Sinister rolled over, so he faced her, lying on the bed, "Run away with me," he asked her. "Let's escape this fight, this war, and run away together. Live our own, free lives..."

Josephine's eyes went wide and she looked into his eyes studying his face, "We can't, this world will be destoryed if we don't fight for it," she told him and leaned forward and kissed him.

"Others would fight," He told her, "There are a legion of those who would stand against this Evil. No one would miss us. We can go and raise a family. Together. Forever."

Josephine sighed and rested her head in the spot between Sinister's neck and shoulder, "I don't know," she finally said, "I want to go with you, but I also want to stay and fight."

"Then come fight where I fight," he said, "I know a place where we can find shelter. Plan better what our next move will be so we don't have to be holed up in a hotel, ripe for anyone to find us. It's dangerous."

"I promised to fight by Iris' side, and I can't go back on my word," Josephine finally said after a long thoughtful pause, she managed a small smile, "When the battle is over I will gladly join your side wherever you are."

Sinister shook his head, "Don't worry about them, they'll understand you're wanting to stay away. Christian and Shrapnel will easily compensate, strength wise. You won't need to stay."

"But I have to Nathaniel, you don't understand, I've never gone back on my word, and I will fight with them, even if you don't," Josephine said pushing herself away from Sinister and sitting on the edge of the bed. Her hand wandered down to her stomach, it felt strangely warm, but she struggled the feeling off.

"I;m not saying 'run' necessarily," Sinister amended, "But I do believe you need to stop thnking about it while yo ufeel like this. You are obviously in no condition to do much fighting."

'I'll be fine," Josephine growled not looking at Siniste instead she looked out the window at the streetlights below, "Besides they need me I'm the only mutant in the world that can adapt to attacks."

"But you're obviously overexerting yourself," Sinister pleaded, sitting up and putting his hands on her shoulders, "What good are you going to do anybody in the shape your in? You're not well, and you want to go running around trying to save the world? Do you want to die in the process?"

"If it saves the world then I will die in battle," Josephine said and shrugged Sinister's hand from her shoulders, "Besides if I die, you'd just move on, it's not that big of a deal if I die."

Sinister gave her a disgusted look, was she still that daft? "It's a big deal to me, Jo," he said, looking away, "I care about you. I don't want anything to happen to you. I lo--... I just want you to be safe."

Josephine looked at Sinister and studying him for a moment, then pulled the blanket around her and held in closely to her body, "Please don't say anything foolish Sinister. Besides I should get going, they're probably worried about me at the mansion."

"The Mansion will be the first place attacked," Sinister explained, "We should wait, try to surprise the Evil when they do, attack from the back and try to crush them in between. Fighting from the inside of the Mansion will only end when they enter the estate, and trap us all."

"Why do you keep trying to stop me from fighting, it's not your choice it's mine, so back off Sinister," Josephine said fiercely, glaring behind her at Sinister with cold eyes.

Sinister stood, "I'm not stopping you, I'm only trying to find the best sense of the situation for your condition." He walked towards the door, "But if you insist on running into battle unaware of the situation, then I've nothing further to help you with."

Josephine watched him leave but didn't say anything, she let the broken feeling inside her be covered by her thick shell and just let out a sad sigh, "I'll miss you though," she said quietly and drew her knees to her chest and hugged them.

Christian entered the Mansion. He looked sadly at the room where Sinister and Jo had been working, and sighed aloud.
"Don't be so glum, Red," a voice said from behind. Quin tossed him a floppy disk and shrugged, "I managed to gut what was left of the computers. All I could find was whatever was saved last night, before the fire oblitereated whatever was't saved."
Christian nodded, taking the disk, and shaking his friends hand, "Well, it ain't everything, but it's something, right?"

"Hey there cowboy," Amelia said coming out of nowhere and throwing her arms around Christian's waist, "What's that?" she asked curiously looking at the disk.
