Attack on the Pentagon (Thread One)

[Cannonball]

He nodded as Von Damme explained how to most likely destroy the sentinels hopefully he was right otherwise this was going to be a very long battle. He swore as a tornado came down he slid a cross the ground a little bit and spotted the other one flying off into the Pentagon. Before he could do anything he was hit by a bolt from Hiro but luckily he had his blast field up to protected him it. Ignoring him he blasted off heading after Nassr into the Pentagon whatever he had planned on doing in there he was going to put a stop to it one way or another.

When he was inside he could see the bodies of the guards shaking his head he flew on knowing those men wear dead and couldn’t be helped. It only took a few moments to find Nassr due to the sounds of the dieing and the sounds of high winds. Flying though the wall he went to slam into Nassr not trying to kill him but enough to stop him from attacking the others. “You wanna fight someone pick a fight with me.”

The Von Damme bots continued targetting the Sentinels, hovering around the air, firing towards the visual receptors, or eyes as the common man might refer to them, but such automaton units didn't have eyes, it was incorrect.

Regardless, Von Damme himself was ready to play his hand, he focused his attention on the wielder of electricity, whom his daughter appeared to be targeting too. From what Von Damme had seen, there was nothing he could do to bring harm to the Latverian, they both manipulated electricity, and thus negated each other, but with Victor in his armour, it would be likely the Brotherhood member would just break his hand if he tried attacking him.

He moved into the attack, not going straight for his opponent, but around and to curve in, to flank his opponent and deny him the ability to focus on one target, pull his attention into multiple directions. He came up on Hiro, armoured fist swinging in to catch him in the kidneys, a good hit would leave the boy pissing blood for a month.

Valeria blinked watching Hiro's lighting bolts hit her force field. This guy...was a real snore to scuffle with. She had expected a challenge, and he was a dud. She figured she'd just crush him now and get it over with. That was before her father decided to get involve and try to attack him as well.

"Dad! This is totally my fight! Why are you intervening? I can handle him!" she whined. If Doom was going to fight Hiro himself, there was no need for Valeria to try and fight him anymore. It'd just be over kill. However, there was a certain little air boy that needed to learn some respect. Mr. Gutherie was already targeting him and Valeria used her force energy to propel herself through the sky behind the biology teacher and towards Nassr. The blonde halted, creating a pillar of invisible energy below her feet making it seem like she stood on air. She looked around at the mangled bodies in the rubble below...it sickened her. How someone could just take a life without any regret whatsoever. Did this air fucker even have a soul?

"Bastard, you have no heart..." she gritted her teeth as she started to pull energy around Nassr to encase him into a force field. Once she had him trapped, the beat down would begin.

[northstar]

"Well you certainly suck at it." Northstar commented since Air-Rider claimed he had faced plenty of speedsters before. Before his fists could connect with the man's face a blast of wind forced Northstar away as the young mutant cursed. The kid obviously had gotten lucky with that blast. It was at that moment things got crazy. The wind manipulator turned his Sentinels turned onto the Pentagon and began turning the place into swiss cheese. And then the bodies started to fly out of the building. This mutant JP had been facing really was a monster and obviously wouldn't stop until he had killed as many people as possible. Anger flared through Jean-Paul's body as he practically trembled as his mutant power began to focus thanks to the rage that fueled his form.

Suddenly Northstar seemed to just disappeared. In reality he was moving faster then he normally did. His form passed across the ground so quickly that wind shears tore apart the ground and began to drag various items behind as they got caught up in the powerful draft that followed him. Within miliseconds Northstar traveled across the turf to the interior of the Pentagon. He dashed this way and that as he searched for Nassr. So fast was he moving that everything else seemed to be moving at a crawl. Papers slithered through the sky, dead bodies tumbled through the halls, debris cluttered everywhere but Northstar didn't care and dodged around the items he could but simply plowed through the objects he couldn't avoid at this speed. Finally he wound the wind mutant and gritted his teeth for what he would do next. He could already see Valeria and Cannonball in the room but that didn't matter to the young Canadian. Jean-Paul had started the fight against Nassr and he would finish it.

