The Ashes of the Phoenix [OPEN]

WHO: John Sublime, "No Girl", the U-Men, and their unfortunate target... The Insitute
WHAT: Sublime's U-Men attack the school. They're aiming for the sublevels. Stop them at all costs!
WHERE: Throughout campus
WHEN: Past midnight, Wednesday-Thursday
WARNING(S): Gonna get violent.


The time was now. The media attention over his followers actions was too much. And after all, Xavier's little henchmen in London had figured it out. He was sure of it. There was no more time to bide. No more room for hesitation. It was act now, or the revolution would end in a prison cell, festering away in the disgusting care of this unclean world. Sublime couldn't stomach it. Couldn't fathom it. And whatever god help those who stood in the way of him and his dream of Homo Perfectus.

"All units are in place," Sublime whispered, peering out over the immaculate green, covered in moonlight, staring a drilling, piercing hole into the mansion. "Martha... it's your turn now," another whisper, as the floating apparatus before him, holding a strange glowing orb, began to shine even more brightly.

Just like that, the security systems failed. And just like that, Charles Xavier gasped and sent out a short, psychic burst to all X-Men, perhaps to everyone in the school, before he was overwhelmed and silenced, collapsing from his bed to the floor, stunned into sleep by a psychic force even he was not prepared for.

"This is it, Martha... our dream... U-Men! Bring me the Ashes of the Phoenix!" And like that, dozens of the men from the blurred video that Glamour and Spy had managed to obtain swarmed the ground, organic and mechanical, using a plethora of stolen mutant powers, attacked.


[[ This is it! Our first major action post, and in X-Men tradition, it's a direct attack on campus. Feel free to start your own threads. The U-Men will be NPC'd by the mods. Their ultimate goal is the filed away genetic samples of Jean Grey in the sublevels. They must be stopped, before someone uses them to integrate Jean's powers into a U-Man. ]]

"Oh--hello."

It sounds more like a question on her part than a greeting but she's never really sure about Moxxi. For instance, they're being attacked and the woman seems not all upset.

"Any chance you know why we're being attacked?"

"Does it matter?" Moxxi chuckled. "They're tearing down our home and causing one hell of a ruckus." And it didn't seem like the fighting would be done anytime soon.

"Moments like these mean you should be doing one of two things, sugar. Make them regret ever coming here, or keep out of the way until it's all over." Simple, right.

"So, sugar. What'll it be?"

That makes her pull up straight, a little defensive. She's not exactly a fighter, not on a field like this.

"Neither. Going to help with the kids and try to keep the assholes out. My powers aren't exactly the best for outright attacks but defending I can do."

Moxxi was many things. Violent, suggestive, inappropriate, probably a little bit crazy too. But she also had a bit of a soft spot for kids. She thought about all the violence she went through while she was growing up and how it shaped her into the woman she was today.

"Not by yourself, you won't."

Madeline raised an eyebrow. Why not? Or was it an offer to help. She wasn't really sure.

"I can take care of myself if need be. A small grizzly is still much stronger than a human."
