"Yeah I need a bit of a boost."

:: Alexis was still in pain from the reflective attack the sentinel's did to her. Her stomach was burned, but not as bad as it would of been if she hadn't had her protective suite on. Either way, burned or not, it wouldn't of stopped the meta human. But if this was only the beginning....the start of what was to come, she wanted to be at the top of her game. Walking over to Morgan, she dropped her hand from her stomach exposing the large gash like wound. ::
 
[ MorningStar took a deep breath as Guardian's shield took effect and protected them. She ran a hand through her hair as she looked around at the others. Seeing Alexis' wound, she was a bit surprised. ]

Alexis: "Jesus - are you allright?!"

[ She turned her attention to where they were being taken, then looked around the small dark room, preparing for what was to come. ]
 
<< Morgan made a start of surprise at the site of Alexis wound...as she quickly raised her hand and waved it in a circular motion, a sparkling trail of magick follows behind the hand as she directs it forward. the magick flows around Alexis' wound as a cooling sensation is felt and the magicks restore her wound and heal her within and without>>

there. you might feel a little tender there for a moment but youll be......

<< a blaring sonic attack floods the room.....Morgan throws her head back with shock and pain as she covers her ears......and as the large room illuminates....they found themsleves in a large seemingly featureless metalloid cube chamber.....the sonic attack has a greater effect on Morgan and Alison than the others. while Morningstar is actually at a GREAT ADVANTAGE...gaining a continuous source of energy to transduce into LIGHT that she can release at her will in whatever form>>


<< at that moment....from out of the fading darkness....four large carboniaum tentacles charge forth...radiating with a jagged blue electric like energy...they surge forth...intending to grab and ensnare Morgan and Alison and render them unconscious with a PAINFULL burst of electrical shocks as well as constricting their breathing>>

<< large drones come into view, locking onto Alexis, Haleigh and Delilah...and began to form an attack pattern as they swoop down and began to fire cluster bombs at the women..the bombs have enouch concussive power to destroy battle tanks...>>
 
"Bad idea, boys."

[ MorningStar's arms thrust out in front of her, the sonic noise being rapidly transduced into light - lasers pinpointing the cluster bombs as they came. She called to Alexis. ]

"What can you do about those tentacles?"
 
"Yeah, i'm fine."

:: Alexis said in responds to Delilah's concern for her. As Morgan healed her wound, she nodded to her giving her a silent thanks. But before the team could even become situated, these huge tentacles came out of no where and grabed a hold of both Morgan and Alison, knocking them unconcious. ::

"I can drain most of it's energy...but I need to make contact with the tentacles."

:: Alexis yelled to Delilah over the commotion. The electrical shocks and energy radiating from the tentacles wouldn't harm Alexis as much as it would a normal mutant or human. Granted it stung a bit, maybe even hurt like hell, but Alexis' body was so used to high amounts of energy, her tolerance level was high. ::

:: Suddenly an energy disk appeared under the muta human's feet, lifting her into the air. Riding it like a surf board, she zoomed over to the closest tentacle who happened to be carrying Alison. Jumping forward, she lept off of her energy disk and grabed ahold of the moving tentacle. Wincing a bit with pain, her body began to drain the energy, soon weakening the large tentacle. It's brilliant blue ora began to dim, indicating her attack was working. ::
 
Limbo - Ceremony

:: Cameron awoke on the center of the floor where he had began the ceremony to catalyze his own abilities. He hardly remembered anything that had been on. He remembered Alison and Erika talking and then he just remembered waking up. Standing up he looked around and called for his sister to figure out what was going on ::

"Erika? Alison? Where are you guys?"

:: Erika appeared before him and he felt instantly comforted. He took a look around and where his comfort once was, he now felt panic. He was scared. Had the Six left without him? Were they trying to face Nervous and AIM without him. He couldn't let them do this alone. They needed the power of the Six, which meant in order for them to be successful he had to be there. ::

"Erika. I need to go. I have to get to the Six. They need my help. I just have a bad feeling. I need to get to them! Send me to them!"
 
