---

Iceman has posed:
As if wintertime commutes were not bad enough, this one is worse. The traffic in the middle of the North Bridge has come to a halt - there's honking and yelling as people try to wonder at the large snow bank that is forming on the sides of bridge. Then the snow starts to move. As it does so, it starts to spit out large balls of snow that smash into cars and vehicles, making a mess and sowing panic as people flee from their vehicles.

Instead of melting, the balls transform, becoming little ice shaped gremlins. Just like from the movie. The gremlins giggle and twitter as they start to climb all over the bridge, freezing the supports and bolts, which start to give with loud metallic groans and a /PANG/ of a metal cable support giving away.

Standing in the middle of the supports, watching over it all?

That would be one Robert Drake - currently completely iced over in his mutant form. His eyes are vacant and his smile is dark as he watches his minions at their work at dissembling the bridge to bring it down in the middle of rush hour!

Rogue has posed:
Rogue is at the helm of the blackbird. Normally this might unsettle folks to see a barely-20 year old flying a jet of this technological level, but... she stole all of Carol's training, who knows everything about this jet. So, score! Why crack a book when you can suck the knowledge right out of someoen's head.

"Looks like a reql fun time is happeinin' outside, ya'll." Rogue says to those also in the jet's interior. The Blackbird is piloted around the bridge, making a loud buzz reverberate just about everyone on said bridge.

The X-Men's jet pops up on the north side of the crossway and it comes to level-out and hover beside it. "We're good t'unload." Rogue says, reaching forward to slide her fingertips across the display screen that operates the hatch.

The hatch in the back of the jet starts to open up. "Go fight some little beasties!"

Iceman has posed:
Turning his head towards the X-Jet, Robert's hand raises and closes. And the wind around the plane starts to get colder. Ice starts to form on the metal surfaces of the plane as it hovers. It's clear that Iceman is trying to //freeze// the Blackbird in place.

Can he even do that?

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie will looks over to the group, and walks towards the group. "Who's flying the Cannonball Express?" He will ask, as he puts his goggles down over hsi eyes.

Jubilee has posed:
Strapped in a seat is Jubilee, who is looking out the window. "Is that a Bizarro Bobby? Eesh. Anyone brought a flame thrower, or I dunno... Sunfire? He'd be great on this mission." Glancing down at her sparkling hands, she clears her throat. "Looks like it's up to old Jubes to step it up and provide the razzle dazzle." She jokes as she looks to her teammates.

Cyclops has posed:
    Scott stands up from the controls of the Jet and turns around while the team is on approach. The leader is wearing a heavy parka with black and white furs lining the cuffs and around the pulled down hood. He has on the silver visor with a shiny red eye. He lifts one hand to grab onto the bulk head to steady himself, not that he needs to Rogue's awfully skilled at flying the Blackbird.

    "Alright team, we have another one of our own on the field giving some civilians a scare. This is Bobby we're going up against today, so I know some of you will want to laugh it off, but he's no joke when he puts his mind to it." Scott says with eyes focused more on Jubilee and Sam, knowing they're likely the ones to goof off more than anyone else. "Stay fast, stay hot, Sam, you're going to be key in this." Cyclops notes to the whole team.

    Scott turns to Betsy and gives her a nod before asking, "Will you be able to run psychic coms for us? I know that's usually not your job, but we usually aren't going against our Iceman in Metropolis." Scott says with a shrug and then a look to Jubilee, "You're also going to be key with the plasma, keep it quick fast and light, it's going to be dangerous, but I need you and Sam to come at him from opposite sides, maximize our coverage.

    "Pixie, we're not sure if these doppelgangers can be effected by your dust, I think now is the time to test that. Fast, don't stay still and don't get too close, but if it doesn't work, we need you and Rogue on civie evac, understood?" Scott says, then he swallows on his own air as Rogue's maneuver brings the back of the Blackbird in line with the bridge and Scott is the first to step off. "Sam, arch around the bridge to hit Bobby from the other side but stay listening to thaw out friendlies." Scott hits the bridge running and presses himself against the side of the nearest car and opens the back door, looking to see if there's anyone inside to get them out and running back to the end of the bridge.

