"Uh-oh Spaghettios!" Nightcrawler gasps as two flying hoops slip around Storm and constrict.
SLASH!
The third ring is cut down by Wolverine's Adamantium claws.
"Herr Wolverine, you could market those as bagel slicers and be a rich man! Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum." Kurt Wagner canters.
As Fluffy careens into the mass of swarming tentacles, the fuzzy blue elf scolds, "Piotr Rasputin! I hope you would not treat our own kitty, Kitty Pryde, that way!"

Wolverine smiles lightly and resume running at full speed towards Kurt.
-Yer' gettin' funnier by the day, blue boy...
He just had the time to see Storm being grappled by the flying rings before rushing again, but he was now too near the objective to turn back.
-Hey, Pete? See if you can give a hand to the lady, I'll try try to free our caged buddy!
He ran quickly and leapt again, trying to cover as much distance as he could while evading potential attacks. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Start H: 3/4 E: 4/12

"I will be fine, Logan! You just be careful and rescue Kurt!" Ororo said as she tried to escape the bonds that held her. She was aware that she was severely limited right now, but if Logan could end this simulation, it could still be considered a success.

Seeing Storm begin to fall, her limbs restrained and unable to catch on the wind as she normally would, Colossus moved forward to catch her, flickering as he did, realizing that his solid steel frame is not the soft landing target one would normally wish for while plummeting.
"Do not worry, Storm, I have you!"

Colossus rushes over to help the X-Men's leader, but misjudges the distance and does not reach her in time. Storm falls to the ground with a thud, but uses the chaos to slip free of one of the rings binding her. [OOC: Storm is either free of the ring around her legs or the one pinning her arms to her side. Player's choice.]
Logan reaches the cage without incident and his animal-like senses don't pick up anything. Nothing. Not even the scent of Kurt Wagner!

Professor X excused you from the morning drill to take care of personal business, but asked you to fix lunch for your "rescuers". The lights dim slightly in the kitchen, indicating the training session has just begun. Behind you, the radio announcer begins the noon news: The United Nations is meeting this afternoon to discuss the situation in Arganistan. That country was invaded by a Soviet peace-keeping force four days ago. Arganistan has been torn by civil war for over a year.
In Pennsylvania, another shipment of nuclear supplies, including some fissionable material, has been stolen. Six similar disappearances have occurred in the past month, without clues or witnesses. Law-enforcement agencies are baffled.
Norbert Ebersol, a criminal better known as the Fixer, is once more at large. Ebersol, like Doctor Otto Octavious, also known as Dr. Octopus, escaped capture by the authorities for his part in the Octodroid rampage. However, unlike Octavious, Ebersol is believed to still be operating within the New York area...The newscaster's voice is lost in a terrific blast as the kitchen window explodes inward!

Grüß Gott!
Thats all blue elf managed to say, as he dropped his freshmade sandwich when his window exploded, letting a stranger inside. Quick glance at the attacker and his two guns could mean only trouble's. Thankfully, Profesor's Xavier training payed of, as he reacted quickly.
Disturbing mein Frühstück was a mistake, freund.
BAMF! Kurt dissapear in thin smoke and appeared on his opponents back.
Allow me.
He reached one of his hands to grab one of his guns and his tail to take the second one, unarming him in process. Failed or succed, he BAMF!'ed back at the ground before he could counterattack.

"It's not the real Kurt... as I suspected. Note to self", thought Logan, "gotta ask the professor if he can make that holographic blue elf less anoying if we're ever to use him in another training session."He was at the cage, but he knew better than to trust easy-looking situations in the Danger Room. This was one of the professor's favored tricks, apparently making it easy for those in the Room to make them lower their guard, then stricking when they do not expect it. It was wise, though, 'cause their enemies were more than likely going to use the same kind of tactics should they get the chance.
-I can hardly believe I'm being more patient than you are, kiddo. This is too easy, and if you used that head of yours to think instead of talk, you'd know that.
Still keeping his claws out for potential attackers, Wolverine started to study the immediate area around the cage, the walls, the floor around it, looking for hidden mechanisms, laser triggers, traps or alarms of some kind before he did anything to that cage.
-Now let's see if there's any surprise attached to that package... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Start H: 4/4 E: 6/12
1 into Close Combat, plus 3 from Claws, all shifted to defense; using Animal Senses of 7 to stay aware of potential attackers.
5 into Black Ops (Extraction), looking for traps, hidden mechanisms, laser triggers or alarms around the cage or on the cage.

