Honey...I'm Home! (OPEN)

[Victor Creed]

Victor chuckled to himself as he stepped over the threshold of the mansion's broken doors. It had only been hours since he had been here before but now he was back. This time it wasn't anger that drove him but tactics. He had blown through this Mansion tearing it to pieces as he went and who was there to stop him? No one? Even Jean Grey had been hindered by the possession of Phoenix. And that other thing from his past...she only watched. So where was everyone? Had the mansion been abandoned? Well then it was time for him to plant the Brotherhood's flag. A victory that he predicted not many had managed before. Then again he wasn't stupid, he knew this was somehow a coincidence of some sort. Changing of the guard perhaps? Either way...why not capitalize upon it?

Heavy boots crunched the broken glass beneath him as he walked further into the mansion, past his trail of destruction and into where the building had been left untouched. His long overcoat trailing behind him silently as well as hiding the view of the shirt and combat pants that he wore. He reached over to flick on the light switch with one of his metallic claws. Still no one. Deafening silence was all that greeted him. That wicked smirk crossed his lips again. He took a few sniffs of the air, taking in the scents that moved through the room. There were a few fresher than others, there were still those that remained? "Ollie Ollie oxen-free....come out come out where ever you are..." Victor spoke with that smirk still in place while he slowly strolled along a random path. Predatory eyes looked from left to right to see just who he'd run into.

Would it be someone to stop him from his growing plans? Or would it just be a silly student he could either listen to their screams or tell them that it'd be better just to do as he said.

This was going to be fun...

[The Phoenix]

Phoenix walked behind him. She knew what type of mood he was in and she knew that she had to just let him do his things. But she couldn't help the smirk that passed her lips as she watched him. He was in his element and she loved every second of it. She was excited as well. They were at the Xavier Mansion. It wasn't that long since they had left there and Victor had done a number on the place. Now it was time to claim what was going to be theirs. This mansion was theirs now. The X-Men hadn't fought back so now the Brotherhood was taking control. Finally.

A small hand clenched her own harder when they neared the mansion. Small claws pricked her skin. Phoenix looked down at Fallon as she walked. She could feel her daughter's fear rising. She knew that she didn't like the mansion but that was the X-Men's fault for kidnapping her and forcing her to grow up. Phoenix picked her up and soothed her with her mind telling her to was going to be alright. She kept telling her this and that her father would protect them. Fallon looked up and watched Victor closely. She wanted to go walk with him but Phoenix held her back. She couldn't let Fallon get close to him right now while he was in this type of mood. Who knew what Victor would do. She walked a little closer to Victor and laughed a little as she heard him calling out to the remaining students or teachers. She hugged her daughter closer and smiled wickedly.

"Welcome to your new home, baby girl."

[Alexandra Kavi]

Alex walked around the school she shouldn't believe the mess it was in the school had been attacked again. Alex was boiling in the inside this was it she couldn't handle people hurting her friends anymore people dieing around her all all the freaking time.

She stormed herd some people in the next room and walked in her arms crossed over her chest yes every one in the school would call her a freaking idiot for this expully when it was creed but she didn't care anymore she didn't want people walking all over her she was done being the week one.

She glared at the man who had broken into the school yes he was freaky looking yes Alex was shacking a little that anyone could see that easily "I want you out of the school know you don't belong hear no one else needs to get hurt" she snapped her voice some what shacking as she looked at the wild man and the women behind him and the child.

[Victor Creed]

Victor frowned as no one came out to his little taunt. They really were hiding weren't they? Where were all of those blasted pacifists that called themselves X-men? His eyes turned behind him while his body shifted to turn and half face Phoenix as she lingered nearby. His eyes met hers for a moment and glanced to the girl she held closely, his daughter. It was funny to see her holding the child so protectively. But before he could mention anything of his observation his attention was diverted to a frail flake of a girl.

A dark smirk crossed his lips as she fluffed herself up and tried to seem so intimidating. It was admirable really but he wasn't one to just turn and go just because some girl told him to. And just as she finished talking he started to laugh. Not some gentle chuckle but a full out laugh. Who did this girl think she was talking to? He didn't care what her power was, it wasn't anything that he couldn't overwhelm. After all he had over a hundred years of experience one the little whelp. Slowly the large man walked towards the girl, assuming she'd scitter off and run before he came anywhere near close enough to grab her.