Pixie has posed:
Unbuckling as the back starts to open, Pixie gets to her feet and looks a little wane. "It's winter and we're fighting evil Iceman." She looks back to Rogue and squares her shoulders a little. "Sure." She looks to Sam and walks over to join him. "I got my way down." She clenches her fist a moment and with a look back towards Scott draws her Soul Blade. "Dust it is. If his minions are like the Rogue, or he is-the blade will work fine too Cyke."

Psylocke has posed:
Psylocke nods at the instructions from Scott, reaching out to create a psionic network among those she is able to effect. Anyone that might be unable to hear telepathy will be out of the loop. "If you think it, it will relay to everyone. I will keep focused on that but I do want to be on the ground. I will stay out of the fray for now but if needed, I can try to use a psiblade on him."

Jubilee has posed:
"Aye aye, captain!" Jubilee calls out to Cyclops as she gives him a salute, then tugs down her reflective shades over her eyes an straps them to her head. Snagging her long yellow half trench coat, she flips it over her body, then tugs on a pair of blue gloves that also match her snowboots. "Sam, you wanna drop me down behind him before you zoom in? I'll try and draw his attention so you can deliver a KO." He's invulnerable in his blaster, and she's mobile enough to evade if necessary.

Iceman has posed:
As plans are made in the Blackbird, Robert continues to drop the temperature in the plane. Even with it's advanced avionics, Rogue may notice that the controls are starting to feel sluggish - the hydraulics are starting to freeze - he's making it colder and colder in that little circle around the aircraft, the temperature gauges already reading at negative 20 and lowering.

At the bridge itself, the ice gremlins are chasing off the remainder of the civilians on the bridge, while others are working on those bridge supports, grabbing them and freezing the metal to the point where it becomes brittle and breaks. It's clear that they are working on the cabling support systems. With the others starting to deploy, some of the little ice devils turn and start to rush the plane, skreeing and freezing the ground beneath them as they rush towards the plane and the X-Men.

On the bridge itself, Robert starts to building more ice. There's an impassive stare towards the arriving plane and as Sam ejects from the Blackbird, his attention swivels to the flying mutant, a solid beam of ice flying out and streaking towards the blasting mutant as he blazes by.

The wave of ice gremlins leap from the supports, to cars and leap at the attacking mutant, one of them trying to take a swipe at Psylocke, aiming to try to take out the psionic user first.

Cyclops has posed:
    (((I'm not sure your Psiblade will work Betsy, Jean said the Rogue copy didn't have a mind, it was more like a puppet, but if you could sever the strings, that may work. If you get an opening, give it a try.))) Scott thinks towards Betsy, having had plenty of practice working with telepaths in such situations. Scott peaks inside the door and finds a rather shaken woman, a twenty something and he holds his hand forward, "Take my hand, we're going to help you." Scott says, knowing he's looking kinda scary with the visor but a helping hand is a helping hand as the professor had taught him. Scott quickly gets the woman to crawl out of her car and he keeps her head down while he guides her towards the front of the bridge, away from the Bobby and gremlins.

    Standing up and with a deep red glow coming from his eyes, Scott frowns as he spies the small one at the cables and grunts his disapproval. "There's a lot of them." He snarls and starts taking precise shots at the creatures on the bases of the cables. (((I need someone to clear the other side))) He issues the command mentally, suddenly worried this team is not enough to keep up with one of their own.

Rogue has posed:
When the ice starts to come for the Jet, Rogue tips the nose down and aims its aft side up. "Woah, now." She says as the controls start to lock up some. "I think he's tryin' t'turn us inta a frosty!" She shouts back at the others, but mumbles to herself. "After this, we're swingin' by Wendys' t'get some frostys..."

"I'm gonna do a bit of a move here t'keep his ice at-bay. Stay away from the engines!" Rogue shouts. back over her left shoulder while she uses her left hand to keep the controls stable... they can't fight her kung-fu grip, but she does run the risk of breaking them if she doesn't go easy on it.

With a flick of a few switches, the jet's tail end faces Bobby's ice-stream at the Jet and she FIRES the ignition on the JR-75 Turbojets that give the Blackbird its thrust. Suddenly the fuel inside the jet is struck with a healthy dose of triethylborane and the engine flames FLASH GREEN, bright and HOT, burning away the ice.

"Everyone out!" Rogue shouts, and a second later the Blackbird is firing away from the bridge at break-neck speeds!

