(Liz laughs softly and turns her gaze back to Chaze.)
Liz: Some memories are gute. Ozers, not so much. Mein parents locked me in ze attic of our tiny litte shack. Mein sister vas kind und so vas a boy I knew, but I have not seen eizer in years und I doubt ze vant to see me. I vas so glad vhen ze circus turned down mein parents offer for me. Ze Munic Circus sent me here to be in freak show. I ended up meeting ze man who owns ze mansion. I own him so much.

(Wolf listens intently.)
Wolf: Yeah, it's amazing how some people or some mutants can go through so much only to find true happiness. So, I guess that explains your flexibility. So what else can you do?

Liz: Mein physiology is really messed up. I have extra bones und muscles zat allow me to be very flexible. I am telepathic, telekinetic, und teleportic. I also know how to use just about every size bladed veapon. I can ice-skate but I am terrifed of going anyvhere near a body of vater bigger zan a bath tub.

(Wolf gives her a puzzled look at that last statement.)
Wolf: Ok Liz, then what is your codename? Or at least that's what they call it around here.

Liz: Nightcat. I had heard of a man zat vent by ze name of Nightcrawler. So I took und adjusted ze name to fit me.
(Liz continues to stare at the young man next to her with her dead sage eyes.)
Liz: I am so sorry zat I put you in zis position.

(Wolf shakes his head. He stares into her green eyes and changes his own to the same shade.)
Wolf: Creed told me once that everything happens for a reason. So, maybe we were supposed to end up here together and maybe we're supposed to kill Smith.
(He sighs and lowers his head again. He hasn't gotten any rest in hours, and the adrenaline is pushing his limits, but he's not about to stop now. He picks up his head again.)
Wolf: So, not to be rude or anything, but I guess you can't go out in public or anything, huh? Because I had a quick little plan on how you could escape if you needed to.

Wolf involuntarily picks up her hands again. He stares into her eyes and speaks to her soothingly.)
Wolf: Well, I'm sorry that your outing had to be such a disaster. And I'm sorry that I broke your nose. I see the doctors fixed that, but still.....
(Radar comes in, and motions to Wolf. Radar glares once more at Liz and then leaves just as quickly.)
Wolf: Well, I guess I had better go. But I do want you to know, that as long as I have the opportunity, I won't let anything happen to you.
(He places her hands in her lap and stands up. She catches a glimpse of his sewn up gashes as he smiles at her.)

(Liz waves at him and calls to him.)
Liz: I vill hold you to zat Dog-boy!
(Liz smiles as he walks out of the room. She knows that the others would come eventually but for now she needed to keep her cover. She lays back down gingerly on the bed and tries to get comfortable.)

(Wolf looks at Radar and Smith who are outside waiting for him. Smith locks the door to Liz's room and turns to Wolf.)
Smith: It seems we have a problem.
Wolf: What do you mean?
(Radar shoves a knife into Wolf's back and grabs his neck and pulls him to the floor.)
Smith: It seems as if we have a traitor in our base. And that's something I cannot allow. It also seems as if your little friend in there isn't who she says she is.
(Wolf tries to escape Radar's grip, but due to the loss of blood, lack of sleep, and overexertion, his attempts at freedom are useless. Radar pulls the blade out and plunges it in again. He whispers sarcastically in Wolf's ear.)
Radar: Yeah, well I don't like you either. You're a disgrace to mutants everywhere.
(Smith delivers a hard kick to Wolf's side and walks away. Radar releases him after another moment. As he gets to his feet, he glares at Wolf.)
Radar: The strong never falter. Say hello to Sabertooth for me.
(Wolf's eyes grow large and he changes without hesitation to his wolf form. But he's too weak to chase after Matthews. He reaches out with his paw and then goes unconscious on the floor, his blood pouring out.)
Smith: Evacuate the base. Blow him and the teleporter away.
Radar: Yes sir.

(Radar wallks out of the main hangar, as helicopter after helicopter take off. All of them loaded with soldiers, all of them annoyed at the fact that they must relocate to Omega Base. Thomas comes up behind Radar, and slaps him on the shoulder.)
Thomas: We're doing the right thing here, Matthews. This war only gets longer and more bloody, but at least we have good soldiers like you on our team. Ready to serve.
(Thomas walks away, heading back to the choppers. Smith passes Radar and nods. Radar turns around once more to see the final two choppers, one of them taking off, the other waiting for him. He signals for the pilot of the second chopper to hold, and saunters to the control room. As he gets there, he sees all of the monitors have been turned off--save one. The infirmary camera is a screen of static, but Wolf hasn't disabled the speakers. Radar edges a little closer, and speaks into the mic for the teleporter to hear.)
Radar: We hope you've enjoyed your stay at Dallas Smith's three star Charlie Base. We ask that you sit back and enjoy the good times as we proceed to blow this building to smitherenes.
(Radar chuckles to himself and then adds coldly,)
Radar: You think we wouldn't have noticed you as the teleporter at the mansion. And you turn up here, sporting the idea that you're Oracle. Then when we scan Wolf's skull, we find the detonator has been defused.
The very idea makes me sick. You X-men believe you have the right to police the world, trying to make two different races co-exist. Lemme tell you something. The world is chaos. There's nothing that can be done to stop it, save one mutant.
Trust me, Apocalypse will end this war. And I'll be on the winning side. Of course, you and your mutt of a mutant will be roasting in hell, seeing as you're both about to die. I took care of him personally. So, goodbye Liz. Have a nice trip.
(Radar steps away from the mic and flips a switch to begin the countdown of the bomb. As he walks out of the control room, he's sporting a grand grin of satisfaction.)

(Liz sits up straight at the sound of the man's voice. He says that she and Chaze would soon be dead. She gets out of the bed and limps over to the door. Chaze's bites had healed the exteriors wounds, but her leg still felt like his last swipe at her had broken something. The door opens as she nears it and she sticks her head out to see Chaze on the ground, bleeding heavily from two stab wounds to the shoulder.)
Liz: Chaze? Chaze!
(Liz hurries back into the infirmary and gathers up any medical supplies she can get to and puts them into a bag, trying to keep them as sterile as possible. She hurries back out to him, sits beside him and uses telekinesis to stop the flow. Suddenly she hears a rumbling and remembers the man's words that they were going to blow the building up. She created a telekenetic shield around them, held tight to Chaze and teleported outside.)
