Generation X #2
$2.99

Black Air sends the kids to London Below to rescue Rachel Summers, who has been kidnapped by a rogue operative. The simple rescue spirals out of control when Gen X discovers the real truth behind Rachel's disappearance and an unspeakable evil.

It's been three days since the Svalbard incident. In that time, Black Air has placed Generation X in a five-star hotel, one of London's finest. It's also a Black Air safe house. For three days, Generation X has been allowed to play tourist, to party, and to relax, all while under Black Air surveillance.

In those three days, no one has seen Rachel; Kitty hasn't been able to contact Kurt, Charles, or even Alex; Black Air has been casually interrogating Gen X about Svalbard; and no one has learned anything about what the hell exactly happened.

Early the 4th morning, Agents LeStrange and Wisdom have called Generation X into the hotel conference room.

—-

Monica Lestrange stood at the head of table while Wisdom set up the laptop to a projection screen. She casually flipped through several color coded folders, then looked up at Generation X.

"Point blank- we need something retrieved, and rather than spend the Queen's money letting you lot relax, we're putting you to work. If you pull it off, we'll tell you why you're here. You spit the offer back at us, and as far as we know, you were holding the facility hostage. And the Kingdom of Norway is very eager for those heads."

I'll say this much for Ms. Lestrange: The lady knows what she wants.

I sit on the side of the table, trying to get a good look at the contents of the folders - I think it's fairly obvious we'll have to accept the offer, but I'd like to know a few things. "What exactly do you need retrieved?"

Wisdom lights up a cigarette, and LeStrange shoots him a look. He mutters under his breath, stabs it out, and clicks something on the computer.

LeStrange picks up a red file and pulls out several photographs, tossing them at Wildfire.

"This man is Agent Scratch. He's gone rogue. He was my superior, but as of now, I'm Minder 1. No sooner had we brought you all back here then we received proof he sold Agent Grant, Mesmer, out.

We want you to retrieve him. He's gone underground. Literally. You'll be entering an old Black Air facility in the London Underground, below Earl's Court.

Agent Wisdom and myself will escort you to the tube, but you're on your own from there."

"Backstabbed, yeh," Wisdom mutters, his eyes utter fury. "I can't get this bloody laptop to work; tell them what they need to know."

LeStrange picks up a green folder, looks through it, then closes it hastily and forces a smile. "Well. We've sealed off the facility for a reason. Tiny little project that breached a bit of old London myth turned truth.

Scratch has enlisted demons."

LeStrange stares Dillan down. "No expendable ones, no."

Wisdom can't contain his anger anymore and pushes past her.

"Sod the bloody demons, he's got that Summers woman with him, and who knows what the hell he's liable to do. And he's not holing up, either, there's a transporter bit down there that can take him straight to your terrorist friends."

LeStrange glares at Wisdom, then quickly slaps a restraining bracelet on Kitty. "Fine. Do it that way. But Pryde stays with us."

"It makes sense in a way. Black Air doesn't have anything to lose by sending us in - if we die, we die. Since we're cut off from America, they could make up any story about our deaths that they liked. Our deaths would also give them a good idea of what sort of power they're up against in the underground - we're being used as pawns, I think." I look down at the photos, considering. "That being said, it's not like we have much of a choice."

I shake my head Marcus' way. "Don't bother, Marcus. I've been in this sort of world enough to know - ethics don't come in to play. Effectiveness is what matters." And now to Dillan, with his solid point. "If we fight these demons, we have a chance - and they do have Ms. Summers. Aside from her being our instructor, she's also an extremely powerful being. The less time she spends with the enemy, the better off the whole world will be."

Twenty minutes later and Generation X are standing a 1/2 mile below Earl's Court in a bare concrete tunnel. There's a high-tech looking door with all kinds of obscure serial numbers and warnings stamped on it. Fortunately, it's broken open.

Unfortunately, there seem to be claw marks burned into the metal and concrete.


Re: Sub Plot - Black Air, Blackmail
Post by Chord on Mar 10, 2007, 2:07am

I laugh. "We're calling it trim now?" I say before turning to Wildfire. "It really depends on the type of demons we're dealing with. And really, we don't know anything about demons so we're pretty much screwed all around."

You know what I miss? When time-travel was the be-all-end-all solution to all of my problems.

