Trapped and trying to find a way out

[Darkestic]

Deirdre nodded her head.

Deirdre: Take care of them, K'tem.

K'tem charged at the guards and grabbed the men and throwing them around.

[Darkestic]

Deirdre ran into the groups of guards and knocked them down with a blast of telekinesis.

K'tem kept the guards away from Deirdre.

Lyan sighed again. Why was all of this violence necesesary? Violence was what caused his pains, wich he could feel every day.

[Darkestic]

Teh guards lay on the ground.

K'tem: Are they still alive?

Deirdre: I didn't kill them, I just put them into a little slumber.

Deirdre looked at Lyan. She walked over to him with K'tem.

Deirdre: Come on!

Deirdre ran down a hall that is empty. K'tem followed by walking, he kept his eyes on Deirdre. He wondered why Lyan looked a little under the wheater.

[Midnight]

Further into the MRC, Jasper Jones, or what seemed like Jasper Jones, strolled casually to a computer. TJ was still living inside him, living as him. It wasn't like having a shell or a disguise so much as being someone completely different. She could still hear his thoughts, most of them confused about what was going on. Go to sleep, Jasper. It will be easier for you that way. TJ had been close to the Institute, watching through the bars of the gate. She didn't see Nightcrawler and Jasper seemed to think that this place where he worked contained information on Nightcrawler and maybe even Wanda Maximoff.

So that was how TJ found herself in the boy's body in front of a computer screen trying to pull up information. It seemed that the files were secured and Jasper didn't seem to know how to open them. TJ didn't either. She knew every piece of the computer and how it all connected, though she suspected that was Jasper's knowledge. That was hardware and she was working with software.

"Hey Jones, let me help," Chase said, sliding in front of TJ, who nearly jumped out of the boy. He leaned over the keyboard and typed a password quickly into the slot. The file for Nightcrawler popped up. "I dunno why you would want to look at that blue-boy anyway though," Chase said casually, but his icey eyes gleamed consideringly.

"Th-Thanks," TJ stuttered at the good-looking man who had opened the file for her. She scanned the file quickly, Jasper's face becoming morose along with her own feelings. Nightcrawler was only seventeen! And she was sure he would not be happy about finding out his daughter from a different dimension had come to live in his world. Jasper's head dropped to the keyboard and TJ started banging his fist against it. "Seventeen!"

"I was pretty sure that Jasper had a mid-western lack-of-accent," Chase said, a devious smile lighting up on his face. "But your's is plainly New England. Mystique?" he asked, reaching out his hands while creating an energy field that cut off all mutant powers.

TJ felt like she was being ripped out of Jasper, despite how she tried to hold on. She ended up on her butt on the cold metal floor, Jasper's strong body lying besides her. She looked up in horror at the man who looked back with a similar reaction.

"Who... who are you? A girl Nightcrawler? And what the heck did you do to Jones?" Chase found himself looking down at someone very similar to Nightcrawler, complete with a snaking prehensile tail. But she was obviously a girl and if she hadn't been so blue, she might have been a good-looking one. Now Chase, you wouldn't want to discriminate. But the three fingers and pointy ears combined with her looks made her seem... strange. A demon appearance. He was glad his appearance hadn't changed because he was a mutant.

"I'm TJ," TJ replied, leaping to her feet with a move called a 'kip up'. She pretended to dust herself off all the while she was shaking. How did he do that to her? Then she turned her yellow eyes up to his blue ones. "I just possesed him. He should be all right soon."

Chase opened his mouth to answer, but an intercom sounded: "This is an emergancy. Mutants loose in the building!" Chase shook his head slightly, then offered a hand to TJ. "I'm Chase Jordan. Tell you what. That is a very nice power you have and we have a place you would be welcome any time. It is called the Brotherhood, although they do let girls in from time to time," he gave a wink. "Why don't you pick Jasper back up and come with me to check out these mutants, then we'll talk. Deal?"

"Deal," TJ replied with a small nervous smile while reaching out to shake his hand. "Can I get back in him?"

"Oh yeah, sorry about that. My power is to turn off other people's powers." Chase flexed his hands. "There, go ahead and pick Jasper up. You won't want to keep him forever though. His power ain't all that great."

"Don't worry, I have my own powers to help out," TJ replied before repossesing Jasper's body. Together the two men walked toward the disturbance. "I can sense the mutant minds this way!" And that is when they came upon three mutants and a couple of fallen guards.