Limbo - Castle

< Erika saw Cameron's panic and she understood the feeling. She didn't think he would pass out during the process, but she discerned that him sealing off his telepathic abilities probably left him alot more vulnerable to things of this nature. It had weakened him. Alison was right, this ceremony came at a dire time for his own safety as well as the safety of the Six. She nodded to him. >

"Cameron.. I will have to do a Scrying Spell but I believe I can orb you to Alison, she is our best chance since we share a blood bond. Hold Tight..."

< She motioned Cameron to the center of the Pentagram as a rushing stream could now be heard in the background as Erika's signature silver eyes glimmered. Erika began to chant. >

"Wandering Spirits, Hear My Plea. We come to you on bended knee. Send him to his next of kin, the one we know as Alison!"

< The bright lights and white orbs that usually appeared when Erika worked her magick where now replaced by dark blue and purple orbs, a sign that her own power was changing. As Cameron faded to aid the Six, she sent him a whisper of a thought. >

"Cameron, don't worry about working your power. The new aspect will just come to you, let your power flow naturally.."
 
:: Cameron found himself coming to the middle of a very dangerous and sticky situation. He saw these four mechanical looking tentacles shooting and blasting Delilah, Haleigh and Alexis with Alison and Morgan knocked out. He was right next to his sister. They had to get rid of these tentacles if he wanted to make sure Morgan and Alison were okay. He shouted over to the group. ::

"Alexis, Haleigh, Delilah! I'm here!"

:: He didn't want to distract the group but he didn't want them to attack him either. They weren't sure what AIM was capable of and he wouldn't put it past them that they would be able to clone him or something messed up like that. Cameron found himself in a taxing situation. How was he going to help the group? All he had was his telekinesis. He wished he had a huge axe or machete or something to attack it with, although he was pretty sure that the metal would widthstand his attack. Looking over at his left arm, it began to glow a bright electric blue and extended past the tips of his fingers and formed an extremely large battle axe. This must have been the aspect of his power that Erika was talking about. Things were different now. This put him back in the game. ::

"Well, this was unexpected.. Come to papa..."

:: Cameron ran forward dodging the cluster bombs and sending a few back at the tentacles with his telekinesis as they exploded on the tentacles. As he caught up to the tentacles, he brought the Axe way over his head and brought it down on one of the tentacles with full force striking it with as much as strength as he had, hoping he could at least penetrate it. ::
 
<< that taunting, comical voice boomed over the audio system...catching everyone by surprise as painfull strobe lights flooded the room...and the dimensions seemed to swirl and blur and remove any sense of proportion>>


Well now, you've made to the threshold of NERVOUS. But how do you expect to progress without your precious precog and your super strong sorceress? Here you are...and here you will STAY until you are DEAD. Thank you for visiting, let us make sure your last stop is a most memorable!

<< a pile driver composed of ADAMANTIUM and outfitted with spinning spikes began to barrell down upon the group. with an unconscious Alison and Morgan...the group now has two liabilities as well as having to fend off defenses. the pile driver pushes down with a force beyond 10 tons and the metal is IMPERVIOUS to destruction via almost any form of power possesed by anyone in the group. >>

<< from EITHER SIDE....large mechanical arms (metal composition undertermined) extend forth...with large mirror like discs front faced...they began to emit heat/energy draining beams of blue light that would immobilize the group with a numbing sharp drop in temperature....>>
 
:: Dropping to the ground after her attack, Alexis stopped, squinting her eyes to try to shield her sensitive irises from the strobe lights. The Mr. Movie phone like voice echoed around the room as he spoke to them like they were visitors in some museum....ugh, remind her to burn his vocal cords to a crisp once this is over. ::

"Oh shit..."

:: Alexis said with much worry. She saw the massive metal pile driver swinging straight for them. And if that wasn't enough, more tentacles emerged from the wall. Quickly, Alexis took control, they needed to act fast otherwise they would all be dead. But soon, Alexis' body temperature began to drop rapidly making her immediately shake. God damn cold....note to self, take a long vacation to Africa. ::

"Haleigh! Quick! Can you counter act the temperature effect?!"

