Title: DARK PHOENIX
Pt-1<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
NEW YORK CITY, NY
The politicians in Washington DC declared New York City a disaster area, and quarantine the entire island of Manhattan, Queens, and parts of the Bronx, calling in and the CDC [Center Of Disease Control] and Marshal Law.
The Army, Air Force, and Marines were dispatched to cover all exits leading in and out of New York. No one was permitted in OR out without special clearance from Washington itself.
The Marines were the first to go in, parachuting from airplanes high above the city, dressed in specially designed spacesuits to keep from having to breathe whatever toxins were affecting the city.
They landed as they were always trained to do, ditching the chutes and arming themselves with weapons and mounted cameras atop their helmets to allow officials back in the `safe zone' to see what was happening.
The Marines moved in quickly and quietly, keeping a distance as they peered through binoculars see the bodies of citizens enthralled in sexual acts. The Marines tried not to react to the images they were seeing [cock sucking, fucking, pussy eating, tit pulling, etc], and focus solely on finding the source of the problem and neutralizing it.
The Marines journeyed less than 10 minutes into the city when the first Marine stopped, the others [following his lead] stopped as well, wondering if he'd seen something? They were all looking around perplexed, when he suddenly started stripping off his uniform.
"What the hell's wrong with The Sarge...?" asked one of the Marines, as the sergeant ripped off his clothes and removed his helmet. "NO Sarge..., don't take off your mask...!" he pleaded. But it was too late as the 34 yr old married father of 2 turned towards his fellow Marines and [his 7" hard cock already stiff and ready for fucking] began to charge.
The Marines backed off in a panic, believing the toxins somehow penetrated his suit and drove the sergeant mad. But before they could get a safe distance, others began to strip, shedding their clothes and attacking each other with a different kind of weapon as hot mouths and tight Marine asses were penetrated and fucked with rock hard cocks.
The officials back at base watched the sexual carnage the Marines were doing to each other [cock sucking, ass eating, butt fucking and coming repeatedly] by the mounted cameras still recording atop their fallen helmets, and decided NOT to send in anymore Armed Forces in, declaring the city `a lost cause'.
Pt-2<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
MANHATTAN
The trail of naked bodies literally lined the streets of New York like a bare blanket, as strangers [both old and young, of all nationalities] fucked freely without shame, concern, or blush. The effects traveled upward, affecting people hiding in their apartments and offices, hoping to ride out whatever terrorist toxins effects were causing people to go on spontaneous fuck sprees. Unfortunately the effects wasn't a toxin, but psychic in nature as people hiding in their homes quickly found themselves impulsively attacking and fucking other family members, unable to stop themselves as mothers, daughters, fathers and sons, all engaged in family orgies.
Police officers and criminals fucked each other in Precincts everywhere, fucking in holding cells, atop desks, in patrol cars. Doctors and hospital personnel fucked each like teenagers, climbing into patients beds and raping them rather they were aware of comatose. Even in City Hall, the mayor found himself sexually sprawled over his desk, eating his secretary's cunt while getting his own fat politician ass rammed by one of his aides.
No one was safe from the affects plaguing across the city.
At the epicenter of it all was The White Queen, possessed by the psychic entity of Abigail Grey, The Phoenix [the unborn twin of Jean Grey]. Abigail's physical body was never born, but was absorbed into her twin sister's embryo, causing Jean Grey to suffer with duel personalities, as well as giving her the unusual gift of 2 different and distinct mutant abilities [psychic, and telekinesis]. Abigail's persona was suppressed in Jean's subconscious by Professor Xavier, when he came across Jean at age 8 in an asylum. However, Abigail was set free and pulled into Emma Frost's [The White Queen's] body after Emma tried to steal Abigail's persona and powerful psychic abilities away from Jean, mistakenly believing SHE was strong enough to mentally keep The Phoenix persona in check.
Now Emma Frost was a prisoner of her own body, stuck inside, helplessly watching as Phoenix [with the combined powers of her own, Emma Frost, AND Jean Grey's telekinesis] took liberties Emma never would have approved of.
