Kapitel 51: Stryker's raid, Unexpected opposition
(These next few chapters will be from other character's perspectives.)
Illyana ran out of the room as quickly as possible once she heard her woman's words, her worry evident across her face as her pace was manic, her sword swaying up and down in her hand as she sprinted.
After running towards the children's dorms for a minute she stopped to catch a breath, her position not that far away from some studies. Small beads of sweat dripped from her forehead as an ominous feeling continued to well within her stomach.
'I can't let them effect those kids in any way!'
'I know i can make it, i just need a little more time...'
As she panted shallowly, regaining her breath, the sound of glass breaking echoed down the hallways, smoke grenades and flash bangs following in the footsteps of the noises.
'Fuck...'

Cyclops, Wolverine and Slipstream all ran down the corridors of the mansion in search of stray students and threats. Cyclops was the first to run into an enemy as a man in tactical gear leapt through the stained glass of one of the miniature libraries, sub machine gun in hand. Cyclops instantly reached for his visor's button and unleashed a concentrated beam of energy from it. The beam landed on the man's shoulder blasting him back into a nearby book shelf as his equipment began to smoulder.
Wolverine came up behind Cyclops who at this point was clearing the window from other incursions. Multiple beams emitted from his visor again as the view of multiple people being flung back was conveyed to several occupants in the mansion. Panicked screams and explosive noises were what followed as several smoke grenades and flash bangs went off.
Wolverine decided to sprint off and open the door to every room, checking them for children and infiltrators. Slipstream currently was focussing on connecting his warp wave to the children's dorms but it was taking him some time as his powers were quite finicky.
"Is there any chance you can get your ability to work soon?"
Cyclops's tone was harsh and brash as he fired another beam off outside of the window, knocking down an RPG mid-flight. His usual calm appearance was broken at this moment as another RPG was flung towards the two of them, Cyclops once again blasting them out of the sky, leading to numerous aerial explosions that sent heatwaves and violent sound waves through the mansion.
"Somethin or someone is interfering... It's most likely Emelia's doin, she's probably locking down this bloody mansion from everything. Teleportation, warping, physically entering... Who knows."
"Great, just great... Well, you go help Logan save the kids, I'll hold off the attacks from outside."
Another round of RPG's started to fire off, causing his concern in talking to Slipstream to become nil. Bullets were flying in after the RPG's as well.
'Shit...'

Xavier and Jean hurried as fast as they could down to the bottom floors of the hidden basement of the X-Men. The silver hallways were aglow with bright white and yellow lights as they sprinted in the direction of Cerebro. Jean was distracted somewhat from the comment of Emelia when she left the room, a soft red glow tinting her cheeks and skin as her feet constantly clanked off of the metal flooring of the hallways. Xavier was currently using his wheelchair as fast as he could his pace similar to Jean's despite his obvious disadvantage.
Xavier was searching the surroundings of the mansion, halting intruders when needed as well as guiding some lost students of his that had chosen to hide instead of running. A couple minutes passed as they finally reached Cerebro, the massive reinforced steel door imposing on the space of the hallway. Ignoring the usual sight Xavier quickly went to the genetic scanner on the left side of the door, soon finishing the sequence to enter.
They hastily entered. Xavier and Jean were not sprinting but were at a brisk walk as they crossed the singular pathway leading to the entrance of the expansive sphere that was Cerebro. Jean felt the presence of Emelia consume her senses as the entire school felt covered by her energy.
'Her shield must have worked... We have time to escape and bury Cerebro if need be.'
When they reach the table with the silver helmet that allowed access to Cerebro laying on it Xavier didn't hesitate to grasp it and don it on his bald head. Jean went completely still as the holographic projection of numerous red and white light emerged from the outlines of countries across earth. The lights started to flicker as the projection began to solely focus on the United States, in search of Nightcrawler.
"How long will this take professor?"
"I do not fully know Jean, but if we do not have the location within twenty minutes we're escaping."
"Don't let me distract you then."

Piotr ran in the most direct route to the children's dorms, the path he believed his sister must have taken. Eventually he come upon a scene that would make even him, the usual calm and collected person, see red. Illyana was on the ground crying her eyes out from several flashbangs impacting her eyes at once as numerous spec ops men circled around her with assault rifles and special tranquilizer guns, prepared to capture her.
"Illyana! You dare touch my sister!?"
Coming through the hallway like a speeding truck he struck multiple spec ops soldiers in a shoulder charge, the sound of bones cracking being distinctive amidst the sound of gunfire. The bullets that were fired bounced off of his steel-like skin, the tranquillizers doing the same, all of them falling to the floor. He backhanded another soldier that had attempted to stab him with a knife, a large grunt strangled cry sounded from the man's throat as he flew through the windows they had just entered the building through.
Only five men were remaining and two of them held Illyana, their guns pointed at her head, the threat obvious. A lull came to the combat as Piotr slowed his actions, trying to come up with a way to get her safely away. That was when the dull sound of explosions from outside ceased, replaced by an almost non-existent hum.
'She has finished the shield, good, maybe she will come for Illyana.'
Just as he finished his thought he saw the figure of Emelia suddenly apparate behind the two spec ops soldiers who held Illyana hostage.
'That is bad, they are so fucked.'