Pixie has posed:
"My wings are going to freeze if I don't get moving." Pixie says and squashes down the dread looking down at the duplicate. "Here goes. One Disney entrance." And then the half fae mutant is jumping out of the Blackbird and swooping over toward the ice gremlins with a wave of pixie dust follwing her in an arc of glittery drug trip before looking for a way to get close to Notbert.

Jubilee has posed:
"Brr!" As the Blackbird swings around, Jubilee takes advantage and leaps out of it to land on her feet, then starts moving quickly along the bridge towards her bizarro teammate. Leaping over a car, she slides along the roof's ice surface to gain some momentum. Once she comes into view of the ice king, she drops down behind another vehicle and lobs over an explosive blast of sparklers to aim for Bobby's face in an attempt to blind him momentarily.

FLASH! CRACK! POP!

With that, she is moving again, sweeping around the left in an attempt to flank. << Sam! Come on my dude, give him a whumping! >>

Psylocke has posed:
Psylocke chooses a different way down to the bridge. She just disappears into a shadow. A moment later, she appears beside an abandoned car on the bridge. Only to find that she has become the target of gremlins as they swarm her direction. She draws a katana from over her shoulder while a purple glowing version of the same weapon appears in her left hand. She uses those blades, to deal with the beasties as she keeps her concentration on the telepathic relay for the team.

Iceman has posed:
With the ice gremlins swarming Psylocke, her sword slices through the ice, breaking them into pieces, and they only form into small gremlins, going after her legs.

Scott's blasts start to surgically remove some of the ice creatures, causing them to shatter and fall off the bridge. As the Blackbird jets away, Robert is turning his attention fully to Sam just to get a faceful of fireworks. The mutant stumbles backwards along the bridge support before trying to make things even colder for Jubilee.

While the ice gremlins have no minds of their own, they are under the control of Robert and Pixie's dust is reacted to, the creatures swaying and skreeing in a stupport as they remain in place.

Rogue has posed:
The Blackbird rockets away from the bridge and its engines become a bit distant on the cold winter winds. Its visibly making a descend toward a nearby park along the water's eastern edge and it circles around a grove of trees before it settles in amongst a clearing between them.

Its only a matter of moments later that a figure darts silently out of the back of the landed jet and starts to arc upward in the sky, flying at a fast rate of speed... Rogue angles her way back toward the bridge, coming at it from its eastern entry point. She moves tremendously fast and as Ice Gremlins leap upward at her, she simply bats them aside with her fists and forearms, then scoops up an SUV that was under-assault by the little frozen devils!

Pixie has posed:
Looking over her shoulder Pixie smiles and her wings flutter a little brighter. <<Looks like the Dust is a go. Going in for a pass now.>> She thinks and looks at the great Ice Imposter taking a breath to steel herself before arcing towards the doppleganger. Seeing Rogue in action and looking back to Bobby she clutches her blade a little tighter in her hand and prepares another arc of pixie dust.

Jubilee has posed:
"C'mon Bobby, chill out!" Jubilee calls out wittingly as she leaps over another car, trying to use it as a shield as she sends out another round of sparklers in the air in one direction, moving off in the opposite as she looks to draw his attention away from her. A snow goblin explodes in a blast of snowy poof as she throws out another round of plasmoids when they get too close.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie will come in flying at full blast, and coming in to lower center mass at his target. The young man is playing his name sake and is cannonball right towards the other to take him out.

Cyclops has posed:
    Scott gets one side of the bridge clear, as acurate with his eyebeams as someone can be, hard to miss when you simply have to look at your target. "Get him busy and don't let him keep focus on anyone team." Scott says, as he bolts across the bridge to get to the other side and clear off any goblins on that side. He always knew Bobby was a headache, but this is a bit much for the X-man. These doppelgangers are frustrating as can be. "Psylocke, Pixie, when there's an opening, and when he's distracted by someone else, either of you take your shot. Get this thing down before the whole bridge is taken down." Scott says as he fires more and more blasts at the gremlins. "Everyone else, keep it up, I want to see more people getting off this bridge though."

Iceman has posed:
With Pixie and Sam making their attacks, Robert was just turning towards the fae mutant when suddenly Samuel cannonballs right into from behind. Iceman cracks under the pressure and goes tumbling from the bridge and with a SPLASH!

The ice gremlins, with no directions, collapse back into little piles of snow and ice. Everything on the bridge goes quiet except for a few screams, the sound of sirens and a few car alarms that were going off.

