Watch, I can flash across the sky a lightning bolt from up on high

[lehnsherr-erik.livejournal.com]

Just moments before they had been toasting the joining of two families to create peace. Now things have fallen into chaos with fights breaking out and a motorcycle bearing a rider wreathed in flames crashing through the window.

This is exactly what was not supposed to happen, looks like Ramon will be losing a paycheck and if anyone loses a life maybe a lot more.

Erik has stayed back from the fighting to watch the patterns for the most part. A nudge of power here and there to protect people while he and the others are encouraging normal citizens to flee to area so this can be taken care of.

Scott Summers is somewhere fighting based on the flash and sound of his optic blasts firing.

There is so much going on that it's understandable he didn't notice at first. Several hundred magnetic signatures are hard to sift through even for him but there is one missing that should be there.

"Lorna!" He looks around to confirm visually what he already knows. "WHERE IS MY DAUGHTER?"

The Ghost Rider isn't a slouch in a fight. Super strength is fueled by righteous fury. The probe to the possessed woman's mind by the telepath will reveal a smiling demon. Rich bitch wants to understand power? There is a reason Jean Grey is both chosen and weak against the Phoenix Force. Whatever that fissure is, hellfire now licks at it.

The skull is whipped back by the scissor kick. The Spirit of Vengeance then turns it's attention to the merc.

The faces. The bodies.

Jean Summers falls to her knees, vainly squeezing her eyes shut against her husband's reproachful gaze ... her son's innocent trusting eyes ... Xavier's devouring mind-voice....

The difference between this Charles Xavier and the Charles Xaviers who can normally be found throughout the universes can be summerized in a single word, as he sees Jean Summers's fall.

"Useless." He sneers, not even having a moment to amend his master plan. Obviously he had chosen his pawns too quickly. Take a moment to think: Scott is ignoring the biggest threat in the room. So he's finally making his move, eh? Good for him. The Rider can consume people with forced guilt with a glance, so direct mental contact may not be advised. Also, she's on a motorcycle that is made of fire.

A trio of blank faced employees turn fire extinguishers on Roxy and her bike's flaming wheels, while another trio of party guests...a man, his wife, and their ten year old girl, to be precice, stand at attention, blankly moving in front of Xavier's wheelchair!

"You will not undo my work." Xavier snarls at the interlopers, "Not when I am /so close/. The world /needs/ this, don't you understand? I can finally bring peace to this mad, angry, twisted little planet! And none of you meddlers will stop me, do you understand?! None of you!"

The family is brushed aside. He's grasping while the Rider is focused.

"Look at me, Charles Xavier and tell me what it is!"

Everyone else got a glance into their wickedness. This is a long hard stare at it.

Deadpool, meanwhile, has been cleaved in half by the mighty throw of that shield... but what little sense he has left as he bleeds is to earn his paycheck.

A sword is hurled at the back of the Rider's head as she roars past him...

"FIRE BAD!"

Eye contact. That's all it takes.

But, amazingly, impossibly, the mighty mind of Charles Xavier /struggles/ with the Ghost Rider's psychic invasion! Sizzling neural lightning manifests around the mastermind's wheelchair as he fights for his own sense of self, his beliefs, his DREAM...it's a world where crime is the only way to do busniess, he had to...

"Aaaah!" Xavier shakes in his chair, blood starting to frip from his nose, his mouth...his eyes...

Its all Sarah can do to retrieve the shield, completely shocked at Deadpool somehow still acting, despite being in two pieces...
She's not fast enough to stop the thrown sword, just hoping somehow Roxy will be able to take it.

Over the coms, she calls, "We need to fall back, with the Hulk and Deadpool down, they'll bring reinforcements... please tell me we can get Ghost Rider out... somehow?"

Ghost Rider is undeterred. There is so much evil from this man. So much blood and pain that he's ordered. Every cut Forge made burns across his skin. Every death knell lances through his superior telepathic mind. Every day of wickedness shreds his soul finer and finer. Then there are images far blacker - the twisted souls of Xavier's protegee's are laid before him. The images of a loving mutant couple and their almost normal lives - the Xavier ideal - twisted apart through his machinations. Looking into the empty socks of the Rider is to look at your soul through the eyes of the divine. Charles has profaned so much of the good in this universe on his mission.

A mission that began to protect and grow mutant kind twisted away from it's almost holy mission and has come to this place...

"This is your wrath. Your pride. How is it Professor! How does it feel to fail!"
