Waking up from a nightmare is scary for the best of us, waking up and realising your still inside yours is even more so, right now that is what’s happening to me. The last few days of my own memories are cloudy at best, I remember being in a room, someone’s lab, Sinsiter’s. The next time I awoke I was back inside my own room inside the Watchtower. Before I knew what was taking place, J’onn was by my side only this time he was different, cold. I felt his attack all to late as my body paralysed, unable to move or even think I was forced to shut down for the second time. Now as I awaken the people I have come to call friends want me to co-operate, yet the animal inside me says to flee, and in the end it is the animal that wins.
Fighting off a couple of medical personal, I leave them out cold before calling upon the fox totem. From there I cling to the shadows, the slightest smell or faintest whisper and I scramble for a place to hide. I know that time is not on my side; I have to get off the Watchtower itself before the Martian becomes aware of what is taking place.
Within minutes I arrive via the repair conduits inside one of the smaller hanger bays. Inside a couple of low tech transport vessels, but right now I’m not worried about this baby being the best, so long as it flies.
“A little late for a night time flight, isn’t it”?
The voice takes startles me, yet at the same time I’m not surprised to see her here. She is a hunter, an animal and one of the best melee fighters still on active roster. But right now she stands between my ride and me.
“Step aside Hawkgirl”
“Vixen you need to get back down to the medical bay, you’re sick that’s all”
“I’m sick, my so called friend attacked me”
“You left J’onn no choice Mari”
“Did you hear what I just said, he attacked me and not the other way around”
“Well then explain yourself, come back to the med lab and let them run the tests, don’t just run away”
“I’m not running, J’onn read my mind and said I wasn’t me, I’m going to get answers”
“From who?”
“I don’t have time, last warning step aside”
“It didn’t have to come to this Vixen”
I see her left arm move, bringing her weapon of choice into the light, the mace forged of her home worlds precious Nth metal in an average persons hand can be a fearsome weapon, in hers its terrifying. I watch as her large wings spread, in seconds she is airborne, an angel with a warriors heart. I summon the cheetah, whilst on land I can use the speed to my advantage, she dives from her position and I narrowly miss the impact of her strike.
“Eagle” taking to the air I land on her back, “RHINO” my totem and weight shift and I feel her try in vein to prevent the now free fall. Upon impact on the ground I here her scream but know all to well she isn’t going down that easy. Clinging to her back I call upon the electric eel and disperse a discharge, her hairs fry as her body spasms, but like I said she’s one of the best fighters we have.
I here her scream change tones, becoming more of a battle cry, she forces her mace to act as a conductor, in seconds I’m powering her very own lightning rod, I call upon the protection of the rhino as the mace connects and pray I stay conscious. The mace discharges its attack and suddenly it becomes my turn to scream. I’m sent flying, hitting the wall hard and I feel the metal give with my weight my frame.
“Hawkgirl, this is J’onn do you read me?”
“I’m here J’onn”
“We are detecting an electrical disturbance in your area, are you ok?”
“Looks like you were right J’onn, Vixen, or whoever she is just tried to escape”
“Do you need assistance?”
“Negative, I have her contained. I’ll tell you this though, she sure as hell fights like Vixen”
“Understood, return her to the med labs at once”
“Will do”
I hear their conversation, taking the time to heal as much as I can, its not until she stands right above me that I kick with all the strength and power of the Gazelle. The shock on her face as my eyes open tells me she is surprised by the attack, my feet land square in her chest and I feel a rib crack as her breath escape. I see the struggle in her eyes as she tries to fight the darkness, but in the end as she hits the ground it’s a state of unconsciousness that takes her.
As quickly as I can, I climb inside one of the small transport vessels I open the bay doors and instantly hear J’onn inside my head.
“Stop what you are doing or else I shall be forced to make you”
“You have more pressing concerns Martian”
“What have you done?”
“Nothing, but as soon as I blow a hole in the wall over there, Hawkgirl is going to lose what little air she has, I suggest you teleport her out of here”
“Vixen wait…”
“Now J’onn”
I push the jet clear, crashing straight through the wall of the Watchtower, the alarms screech all around me, I see Hawkgirl get sucked into the vacuum of space, I know they will think I’m crazy, but she’s in a space containment suit she has air, but they wont know that until they have her. So I can use the time to escape, I set the planes course directly for earth orbit, and aim directly for where the files say Sinister last had a known set up operation, I head for England.

A whirl of light appears directly on the main bridge, as the light disperses voices can be heard.
“She’s in a containment suit”
“It was an escape tactic”
“At least she didn’t try and kill her”
“Right now we need to find and contain Vixen”
“What do you suggest J’onn?”
“Scans indicate she set auto navigation for England, patch me through to any contacts held in our database regarding metahuman activity”
“Already done, I have MI13 on the line”
“Good when Vixen arrives I want a team ready to meet her”
To Be Continued by either myself or Psylocke…
