Spiral found herself near the entrance of Brotherhood HQ. Why was she not surprised Mojo left her stranded on Earth for failing to capture Longshot? She viewed her punishment as both a blessing and a curse. On one hand (or six!), she was away from the Spineless One. She did not have to see or hear him now. However, she was in a world where humans hated anyone who looked different.
The white-haired woman began to fold four arms across her chest. The low heels of her fur-tipped boots were planted firmly on the ground. She allowed her other two limbs to hang at either side of her blue bodysuit clad body. Her blood-red lips formed a frown. Her pale eyes were on the swords in her belt for a moment. She yearned to use them against Mojo himself.
There was a good reason why Spiral never attempted to kill the one who caused her so much grief. One had to lack a spine in order to rule Mojo's world. She was not willing to remove her own backbone. However, she did not seem to mind breaking or taking out the spines of anyone who angered her. A rare sad expression appeared on her pale face. She knew she could never be free as long as there were spiteful humans around.
The six-armed teleporter's thoughts vanished when she looked up. She seemed surprised to see a bird flying near her head. Another rare expression formed on her beautiful face. It happened to be a warm smile. It became a scary grin when she used one of her hands to snatch the bird and crush it! She released its corpse and watched it fall on the forest ground before stepping on it! How she enjoyed taking her anger out on others. ''I feel better already!'' she whispered.

Nocturne had been out for some fresh air. She wasn't as evil as everyone else, so sometimes she just couldn't stand being in headquarters for longer than she needed to be. At least she was there with her mother. She was lucky that no-one ever ventured into this part of the woods, for fear of mutant ambush, mainly by the Morlocks.
She heard a bird twitter, and then came a very unfamiliar voice. "I feel better already!". Tali walked further ahead. "Who's there?" she yelled.

Victor tapped his clawed hand in the tree top, having watched the girl the entire time. Her oddness had interested him from the first moment, specifically her additional arms more than her whites hair or blank expression; That seemed to be common around here. Not to mention she had an odd scent about her - Which was to be expected from a mutant, female no less. However there was another scent beneath Sabretooth's whisp; Nocturne? He squinted at the blue fur before breathing an irritated sigh. He didn't come out for 'peace' or, 'fresh air,' He came out because he wanted to. Simple as that. The agreement was one of loyalty, no rules, and that's how the brown-haired man preferred it.
Un-noticable for the moment, Victor watched the scene play before his curious gaze. His smoky-gray eyes sparkled with a certain excitement when she crushed the bird, and a certain fanged smirk crossed his pale lips. He paid no mind when he slammed down onto all fours from the tree, landing a few feet in front of nocturne.
[glow=red,2,300]"Ey, Frail!"[/glow] He hissed at the six-armed female, before raising a bushy brow. [glow=red,2,300]"Where th'hell di'ja come from?"[/glow] He knew she wasn't from around here - Simply because he had never seen her before, and he had made sure the name 'Creed' was embedded into every mutant's skull, both far, and wide.

Spiral seemed confused while she looked around. She turned to face an unfamiliar girl. One of her white eyebrows ascended. She tried to remember if they met at one point. She could not keep track of every opponent she faced over the years. However, the girl did look interesting.
''Who are you? Have we met?'' she asked. She gasped when a fanged man jumped near the new arrival. Her extra arms were no longer folded over her chest. They were currently tense. ''I am from a world where television ratings equal power. However, my master left me stranded on this planet of men!'' she answered.

"I don't think we've ever met before" Tali said, looking confused. She then noticed Sabretooth jumping down from the tree and landing in front of her. A sense of relief came over her. At least she wouldn't die if this woman was there to harm them.
''I am from a world where television ratings equal power. However, my master left me stranded on this planet of men!''.
"I am no man, thankyou very much" Tali said, poking her head around Sabretooth to look at the woman. "Or can you not tell the difference?" she said, sarcastically.

[glow=red,2,300]"Mast'uh?"[/glow] Victor questioned. His brows furrowed. What the hell kinda mutant had a master? Who would subject themselves to such a fate, was more like it. He was one who hated to be controlled; To be caged. He was obviously confused by the strange, almost concerned appearance of his face.
[glow=red,2,300]"Y'gotta prob'um wit'men, frail?"[/glow] He glared.

A small smile formed on Spiral's face. Four shoulders ascended while she shrugged. ''My apologies. I sometimes refer to people as men'' she explained. She raised her eyebrow at the interesting girl. She was about to ask her what her name was when the man spoke. Her smile became one of sadness.
''Men are responsible for what happened to me!'' she sighed. She made a point of flexing all six arms. Her white eyes remained on them. ''What are your names?'' she inquired. Her expression became one of curiosity. She waited for their replies.

"My name is Tali.... But everyone just calls me Nocturne. I can possess people" she said, making seem quite unimportant. "From the look of you, I assume you are a mutant? What is your power?" Tali asked, still standing behind Sabretooth just in case the woman tried to attack her.
It must be horrible for her. Hating men for what they have done to her. "What exactly did men do to you?" she asked.

Victor squinted as the girl replied. Naturally he felt a certain twitch on his spine, although he couldn't blame her; Though not all men were bad, he despised the government and anyone involved with it. The voice of reason forced him to withstand the comment and take it as advice to further himself away from being a hypocrite.
He waited for Nocturne to finish her introduction, still raising a brow as she hid behind him. [glow=red,2,300]"M'name's Vict'uh Creed," [/glow]He glowered. Her odd scent was starting to bother him, and in reaction he continously wrinkled his nose. He looked back at Nocturne when she asked the questions, and, curious himself to know, he awaited the strange woman's answer.

The six-armed teleporter nodded when they introduced themselves. ''Very interesting power!'' she said when Nocturne told her about her ability. She shook her head back and forth when asked if she was a mutant. ''I am not a mutant. I happen to be an enhanced human.'' She looked up at Victor.
''It's nice to meet you, Victor,'' she said in a sincere tone. She heard Nocturne's question about her power. ''I have several powers. I happen to be a sorceress/teleporter. I can also travel through time and other worlds. My magical abilities include turning myself invisible, removing superhuman powers, etc.''
Spiral paused for a moment. ''I didn't always hate men. Before my master experimented on me, I happened to be a stuntwoman named ''Ricochet'' Rita Wayword. I fell in love with a man named Longshot when he appeared on the movie set. He happened to be from a world where the Spineless Ones enslaved humanoid beings. I chose to go with him and my decision happened to cost me my humanity!''
The white-haired sorceress stared at Nocturne and Victor before continuing her story. ''I ended up lost between worlds, and was captured by Longshot's master named Mojo. He forced his scientist called Arize to experiment on me. He wanted to hurt Longshot by turning his girlfriend against him. Arize gave me extra arms while his master showed me how to use black magic and dance between worlds. The experiments turned my hair white and drove me insane!''
The madwoman began to scowl. ''Now you know my tale of woe!'' she spoke. She paused again. She glanced from one person to the next. She wondered if they understood why she disliked men now. ''What are your stories?''

"Well. Both my mother and father are mutants. I don't really know my father, as I chose to be with my mother, the Scarlet Witch, part of the Brotherhood. I have occaisionally seen my father, but I have never really spoken to him" she said. "But, that is where I get my blue furry skin from... Thanks Dad" she said sarcastically. She hated having blue fur. She could never go out in public without being made fun of, or have people trying to capture her because they would instantly know she is a mutant.
"That is pretty much my story. I've been here since then" she said, finally stepping out from behind Sabretooth. She felt somewhat safer around this woman, although knowing she was mad was a bit distressing.
