songbook as it is a song from Earth (and not a Lila Cheney one either), but maybe because it's a spacey sort of song? Whatever the reason, after the applause from Istrypso has died down some and she's gone back to the booth, Ali fiddles with the sound enhancing device (speaker) and the vocal amplification apparatus (microphone) as the song starts to play. Above the stage, the image of a swirly shimmery planet with rings (rather like Saturn, but also rather unlike Saturn - maybe she doesn't know what Saturn looks like?) appears. The lightsphere rotates one way while the rings rotate in the opposite direction - it's like a giant disco ball, but it's just a light effect - there's no substance to it and no reflective surface either. However, as it rotates, it SEEMS to be casting light blobs around the room like a disco ball would.... but it's just Ali doing it.~ If you wanna run away with me, I know a galaxy....And I can take you for a ride....I had a premonition that we fell into a rhythm....Where the music don't stop for life....Glitter in the sky, glitter in my eyes....Shining just the way I like....If you're feeling like you need a little bit of company....You met me at the perfect time. ~in addition to the light effects she's projecting above and around the room, behind her are more...strobes and waves and swirls and starbursts. As for Ali, she's concentrating on the song (without needing to look at the prompter, not that she could read the alien language anyway), a bit of dancing, and doesn't appear at all to pay attention to the three separate light shows she's projecting.~ You want me, I want you, baby...My sugarboo, I'm levitating....The Milky Way, we're renegading....Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah....~chorus~I got you, moonlight, you're my starlight....I need you all night, come on, dance with me.....I'm levitating...~and so on, until she's finished with the song, the lights fade away, and taa daa!~

I've never really done karaoke before, it's fun. ~she's usually doing her own songs, so this was a nice change. In fact, this may be the most fun she's had on this trip yet. It definitely beats fighting Deathbird anyway*G* She clinks her glass with yours and then Kurt's, then settles back to listen to the next several karaoke performers, most of which sing a Lila Cheney song.~

says to ALL: "Thank you..I have never done anything like that before. do humans do this often?" Most beings in here are not of Earth. She appreciates the support and grins at Kurt because he totally exaggerated applause. "Ali would be hired, I likely would be a .. enforcer of establishment parameters..." She forgets the word 'bouncer'. Her dark eyes shine looking at Ali her best friend. She has not had a best friend since her home was annihilated. Raising her glass, she touches it to both of yours. "Persephone is a great planet if treated well." There are rules here and most of the time they are followed because this is a hub of commerce just like the space station, it has a huge reputation and if you are arrested here? A lot will happen. A lot of bad. She has heard of Lila Cheney, she is an alien not a corpse! She does not know the songs well because her life was all about being a warrior and education. But coming to Earth is teaching her to enjoy time with those you care about -- they could be gone before you are ready. Always are. "I am sure our next lead will bring us back here.." She laughs playfully.

says to I N C A N D E S C E N T : A lot of humans like to think they are experts at things they have no real clue about. This gives them a fun platform. Our Alison here is bringing high talent professionalism to our rank amateur pass time *He grins with a wink. Finishing off a drink. A few of the singers after had wound down to slower love songs, or gothier low tunes. Kurt pushed back from the table* Excuse me lovely ladies. I think I will put my rank armature antics on display!*He bamfs away, up to the little stage area before anyone else gets up for any more slow songs. This place needs to rock! Kurt was no professional, but the gypsie family that had raised him was always alight with songs to brighten the spirit, and he had spent time in monasteries with the chanting monks. His range was really more 80's hair band than a "good" singer, but he could use that. Fortunately the alien machine is very well stocked, like a Zune with millions of songs! Songs from all corners of the galaxy from every era. Kurt finds what he wants and hops up on stage. Juggling the mic a moment as it careens end over end between his hand and tail and back as the music starts up. A great song by a artist special to his people and heritage: the great David Hasselhoff!. The song "Looking for Freedom". A rousing rock anthem Kurt hopes to rally the crowd with. The song the Hoff had sung at the Berlin wall itself ! (Sure it was a few months after the Berlin wall fell, but the song was so ubiquitous in the years/decades that followed in Germany younger generations like Kurt thought the man himself had brought down the wall). Kurt belts it out like Bon Jovi screaming out Livin' on a Prayer. He teaches the crowd the chorus, then on the second round as he jumps and waves and uses his circus flair on the stage he gets the alien crowd behind him, waving for them to sing the high parts, the place loud and thrumming now. Crowd: I've been looking for freedom!, Kurt: I've been looking so long! Crowd: I've been looking for freedom!, Kurt: Still the search goes on! Crowd: I've been looking for freedom!. And on and on until he gets most chanting and singing along. The universal rock for freedom! The song ends, kurt bows and poofs off back to the table!*

