~Alex let out an irritated sigh.~ My father. All his kids call him 'The General'.... He wanted all of us to get some sort of martial arts training.... Maria, the oldest, took boxing, Jessica, the middle child, took Akido, and I, being the Youngest, took Bando Thaing..... ~she tossed the rock away and re-crossed her arms~
~Alex stopped walking.~ The General made us all learn a fighting form because of the "Mutant Threat" ~Using her fingers to represent Quotations~ When I found out I was a mutant I told my mother... The General thinks Im at boarding school.... Only my mother knows. Neither he nor my sisters know about me.
~Alex nodded her head into the air. In the distance could be seen Two small dots. Both getting bigger by the second. Alex narrowed her eyes and then they widened.~ ... Blackhawks? ~She stood there with Hex as the Helicopters came closer and landed on the beach, one on either side of them. Military soldiers jumped out of each and a tall man with dark brown, buzz cut, hair stepped out.~ .... General? ~Alex stepped back as the man looked around and pointed out giving the soldiers instructions to secure the area. He stepped up to Alex.~ -Much to my surprise you werent at the boarding school your mother said she sent you too. Good thing I put the tracking node in your bag before you left.- ~the man said, his arms folded behind him.~ ... Daddy what are you doing here?! ~He continued to stand there, very professional.~ -Ive come to take you back. Your.. Illness... Will be taken care of. I have the best medical minds available to fix you.- ~He then nodded to the soldier who stood beside him and the man stepped up to take Alex by the arm. when he grabbed her she twisted his arm around and put him to his knees like she did to Cy earlier. But the grown man yelled out in pain for she did it right this time. When she did it to Cy she didnt want to hurt the guy she liked. She then placed her foot on the soldiers back and pushed forward before getting behind Hex.~ -Im sorry Ma'am but I am going to have to ask you to step aside- ~He said speaking to Hex~
Hex sneered and a feral growl escaped her lips. "Back up and get the hell off this island.... Apep!" The skys darkened and the dying monster horse ran out of the woods. He stopped and reared in front of Hex and Alex. She grabbed Alex and threw her onto Apep's back. "Apep go into the dark forest and take Alex with you. While you go inform the Rangers to secure the house. I'll take care of these guys." Apep nodded and turned. "Hang on Alex!" He laid his ears back and raced off.
~Alex gasped out as she was thrown onto Apep. The General jumped back~ -What the hell is that?! OPEN FIRE!- ~There were about 4 soldiers in each of the Blackhawks. Not counting the General and the pilots. All eight soldiers opened fire upon Apep with their standard M-4 Carbines, while the General made his way to the Black Hawk he came out of.~ -Take that thing down! Dont let it take my Daughter!- ~The General lifted his Pistol and point at Hex.~ -Do not interfere with this. It does not concern you. I just want to help my daughter.-
She laughed and raised her hand, slowly her nails began to extend to a dangerous length. "I dont plan on letting you leave this Island." She grinned and her teeth began to sharpen.
Apep grunted and began to cough. "Hang on Alex... Duck down." His steps faltered as a bullet ripped through his hind quarters. He lifted his head and called to the trees. "We have company boys! Get to work! Hex needs help! Half of you to the house, the other to the beach!" A wind blew through the trees and the leaves seemed to whisper. Three men ran out of the light side, and three from the dark. They broke into the house and called to everyone. "EVERYONE INTO THE LIBRARY! TOP FLOOR MOVE!.. Raken we have trouble on the beach!"
One ranger ran over to the hut that was given to Incitatus. "Sir, Hex needs your help."
Raken lookd up and nodded, he ran outside and quickly whistled loudly. His dragon talim swooped down and he leaped on its back as he quickly soared over to the beach. They saw numerous soilders and helicopters and the dragon landed right next to Hex with Raken hoping off by her side
"what is the problem"
=After Raken ran out Jason looked to the others and then ran off too. After he got out of view of everyone he turned to shadow and disappeared to reform outside. He looked to Hex and to the soldiers.=
Hex! We can not kill them! Xavier would take it out on our hides!
=Shadow jumped at one of the two groups of four and blew up into a thick smoke. The four soldiers yelled out in confusion and fired wildly. No bullets came out of the smoke but the sounds and flashs from the guns could be seen. His plan was to incapacitate them. Just not kill them.=
~Alex freaked as bullets tore into Apep~ APEP! ~she looked back as the action faded from sight~ We have to go back! If anyone can stop my father its me!! ~The General looked to the group shrouded in darkness then fired into the smoke. He then pointed to hex again~ -I dont care about your stupid Island. she is MY daughter and I have the right to claim her. Give her to me and I promise I will leave this place alone. I realize it is not on any of our maps for a reason.- ~He then looked to his men, seeing they were giving off the wrong signal to the people of the island.~ -CEASE FIRE!- ~All the Soldiers stopped fireing but kept their aim on Hex and Raken.~ -Now release my soldiers, give me my daughter. and we will be on our way.-
Hex held out her hand to stop Raken. "Sir your daughter was sent here to get help and I wont let her leave. I dont care who you are. If you're trying to cure her, then you are not her father. If you were her father, then you'd be ok with her just the way she is.... Last chance." She growled and took a step towards him, her physical appearance changing. "GET OFF MY ISLAND!"
Apep coughed and glanced back at her. "I'm ok. Just hang on. Hex will handle it."
~Alex shook her head~ NO! ~She jumped off Apep and rolled. she got to her feet and ran as fast as she could back to the Beach. The General sighed.~ -I was hoping for a peaceful resolution.- ~He looked to his soldiers.~ -We have a mutant enemy Men. Prepare yourselves.- ~as soon as he said that the 4 soldiers not in the black smoke tapped their wrists and their suits crackled with energy. An electrical explosion came out of the black smoke sending Shadow flying out of the trap and freeing the remaining 4. ((Already got the okay to do that.)) All of the 8 soldiers dropped their ammo clips that were marked with a red ribbon and reloaded with a clip marked with a blue one.~ -Now this is the last chance. Return my daughter to me. I have already been too the "Institute" Alex was at first and the man in the Bald man in the wheel chair said you would be compliant. At least he had enough sense to avoid blood shed. Wether mutant or human.-
=Shadow yelled as he skidded in the sand. He got to his feet and shook it off. He made his way over to Hex and Raken putting a hand up.=
Hex, Raken. Please. This situation has to be avoided at all costs. If he says he will leave without a fight then lets hear what he has to say...
=His voice was distorted so Hex and Raken couldnt tell it was him.=
The one I represent already sent me a message about this mans arrival. I was hoping it would not of gotten this far so quickly.
Just then a shadowy figure comes riding in on a bovinus (is that a word?) steed as dark as he is. He begins to show off and jumps on his steed's back and begins to stand with his arms crossed.
"Good job Bessie, just like we practiced."
Bessie hearing her name decided to come to an abrupt halt which sent the unaware Doorman flying ahead and faceplanting in the ground. He is then caught in the middle of both groups with a bunch of guns pointed his way. He tries backing up and getting on Bessie but who is apparently smart enough to get the hell out of the way on her own. He laughs a bit nervously and begins to plea for his life.
"He...hehehe...Excuse me but if you are trying to kill them then do you think you could possibly wait until I get out of the way? You don't want any innocent bystanders getting hurt do you?"