"And you know what else would be a good way to get Rachel away from the enemy? Calling her parents to come and save. I know calling the X-men seems to be against the…Generation X (is that our name?) spirit, but I really like dying and not being controlled by the man. Especially not a British man."

Into the fire, I suppose.

"Marcus, can you generate some light? I want as few surprises as possible." I head over to the door, examining the scratch marks and trying to estimate just how big the enemy is. "Nathan, I seem to remember you having some history with demons. Any input?"

Wildfire's investigation of the scratch marks clearly shows several sizes of creatures.

Some of the scratch marks are warm to the touch, the metal melted.

The tunnel is a straight shot gently ramping down. Through the darkness, there are flickering lights at the bottom of the ramp.

This quiet…it's disconcerting. It's almost as if the air itself is afraid to move. Even I have to admit my nerves aren't solid, and I can only imagine how well the others are holding up.

I head down the ramp with Marcus beside me, forming a gun in my hands as I go and keeping my ears perked. Any sound. Any sound at all.


Re: Sub Plot - Black Air, Blackmail
Post by Alkaline on Mar 10, 2007, 2:22am

At the bottom of the ramp, is another door, which is stuck halfway shut/open from the ceiling.

Through it, the party clearly sees a tiled floor. It's the facility's front hall.

There's a long hall with a staircase to the right. There are thick glass windows lining the left wall, and through them one sees more hallways leading elswhere. These halls appear to have pressurized doors, but at least the lights are on and bright.


Re: Sub Plot - Black Air, Blackmail
Post by Last Hero on Mar 10, 2007, 2:23am

I nod Nathan's way. "We might be counting on your expertise before this is over. Try and stay sharp." A repeat of what happened during the last mission is exactly what I want to avoid.

I sigh, looking down the other hallways. "As much as I hate it, we might have to do this the long way; there's no sense is us splitting up." I point to the hallway with pressurized doors. "I say we check those out first, but don't open them - only see what's inside."

The door bangs harder, the there's a moan and a squelching sound. Something wet and meaty hits the interior of the door.

The door at the end of the hall hisses with hydraulics, and opens, then slams shut. In that brief moment, a figure can be seen running past.


Re: Sub Plot - Black Air, Blackmail
Post by Last Hero on Mar 10, 2007, 2:43am

I take Nathan's advice at face value, gesturing to Marcus. "Weld the door down tight; it should keep whatever's in there from coming at us from behind."

Hype and Marcus's glows reveal that the room is slick with several different shades of blood, but there's a specific trail of government issued footprints leading from this new hall's entrance, to a smaller pressurized door, and back and forth to another door at the end of the hall.

Nathaniel thinks. This is turning into a wild goose chance. I might be able to track down Rachel faster as the demon, but with all this activity around me it could easily spiral into choas.

Rachels voice echoes in his head. Thats not good. Then the choice is made. He sheaths his sword. "Dil, you think you can keep up with a demon?" meanwhile Nathaniel starts the process without waiting for an answer.

Sir Nathaniel/The Demon has bolted off from the team, down the door at the end of the hall.

It's in another long hall, this one lined with mirrors. Still, at the end of this hall is another thick hydraulic door, with all kinds of warnings.

The footprints are no longer visible as leading this way, though.

Back where the other demon is fighting Gen X, Dillan teleports onto the creature, right in Wild's line of fire.

In the chaos it's hard to see what and who got hit, but Dillan and the demon fall to the ground. It snaps it's jaws at Dillan's ear.

Polarity knees the demon hard in the head, though now Wildfire has two targets she doesn't want to hit.

Marcus's rings pull on the demon and finally, it goes limp. Alive, but limp.

It throws Dillan and Polarity off, and disappears in the darkness above.

After a tense few seconds, the noises above cease.

Sir Nathaniel is bashing the door down. He's actually dented it, but it's made to withstand much bigger threats.

Recap:

Generation X has located Scratch, and he's dead. Sarah has been sent to the surface to report Scratch's condition to Lestrange and Wisdom. Meanwhile, Sir Nathaniel has located Rachel's possible holding cell.

The mirrors lining the hallway shatter. They're actually two way mirrors.

Beyond the broken mirrors on either side are test tubes, holding many more unfathomable shapes. Black Air has obviously been very busy since Inferno.

