Heroes Uprising part 14.

"Manny gets back up. He didn't take kindly to that, so he punches Dave down himself, sending him into a chair and knocking it over, and even causing Dave to bleed from the nose"

Manny: How about you calm the FUCK down Dave?! You're not the only one that's worried about Sandra!!

Milo: I'm going to risk it Fawkes..I will..Marie..I love you but I can't stay on the sidelines.

"He kisses her, getting ready to teleport."
...............
Dave: OH YEA! WELL YOU DUMB ASS! SHE WAS WITH YOU! MAYBE IF YOUR DIDN'T SLOW HER ASS DOWN SHE'd BE FINE AND DONT YOU TOUCH HER AGAIN!

"He teleports away, reappearing behind Manny kicking him, before teleporting away, reappearing outside, anger inhis eyes, his worry for Sandra, has transfered into hatred from Manny"

Dave: Come on you
.................
"Claire is healed, but unconscious..Jade the same, Alice looks around at there surroundings"

Alice: Hmm..it appears..in a realm of complete nothingness...were dealing with a very powerful mutant, one who wanted us dead, but some other force...has saved us, possibly Zulan.
.................
"Carmen pouts wrapping her hands around James, and pressing against him, laying a kiss on his cheeks."

Carmen: I understand..Jamsie, heroes heroes, but even heroes..need..to....."Pauses." Relax....
.................
"Unlike the last attack, Kano is hit full force, blood flowing from his now open wounds, the powers Amber had commanded..it was insane, he had never come up to a force like this not even the Leader."

Kano: Damn it..what's going on..did Milo's twin juice you up or something? God..where the hell is he, Milo should be here..too.

"Getting up, he generates geothermal energy, forming fire, and causing massive gusts of wind, he sends out his torrents of fire directed at Amber, as well as directing the wind into the shape of blades to cut her."

Kano: FEEL THE WRATH OF THE GOD WHO COMMANDS THE STORMS!
.......................
"Keeth yells out in agony, as the attack hits him, he's rendered unconscious from a full power blow from the Rulk."

Keeth: d..damn it..Amber..

"Just then, Amber notices Keeth go down. Something clicks in her, and the man, who was watching from the room above, notices. Amber gets hit full on with Kano's attack, but at the last second"

Amber: SHIELD OF SERAPHIM!

"The warped shield of the angels of god protect her at the last second. Just then, Kujon, Peter and Rulk disappear"

"Amber is painting."

Amber: Damn it...damn it all

Man: It seems that she managed to control it at the last second to save the Ghost Rider...This is why it's so troublesome to have this great power inhabit a human being with emotions of normal range

"Meanwhile, Namini and Shari are locked in combat, ignoring everything around them. Shari attack after attack of amaterasu flames, and each time, Namini counters it with a shinra tensei. Finally getting no where, Namini summons forth the elemental magic and performs a Fire Vortex Crusher on Shari, who blocks by summoning forth Susanoo. The two friends stare at each other"

Namini: So...is that everything you got?
Shari: I'm just getting started...Kamui

"Shari calls forth the final skill hidden in those mutated eyes...and signals her own demise. Namini gets hit from every possible point by attacks ranging from normal punches to amaterasu flames, all the while Shari seemingly does not move from her place"

Shari: I'm going to end you...if you keep getting in my way

"Namini uses regenerative magic to heal her wounds before they get to her, and pushes the black flames away from her by teleporting them. She's hurt, her wounds not healing as they should...and also hesitant"

Namini: And if I step back what? What are you going do to?
Shari: Destroy that god forsaken village and everyone on it...except you and Shiyo...nobody else deserves to breath.
Namini: You're just like him...
Shari: Maybe...but I don't care. I've had enough of being treated as a monster just because of the family I was born in. They want the Uchiha's to be monsters...I'll gladly oblige them!!

---

Manny: Well. That backfired

"Manny gets back up. He had no intentions of starting a fight. He was just trying to get Dave to calm down. He sits back down and sighs"

Manny: Hope Sandra wakes up soon...

----

James: Carmen...not now. Can't it wait till after we deal with this...

"James is blushing, trying to focus on the mission"

Angie: If it is Zulam, why trap us here? I agree thought, whatever force this is...

