Re-made in Japan (open)

[sentinel]

He had to admit, he would've had a hard time finding the sentinel's base without the information he "borrowed" from Apocalypse. He chuckled, still remembering the look of pain and fear on the man's face. So many have tried to defeat him, and one man did just that, but what made him laugh more was where he found out the Sentinel's base was. So after some "persuasion" from members of the staff, he was on the boat heading for Japan. It was only a few days when he saw the land.

"Ah Japan." He said with a smirk as bodies of the passengers laid about him, "The makers of games, movies, and weapons of destruction."

When the ship pulled into the harbor, he turned and looked to the captain, his body changing to match the floor of the ship. An arm shot out, shaping into a spear and impaling the captain through the heart. Having no use for the ship either, he caused it to explode in the dock, injuring more people around it. He then made his way through the cities and towns until he came across what looked to be an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Tokyo.

"Ah, there we are." He said as he entered the factory, seeing a grand site in his eyes.

Giant Sentinels were standing still as statues, some of the machines not fully finished. Belts that held parts and machinery had more dust and cobwebs on them then a haunted house. In the center of it all, on a platform high enough to need an elevator, was the main computer for the whole factory.

"Let's get this party started shall we?" He said with a chuckle.

Using his powers once again, he headed up to the platform which was actually under a room with the computer inside. Once he was in, he looked around the room until he saw the main computer. With another chuckle and a smile, he walked to the computer and placed his hands on it. His hands changed to the same as the console, and soon wires and switches inside the machine began connecting and turning on. Within moments, lights inside the factory came on and the factory came to life. He gave a small laugh as he realized how well his plan was working.

"Now to finish the commands, and bring my new Sentinels into the world." He said with his usual smile.

He punched in the commands that would give him complete control over the sentinels. He changed their commands to not only hunt for mutants, but the humans as well. He then turned on the sentinels that were complete, the heads coming to life and looking to him. He punched in the information to open the door, releasing the Sentinels into the world.

"Go, my creations! Go and destroy all, mutants and humans alike!" He commanded.

"Yes...Master Cain." The Sentinels responded with their monotone voices. They began marching out of the doors and into the world, the ones that were being completed soon followed after. He laughed as he made sure their first target was nearby, just for practice. Tokyo would be the first to go.

[meav]

She didn't know why she was in this district of Tokyo, or Tokyo in general. Ever since she ran into Black Cat, she'd been looking for other Havens that could be alive but she never thought it'd bring her back to Japan... Meav was careful as she flew over the city, when she spotted what looked like... Giant robots? She descended, landing on the roof of the factory, her wings folding up around her torso. Crouching, she carefully made her way to one of the windows, peering into it to try and see what was going on inside.

Nothing could have prepared her for what she saw. Sentinels.

Meav's eyes went wide, her whole body freezing as she watched. Sentinels in Tokyo... They started to move towards the exits, a tall, long haired man finally in sight and obviously the one in charge. She realized to late though that through all her watching, she'd cast a shadow into the building. A shadow, that if that man looked down, would see..! She stumbled backwards, horror piercing through her veins as she realized that if that man wanted, he could send his Sentinels after her...

[cain]

He laughed out loud as he watched the sentinels march out of the factory, heading to Tokyo and where ever else he had programmed into their brains. He looked around, admiring his work. It was then he noticed a shadow being cast into the factory. Curiously he looked in the direction of the shadow and grinned, seeing a small girl there.

"Grab the intruder!" He spoke into the loudspeaker.

The nearest Sentinel to her stopped, looked down at her and held open his hand. It then opened it's hand over her and a metallic tendril launched out to grab her. Cain wanted to see who this girl was, why she was here, and maybe keep her alive depending on what she could offer him...if anything.