The X-Men have won the day!

Then the water bubbles. Boils - at least that's how it appears, as snowy white caps appear on the water as a thin layer of ice forms along the edges of the bridge before a berg of ice breaks the surface. Except it's not an iceberg.

Up from the depths, 30 stories high, breathes ice, it's scanning the skies... a massive ice dragon rises from the water, roaring and creaking as more ice forms around the creature. It's wings open and crack out - the angles sharp, dangerous - as if whole planks of ice were slammed together. Bobby Drake has never /dared/ to try to make anything this massive.

One giant clawed hand of the dragon comes down on the bridge as it swivels it's head and fires off a massive icebeam towards Samuel. It's tail rises from the water, barbed, sharp, covered in ice as it tries to slam it down on the bridge where Jubilee, Scott, and Psylocke are located.

The other clawed hand reaches out to swipe at Rogue, attempting to cleave into her, while it's massive wings snap forward to make a whirlwind to try to bring a freezing wind through Pixie's wings.

And in the middle of it's chest, Robert Drake is it's core, his powers manifesting from every limb of his body, his head sheagthed in a sharp, angular look that is nothing like the usual Bobby forms.

Rogue has posed:
As Rogue zips past Pixie with her recovered SUV in-hand she speaks into the team comms. "Remember, ya'll. This thing ain't actually Bobby Drake. Lord knows where the real one is right now, but this ain't him. So don't hold back!"

She says this a moment before that dragon situation unfolds and she looks over to see it just in time to 'feel' the attack with her seventh sense, "Woah!" She ducks down onto the ground, making the SUV's tires touch down (and all the people inside it bump up and down harshly inside the vehicle).

"We're gonna need a dragon slayer for this one!" She's fought some weird stuff in the past couple of years, but this is a first. "That thing's gonna bring down the whole bridge..."

She delivers the SUV off of the bridge, back behind the MetroPD vehicles, then sweeps back around to go get more.

Iceman has posed:
Back at the mansion, Bobby Drake is wandering the halls, his hands clutched around a baseball bat. "Hello?" he asks, as he comes around a corner..

And suddenly a zombie leaps out at him.

"AAAAH!" Bobby flails the bat ineffectively before the zombie is upon him...

YOU ARE DEAD.

Bobby rips off the VR goggles and pants a few times. "I didn't even get past level three.."

And that's when he sees the message for all hands to report to Scott.

"Oh. Crap."

Pixie has posed:
Ice, meet wings. Pixie drops with a pained cry and tries to twist to land wings up so they don't shatter. "Flights out, if I'm not careful they'll shatter. If we can get an opening to the core that'd be peachy." Pixie calls out and starts to run using cars for cover and planning how to reach the dopple with her blade.

Jubilee has posed:
Peering over the edge of the bridge, Jubilee blows a frosty breath of air past her bangs. "Hey, is it just me or was that way too easy?"

When the water begins to rumble and the dragon shoots up out of it, she lets out a scream of surprise, then starts hightailing it off the bridge as fast as she can. When the tail hits the bridge, she goes flying forward from the impact against the tree, slamming her shoulder into a car with a pained noise. ".. Ow." Scrambling to her feet, she takes off again.

Psylocke has posed:
That didn't work as expected. Betsy now has even more of the little monsters to deal with. She considers a moment then slices through them again, purposefully making them smaller. Then she makes a run for it, heading for a nearby SUV and leaping up onto the hood before turning back to face them. Hopefully they are lower than the bumper of the vehicle now. If they just will get close enough, into the shadow she is casting, she intends to open that shadow and dump them into the shadow realm for the moment. Maybe then she might have a chance to approach the target. Which is when the dragon appears. A bloody dragon! "Bobby Drake, I hate you right now," she mutters under her breath even as she has to leap to the side to avoid getting turned into mush by that ice tail. She does a flying roll and curls up, rolling up to her feet and running rapidly away to make it harder for him to hit his target. To say she is outmatched in this instance is an understatement.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie will get hit by the icey breath, but luckily Sam is neigh invulnerable when he is blasting and it just knocks him off course, sending him on a wide circle back along the bridge. He looks over the battle field. <Ah got an idea, Ah am gonna piss it off and see it Ah can get it to chase me, it has wings, if I can get it flying away, Rogue you think you can fastball special a tanker truck?> He will angle towards Jubilee <Pick up in bound, be ready.">

Cyclops has posed:
    Scott doesn't even stand down at the Dragon's appearance, if anything he steps forward and with his thumb he flicks the controls for his visor.

