In Other Words, Hold My Hand...

The Dark Phoenix was rapidly descending back towards Earth, and London.

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:09 pm

And rising from the ground towards her were Nailah, accompanied by a flock of ravens.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:10 pm

"Move."

Harsh. Simple. Power.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:13 pm

"You dealt with her. We felt it," came the disjointed chorus of psychic voices from the flock.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:14 pm

"Yes."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:16 pm

"It's over, Mira."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:17 pm

"No. It is not."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:24 pm

"You can feel the movements below, can't you? His attentions pulled away for an instant. His aegis falters. His troops see that he can be wounded..."

"It is enough. He cannot hold them together now."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:29 pm

"One man. One man is nothing."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:38 pm

"As opposed to one woman?" she asks with a pointed look.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:40 pm

"One woman? I am what was, what is. What will be. The black angel. Chaos-Bringer! I AM POWER!"

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:42 pm

"You are forgetting what brought you here..."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:44 pm

"Forgetting who you are..."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:45 pm

"I am forgetting no such thing.

Altamira to Phoenix to Dark Phoenix. A progression as inevitable as death."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:49 pm

"As inevitable as hers?" she asks, glancing at the sundered satellite up in the sky.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:51 pm

"Ask not for pity from the Dark Phoenix, my dear. There is none in her."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:53 pm

"Pity isn't what she's asking."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 3:59 pm

"No mercy, either."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 4:06 pm

"You think we are scared and asking to be spared?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 4:10 pm

"It does not matter what you think or do not think. It matters not what you want or do not want."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 4:11 pm

"Then look to the reason you struck her down. Look to your fallen acolyte..."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 4:12 pm

"All in it's time, Samantha. All in it's time."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 4:57 pm

"More important matters to attend to?" she asks, quirking an eyebrow.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:13 pm

"I am not done here."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:16 pm

"What can you inflict upon them that they haven't already done themselves?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:19 pm

"The Void."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:19 pm

"And here you said the Phoenix was without mercy..."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:25 pm

"You've done enough."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:34 pm

"I have not. This place still exists."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:36 pm

"And what you would do is better than they deserve."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:37 pm

"I am the first person who wants to see this world burn and if it was within my power it might but I will not have this on your conscience."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:41 pm

"Oh, you would not have it, would you? Then leave."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:52 pm

"Enough people have fallen victim to this place, I will not let it claim you too."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:55 pm

"Did YOU not call me here? Do not make me laugh, Nailah. You can't have your cake and eat it, too."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 6:00 pm

"Laughter would be a welcome sound..."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 6:02 pm

"She had to perish or we all would have. And while it may have been you who struck the blow it was Altamira who answered my call."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 6:15 pm

"There is only one. You can't pull us in twain. There never was a separation. We are the Phoenix, and our judgment is final. No laughter can be had in this place."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 6:16 pm

"I think he hoped otherwise. Look where his faith in you got him..."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 6:20 pm

"You're as much Altamira as she was."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 6:52 pm

"Yes. I AM." she said, with a meaningful look.
