Wanda watched the chaos with a little amusement and a lot of anger. She had been peacefully enjoying…. sleeping. Quite happy sleeping wrapped up in his… her blankets. Nice warm and comfy blankets. She had never felt blankets that solid before!
Then these ‘people’ had to ruin it!
Pyro and Colossus decided discretion was the better part of valor and fled the scene.
While subduing Frost was a job they felt qualified for, despite the fact that they had been fighting her for over an hour and had done nothing but add to the damage total, facing Wanda while she was walking six inches off the ground and glowing with power was something else entirely.
Gambit had yet to notice the pissed off witch behind him and was gleefully whacking Sabertooth with his staff, missing Frost completely. The fact that Sabertooth had already ripped the door off his quarters, and completely trashed his room fighting Frost, was surely just a coincidence.
Sabertooth was covered in cuts and bruises, desperately trying to evict Frost from his clothes.
Frost meanwhile was somewhere in Sabertooth’s pants and could only be seen as a rapidly moving bulge. The speed she moved at and the amount of damage she had done over the last hour had him in a state of understandable panic. This was one area where he had never tested his healing abilities, and had no intentions of trying, ever.
As the air began to feel heavy, like just before a storm, Gambit and Sabertooth slowly turned towards the angry young women. Frost’s eyes even peeked out through the zipper of his pants curiously.

Ranma paused outside the medical bay as the floor shook. Shrugging it off as not being his problem he set off to find Magneto’s room. From the looks of things she wouldn’t be needing it any time soon. Yawning widely he covered his mouth and paused, sniffing his hand.

Wanda smiled grimly. She felt the warm glow you usually get when you blow up someone you really don’t like. As the glow seemed to shift south of it’s usual spot she decided she might have enjoyed this a little too much.
*****
Ranma paced back and forth in Magneto’s bedroom, his mind dwelling on recent events.
He knew that others had different standards of what constituted perversion, so depending on where you were different things were perverted. For instance, from his time spent with Wanda it appeared that doing something on accident wasn’t perverted. While if he had been with Akane it would have been perverted enough to make Happosai shed a tear of joy that his ‘heir’ was following in his footsteps. Right?
Ranma paused for a moment and noticed he was sucking on one of his fingers again. ‘Arrrgghhhh! I really am a pervert!’ Heading for the bathroom he decided that a nice cold shower was just what the doctor ordered.
*****
Finding a nice warm glow encompass her, along with thoughts of Ranma, she mentally shook it off and started questioning Gambit again.
“So you’re saying Ranma was kidnapped, brought here and then got eaten by sharks?”
“Exactly. Sabertooth saw the whole thing. Blood, water, bits of stuff floating.”
Wanda winced. OK, that did explain quite a few things. It followed what she had caught from Ranma and explained why all she could sense was life energy. He was dead. That thought was actually painful, but it fit.
He had died a violent death here. He was a disembodied spirit. That’s why when she reached out he had vanished. The rest must have been a dream. He was just looking for some comfort before he passed over and being the only person not involved in his death he had been drawn to her.
Feeling a bit depressed over the whole mess she decided to get some more sleep and contact Agatha before dealing with this. The hollow feeling in the pit of her stomach was just sympathy for a poor lost soul. It couldn’t have been because she had just lost someone she seemed to connect with before she even had the chance to know him. Right?
