Chapter 12 : Absorbing

The wolverine POV :

Run!!

My instincts screamed at me the moment we stepped foot in this place, the same instinct that would drive me to fight enemies several leagues ahead of me. Now you're telling me the same instincts demanding .... No. Attempting to take over my body in order to make me Run?! How strong is this fucker?!!!

---flash back started ---

[Boom] [Baam] [Boom] [Baam]

Logan: " Someone is fighting "

Rouge:" how is that possible ? is there an Omega level mutant nearby?"

---flash back ended---

Then it dawned on me

Shit! This is the guy behind all this ruckus. This is BAD! we must NEVER provoke this monster. If he becomes aggressive... all I would be able to do is just stall for backup ,i have to tell the guys not to do anything stupid....

"Bull Shit!!" Kurts Yelled

Son of Bitch!!

i tried to turn around and shut Kurts up but i was too late

"Are you saying I teleported myself halfway to death just to find some random mutant?" We can't make headlines with this. The professor won't allow it. I swear, this whole thing is a waste of time. We could have just gone back to drinking after we saved the day, but nooo, I had to carry all of you guys here just to find this Big dumb Monkey."

Is this jackass trying to kill us? I swear to God, if we end up fighting this guy because of you, I will skin you with my own two claws. You stupid fucking elf.

There was a moment of silence before the temperature began to drop and the fucker eyes began to shine; he then responded in a cold tone.

"Yep, I'm smashing your head into the ground, Kid."

:Pop:

"Get down!!" I tried to turn around and warn Kurt, but by then, that unknown mutant had already grabbed him and smashed his head into the ground.

"KURT!!" all of us yelled

"Get away from him you Monster"

Scott yelled as he shot an eye beam at the mutant's wide-open back, but before the beam could hit the mutant, his tail moved and slapped the beam into oblivion . Scott froze in shock, and during that time, the mutant grabbed Kurt by the neck and looked at him coldly.

" I guess that's all you amounted for "

"Not good!!" I yelled as I dashed toward the mutant in order to rescue Kurt. But before i could get any closer to him i heard him say "Catch" while throwing Kurt at me .

Kurt and I collided, launching us both backward and into a wall. The mutant then turned to Scott and said, "Nice shades, let me borrow them for a second," before disappearing and reappearing, this time wearing Scoot Visor.

[A/N the Visor are the glasses Scott wear to see safely]

" Damn how can anyone see anything in this?" said the Mutant

Scott yelled at him, "Give it back!!" while covering both his eyes with his hand.

:pew: :pew: :pew: :pew:

"You know, on second thought, these glasses are Great," the mutant said as he began firing eye beams right and left toward the sky.

:pew: :pew: :pew: :pew:

" i said "

"GIVE. IT. BACK" Scott shot a full-power eye beam at the mutant while yelling in anger. In response, the mutant removed Scoot Visor and declared "We having a staring contest now are we? "then firing an a eye beam of his own .

:Booom:

Both beams Clashed, a red beam fired from Scott and a golden beam from the mutant. At first, both beams were at a standstill, but after few moments the red beam gradually began to be pushed back.

" Argh" Scott grunted as he kneeled on one leg, he was reaching his limit, but even so . He kept firing . He clenched his fist , stood back up, ignored the pain and pushed back even harder .

The mutant beam was being pushed back slightly with each passing second, but then a thunderous laugh echoed throughout the entire place.

"HAHAHAHA YES!! THAT'S IT, THAT'S THE SPIRIT!!" the mutant moved both arm to his side and stook a fighting stance

" HAAAAAAAAAAA"

Scott was blown away by waves of heat and wind that seemed to come out of nowhere. The Mutant is still standing exactly where he was before. But this time, he was surrounded by a bright aura. But that wasn't all.

The mutant fired another beam at the already battered and injured Scott. This time, The beam was twice as strong and twice as fast. Scott tried to stall by shooting another beam. But that didn't work because the second his beam clashed with the mutant's, it got overpowered in an instant as if seeing a car trying to stop a spaceship.

When I saw the beam heading straight for Scott with hardly any resistance, I lowered Kurt to the ground and began sprinting at full speed, wanting to arrive in time to save Scott. But it was to late the beam is already an inch away from Scott head.

