[ Gage ] >>>>>PROLOGUE<<<<<

[ Gage ] SCENE> SINISTER, IN HIS SECRET LAB, GETS UP FROM A VIEW SCREEN AND ORDERS JENNIFER AROUND.

[ Gage ] <Sinister> ::stands and sighs:: Take Gage off of life support. If I have to go back to that base, he shall be my bargaining chip.

[ Gage ] <Jennifer> What do you plan to do, sir?

[ Gage ] <Sinister> Sapphire must be destroyed. She has meddled to much with all of my projects and her knowledge of the future is too dangerous. Azure managed to kill the boy, but she still survives. I shall finish her myself.

[ Gage ] <Jennifer> Very good, sir.

[ Gage ] <Sinister> ::steps onto some device and presses a few buttons::

[ Gage ] ACTION> SINISTER NODS TO JENNIFER, THEN TELEPORTS AWAY, WITH AN UNCONSCIOUS GAGE IN HIS ARMS.

[ Gage ] LOCATION> FALLS EDGE

[ Gage ] SCENE> X-FACTOR HAS BEEN ORDERED TO HUNT DOWN EVE, AND BRING HER TO "GAGE". WHAT EVERYONE BESIDES EVE AND SAPPHIRE DON'T REALIZE, THOUGH, IS THAT GAGE IS REALLY HIS CLONE, AZURE.

< Polaris > ::Stands from her place on the couch, tucking back green strands, and leaving the living room, to start her search for Eve::

< Rhythm > ::comes runing in the front door, he was outside playing bball with Talon and Click:: what's this about going after Eve?

< Myriad > ::...still in her room:: ((....according to that bastard, i'm of no use anyway...)) ::....sits there on her bed::

[ Azure ] +com+ Dragon, Cryz get down to the med-bay. Destroy Sapphire! That's an order! ((They hate her, they should be willing to do it...too bad Hazard isn't here))

< Arsenal > ::Shakes his head, slightly:: I dunnae like this..I know the lass is a bit loony, but a spy? Suppose it would explain th' big personality change..::Scowls, glancing up:: Did he say "Destroy"?

< Eve > ::quickly heads for the living room area looking for anyone around:: Anyone? I need help... that's not Gage! It's some...some...Gage-like evil guy!

< Rhythm > ::catches a glimpse of Polaris as she leaves the living room:: wait up niña verde..

< Phase > :::Comes down the stairs, putting on his shirt::: What's happening? And why did I have to get woken up?

< Eve > Myriad... aren't you here?

< Polaris > ::Turns to see Rhythm, stopping:: Hey..well..We have our mission, wouldn't you say?

< Rhythm > ::hears Eve coming and turns around::

< Eve > ::heads to her room to grab her bio-suit armor:: If nobody can hear me I'll have to take care of that bad man myself

[ Azure` ] ::steps out of his office:: +com+ Find Eve. ::heads to the elevator and goes to the main floor::

< Myriad > ::a bit angry, 'looks' at everyone's emotions..::

< Rhythm > ::sees Eve and runs after her catching her right arm before she can head up the stairs:: Eve, what is going on?

[ Azure` ] ACTION> MYRAID SENSES MUCH CONFUSION, SOME FEAR, SOME ANGER, AND JUST PLAIN ANXIETY.

< Eve > Hey! ::runs towards Rhythm:: I need some help.. some evil guy has taken Gage's place and we need to stop him

< Arsenal > ::Heads for an elevator, his energy pistols drawn, as he looks around:: ((If she is a spy..I should nae have been so oblivious towards any signs..I should have seen it, sooner..))

< Phase > :::Rubs his eyes as he walks into the living room::: Alright, why in the hell is everyone going buggy suddenly?

< Polaris > ::Runs after Gage, and moves to grab Eve's other arm, to hold he rin place:: Calm down..we're going ot take you to Gage..and get this all straightened out.

[ Azure` ] ::step onto the main floor, turns the corner and see's Eve:: Hold it! ::holds his hand up and fires a blast at her::

< Myriad > ::blinks:: ((.....fear.. would that be Eve? confusion.. bet that's everyone... anger... who else is angry besides me...?))

< Rhythm > what? evil guy.. Gage?