Abigail sat on the highest floor of The Empire State Building, presiding over the mass of naked body mental slaves she now possessed body and mind. Between her legs were one of her minion, a man she'd never met before [a father of 4 who worked in the building], eating her vagina as if it were his last meal. All around were the thriving naked bodies of other workers, all made insane with lust as they bent each other over desks, fucked on floors, chairs, stairwells, elevators, restrooms, hallways, anywhere they were at the time the mood struck, was where they stripped and started fucking.
Abigail could feel herself in the beginnings of another climax, as the man licked and chewed divinely on her clitoris, causing her body to erupt in erotic spasms. Grabbing a fistful of the man's hair, she began to ground her mound against his face, soaking his mug with her spewing juices and causing everyone in her possession to orgasm at the same time. The collective sigh of erotic ecstasy could be heard echoing throughout Manhattan and crossing the boarders of Brooklyn, Queens, and The Bronx. Abigail slumped back on her throne as the man between her legs was cast away into the mass of naked bodies, engaging himself with someone else as another new face [a female this time] appeared between Emma's legs.
Phoenix was in the midst of starting another long oral session when something unexpectedly hit the building, barreling through the north side wall, tearing through glass, steel, and concrete, --sending a cascade of debris down on the backs of unsuspecting bodies. Phoenix automatically locked onto the brain pattern of the bombshell ripping through the building [which burst through the other side like a rocket], and discerned it to be Cannonball. Phoenix immediately seized his brain before he could reach a safe distance, and caused him to lose control of his flight plan and crash into a nearby building top only a few blocks away.
"So...the WAR has begun...!" said Phoenix, tossing her toys aside as she stood up and headed towards the windows.
Outside Phoenix could see the darkness of clouds rolling in, blanketing the city as a nasty thunderstorm began to brew. She knew instantly who was behind the weather change as lightning started to crackle and a torrential rain suddenly insured.
People in the streets felt the cool cold pellets of rain pummeling their backs and naked bodies like icicles as the temperature suddenly dropped drastically, causing many New Yorkers to run in a disoriented panic to the nearest shelter.
Phoenix could feel several hundred thousand minds slipping from her grasp [all at once] as people began to came to their senses, finding themselves naked in public as they ran from the cold and rain.
The skies opened up everywhere with lightning flashes as a highly concentrated bolt struck the top of the Empire State Building, causing massive blackouts on all floors, and blowing out all the windows as shards of paned glass rained down onto the empty streets below.
Standing near one of the blown out windows, Phoenix tried to zero in on Storm's mind [knowing SHE was behind this latest attack], but realized she wasn't within the infected area. Knowing she needed to meet the challenge head-on, Phoenix prepared to leave the building, when she was suddenly surprised by a visitor...
"Surprise Emma...!" said Xavier/Mountjoy, suddenly appearing under the blaze of fire and smoke. But before Phoenix could turn around, Xavier kicked her in the back, causing her to plummet 102 stories to certain death. Phoenix descended quickly, falling to the ground like a block of cement, hitting the ground with the impact of a small meteorite.
"Is it DONE, Professor...?" asked Rogue, [BANFing] in beside Xavier as they looked out of the window of the tallest building in the world.
"No Rogue..." said Xavier, unable to SEE Phoenix, but still sensing her presence. "...she managed to shift into Emma's DIAMOND form before impact..., I'm afraid she wouldn't be defeated THAT easily...!"
"Damn!" said Rogue, just before she and Xavier both disappeared [using Nightcrawler and Azazel's teleporting abilities].
102 stories below, Phoenix rose from the ashes in a sparkling new diamond form, telekinetically hovering over the spot of her impact.
{{{{NICE TRY, PROFESSOR..., BUT I AM MORE POWERFUL THAN ANY OF YOUR PITIFUL X-MEN! NONE OF YOU HAVE THE POWER TO HURT ME, NOW THAT I POSSESS THE POWER OF A GODDESS!!}}}} bragged Phoenix, mentally.
"Goddess...??" questioned Storm, far away from the city. "I've learned the hard way that NO MAN currently walking the planet, is a GOD...!" stated the African wind rider, who was always considered a goddess by her people.