"SCOTT, NO!!" both me and Rouge screamed

"I'm sorry, Jean, but I guess I'm not coming back from this one," Scott said, weakly smiling and coughing blood while the beam going straight for his skull.

But . Before the beam could obliterate Scott, it changed course at the last second and shot straight up into the sky, hell it might even reached outer space as well .

The mutant then approached Scott, squatted in front of him, and said something I couldn't hear before garbing Scott's head, making me sprint even faster.

---The conversation between scott and noah---

"Hey kid, that was a good fight for someone your level," Noah said while smiling widely

"W-what :Cough: the hell you :Cough: talking about? "Scott replied confusion writing all over his face.

"I'm talking about our fight kid, you have guts, keep going like you're doing now, and you'll be one hell of a superhero one day." Noah said while putting his palm on the top of scott head

"I'll fix your body for you, kid, so go to sleep." Noah then injected his ki into Scott, and a warm sensation washed over him. It felt like he being wrapped in a cloudy blanket, he felt sleep assault him everywhere , and before he passed out he had one last thought on his mind.

" Who the fuck is this crazy bastard " then he lost conscious .

--- End of Scott and Noah conversation ---

The wolverine POV :

When I saw Scott fall, I became enraged and charged behind the mutant, slashing at his neck with my right claw. He then responded by slightly tilting his head to the left and catching my claw between two of his fingers. I tried to pull back my claw, but it was as if they were stuck under a mountain. He then proceeded to spin around and sending me flying back where I came from .

I then crawled into a ball while rolling in the air, stopping when I reached the wall behind me, putting both feet on the wall, and bouncing back at him, this time with both claws stabbing at different parts of his body.

But then he vanished and reappeared in front of me, and before I could react, he grabbed my head with both hands and kneed me in the face, sending me flying again, but before I could land anywhere, he appeared on top of me while I was mid air, and struck me in the chest with both hands, sending me this time down and smashing a hole in the ground.

:Baam:

:Baam:

:Baam:

:Baam:

:Baam:

:Baam:

:Baam:

I broke down trough seven floors before landing on wide white marble floor, so here I'm staring at the broken ceiling rubble falling and my entire body screaming in pain. After a brief moment, my healing factor kicked in and began repairing my torn muscles and anything else that was damaged drunning the crash. It took one minute before I could move again. Then i hurriedly climbed to the top and jumped out of the hole into the air. I then locked eyes with Rouge and nodded, and she nodded back.

As soon as I landed in front of the mutant, I slashed at his chest. However, he didn't even bother to defend or launch a counterattack; instead, he simply raised his index finger and blocked my blow. I became enraged. I was enraged because, for the first time since we arrived here, for i realised something for the first time since we showed up here . This fucker never once took any of us seriously this whole time . How he fought Scott. How he fighting me right now. He was just toying with us this whole time .

I slashed again and again but every time he just uses his index to block my attack over and over. I slashed again, but this time before he could block my attack, I retracted my claws and grabbed him with everything I had while yelling "NOW ROUGE!!"

Rouge appeared behind the mutant, gloveless, and placed her hand on his back. I held my breath as I stared at this monster, praying to whatever god up there for this to work, and after a few seconds, his eyelids closed and his head slumped slightly.

I sighed in relief, letting go of him, and walking over to Rouge while saying, "Nicely done, if this had gone any longer, I don't know if any of us could have walked out of here alive."

"Yeah, it's a shame, he was a mutant like us, I just wish Kurts hadn't picked a fight with him, maybe we'd be welcoming a new member to the X-men by now" Rouge replied a hit of sadness apparent in her voice .

" Don't even bring up that fucking elf's name right now; his stupid mouth is what started this whole mess in the first place." i said with an angry tone .

"Enough of that for a moment. Tell me how you're feeling. What kind of power did you absorb from that mutant?" i asked Rouge .

" Actually i don't feel that much diff...."

:Crack: :Crack:

A cracking sound interrupted us . I turned around to see that damn monster cracking his neck with one hand placed behind his neck .

"So what's that about absorbing my power ? "

Said the monster with a wide grin on his face .