< Eve > ::blinks:: I already told you... it's an evil Gage and he's got the real Gage somewhere and I need to find him... aren't you going to help me? ::glances at Rhythm::

< Eve > Hey.. leggo of me.. I'm not the bad person here... I'm the same person I've always been

< Rhythm > ::ducks at the sound of 'Gage's' blasts::

< Eve > ::tries to push Polaris and Rhythm away from her:: yes! He's the bad guy here! He and that other pasty guy have Gage!

< Phase > :::Hears sounds of blasts, frowns::: ((That doesn't sound like friendly fire.)) :::Edges a look into the hall:::

< Rhythm > ::gets up and looks at Azure:: Gage, hold up man.. you coulve hurt her...

[ Azure` ] Stop her! ::starts after Eve::

< Eve > ahh! ::gets hit by the blast::

< Arsenal > ::Steps out of the elevator, looking around:: ((Jus' where are they..?)) ::Tries to listen for the direction of any sign of commotion::

[ Azure` ] ::looks at Rhythm:: Shut up and get her! ::moves over to her::

< Myriad > ::stands:: ((..it's strange.. Eve is always so... happy-go-lucky.. why would we have to hunt her down?)) ::walks out of her room and into the hall::

< Rhythm > Hey! ::looks back at the injured Eve, then motions in to stand between her and Azure::

< Phase > :::Moves into the hallway::: Who fired what in here?

< Eve > ::tries to pick herself up and growls, glaring at Azure:: Where's Gage! ::rushes at Azure and tries to hit him with a running punch::

< Rhythm > Hold up Jefe.. take it easy, the girl is our teammate

< Polaris > ::Did dodge the blast, all late and all, glancing to this 'artificial' Gage. Without hesistation, she moves to hold him in place so that he cannot move::

[ Azure` ] ::powered up, so is super-strong, pushes Rhythm down by Eve:: If your gonna help her, then your a traitor too. ::grabs Eve's hand as she tries to punch:: Gotcha.

< Eve > ::growls at Azure:: You're a bad man.. ::charges up a cannon on her shoulder and aims at Azure::

< Rhythm > OOf ::falls down beside Eve:: ((what is up with this guy??))

< Arsenal > ::Looks around, hearing shouts:: ((Ach..I take it that may be where they're at, now..)) ::Runs to head in the direction of the shouting::

< Rhythm > ::sweeps with one foot to knock Azure down::

[ Azure` ] ::tunrs to Polaris:: Let me go. Thats an order. Eve needs to get to the medical bay. ::grabs Eve by the neck:: The canon's aren't neccesary, Eve. We just want to help.

< Eve > Hey... that's my hand! ::tries to extend her wings and rocket up through the ceiling ahead of them::

[ Azure` ] ACTION> RHYTHM'S FOOT BANG'S INTO AZURE'S LEG, BUT RHYTHM IS MORE HURT BY THE KICK THAN AZURE.

< Myriad > ::eyes flutter a bit as she once again senses the emotions, moves towards the stairs::

< Eve > ::struggles:: NO! You're trying to hurt us..!

< Polaris > ::Ignores his order, with the shake of her head:: NO! You're evil..because if you weren't, you wouldn't be trying to hurt Eve.

[ Azure` ] ::hold tight onto Eve:: Somebody knock her out!

< Phase > :::Pulls pistol from the holster at his side, aims at Polaris::: Release him, now!

< Arsenal > ::Runs up to the scene, powering up his pistols, aiming one at Polaris, then at Eve:: What the ballacks is goin' on, here?!

< Myriad > ::....walks down the stairs.. looking at the group:: ....

[ Azure` ] ::extanbds and hand and blasts Polaris, and makes the forcefield dissipate:: Back off, new girl. ::accidentilly lets go of Eve:: Damn it!

*** `Rhythm (endeavor2@mig-fl38-125.rasserver.net) has joined channel #X-Factor

*** Mode change [+o `Rhythm] on channel #x-factor by Azure`

< Phase > :::Turns the gun on Azure::: Hold it, pal. That's no way to treat a lady. Especially a team member.

< Myriad > ::....eyes Azure:: ...it's long past time i show you how *I* feel! ::tries to make him feel extreme fear::

< Eve > ::glares:: I'm not going to lose to you... I won't! ::closes her eyes and tries to technopatically use her electrical shock defense system on her suit::

[ Azure` ] ::punches at Phase:: God damn it! Don't you see what she's doing? She making us crazy? Have you forgotten that Sapphire tried to kill us all? Eve is working with her!

