Ultimate Marvel II

Thing

Ben saw the blast rip one arm from the Sentinel, unfortunately the other arm loosed a volley of missles straight at them. Ben shouted, "Incoming!", and rushed the gunner and Bobby back into the corridor.

The Thing's back was to the missles as they hit, destroying the laser cannon. The resulting explosion flung him through several walls and he laid there in a daze with rubble raining down on his body.

Bobby went to see how Ben was. A groan and a muttered, "Now I'm gettin' mad' as the Thing worked himself free, told Bobby that Ben was OK and ready to keep fighting.
 
Gambit

::He tore the weapon from another Mandroid and as he did he saw Magma take the shots in the chest. He quickly charged the gun in his hand then tossed it back to the Mandroid watching as the gun exploded and sent shrapnel into the suit.

He vaulted back to Colossus and the two girls as Wolverine disposed of the mandroid he was merely toying with.::

You alright Cheire?
 
Magma

Magma reached up her hand for Gambit to help her up. As she got to her feet, she winced and pulled her arms in towards her body. "This hurts, but I do not think its serious. I will be ok here for a few minutes, give me a little time to recover. " As Magma started to lean up against the wall, a loud siren started to wail.
 
Iceman

Bobby looked over at the Thing with a little awe. He was used to Colossus shrugging off such damage, but to see someone else do it was amazing. He loved his power dearly, but would love to have a little more resilence like the Thing had.

Bobby walked up to the next door in the complex. He put his hand on the pad and waited for it to open. He did not even hear a click from the door. It seemed that the attack had mangled the security system. "Um , Mr Thing, you may have to knock in this door. The electronic locks are not working and I can not get us in. "
 
Wolverine finished off the last Mandroid and than ran over to the rest of his team. As he approached them, a siren went off and red lights started flashing. "It looks like they're on to us, team. We have to haul ass out of this corridor." Looking around, he saw the hole that Colossus had caused with the Mandroid. "I think that should be a good way to go." As they were about to through the hole, Wolverine went back and took the helmet off of one of the Mandroids. He put it over his head and, seeing the looks his team gave him, said "This way I can hear where they are through their comm system."

With the aid of the Mandroid helmet, Wolverine managed to guide the team through the corridors of the underground base without running into more guards. After a few minutes, they came to huge metallic doors. Wolverine popped his claws and slashed at the electronic lock on the side of the door. The doors opened slowly, revealing a large Sentinel manufacturing room. Many of the Sentinels were in varios stages of repair or construction, but Wolverine counted 8 Sentinels that were battle-ready, and they were looking towards the just opened doors. The console for the Sentinels could be seen on the other side of the room, with the Sentinels in between it and them. "Well, it looks like we are going to have to fight our way through this one as well," Wolverine said, getting into a stance.
 
Iron Man received Jean's telepathic message and glided in quickly towards where Temera lay. He settled down, and quickly ran to her, lifting her gently and flying her back to the jet. He set her down in the cargo bay. He gave her a parting glance as he rocketed from the back of the plane as he continued to harass the Sentinels.
 
Colossus

Peter followed Logan into the room. "HOLY COW.......this is going to be a tough fight. What kind of battle plan do you have in mind Logan? I doubt if brute force will take us through this battle. "
 
Colonel Stryker

Stryker looked over at President Humphrey. "Sir I have good news to tell you. We are currently launching simultaneous missions against three mutant strongholds. I have assurences from my technicians that our overwhelming strength will win through and crush these mutants.

Within a week, the entire mutant species, these so-called Homo Superiors will either be dead or incarcerated. I have had some captured by the Sentinels for further study. You never know when that kind of research may come in handy.

Well Mr President, I have to leave now and get back out in the field. I just wanted to personally come here and give you an update. When the mutant menace is officially finished , I will come back with a full report. Have a good day Mr. President. "

Stryker shook hands with the President before exiting the room. He looked back at the door with barely concealed longing. He knew that all he needed was some patience and he would be pushing President Humphrey right out of his office. Not with the power of voters, but with the power of his Sentinels.
 
Magma and Magik

Illyana looked Amara straight in the eye. "Are you sure you are ok for this? I am worried that you will overextend your power and hurt yourself."

Amara smiled at Illyana's concern. "Do not worry for me. A daughter of Nova Roma is never concerned with overusing her power. The team needs my best and they shall have it. Come on lets go. " Putting her arm out for her friend, Amara leaned on Illyana's shoulder as she walked down the hallway.
 