[meav]

Watching Sentinels storm out of the Factory was one thing, but having one stop and turn to you was on a completely different orbit all together. Frozen in fear as it towered over her, Meav's wide eyes couldn't look away. She was going to die, no doubt about it... She flinched when the hand started to move towards her, knowing she wouldn't be able to escape. When tendrils were launched... to grab her, she was more then a little shocked. But Tendrils.. She could handle those... Maybe... The first one that touched her was covered in something. Only after a moment was it clear though that it was diamond hard crystal.

[cain]

The tendril changed into hard crystal and continued on it's course. Though the part that came out was crystal, the rest was metal. It wrapped around her, the crystal part sticking out like a sore thumb. The tendril tightened around her, and the Sentinel raised her up and turned towards Cain.

"Bring her to me." His voice spoke over the speaker. The Sentinel brought her towards the platform where Cain lowered himself to meet her. The tendril that held her moved her to the platform and set her down, Cain looking up at the Sentinel, "Go and destroy. That is your mission."

"Yes, Master Cain." The voice spoke as the sentinel turned and marched out with the others.

Cain turned and looked to the girl, curious about her powers now that he had found she was a mutant. Perhaps she could join him in "The Insurrection", but if not, he would have to just kill her instead.

"Interesting power you have, girl, what else can you do?" He asked curiously.

[meav]

Meav held back a cry of pain when the Tendril wrapped tightly around her. Almost to tightly, her body screaming as it was almost crushed. She stumbled when it released her, setting her in front of the man that commanded them, the thin wings that wrapped around her torso quivering from their near destruction.
"What do you want with me...?" Of course she was completely terrified! Who wouldn't, after what just happened, and now being face to face with a man that sent stabs of terror down her spine! She didn't answer his question, unsure why he wanted to know that. But if she were, it wouldn't have been what he hadn't already seen. Creating and manipulating diamond like crystals and the extremely thin and fragile wing that were folded around her body so they wouldn't stick out.

[cain]

He chuckled. She surely had guts enough to demand things of him, even when all he had to do was break those wings on her back and send her plummeting over the edge. Or maybe he would let the Sentinels have fun crushing or playing tug-of-war with her body. He walked up closer to her, placing his hand on the metal rail. The metal moved across his body and he then grabbed her by the wings, pushing her slowly towards the rail.

"Now, now, girl. It's not polite to ask questions without answering them." He said with a cold smile, "Now unless you want your pretty little wings shattered as well as your body, I'd suggest you let me ask the questions."

[meav]

Meav bit her bottom lip to stop her cry as he grabbed her wings. For how fragile they were, even someone touching them was painful. When she saw the drop though, her fear started to build. A drop like that was nothing for someone with wings, but the thought of falling, unable to stop...
"N-Nothing else....! I can only create and manipulate the crystal...!"

What did this man want from her?! Why hadn't he killed her yet? Her stomach sank a little. What was going to happen to her...? If only she'd found the others...

[cain]

He chuckled again, knowing that he was hurting her, and the fear he was getting from her was more then he could ever imagine. If she could create and manipulate crystal, she could be very useful to him. The thought of making crystal sentinels seemed a bit far fetched,but carefully planned it would be very useful to him. He looked behind her to a nearby sentinel.

"Put this into one of the rooms and lock her in. We'll need her."

"Yes, Master Cain." The sentinel behind her answered, a tendril snaking out from his hand and wrapping around her to pick her up and carry her to one of the holding cells in the factory.

"Enjoy your stay, ." He said with a laugh.

[meav]

Put this into one of the rooms and lock her in. We'll need her.

Meav's fear and terror up until now were nothing to what she felt when she heard those words. Her heart felt like it stopped, her breath caught deep in her chest. Her body went hard as stone, unable to move as the Sentinel took her away. A cell... Caged...

She felt like screaming when she was locked in. It was happening all over again. Only this time, no one would come to save her. How long would she be there..? Why hadn't he killed her..? Questions were all she could ask to keep herself from screaming.

