klassic entered the crude opening first and scanned the area prepared to lay down a steady stream of fire from his weapon if need be, but it appeared that his tactic had done its job. He signaled to x23 for her to move up and sweep the next corridor. He motioned to the staircase at end of the hall. He signaled that she would go up, and he would clear the bottom, he knew well that she could handle the task and that it was he who might need help, but it was a tactical decision and technically x23 did out rank him not that such things mattered in the field.
Klassic swept to the right around a different corridor, the battlement wasn't very big, but it was important, the long rifle Klassic had brought would do some good from the top of the tower, but the tower had to be taken first.

"Alright get ready," Eliza said suddenly powering up and taking off into the air, amazingly it seemed like att the attacks in her direction missed both of them. She landed well behind enemy lines, "You okay?" she asked Lance looking him up and down to make sure he was alright.

X23 nodded, then ran up the stairs in a silent crouch, reaching a corridor above. A guard dropped, his throat slit, and she moved on. As more guards walked around a corner, she pressed against a wall. The both ended up with claws in their hearts. The blood dripped from X23's hands, and her green eyes were as hard as steel as she kept moving.

"Fine." Lance blinked, still perplexed at how powerful she was.
"So, how's life on the other side, Magzie? Doing well? Apocalypse acting as though he's the replacement for your father? Or as another pathetic fanboy?" Hannah sneered, lazily slicing people in half.

Orion moved along the battlefield, the energy pulsing around him. He laughed with the feeling of it, the power running through him. Men dropped like flies as he approached them, others quivered and shook as jolts of electricity racked their bodies. Two men spontaneously combusted. This was why he was called Death.

"Lucky for me he's a wonder lover, unlike your mate," Magzie sneered slicing through a rebel who had gotten to close, "But I'm sure you knew that about him."
"So what is the queen like?" Eliza asked zigg zagging around rubble getting closer to Apocalypse.

"A lot like you, just...older and no accent." Lance muttered, following.
"Well, well. That's not saying much, considering my mate is dead." Hannah gave a scornful laugh, beheading one of the foe mutants.
((have we decided who is gonna win Hannah and Magzie's little battle?))

Klassic had run into little resistance on the west and south sides, but as he approached the corner leading to the north face of the battlement, he heard voices, an knew they were not of his soldiers. He ducked low and peaked around the corner to see what he was running into. There were seven men stnading there firing at the three of Klassics own outside. There was no way Klassic could get them all in one go, but he could draw them away and hopefully get the rest of them shot by his men outside. Klassic pulled back around the corner and readied himself. He pulled out two throwing daggers and readied them, keeping his rifle near by. He rolled out and poped up to a knee, throwing the two daggers at two different people. One his its mark right through the neck of one man, while the other sunk into the arm of another, not doing its job, but resulting in a time differential that was to Klassics advantage. HE quickly picked up his rifle, firing from the hip. He caught a bullet in the chest, just above he heart, and another bullet in the stomach while yet another pegged him in the left leg. Klassic kept going though, he could not fail, failure ment too much. Just as he had predicted the men turned and as they did were shot in the back by the three outside. Klassic moved to the window and signaled his men inside. He would need thier help in his current condition. He collapsed on the ground and had no other choice but to tear the sleeves off of his coat and cut a long strip out of it to bandage his wounds. Klassic started with the leg wound, the bullet had made it clean through and missed shattering the bone. Klassic had been fortunate there, however not so lucky with the last two. Klassic as preparing to dress his chest wound as the three made it inside and one bent to help him. The bullet had to be dug out, but Klassic did not make a sound. The wound was dressed and upon inspection the stomach wound would be fatal. It was dressed as best it could to slow the bleeding, but it would kill Klassic, unless he could be healed within the next thirty minutes.
Klassic ordered his crew onwards, taking up the rear position in case of ambush from behind. They just had to sweep the eastern wall and join up with the other two soldiers before they could march upstairs and rejoin x23.

"Is she pretty?" Eliza asked stopping for a moment to catch her breath, "What does tha king look like?"
((Hannah))
"Yes, but don't worry you'll see him soon," Magzie smiled.

"Yes, she is. She's going to have a baby soon." Lance rasped out. "The king and she seem to be perfect for each other."
"We'll see about that, Magzie." Hannah returned the smile, before thrusting her hand foreward and releasing a blast of lightning.

Magzie laughed and let the lightening bounce off her armor and back at Hannah, "I've changed a little since we last battled."
"Well here goes," Eliza said looking over her shoulder at the large figure of Apocalypse. Without warning she grabbed Lance by the collar and kissed him, "Wish me luck," she said breathlessly before powering up and taking off.

((sigh, bye bye Lancey))
Lance toppled backwards in stunned surprise. "But--" He wasn't given any time to speak as he was attacked by several mutants. He put up a gallant fight, killing ten of his attackers before another one ran him through with a sword.
"I suppose you have, Magzie." Hannah grinned, before slicing the sword towards her.

Eliza glanced back and then looked forward, she had know that would happen, but it hurt all the same, "Oy, Purple n grey butt!" she shouted to Apocalypse.
"Lovely craftmen ship of your sword," Magzie said blocking the attack and slicing towards Hannah herself.

X23 heard the muffled noises of gunfire below her, and the scuffling click of boots as soliders on that floor were drawn to the sound. Pulling a dagger out of a black leather sheath at her belt, she hit one man in the back as he was running. His body flopped on the floor and the others turned to see what happened only to see X23 leaping at them claws first. That done, she retrieved the knife, wiping the blood off of it, trying to clean the crevices of an eagle in the hilt. Two bullets fell from her body as she healed. She tilted her head, listening, and sniffed the air, her eyes scanning every corner. This floor was clear. She decided to wait a few minutes to see if Klassic could catch up with her before she went to the roof.

"Yours isn't bad either." Hannah smirked, ducking under the attack and thrusting upwards.

Klassic's crew had cleared out the rest of the floor without incident, and Klassic gave the order to move up the stair case. There was little interference, x23 had done her job well.
Klassic limped slowly up towards x23, trying to hide his wounds, particularly from himself and his fellow soldiers, but it was his problem, no one else need concern themselves with it.
"cleared out?" Klassic asked x23 as he approached, his squad fanning out to provide a secure area before the group moved out.

X23 saw the way he limped and smelled the blood on him along with the acids of his stomach, but she did not say anything. If he wanted to keep it to himself, he could do so, there wasn't anything she could do for him, even give sympathy. She was not good at that. "This level is clear, I was wating for you before I moved to the roof," she said, walking over to another staircase up, this one more rikity and made of cheaper metal.

Magzie countered and used the butt of her sword to try to hit Hannah in the face.
