X-MEN- CH-40. Stryker
Added 2024-09-28 10:38:14 +0000 UTCBut Raven didn't have much conversation with the other party.
"Hi, it's you. Thank you for saving me." When Kurt saw Raven, his depressed expression disappeared instantly. He was not yet the powerful superpower that he will be in the future, he was still young now. The explosion of X Academy made him very nervous, but when he saw Raven who saved him, he seemed to find support instantly.
"Yes, I remember you. What happened here?" Raven asked when she saw the familiar person.
"I don't know... There was an explosion inside the academy... Before we could react, we were rescued by a man in silver clothes... Then a rescue helicopter came, and the people who came down attacked us without saying anything. I fainted after that, and only woke up just now." Kurt stammered and told Raven what he knew.
Although Raven still didn't know what had happened, she knew a few key points. The first was that the explosion happened from inside, the second was that someone rescued them, and the third was that someone kidnapped several people.
"Where's Charles?" Raven hadn't heard any news about Charles, and she didn't think that the people who flew the plane could capture Charles.
"I don't know. When we were rescued... Oh, there was a woman. She told Hank that the professor seemed to be taken away by someone. But she didn't say anything specific. Then a helicopter flew over. The woman and Hank tried to negotiate with the other party, but then they were attacked and we all fainted."
Raven frowned and thought for a moment before asking, "Was there any marking on the helicopter?"
"I didn't notice it. Everyone was scared at that time..." Without any clues, Raven had no idea where to start.
"Do you want me to read their memories and see if I can find any clues?" Jean suddenly suggested.
"..Um..Okay, Kurt, are you willing?" Raven asked.
"Don't worry, I'm just looking at what happened just now." Jean said. Perhaps because they were of the same age, and because he was a kind person, he nodded and agreed. Jean activated her psychic abilities, entered Kurt's mind, and found memories from a few minutes ago.
"It's him." Jean said suddenly, "The one who took you away last time."
"Stryker? Are you sure? How do you know him?" Raven asked being puzzled.
"I saw him from Martin's memory. Don't worry, I've only seen his memory. Martin allowed me to use him for practice, and I saw him once that day." Jean explained.
"Can you find where he is?" Raven asked tentatively. She knew that the abilities of Jean, Martin and others could connect to other people. Stryker just left and should be not far from here. Maybe Jean can find him.
Jean tried it and shook her head, "No, either he is very far away, or he is in a place that can be shielded."
"Forget it, let's ask Martin for help." Riven said.
"What about them?" Jean asked, pointing at the dozens of children there.
"…"
Raven hesitated, "Let Martin come, he will help."
Jean smiled: "Of course."
Responding to Riven, Jean began to follow the link between the two and connected to Martin, which was much more convenient than a mobile phone. However, if Jean was the active party, the distance could not be too far. But the range of a city was still possible because she had the bonus of the power of the Phoenix.
"Martin..."
"Well, what's wrong?" Martin was accompanying Emma.
"Can you come over? We need backup."
"Okay, right away." After Martin said something to Emma, he instantly moved in front of the two women.
"What... happened?" The scene of such a huge castle of X Academy exploding into ruins was still a bit shocking. Raven told Martin her problem and looked at him expectantly. She understood her lover's character, but this was her former home after all, Charles was her good friend, and these children were Charles' hope.
"Don't look at me like that, dear, these are just minor problems." Martin said, "Let them all come over and settle them all... in our house first. With so many people, we can only let them squeeze in." Martin originally wanted to ask Emma to find a place for them, but gave up. Emma and Charles were opponents, so he didn't want to cause trouble for her.
"Thank you.. Muah~" Raven gave Martin a kiss of thanks and asked everyone to come over and stand together holding hands.
"Come here, Jean." Martin led Jean, then made sure everyone was exposed, and teleported them to the lawn at his home.
"Okay, let them stay here first. Raven, ask Wendy to prepare some food for them. We'll set out soon to find Hank first. They can't just sit out the matter of rescuing Charles."
"OK." Raven went to talk to Wendy and comfort the children. Martin explained to Emma how he could bring back so many people in just one trip.
"Can I pick one of them?" Emma asked with a smile.
"My dear, they are still children. They can't help you. Besides, let's forget about it since Charles is not here. Taking them away will only cause you trouble. Oh, by the way, did you see the blue kid? He can do it. You know his father."
"Red Devil?"
"Yes, they look alike, right? They also have similar abilities, both can teleport. If you want, you can reunite them. But I'm not sure if the Red Devil will like this child..."
"Hmph, it doesn't matter whether he likes it or not, leave it to me."
"Okay."
After Raven finished her explanation, she came to Martin and said, "Everything is fine."
"Well, I'll find out where Stryker is." As he spoke, Martin closed his eyes and felt carefully, and finally found a base in a snowy mountain where Stryker was. This base was also used to study mutants, and inside, Martin found a familiar person. The soldiers patrolling there also found the several people who had been captured.
"I've found them. Do you want to go and have some fun?" Martin asked Raven and Jean. This time he was there, so Jean can go with them.
"Of course."
"I want to go."
Emma and Wendy can't leave, so it would be nice to take them on a family battle trip. He reached out and grabbed the two women, said goodbye to Emma and Wendy, and then appeared at the gate of the base the next moment.
"Come on, go in." After the three of them went in, Martin sealed the door directly. Upon noticing a strangers entering, the guards inside, fully armed, ran towards them. As Martin thought about it, countless metal weapons appeared around him and pierced through the necks of all the enemies.