[cain]

After a while when she was locked in the cell, Cains eyes appeared in the opening, looking cold and empty at her. She couldn't see, but he was smiling as ideas came into his head.

"Make yourself at home . Your powers will be needed for the future of my creations. And I wouldn't try screaming or calling for help. Nobody will expect you to be here, and I might get annoyed with your constant screaming."

He smiled and flipped up a small compartment panel on the side of the door. Pressing a small button, vents opened up in the cell, causing sleeping gas to start filling up the room. He smiled as he closed the latch.

"There are worse things then death. Remember that." He said with a laugh.

[meav]

Meav had curled in a corner, her arms wrapped tightly around her knees as she stared blankly at the door, wanting... begging it to open. When his eyes appeared in the small opening at the top of the door, she stumbled to her feet. Though she was still terrified, anger was boiling in her veins now. He was the only one that could let her out. As he spoke, she clenched her fists, her whole body trembling. When the latch closed, and vents opened in the room she finally screamed.

Whether Cain would expect it or not was a mystery, but it might surprise him that the door that locked her in the room didn't do a thing to cancel the screech, the note so high and loud it would make anyone's ears ring. A few seconds and her scream died down, only to be followed by what sounded like glass, or crystal in this case, shattering on the door. This didn't die down though, not until the sleeping gas finally got to her. Meav collasped onto the floor, a hand raised to throw more crystals at the door, before dropping as she lost consciousness. The whole floor was covered in crystal fragments, several handfuls actually having stuck to the door but never penetrating it.

[cain]

He only took a few steps away from the door when the shreiking scream came from inside. He gritted his teeth and winced, his hands balling into fists. He would have to make a note to kill the girl when he was able to, but that thought turned to curiosity when he heard thumps against the door. After silence had come, he walked to the door and opened it, looking with curiosity at the shards not imbedded in the metal. He touched one of the shards, his body changing into the same material.

"Hmm...interesting. Perhaps she has more use to her then expected." He said, smiling.

He moved around the room, allowing his crystal form to "absorb" the shards around her and in the metal walls and door. He then turned to the sleeping form of the young girl and smiled, then turned and headed out of the cell, closing the door behind him. As he walked back to the platform, sentinels marching one by one out of the door, screams being heard in the distance as smoke and fire rose into the sky, his form changed to normal.

"Yes...she will prove very useful."

[meav]

~Several hours later~

It was dark when her eyes finally opened again. What time was it...? How long had she been asleep? More questions... And she didn't have the answer to them. Still groggy, she pulled herself upright, but instantly notice that none of the crystal she'd thrown at the door was there. It had vanished... Or removed? She didn't know.

Meav stumbled to her feet, staggering a little before gaining her balance. It was to empty... The room was suffocating her! She needed something to make it go away.. To forget where she was. Touching one of the walls, crystal spread from her hand, covering all the walls before shaping into what she wanted. Trees, bushes, flowers, anything to make the room seem bigger.

When she finished she stumbled back to take it in. Not much better... but a little was better then nothing. The crystal curved and grooved to make it look like the room extended on, into a crystal forest. Though she was proud of her work, she still felt like she was suffocating, and now she'd noticed how hungry and thirsty she was. Meav just curled up in the corner, leaning against her crystal artwork as she stared at the untouched door, wondering what he had in store for her. Would he starve her to death? Perhaps. But right now, death almost seemed welcoming.

[cain]

Cain sat in the room high above the factory. He had to admit he was enjoying the sight of so many sentinels being made and sent to do his bidding. But he was beginning to get bored, flipping one of the few remaining shards he had taken from the cell in his hand. His attention was quickly brought to a nearby monitor showing his prisoner was moving.

"Ah, she awakes."

Slipping the shard into his pocket, he moved to the kitchen and grabbed some food, bread and water and other items. He then walked towards the cell door, opening a small compartment at the bottom of the door and slipping in the tray.

"Eat up, girl, wouldn't want you to die on me...yet."
