It's Time to Make a Move (open)

[Victor Creed]

Victor stared at the screen infront of him. He had been sitting infront of that computer console for hours, reading what information he could find on Graydon's current dealings. The monitor continued to scroll some information in front of him. He tapped a few buttons to reveal a few tid bits of new information. He was looking for something he could use to his advantage. Something that would get the pawn out on the board and lull someone into a false sense of security.

What was Victor's motivation? His main goal lately had been to make sure Graydon would die. But death was too simple, making someone completely miserable before death..now that was an accomplishment. The idea of completely ruining his political career before it started had come to mind. But even that idea made Victor cringe. While he had the brains to create something that mischevious...it still seemed rather worthless. He should just track the bastard down, hang him up by his feet then slice his throat open.

In the end Victor couldn't decide what to do, and that was the only saving grace the man had. Either way he was tired of reading about and seeing the reports on the news about the anti-mutant rallys. It was time for the mutants stand up for themselves and show the world who was really in charge. Problem was that the X-men would surely protect them...

[The Phoenix]

Phoenix awoke to ripped sheets covering her bruised and scratched up body. She stood up and stretched out. A wince crossed her face as she stretched her sore muscles. As soon as the wince left her face it was replaced with a smile as she went to get a shower. The hot water splashed across her body and soothed her some what. After her shower she made herself some food and find something to do.Finding nothing she decided to find Victor. He had not been here when she had awakened and she was bored.

Her journey took her to ruins of a warehouse. Even if she couldn't read his mind she could still feel his presence so it wasn't that hard to find him. Her mood was worsened a little as she had to walk through a long labyrinth. She had always hated these things and she it didn't help that she had no idea where she was going. Yes, she could feel his precedence but that couldn't help her through this maze. When she did find him her mood hadn't changed that much and was pretty sour. She was wearing a simple pair of low rider jeans and a black tank top with a leather jacket keeping her warm. She sauntered up behind him and leaned over to see what he was looking at. News about Graydon. She guessed their little spat had pulled out his intense desire to see him dead. She leaned up against the desk as she looked at him.

"I'm bored."

[Victor Creed]

The Brotherhood's defenses alerted Victor to the minx that was wandering through the labyrinth. A camera showed that it was her and it only made him smirk. It seemed that he wasn't going to be able to wander off very far without her following. He left the main defenses off so that all she had to worry about was finding her way through the maze.

His attention returned to his work until she finally made her way into the room he as in. He had ditched his overcoat on a nearby chair and wore his usual military style clothing. He wasn't big on fashion statements. But his attention barely even diverted from what he was doing to look at the gorgeous woman that leaned upon the desk next to him.

She was bored huh? Truth be told, so was he. He had spent far too much time not doing anything. He finished what he was reading before he turned his attention finally towards the blonde standing next to him. "Sorry to hear that. I'm surprised you haven't found your own little bit of fun by now." After all why would she take so much time to follow him when she could be pestering some human somewhere.

[The Phoenix]

Phoenix rolled her eyes at his comment. Yes, she could have gone off and found her own fun. She could have tortured and killed some humans but for some reason she didn't. She couldn't figure out why though she just didn't. Her mind had been on other things. Like the blood that had been spilled last night in the bedroom. She made a mental note to pick up some more sheets and bedding the next time she went out shopping. At the rate that they were going they would have to buy out a whole department store for their bedding. Of course she didn't mind. She just shrugged at his comment and moved over to a spar chair not too far away. She lounged on it and crossed her long and slender legs.

"Thought we could cause some mayhem together. Its always more fun with two people. More of a game."

Phoenix smirked at him as she said this. She remembered the little game that they had played the second time they had met. Who could kill more humans? It was one of her favorite games now. She brushed her blonde hair out of her eyes and looked him over. God, he was handsome. the thoughts that ran through her head at that moment would have even made him cringe.

"I'm sick of this place anyways. I'm bored with it."

[Victor Creed]

"This place?" He arched a brow at her then chuckled slightly while he turned his head back to the computer console. "This place has everything we could ever need. Especially in planning the destruction of the human race."

He tapped a few buttons and suddenly on a larger screen above their heads appeared a map of the world. Then suddenly the map was covered with red and white areas. "We're starting to outnumber them." While he wasn't able to tap into the X-men's information that was gathered by cerebro, he did still have information back when Magneto had his connections.

He stayed quiet for a moment while he contemplated something while looking up at that map. The red represented the humans and the white were mutants. It seemed that they were reaching close to being in even populations. "The key is to gathering the like minded mutants. Using them to make outright assaults upon the heavily populated areas." He pushed another button that jumped the map into the future if what he said had happened. "Once the dense populations are taken care of, then simple natural selection can kick in. Humans become the ones that are afraid to walk the streets at night and hide in the sewers for refuge." He smirked then turned his head to look at her again. Perhaps he was just rambling, he half expected her to simply give him her 'I'm bored' statement again.