Sentinel

The central control circuit turned on the eight mostly assembled Sentinels that were in the factory. The AI computer in charge of the facility had detected the intruders when the alarm had gone if. It had seen the video footage from the security cameras. The ease at which these intruders dispatched the mandroids gave the AI pause for a moment. It was confident , however, that the sentinels could deal with this threat.

The two closest Sentinels pulled away from their wall power sources and moved towards the mutants. Not having analyzied the power of the intruders, the Sentinels went with alpha attack plan. A barrage of missiles were launched while their laser cannon was heated to be ready to fire.
 
Thing

The Thing smiled at Iceman while he ripped the door off. It took him two tries, he had to use both hands. Leave it to Professor X to put in high quality stuff, thought Ben. They went room to room that way, but most were empty. The people they did find followed them in a staggling line. It would have been almost comical, except for the circumstances.
 
Iceman

After checking through about ten rooms and finding only a few children left, Bobby realized where they must be. "Mr. Grimm, I know where they are . There is an underground bunker that I had completely forgot about. I would imagine that Moira has moved most of the the patients there. It would be the safest place if the outer defense are breached like they are. Follow me, I think I remember where they are. "
 
Thing

The Thing followed Bobby deeper into the island fortress, following behind their rescued charges. Ben was muttering to himself and hitting fist into palm. "Just let anybody try to hurt these kids, I'll flatten' 'em" Ben's features grew ruddier, the more he thought about it.

Gambit

::His instincts took over as he watched the sentinels push off the wall and head at them. His staff in hand he Valuted and dodged the first barrage of missles. Soon he was behind a piece of equipment shielding himself from the shrapnel caused by the explosions the missiles caused.::

This is turning out to be one hellova day....

::Gambit found a cart on wheels, chairged it and then kicked it at the first of the two sentinels::
 
Colossus

Watching Gambit dodge some of the missile, Peter realized that he had better do his part. He went into the room and stood in the front of the doorway, blocking the missiles from entering the corridor. He was pretty sure that his organic armor could stand the blast of the missile so he was determined to protect the others.

Taking a more proactive approach, he tried to time some swings to intercept the missiles so that they did not reach his body. He was successful on a few hits, knocking some of the missiles down to the ground. But three made it through his swings and detonated at the same time when they struck his body. The blast sent his body flying into the wall behind him. The impact knocked the wind out of him, forcing him to his knees to recover.
 
Sentinel

The lead sentinel was suprised to see their missile barrage so easily defeated. His optic sensors detected the glowing cart coming towards himself and the Sentinel next to him. His thinking computer quickly went through security protocol and decided that the cart was a danger. Training its laser cannon on the cart, the Sentinel blasted it to pieces before it was able to roll to the robots. The resulting explosion , however, blinded their sensors for a moment as an overload blasted through their circuits.

The other six sentinels that were operational began to untangle themselves from the power tethers connecting them to the wall. Two were on each side wall as well as four on the opposite wall from the entrance. The machines effeciently were able to come loose and they started to warm up their weapons systems.

Wolverine watched the team do what they did best. He called out "Magik, follow me." He then ran towards the nearest Sentinel and, with his claws out, proceeded to cut through the Sentinels' leg. The lower part of the leg detached from the rest of the body an the Sentinel lost its' balance and fell over. When the Sentinel hit the ground, he told Magik to finish it off.
 
Gambit

::A look of disapointment crossed his lips as he watched as a sentinel blew up his cart before it met it's target.::

Wouldn't you know, they wont let Gambit have any fun...

::Seeing the sentenels blinded by the explosion, He crept behind one of the ones exiting it power station. He quickly grabbed a cable from the wall, yanked it down, charged it, then wrapped it around one of the sentenels legs.

The explosion sent the sentenel tumbling down so that it landed face down. Gambit lept up onto the sentenel's back, pried it open enough to reach his hand in, then charged everything and anything he could touch.::
 
Magik

Magik followed Logan into the room. She watched as he sliced into the Sentinel's leg. She laughed with reckless abandon as the Sentinel fell almost at her feet. Nodding her understanding of Logans idea, Magik drew her soulsword. Pure white light flashed off the sword, blinding the other occupants in the room. Very few times in her conflicted life were Illyana's motives pure. Her soulsword normally reflected the state of her soul when it was drawn. Destroying the machines that threatened to kill all her friends and family was akin to a holy quest for this young lady.

