"I'll get you out of here, just hold on" Kim whispered to him.
Looking up at Havok, her anger raised and her hands began to glow with power.
"Get him down from there and this is over. Keep going and I will expose you for what you are."

Sinister rose from his seat and raised a hand, the two prelates from before stepped forward, flanking Tempest.
"Tempest go back to your quaters. I know this waste of genetics is you friend but he must take his punishment. He has twenty five left."
Lucifuge leaned his head as close as he could to her.
"Go, I can take it."

Tempest stood her ground. "No. I'm not leaving without him. Why should he be punished? When your Head boy there has done far, far worse."

Kim walked towards Havok.
"Do you want me to tell the sordid little story Alex? About you betraying me, and your own kind at the same time?"
Watching Lucifuge being punished was tipping her over the edge.
"You disgust me Alex, I can't believe I ever thought we had something special"

"Titaor," Icefire began. "has superhuman strength. He is also capable of draining the energy of his victims through physical contact, to the point of death. Therefore try to attack him from a distance. His stamina is proportional with his strength so he is very slow."

Sinister raised an eyebrow.
"What are you saying?"

"What I'm saying is...let him go. Or I expose him for what he truly is" Kim sneered..turning back to Havok her top lip curled in disgust.
"So..what's it to be Alex. Vengeance or your career?"

"Oh," Dani observed. She'd been hoping for a workout, but that obviously wasn't going to happen. Well, she might as well learn something, so during this exercise, she'd try to use her powers while moving. Usually, she had to be stationary, because of the focus required.

Clearing her mind, she waited for the simulation to begin.

Havok narrowed his eyes at Tempest and turned to Sinister. He was too much of an asset to be lost.
"Let Lucifuge go sire, I think he's had enough."
Sinister nodded.
"Very well." He raised a hand and the manicles unlocked freeing Lucifuge. He fell to the ground on his knees with a heavy sigh., his back covered in red lines.
"Leave us now!" Sinister said with a stern voice.
Lucifuge slowly got up and tumbled out of the room, conituing down the hall.

Icefire He pressed a button in the computers. After he began typing codes on the keyboard, creating an artifical Titaor in the center of the room, his powers slightly diminished. Still he was a formidable foe but he knew they could take him down. Icefire watched from the control room and observed.

Tempest smirked at Havok as she turned to rush after Lucifuge.
"John! Wait up big guy"
Catching up with him she put his arm over her shoulder and her arm around his waist. His weight bearing down on her, but she had to help him.
"Your place or mine" she said half smiling.

He groaned and used her as support.
"Which ever's closest" he mumbled.
"Why do I get the hard stuff..."
He dragged his legs along, working through the pain.

"You're just lucky I guess" she tried to smile through a grimace as she helped to carry him. "We can head to mine, it's the closer" as she eased there way to her room.

The door opened and John fell, face first, onto the bed. He let out a long drawn out groan, his naked torso covering the bed with ease. His back bled a little and John picked his head up.
"You're too good to me Kim."

Kim shut the door over and locked it just incase. She turned round to see Lucifuge sprawled on her bed, the wounds on his back raw and painful looking.
"You've always been good to me. Besides, you warned me about Alex. I never listened, call it a thank you. Now let me get some water, you need those wounds tended too"
She hurried into the bathroom and filled a small basin up with warm water and grabbed a sponge and a towel.
She came back to the main room and slowly bent down on the floor next to the bed.

As she water the wounds he hissed slightly in pain, the stinging sention of water touching his wounds.
"I need a pay rise, I take way too many blows for this place, and for what?! So they can torture me! I kill humans by the dozen!"

Dani circled the perimeter of the room as the simulation activated, trying to focus on the replication of Titaor, but the other mutant's attacks meant that her own efforts were futile. Finally she gave up and sat crosslegged in a corner, observing the melee. Titaor was gradually weakening, but at this rate, the free-for-all would continue for hours.

Dani liked efficiency, and efficiency meant teamwork.

She shook her head and caught the attention of two of the mutants, beckoning them over to her.

"This isn't working," she stated. "Obviously."

Phil, who had the electrical powers, frowned at her. "Well, what else can we do?"

Dani smiled.