*She steps over to check on Jade and Claire.*

Angie: Well they'll be alright at least.

...................................

Tesla: Dave just, needs some time. He do love Sandra, but he's very, dear I say overprotective. When anything happens to her, he just looses it.

Alice: I can't..say the same..they appear to be sleeping, but this entity has stripped us of our powers, and transported us into a fictional scenario, for all we know..they may be dead.
.................
Chulance: too too much..guy needs to loosen up, Manny you okay?
Mikey: want me to punch em in the face?
..............
"Carmen grins and backs off"

Carmen: Alright then James.
.................
Milo: And I depart.

"Teleports away,reappearing at his lake house, he goes to speak to Angel, and Wave."
.................
Kano: YOU THINK YOUR ACT OF PITY WILL STOP MY WRATH!? THEN BE SILENCD YOU DEMONIC SCUM! YOU ARE THE WORST!

"He summons more torrents of fire, this time, using the Geothermal energy to heat the very air, he sends out a torrent of firery winds."

Kano: BURN!

"She gets called back to reality by Kano's yell, and easily counters the attack with a Dragu Slave. As she prepares to attack"

Man: ENOUGH! Amber...Fior, Shari. We're leaving

"Shari stops her attacks on Namini, and Fior his on Yamairo. All 3 of them slowly back away"

Man: It was nice meeting you Yamairo...I'd like to thank you for looking over my little experiment for as long as you did

"He grins, referring to Isabel. Yamairo looses it again, but before he can do anything, all 4 of them vanish"

Yamairo: DAMN IT! DAMN THAT BASTARD!!

"Space warps around him as Yamairo yells into the sky"

Justin: No Mikey, starting a fight will yield nothing in the end. Give the man some time.

....................................

Angie: *sigh* All this and we still haven't found Zulan.

"Kano brings everyone back to Genosha"

Kano: Yamairo, I know Isabel's disappearance bothers you, but for now we should focus on tracking down Amber, we know she's involved, and it seems injuring Keeth can briefly snap her back to reality.
Surfer: that's not much information, are you to say we harm a friend to weaken her
Dale: It's only logic, we have more healers here..then..well anywhere, we'll be good.
..............
Mikey: fine..I wanted to punch some..
Chulance: chil.
............
Alice: Probably..never wil..at this rate..what we've been captured by is violent..

Angie: Grr, damnit... is it, to much to ask, to just be able to get the man back, to be with him again.

....................................

Justin: Punching isn't always the best solution.

Dracarot: Yeah I missed most of this, though technically I don't think any of us would mind having to quit our jobs saving people because nobody decided to harm anybody. *summons a chicken dinner along with some milk* I really missed you up their Em, no matter how many other people I saw, I still missed you. Heck even when we were watching Jesus and Mohammed arm wrestle I couldn't stop thinking about you.

*Tesla steps over by Sandra's bed.*

Tesla: Still, it's strange no the less for her to be out of it so long.
Justin: Sandra's pulled through many hard situations, I have full confidence she'll get through this. Just give it time.

Alice: Forces..are at work against your relationship, I simply seek Ikon, he was Feline's daughter, one of my closest friends, I promised to save..him..even if she did turn out to be a traitorous bitch, I want to keep my word.
..............
Mikey: I know sometimes it's CLOBBERING!
Chulance: But every..time we know what's going on, now she's the Dark Phoenix again, and we know how Dave gets about all of this..I'm surprised he hasn't shot us all, and takenh er to some remote island paradise.
.............
"Emma smiled"
Emma: Aww Dracy,I love you.

"She eats more of her food"

Emma: So how..were things there? You've gotten more powerful, who trained you? Also maybe you should see your family, your mother's really depressed.

Dracarot: *sigh* I would if I could but as long as the U.S. is still under that dictatorship I can't risk my family like that, but hopefully my new tricks can do something about that. As for who taught me, I was merely taught to expand my ideas on my powers and I started trying different scenarios with them. But basically I had a sit down with Eisenhower who taught me tactics and just helped me think outside the box.

Angie: Apparently. *sigh* Damnit Ikon... where are you?

......................................

