Christian nodded, not far behind, "Roger that," he quipped, whole-heartidly ready to rejoin Amelia, and help slay Apocalypse.
Cole's eyes fluttered, and began to roll back, "Sorry," he choked out, "Not running from you again. Hurt more the first time."
Frenzy lurched his hulking frame towards Ellen, and saw her choking his friend. He dropped one of the guards onto the pile of limp bodies, and started towards her, "I've been told not to hurt you Ellen, and I don't want to. But if you can't be strong enough to let him go, I'll have to do something!"

More tears poured out of Ellen's clossed eyes and stuck to her lashes, "Listen if I could I would, it's not a matter of choice," she growled her hand tightening and her other hand balling into a fist in case Kevin came too close.
"Come on, come on, someone's dying!" Iada said running back to Christian and tugging on his sleeve.

Christian fastened his pace, "Lead the way."
Cole's face turned blue, and managed a gurgled whisper, "No worries. Still love ya..." Then passed out.
Frenzy stepped forward, "Last chance, Diamond! You're strong, but you wouldn't like me when I get pissed off!"

Ellen's hand shook as she tried to let go of Cole and couldn't, "Do it Kevin," she said darkly facing him.
Iada's narrowed as she grabbed onto Christian and X-t's hands and ported, it was a blind port using her life energy to pinpoint where she needed to go. She appeared above everyone in the room and she looked down at Ellen, Cole, and Kevin, "Turn off the collar!" she screamed to Christian.

Frenzy lunged towards Ellen, fist at the ready to deck her in the head, "Sorry, Ellen, no hard feelings."
Christian fell from the sky, and reached out as he passed Ellen's collar, and deactivated it before hitting the ground with a hard 'thud'.
He coughed once from the impact, and sat up, grabbing Cole by the back of the head before his limp body hit the ground.
Kevin stopped his hand only two inches from Ellens ear, and shrunk back to normal size, "Jeezum Crow, Christian! Where'd you come from?"

Ellen felt her body become hers once more and Cole taken from her grip, she fell to her knees, her legs unable to support her. She didn't want to open her eyes, she didn't want to see what she did.
Iada leaned heavily against the nearest wall gasping for breath, she wouldn't be able to keep up if she continued this pace at which she was using her powers.

Christian stood and rubbed at his back where he landed, and walked up to Iada, holding out a hand for her to take, "You alright? You're looking worn out."

"I'm fine, don't worry about me, worry bout your friends," Iada said forcing a smile on her face.
"Kevin is he dead?" Ellen asked her voice strangely calm.

"Look for yourself..."
"Reports of my demise have been greatly exagerated," Cole coughed, his eyes opening slowly, "Now gimme a kiss, sweetcheeks."
"They'll be fine," Christian said, waving them off, "I'm worried about you. No offense, but you're our main mode of transportation around these parts, since my car is in the shop... You're my main concern."

"Just tired, we have to keep moving though," Iada said not letting on how tired she really was. The last port had been luck, next time they could end up in a wall.
"Cole you ass," Ellen grinned picking him up with one arm and throwing her arms around him.

"Good, cause we're gonna walk from here. Frenzy!?"
"Sir?"
"Bulk up, you're giving Iada here a ride!"
"Affirmative, boss," Kevin knelt down on a knee in front of Iada, "All aboard, mi'lady."
Cole managed to raise one weak hand around her, "Sorry, didn't do it on purpose." He pulled his head back, "Now, if I remember right, you said you'd marry me and give me a hell of a honeymoon if we ever got free. That offer still stand?"

"Damnit I should have killed you, but alright cause I don't want to be seen as a liar," Ellen said.
"Hey cool," Iada said climbing onto Kevin's back, "So where to now?"

Cole gave her an angry look, "Don't gimme that! You know you can't resist me!"
Christian sighed, "Not sure. Amelia culd certainly use the help freeing the slaves, but I've also no doubt Raphael is knocking on Apocalypse's front gate, IF he isn't already inside."
Kevin stood, Iada's weight not even a factor, "Well, you know what they say: 'They open gates for those who can break them down'."

"Only because I fed you once and now you won't leave me alone," Ellen said making a face.
"I guess we could crash the Apocalypse party," Iada shrugged.

Cole nodded, than looked back at her, "Wait... Did you just call me a dog? Cause I don't remember the last time your leg got hu--"
"Easy, sailor," Christian cut him off, "Time to mosey on down to the palace, and do a little redecorating. Ellen? Think you could muster enough control to get Cole up without injuring him? The tempt can be pretty grand sometimes."

"Aw come on Christian he won't need all of his appendages," Ellen grinned but steadied Cole with her arm around his waist.
"Kevin are those to always bipolar to each other?" Iada asked watching Cole and Ellen.

Kevin nodded, "It's ironically why they don't kill eachother. Not sure why Ellen puts up with his BS all the time though."
Christian smiled at her, "It's too bad that I consider myself taken, otherwise, I'd love to make Cole squirm."
"'Preciate it, pal."

((Gah! Cole I meant cole!!))
"Passion for making sure the species of jerk doesn't get extinct I guess," Iada said and smiled.

"Can you move, slacker," Christian asked, smiling halfly at his downed friend.
"Ellen may need to carry me, but I think I'm good."

Ellen sighed and threw Cole over her shoulder, "Well come on I'm not getting any younger!" she said huffily.