Most people underestimated Jean-Paul because they only saw his most obvious powers of superspeed and flight. However there was another ability that Northstar possesed. By varying the rate of acceleration within his own molecules he could trigger a concussive blast of light from his body of intense power and brightness. He rarely used the power because it was very draining and actually hurt to use sometimes but the Brotherhood mutant had proven that they couldn't pull any punches with this guy.

As he flashed across the room JP extended his arms to embrace the mutant and felt his arm brush against something invisible yet tangible. Apparently Valeria was setting a forcefield around the guy, which would be perfect since it would help focus his blast and send it back towards Nassr, of course JP would be struck to but at that very moment he didn't care.

With his arms closing around Nassr Northstar closed his eyes and focused internally. He felt the various portions of his body and began to "rub" them together at conflicting speeds. Jean-Paul returned to real speed at the last moment so Nassr knew who it was that brought him down.

"Game over asshole." he said through gritted teeth. With that a concussive burst of light exploded outward from his body, its intensity matching that of a half-million candles as it ripped outward from his body and hopefully struck Nassr since he was trying to grasp him close while the blast released itself.

[nassr]

The sounds of blood curdling screams and maniacal laughter could be heard from inside the Pentagon. Nassr enjoyed killing these pathetic humans, slaughtering them like the animals they are. He believed that they deserved every bit of it. He was so caught up in his fun that he almost didn’t notice someone speeding towards him. Nassr turned to face the individual and was tackled by him. The impact of the hit knocked him into a wall, creating a few cracks on contact. He slowly picked himself up dusting off his shirt and popping his neck. ”Son of a bitch, big mistake.” The man wanted a fight so he sure as hell was going to get one. The young mutant removed his shirt and tossed it aside.

”You want a fight, then we do this the old way. No powers.” Just as he was about to attack the blonde man, the young lady appeared and started creating a force field around him. Soon after, that damn speedster showed back up. He now had to deal three individuals when originally he only wanted to fight one. So he was going to keep it that way. With a yell of power, Nassr released another powerful blast of wind around his body which allowed him to escape upwards from the force field and the speedster’s attack.

”Sentinels deal with the speedster and girl!” he commanded. ”The blonde is mine.” With that out of the way, the sentinels immediately turned their fire onto the indicated targets. Nassr burst forward, returning a tackle to the blonde and crashing them through a wall into another room. Once they crashed into the wall he began serving up a few punches to his face.

[Byakurai]

He watched as the man moved at amazing speeds with that armor on. Such power and animosity, it was something to be feared and admired. His his own agility he jumps to what looks like a drop kick. But instead he uses a lightning blast attack to propel him in air, into a back flip. Though with the opponent's speed and might his rib was bruised, and his shirt and skin cut by the blow. With a hand he quickly place over where he was hit, but never leaving his sight from the enemy. Eight years of training only got him this far? Or was it his morals the very thing that was holding his strength back?

He notices the girl had her back turned to him and made a forcefield to defend from the plane. This was his chance to strike her down. But could he do it? He debated it in his mind for a moment. He forms lightning around his fist charging up for a huge blast. Then a young girls voice cries out.

"Mommy! Mommy! Where are you?!"

The small but desperate voice called out. The young girl had tears covering her tiny face as she held a bear tightly in her arms. Confused, and twirling around in hopes of see her mom. Outside of that she seemed to be safe. But then falling debris form the plane Nassr force down came crashing, the young girl screams. His face turned back and forth as he had a really good shot at her. And the little girl who could be crushed at any moment.

He looks at he girl who mocked him and then back at the metal man. He nods the snarls. Firing at the debris moving closer to the girl. Pick her up and moved her to safety and tells her to run and find and of the policemen. She nods and runs off. Again he turns around and faces the man of metal, placing an hand over the now bleeding cut. With his other he makes a whip and cracks it multiple times at the armored man. Knowing full well he could counter it. This was merely a distraction tactic, he continues to crack the whip at Vom damme, keeping a good distance away.

"I am Byakurai! Remember my name!"

Sentiels

"Target Locked....Continue fire. Destory Pentagon. Main objective."

The sentiels continued to do damage ignoring Nassr's bots, whom were facing off with the Von damme bots. the blasted the area with their lazer cannons. Programmed to fly over, if destoryed, the pentgon and crush it that way.

"45 percent....Complete."