Tesla: I think it's taking all he has to restrain himself, at least somewhat. And there is no place else to go, damned HAMMER is crawling around everywhere, and the shadows, how long till they move?

*Terrell's symbiote suit shifts into a pair of jeans, a white t-shirt, a pair of black and white sneakers, and light black jacket. His face showed seriousness as Riya explained what was going on.*

Terrell: Anyone..? Who's got the biggest lead on this shit? Take me to them. Compound is back in business... Wait! Compound is fucking dead. Union is in the game.

Emma: Woah you met alot of cool people, I wonder what I could do, if I trained in the afterlife, well I'm just glad you can actually fight now. "Smiles" You think we should be helping out dealing with the killings and all that?
...................
Chulance: Who knows..and NO Mikey you can't clobber the shadows
Mikey:.>Damn..T_T
.................
Riya: Alright let's go to James. He usually knows what's going on.

"she converted them both into oxygen, and they reappeared behind James, and Carmen."

Yamairo: I have no problem with focusing on Amber. It seems those bastards took Isabel, so if we find Amber...we find Isabel

"Aaron is still knocked out, as well as Keeth. James, Carmen, myself and Harry enter the room"

Me: James just filled us in as soon as you arrived!! This is insane
Harry: I'm so kicking those bastards asses...

"Namini is sitting in the side lines, quiet and seemingly uncaring of the conversation. She's focusing on something"

Justin: I'm going to take a look around, check things out. Tesla, Chu, Manny, I bid you farewell for now. I'll check in with you guys later.

*As he left. We see Luke outside, where he spots Dave and walks up to him.*

Luke: Dave, hmm, how are you holding up man?

Dave: Sandra's..been taken out, the Dark Phoenix is back..again, I was trying to be ok with her new life..as the Phoenix..but truthfully I'm not, I miss the normal life..we..had, living in the apartment, normal jobs, David safe..but now it's back...the whole craziness..
..................
Kano: So now what? Why don't we awaken Keeth, we can use him as a bargaining chip with Amber? James can you contact Amber, Fior, any of them or send out a global telelpathic message, but block HAMMER from it?
Carmen: Ooh, I wanna use my ability against them...that would be fun. "smiles."

James: I've been trying that for days. I think that hesitation you saw in battle today was just a spur of the moment. It doesn't even necessarily mean she's back to normal
Yamairo: Yeah. During the last time she lost it, she actively showed interest in keeping Keeth alive, despite having completely turned evil

Kano: I know, but when we hurt Amber, she briefly retained her senses, it's a long shot, but we hurt him, then unleash everything we have at her, if we bring her down, I'm suer Fior, and SHari will be easy enough to deal with.
Surfer: I suppose I'll help, I'm none for my speed..but so was Peter, I hope the X Force make there way here soon.
Carmen: I want to help too, I can use the Speedforce.

"At that Milo arrives with The X force, bringing Shawkun, having used Misery's power to trap Shawkun at the lake house again."

Milo: Fawkes..is here and so Am I.

Luke: Hmm, I see.

*Luke remains silent for a moment.*

Luke: I don't know what to say, but I see the way she is around you. She counts on Dave. Being the Phoenix isn't easy, and I think she realizes that now, she's, accepted it. And I think, she could probably use you being there for her. It'd be a lie to say there won't be hardships to come, but, it's a part of life, and we have to just deal with such things and keep moving forward.

Yamairo: About time you got back...You already know what happened right?

Harry: Guys, I'm just going to point this out...night time is about to hit again. I don't know if now that we've figured them out, they'll continue with the mass killings but...yeah, there's chance they will...

*Trapped back at the lake house, Shawkun simple takes a seat, leans back and is about to sleep. Amber, Milo, and the rest was of no concern to him. And since he was trapped here anyway, why not treat it as a vacation at least.*

Dave: I know..but our "Hardships" are alien invasions...adopted daughters coming from the dead to kill us, and the shadows trying to eat us, and making our dark personalities come out! I mean it's crazy..I...love..her it's just hard.
..............
Milo: Yes, I know all about what's happened, I've been busy grieving, my best friend..happens to be dead, and...now he's under control, so this thing kills people, and controls..them..this is just..great. We've been feeding them an arsenal of powers..no telling what they can do especially with Kujon.
