????????? ?????? my name is Shadow Walker Shadow Walker ran through the wilderness of Genosha in the general direction Warp had pointed out to her. She hoped she could find Amp in time to either go with him or talk him out of it. She started to practice her power by going through things as she ran.

Alexander William Diaz a.k.a. Warp Warp sighed as Shadow Walker left on her own. He sat down on the edge of the couch where Blink lay and figured, screw his promise for waiting for Amp. Amp already hurt Blink, and his hand hurt, and he hand no power at the moment, and he was in a bad mood. Dialing Magneto he said, "Sir, we have a situation. Amp has escaped."
"So, I've heard," Magneto muttered.
"Blink's doing, not mine," Warp sighed. "Anyways, apparently the kid can drain powers because right now I am kind of useless. He knocked out Blink. I'm in her apartment. I would guess he's headed to the jets... probably to try to see my sister. Of course if he knows where the X-men live that's news to me."
"Thank-you," He said, "I'll go clean up this mess myself. When Blink wakes up, let her know she needs to see me personally about her involvement in this. I don't have patience for this sort of thing." At that the phone went dead.
Warp sighed and closed his eyes leaning back some before he glanced at the pink haired teleporter: she was in trouble now. He sort of felt bad about ratting her out, but Magneto would have found out it was her eventually, anyways. Better to get it over with now. To pass the time he tried to create a force field around his hand as he waited so he could heal his hand.

Dmitri Kovac a.k.a. Amp As the jet's engine began to slowly start doubts began to rise in Amp's mind. Could he even find the X-men. Weren't the supposed to be somewhere in the state of New York? New York was a big state, not Texas big but still big. And the fuel would only take him so far. A pit of dread began to form in his stomach as he pushed the code to open the hanger and it didn't open.
"Of course," Amp muttered, swearing. Warp wasn't a moron. He wouldn't leave the same code for months to open the jet hanger. Would he be able to gun it? Talk about scratching the paint and maybe damaging the image.
"Okay, Amp- Dmitri," he reminded himself (if he was going to be an X-men he was going to have to go back to his old name, right?), "on the count of ten. One, two..."

????????? ?????? my name is Shadow Walker She heard the roar of the engine from outside of the hanger. Shadow Walker bit her lip wondering what to do. She tried opening the door to the hanger but it seemed locked or blocked somehow. Then again it may be best not to confront him directly, he would have shut down her power on sight. She knew she had one chance to get things right. It was obvious he wanted to escape and join the X-Men but what could she offer to sway him. At this rate the whole island will be after him in mere minutes. Can he really cancel them all out? Surely there has to be some limitations on his power. Then again she did use her power from the middle of the ocean to get over to Genosha. That's it! She could offer a better way off the island and where he needs to go instead of drawing all of this attention. She took a deep breath, she knew she had to get on that plane but how? So far she had been able to shadow teleport, or whatever, successfully if she knew where she was going. There wasn't much time. She dropped into the darkness and looked around, total darkness. She was afraid, how was she going to get out. Light she looked up and that was what she saw she felt herself going up and she got a better sense of where the light was coming from. They are shapes of places she could enter from. She started looking for him. There was a shadow that seem to keep moving. It's his. Just as Amp counted three entered "Amp please stop! This is madness!"

Dmitri Kovac a.k.a. Amp Amp swore turning, his voice sharp as he demanded, "What do you want?"
He narrowed his eyes at her, "I can drain your power again and without your power you will be easy to take in a fight. Hell, even if I hadn't used Blink as a hostage I could have taken Warp on and won without his power. Get the Hell off this jet."
"I'm leaving. If you are still on this when I get over the ocean or Africa I'm dumping you there."

????????? ?????? my name is Shadow Walker "Please Amp, just... Just hear me out. By now Warp has called Magneto or whatever, sending all the homo-superior residents your way. To top it all off you are making yourself an easy target by busting through the door. Will the plane even get that far if it gets damaged after pulling that stunt? How many powers can you drain? Can you really drain everyone on this island? What Warp has been doing, locking you up like that is not right. No one should have to live like a prisoner in his own home. There's a better way. I could get us there and it would draw less attention. They won't know until it's too late but we have to plan this carefully. Please Amp... I want to help. But, I won't stop you if you really think you can crash through this door and go across the sea in one piece. Despite the many homo-superiors that may get in the way."