She rushed towards the Sentinel and took stock for a second. She quickly brought her sword down in a short muscular arc to sever the other leg. Hopefully that would keep the machine down on the ground, or at least at a height more accessable for the mutants. On her backswing, she luckily deflected a laser that one of the other sentinels had sent her way. She berated herself to pay more attention to her work. She set to it with abandon.

She decided that the next spot to hit would be the neck, since normally most of the sensitive components in the sentinels were located in the head. She dodged a clumsy swing of the sentinels arm, as she jumped on its back. She quickly swung her sword in a series of lightning fast attacks that severed the head from the rest of the robot. The arms stopped flailing abruptly, as if someone had turned out the power. Illyana called to Magma, "Come on Amara, give me a hand here. "
 
Magma

Magma ran towards her friend. A stray blast of laser flew by her face, singeing her left ear a little. Holding it in pain, she rolled out of the way of another blast as the Sentinels against the wall started to send a array of laser blasts towards the mutants. She quickly unleashed her power, using it to create a small wall between herself and where Illyana waited for her. She could hear the wall take damage, but it held.

She moved quickly to Illyana's side and realized what her friend wanted her to do. She sidestepped to the severed neck and head of the robot. She knelt down near the head and pointed her arms towards the circuits inside. A contracted sizzle was heard as Amara's power drew pure magma from the earths core through the metal floor of the factory. A redtinged stream flushed into the head of the robot. A steady ticking showed the damage being caused to the circuits of the robot. Its normally illuminated eyes turned dim as all its circuits were melted in a fire as hot as the apocalypse.
 
Iceman

Bobby led Mr Grimm through a series of corridors and connecting rooms. He yelled back over his shoulder. "Its just up ahead, I remember its after this room. " Speeding up, Bobby opened the door and ran face first into the backwall of the linen closet attached to the room. "OWwwww.....", Bobby turned back to Mr. Grimm, thankful that he had not been running too. "I thought it was this way."

"I have an idea. Kids, you are all here, do you have any idea where we are?"

Bobby watched as they all shook their heads no. One of them even told Bobby that they were mostly confined to their rooms because of their treatments. Bobby looked over at Mr. Grimm. "Well, I guess we will have to try and backtrack to find our way. "
 
Thing

The Thing snorted as he led the way back. Right, he knows the way, yeah right, Ben thought. "Iceman, take the back", Ben ordered. They soon got back to a familiar place.

Ben led the way down another path, moving slower and looking for signs of a rapid passage.
 
Wolverine watched as his team worked together like a cohesive unit. He then got an idea into his head. He called over Colossus and suggested that he pick up the severed Sentinel's leg and use it as a weapon.

As this was being done, Wolverine dodged blaster fire and ran up to another Sentinel. He used his claws to climb up the back of the Sentinel. When he was on the shoulder, he cut a hole into the back of the robot's neck and began slashing and pulling at the wiring in there. There were a lot of sparks and then a small explosion that sent Wolverine hurtling through the air, hitting the floor 15 feet away. As he shook the dizziness out of his head, he saw the Sentinel falling to the floor, knocking into another Sentinel on its' way down.
 
Colossus

Peter nodded to Logan thanking him for the idea. Getting up from his knees, he grabbed the loose Sentinel leg and began to whirl it in an arc. Peter watched as the Sentinel that Logan deactivated fell into another. The second Sentinel was knocked over. As it was falling to the ground, Peter took a mighty swing at the robot. The leg splintered, but not before it knocked the head clean off the Sentinel. Wiping the metal shrapnel from the impact from his uniform, Peter started swinging his massive fists into the neck area of the downed sentinel. He wanted to make sure that it would not be getting back up again.
 
Jean Grey

Jean used her power to fly to the plane as quickly as possible. She knelt down next to Temera. Checking her vital signs, Jean realized that mostly Temera had been knocked out and was showing signs of exhaustion. She gently put a pillow under Temera's head and took out her medical kit.

Using the training that the professor had given her, she patched up a few of the small cuts that Temera had. Placing an icepack on the largest bruise, Jean snapped open a packet of smelling salts. Holding it under Temera's nose, Jean waited for her to revive.