[Cannonball]

“Fine with me.“ Cannonball was about to attack again when Valeria showed up and attacked. He had thought she was dealing with the other one but something must have happened with him which brought her here. He really didn’t think to much on it and was some what happy that she was here to help worried something might happen to her. Before he could think to much on North Star showed up to help as well. But there attacks didn’t work and Nassr was tacking him through a wall.

After taking a few of the punches he knocked Nassr off him and got on his feet He wiped the blood off his lip, He might not know any fancy fighting but he could brawl he always use to fight the Cabot boy’s over one thing or another and most of the time he won even when he was out numbered. So this shouldn’t be to much harder he hoped but had a feeling this guy was going to cheat before to long. "Anyone ever tell you, you hit like a girl?" he said with a smirk before he went to hit him with a right hook then a left.

{{As neither person controlling Sentinel's has acknowledged attacks being made against them, staff have agreed that it shall be considered all attacks landed successfully

On a separate note, in order to move along the plot, each character may make 3 more posts to this thread and then it shall be ended, if it is not resolved in those 3 posts per person, staff will resolve it}}

Von Damme watched as his opponent, the one who wished to be known as "Byakurai" protected some young girl, Von Damme was not impressed. "Do you think this act will bring me to have mercy on you? If you wished to save lives, you would have warned the people in this building of the attack beforehand so they could have emptied it, or simply not attacked it in such a fashion at all. Saving one soul does not free you of the guilt of the dozens that have been killed, and no act of false heroism will save you from Von Damme!" he informed, walking forward with no fear for the electric whip, his armour would absorb it, just as it had earlier, just as it absorbed his own.

Von Damme moved again, closing the distance between Hiro and himself, bringing up his boot as he got close, aiming for what appeared to be his chest, but bringing it down hard towards his knee instead, a crippling blow if it succeeded, with the enhanced strength provided by the armour.

Meanwhile, the Von Damme bots, having blinded several Sentinels at this point had separated, soaring through the sky now at ramming speed, aiming for the waist, a well aimed strike, if it struck through, could tear a sentinel in half, it if broke at what was basically the crotch.

[valeria]

"Ugh, son of a...." Valeria held her tongue on the last work of that sentence. She slammed a fist into the palm of her hand trying to wrap her mind on exactly how the wind bastard managed to avoid their attacks. Maybe hers, but JP was moving faster than the human eye could follow. It was like the Chewbacca Defense. It didn't make sense! Now here this guy was taking the lives of people who had no way of defending themselves. Yet when it was 3 on one, he wanted to duck out and sick the sentinels out on herself and JP. Well that was just great. Bitch better run.

"Kick his ass, Mr Gutherie!" she called back to her teacher and then turned back to the Sentinel coming towards her. She ran through the air, creating invisible towers beneath her feet to act as stepping stones. "If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests!" she screamed thrusting another wave of invisible force to try and topple the robot.

[northstar]

He missed. Somehow, but an impossible twist of fate Northstar, literally one of the fastest things on the planet, hadn't been going fast enough to catch that jerk Nassr and somehow he had managed to escape at the last moment. While his mind was stil trying to figure out what happened in between the moments when Nassr managed to dodge him and his concussive blast released there was very little he could contemplate as to how the opposing mutant had managed to avoid him completely.

Unfortunately this left Northstar trapped inside Valeria's forcefield unleashing his best offensive weapon on nothing but the air around him. Light poured out of his of Jean-Paul's body but so did pain also. This wasn't something he was exactly experienced with and right now his focus had been distracted but what he had witnessed Nassr doing to all these innocent people. Couple that with the fact the forcefield which was suppose to contain the jerk was helping to focus his concussive blast into a smaller area meant that Northstar was in trouble. The light doubled back onto his form after he released it and injured him even more. Even though the attack only lasted for a few moments it did enough.

As the light died down Jean-Paul was on the ground trying to rise up off his hands and knees, his uniform was tattered in places and he could barely breath due to the strain it had taken to use that aspect of his power and felt sore from head to toe. He knew the battle was still continuing around him but at that very moment the Hellion's Speedster was standing still and could barely move because it hurt too much at the moment.

All the young Canadian could do was look up as Valeria engaged the Sentinels and managed to utter one word past his lips.

"Shennanigans" He could only hope nothing came at him right now because for the moment Jean-Paul wasn't going anywhere.
