The Cavalry

"Alright," Captain Britain said as they went down the corridors, "above all else we keep moving. If they pin us down, we're useless. Worst case we fall back to the crew at the engines, are we clear?"

The first few corridors they headed down were clear, although Kyra could detect alien thoughts approaching through the corridors. The ship was large, but wasn't exactly a maze, and it seemed inevitable that they were going to run into the resistance on the way to the detention center.

Onyx keeps inside the shadows, following behind the group. If there's trouble, she intends to be a one woman ambush.

As Kira reached for their minds, she'd find one great advantage: No one knew where the intruders were yet. There was no preconception to fight against to plant the suggestion in, though letting them on their way would send them right toward Ashlie.

The Shi'ar seemed to be passing, rather quickly, one hallway over. Kyra could tell this rather precisely, but the rest of them could get a good idea by hearing the sound of footsteps through the closest corridor.

bear smiled, and backtracked through the corridors, to set up a concussion ball to go off behind the intercepting Shi'ar, to make them double back, and give the X-Men a clear shot.

There was a muffled thump as the concussion grenades went off, then the sounds of shouting in Shi'ar that was coming gradually closer to them. It wasn't long before the first Shi'ar fell back around the corner and saw the X-Men, readying their guns to fire.

Daniel looked down at his chest as a plasma bolt impacted it. "Remind me to put Gladiator on my Christmas card list, babe," he said, looking back up and sending beams of searing heat from his eyes at the Shi'ar who'd shot at him.

One of the shadows behind a Shi'ar springs to life, living black tendrils shooting out of it and wrapping around his neck as Onyx rises out from it.

Captain Britain rushed in, leading with her force field, aiming to grab at one of the Shi'ar and do a little bowling.

Kevin summoned his armor just in time for it to block a plasma bolt. He then leaped into the fray using his lightforce-enhanced fists instead of his swords. He wasn't killing anyone else if he could help it.

Needless to say, the off-balance and ill-prepared guards didn't even get many shots off before the X-Men had them on the ropes and-or unconscious. There weren't any more responders yet, but it was likely that would change, given the concussion grenades that had been set off. Moving would be a good idea, especially with the detention center this close.

The rest of the corridor was clear, but they'd find the door they needed to get through sealed from normal entry. Kyra would be able to detect many thoughts on the other side. Oddly, there seemed to already be conflict in progress on the other side.
