Chapter 315 - Chapter 312

I snorted, "what can I say? I make an exception when it's the president of the United States," I cut the other chain an immediately grabbed him before he could fall down. I then drew a cable from my helmet to his suit and plugged it into a port, "Sexy, hack into his suit and give the controls back to JARVIS."

"On it boss," Sexy replied.

"There!" I looked over and saw several Extremis soldiers jumping from crane to crane like a child on monkey bars. They were coming straight for us.

"Look out!" the president cried out.

I was about to attack when I felt a strong breeze came across my face.

Kakoom!

Thunder came and then lightning. I looked up and saw it began to rain. I smirked, "don't worry, they got this."

"Who?"

"X-men! Go!" I heard Scott cry out as the Black Bird appeared overhead, it's loading bay doors open as the X-men leaped out ready to fight.

I saw Jean fly down with Rouge in toe. Kathy leaped down, phasing through any objects that would hurt her, slowly herself down on decent. Kurt and Evans teleported while Storm, Logan and Scott came down on one of Storm's stronger wind currents.

"Take them out team!" Scott yelled as they did just that, surrounding the president and I, creating a perimeter around us and the Extremis soldiers.

Scott released his optical beams, firing at several Extremis soldiers, sending them flying back. Logan got close and personal while Kathy phased threw objects, brining the fiery soldiers with her, forcing them stuck halfway between objects. Evans sent out his bone spikes, impaling people from afar and any that got too close got slashed across the face, hard.

Jean caught one with her mind before she brought the soldier to Rouge who touched him with her bare skin. The girl roared in pain before controlling the powers she gained, proving the transfer a success as she breathed a sea of fire on a metal wire, causing the crate it was holding to come crashing down, crushing a couple of Extremis soldiers fighting the SHIELD agents down below.

Kurt immeditaly bamfed next to me, smiling, "hello sir, can I help you?" The kid wore a face mask covering the bottom half of his face, in fact they all did, hiding their identity, guess they don't want the president of all people to know what they looked like.

"W-what are you people?" the man asked.

"They're mutants sir," I replied, "and they are here to help, do you understand?" I stressed the last part a little too hard.

"Sir," JARVIS called out, "I have regained access to the suit."

"Good, pop him out," I replied, immediately the president was shot out, I grabbed him and helped him back him before turning him to Kurt, "can you teleport him back to the mansion?"

"No, that's too far," Kur shock his head.

"What about that?" I pointed to the SHIELD helicopter.

Kurt nodded, "no problem!" he offered the president his hand, the man looked weary before nodding and accepting Kurt's help, they vanished in a bamph.

I hit my compns, "the president is secured aboard the SHIELD helicopter. You guys can trash the place, go nuts."

And they did. They moment I gave them the green light, they let loose. Ben began throwing crate full of oil around and Johnny light it up, setting Extremis soldiers on fire. And while the damage wasn't permanent, it did give Sue the chance to blast them all into the surrounding waters, cooling them off.

Reed and Logan made a surprising team as Reed would launch people through the air and Logan would slice them up quickly.

Storm kept the rain coming, dousing the flames of the Extremis fighters while Jean and Rouge did their best to beat the shit out of the rest of them, with Scott, Kathy and I providing back up.

As I took down my seventh Extremis soldier I looked over and noticed the Mandarin and another man, blonde in a white suit, I'm assuming Aldrich, run away. They were getting into a chopper, ready to fly away, or so I thought.

Aldrich it seemed was adamant to kill the president and was flying his chopper directly into the path of the SHIELD chopper.

I need to do something, quick. I turned to Jean, "Birdie!" I cried gaining her attention. I pointed at the choppers about to crash, "can you stop them?!"

"I'll try!" Jean replied as she stepped forward, focusing all her attention on the two choppers. An Extremis soldier tried to use her distraction to kill her, but I shot a web blast at his face blinding him before I leaped over and kicked his face, sending him flying off and down two hundred feet.

But as he flew down I don't have the heart to kill him. So I shot a web line and caught him by the leg, I'm not a killer, not a needless one.

I turned to Jean and to my unsurprised self, she did it. She was sweating and her face was bright red from concentration, but she did it. Aldrich's helicopter was frozen in mid air, a good twenty feet away from the SHIELD one.