Dmitri Kovac a.k.a. Amp "Aren't you Warp's new pet or whatever?" Amp snapped back. "I want to join the X-men, support Cassie, Warp's sister, who by the way Warp is furious with and resents even though he loves her. Hell, everyone loves her."
He was angry because he knew she was right. Draining Warp took a lot of effort as is. Hell, if Magneto came after Amp directly, Amp wouldn't stand a chance. Completely draining someone's power took a whole lot more energy than amplifying someone's power and he had the luck to have to drain Blink, Shadow Walker, and Warp who all were walking power houses.
That was when he felt the strength of metal controlling power coming his way. Magneto wasn't here yet but would be soon. "You'll get me out? You promise? Because if you do and Warp or Magneto finds out you're kicked out of Genosha for good most likely. You'll be branded a traitor," Amp said his eyes wild with fear and hope. "Because if you don't keep to your promise I will make you regret it..." His last statement sounded almost broken. After all, Amp was only a sixteen year old kid when it came down to it.

????????? ?????? my name is Shadow Walker "I will hold true to my promise and will make sure you'll get to the X-Men. Under one condition. I respect your decision to be part of the X-Men. You have to respect my decision to become part of the Brotherhood. When I see the opportunity to get you over there like the next mission. I'll take you. Warp won't know until it's too late. If anything I'd like to make it look like Blink did it. As nice the lady may be I didn't like the way she treated you nor did I like the lack of concern from earlier."

Dmitri Kovac a.k.a. Amp Amp shook his head and took a deep breath and began to shut down the engines. "Don't make it look like Blink did it. She'll be in enough trouble about this attempted escape. Besides, get to know her she has her reasons for being like she is. Warp can only protect her so much from Magneto's wrath."
He sighed and glanced over his shoulder and sighed, "Speaking of which: Magneto is coming. I sense his power's presence." Amp got out of the pilot's seat and said, "I'll let you get to be a hero." He took the fire extinguisher and handed it to her. "Go ahead. Bash me in the back of the head before Magneto shows up. He's not going to buy that I willingly gave up."
"It is only Blink, which is kind of ironic considering, who figured out that my love for Cassandra changed-evolved- a few months ago," Amp said turning around with a smile. "I'm a lot more rational about my obsession for her, believe it or not. Well, ready when you are."

????????? ?????? my name is Shadow Walker Shadow Walker felt relieved as Amp turned off the engine. "Very well we'll discuss the details later." When he gave her the fire extinguisher she wasn't sure if she could do it. She really cares for him, she let out a sigh knowing that it would be best in the bigger picture. She swings as hard as she could to the back of his head rendering him unconcious. As he fell she stepped back a little oh my what have I done? she dropped the fire extinguisher and went to his side. She touched his hair a little. If only I could tell you how I feel about you. But it won't matter now... or later *sighs*. Like you to Cassie I will help you and support you if it will make you happy.She lifted his arms and tried to lift him up. He was heavy probably from working out so much she thought. She wasn't sure if she could take more than one person through the shadows yet, but she had to learn sooner or later. She had to, she made the promise, how could I make such a promise if I haven't tested that part. She closed her eyes and tried to sink both of them by making the hole wide enough for both of them to go through. Shadow Walker emerged from darkness of the trees near by. She leaned on the wall of the hanger and looked around expecting others to come.

Alexander William Diaz a.k.a. Warp Warp left a note for Blink once he recovered his powers and could heal his hand and headed towards the hanger immediately where he ran into Magneto. Quietly, he followed the leader of Genosha, looking a bit lost when as they were outside the building of the hanger appeared Shadow Walker with Amp in her hands. Magneto gestured quietly towards the two and Warp sighed and said with a bemused smile, "Uh, this is Shadow Walker, she's the newest recruit for the Brotherhood. She can travel through shadows and manipulate shadows. I've seen the shadow traveling, some, but not the shadow manipulation..."
"I'm impressed," Magneto said with a small smile, before adding, "She was able to do what you failed to do. Maybe she should be the next leader of the Brotherhood."
Warp frowned and replied coldly, "There was sort of a hostage situation..."
Magneto held out a hand and said, "Hello, Shadow Walker. Thank-you for your help. Sorry for the mix up with Amp. Sometimes, homo-superiors can get misguided by the wrong people. He has an unfortunate condition. We try to protect him. I am Magneto. Welcome to Genosha, my home and sanctuary for homo-superiors. I would hope that Warp has been on his best behavior, considering."
Magneto sounded like a concerned father rebuking an errant son more than anything else. Meanwhile, Warp grimaced slightly as he tried to hold a smile. At least Amp was apprehended. The last thing he needed was Amp with the X-men, especially considering the crazy kid could drain powers.