The skies blazed white hot with electricity as another potent power bolt of lightning streaked from the heavens like the Wrath Of Zeus, hitting Phoenix dead on!
The light show emitting from Phoenix's diamond body was a brilliant display of beautiful colors as energy erupted all about her body in a blaze of white heat and power, but Phoenix was unaffected, as diamonds were a great conductor of electricity.
However, Phoenix's attention was distracted just long enough for Xavier to appear only a few yards away, before striking her with Cyclops's red beam optic blast, which sent Phoenix's body hurling through the street of New York and barreling face first into the side of a business van parked on the street. The impact was so powerful that Phoenix went right though the van's side, leaving a large gaping hole where one shouldn't be.
Another blast of the gas tank caused the van to explode, sending a large fireball through the air as the rain continued to fall like in Biblical times.
"THAT oughta have done it!" said Rogue, BAMFing in beside Xavier again.
"NOT with Emma's diamond abilities and Jean's telekinesis...!" doubted Xavier, still sensing Phoenix's mind. "We HAVE to keep moving, Rogue..., we can't let Phoenix lock in on our minds...!" advised the Professor, just as Phoenix exploded a burst of telekinetic energy from within the flames of the van, causing a massive wave of destruction as a wall of telekinetic energy destroyed everything in its path. "Quickly Rogue..." yelled Xavier, seeing the wave move upon them like a tsunami. "...TELEPORT!"
The 2 X-Men managed to vanish just in time [teleporting to New Jersey out of harm's way] as the street, and everything on it [cars, buildings, telephone poles, street laps, etc]..., all were reduced to rubble as if hit by a massive earthquake.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
NEW JERSEY
Xavier and Rogue managed to teleport all the way to the garden state. Both falling to the ground [on their hands and knees] as soon as they materialized...
"What happened...?" asked Spirit, as she and the rest of the 2 teams [X-Men and The London Based Hell's Fire Club] ran to their sides.
"Phoenix..." said Xavier, climbing to his feet. "...is MORE powerful than any of us ever visualized!"
"What's THAT supposed to mean...?" asked The Red Knight [Captain Brittan], "We're supposed to just give up and give in...?!"
"No! That's not how WE work!" said Rogue, defiant.
"It just means we have a tougher fight than we thought...!" said Xavier, walking back towards the Blackbird and The X-Men's current base of operations.
As soon as Xavier was within range, Mora MacTaggert [The X-Men's in home physician] began reading his vital signs...
"Mora, not now..." said Xavier, pusher her [and her gadgets] aside. "...I'm fine...!"
"Charles..." argued Mora, persistent. "...you're carrying too many people inside at one time..., you don't know how much stress this could be putting on Mountjoy's body..., NOR how long you can go before making the process permanent...!"
"I have a very CLEAR understanding of my new abilities, DOCTOR MACTAGGERT..." said Xavier, sternly. "...as I am well aware that you're main concern isn't whether or not Professor Xavier can control Mountjoy's powers..., so much as you're concerned whether or not MOUNTJOY is still residing IN me, pretending to be the Professor only to attack when least expected! And I assure you..., as I assure everyone within the sound of my voice..." he added, addressing everyone present. "...that I'll do whatever is necessary to stop The Phoenix from raping the city! And that includes assimilating each and every ONE of you if I have to!"
Xavier couldn't help but sense the horror his choice of words caused everyone listening [as everyone quietly walked away in small huddles].
"It's a dangerous game you're playing, Professor..." advised Beast, one of the few who stuck around to talk. "...Mountjoy by all accounts, is a mutant vampire who feeds off the souls of others..., you could be putting our people at risk...!"
"The bigger risk would be allowing Phoenix to go on unchecked..." said Xavier, standing by his decision to use the full extent of Mountjoy's powers, despite not knowing exactly how the outcome would leave him and the rest of the team. "...if she's allowed to let her influence engulf the world..., the entire planet as we know it could be enslaved under her erotic mind control!"
"There's worse ways to die, no...?" asked Gambit, hunching his shoulders as if he didn't see a down side.
"You're such a pig!" responded Rogue, rolling her eyes before walking away...
"What Cherie...? What did I say...?" asked Gambit, going after her.
