The Sentinels vs The Rogues (Legends)

Schism

Seattle Tacoma Airport. Seattle, Washington. Several hours later.

The Rogues managed to clear out a portion of the airport of the civilians, waiting on the tarmac for the Sentinels to arrive. They had sent Tricia to help get people out.

However, they were down a member at the moment. Despite finally accepting Reese after his fight with Eli, he was called to Washington by his friend Marcus. He at first did not want him to leave, but after hearing it possibly involved alien technology, especially the same pieces that gave him and Danny powers, he understood where his friend was coming from.

The team stood by an empty terminal, keeping eyes trained in the sky.

After several minutes, Anthony spotted a man in a grey hoodie flying in their direction. Anthony touched back to the ground, and hurried back to the team.

"They're coming." Anthony readied an energy attack, hands glowing red.

Within moments, the Sentinels landed, and Bill was front and center.

The sky darkened, and Bill summoned a bolt of lightning into his hand. "Anthony Tyler, this stops now. You and your team need to stop."

"Who the fuck put you in charge?" Anthony asked. "We aren't gonna stop."

"Tell that to the man Reese killed." Bill replied. "Speaking of which, where is he?"

"Wouldn't you like to know." Anthony retorted. "We won't surrender just because you don't agree with what we do. We save the people you can't get to, do things you're afraid to do."

"It's called restraint!" Bill yelled, thunderbolts flashed in his eyes. "You're just making others afraid of us by carelessly killing anyone who gets in your way, or skimming some cash after thwarting a robbery."

"Well sorry we don't have a government backing us up; we look out for ourselves by any means! You won't stop us." Anthony hovered above the ground.

"Don't." Bill extended the bolt in his hands.

Anthony, followed by Eli, Amber and Danny charged the Sentinels.

Bill, Li, Darian and Francis jumped into defensive stances, and readied themselves to counter the Rogues.

Darian, using the water in the clouds above, sent a flood of water towards two of the Rogues, with Li casting a shield made of chi (energy), splitting the oncoming wave in two. Eli and Amber found themselves engulfed in water.

Bill engaged Anthony, sending a barrage of electric attacks towards the Rogues' leader. Anthony countered with a psychic attack, causing the Sentinels' leader to lose focus. Anthony threw a punch, sending him into an open terminal.

Li found himself countering attacks from a free Eli, whose strength knew no limit. Li effortlessly dodged punches and kicks from the Inhuman. After a sloppy haymaker from Eli, Li drove a knuckle-guided punch into Eli's stomach. Tapping into his chi reserves, he followed with an energy-boosted spin kick to the brute's head. Eli fell to the ground unconscious, Li's strike overwhelming him.

Amber's hands began to glow red, and using her abilities, levitated a parked plane off the tarmac and hurled it towards Darian and Francis. Francis grabbed Darian's arm, and with two rapid blinks of his eyes, he teleported from the tarmac to the hangar roof, with Darian in tow.

She spotted them, and flashing a smirk, threw the plane's wreckage in a volley of pieces towards the two heroes. They would reply by either teleporting or conjuring waves to ride out on.

Bill spotted his two comrades, and after dodging an oncoming punch from Anthony, heard Darian scream out "Hey Bill! Shock me!"

After responding to Anthony's attack with an electrified palm strike, he summoned lightning to fall towards Darian, who combined it with a freshly conjured waterspout. He moved it towards Amber, the electric current subduing her.

Anthony saw this, and rage exploded from him.

"You bastard!" He then fired a blast of energy into Bill's chest, to which he shrugged it off with an electric aura.

Meanwhile, Tricia hurried back into the airport, hoping to get them to stop fighting. Between the lightning strikes and mini tsunamis, she figured it would be a matter of time before they destroyed a piece of the airport.

She sprinted back, eager to get the Sentinels to listen to her newfound friends. She wished that Reese was still here.
