New X-Men Respect Thread

Hellion & X-23

The duo leave to rescue Cessily. Hellion provides the transportation – he blasts through the roof, shaking the entire mansion, and flies too fast for the Sentinels to properly track them. X-23 stabs a man’s head through a door and takes a barrage of bullets. The men try to flee, but Hellion stands in the path of their car letting it crash right into his forcefield and flipping it. He then pulls the door off and takes the man’s gun with TK. X-23 can tell the man is telling the truth (enhanced senses) – she mercilessly kills him anyway.

New X-Men vs Stryker’s Purifiers

Hellion TK blasts an assailant off of Emma Frost. Surge speedblitzes two purifiers, but gets hit by a third. The Purifiers are prepared and have weapons that can penetrate Hellion’s TK forcefield.

Mercury and Rockslide use their durability and strength to pummel the Purifiers. Dust awakens amid the chaos – enraged she turns to dust-form and attacks, shredding off the armor, skin, flesh and organs of the Purifiers right down to the bone.

X-23 arrives in time to save Noriko. She takes machinegun fire as she guts one of the Purifiers, then shows some acrobatic skills as she dices up the other two.

X-23

X-23 has a built in trigger that sends her into berzerker rage as soon as she picks up the specific scent. She started her conditioning early, when she was 8 years old.

Once in Berzerker Rage X-23 has absolutely no control over her actions and attacks anyone in her path placing the entire mansion at risk. As usual Emma Frost was right.

X-23

So far the trigger has made her kill her own Mother, Sensei, Cousin and Aunt.

X-23

The trigger itself was only ever used in extreme circumstances. The Kingpin once hired Weapon X to take out a person called Dilorenzo. Who happened to have the power of invisibility. A unique criminal in the sense that he could walk right through Kingpins security and not be detected.

As usual Dilorenzo was outsmarted. X-23 posing as the Kingpins kidnapped niece ripped Dilorenzo and his men to pieces, his invisibility was of no help due to X-23's heightened senses.

House of M

During the House of M the New X-Men were training to be fully fledged Shield operatives.

Here are a few feats from the Crossover:

Hellion TK shields block a gun shot from a japanese "terrorist". Mercury uses her body to create a wall between an explosion and her fellow New Mutants. Dust attacks a bomber with a sand cloud and Surge demontrates some super speed.

Hellion TK blasts a group of enemies and contains them in a TK Bubble. Surge fires a Lightning Blast she also manages to take out Ford via an Electric shock. Elixir is taken out by physical means.

House of M

More feats from the Crossover:

Mercury is able to morph her body into various shapes including blades that can hold their own against Donald Pierce's blades. Dust contains an enemy in a Sandstorm while Surge demonstrates more super speed.
Hellion now effected by Wallflowers phermones attacks Surge with a powerful TK Blast. Dust who's also effected keeps Synch from concentrating via a Sandstorm. And another speed feat by Surge.

House of M

A few more feats from the House of M:

Hellions TK Shields hold against Surges Electric Attack. He also blasts Prodigy off a cliff and once Wallflowers phermones wear off he quickly saves him via a TK bubble. Dust traps Jubilee in a sandstorm. Surge electrifies Illyana via her own sword. Surge and Hellion cause more havoc.

Dust

Using Nimrods database Stryker was able to perceive events in the future and alter events them by effecting events in the past. Upon gazing he discovered that Dust may pose a problem to his "flawless" plan. Here Dust rips off the flesh of a few of Strykers men. She strips them right to their bones.

Dust

Dust's abilities can be potentially incredibly deadly. In her first appearance she is found by Fantomex and Wolverine. The slave-traders tried to remove her burka, she tore the them apart right down to the bone. In her dust-form she becomes completely non-biological - a consciousness in living sand - and can blend easily into the environment, undetectable to human and superhuman senses.

Here she refused to comply with Xorn and tried to warn the Professor. Xorn causes her powers to go out of control - making her attack Charles and destroy Cerebra. She escapes under a crack and attacks some students when they try and trap her. The Professor notes how difficult her consciousness is to grasp - her dust form giving her a resistance to telepathy. However she returns to human form to ask his help and is subdued.

Mercury

Mercury is just that, living but inorganic mercury - making her immune to things like Wither's death touch and needing to eat and drink. She's incredibly malleable while at the same time having a great deal of tensile strength and durability, she also has very good speed and dexterity in her liquid form.
1) Shields Sooraya and Noriko from fires and a Sentinel blast. 2) Disarms some policemen.

Here she weaves her way through a laser net to retrieve a briefcase, wraps an enemy up with her body and opens said briefcase by shaping herself to fit the lock.

She has a flashback of discovering her powers, as she's being tortured. It should be noted that even though she's often described as having a "weakness" to electricity, she's still actually a lot more resistant to its effects than any ordinary human and on several occasions has taking electrical shocks sufficient to kill people.

Awesome thread!

Surge

When she first appeared she had little to no control over her powers – explained as the build up of charge causing her brain to function too fast for her to handle. She’s essentially a junkie relying on downers to keep herself in check, her accelerated physiology enhancing this addiction. Here she electrocutes a shopgirl and steals from her in order to get some pills.

The other students and Wolfsbane arrive, they knock her pills away causing her to go berserk. The students can't get close, except for David who manages to predict where her electricity will be fired. They calm her down and take her back to the mansion, where Beast explains how her powers work - she's constantly draining charge from the electrical sources around her in order to recharge.

Once she's fitted with glove devices by Beast she gains a more fine control over her abilities. Here she discharges just enough electricity to shock Elixir into consciousness.

Surge

Now that she's gotten her powers under control her main offensive is often electrical blasts. Here she uses them to create a distraction, as they try to help Wither escape; shocking Mercury and frying a group of robots.

As well as electrical blasts, she has an accelerated physiology and can channel the power into superspeed - allowing her to move at Mach-1. Here she disappears too fast for Elixir to notice; streaks across the city and the mansion grounds at superspeed, and searches for Dust in the woods with after-images of herself.

Here she speedblitzes a Hulk simulation in the Danger Room to distract him.

Mercury

A few more T-1000-like showings from Mercury.
She can shape her liquid metal limbs into scythes and battering rams for hand to hand combat.

Sneaking into a jail cell, playing basketball and spying on the advisers as a puddle. Interestingly she can still talk even as a puddle of liquid metal.

Showing Wither she's immune to his death touch.

Rockslide

TBH I actually can't find that much on Rockslide. What he's shown is that he's strong, can fire off his limbs as fast projectiles or detach them for other uses and can basically be completely shattered and be reconstituted with a little TK help.

Hellion

Some more Hellion stuff. Using his forcefields against Wind Dancer and the Blob.

Shields the Blackbird with his forcefields as it crashes through the caved in sealed off cliffside tunnel, of about a mile and half in length.

Some miscellaneous scans. Shows some inherent leadership ability. And dates the three Stepford Cuckoos.

Hellion

Simple telekinetic force constructs à la Invisible Woman.

Manipulates the inside of a safe to open it. Tears the bus open more to look for Tag.

Levitating people.

I hear their next story arc involves Magik and Limo. Should be interesting considering I thought she was dead.
