(Christina groans in aggrivation and lets go of Radar. She knows that they will be arriving to the base soon, so she would have to do something quick. She recalls the promise she made with Radar about not doing anything stupid, but she can't just leave Chris on his own. He has done so much for her when she arrived at the mansion, so she has to help him. She knows that even though they have been possessed by Apocalypse, Chris won't harm Liz or Wolf. She puts her head in her hands as she begins to think. She is beginning to feel overwhelmed and worried. She hears a noise beside her and looks to see Radar's Vodka bottle shaking. The more she concentrates on it, the more violent it moves. Her telekinesis... She could use it to help. She begins to concentrate on the Hummer. It was being controlled by a Tina at the base, but maybe she could use her powers to stop it. She has never done anything quite as big, but it was worth a try. She uses her feelings to increase her power to try to slow the Hummer down so she can get out and back to ECKS.)

(ECKS slowly pulls himself up and looks at his wrecked bike. He wipes a spot of blood from his lup and straightens up his leather jacket.)
ECKS: "I don't know who the Hell you think you are, but you're damn sure gonna pay for messin' up my wheels. And the flame thing, nice parlor trick, you use that at parties? Won't matter for long. 'Cause I'm gonna tear you apart, one piece at a ti..."
(He turns to face his attacker only to see Wolf standing with Liz at his side. He instantly recognizes Wolf, remembering him to be one of the mansion's attackers and unsheathes his claws. Not knowing that either of them are being controlled by Apocalypse. He points at Wolf.)
ECKS: "I remember you. You helped Smith's lackies tear up the mansion. Hate to say it, pal, but you're next. If it's a fight you want yer lookin' at the right man to give it to ya."
(Going against his normal fighting instincts ECKS rushes at Wolf and lunges claws first straight for him.)

(Wolf snarls as ECKS leaps at him. He jumps backward and catches ECKS's wrists. The two land hard on the flat top. ECKS is on top, struggling to sink his claws into Wolf's chest. Chaze lets out a groan of exertment as he feels the tips of ECKS's claws touch his skin, beneath his fur. Wolf pushes himself sideways as the claws draw blood. Wolf headbutts ECKS but that seems to hurt him more than ECKS. Wolf violently shoves ECKS's claws away and slashes ECKS's throat. As Wolf gets to his feet, he kicks ECKS as hard as he can in the side. Wolf leaps atop ECKS's back and grabs his arms. He holds them as he starts choking the life out of ECKS.)
Wolf: What happened to the fight boy? Seems as if I'm the only one doing anything.

(ECKS struggles against Wolf's strength, realizing that he is his match if not slightly stronger. In a choked voice he taunts WOlf even more.)
ECKS: "I'm just gettin' started, furball. You ain't seen nothin' yet."
(ECKS leans slightly forward then quickly drops back to the ground, smashing Wolf between himself and the ground. The force causes Wolf to let go and ECKS quickly rolls away. He gets to his feet and turns to see the faster Wolf already right behind him, Wolf swings a clawed hand and catches ECKS across the chest, ripping right through his shirt and leaving slash marks in the skin underneath. Winded by the blow ECKS takes a step back. The wounds quickly close and ECKS goes back to the attack.)
ECKS: "That the best you got, pal? 'Cause that scratch ain't gonna do nothin' but make me madder. And ruin another one'a my good shirts."
(He comes in swinging, and after being blocked several times he finally scores a glancing blow to Wolf's chest, matching the blow he just recieved. Now it Wolf's turn to back up and take a breath.)
ECKS: "Eye for an eye, bub."
(ECKS looks on as Wolf tends to his wound. He holds up one finger and gives Wolf the old "come and get it" gesture.)

(Wolf snarls and circles ECKS carefully. He jumps up and shoots several of his claws at ECKS, who parries and dodges them. Wolf lands a few feet away from ECKS leaps at him, and knocks ECKS to the ground. Before he can get back to his feet, Wolf grabs a muffler left from a wrecked car and swings it at ECKS, knocking him back down to the ground.)
Wolf: Taunts don't work on a god boy. So save your modern tongue for someone who cares.
(Wolf spins the muffler around and flips it over his back till it comes back around his body and he points it at ECKS.)
Wolf: The Four Horsemen shall ride, and you shall lead them, ECKS.

(Christina sat in strong concentration to stop the moving vehicle. She never did quite get the hang of her telekinesis, but she had to... It was her last chance. As she focused all her energy, she could feel the fatigue already starting to take hold. It was taking too much out of her, but she couldn't stop. She feels the vehicle starting to slow down and decides it's good enough. While still concentrating on the Hummer, Christina opens the car door and leaves Radar a message.)
Christina: I know I said I wouldn't do anything stupid, but this is important to me. I'm not going to endanger anyone else.
(Christina takes a deep breath and jumps out of the Hummer. She hits the highway pretty hard and rolls to a stop. She looks at her hands and legs. Her fingerless gloves and jeans have been torn and she sees the scratches are already starting to bleed. She shakes off the pain and the fatigue and begins to run back to join Chris.)