None of that helps them access the room that Nathaniel has locked onto, though.

Kurt falls to the ground. He looks emaciated, and his skin is only growing tighter.

There's a dry rustle like leaves on an October night.

Kurt, Sara, and Meghan are now twisted abominations of their former selves.

Rachel coughs, not feeling entirely comfortable in Sir Nathaniel's Demon arms.

They're feeding off our desires, now. Scratch woke something up.

"Something big," she finishes, and now Hype, Kurt and Meghan are not remotely near human.

The acts they're committing on each other, even more so. Demon Kurt and Meghan turn on Sara, in a bizarre ritual of cannibalism and rape.

The team can only stand in horror.

The air stinks like wet dog and hot garbage.

There's an incessant droning, like wasps and a static television channel.

Suddenly, Kurt and Meghan leap at Sir Nathaniel.

Marcus throws up.

He sees the demon from under Sara's skin start jumping at Wildfire.

NO!

He fires a particle beam at it.

I'm fairly young, but I've seen many, many things that most people would consider disturbing. Mortifying. Mentally devastating. I've seen them, and I've managed to get a good night's rest afterwards.

But not this. I doubt I'll get any sleep after this.

"Knock them out." It's a simple order, but it's the only one I have time to give as Sara - or what looks like Sara - charges at me. I dissolve the gun, intending to create a shotgun next - but I'll need ten seconds for that. And ten seconds fighting something like this is a long time.

I raise my fists and prepare for the worst.

The droning noise is getting louder now, and there's an other unearthly wail. Something is coming down the hallway, and it's Gen X's only exit.

Sir Nathaniel is nowlong gone, Rachel in tow.

Rachel's TP is becoming distorted again, and no one can make sense of it.

The droning gives way to a metallic clanging, rythmic, and the ground is eroding away to a rusted metal.

Every now and then the scenery flashes, showing a twisted realm of barbwire and stretched skin, but the real world holds, for now.

There's also a loud electronic pinging coming from the machine that connects to Rachel's former prison.

As Marcus heads down the hallway, he notices it's once again slick with…something. Footing is hard to maintain.

Marcus's personal lighting does nothing to penetrate further down the hall.

"Shotgun." I still form it, but this is more for whatever's waiting out in the hall - I still use it to butt Sara in the head, though, hoping to knock her demon form back. I head out after Marcus, but I fire a shot at the machine that's making the loud noises, hoping I stop it from doing whatever it does. Given this place's nature, it couldn't have been good.

He forms a plasma torch, cuts off his limbs one by one. No remorse. He then causterizes the wounds and leaves it on the ground, limbless. Then he notices Nephy and Wild.

"Oh, hey Nephy. Sorry you had to see that. Yea Wild I think we should go now."

Rachel is looking a little worse for wear, but Kitty is there as well, unrestrained.

Wisdom is seated next to Sir Nathaniel and Hype, who are enjoying a quick military ration lunch.

Rachel rubs her head. "She's right. Stand down, team. We're in over our heads big-time."

Lestrange looks at Marcus. "Scratch was under the assumption he could make his escape here. It's an old research facility, they were working on harnessing the Darkforce and other energies for mass teleportation. Useful during wartime, I'd think.

When the Inferno incident happened, the Special Projects division switched gears, focusing more on Limbo and the demons.

Scratch got it half-right. There was a transporter here. Didn't synch to any place you or I would want to go."

She removed her glasses, pale eyes focusing on Marcus. Tucking a strand of her blonde hair behind her ear, she continued. "There is no 'point'. Right now you belong to us, lock and stock. Unless you'd like to try your luck with MI6 and the European court system.

None of you seem too concerned that machine back in Svalbard launched something. I know that because none of you did a damn thing about it. Watched it fire away, you did, didn't even question what the hell had happened."

Kitty stands up and puts her arm on Marcus. "It's true. X-Jet's primed. We leave as soon as you want. Rachel and Joe included."

Rachel winces, "Yeah, and Meghan probably needs to have her food and water changed."

Kitty eyes Wisdom fiercely. "This isn't over."

Wisdom nods, "Well, yeah, that's why we're still tailing you. Also, you're still on comm black out. And yeah, we know all about your Shi'ar tech. But our alien allies trump your alien allies."