:: She shouted over the commotion. Even though she felt like her body was about to turn into a popsicle, Alexis had more will power and strength then to allow herself to fall like this. Plus, the fact a massive pile driver was swinging toward them kinda kept her on her toes. And with that, Alexis rose her hand into the air...she didn't know if this would work, but she did know that she couldn't just stand around and freeze to death then get shattered. ::

:: Blinding blue lights began to flash around each tentacle that appeared out of the wall. The tentacles immediately straightened in a very robotic manor horizontally. The blue lights began to fog around each tentacle, and looking as if they were melting in every direction, Alexis glamoured the large metal tentacles into a solid wall in front of the group. Floor to ceiling....the metal composition was unknown, it could be the exact same metals as the pile driver, or it could be something less strong. Either way, it was a shot at least. ::

"Someone reenforce the wall! Quick!"
 
[ As the temperature began to drop, MorningStar worked quickly to counteract it. She felt the soundwaves still pounding through the room come into her body as she sought to harness them. She brought her palms together and focused the light energy out through her fingertips, creating a raging bonfire in the center of the room, heating it.

Hearing Alexis' call, she thrust her arms out in front of her, projecting a forcefield against the wall Shockwave had created. ]
 
Haleigh lead the group forward carefully... the defense systems in effect were getting more intricate the closer they got and were finding new ways to go over, around and under Haleigh's powers of technological manipulation. As the next battle erupts around her, Haleigh smirks. Alexis takes care of the cluster bombs, and though Morgan and Alison have indeed been incapacitated, Haleigh still feels on top of the situation. As the piledriver comes down upon them, Haleigh chuckles.

She looks up, the smirk still very evident. Alexis calls for the wall to be reinforced. Haleigh nods, and the pile driver begins to disentigrate into a swirl of metal filaments, and then disperses against the wall and solidifies once more. Haleigh hadn't DESTROYED the adamantium, she had just taken command of its properties and displaced them to change the FORM of the metal. She'd simply MOVED it to where she wanted it.

"You're gonna have to do MUCH better than that." She leered to the defense systems.
 
::Guardian began to stir....groaning as her eyes fluttered::

::slowly sitting up::

ugh....::struggling to her feet::

::Coughing::

This...is as far as we go.......we have to wait out the gauntlet....until the floor begans to lower and descend. NERVOUS is BELOW ground....but most people who get this far are usually killed at this point!


::the room began to jar and shake violently ....as the floor seemed to shift....and large circular saws emerged upward from the lines in the carbonium steel floor.....the began to move across the floor the way a shark's dorsal fin skims and splits the water....randomly changing their course. as the floor accomodated them where ever they went. the saws spinned so fast they made a wailing sound::

::at the same time...another round of lasers..these appearing BLUE in hue began to hammer at the team...splitting them up from one another...making it impossible to stay in one place.::

::Guardian began to manifest a forcefield to deflect the blasts coming at her. one of the saws was fast approaching her. without showing any sign of fear. she BLINKED from that spot and reappeared in another position. allowing the saw to head for the wall..but the saw stopped just short of the wall and came back again....more began to rise up from the floor now as well. seeing Morgan was still down, she reached out...TELEBLINKING Morgan by herside and surrounding her in a forcefield::

the lasers are meant to throw us off balance and herd us apart......hoping to cause us to stumble into a saw head on.

:: thrusting her hands out like Piper, Guardian began to blow up the wall blasters one after the other...allowing the others to recover::

beware! the saws will leave the floor and began to FLY ...and they are composed of a liquid metal..they can ADAPT!