"BOLD words, Chuck...?" asked Wolverine, standing nearby. "Especially since YUR the only one assimilated who would'n be affected...!"
"Not NOW, Logan..." said Xavier, having a lot on his mind.
Wolverine didn't back down...
"I understand there's a lotta stress bein' a telepath who can hear the cries of an entire city screamin' out atcha at once..." said the manimal, sympathetically. "...but I'm only concerned with ONE person rite now..., an' YUV got em locked away INSIDE you like a prisoner at the moment...!" he added. Xavier could feel the tension building in Logan's body. "I wanna kno' that he's alright..., an' I wanna SEE em rite now..., even if I hafta claw yur body in half to do it...!"
Xavier smiled...
"No need to be so graphic, Logan..." he said, allowing Scott Summers' face to appear instead of his. "...here's the boy, right here!"
Wolverine felt his heart flutter...
"Scott..." he said, looking into the boy's handsome face. "...are you okay in there...?" he asked, fighting the urge to take the boy in his arms and ravish his face with rough kisses.
"I'm fine, Logan..." said Scott's face, still possessing Mountjoy's body. "...I'm well aware what's going on in here...! I'm still mentally conscious...! I see and hear everything! The Professor has it all under control!"
"Okay Sport..." smiled Logan, unsure if it was truly Scott talking, or Xavier/Mountjoy pretending to be him?
"Satisfied...?" asked Xavier, bringing Mountjoy's face back.
"Not really, Chuck...!" said Wolverine, defiantly. "When you go back out there..., I wanna be a part of it too...! I want you to assimilate ME also!"
"Logan..., are you SURE about that...?" asked Beast, concerned they could be losing one of their most powerful members if anything went wrong.
"Positive, Hank!" said Logan, without batting an eye.
Xavier smirked, knowing Wolverine only wanted to keep an eye on Cyclops' safety.
"No problem." agreed the professor, figuring he could always use Wolverine's abilities.
The X-Men gathered in front of the Blackbird [the X-Men's private jet]. "Okay..." said Xavier, getting everyone's attention. "...we need to revise our plan before going back IN there! I have Ororo pummeling the city with thunderstorms and temperature drops..., at least if nothing else, it'll help clear the streets and help keep people out of harm's way! But we're going to need all the firepower we can get! Wolverine's offered to assimilate with me, adding his strength and abilities to mine, Cyclops, and Azazel's...! Anyone else who'd like to volunteer can also..., I won't force anyone to submit, yet...!"
"YET, Professor...?" asked Jean Grey, stepping outside the Blackbird.
"I'm not going to lie..." said Xavier. "...we might not win this fight..., indeed we may have casualties along the way..., but it would be far worse to know we HAD a chance to do something to stop Phoenix from dominating the world, and blew it because we were frightened...! I've spent the last 9 years keeping Abigail locked away in a mental prison..., and I'll do anything necessary to stop her!"
"Guess I'd better freshen up if we're going back out there..." said Rogue, walking over to the teammates she's already borrowed' powers from, as they lay out on the ground unconscious [an after effect of that happens whenever Rogue touches someone and steals' their powers and memories].
Dr MacTaggert and Jean resided over the unconscious X-Men Rogue touched [Polaris and Nightcrawler]. Rogue removed her black gloves, then bent down and gently touched her index finger upon their foreheads, stealing some MORE of their powers.
"Rogue..." said Spirit, walking up behind her as Rogue re-energized. "...I'd like to volunteer MY powers as well..." she offered, "...if there's ANYWAY you think they could benefit you..., I'd like to offer them...!"
"So would I...!" offered Banshee, unable to risk going in alone.
"Hey...ME too!" offered Sunspot, "I'm sick of just sitting around waiting for the coast to be cleared!"
"Are you all sure...?" asked Rogue, "Your thoughts and memories might be exposed to me..." she warned...
"So long as you can keep a secret..." smiled Spirit nervously, lying down next to Polaris.
Rogue bent near her head, then touched her finger gently to her forehead, sapping Spirit of her `psychic nightmare' abilities, as well as Banshee's sonic scream.
