Christina grits her teeth as the lightning courses through her body. She lies on the floor and takes deep breaths to try to ease the pain, but the attack still left her frazzled. She looks up to Sara with a determined look.
Christina: I won't just sit back and watch you kill him.
Christina looks to Jack and sees that he is still lying on the ground. His right hand is still bleeding from Sara's attack, and she was scared to find out how much damage that last attack that was meant for her did to him. She notices that she is beginning to feel a little run down. It's almost as if she could feel the headband sucking the power right out of her. Damn it, she had to stay alert. It was almost time's up.

Winterfire: Well you'll just have to close your eyes.
(Sara lets out a crazy laugh before turning around and walking toward her brother.)
Winterfire: I'm growing a little impatient, how long do we have to wait?
(Psychonaut turns to a computer module next to him and begins to type some things on the computer.)
Psychonaut: eight minutes and counting till the satellite is over New York.
Winterfire: Just enough time to get everything ready.
(Sara starts shouting orders to the mutants around the room running the machines. She yells an order to Tank and follows it as ordered. Tank grabs Jack and sets him against the wall next to Christina. He was slowly losing the color in his face, but still had his consciousness. He griped his hands tightly in his shirt to slowly stop the blood flow. Without looking at Christina, he begins to talk, almost a whisper.)
Mindcontrol: Our time is almost up.

Christina could see that Jack was losing his strength, and she could feel herself getting weaker. She takes in a deep breath.
Christina: The others are going to make it... They have to.

(Jack still didn't look at Christina. He felt lightheaded from the headband sucking his powers and from the lose of blood. He could feel his time was going to end soon, but it wasn't Christina's time. She was like the little sister Jack never had and he wasn't going to let Sara finish her. Maybe he can give her a chance to fight back. Jack looks across the room, Psychonaut was powering up, "his eyes turned a bright green color". Sara's pawn was ready for the Sovereigns' most formulated attack. The fire bender walks over to Jack and Christina, a sweet, evil smile on her face.)
Winterfire: OK let's start on how we're going to destroy the U.N, shall we? Psychonaut will use Christina's "Seer" powers to locate the orbiting satellite's position. Everybodys' telekinetic powers will help bring it down. Finally, Jack's glowing eyes that help him see the movements of any thing will help navigate the satellite into the U.N. Now tell me, what do you think?

Christina tries to pick her head up and lightly shakes it from side to side.
Christina: You won't succeed. You will be stopped.

(Sara starts to laugh sarcastically, after wards she quickly gives an order to her brother.) Winterfire: Its time, bring it down. (Sara said the last three words very slowly. Psychonaut nods and starts walking to a nearby window. He stands next to it, looks into the sky, his hands begin to glow green, facing in the direction of the sky. Moments later a small dark red shape was visible in the sky. Sara turns back to Christina and Jack.) Winterfire: The show has begun and the end will soon be near. This test will show the road to the future. You might look back on this dark day and remember nothing but tragedy. However, I hope in the near future you'll look back with joy for what I did for you.
(The dark red shape in the sky grew bigger by the second. Sara's first grand strike against humanity had already started, her plans for her Conquest of Paradise would soon begin. Jack was hoping his friends would arrive before any of this could have happened, but it was too late. The dark red shape quickly changed color, Psychonaut had shield the entire satellite to protect it from the earth's atmosphere until this moment. Jack was hoping they wouldn't do that. It was over, nothing could stop it now.)
....
(Sara was seated on a chair, her eyes closed. She couldn't stand it. She walks over a TV hanging on the corner and turns it on. She furiously changes the channels until she arrives to a live broadcast of everything that was taking place in the U.N. The building was perfectly the same. The newscaster was talking about how a group of mutants stopped the satellite. She has her two usual fingers and points at the TV, a second later she explodes it. She starts to think about everything, if mutants stopped her plan, all her plans would be heading in the "right" direction. The humans might start "liking" mutants after stopping a 9/11 like attack.)
Winterfire: Its official, every.. single.. x-men is now an enemy of the Sovereigns!!
(She starts to walk toward Jack, he was lying on his back, his face was paler then ever, his eyes were closed, but he was grinning like a madman.)
Winterfire: You! You! Your friends! This was going to be my defining moment in history and they ruined it! No matter, the pyramids weren't build in a day. Well, aren't you going to say anything?
(He stayed quite and it was starting to creep her out. She pulls his head toward hers, but his head just dangles in the other direction. For the first time in a long time Sara becomes a little scared and drops Jack back to the ground. Her face was becoming paler, a smile forms on her face like a crazy person.)

