Chapter 21

"So... do we knock?" I asked with a raised eyebrow as we finally reached the destination I got from the failure ninja. An old and abandoned factory, cause where else would a villainous organization make their hideout, and the cell of Facility was supposed to be underneath it.

"No." Logan said as his claws popped out with a snikt and plunged them into the trapdoor, ripping it off of the ground and then he jumped down.

"He does know that we could have made a plan right?" I asked as I turned towards Laura, only to see nothing as she too had jumped down the hole. "Really?"

"I think it's rather cute how they are bonding." Ororo said with an awkward smile as she used wind to levitate herself and then flew down, so I followed after he with telekinesis based flight.

"I just thought that we could have done something other than just charging blindly in." I said as I looked at the running forms of Logan and Laura.

"Was that not how you ended up finding this place though?"

"And variety is the greatest spice one can put into the meal we call life." I said back as we flew after the two bloodthirsty mutants.

"I guess they don't really feel it's need due to their healing factors." Ororo said and she flew a little closer to me. "Speaking of which, I normally would not ask this but I would… appreciate it if you would watch my back when the fight begins."

"I thought that was a given." I said with a raised eyebrow to which she shook her head.

"I can not bring out my full power while in an enclosed space like this, and I can neither heal from bullet wounds like our friends or ignore them like you."

"So you need a big and strong shield of meat."

"If that is how you wish to phrase it." The weather controlling mutant said with a shrug as finally reached a door, and by door I mean a heavily reinforced metal circle with a ten feet diameter; give or take a few inches.

"Alright kid, if you would?" Logan said as he gestured towards the door making me roll my eyes as I raised my hand and enlarged it to the point my fist was bigger than the circular door.

"Insert badass catchphrase here!" I yelled as I punched forward and the door disappeared, but there was a circular shape very similar to the disappeared door embedded into a wall in my sight; though my attention was focused on something else in my sight.

That is the mad scientist and leather wearing soldier slash spy slash ninjas looking at us though… these people were dressed a bit more in green than I had been expecting.

"Intruders! All men to arms! Hail Hydra!" Oh… so that's why.

—————————

Laura had expected many things to happen when she finally found a Facility cell. Likely becoming full of rage and going on a rampage of vengeance and claws on their assess and getting lots of blood on her clothes. She even had somewhat expected, but hoped not to, die in her quest against them; but what was happening now, definitely out of her expectations.

Firstly, she actually had her own allies with her. Damian, her first friend, and her genetic template Logan and the weather manipulating teacher from baldy's school whose name Laura did not remember. Secondly, she did not found just a Facility cell. No, it was also a Hydra cell cause why not?! She hadn't even known that Facility had ties to the Nazi based organization but she was not exactly surprised by one evil organization being connected to another.

Which merely meant that she needed to cut her way through more evil men, she was okay with that. And she made it clear by slashing at the knees of another man before sweeping her leg and stabbing another man's shoulder. Ignoring his screams as she used her new foothold as support in order to jump up and fall towards more enemies, entirely uncaring of the wounds their weapons left on her; they healed within the blink of an eye anyway.

No, what mattered at the moment was not her injuries but how efficiently she could deal with more Facility goons; preferably by slashing their throats with the blade on her foot.

"Well well well…" Her thoughts were cut short as a very familiar, and very unwelcome, voice reached her ears.

"I have to admit X, I had thought that I would have to track you down and put your leash back on myself. Yet you actually came to me, could it be my birthday today?" Kimura, Laura's handler in Facility, said with a smirk that made her clench her fists tight enough that she could feel blood drip down.

Out of everyone in Facility, Laura hated Kimura more than anyone with the possible exception of its leaders. Kimura was the one that assigned missions to Laura, that trained Laura and that abused Laura. The bitch had taken any kind of chance she could get in order to belittle Laura throughout her career in Facility, whether she succeeded in her missions or not.

Worst of all, Laura knew that she couldn't kill Kimura. The woman had superhuman durability, her skin could not be pierced even by Laura's adamantium claws. She was, for all intents and purposes, invulnerable.

"Now then, be a good little bitch and allow me to put a collar on you. Then you can come back and do missions for us like the proper weapon you are." She said as she got closer to Laura but before she could fully reach her…

"That's rather rude." A hand clamped down on her shoulder and threw her away. "Have your parents never taught you about not using such bad words?"

"You fucking bastard." Kimura gritted out as she got up and glared at Damian. "You think a little super strength is enough to save you?" She snorted before pulling out a knife from her back.

"I am completely invulnerable! It's only a matter of time before I gut you!" She screamed out as she ran towards them, only to be captured by a wave of flesh from Damian's arm.

"Cool." Her friend said with a roll of his eyes before whipping his arm, and the mass of flesh connected to it. "Go be invulnerable somewhere else!" And Kimura ended up getting stuck halfway through a wall.
