30 Chapter 29 - Extermination [2]

[January of 2012]

[°New York City°]

3rd Person P.O.V

Andrew, Azazel, Angel and Sean quickly reached the former's hideout as they land in front of the house. The neighborhood is silent as darkness embraced the road bringing a peaceful tranquility to it.

Opening the door. Andrew yawned sleepily while taking a cola in the fridge as he immediately plopped to the sofa. He groaned comfortably as he drank the whole can in a matter of seconds. "Ahh~"

Andrew then turned his head to the three who are still standing at the side and motioned them to sit on the empty chairs.

Azazel sat without hesitation while the two looked around for a bit and eventually sat down.

"So. What do you want?" Andrew asked casually as he stood up and took five cola in the fridge once more and came back to the sofa.

"I intend to follow you. Is that alright?" Azazel spoke without hesitation.

Andrew looks at him for a bit and then used his Telepathy. He suddenly chuckled as he smiled scarily to the long-lived mutant "You intend to control me?"

Whoosh!

"Wha–!" Azazel was shocked and was ready to teleport away but then a hand grasped his neck and lifted him from his sitting position.

Andrew used his Telepathy to mess with his mind and not let him teleport as he stands in front of the guy while grasping his neck. Azazel tried freeing his neck desperately as he can't breath.

"I can end your life right here and now. So. Know. Your. Place."

After saying that. Andrew dropped the red-skinned mutant and went back to his couch. Sean and Angel was nervous through the whole scene and just kept their silence.

Azazel looked at Andrew from the ground while rubbing his neck as he breathed in and out to catch his breath.

Andrew who was back to drinking his cola realized something fundamental from himself. Everytime that a normal human crossed his path, he would then kill them or leave in broken pieces. But everytime a mutant a crossed him, he would just instinctively leave in one piece.

He doesn't know if he's becoming some kind of a mutant patriot or this is because he's also a mutant now or it's just he knows the true story of mutants. But swears to himself right now that he would stop this kinds of thoughts from messing with his decisions.

Andrew then looked at the Neyaphem who was rubbing his neck while looking at him. He raised an eyebrow as the guy still didn't teleport away just like what he was about to do before.

Azazel then stood up from the ground and then fixed his clothes as he brought his right fist on his chest and bowed gentlemanly. "Plear.. Ahem! Please. Forgive me for my misconduct just now. But now. Intend to follow you genuinely."

Andrew made a quick sweep to Azazel's mind and then found him to be truly genuine by now and also found something regarding the reason why the latter was captured but he didn't immediately mentioned it. He then waved his hand in the air as he spoke casually "No worries. All is forgiven."

Azazel nodded with relief as he sat once more. Andrew then turned to the two "You two. What do you want?"

"M-me. I want to go to that place where mutants are being protected and taught." Sean Cassidy raised his hand and spoke with nervousness.

Andrew then turned to Angel who spoke immediately "I-i want to also go in that place.."

Azazel scoffed hearing them as he deduced that they are maybe talking about that place called Xavier's School for Gifted Youth.

Andrew was silent while looking at them. He then suddenly stood up and turned to Azazel. "Let's go. We're gonna fetch someone."

He then walked and to the now standing up Azazel and placed his hand on his shoulder. Andrew turned to the two and said "Stay here. We'll be back in a while."

Andrew then prepared himself as this is the first time he's gonna experience jumping through space itself. But a few seconds passed and nothing happened.

He turned to Azazel who was looking at him with a confused look. "What?"

"I.. don't know where we're going so..." Azazel hesitantly said as he carefully chose his words lest he got choked again.

"Oh!" Andrew face-palmed his stupidity inwardly as he then searched the place from his memory and then transferred it to Azazel's mind.

Azazel then nodded as he and Andrew disappeared in puff of red smoke that produced a "bamf" sound.

Sean and Angel looked at each other and then decided as they went towards the fridge to get something to eat.

—-—-—

"HaHaHaHa~! Die! HaHa." Illyana laughs happily as she swings her soulsword to another soldier who was immediately slice in burning half.

She's currently inside a Hydra Facility as she slaughtered her way in. A bang was heard and a speeding bullet that was precisely aiming towards her eyes was stopped by her hand.

Illyana blurred from her position as she ran with amazing speed towards the one who shot her. That soldier immediately tried backing away as he saw the mutant disappeared but he then found his surroundings suddenly turning upside down as he died.

Illyana catches the falling head and held it in her hand. She looked around and then forcefully throws the head towards another soldier as she ran towards them once again.

..

..

Andrew and Azazel appeared inside the facility as the former smirked at the performance of the blonde mutant.

"Oi! Illyana!" Andrew called out and immediately managed to grab the attention of the girl.

"Huff~ Huff~" Illyana's ears twitches at that voice as her head quickly whipped to that direction while breathing a little heavy.

"Hey, Andrew!"

The soldiers who saw the two suddenly appear inside the building immediately fired at them which was blocked by a force-field that Andrew conjured.

Andrew waved his hand and all those soldiers hiding all slammed at the wall behind their backs while their bones all cracked as they lost consciousness.

He then turned back to Illyana and saw her looking at him "What? Finish it already."

Illyana nodded and then disappeared from her position as she tried finishing her test quickly.

Azazel was silent throughout the whole conversation as he just stands behind Andrew while observing the one sided battle.

Ten Minutes Later

All the soldiers of about a hundred was now slaughtered as their corpses littered the ground as their blood flows continuously.

Illyana stands in front of Andrew while stabilizing her breathing as she took a curious peek to the red-skinned mutant behind the latter.

Azazel who saw her looking at him inquiringly, stepped forward and bowed slightly as he introduced himself "Hi Miss. I am Azazel. A new ally for sir Andrew here."