< Polaris > ::A forcefield is put up over her frame, as she attempts to use her magnetic powers, to restrain Azure again.:: Everyone..that is not Gage..so don't attack me or Eve, but stop him!

< Myriad > ....why would Eve be working with anyone when she litterally worships you, Gage?

< Arsenal > ::Moves to fire a Lethal shot into the ceiling, in an attempt to get the others' attention:: Have ye all lost you're bleedin' minds?! When I signed on for this gig, they did nae say anything about the team always trying to bleedin' kill eachother!

< Eve > ::tries to tackle Azure to the ground and pin him:: They can see that you're just a meany... and Gage would never be that mean ::glares::

[ Azure` ] ::strunggles to try and not be afraid by Myriad:: Stop it...stop...it...stop it...STOP IT! I am not afriad! ::kicks Myriad in the gut::

< Myriad > ::....grits her teeth, kneeling down:: ....

< Phase > :::Looks over to Arsenal::: Nice of you to point that out! :::Rubs his jaw from the punch:::

< Rhythm > ((she's right, Gage would not behave this way...))

< Eve > ::smiles back at Myriad:: Yeah! So there ::makes a face at Azure::

[ Azure` ] ::looks around:: This girl doesn't know me! ::glaress at Pol::

< Rhythm > ::tries to tackle "Gage" as well::

< Polaris > ::Tries to restrain Azure more, to where he can't move at all:: Stop behaving this way..we all shouldn't be fighting each other like this.

< Myriad > ::....glares up at Azure:: ....you...WILL....be! ::tries 'pouring on' the fear again::

[ Azure` ] ::falls, being tackled by Rhythm:: Thats IT! ::blasts Rhthym as they tumble down:: Back off!

< Myriad > ::slowly climbs to her feet::

< Rhythm > Ahhh! ::gets blasted back, but returns fire before coiling in pain::

[ Azure` ] >>>>>INTERLUDE<<<<<

[ Azure` ] SCENE> DRAGON AND CRYZ ARRIVE IN THE MED-BAY.

< Cryz > ::surveys the area, looking for Sapphire:: Why'd he tell us to.. destroy her? ::frowns to himself::

[ Azure` ] <Dr.Barltet> ::looks at the couple:: What are you doing here? What's happening?

< Dragon > ::hesitates at the door, looking around for Sapphire:: ((I don't understand this order...))

< Cryz > ::looks at Barlet and looks down then at the walls, trying to avoid looking at the Doc:: ...Gage... told us to destroy Sapphire...

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> ::just woken up:: Cryz, Dragon...I saw Gage's...Azures mind...don't kill me...

< Dragon > ::shakes her head slightly:: ((won't do it... i'd rather claw her eyes out than destroy her, anyway.))

[ Azure` ] <Dr.Barltet> ::eyes wide:: What? I can't condone using fatal force.

< Cryz > ::looks at Barlet:: Neither will I... but he's expecting us to...

< Dragon > Don't worry, doctor... ::walks towards Sapphire, eyes narrowing slightly:: Azure?

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> You...you have to know something...that's not Gage...it's a clone of Gage...Azure. I remember now.

< Cryz > A clone? ::shakes his head slowly:: Lemme guess... Sinister?

< Dragon > ..clone?.. Sinister.. ::clenches a fist slightly:: Remember what?

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> He was created by Sinister...like me.

[ Azure` ] He's going to try and kill me...::looks at Dragon:: ...and maybe you. But you can't let that happen.

[ Azure` ] <<that was Sapphire>>

< Dragon > ::eyes Sapphire:: Do you know what Sinister wants?.

< Cryz > ::blinks, eyes narrowing slightly, looking to Drags:: Why her too?

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> He has his own agenda, but...there's more...::looks down::

< Dragon > What more? ::crosses her arms::

< Cryz > More? ::frowns:: Like what? ((Can we even trust her?))

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> Sinister created me...using DNA samples. ::looks at Cryz and Dragon:: Yours.

[ Azure` ] <Dr.Bartlet> Oh my. ::stares::

< Dragon > ::turns away:: ...

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> He created me as a test, but also to read the mind of that young boy ::gestures to Lucas' dead body:: ...and tell him the secrets of the future.

< Cryz > ::blinks a few times, somewhat confused:: You mean... ::scratches his head:: you're basically what a... daughter'd be like?