"Well...?" said Rogue, turning towards Sunspot [whom hadn't yet laid down to submit].
"uh..." said the 16 yr old sexually active teen... "...I have A LOT of secrets..." he said, unsure how Rogue would react to seeing them all.
"I'm not looking to learn your deepest darkest secrets, Roberto..." she reassured, taking some of the fear from his mind. "...I just need the extra power in case I find myself in hot water I can't get out of...!"
"Okay then..." said Sunspot, lying next to Spirit and Banshee. "...let's DO it!"
In the confusion, no one noticed the Hell's Fire Club huddled in their own group, whispering plans of their own to help stop Phoenix if the X-Men failed...
Pt-3<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
MANHATTAN
The rainfall was one of the worse in recorded history. News reports worldwide caught the unnatural thunderstorms hovering over New York City, unmoving. Many scholars speculated it at an apocalypse, the coming catastrophe marking the end of the world.
But Phoenix knew better as she hovered high above the city, using Jean Grey's telekinesis abilities to levitate miles over Manhattan as he mind-scanned the skies for any thought patterns. Closing her eyes, she expanded her range to cross The Hudson and over to New Jersey..., alerting Xavier as he picked up on her brain activity...
"We must move NOW...!" said Xavier, alerting everyone. "Storm's in trouble!"
Everyone ran to their positions as Xavier and Rogue disappeared in two puffs of fire and brimstone.
Having zeroed in on Storm brain pattern, Phoenix hit her with a psychic bolt of her own medicine, causing storm to lose complete control of her powers as hurricane winds, tornadoes, and hail stones the size of Volkswagens fell from the skies, destroying everything in their paths.
Everything outside New York [in the northern New Jersey territory] faced destruction by the wild weather, as the armed forces, police & rescue, the media, and all the innocent bystanders looking across the bridge lay in danger of being harmed by whirling debris.
As they sought shelter inside their cars and homes, miles above the state, Storm was being electrocuted by her own lightning as she lay screaming at the top of her lungs, amid the roar of thunder and hail of tornado winds.
"Storm!" yelled Rogue, teleporting out of nowhere. Her eyes widened with fear for one of her favorite teachers as Storm's body burnt white from multiple lightning strikes. "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE...!!!" screamed Rogue, hitting Storm with one of Banshee's sonic screams. The impact knocked Ororo out of the lightning field, and sent her soaring out of control towards the ground. Luckily Northstar was there to catch her [long before she was in any danger of hitting the ground], swooping in to pick her unconscious body out of freefall as he quickly took her back to the X-Men's base of operations.
"Easy..." said Beast, as he and Dr MacTaggert waited to carry her aboard the Blackbird to use its automated onboard DOC to assist.
"How is she...?" asked Forge, still harboring feelings after all these years.
"Her hair...!" cried MacTaggert, seeing how badly singed her long beautiful white hair was.
"We can cry over her cosmetic looks later, Dr MacTaggert..., right now we need to treat her burns...!" yelled Beast, placing her in a med-chair.
"Right...of course, Hank..." agreed Mora, taken aback by Storm's appearance. "...let's get her hooked up to the DOC...!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
MEANWHILE over Manhattan, Xavier appeared for another optic attack. But this time Phoenix was ready for him as she seized Xavier's mind, freezing his thoughts and abilities with just a thought. Xavier levitated in Phoenix's telekinetic bubble, completely at her mercy as she toyed with the idea of what to DO with him...?
"What's THIS I see...?" she asked, reading more than one thought pattern. "You've bought friends to help as backup...!" she determined, bringing forth each man's most appealing nature as she physically tore away Xavier's clothes, and forced arousal so he'd have an erection.
But as Xavier/Mountjoy's 8" erection sprung hard, so did Cyclops' 7, and Wolverine's thick 7.5, and Azazel's long 10. All four erection sprung hard from Xavier's chest and stomach, springing up out of his torso like extra limbs...
"Beautiful..." smiled Phoenix, floating closer as she grasped 2 erections with her hands, then opened her mouth and swallowed a third into her throat. (((("...does that not feel GOOD, gentlemen...?")))) she asked mentally, linking with the four distinctive brain patterns simultaneously. (((("Does not my mouth, hands, and vagina feel good against your manhoods...?")))) she inquired, sliding down onto Xavier's erection.