Illyana just nodded and introduced herself "I'm Illyana" while she turned back to Andrew "All the mutants here are already dead so.."

Andrew did a quick spread of his domain and just nodded as said "You passed."

A wide smile bloomed on Illyana's face as she nodded.

Andrew then turned to Azazel and transferred an image in his mind as he placed his hand on his shoulders and then beckoned Illyana to do the same.

Illyana was quick to realize that the red-skinned mutant must have an ability similar to that of Kurt Wagner as she excitedly placed her palm on his other soldier. This was the first that she's gonna experience this.

Bamf!

The three disappeared in a cloud of red smoke while producing that sound.

—-—-—

St. John Allerdyce also known as Pyro was quick as he evades a bullet with an amazing display of agility as he swept his hand to the front.

Whoosh!

A big stream of light blue fire swept to the front and quickly burnt the soldiers firing at him to a crisp.

He whipped to the back and a steam of blue fire once again came out of his hand and swallowed the one trying to sneak behind him.

Ra-ta-ta-ta-ta!

Pyro ran in the middle of the bullet rain as he evaded it with good speed. Unfortunately. His battle experience wasn't as much as one "cure" bullet managed to pierce his leg as he immediately lost control of the flames he was controlling.

His eyes widened in shock as he quickly moved to cover and hide behind a wall while breathing heavily.

"Shit. Shit. Shit!" Pyro continously cursed as he tried using his power to no avail. He breathed heavily as he took a peek to the soldiers but then hid again as a rain bullets faced him.

'Is this my end?!' He couldn't help but think but he immediately removed that 'No. I still have this strength given by Andrew.. I can do this..'

Though that his X-Gene was temporarily deactivated – which he doesn't know – his body still remained the same, which was quite powerful if he just know how to really use it.

He then prepared himself as he dashed from his hiding place but he was faced with a rain of bullet that was too close to evade. "Fuck.."

The bullets all slammed at the different parts of his body but it all just ricocheted.

Pyro looked at this phenomenon for a bit as realization dawned on him "I am bulletproof.. Fuck! How can I forget that.."

Arriving at that thought and seeing the wide eyes of the soldiers who saw their bullets bouncing off from him. He smiled and the slaughter began.

""AHHH~""

Fifteen Minutes Later

All the soldiers where already dead as Pyro stands in the middle of their corpes while breathing heavily.

Bamf!

A red smoke appeared as Andrew, Illyana and Azazel materialized a few feet away from Pyro.

Pyro was alerted seeing devil-like being appearing in front of him but then he calmed down as he saw Andrew and Illyana. He breathed a sigh of relief as he walked to the group.

Illyana saw his downcast look and inquired "What happened?"

"I.. L-lost my power.." Pyro spoke as if he can't believe it while clenching his fist.

"Oh.. Don't worry it's only temporary. It'll come back later.." Andrew waved his hand as he slightly walked and looked at the corpses. Most of them died in a physical brutal way.

"You finished them using your physical strength?" He asked Pyro who nodded. "Not bad. You passed."

Pyro nodded gratefully as he then gazed to Azazel.

"He's a new recruit. He also wants what's for the best of the mutantkind and would be a big help in your goals." Andrew explained as Azazel slightly bowed to Pyro.

Pyro shook hands with Azazel as he nodded firmly "Its nice to meet you. I'm John."

Clap!

"Okay! Get what you want here John so we can go home already." Andrew clapped as he spoke.

Pyro nodded and began running to the inner most of the building to find the experimented mutants.

A Few Moments Later

Pyro was lone as he came back to the group and seemed to be gritting his teeth in anger. He spoke "They're all dead.. They killed them all the moment i stepped inside the building.."

"Hmm. We can't do anything about that anymore so let's just go." Andrew said and placed his hand to Azazel's shoulder once more followed by Illyana and Pyro as they disappeared in cloud of red smoke.

Bamf!

—-—

They appeared in front of the eating Sean and Angel who immediately stopped what they were doing.

Pyro was a bit disoriented from the teleportation but quickly recovered as he looked at the two unfamiliar face.

Illyana on the other hand quickly focused her gaze to Angel Salvadore with a serious look while turning to look at Andrew.

Andrew didn't entertain the unusual emotion that his [empathy] picked up as he motioned for the two to stand up.

"You two want to go to baldies place?" Andrew asked.

Angel and Sean was a bit confused but Pyro then said "Xavier's School" which cleared their confusion as they nodded.

Andrew then turned back to Azazel and waved his hand in front of the latter's head as he spoke seeing his confused look "It's a mind cloak that will protect your mind from Telepaths."

He then transferred the image of the front of the School to the mutant's mind as he then plopped to the couch.

Andrew then remembered something and then removed this place's memory from the mind of Sean and Angel as they lost consciousness and slumped to the ground.

Azazel understood what his job was and touched the two on the ground as they disappeared.

Illyana and Pyro also sat and was about to asked but Andrew beat them to it "That two doesn't have the mindset and will to go for the same goal you two have, so its better for them to be there."

""Oh.."" Pyro nodded in understanding while Illyana nodded while unusually breathing a sigh of relief.

Azazel came back in the next second and stood to his previous location while saying "It's done."

Andrew nodded as he stood up, ready to go back to his room to rest but then he remembered something and turned back to Azazel "You can't have that look if you want to stay with us.. Change it.. For now."

Azazel nodded as his skin began morphing into normal human skin tone and his tail then tucked itself inside his pants.

Andrew nodded and climbing the stairs to the second floor while waving his hand and yawning as he messed with the mind of the owner of the house once again to accommodate Azazel.