"Why don't you make me girlie."

[Alexandra Kavi]

Alex blinked a little when he started to laugh at her jaw clenched he didn't even view her as a problem but who could really blame him. She took a step back as he came closer to her he was so much bigger stronger everything Alex's wasn't it may of not been a good idea to go at this alone but there was no turning back now if she ran it would just prove that she was week she looked at the damage of the school her home for the last almost 7 years the longest she had ever lived in one place no one was going to take this away form her.

Alex tried to relax and not to run as her body shock when she noticed something the man's sight hearing smell, it was all different like an animal a crazy idea came in her head he may of had the upper hand but she could bring him a notch or two down easy. She steeped back again and looked at him her power dulling his snennces so they where like a normal humans and alex seemed to disappear to the 3 people there as see took one more step back. She just hoped that maybe the man wouldnt like his sight and stuff being messed with and leave she knew that she wouldn't like it if she got blindfolded suddenly and with so much changing at once it at lest trow him off for a bit she hoped.

[Victor Creed]

Victor's grin faded slightly as he noticed his senses weren't as sharp as usual. It felt like someone sealed him into a glass jar. It was strange but nothing that was keeping him from his approach of the girl. At least until she just vanished. Predatory eyes glanced back and forth to try and find her, see if there was any sort of glimmer that would give away her location. A sniff of the air was given as well to try and 'smell her out'. But being in that 'bubble' she created it was harder to find that scent...unless she was stupid enough to be wearing perfume that day.

But Alex forgot about the rest of them now didn't she? Phoenix would be just as determined to take the mansion over as he was and for the time being he could easily do without even giving this girl the time of day. But he felt like throwing his weight around a bit. After all it would help the others fall in line. His large frame turned to face Phoenix and Fallon, seeming to ignore Alex now that she was invisible and he couldn't sense her. Unfortunately Alex was only paying attention to Victor, and to even his surprise Fallon rose her hand up and pointed to where Alex was. The small girl certainly took after her father more it seemed. A wicked smirk crossed his lips while he reached his hand out without even looking in that direction and grasped Alex's neck. Sure he couldn't see her but his memory was just as sharp as his other senses and memorizing her height was enough to give him good odds of grabbing hold since his own smelling sense wasn't working properly. And that was only thanks to the girl he assumed.

"Tsk tsk...is this how you treat your new Headmaster?" He laughed again, unable to hold it back the statement alone being far too funny to him.

[The Phoenix]

Phoenix stood there holding Fallon as she saw the young girl walk in. She remembered her from when Victor had brought her to the mansion before Fallon was born. She didn't like the girl back then and she didn't like her right now either. She seemed to have gained some courage though and was no standing up to Victor. Phoenix laughed though when she saw it. You had to be insane or just plain stupid to stand up to a man like him. She may be a little insane herself since she had stood up to him on multiple occasions. But she could do that. She was sleeping with him and the mother of his child after all and they loved each other even if they probably won't admit it to each other again.

Sh wrapped her arms around Fallon and whispered to the little girl in her arms about how her daddy was going to take care of this and they didn't have to worry. Fallon flexed her fingers and Phoenix saw her claws coming out more. She squirmed in Phoenix's arms wanting to get down and help Victor but Phoenix held her back. She would have her own chance soon. Phoenix leaned against the wall with her daughter and watched. Her powers seemed to be rising the longer the fight went on and then she noticed Victor looking around like she didn't know where the girl was. Those stupid powers that girl had but Fallon was quick to help her father out and Phoenix smirked seeing Victor gripping the girl around her neck.

"Victor maybe w should kill this one. Or at least paralyze her so Fallon can get some practice in. She really did want to help her slice her up just now."

[Rex Willaims]

Rex was coming back from a trip into town when he saw the state the school was in. The front yard looked as if it had become a battlefield with all of the defenses the school held were all destroyed. Running up the path when Rex finally made it to the front doors they had both been ripped off their hinges. A little bit of panic and adrenaline rushed through Rex as he made his way further into the mansion, his mind going into overdrive conjuring images of what he might witness when he came upon the scene of Victor chocking Alex.

