Issue 9: Rise of the Apocalypse

[dakota]

five hours later, still at the Exile's base...

Heather was running hard enough that she hit the door casing. She looked in at Blink and nodded," I found him. Betty is already gone to get Cap. He'll be meeting you there."

She looked around at the others, "Has anyone seen Tabitha? Hercules left almost two hours ago."

[Renekin Skywalker]

"Tabby need to sleep off a little Greek salad, hein?" Gambit asked, snickering.

[sasqaricious]

"To be honest I am not sure either. I hope she is ok?"

[dakota]

Heather scowled. " Someone better go find her. The rest of you get your things together, Betsy already went to get Captain America to meet you there. Hopefully we can get Creed back withoiut too much trouble."

[Renekin Skywalker]

"I'll go cherie." Gambit says, heading off to find her. So long as she wasn't making out with some other girl, there was nothing she would be doing that would suprise him.

[dakota]

Gambit's search led him to Tabitha's room. The door was cracked open, and he could see into the unfurnished room. Other than a dresser next to the closent, the only other features he could see were a small table with a picture of Tab's parents Colossus and Shadowcat holding an infant, and a very unkept bed that it was impossible to tell if anyone was in.

[Renekin Skywalker]

Gambit rapped on the door, leaning away against the door frame as he did. "Cherie? Come on, time to get up. We be hunting for Apocalypse, now."

[dakota]

The blankets moved slightly, followed by a groan, the only response Gambit got

[sasqaricious]

Tally realizes that gathering her things would be an easy task given that she has no things to gather. Between the non-stop action and X'ee disappearing she has lost everything she had save her bag. After she gets the bag, "OK I am ready!"

[Renekin Skywalker]

Hearing the groan, Gambit sighs, audibly. "Cherie, if you don't move, I'll be forced to come get you." he wasn't certain the threat of him being in the room would particularly worry her, but he knew his reputation, and was going to use that, at least, to get her into PJs. "And I don't think you want me to enjoy what I see, hein?"

[dakota]

" Go away" Was groaned from beneath the mess of blankets and pillows. A hand came out and touched the empty side of the bedonce, then padded around looking for something. " Oh you have got to be kidding me...," Tabitha's voice trailed as she sat up and looked at the empty bed. she suddenly looked up at Gambit and realized she was naked, and used her intangibility to melt down into the bed as she shouted,"REMY GET OUT!"


Heather looked at Tally and smirked," I'd say Gambit found Tabbycat."

[Renekin Skywalker]

Satisfied that Tabby was herself, safe and thoroughly embarrassed for her indiscretion, Remy calmly wheeled around so his back was to the door. "You know, Cherie, you are a sexy thing when you melt into a bed." He said, calmly, his voice accentuating the double entendre. She was trapped, and he was going to enjoy it.

[Dome]

Daredevil listens as everyone preps to go after Apocalypse. He says to Fatale, "will you be coming with us, or will they need to find a room to lock you up in?"

[dakota]

" Why you miserable ..." Tabitha trailed off as she had to come back up from the bed while twisting so he couldn't get a full view of anything yet more than enough to feed his imagination until she wrapped herself in the blankets. " I hope you are ready for a beating, Cajun." She threatened as she reached for her clothes. Once her undergarments were on, she kept her back to Remy as she moved to the dresser " What do you want, anyways?"


Fatale looked at Daredevil and shook her head. " No, apparently one of your companions named Morph has volunteered to keep me company until Psylocke and the other one figure out what to do with me. Like you care anyways."

[Dome]

"If I didn't care I wouldn't have asked. I did give you my word you would be safe, thus the reason I ask."