says to +Nightcrawler+=Token Tea: Kurt! ~she exclaims in delight when you return~ I had no idea...~well, she knew you were a performer at heart with all your antics and acrobatics, but she didn't know you could sing....sort of. But you had the crowd invested and that's really the secret of any sort of performing. Get the crowd to like you, like what you do, it doesn't even matter if you are good at it or not. She finishes the drink she has, then looks around. There are several bar patrons still looking at our little group - whether it's because they are an oddity as (mostly) Earthlings, or because they were the star performers of the night remain to be seen, or because they seem like an easy mark for nefarious shenanigans remains to be seen......

Finding out his sons were alive, spending a few magnificent days with one of them, it was like an odd walking dream he had been sucked into. He hadn't thought much of earth in over a decade now, busy as he had become in the rebellion out here in the stars. Alex had brought much of it back. He sat on the bridge alone, looking out at the passing stars as he sat in the captain seat. Stroking his luxurious exquisitely manly moustache*

I expect the most exciting thing we will have to deal with for the next few days of travel is getting you out of that getup *He grinned, leaning in to bite at the pale neck.

He yells into the com* Ch'od, I need full power to rear shield and max engines, 110% speed! Or else we are about to become chow for those nasty fucking worms and I have a mighty disliking toward being eaten alive today! *Corsair takes control of the ship that was so peacefully flying through the stars moments ago. Twisting crew stomachs as the ship suddenly swerves and dives, erratic evasive maneuvers to avoid another blast. He took a quick look at the view you brought up. The ass-ugly brood craft, all black and slime bio-material. Everything the brood created was birthed or spit up by one of their kind.

You could see the docking tendrils, slithering about like a demonic squid in space, eager to ensnare and consume us. Sensors were picking up an asteroid field to starboard, a few rogue dwarf planets sailing about the black around a fizzling small purple star. He made for it. Yelling to com again* CH'OD!

The little midget creature we had freed from the Shi'ar prison, and were in the process of smuggling out to the rebel base to join the forces against D'ken. Corsair was using all his piloting skills to dive into the asteroid field, dodging about to keep the bigger, less maneuverable Brood thing at bay. The little Jahf arrived and quickly took stock of the situation. Pointing at the viewscreen showing the system, the few small planets, the sputtering weak star. He says "There Corsair, get us close, swing around!" Corsair nods, leaving you to laser any bits that get too close. The ship responds like a dream, swooping down the gravity well into the inner system with every bit of push Ch'od can choke out of the old girl. We blast by astroids and debris far faster than is safe by any standard. Then we graaaze one of the small barren dwarf planets, kicking up dust from the surface before we bounce back up into space again. Swooping as close to the star as our shields can take. Then Jahf cracks his knuckles, and focuses his mysterious powers. We swing around the star once...twice leading the Brood. Jahf reaches out and grabs the closest small planet....and somehow swings it off its orbit. It comes streaking in...colliding with the brood. KNocking the big ugly oozing ship into the small purple star. It engulfs the brood, letting out a belch of a starburs of purply white hot energy as it buuurns the brood up. The ship jets away, steadying. Slowing. Corsair shakes his head, looking down at the midget Jahf. Looking over to you * Little man loves fire.