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> Yes. ::ashamed look, hangs here head down:: I..lost it. I got power hungry. I'm sorry.

< Dragon > ::gaze settles on Lucas, and she snaps at the doc:: Why the hell do we have a corpse in here? Don't you have.. storage or something?

< Cryz > ...::turns, looking at Lucas:: and is that... another construct using our dna samples?

[ Azure` ] <Dr.Bartlet> ::pulls off a pair of rubber gloves:: I was examining him...but nowI don't need to.

< Dragon > ::rubs a hand across her face:: ((..not a daughter, a construct... sinister's little invention..))

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> ::shakes her head:: No. He was just an autist mutant boy who could see the future...Sinister found him...abused him...by making me to read his mind.

[ Azure` ] <<autistic, that is>>

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> ::looks up:: But right now...the fake Gage is trying to kill Eve. I can help you beat him.

< Cryz > ::runs a hand through his hair, letting out a slow breath:: ...wow... talk about a lot to take in...

< Dragon > I don't think we need your help. ::cold stare at Sapphire:: Doctor... tranq her and lock yourself in the medlab if necessary, in case this... Azure sends someone else to kill her.

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire>::looks up again with an frightened expression:: Oh no. Sinister is here.

[ Azure` ] >>>>>END INTERLUDE<<<<<

[ Azure` ] SCENE> THE REST OF X-FACTOR STANDS BEFORE SINISTER, WHO HAS JUST ARRIVED. HE HOLDS AN UNCONSCIOUS GAGE IN ONE ARM.

< Arsenal > <<*Looks at C and Drags* You guys have a twisted family, now..heh.>>

< Eve > Gage! ::charges at Sinister::

< Myriad > ::...looks from Azure to Gage:: .....

[ Azure` ] ::looks at Sinny:: ((Oh shit)) I...uh...it's Sinister!

< Phase > Oh, this just keeps gettin' better and better. :::Cocks back the hammer of his pistol:::

< Rhythm > Now we know for sure Eve was telling the truth ::hurls the Big screen TV at Azure, and runs at him, ready to pound on him after his attention is focused on the oncoming object::

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> ::holds up Gage:: Stop, Eve, or he dies...

< Dragon > <<...That TV's coming out of your paycheck, mister :P>>

< Arsenal > ::Looks from Sinister to Gage, to Azure, scowling:: ..Bleedin' hell..::Moves to center his blasters on Sinister, but not fire::

< Eve > ::quickly stops:: Don't you hurt him or else... I'll.. ::glares at Sinister while keeping an eye on Gage::

< Myriad > <<lol>>

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> ::looks at Azure:: The time for charades is over, Azure. ::looks at X-Factor:: Back away, or the real Gage will die. ::holds up the Gage and threatens to snap his neck::

< Rhythm > <<lol>>

< Eve > Why do you want Gage? ::glares at Sinister::

[ Azure ] <<just go from where you were...=P at Drags>>

< Myriad > ::....takes a small step back::

< Arsenal > ::Slowly starts to lower his pistols:: ..Ballacks..

< Polaris > ::Glares at Sinister, levitating from the ground a bit. Trying not to be noticed, she moves to keep enwrap him in a magnetic field, to keep him from moving, if this happens, she immediately goes to throw him through a nearby wall::

< Polaris > <<-keep>>

[ Azure ] ::adjusts a device on his belt, making his power signature go from red to blue:: Sorry, kids. We have to go kill some people now. Don't get in our way or-

[ Azure ] <Sinister> Shut up, Azure. You are a clone, and I am your master. I can make more of you if I wish. Now, come ::starts walking past X-Factor, Polaris not being able to concentrate enough to get a good hold::

< Phase > Sure, come on in. Make yourself at home. We don't mind.

< Eve > Gage...hold on... ::keeps an eye on Sinister::

< Arsenal > ::Watches Sinister carefully as he passes:: What 'bout Gage, Sinister?

[ Azure ] <Gage> ::un conscious, barely breathing::

< Polaris > ::A glare is shot at Sinister, and as he walks past him, he rhands charge a bit, but she doesn't launch anything just yet::

< Myriad > ::...tries making Azure feel anger towards Sinister::

[ Azure ] <Sinister> It's not about Gage, you fools. ::still holding him by his neck:: It's about so much more.

< Phase > :::Looks at Polaris::: Calm down, missy. No need setting him off now.