"uhh..." moaned Xavier, a prisoner of his own mind as his cock was physically raped by one of his sworn enemies.
Phoenix pulled her mouth off one cock, then plunged it on another..., moving her head back and forth.
(((("I could make your every desire come true...")))) he said, telepathically. (((("...every girl, every boy that you ever wished you could have, I could give you...! I could make the rest of your existence as erotic and blissful as this moment right here...! You would never WANT for anything! Never NEED for anything! Everything you could ever want, would be at your fingertips!")))).
At that very moment, Scott Summers' [Cyclops] 7" cock erupted down Phoenix's throat, sending a cascade of warm teenage mutant cum straight into her belly. Phoenix forced Azazel to teleport them down to the nearest building top, where she rode Xavier's cock until he exploded in her vagina. (((("Alright, SWITCH!")))) ordered Phoenix, as all four cocks shifted positions with Azazel's now at Xavier's crotch, rising up 10 inches into her vagina while Wolverine's extremely fat wide uncut cock appeared in Xavier's chest, where she was able to cover it completely with her mouth and throat [Xavier and Cyclops' cock limped softly in Mountjoy's lower chest and stomach, drooling the remnants of their orgasms].
Phoenix rode Azazel's long hard dick, while sucking Wolverine's shorter, fatter dick, taking both penises deep into her orifices as she teeter-tottered back and forth.
Rogue teleported behind Phoenix, grabbing two heaping fistfuls of blonde hair, before physically yanked her off Mountjoy's body, using Sunspot's strength [ripping the erections from her cunt and mouth], and threw her physically off the side of the building. "Honey chile..., some gals just won't take NO as an answer...!" said Rogue, hitting Phoenix with a sonic scream loud enough to scramble her senses as Phoenix slammed through the building across the street.
"Thanks, Anna...!" said Xavier, getting up from the ground as the penises sank back into his body out of sight.
"ROGUE!" said Rogue, not liking her real name.
"Honestly..." said Professor-X, "...with all this SHIT we're currently going through, you STILL find the time to gripe about being called Anna...?!"
"Okay..." said Xavier, agreeing for now. "...whatever...! Let's go!" he said, before disappearing.
Phoenix was already recovering when Xavier and Rogue reappeared in the next building. Phoenix ordered her minions to aid her as they took a break from fucking to grab at Xavier and Rogue.
"She's getting weaker...!" assessed Xavier, realizing it was taking Phoenix longer to recuperate. "I believe Banshee's sonic screams somehow scrambles their minds, keeping her from accessing her diamond form! Hit her again!" he insisted.
Rogue opened her mouth, sending out a loud "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" scream than cleared the whole floor, and sent Phoenix soaring through the back wall. ((("Alright X-Men, we've found a weakness...! Move in to strike!"))) ordered Xavier, teleporting to the street.
Phoenix freefell 50 stories to towards the ground, breaking her fall telekinetically when she suddenly stopped falling only 8' from the ground. Xavier hit her with another optic blast, which Phoenix was able to stop with a telekinetic force shield. Sensing a mind attack, Xavier disappeared, using Azazel's teleportation abilities while Rogue took his place, teleporting to street level, sending a 2 ton signage down on her head as she caused to topple over using Polaris' magnetic powered.
The signage toppled from the roof, gaining speed and momentum in its fall. Phoenix caught sight of it falling on her at the last second as she reached up and stopped it telekinetically with her hands overhead...
"Not so fast, bitch!" Rogue, drawing the thing that scared Phoenix the most from her heart.
For Abigail it was being trapped without a body to live through, while for Emma Frost it was being stuck in diamond form forever, unable to physically be with another human being again sexually...
In Phoenix's confusion, teleported over and physically punched her in the back of the head, nearly taking her head off with Sunspot's strength. Before Phoenix could recover, The Red Queen [The Sorceress] transported under her own spell, and sliced Phoenix across the back with her long talon nails [the cumulating of The Red Queen's Sorceress powers], drawing blood.
