The X-Project

Relaying from Cyclops - there's been an assassination attempt on the Hungarian Prime Minister. He says that there were fatalities, but they're okay and the Prime Minister's okay and getting medical attention.

I suppose we're all on alert now - anyone checked in with Cable and Phoenix?

My part of the takedown's written up and filed, including the sworn statement to the FBI. Looks like the last we'll see of that psycho for a while, when he eventually wakes up from being flung like a rock in a slingshot. Good work there, Sam.

Next time I say we pick somewhere where we can actually land the Blackbird. This "driving to the mission" idea is highly overrated. Or at least take something with more legroom.

Was there some alert or something that I must not have heard? I thought I heard the jet leave this morning, and then it just got back in - there some emergency no one thought to mention?

Field response team: Dazzler (CO), Cable, Juggernaut, Kylun
On-site trainee: Jubilation Lee (off-duty, incapacitated)


In short: Entered Hellfire Club New York address. Encountered minor
resistance without incident. Team became separated shortly after
entry. Kylun kept security systems offline while Cable engaged Shaw,
Dazzler engaged Selene. Wisdom provided assistance with incapacitating
Selene. Brought Selene offsite with assistance of Juggernaut, enlisted
aid of Stephen Strange and Romany Wisdom to ensure removal of Selene
threat.

In detail: I'm still trying to cope with Wisdom being deep cover for
an entire year, but Cable made the link between all of us there, and
I'll vouch for him doing his part to take the witch down. Amanda's as
okay as she's going to be, Jubilee and Dazzler had their cursory
medlab checkups and were released. Pete took Amanda, said he'd make
contact when issues were resolved. Cable's post-mission checkup has
been turned over to Moira and Chuck.

Jubilee's fine from firsthand observation. Talked a mile a minute in
the car on the way back. Alison took a big hit from Selene, but Amanda
fixed her up. Nate - I ain't seen him this intense since Youra. Call
it a hunch, he's going to need some distance. Pete - an entire year
with the Hellfire Club. Their damn White King. Just to take them down
from the inside and nail Selene. Can't say I envy him, but it took
balls.

All in all - no casualties. Good outing.

Ahem.

If anyone has any bright ideas for how to get past the fucking quicksand section of Fearless Leader's latest drill, please see me.

That is all.

Goddamn quicksand.