< Rhythm > ::watches in anger as Sinister walks by using Gage as a shield, but then catches Azure by his collar and attempt to hurl him over his shoulder:: not you amigo..

[ Azure ] ::walks along with Sinister, suddenly gets hurled back into the wall by Rhythm:: Urk! ::falls unconscious::

*** Azure is now known as Azure`

< Myriad > ((....damnit....))

< Arsenal > Right..Then why don't ye let Gage go, if he does nae have anything important to do with this? ::Keeps his eyes on Sinister::

< Eve > ::looks at Myriad:: I don't know what to do... if I go after him he'll hurt Gage..

< Rhythm > ::jumps at Azure and starts pounding on him, fists glaring with energy::

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> ::turns and looks at Rhythm:: Hmph. Disposable.

[ Azure` ] ::is unconscious::

< Eve > Rhythm, stop it! ::tries to pull him off of Azure::

< Phase > Rhythm, heel! There's plenty of time for that later. Gage is more important at the moment.

< Dragon > <<Dude, need to get Rhy into some anger management classes>>

[ Azure` ] ACTION> EVE PULLS HIM OFF.

< Myriad > ::...slowly moves over to Eve, whispering:: ...don't do anything.. not yet..

< Rhythm > ::realises Azure is unconsious and backs off::

< Eve > ::slowly nods at Myriad:: ..is he okay?

< Cryz > <<he's just pissed Eve likes Gage more than him and Azure's a wannabe Gage>>

< Polaris > ::Gives a glance to Phase, and moves over to Rhythm:: Calm down, I believe you hurt him enough ::whispers this to him::

< Eve > <<=P>>

< Myriad > ..he's not awake.. i can't tell..

< Phase > <<Newsman> X-Factor love triangle, film at 11.>>

< Eve > hmpf.. I need to do something..

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> ::starts toward the elevator:: I have to go find Sapphire. Excuse me.

< Eve > ::walks slowly towards Sinister:: Umm.. excuse me... Mr. Sister? If you need a hostage I'll go... I won't do anything as long as Gage is okay, I promise and cross my heart, hope to die? ::small nervous smile::

[ Azure` ] ACTION> SAPPHIRE, CRYZ, AND DRAGON BURST IN FROM THE HALLWAY.

< Arsenal > ::Snorts, slightly, watching Sinister head towards the elevator, muttering:: Bleedin' coward..

< Phase > :::Sees the three burst in:: Oh, goody, the whole group's here. Now, lets cut to the chase

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> Sinister! ::flaring with tk energy::

< Rhythm > ::grins slightly::

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> Sapphire. How good to see you. Come to usurp me have you?

< Cryz > ::shifts to crystal:: So, did we miss the party, or are our invites still valid?

< Dragon > ::hovering slightly with tk, glares at Sinny::

< Eve > No! You have to stay away from him or he'll hurt Gage! ::looks at Dragon, Cryz and Sapphire::

< Cryz > <<::looks from Drags to Sapph:: ...really are related>>

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> I have seen the error of my ways. I no longer wish to usurp you. It's enough for you just to be dead!

< Rhythm > ::steps closer to Sinister, dragging the unconcious Azure along::

< Myriad > ::...tries to calm the team bown a bit::

< Phase > :::Seems Rhythm dragging Azure::: Can't you leave unconscious morons lie?

< Myriad > <<...err, b=d>>

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> Then have at me! ::drops Gage and blasts at Sapphire::

< Dragon > ::sees Gage drop and attempts to pull him out of the way with tk::

< Eve > I'm coming Gage! ::dashes after Gage and tries to pick him up and rush away from Sinister::

< Arsenal > ::Looks from Cryz, Dragon and Sappire to Sinister and Gage:: Bleedin' hell..

< Rhythm > ::looks at Phase and back at Sinister, watching him carefully::

[ Azure` ] ACTION> EVE GRABS GAGE AND MOVES HIM SAFELY AWAY.

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> ::dodges, sending a TK bolt back at him, which connects and slams him back::

< Polaris > ::Gives a glare towards Sapphire, and then glances over towards Sinister, and then moving to stand next to Phase and Rhythm, hands still glowing just a bit::

< Rhythm > ::grabs Azure by the legs and uses him like a bat to hit Sinister with::

< Eve > Gage! ::quickly checks for a pulse:: have a weird sense of deja vu... hope this is the real you..