    Time to put on some DragonForce and crank that shit up to 11.

    Scott lifts his balled fist as he opens up his optics to their limit and does something he doesn't get to do often enough. He goes all out. A wave of crimson bursts from Scott's visor and he even is pushed back before he snaps his leg furthing behind himself as a brace and the concussive blast washes over the dragon before Scott then focuses all that energy and force into a thin beam and he aims to punch the dragon in half to expose the Bobby filled center inside.

Iceman has posed:
The concussive force slams into the side of the dragon, and is reflected amongst the ice and snow that the dragon is made out of is reflected and it shatters along the uneven seams. The head and neck of the dragon are blasted away as is the left wing of the massive creature.

Robert Drake is exposed in the middle of the core of the creature. And he ejects.

Hitting an ice slide now that the dragon has been ripped into, he leaves it to rampage and continue to try to clambor onto the bridge. As for the frozen mutant that has been released, his attack comes directly towards the ruby-opticed mutant - ice beam engaging directly to concussion beam, ice and ruby blasts flying all over the place. This is a side of Robert Drake's powers that none have seen. He's pulling water vapor from the river, the air, his ice creatures, everything. And as he does so, more ice is forming around him, falling off in droves as he moving closer towards Scott and attempts to slam his hand directly over the visor and //freeze// it to the X-Men leader's face.

Of course, this leaves him open to those behind him, if they dare to get through all the ice spikes forming behind him.

Rogue has posed:
On Rogue's return trip she swoops over a few civilian cars, but there's just too many to get them all to safety... Sam's request garners her attention however so she adjusts course to rip the driver out of the tanker a few lanes over from where she was. "Run for the police!" She tells the man, though there's so many car doors open and other civilians running its kind of a mess.

She disappears beneath the tanker and detaches it from the truck with a snap of metal. "Okay, CB." She says over her comms, as the tanker lifts up, with her beneath it... her arms held up high and her hair blowing in the winter winds.

She eyes the dragon, sees it seperate from its creator... and then THROWS the tanker of 'FLAMMABLE' at the Skryim-esque monster.

Cyclops has posed:
    "Cyclops' Dragon Force is open for business." The man retorts to the semi-damaged ice dragon with a triumphant pose before he realises Bobby is out and is rushing for him, with the only option to be to unleash more and more of the concussive force at the copy-cat. Scott grits his teet and clenches his fists as he steps up and into Bobby's attack, countering the ice beam with everything he can, but doing his best to stare this danger in the face like a hero should.

Pixie has posed:
Seeing Scott in a jam, Pixie eyes her options. Sprinting while Rogue throws a tanker in the air the other way she gets her dagger up. Building speed she beats her wings once, twice, three times before they shatter and she uses the free fall to try and clear the spikes and take a wild swing at not-Bobby with her soul dagger bellowing as she does. "Psy! Help!" is her fierce battle cry.

Psylocke has posed:
Hearing the cry from Pixie, Psylocke leaps over a car and lands in the shadow of a semi tractor trailer. That's all she needs. One moment she is there, the next she has turned into a living shadow and melted away into the darkness. An instant later, her shadow form rises up behind Fake-Bobby. It's easy enough with the light that is being created by Scott's optic blasts making their opponent cast a perfect shadow behind him. She brings her katanas into play, the metal and psionic, cutting at the form iced form of their mock teammate. Though it likely does nothing to harm him, hopefully it gives him enough of a distraction not to counter Pixie's attack.

Jubilee has posed:
As she hauls across the bridge, Jubilee lets out a panting breath. She turns around to watch Scott blast the dragon, followed by the new attack from the Ice Man. Turning around, she throws her hands out and sends out a dual blast of plasmoids towards them, looking to add a bit of presence to Scott's beams to try and create a hotter blast. She grits her teeth, /focusing/. "Yo, Elsa. Just let it go!" She hollers out.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie will grab Jubilee from behind and lop under the bridge. He hits the ice dragon as close to it's center mass, as he can. Throwing all he has to try to lift the beast up and away from the bridge. To Jubilee he adds. "When we are clear of the bridge light the beast up." Sam trusts Scott, and the others to deal with the non-bobby, but they need this thing to stop rocking the boat while they do.

