Chapter 11: 5 is Better Than 1
"Frost we have got to stop meeting like this." Standing across from me was Emma Frost. I have a meeting with Xavier later today yet as soon as i come to my office I find Emma sitting in my fourth favorite chair. Next to her was a woman with dark hair sitting in my third favorite chair. "To what do i owe the disturbance this morning?"
"Cut your shit Nyxxus" Emme jabs back. I put a sly smile on my face watching her have an internal struggle. I decide to get serious seeing this wasnt something simple. "I need your assistance."
"What kind of assisstance are you referring to?"
She walks over to my desk and sits herself along the edge and purrs "Just because i cannot read your mind does not mean i cannot peer into the minds around you Invincible." Dammit i cant believe i forgot that. After a while of Blocking out both Xavier and Jean i just put telepaths out of my mind.
With a heavy sigh i look at her and ask "What do you need Frost?"
"When i first started my company Frost Internationals didnt really take off. But it had potential and that potential caught the interests of a certain group of people." She starts as shes walking around the office now.
"The HellFire Club." I state back.
"Shaw and his Queen Selene made me an offer and I took it. They have stakes in my company but its all legal. Now i could take the risk and seperate myself from them. I have confidence Frost Internationals will survive and prosper again. But"
"They have something on you. No you wouldn't be careless enough to leave a trace that can be tied to you." She started smirking from my compliment "Maybe someone?" Her eyes flinch for a second and it hits me. The only person they could have would be....
"My daughters technically." My eyes widen as i realize the Frost sisters are still alive. I have to get all 5. The 5 of them together are a hive of telepaths stronger than any other telepath par Jean Grey hyped on Phoenix essence. "Esme, Phoebe, Celeste, Sophie, and Mindee. Five genetic clones of me with my telepathic powers. I've been keeping my eye on them since The Club got their hands on them. I didnt have the confidence to get them all out alive, however..."
"However you think OverWatch can? Hmmmmm" i pretend to be in a thinking state for while im just counting to 70 in my head. "Natalia" i call out as my Black Widow materialized into the room dropping her invisibility. Frost and her guest are startled they didnt catch her earlier. "Get me Selene, tell her its important and now please. "
Natalia disappeared from my sight as i turn back to the two shocked ladies. "Who was that? Where did she come from? How do you know that sorceress?"
Dodging the million questions a minute i feel the space ripple as Selene pops into the room. "This better be good Damien, i was in the middle of something." She looks around the room stopping on Frost then back to me. "Oh i see, she came to you for help after learning your identity by reading the mimds of those around her? Clever.
I spend a few minutes learning everything i could about the facilities the girls are in. Hearing them put collars on the girls i look at Selene who shrugged and said she was only asked to enchant the rooms to stop telepathy.
Emma looks visbly worried and i now knew time is often the essence. At any point in time 3 of the girls could go rogue and the last two get their heads blown off. "Natalia" this time when she materializes no one is surprised "Inform the WatchTower i want building schematics of their prison. Take Kitty, Kurt, Domino and Laura and go get those girls. Disable the alarms and security. None of them are allowed to die because we made a stupid mistake."
Natalia clicks her heels and straightens her back "Yes sir" she phased out of existence and Frost relaxes in the chair saying "Thank you."
Turning my head towards her i nod with a smile and then look at her friend "Ms. Darkholme i hope you dont mind me sending your son on this mission."
She starts chuckling before her skin starts turning blue and her hair turns a bright shade of orange. "Please call me Raven and no, Kurt is no longer the little boy who needed to hide from the world. Ive see his and Anna's deeds in the news and as a mother im so proud. *Sigh* If only things were different. But im here to ask for a favor as well."
"A favor from THE mystique? How intriguing. What does Magnetos little plaything have that she wants from me?"
"I AM NO ONE'S PLAYTHING" she exclaimed slamming her hand onto the desk. She takes a letter out of her titty magical space and passed it me. "that letter is information about Magnetos plan to eradicate human life and restart the world as a mutant paradise."
Taking the letter and reading it over i must say im not surprised. Due to the old mans way of thinking i knew he'd try something eventually.
"Why me then?" I ask holding the letter up. Shes never known to be trusted. Always had an ulterior motive that normally benefits herself.
"Charles is an old friend but his idleness will be his undoing. Eric has let hatred and vengeance take control of him. What youre doing, bringing it all to the light. Making the public not only accept us but even cheer for us. I want in."
Hmmm i dont really need her for OverWatch. But that doesnt mean Laura and Domino cant use her talents in other situations. Plus push comes to shove she'll be great at proving my identity.
"We'll discuss this afterwards. I know your kind Raven. You and Frost are both prideful women who always has an ulterior motive. But ill extend an olive branch and see where it goes." I reach out my hand and she grabs it with a smile "Welcome to OverWatch Raven"
Now where is Xavier?
