HEAVY IS THE HEAD: Genosha Mission

[astonishing_xmods]

WHO: Wolverine, Storm, and those who volunteered for the mission.
WHAT: It's time to meet the guy in the helmet and attempt to talk him out of starting WWIII
WHERE: The shores of Genosha, then onto Magneto's palace.
WHEN: Saturday Evening to Sunday Morning
WARNING(S): Could get violent.

It had been a long flight, with Storm's powers managing to create electric fields that jammed most tracking systems, but still had to park the Blackbird itself well away from the Genoshan coast, with a small jet boat being taken the rest of the way. It was a silent wonder as to how they had managed to get this close without alerting any of the local authorities, but Logan assured the team his man on the inside had them taken care of. They just had to put their faith in him. Which, putting faith in Wolverine was one thing, but in a total stranger? That was a bit more difficult to fathom...

Once the team arrived on a well protected cove, the boat was hidden under practical camouflage (as using Storm's powers to hide it in fog would just trip alarms. No-Girl, Martha, was left with the ship to shield it psychically if needed, and send a long range alert to Cerebro if something went wrong.

Wolverine took them up a steep, rocky hill, and to one of the walls of Genosha's government sanctums, the very one that house Magneto's steel palace, and they waited for their contact to arrive...

"You know, even with all that cloud cover, there's still a kind of... dark beauty, to the ocean at night, don't you think?" Bridget had been staring out to the horizon, seeing little specks of light. Other boats, he assumed, doing late night fishing.

She nodded. "To those with the eyes to see it and the heart to appreciate, even the darkest roads holds beauty, even the darkest hours hold light." She had confidence they would get through this. They had to. And she would do all she could to get all these children home safe... to assure that home would be safe.

Bridget nodded, as well. "Yeah, 's why I'm not that worried... I have faith this will work. Because there's still light out there, right? Hasn't gone out yet..." He'd never met Magneto. But from everything Xavier had said about him... Bridget knew in his heart of hearts that he was a good man underneath it all. He'd listen to reason.

She nodded. "The light is still strong, we will find it, not matter the darkness." Terra and Ven. Their light was too strong to go out, and so was hers. They would help here, and they would find each other again. She was sure of it.