Quickly hiding behind a wall it was obvious that the people in the other room hadn't noticed him yet, they were to preoccupied with whatever Alex had done. Taking a deep breath Rex knew he had to do something fast or Alex was as good as dead, the blonde haired women even said so.

Closing his eyes Rex concentrated on transforming into something that would help Alex. Stepping out from behind the wall he had taken to hiding behind Rex took aim at Victor and fired, having transformed his arm into a gun. “Let it her go!”

[Alexandra Kavi]

Alex smirked a little when she figured it worked that was until the little girl pointed at her and before alex could even do anything she had creeds grip around her neck.
"shit" she muttered when the shock of it pushed the illusions away so her powers where no longer working on creed why couldn't she just hold something like that when she get hit or something. Her eyes widened at what phoenix and said she struggled she wasn't going to die not today and not by this guy hear and she didn't want to get paralyzed either.Alex glared at creed when he said it was no way to treat the new head master well hell he wasn't going to be the head master of this school ever not if she had anything to say about it her eyes glared at him with a fire in them that she wasn't going to just lay down and let him walk around but there was still fear in there that he be able to see.

She didnt know what to do part of her was thinking of a plane that she didn't really want to do but that was when Rex had come in and yelled to let her go she looked at him with the corner of her eye was he crazy well he was just as crazy as she was. She winced when she saw the gun and Rex fired. she just hoped that creed wouldn't use a 82 pound flesh shield that was already in his hand that was kind of named Alex.

[Victor Creed]

"No use practicing on something that's defenseless." What was the fun in that anyway. Amber eyes stared at Alex for a long moment. He was trying to decide what to do with the girl until he suddenly felt his large frame jerk slightly from an all too familiar impact sensation.

So there was some fight left in the mansion after all, and it wasn't just the girl that was in his grasp. Funny part was that the boy actually thought that bullet would do something. Very funny. Infact, Victor even laughed. The grip of his hand grew tighter upon the girl's throat. Before those animal eyes finally turned to look upon the boy who came out of no where. "Let her go? After you shot me? Hmph. You don't know how to negotiate well." Of course Victor's healing factor was already fast at work pushing the bullet from his body to let it hit the ground. The only evidence that the bullet actually hit him was the hole that was left in his clothes with a trace amount of blood. "What do you really expect to do boy? I can crush her throat at any moment...so you can either turn around and save yourself. Give into the new situation...or continue to resist and find yourself and this girl just as dead as the others I've left here." Sure it wasn't the best negotiations of his own but this way he was getting his point across. They could stay and enter the new regime, or they could run and never turn back. He really could care less. Either way his victory seemed secured.

[Rabid]

Scent brought her here. That was all that she knew. She had actually been keeping close quarters to Victor this short time since they met, even though she kept herself out of sight. This was her way of getting used to him in her surroundings. She was aloof to new ideas, and environments by nature, and new people took a long time for her to get used to, though for some reasons he became used to Victor fairly quickly, and slowly came closer, and closer as she went out into the city. It may have seemed strange, but she did not make any attempt to conceal herself or move stealthily when she was following him. There did not seem to be a point. His enhanced senses would pick up the simplest of scents or creaks as she moved.

Today she was led somewhere that was interesting. It seemed to be a mansion, and the scent of children seemed only somewhat fresh as she moved across the roof with a laziness to her step. She could sense the distress inside, and was fairly curious to see what was going on inside. Slowly, she pushed herself into a crouch before gracefully scaling down to the ground before peaking through one of the windows with half closed eyes. Ohh.. interesting. Victor Creed seemed to be having some fun today. Rabid slowly stalked to the front of the mansion before going into the already open front door. Her bristled tail slowly swished back, and forth as she scented the air. She could smell food.

It did not take her long to sneak through the mansion to the kitchen that was all, but trashed. There was food here. She could smell it. It might have not been the freshest to some, but it smelt delicious to her. Slowly, she moved over to the refrigerator, and pulled it open. BACON! Her gaze widened as she stared at the packet of gooey, red meat before she tore open one end of it with her teeth. Her tail was raised high in excitement, and content as she took a large bite out of the slabs. It took a couple more bites before she relieved the bacon strips from the packaging, and into one hand. The packaging hit the floor as she shoved three pieces into her mouth, and started to basically purr in enjoyment. Oh, she enjoyed raw meat way to much.

