Your attempts to manipulate me are demeaning. If I perform to your satisfaction, you favor me by extending my stay here. If I assist you, that ends. Now.
I'm manipulating you? You showed up at my door and traded your telepathy for a spot on the team. Who's using who?
I found the Professor for you. I've earned my place with the X-Men.
Just like the others, you have to continue earning it every day.
Because they've earned that, too.
MMagma
Well, I guess this is goodbye.
You don't have to go back to Brazil, you know. We got plenty of room at the institue.
If you change your mind, it's standing invitation.
MMagma
Thank you. Goodbye.
Amara, have to take the collar back.
MMagma
Please. Let me keep it.
I would. But, unfortunately, it ain't healthy to wear it too long.
[Logan, enveloped in stone, awakes to find himself inside the house and Kristie standing before him]
KKristie
You don't know?!
[Kristie uses her powers to envelope Logan's mouth in stone, suffocating him. She lets go and the stone stops enveloping his mouth]
KKristie
I was six years old when you took my father. I need to know why!
I did come after your father, but that's all I remember. They wiped my memory. I'm here to find answers too.
[Kristie becomes surprised. A tranquilizer dart flies through the broken window and strikes Kristie in the left side of her neck. She falls to the floor unconscious]
SSabretooth
[Breaks through the door and advances on Logan] Way to go, runt. Just couldn't leave well enough alone, could you?
[Logan glares at Sabretooth]
Nothing. Rogue's mind is a broken patchwork of thoughts from everyone she's ever touched. Sorting it out will take days, maybe weeks. Change of heart about her story?
[Walking ahead] Rogue ain't stupid. She had to know how we'd react, but she came anyway. [Enters room] Here's the plan, we're... why aren't you guys geared up?
What, you can't tell me you believe her. Not after...
[Jabs finger in Cyclops face] One, I told you to get ready, so you should be ready. And two, if those Brotherhood clowns wanna mess with us, then we'll go after them.
Wait. We won't need to. They're here.
[Zooms into room, grabs Emma's wrist and face slams her into pillar] Take out the telepath first; check. Invite ourselves in; check. [Causes an avalanche mudslide to crash into window and carry away Cyclops, Iceman and Shadowcat]
ISIceman and Shadowcat
Whoa.
It's now safe to wipe the floor with the X-Men.
TToad
Ha! What are you gonna do now? Can't risk hurting... [Cyclops blasts him out]
Emma. Emma, wake up.. [Quicksilver is zooming ahead] Pryde, phase! [Quicksilver slams into pillar]
SShadowcat
[Blob has jumped airborne] Watch out! [Blob pins Wolverine on floor and crashes through all floors to basement]
Rogue, it's possible... and I'm not saying for sure., but it's possible I owe you an apology. [Rogue takes off glove and Wolverine flies up the devastation cavity, cornering Domino with other X-Men with her aiming her guns undecidedly] Nobody's that lucky, darling.
[Touches Domino's shoulder from behind] Dom, don't.
[Cocks and aims gun under Rogue's chin] We all choose sides, Rogue. [Rogue touches Domino's cheek and incapacitates her]
[Stands up] Oh, my nose. I think Quicksilver broke my nose. [Hands glasses to Cyclops] Here.
Let's dump this trash at the corner and call the MRD on them. Pietro here will like that.
