Kapitel 206: Arc Seven. Chapter Two Hundred Six. Down For The Count
Rogue watched Gambit take those kids apart with a smile and a wave, an' I'll grab myself some more powers right after I finish her off. As she watched Carol she could feel the power humming over her and she licked her lips in anticipation.
Shaw had already been grabbing and feeding her the failed genetic samples, and sometimes she wondered who she actually was, the scared kid hiding in the garage from her father, or the muscle bound freak, smashing faces in the pits of some slum. It didn't matter, they all blended together and made her, a Lil Rogue and as Carol stood across from her,
"We doing this or what?" and Rogue just smiled and took off her gloves.
"It's on sugar," and as she crouched into readiness, Carol fired off some kind of energy blast that hit her straight in the chest. As she flew back she felt a rush of power as it soaked into her. Oh god yes, and she stood, "that it?" and walked back to where she was first stood, "Gonna have to hit harder than that hon,"
Carol growled and she lit up, focusing the blast and Rogue was once more blasted back, slamming into a tree and as she rose she held her side and limped back. "Still ain't good enough," come on you stupid bitch, more,
"Not good enough?" Carol let her powers die down. "You can barely stand. One punch and you'll fall over. This is finished Rogue, surrender and go sit next to Gambit." but the woman shook her head,
"It's over when I say it's over." and holding her side she limped towards Carol and she stood, frowning with her hands on her hips.
"I'm not fighting anymore, you've lost." and as Carol turned to walk back to the jet Rogue lay as and on her shoulder, letting her fingers brush her bare neck.
"It's over when I say it's over," and Carol felt her powers flow out of her, painfully and sharply, as Rogue's own power connected. She gasped and went down on one knee, trying to breathe as Rogue wrapped her fingers around her neck, "and it ain't over."
Rogue had never felt anything like this before. Even as Shaw fed her the discarded experiments, the unwanted but useful mutants and she had taken them into her she had never tasted anything so divine, yeah fuck the rule, I'm drainin' this bitch dry.
Carol gasped, and her skin paled and wrinkled as Rogue grinned and laughed, "Oh, so good, so goood," and she shook and shuddered in an almost organic rush of power. Carol feebly batted at her hand, trying to remove it as her hair dulled and began to fall out in clumps, she could only make a choking noise as her heart slowed and the last of her life force began to leave her.
In less than a heartbeat, Rogue found herself lifted from the ground and spun as she was thrown, Carol disappearing from her grasp.
"What the hell lady?" Pietro asked, taking Carol to the jet and then returning.
Rogue stood and laughed, tensing her new muscles, "oh this ain't all sugah. I'm gonna take all your powers." and she lifted herself off the ground, floating a few inches and then zooming off, leaving a sonic boom behind her.
Pietro panicked. When he slammed into her at high speed it was like hitting a wall and he knew that Colossus had been right. Speed wasn't good enough to stop her, and even with Cains and maybe Colossus's help, they couldn't match someone who could steal their powers.
Colossus and Cain's fight had lasted a few minutes. They hadn't even exchanged blows. Juggernaut simply grabbed the biggest rock he could find and once Colossus couldn't lift it, admitted defeat,
"And so, you marinade and then roast?" he asked and Cain nodded,
"Yeah, get more flavour in," but as the ground shook and the air exploded around them, he stood and looked over at where Rogue had been fighting, "I think talk times over, we fighting?" but Colossus shook his head,
"No, I am remembering more, and I do not wish to. I have a sister, or I think I do. I want to find her, to make sure she is safe." Colossus looked over at the cracked ground, "But Rogue, I think she is not finished, and she will fight."
"You gonna stop me?" and Colossus shook his head, looking sadly at the overly enthusiastic Rogue, flying and laughing as she tested out her new powers.
"Your friend was hurt, she goes too far. But please, Shaw, he did terrible things to us, maybe go easier on her." and Cain grunted. It would be up to Rogue how far she took this. If she stayed down he would back off, but orders from Selene were to make sure Shaw and his corruption didn't pose a danger to anyone else, and right now Rogue had left Carol crippled and was out for more blood. Cain had no problems ending her once and for all if he needed to.
"Go easy on me? Go easy? On me?" Rogue screamed and dived towards Colossus, grabbing him and lifting him into the air. As the man's muscles thinned and his hair went white she dropped him before he was completely dead, "You don't need to worry about that sugar, you just need to worry about yourself." and she sped towards Gambit, grabbing him and sucking the energy from his body as well.
She laughed maniacally as the abilities and their memories flowed into her, no matter two more were of little consequence to the multitude she held there already but the power-up was an intense orgasmic rush, and she wanted more.
Laughing as the drained Gambit was dropped she pointed at Cain and grinned as she sped towards him, flying and spinning as she flew towards him.