Ororo oofed as she landed unceremoniously on the hard floor of the danger room. There was one thing she could definately say about becoming an X-Man after leaving Kenya, it was that she learned to take hits much better.
"Thank you for your attempt to catch me, I appreciate it." She said to Piotr as she felt the ring leave her upper body, freeing her arms.
Turning her attention to the ring at her feet, she proceeded to try and extricate herself now that her hands were free.

"I am sorry I was too late to stop you from falling, Storm. However, it appears the point is moot in any case, as Wolverine has reached the target goal. I fear we have not done a very good job on this simulation."
As he speaks, the Russian mutant reaches down gently and takes hold of the ring entrapping his fearless leader. Between the two of them, even without his full strength, she should be easily enough freed.
****
Action 1: 3 stones of strength to help pull the ring off Storm. Action 2: 2 stones of close combat shifted to defense in case something targets us while we're here and vulnerable.

(OOC: Just roleplaying a bit ) As Wolverine kept looking for traps or other booby-traps, he heard the words of Colossus as clearly as if he had spoken them right behind him, thanks to the accuteness of his superhuman hearing. -Nonsense, Pete, you just were less lucky than I was. Besides... this ain't finished yet.

Disarmed of his conventional weapons, the angry intruder in green coveralls releases a small smart missle that flies passed the fuzzy blue elf and out of the kitchen.
"Where's Wolverine?" the man growls.

Wolverine is in front of the cage in the X-Men's Danger Room. It appears a lot tougher than the average cage, so Wolverine may have to use a little elbow grease to cut it open. It also has an electronic lock on it, probably added by Charlie, so Storm could have a chance of opening it, since she has no claws or super-strength. The cage door has a trigger on it, but this is more likely a switch to end than training session than another blasted electrical trap.
"Too easy?!?" Nightcrawler protests. "Well excuse me! Shall I ask Herr Professor to up the power levels of the Danger Room to it's highest setting for you?"
Storm extricates herself from the metal hoop around her legs just in time to avoid the second one that tries to grab her again. Colossus then arrives and takes hold of the first ring in his strong farmer's hands. Incredibly, even in Peter's human form, he's strong enough to overpower one of these high-tech automatons. Now that's uncanny!

His claws already popped out, all that remained was cutting his way at the very heart of the problem, as usual. It was probable that Storm could open it faster if she could make it there, but since Logan was already there, he could as well give it a try. He turned to Piotr and Ororo:
-Seems like it's not trapped; but it looks like it's not gonna be easy to break through. I'm going to try to cut the bars off, but if you can get in here and gimme a hand, so much the better.
He started clawing at the bars with precise yet robust strikes, trying to take them down to get the elf out.
-An' make sure you keep these 6 fingers out of the knives' way, I don't guarantee their safety if you don't. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Start H: 4/4 E: 6/15
6 into Close Combat +3 from Adamantium claws (Armor Penetrating) to try cutting down the bars to free Kurt
Maintaining my Animal Senses of 7, watching for danger and listening to the words of my allies.

"The point of these exercises is not who completes them first, Piotr. The point is for us to hone our skills, and I think all of us has done wonderful so far." Ororo said as she turned her attention to Wolverine.
"Try and do as little damage as possible. Afterall, there will have to be repairs to be made when we are finished!" She said, as she smiled and nodded to Collossus before she took to the air to rush to the cage, just incase.