::at that moment...three of the saws did lift up from the floor..and began to fly through the air like disks...spinning so fast...and changing their shapes as they began to dive at MorningStar, Black Widow and Prophet...transforming to now include claw shapped spikes on their circumference::
 
:: The entire gauntlet just seemed to shift. It was one thing after another. He felt bad that he hadn't been here the entire time. He was glad that Guardian was now awake and was able to protect Morgan. His attention was soon diverted to the flying saw that came at him with great speed and seeming accuracy. Sealing himself in a Telekinetic Forcefield, the saw flew after him and penetrated the globe around his body. He was shocked to see that the saw was actually getting through to him. He didn't have time to waste. ::

"Jesus Christ.. These things are strong!"

:: Grabbing hold of the saw with his mind, Cameron squinted his eyes as the saw was blasted back with a great force and into a wall where it sliced right through and kept going. He was okay for now. A few seconds later he heard the loud buzzing noise once again and the saw was coming straight for him as if it had backtracked and had targeted him for termination. Ducking at the last second he managed only to get nicked in the air as a slice of his skin fell to the floor. The pain was intense but he had to keep on his toes if he was going to get out of here alive. A crackling blue energy began to surround both of his arms as it spread down towards his hand and extended into extremely large looking claws ala Wolverine as the saw came spinning back. ::

"Let's see what we can do here..."

:: Cross his arms together in an X pattern the saw met his telekinetic claws as sparks began to fly through the air as Cameron began a struggle for dominance with the saw, stifling backwards as he continued to fight off the saw. Turning around he began to force the saw into a thick metal beam. As the saw met the beam it began to slow in speed and embed itself deep into the beam before stopping completely, stuck in the large metal beam. ::
 
<< darkness gives way to painfull noise, fury and light. Morgan finally stirs. the painfull jolt of electricity and the contrstricting of her chest cavity had caused her to black out, just as Alison did. Morgan had exerted herself quite a bit physically this evening....battling with the nano sentinels tooth and nail and relying only on her super strength, her flight and stepping discs. this was a real work out for the sorceress. now as her vision adjusted, she got her bearings and saw she was laying behind Guardian who was intently trying to direct the Six, destroy the wall blasters while the rest of the team defended against the deadly saws>>

<< Haleigh, Alexis, Delilah and Bane had done a fantastic job holding their ground inside the gauntlet to this point. Haleigh refusing to back down and the rest of the group becoming more creative and proactive with their strikes>>


<< As Morgan rose to her feet....she saw what was happening around the large room...it was similar to the "danger room" that had been used by Valiant, only it was far larger and high reaching..and far more deadly and there was now now way out.>>

<< She noticed that PROPHET had returned...and seemed to be manifesting stronger telekinetic power. this must have been what Alison had planned for him all along while in Limbo>>


<< as he battled with the powerfull, vicious saw, Morgan lifted off the ground and took off in the air....Alison covered her as she flew toward Prophet and the saw....and swooping down...she made a pass at the saw...unleashing a powerfull TIGHT vortex of wind that blasted the saw off its corse and sent it carreening into path of a laser blast.... it was blasted by the laser and sent sprawling again the opposite way into a wall smashing and exploding quickly>>
 
:: After the pile driver was taken care of, Alexis happened to look to her left and see that Cameron had finally arrived. ::

"About time you showed up, babe."

:: With a smirk, she gave him a playful wink showing that she was only poking fun at him. But their moment of calmness ended as the platform that they were standing on began to shift. Keeping her balance, the next of the attacks started. Saws began to pop up out of the ground. Holding her hands palm up, she began to hover on a energy disk, avoiding the saws. But of course, nothing was ever easy for the six. The saws began to emerge from the ground and fly. ::

"Whoa."

:: Raising her hand, energy bolts began to shoot from her palm hitting a saw that was heading straight for her. The saw exploded into sparks, but she wasn't even given enough time to savor her win. Another saw came shooting straight for her at great speeds. Quickly turning her head, she waved her arm in a more defensive movement, and suddenly, the saw exploded into feather. Looking somewhat shocked, she couldn't help but smile at the sight. ::

"Hmm..who wants chicken tonight?"
 
:: As Morgan dispatched the Saw that was right in front of him, he looked over to her with a look of thank as he smirked at her, but kept a safe distance. ::

"Thanks, Morgan.."