As she reached out a hand to grab him, Juggernaut tilted and slammed a fist into her gut, sending her flying upwards. Spitting on the ground he stretched, "he might be weak, but I'm the Juggernaut bitch, and it'll take more than fancy flying to take me down."
Cain missed these days, feeling bones break and lives end, and he knew the Juggernaut was needed for this fight and a simple chef was out of his league.
"Come on then. I ain't waiting around all day while you spout that stupid shit," and as she floated back down.
"You hit hard, but I ain't playing anymore," and she ripped the sleeves from her uniform and tore the leggings off, "Once I get my hands on you, your powers are mine."
Juggernaut snorted, Selene had tried to use her powers on him once and while it stung a bit it was ineffective. She had hoped the man could provide her with the energy to survive but he just felt irritable and she was unfulfilled. She had told him why, his mutant power was the reason, but it was over his head, a complicated explanation for a simple man. If Rogue had been built using her DNA she was about to learn a hard lesson in overconfidence.
Juggernaut lifted the broken and dying Colossus, "Hey, speedy, get this one too, ain't gonna lie, it's gonna be messy. In fact get 'em all and get outta here, you're in my way." and Quicksilver zipped, grabbed Colossus and Gambit and vanished into the plane. To be sure though, he made sure that Gambit and Colossus were tied up, he might just be fast but with so much rope, he doubted even they could get free.
Juggernaut stretched and pointed up at Rogue, "Come get some," and bashed his fist together.
"You don't know what or who you're messing with," and she sprang forwards and flew at Juggernaut, who took the blow, grabbed Rogue by the leg and slammed her into the ground.
"Someone who ain't too smart," and he jumped up and landed an elbow into her chest. She coughed and grabbed his arm and as the power transfer spluttered and failed she pushed him off her and flew backwards,
His armour was interfering with her power and with a laugh, she grabbed it and used the power to force its molecules apart. As the armour plates glowed and then exploded, Juggernaut rocked back and forth as even his clothing was removed.
As she saw the impressive and bulging muscles of the man she considered leaving him whole. A good ally of power and idiocy would make her take over of Shaw's business much easier, but so would having all that strength herself. Why rely on an imbecile that could betray her and she sped towards him and grabbed him with both hands.
"Why? Why are you immune?" and she felt her power splutter and fail to absorb even the smallest amount of his ability or lifeforce.
"Smarter people than me can't tell you, summin about my mutant power bein all screwy." and as he stood and brushed the dust off his shoulder, "but it makes no difference, you hurt a lot of people, and I'm gonna stop you," and with his own leap, he sped towards. Smashing her with a fist and then following her path through the trees to drive her into the grounds once more. Rogue coughed and this time blood came up, and she grabbed his arm, but this time vaulted off it and into the sky.
"If I can't take your power, then why should I fight you?" and she flew away to the plane, looking to find more victims, one to gain a power from to use against him.
Taking a breath, Juggernaut lined himself up, crouched and then lept, sailing through the air and wrapping a thick arm around her, dragging her down with him.
Rogue struggled to free herself but even with the new power she had gained and the new physique she had drained from the blonde she wasn't strong enough to get free. As she punched and wriggled in his grasp he tightened his grip and crushed her, "You behave, and we'll see what they want done with you." Rogue was hoisted up, wriggling under one of Juggernauts arms but could only suffer the indignity of being carried back to the main entrance of the dam, where the rest of the team, or what was left of them, were waiting.
In the jet, Emma had done her best. Erik's eyes were bound and covered with the biogel. Peter had made sure there was a good supply on board and he was comfortable and resting. The burns were bad and most of the skin on his face was gone and it would take surgery to remove some of the more melted pieces of his armour.
The other three she had no ideas how to treat. The woman was aged and looked like she was in her 70s rather than the young blonde she had seen before and the two men were just as bad. Peter had told her the gel had regenerative properties and shrugging she tipped the whole jar over the top of them and left it. With nothing else, she looked out the jet's window, to see if Juggernaut had succeeded where the others had failed or if Rogue would be coming for him next.
As she saw Juggernaut heading towards them with a squirming woman she frowned and motioned for Pietro to open the jet's door.
"Hey, you agreed." and she shook her head and pointed,
"I agreed to leave the facility alone, but I want to talk to her." and as she pushed past him she walked down the jet's staircase and towards Cain.
Emma had agreed to leave the interior of the dam alone. She knew she had missed out several details concerning Shaw's operation but she couldn't be sure Peter and the rest would succeed. However, even she had no clue about the clones or Shaw's true intentions.
As she got closer the hair on the back of her neck raised, the woman was an almost perfect clone of her. Her hair was brown and her chest was larger but Emma stared in the mirror often enough to know who she was supposed to be. A twisted mirror of what Shaw thought she should look like and as the disgust rose, so did the anger.
As Juggernaut came close, Rogue stopped struggling, "well, if it ain't momma. Gonna spank me for bein' a bad girl?" and even held like a sack she laughed as Emma's face twisted in disgust.
