Stealing M.I.T.

M.I.T....

Top scientists at MIT had been researching new technologies, including the development of software which could handle pan-dimensional level calculations.  The projected applications had been hailed as revolutionary by the likes of Tony Stark and Reed Richards...

Which made it the perfect target for the continuing crimes of the Lethal Legion.   Sabertooth, the Owl, the Radioactive Man, and Mentallo had been sent to retrieve it.

The attack quickly made the news.

Fortunately, the local super-heroes, the New Mutants, were not far away in New Jersey...

Re: Sabertooth

Sabertooth was in midair and had no way to avoid the wave of pyroplasm coming at him. He could twist his body, but there was no avoiding the massive burn coming.

He howled in pain and hit the ground beside Stephanie. He didn't break his fall so much as hit the ground and start rolling.

If he had a healing factor ... he could probably survive another one without difficulty, yes? Stephanie blasted him again with pyroplasm, this time more solid than specifically burning, though that was extremely relative. Pyroplasm was always hot.

Stephanie needed to turn her mind, she realized, to his actual apprehension. Or incapacitation. Neither of which was an easy task given his healing abilities. Though from what she could tell, they must have been severely taxed at the moment.

He rolled along with the blow from the second blast of pyroplasm. He grit his teeth and tried not to scream again. He kept rolling to try to get the bits of him that were on-fire to at least a smolder. His healing factor was working hard, but definitely not fast enough to his liking.

Stephanie wasn't intending to give him a break. She knew that the moment she did, he'd heal up rather quickly. She needed to keep on him, hard. So she did just that. She went with the pyroplasmic hammer again, hitting him as many times as she could with it before it fizzled out and she had to go with something less draining.

She realized with some dismay that she wasn't really sure how to end this with confidence that she wouldn't kill him. She knew he was a real threat as long as he was conscious- she couldn't really stop attacking him. But at some point, she was going to start doing damage he couldn't heal permanently.

Right?