[The Phoenix]

"Humans are only going to be good for slaves and entertainment. That's all they're good for now."

She looked up at the map. The white and the red dots. Victor was right mutants were catching up in numbers to the humans. It made her smile to think that soon mutants would be taking their rightful place above the humans. Her mind wandered to the future and how it would be. She could see herself ruling over the humans and even the mutants. The thing that surprised her was she could see Victor there by her side ruling with her.

She stood up and walked over to Victor. Her moves were fluid and cat like. Yes she was bored but she hadn't been talking about bored with the place they were in now. She was bored with this city that they were in. She looked upon the screen again at the over populated areas where the humans resided. A thought crossed her mind of ravaging those areas and killing them all. Her hands covered in their blood. Her eyes had that same fire in them that she had last night but it was slightly different.

"That day will come soon and when it does we'll be the ones above them all. You and I."

[Victor Creed]

The funny thing was, even though Victor agreed with eliminating the humans from the planet. He wasn't quite looking for the dictator approach. After all he had fought in several American wars. And even though he may have not done the nicest thing in those wars, he still believed in freedom. The humans needed to die for the freedom of mutants. And he knew that Phoenix was looking to be on top. On top of humans and mutants alike. And of course he enjoyed the idea of being the strongest and most powerful mutant. Who knew what would happen, but in the meantime, he'd have fun encouraging the fire of the wild woman by his side.

"Is that so?" He questioned rhetorically as his clawed hand reached out suddenly to grasp her hip and pull her into his lap. "Is that what you really want? A ton of people worshiping you like some demented goddess of death?" He smirked to her knowing that she'd just agree with him and he didn't mind that at all. He was just curious to see how far she really would go. He had seen her kill people of course, but even Xavier thought that he was remorseful for everyone he killed. Maybe she could be the same way.

[The Phoenix]

Phoenix laughed a bit as she was pulled into Victor's lap. Her eyes were still lit with that fire. She felt his claws on her skin and it made her shiver. Her thoughts strayed to the future still and the possibilities. She often heard people talk about freedom but she never really believed in it. Who was really free anyways? Everyone was tied down by something. If not themselves than by someone else. Phoenix had never been tied down before. She was a true free spirit. But recently she had been doubting that statement. Maybe Victor was tying her down now. She had often thought about leaving him and being free again. But she couldn't seem to pull herself away from him long enough to leave. She had sought him out today instead of going to doing something for herself. What was this man doing to her? He was effecting her more than anyone has in her entire lifetime.

She straddled his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck. Her fingers trailing in his hair as she looked at him. She smirked as he asked if she wanted people to worship her. In a sick sort of way she did.

"I am the goddess of death. Would you want me any other way?"

[Victor Creed]

Victor's hands roamed over her legs before they finally rested upon her rear. "No I wouldn't want you any other way. I enjoy smelling blood upon your skin." He smirked to her with that revealed fang of his. But those eyes stared into her own for a long moment, perhaps looking for something inparticular.

"It is only inevitable that the world cringes to the sound of your name." Was he flirting? Probably as close to flirting as he would get.

"But if that is going to happen. We'll need a plan." He pulled one hand away from her so he could push another button on the console. "I doubt Graydon is going to really cancel that rally that you stapled him to a wall for. So, that just means we'll have to crash it. The last time I did, it was rather glorious." Of course he wasn't going to mention the fact that he lost his mind and Artemis got him out of there after he passed out. It would have only been better if that damned wolf hadn't lost his chance to kill Graydon right then.

"We can have the Brotherhood over take the whole thing. It will be an anti-human rally by the time we're done with it." He chuckled darkly while looking up to her from her perch atop his lap.

[The Phoenix]

Phoenix gripped his neck and pulled him into a kiss he couldn't escape. When she pulled back she looked him deep in the eyes with that smirk of hers. He was right. People will cringe at her name. They should cringe at her name. It was only right. The world at her feet and people worshiping her like a living goddess.

Phoenix glanced at the screen again and soon saw information pertaining to the rally Graydon was still holding. She knew that he wasn't going to cancel it. He was Victor's son after all. Even if Victor wouldn't admit it Graydon was a lot like him in many ways. Phoenix could see that the moment she had stepped into his office. The thought of crashing the rally with the Brotherhood only made her smile more. She would love killing all of those damned humans that were there fighting for a world without mutants. Didn't they know that it was never going to happen? They were here to stay and soon the humans would be their slaves. She looked down at him. Her blonde hair falling into her face.

"Hmm anti-human rally....I like the sound of that."