Satisfied with the meat in her hands, she moved out from the kitchen, and decided to find the other group of mutants. It did not take her long, but she kept her distance. The woman gave her a sense of dominance, which meant for her to not go closer, and with the child being there it just made her less likely to go towards mama bear. So, she kept herself down at the other end of the hallway on a chair that was randomly strewn across the floor. She popped another piece of bacon in her mouth, and watch intently. Her tail was up, and twitching, and the tips of her ears were pointed forward in concentration. She seemed to be studying the moves of the other mutants, and Victor. It was interesting, and strangely enough she was learning from this. She swallowed the piece of bacon in her mouth, and popped in another.

[Rex Willaims]

Okay, so plan A failed. Not that he actually expected to do any damage to the older mutant he was just hoping that he would surprise him enough for him to let go of Alex and let her get away, but obviously that plan failed and it was now onto plan B, whatever that was going to be. He hadn’t really planned that far ahead yet.

Victors threat put Rex’s mind into overdrive. He had to come up with something fast or both him and Alex were going to end up dead, though he knew he could never take on Victor y himself. Not really. Maybe if Alex was conscious they stood a chance but with the way things were going the odds were not in their favor. Yet Rex couldn’t bring himself to just on Alex either.

Rex looked at the wall closet to him and noticed the home system attached to the wall. Rex could use his technopathy to hack into the security system and maybe be able to by enough time to get Alex out. It was a long shot but he had to try something didn’t he?

[Alexandra Kavi]

Alex gasped for air, this sucked her mind was racing trying to think of a way out of this with out A. passing out B. dieing C. being a play toy for the little girl, D. what ever other bad thing that she could think of why she was losing brain cells do to lack of oxagan she squirms a bit. Well Rexs idea was full of shit even Alex knew this was Creed, dah bullets wouldn't hurt him. "your a dam idiot Rex" she gasped the world getting slight more daisy as she did talking wasn't a good idea on her part.
She needed to get away rex wasn't goting to be helpful and alex could only really think of the lack of air she was getting and the pain that was building up. she closed her eyes for what felt like a half a second but was most likely much more time Rex wasn't doing anything she chouldnt relay on him for this she had to take care of her self for once she used her powers on creed once already but if she disapeard in his hands or anything he know where she was so what was the point of that.
her mind raced as fast as he could thinking of every fight she been in every thing she done to use her powers there was one idea that came to her head but she didn't really want to do it she only done it once and that was when she was well crazy when Cain was still around she hadn't even tried to do it scene then.
She looked Victor in the eye and at the others in the room did she really have another choose she needed to get him off of her some how and she chouldnt only really forces on the pain. She closed her eyes and opened her mind making everyone in the room feel the pain and lack of air that she was feeling she knew that rex would feel it to she couldn't control that part and part of her didn't care he didn't let go of her do to being shot maybe he let her go when he feel everything she was to even the fact that she was above the ground. It had to work, well at lest get him to let her go then she could really try to do something.

[The Phoenix]

Phoenix sat back with Fallon and just watched everything that was going on. It was very amusing watching Victor do his thing. She loved it though. She always found him more attractive when he was being evil and especially when he was covered in blood. That was when she couldn't control herself and that was how Fallon was made. He kissed her daughter's head and she leaned into her body and watched her father. She was making mental notes in her head for when she would finally get to fight one day. Phoenix could feel her claws extending and retracting .

She knew her daughter wanted to tear something up like her and Victor did but she was still young and there was still too many unknown factors in the safety of her here. Once they had the mansion under their full control then Phoenix would let her go and slice up anyone she wanted but until then she would have to stay here with her and just learn by watching her and her father.

She was getting bored now though and these kids were obviously losing the fight. She yawned and stood up from where she was sitting on the arm of an armchair with Fallon and looked at Victor. "Victor, either kill them or make sure they don't go anywhere while we get the rest of the mansion. They obviously won't win this fight and I'm getting bored."

As Phoenix spoke she suddenly felt a tingling in her throat. Fallon clung to her more her claws sinking in her skin as she gasped for breathe. The blonde woman looked at her with wide eyes as she realized her daughter couldn't breathe. That was when she started gasping for breathe. She couldn't breathe either. "V-Victor! S-stop...." She held Fallon closer trying in a way to protect her but she knew that she couldn't.