Christina was leaning against the wall, still weakened from the headband that forcefully sucked her powers from her. But she couldn't help but smile with Jack when she heard about the news. Yes, they made it in time. She opened her eyes and saw the brief glimpse of fear in Sara's face that just made Christina smile more. She closed her eyes and replied in a voice she forced her weakness out of.
Christina: I told you so.

Winterfire: Don't worry Blondie I see this as a learning experience.
(Sara quickly turns around and runs into the her office, the x-men would be here in any time. If she was to make her next strike she would have to get everything from her plans out of there immediately. She grabs blue prints to the machines and headbands and her laptop, before walking back to the main room. She starts yelling an order to two non-headband wearing mutants. She gives the information on her three year plan to them.)
Winterfire: Go top my plane and wait there for an hour. If I don't return fly to Paris and deliver all the information to my father. Psychonaut you should go with them.
Psychonaut: No I'm going to fight as well, and besides I still have everyone's powers.
Winterfire: Fine but when things start to get too bad your leaving.
(The two mutants immediately disappear. Sara starts to walk toward Christina and Jack.)
Winterfire: You two are coming with me. I figure Jack that for the little time you have left should be spent watching your friends burn.
(Sara gives her usual order to Tank and once again he grabs Christina and Jack. They head into the elevator, followed by Psychonaut. They walk out of the elevator and out of the building. Tank opens the back and throws Christina and Jack inside. Tank and Psychonaut take the front and Sara goes and sits next to her captives. The car drives off and Sara turns to her enemies.)
Winterfire: Let's see how good your x-men mates really are.

Winterfire: Christina Collins SHUT UP!
(Everyone was silent for a few moments, until reaching a road block. They were close the U.N wasn't a few blocks from here. Tank turns to look at Psychonaut, each one already knowing what the other was thinking about. Tank hits the gas, while Psychonaut lefts all the cars in the roadblock with his telekinesis. The car passes through as all the police vehicles start slamming into the buildings and ground. Sara tells Tank to stop the car. Tank obeys as usual. Sara has her two fingers, a small blue flame out of them. She burns the bottom parts of the rope holding Christina's legs so now she can walk. Sara pulls Christina toward her. Sara stands in the middle of the road. She looks at the end of the street, the U.N with the flags of the world's nations around the building. Sara yells to walk first. Her two deadly fingers pointing to the back of her head.)
Winterfire: One move out of line and I'm blowing your brains out.

Christina was still slightly slumping from exhaustion, but her body stiffened when she felt Sara's deadly fingers on the back of her head. Her legs may have been untied, but there was nothing she could do right now without getting killed. She was forced to walk along with Sara towards the UN.

(Sara continues walking toward the U.N, she turns her head back to her current and former team mates.)
Winterfire: Stay behind me, Psychonaut scan the area for the x-men. I want to know how many of them there are.
(The psychic nods and he begins to scan the area with his mind. A few moments later he was done.)
Psychonaut: In total four, they're all in the east side of the building.
(They continues walking without talking. They finally reach the U.N, Sara grabs Christina and pulls her toward her. An evil smile crosses her face.)
Winterfire: Well I hope you had a fun time, we should really do this again sometime next year. Now go to your x-men buddies.
(Sara throws Christina to the ground and turns around starts walking toward Jack. She stands behind him, her sharp fingers pointing toward his throat.)

Lockheed continues to stare worried about his master until new, yet familiar scents catches his attention. He walks towards the front of the unconscienous Kitty and growls defensively towards the approaching mutants. His tail trashes behind him as he bares his teeth.

(Sara continues to walk toward Liz, Lockheed and Kitty. Tank and Psychonaut were right behind Sara. Sara looks at Lockheed with the same evil smile she always has.)
Winterfire: Well if it its my favirote..whatever the hell you are again. You x-men are going to pay for your treachery to your own race. If only Magneto we're here to witness your destruction.
Mindcontrol: Too bad I killed the fool.
Winterfire: Watch your Tongue! Once I'm done with your little friends its the end for you Jackie.
(Sara quickly pushes Jack aside, she spins and extends her right palm and unleashes a blue blast of fire toward the group of x-men.)

Liz heard the roar of the flames and reacted by throwing up a barrier to protect herself, Kitty, and Lockheed. Concentrating, she pushed the flames back. She was weak as it was, but she managed to send it back to Sara.
