The group emerges from the portal, their eyes adjusting to the new surroundings. They find themselves standing in the dark, chaotic realm of Havik's Citadel. The air is thick and stagnant, the oppressive atmosphere a stark contrast to the world they left behind.
Johnny glances around, his voice laced with sarcasm.
Johnny: So, this is Havik's humble abode, huh?
X-23's voice is serious and determined, her eyes sweeping the surroundings cautiously.
X-23: Keep your eyes open... we're here to stop Havik for Y/N and the realms.
Johnny nods, his sarcastic veneer giving way to a more focused expression.
Johnny: Alright, let's get this done.
The group takes a moment to survey their surroundings, their gazes sweeping over the chaotic and menacing architecture of Havik's Citadel.
Johnny lets out an impressed whistle.
Johnny: Well, gotta admit, Havik ain't exactly a fan of Feng Shui.
Gambit's words draw a chuckle from the group, the mention of past memories lightening the atmosphere, if only slightly.
Gambit Y/N: Gee. RemindsmeofthatonetimewhentheX-Mansionexploded.
Johnny snorts, his usual smirk returning.
Johnny: Yeah, that was a hell of a day.
Then, suddenly, Sektor's sensors detect something.
Sektor: Movement detected. North direction.
X-23's eyes narrow as she listens to Sektor's announcement, her muscles tensing.
X-23: Must be where Geras is at.
Scorpion nods, agreeing with her deduction.
Scorpion: Let's move, then.
Emperor Rain's cry of warning comes just in time, as the path beneath them starts to crumble and give way.
Emperor Rain: RUN!
The group doesn't need to be told twice. They break into a sprint, desperately trying to outpace the destruction overtaking the path. Cyrax's heroic act of selflessness catches everyone off guard. As she pushes Scorpion to safety, she falls into the chasm that had opened up on the path, letting out a cry of fear as she falls.
Cyrax (screaming): AHHHHH!!!!
The others watch in horror, their eyes wide with shock and concern, as Cyrax lands hard on the ground, groaning in pain.
Johnny's nervous attempt at a motivational pep talk contrasts starkly with his slow and painstaking descent down the wall.
Johnny: Okay, Johnathan, you've got this! Hang in there! I'm coming!
The others watch with a mix of amusement and concern as Johnny's movements resemble more of a slow-motion climb than an urgent rescue mission. As Johnny continues his slow and labored descent, Scorpion takes a more practical approach. He sighs in mild frustration, then stabs his spear into the ground, using the attached rope to swiftly and effortlessly descend down to where Cyrax lies. Scorpion's usually stoic expression betrays a hint of concern as he helps Cyrax to her feet.
Scorpion: Are you okay?!
Cyrax lets out a wince as she straightens up, but manages a small smile.
Cyrax: I'm fine, just a bit bruised. Thanks for the assist.
A rare smile tugs at the corners of Scorpion's lips as he speaks, his voice filled with genuine gratitude.
Scorpion: No... you saved my life. Thank you.