:: Turning to Alexis he laughed out loud. ::

"I was taking after you, always arriving fashionably late!"

:: More Saws came crashing at Cameron as he took telekinetic hold of two before ramming them into each other, the impact causing a loud explosion. Looking at the feather that appeared next to Alexis he looked over at her confused. ::

"I'll take Extra Crispy! Looks like I am not the only one whose new little power is hard to control."
 
::Guardan stood square shouldered as she extended her gloved hand....a look of grim determination on her face. a saw came flying for her....and Guardian reached out with her power over time and space.....slowing the saw's charge and at the same time true freezing it to the point that it became frozen/frosted over and fall to the ground...but before it shattered...she seized hold of it telekinetically. she was the strongest in her family....having demonstrated BRUTAL and creative use with her power in years past...she now exerterd controll over the saw ....which was glowing a sparkling blue hue...with a gesture of her hand (like prue) she sent the saw flying outward....to to destroy the last remaining saws. sliciing through them and freezing them on contact......as the last of them fell, Guardian kept this particular saw in her command...as it now hovered vertically behind her.::


i'm going to need this....very soon.


:: as the spirits of the group seem to lift.....an eerie sound was hard....as the walls the floor and the ceiling began to glow with a strange fiber optic sparkle....and a sound of energy in a slow but noticeable crescendo could be heard::


the walls....the ceiling!! they are CLOSING IN ON US!!!

:: the walls and the ceiling...unbreakable and compososed of vibranium/adamantium were now closing in just as Guardian had warned a split second before.....::


Morgan you handle the ceiling as best you can. you four :: pointing at the others:: help me try to STOP THE WALLS!!


:: facing one of the walls....she extends her hands in a stop gesture....a bell toll is heard as she begans to FIGHT wall with her telekinetic AND temporal freezing power....the wall began to shimmer and glow....it seems to be RESISTING Guardian, matching her effort and escalating its own. impossible as that seemed....but it was a true testiment to A.I.M's technology response...and if the one wall was giving HER this much resistance.....the others surely had their work cut out for them::
 
Karma
Karma
always creative!
<< as Guardian dispatched the last of the saws ....and the rest of the group seemed to be feeling a little more revived, Guardian's warning about the walls and the ceiling began to glow with that fiberoptic sparkle before they began to close in slowly, steadily and without waver. her eyes widened>

there's no way to GET OUT! these walls are indestructible!

<< she heard Guardian's direction...and being that she could fly, Spellbinder was the most logical choice to deal with the ceiling. as she flew upward....she generated a VIOLET up draft of wind...which fought against the ceiling, and she herself met the ceiling at the center.....pushing up against it with ALL her physical might....shift x class super strength, allowing her to lift/press 50 tons...she met the wall with her strength and her winds...but the wall met her back with irresistable force itself...attempting to become an immovable object!>>

UGGHHHH!!! this sucker's THICK!

<< she gritted her teeth as she continued to struggle with all her might>>

<< the sound of the energy cresendo continued...slowly but steadily, almost as if this was the point of no return. what happened in the next few minutes would determine if the group would survive to finally reach NERVOUS>>
 
:: Cameron watched as the walls began to close down in on them and casually commented on a very dangerous situation. ::

"Jesus! I feel like i'm in the Temple of Doom!"

:: Looking towards Morgan who seemed to be taking the brunt of the wall he lashed out at her with his mind as she soon found his signature electric blue crackling energy around her. He was augmenting her strength with his own Telekinesis which would drastically further her already super strength. Looking around the room he cast his hands out as he manifested his telekinesis in the form of hundreds straight and thick beams that cast themselves across the room and helped to stop the pressing walls around them. ::

"We have to put as much force as possible on these walls or we're fucked!"

:: He continued to allow his telekinetic beams help support the work of Morgan and Alison. The amount of beams he was able to put out allowed him to express much more of a physical asset. He was able to express strength that the Six had never seen him do before. ::