????????? ?????? my name is Shadow Walker "M-Magneto?" she said in awe and took his hand "I've heard so much about you. Th-thank you for welcoming to this beautiful island of yours. Warp has been good. He's saved my life. I washed up on shore as of yesterday and Warp found me, tended my wounds and allowed me to spend the night at his place. He has been a very good host and I hope I have been a good guest.". The last part she said cautiously more toward Warp. She hoped that pointing out that Warp saved her life would ease the tension a little.

Alexander William Diaz a.k.a. Warp "Actually, Blink found her washed up on the beach and called me to help out," Warp said quietly.
Magneto nodded and there was a snap when Blink appeared behind the two. Her head was bowed slightly her pink hair covering most of her face, "Warp said to find you two..." she began in almost a whisper.
"Good, your power is back to you," Magneto said calmly. "Can you get us to Amp's apartment so we are no longer making a scene, please?"
"Yes, sir," She said. As they disappeared, reappearing in Amp's apartment.
Warp glanced at Blink who still looked unsteady on her feet and he hissed, "Maybe you should sit down?" He glanced over at Amp and then Magneto and sighed: what a mess. And, in his opinion it was all his sister's fault.
"Sorry, now we can speak a little freer," said Magneto smiling at Shadow Walker. "Again, thank-you for your help. You are the hero of the day."

????????? ?????? my name is Shadow Walker As Blink appeared, it looked like she was in terrible trouble with Magneto. She kind of felt bad for wanting to frame her earlier. They got teleported to Amp's apartment she dragged him to the couch. She responded to Magneto's comment, "He... had to be stopped..." She watched as Blink took a seat. It looked like she was still being affected by what Amp did to her.

Alexander William Diaz a.k.a. Warp "Exactly. Some homo-superiors fail to realize that their can be no bridge of friendship between homo-sapiens and homo-superiors. Tolerance was never in the homo-sapien DNA. Thankfully, we are a bit more evolved as homo-superiors. Or at least most of us are to the point we understand that we are no longer the same species as homo-sapiens," Magneto began with a smile at Amp and then pointedly at Blink.
"But of course," Blink said carefully her brown eyes narrowed, "I never claimed a bridge could be made between the two species." Warp rolled his eyes: he wanted to slap her. He would if he could get away with it.
"I know," Magneto answered, "I know you would do anything to protect Genosha. After all, you were on the first boat over here, right Blink? No one had to tell you about homo-sapiens and their hatred." Turning gears he asked Warp, "Is the two bedroom apartment across from you still free?"
"Yes," Warp said.
"Good," Magneto said cutting off any questions Warp may have had. "Blink and Shadow Walker can stay there together as roommates. Since, you are willing to do anything to help Genosha, Blink, I am sure you would be willing to offer your help to the Brotherhood if your powers are ever needed. So, I expect you to start training. Amp and Warp can train both you, Blink, and you, Shadow Walker." He smiled at Shadow Walker, "Of course considering you bested Amp today, maybe you can teach Warp a few things."
"Blink I want your priority to be your training now. I am taking you off your other duties including tutor so please treat this seriously." At that he turned with a flick of his cloak and said, "Have a good day. I'll leave all the details to you Warp." And the metal vault door of Amp's apartment flew off as Magneto exited before sealing again. Blink buried her head into her hands and Warp muttered, "Well, that could have gone worse."
Blink glanced up and snapped, "Warp: shut-up." Becoming a Brotherhood, even a Brotherhood on call, was a horrible sentence to her. Better than the alternative of being kicked off Genosha which would have killed her but not much better and Warp knew it or at least should.