Iceman has posed:
When Samuel slams into the remains of the ice dragon, it's not as heavy as one would expect. Perhaps it was hollow on the inside. Not that it matters as the massive berg of creature is lifted, creaking and cracking as he pushes up high into the sky as the tanker slams into it and it explodes over the river. At least the fallout from that will only spill into the river - and you know, not all over the bridge.

Speaking of the bridge - Scott and Robert are going at each other at full power - yet while Scott is struggling - it almost seems like Robert is giving very little effort. The multiple blasts from Jubilee turn his attention, allowing Scott's beam to break through, ripping off the man's shoulder, just as he's impaled with multiple blades.

The physical blade may not hurt, but with the psy and soul blades, Robert suddenly shatters, collapsing into a pile of ice that still holds a vaguely Iceman like appearance, the head's soulless eyes staring out at the world from where it lies. He let it go --- all over the bridge.

Rogue has posed:
Rogue raises her yellow-gloved hands up to shield her eyes from the explosion of the tanker. She then watches the fallout from it for a few moments while floating motionlessly in the air.

Her eyes sweep over to see the evil-Drake shattered upon the bridge and her eyes narrow. She deactivates her flight power and drops down to her booted feet and starts to walk toward the others.

"He ain't gonna... ya know... go all Terminator on us and start reformin' right?" She asks. "Should we grab his head and run for it? Shove the rest off the bridge and get the heck outta here?"

Pixie has posed:
"You didn't resurrect after the soul blade pierced you." Pixie points out, looking up at Rogue and wincing. "I'm going to look real stupid for weeks." She complains and hangs her head. Putting the dagger away she looks down at fake Bobby's head and walks to the edge of the bridge to throw up quietly.

Cyclops has posed:
    Scott had fallen onto his rear, the cold cold concrete below helped push him back to his feet as he nudges some ice with his foot and responds to Rogue. "I think you need to watch terminator again." Meaning her reference was way off. "I'm not sure what we can do about all this. I didn't bring a broom and dustpan." Scott says to the team, looking for ideas. "Jubilee! Come over here and melt this all away would you?"

Jubilee has posed:
"On it!" Jubilee says as she hurries forward, tugging her shades up to the top of her head. Once she slides in next to Scott, she starts to microwave the best she can with her powers as she blasts the ground with her sparklers, causing the lights to leap and dance as she pours on the plasma. She looks /really/ focused now, trying not to look at chunky Bobby parts. Just focus on the mission.

Iceman has posed:
Time passes...

On a single icefloe that's floating down the Hudson, the ice shifts.

Small crystals's move and coalesce back together.

The ice creaks and shifts.

And a pair of eyes open!

To be continued...?

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie will walk over to the rest of the group brushes ice off his shoulders looking around to make sure nothing is moving that should not be, and make sure no civilians are still in danger "Well, looks like we got it down with no major injuries to civilians. He will look for a hunk of Iceman that has not been touched much by the others and says "We got a cooler big enough on the bird for this chunk?"

Pixie has posed:
Wincing, Pixie wanders over too to help with clean up. "I hate these doubles." She grumbles darkly and starts to do as much as she can avoiding touching any pieces that look like shattered Iceman. Belatedly it occurs to her to look and make sure Scott is ok and that she and Psylocke made it in time.

Rogue has posed:
Rogue stands there with her hands on her hips for a few moments, watching Jubilee's spectuacular sparkle-show. She spares a glance over to Pixie when she hears a bit of barfing near the railing, and this makes her frown. But her eyes go back to Scott... then the others.

"I'll go get the jet. I think he may'a damaged it a bit, but it should be fine till we get back home and I can get a look at it under the hood. So t'speak anyhow."

With nothing else said, Rogue raises her right hand up into the a-la Superman-style and she slips off of the bridge and into the cold winter air, then starts on a high curve around and back down toward the park where she'd landed the Blackbird.

Cyclops has posed:
    Scott gives a nod to Rogue, "Lets get out of here. I'm sure this isn't going to help mutants but we did save some lives today." Scott says as he looks down at the left overs of the clone of Bobby Drake. "Where are these coming from?" He asks no one as he kicks another bit with the deep frown of thought on the leaders face. "Move out team. You all did great but, lets not linger. This is going to be a bad week." Scott says, certain the news will have a field day with this one.