"I have her blood...!" said The Red Queen, casting a witching spell over the blood.
"And WE'RE got the rest...!" said The Blue King and Queen, having jumped from a passing Blackbird with their weapons of choice drawn.
Phoenix caught the couple telekinetically in midair, then sent them flying into The Red Queen, rendering them unconscious. Captain Brittan flew in like a superman, hitting Phoenix with all the strength his muscled body could muster. Phoenix [having barely transformed into diamond form at the last second] felt the impact of his blow, then mentally seized his brain as she turned him against the incoming Blackbird transporting the rest of The X-Men.
Captain Brittan [The Red Knight] took off towards the sky to intercept the Blackbird and bring it down. Beast and Forge would have to do some heavy piloting to avoid him damaging a wing.
Rogue teleported in, hitting Phoenix with another sonic scream, and disrupting Phoenix's diamond form. With her body once again flesh and blood, Rogue sucker punched her across the jaw, losing most of her impact on a protective telekinetic shield surrounding Phoenix's body.
Phoenix used her telekinesis to lock onto Rogue's heart, crushing it in her chest cavity. Rogue fell to the ground suffering severe heart complications mimicking a heart attack.
Xavier teleported between them, physically grabbing Phoenix and teleporting her elsewhere [so the remaining X-Men could get to Rogue]. They reappeared somewhere in the underground transit system [where running water drained in from the flooding streets above during the torrential thunderstorms]. Xavier held Phoenix by the wrists [struggling], as Cyclops shot her with an extremely close optic beam. The damage to Emma Frost's face was extensive [taking such force at close range], but Phoenix continued to fight as she mentally blocked Cyclops' access to his powers.
Unfortunately she forgot about Wolverine, who emerged from Xavier/Mountjoy's chest [his deadly adamantium claws already extended] like a ghost, only to shove his 12" claws into her chest, ripping her breasts to shreds.
(((("AARRRRRRHHHHHHHHHHH...!!!")))) screamed Phoenix physically AND mentally, causing brain aches to erupt and rupture all over New York and Manhattan.
Xavier and Wolverine were in severe pain from the screaming in their brains, when Wolverine ripped the still beating heart from Phoenix's chest. Abigail tried to seize Xavier's mind at the last moment, trying to transfer her self-conscious into his existence, but Xavier teleported away before she could establish a mind-link, leaving her trapped inside a dying body...
Wolverine stood over Emma Frost's butchered remains as she took her last breaths, before falling still with her eyes wide open...
Wolverine noticed moment in the deep dark shadows of the subway, then noticed naked [frightened] people beginning to step out into the light, unsure where [or even WHO] they were?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The military moved in, invading the city and declaring an end to Marshall Law...
Over time the news gave conflicting reports explaining the `incident' that happened in New York as everything from mass hysteria from one of Spiderman's archenemies [Mysterio perhaps], to a terrorist agent which was released on the city, its highly toxic gas effects giving off mass hallucinations. Others claimed biblical possessions and the start of Armageddon, which they say explained the severe weather that bombarded New York and New Jersey with tornado winds and giant hail. Those theories were dismissed when those predicting could not explain WHY only New York and New Jersey was affected, and not other [considered more religious] places like Israel or Iran, which held far greater standing in biblical prophesies?
Others thanks superheroes groups like: The Avengers and The Fantastic Four for saving the city, as some people claimed to have witnessed a super powered battle of sorts forming between unknown super powers.
In the end, no one would be able to explain the phenomenon fully, leaving many to believe the even never really occurred.
Pt-4<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
XAVIER'S MANSION
The X-Man graciously took a backseat to all the hoopla, happy only that they were able to neutralized the worldwide threat without causing further fatalities. As it stood, Storm and Rogue were the worst hit from the battle, with Storm suffered severe burns over a great portion of her body, while Rogue lay in intensive care with a severely damaged heart.
Condolences went out to The Hell's Fire Club for the lost of Emma Frost, The White Queen. The Hell's Fire Club sent aids to collect Emma's body from the X-Men without so much as a `thank you' or an apology for having started it all.
In the end everything went back to normal, with the city facing millions in damages to Manhattan with no real party to blame it on...