"Well, what do we have here?" Chase gave a sinister smile while he cut off all of their powers with an energy field.

[Darkestic]

Deirdre and K'tem stopped at a door that was at the end of the hall. K'tem stuck his head inside and then quickly closed it with a pale face. Deirdre looked at him.

Deirdre: What's wrong my love? You look like you swallowed a scarb.

K'tem: Don't go in there...

Deirdre opened the door and she went inside. It was the medical room where mutants are experimented on. Deirdre felt ill from some of the smells in the room. K'tem walked in covering his mouth. They both felt bad for the mutants. William Striker entered from the side of the room with a few guards of his own. Deirdre adn K'tem looked at William Striker with disgust.

William Striker: So you came early. No problem, the others will keep you company.

Deirdre stood there with anger forming inside of her. She glared at William Striker. K'tem stood next to Deirdre angry as well but he remained calm. Guards circled them with guns. Deirdre is curious about the weapons. But she put up a shield to protect her and K'tem from the bullets once the men started firing their guns.

[Midnight]

Chase Jordan had run after the mutants down the hall, but stopped before he went into the experiment room. It was never a pleasent sight at the best of times and with escaped mutants running around he didn't want to also be targeted, not with a potential Brotherhood mutant in tow. He might have tried converting Jasper to the cause but Jasper was a very passive person, and like Chase had said, his powers weren't that... powerful. "Hold on, TJ," he said after peering into the room, holding out a hand in front of Jasper. "Stryker is in there with a bunch of guards. He can probably handle it and if he can't, well screw him anyway. Never liked the man." He gave Jasper a grin which felt weird. It was the type of grin he used mostly only on ladies, and he knew there was a girl possesing Jasper, but it was still strange. "You might want to ditch Jones now. It'd be better if we didn't drag him all over town."

Jasper's head nodded and then he collapsed. Chase just managed to keep him from hitting the floor as TJ soared out of him. She landed solidly on a wall, just clinging to it.

"Nice," Chase Jordan looked up, admiration in his voice and mischief in his eye. "Anyway, let's go, babe." He started striding down the hallway toward the exit, making sure that TJ was crawling along the walls after him. She was, and her yellow eyes gleamed. TJ might someday be able to get a nice paycheck with her abilities. Stryker and the now-deceased Mad Marcus would have been happy to have a mutant posses others and bring them to them. Jasper was left lying on the floor, his eyes shut and shaggy hair falling over his face.

*Exit Chase Jordan and TJ*

[Darkestic]

Deirdre and K'tem glared at Styker. "Deirdre, you can't kill him." K'tem told her. Deirdre's anger built up and K'tem could tell. Deirdre crossed her arms and blew the humans away from her. the guns were crushed into little bits. Deirdre and K'tem stood next to each other. "K'tem, shall we do this together." Deirdre asked. K'tem nodded his head.

Stryker: Those abilities of yours won't work.

Deirdre: I am the daughter of Apocalypse, just try me.

Deirdre put alot of power into a psychic ball that she held above her head. K'tem kept the guards off of Deirdre.

[Darkestic]

Deirdre glared at Styker. K'tem got shot in the shoulder by a gun. Deirdre looked at K'tem wishing to not lose her beloved again.

Deirdre: I'LL BLOW THIS WHOLE PLACE TO PIECES!!

Deirdre made the ball so big and let it go, the psychic powered ball blew the MRC sky high. Deirdre and K'tem used their powers to shield one another. They did not like that place. They took to the sky and looked at the ruins left. Deirdre felt real bad about the other mutants in the building.

[Darkestic]

Deirdre and K'tem left the area. K'tem carried Deirdre on his back while she slept.

*Exit K'tem and deirdre*

[Midnight]

Jasper's still form was buried in a pile of rubble, one stone leaving a large gash on his forehead, another crushing his leg. The pain revived him from the effects of his possesion by that one strange mutant. TJ she said she was. Through the place where he was trapped, he saw two of those mutants fly away. "Oh yeah, thanks alot," he muttered, his voice weak with pain. Maybe he could solder his leg, but he had to get that large stone off it first, and he was in no condition to do that. "Help?" he called out softly, then louder "Help! HELP!" Now what would he do? The place where he worked was destroyed.