< Phase > He swings!

< Dragon > ::charges her hands with heat energy, creating a blast of flame that she sends at Sinister::

[ Azure` ] ACTION> RHYTHM CAN LIFT AZURE'S UNCONSCIOUS BODY THAT FAR INTO THE AIR AND IS FORCED TO LEAVE AZURE WHERE HE IS.

< Rhythm > <<lol, i cant believ i just wrote that>>

< Cryz > <<can't>>

[ Azure` ] <Gage> ::has a pulse::

[ Azure` ] <<yeah, can't>>

< Myriad > ::...moves over to Eve:: ...let me take him to the medlab..

< Rhythm > <<ok, but reminder that Rhythm has super strength>>

< Myriad > <<...wouldn't a body be too limp to use as a bat anyway? -_->>

< Dragon > ::glances at Myriad and Eve:: Medlab's no safer than with the rest of us.

< Eve > I'm going with you ::picks Gage up and glances at the others::

< Phase > Well, Polaris, now that our hostage is out of the way, you may fire when ready.

< Myriad > ....he's hurt, if you haven't noticed..

< Arsenal > ::Raises his pistols again, targetting Sinister but not firing, watching him and Sapphire:: ..Why do I get the feelin', this whole place is about to come down around us, from those two..

< Eve > ::nods:: Gage would want me to help the others... ::looks at Myriad:: Make sure he stays safe.. ::smiles a bit::

< Polaris > Well..I've been holding this energy long enough..::she then starts to levitate again, two huge blasts of energy being shot in Sinisters direction with powerful force::

< Rhythm > right then ::aims and blasts at Sinister several times::

< Myriad > ::nods:: i will... ::moves to pick up Gage::

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> ::blasts at Sapphire:: Dragon! How's the telepathy these days?

< Phase > :::Aims at Sinister, opens fire with his pistol:::

< Cryz > ::forms his fists into spikes, charging at Sinny's side, hoping he'll be too preoccupied with Sapph::

< Dragon > Shut up, asshole. ::glares at Sinister:: ((I'd kill you if I could..)) ::aims another blast of fire::

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> ::dodge's Polaris, but gets smacked into by Cryz:: Ugh! ::kicks Cryz into Phase::

< Eve > ::readys as many cannons as possible on her bio suit and aims them at Sinister:: You hurt Gage..

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> ::waits for an opening::

< Arsenal > ::Takes a few steps closer and opens fire on Sinister:: ((I get the feelin' this is nae gonna do any good, but..))

< Dragon > ::telekinetically pulls at Cryz and Phase to get them out of the way before Eve fires::

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> ::glances at Polaris while dodging attacks:: Ah...Alex Summers' former whore is here.

< Myriad > ::...walks up the stairs to the second floor and takes the elevator there to the medlab::

< Rhythm > this guy is pissing me off.. we hit him and hit him and he just keeps on ticking...

< Eve > ::cries out and fires everycannon at Sinister until she runs out of energy::

[ Azure` ] <Sinister> ::gets blasted back into the walls by Eve...cause a fair ammount of damage which soon begin to heal:: Very good, Eve.

< Phase > :::Pushes Cryz off of him::: Next time, try aimming for something non-living to land on.

< Myriad > ::looks down at Gage:: ((..should've known that guy wasn't him.....))

< Eve > ::falls to her knees and looks up to glare back at Sinister:: You'll pay for hurting him..

< Dragon > ::glances around, not seeing Gage or Myriad:: ((Damnit! Told 'em to keep him here where if Sinister wants him he has to get through all of us first!))

< Polaris > ::A brow is lofted:: No he just didn't...He called me a whore. ::a laughs escapes her mouth, and she takes to the air, and continues to fire at him, non stop, with a glare::

< Arsenal > Ach..Jus' terrific..he's still not down! ::Tries to fire several lethal shots aimed at Sinny, before he heals:: ..Can ye hit him again, lass?!

< Rhythm > ::both hands begin to glow as he charges them up::

[ Azure` ] <Sapphire> You shall suffer, Sinister! {{ X-Factor, everyone hit him at once! NOW!}} ::blasts at Sinister with all her might using her TK, psionic, and heat powers::

< Polaris > ::Forcefield still up, she just blocks the bullets, moving in a formation behind him to blast him in his back. If there is any metal around, she more than likely, will attract to him, so she can at least knock him out::