(Matthews groaned in his head as he heard Christina's message. As he tried to slow the H-14 down by himself, he heard a familiar voice over the radio.)
Tina: Hello, is anyone there? Do you need assisstance?
(With no one to answer, the Hummer began to slow.)
Radar: "Oh brother. Damn women! Can't keep a promise."

(Hearing the words Four Horseman causes a sudden and violent relapse in ECKS' mind. He drops to one knee and holds his head, trying to unlock the memory. But only flashes come back to him. Each one by itself is not enough to piece anything together. He stands just in time to see the muffler flying at him, he takes a step to the side and uses his right hand claws to shred the muffler into three pieces.)
ECKS: "Lead the Four Horseman!? You think I'm gonna take part in your little scheme, let alone be the leader? I guess you haven't heard, I already lead a team. Generation NeXt. Plus look at me, not much of a horse kinda guy."
(Wolf just continues to stand there, not amused in the least by the wisecrack.)
ECKS: "Ever heard of a sense of humor? Might wanna think about findin' one. And gettin' back to business, you want me, you're gonna have to take me. Think you're up for it?"
(ECKS clears his thoughts and wipes the sweat from his forehead, a result of the fighting and the heat from the flames still surrounding them. He knows this is gonna have to brutal. He knows Wolf will have it no other way.)

(Wolf takes a step forward but immediately stops afterwards. He can hear Nur's voice in his head.)
"QUIT PLAYING AROUND YOU FOOL! EITHER YOU STOP HIM OR I WILL!"
(Wolf snorts at the comment and starts walking slowly over to ECKS. He's about to attack, when he falls to his knees and groans in pain. He worries if ECKS will take this opportunity to strike him down, but that worry is soon overcome with sheer pain. Wolf's fur changes back to white and his eyes to emerald. He can feel Nur leaving him, but it's different this time. He looks up to ECKS and can see him looking above his head. Chaze looks up and sees a spiraling red entity floating above his head. Realization dawns on him too late.)
Wolf: ECKS, get out of here!
(The entity shoots from above Wolf's head and slams into ECKS, knocking him to the ground. As he wreathes on the ground in pain, Chaze crawls over to him and grabs his shoulders.)
Wolf: Come on dammit. Fight it! Fight it ECKS!

(Liz's eye snap open from her stupor and she sees Chris on the ground, writhing in pain. She teleports to his side and takes this as her only chance to save him. Placing her hands to his temples, she hits him with several mental blasts. Fighting her way past Nur's presence as it settles into his mind, she hits the nerve in Chris's brain that triggers intence exhastion. Within a few minutes, he stops flaling and falling into a very deep sleep. Liz looks up at Chaze, her eyes and hair back to their original state.)
Liz: Es ist safe for us to bring him back.

(Still suffering from the psychic shock he recieved from Liz to lock out En Sabah Nur, ECKS can tell that something else is wrong but that his healing factor is working overtime to try and correct the problem. He tries speaking but can barely muster a sound.)
ECKS: "Wh-wh-wh... happ.... me.... Feel..... st-st-strange."
(His eyes remain closed as he seems to black out again from the pain his healing is bringing down on him. It almost seems as if whatever infected him is actually beating his healing factor. In his blacked out state he sees flashes, images in his mind. But he can't tell if they're real or imagined. He can't even tell if the scenes in the flashes have happened already or if they are somehow images of things to come. But he knows that whatever they are, they can't be about anything good.)

(Christina stops running to catch her breath. Her hands and knees are bleeding from falling and is beginning to hurt. She looks and sees Wolf, Liz, and Chris up ahead. Chris is lying on the ground and Liz is placing her hands on his head.)
Christina: *whisper* No...
(Christina limps to the side of the highway and hides herself among the trees. She looks out so she could still see the others. She was too late. Chris was probably under Apocalypse's control now. She would need a lot of help to get Chris, Liz, and Wolf back to their original selves. The only thing she could do was to wait for the others to arrive.)

(Wolf smells the other girl, Christina nearby and takes a careful but subtle look around. He spots her but decides she needs a little time to herself. He turns back and looks at Liz and the unconscious ECKS.)
Wolf: Please tell me you got to him in time to block out Nur.
(Wolf's emerald eyes shine as he looks up to Liz's eyes.)

(Wolf nods picks up ECKS. As they turn, the flames around them dissapate to reveal Matthews walking down the road. A fresh gash is streaming blood from his eyebrow and a scowl is visible on his face.)
Wolf: Oh man, Johnson, what--
(Matthews shoots Wolf with brain blast and Chaze sink into unconsciousness. Liz starts to protest, but Matthews grabs and holds her where she is, using his power. He drags the three of them over to him and sighs.)
Radar: Do you want to know how bad I feel, from your f@#$%^ makeshift hangover. I feel like a damn zombie. I literally want to blow up my own head. It's unbelievable. Do you have anything to say to that. Oh wait, I don't give a rat's @$$.
(Matthews drags the three of them behind him using his powers and looks around to locate Christina. When he spots her, he stops.)
Radar: Girl, if you don't want me to strike you unconscious right now, you will get out from behind that tree and get in the damn Hummer.
