His eyes wide in fear before settling into a thousand yard stare as he glanced over next to him, the uranium clear as day and out of the reactor's safety. Skeletons laid next to him and he screamed as he scrambled to the wall opposite of what can only be described as a radioactive elephant's foot. It took him a moment to fully grasp the situation and when he understood, he was shocked. [color=9e0b0f]"Shcho stalosya? Ni Neeet . Nemaye Boha nemaye."[/color] He clenched his teeth as he began to sob. He was there. He was there when it happened and he... [i]The sirens and alarms ringing in his ear as many were in a state of panic. [color=9e0b0f]"ZABYRAYSYA ZVIDSY!" VZYATY YIKH VZHE U PRODAZHU![/color] He yelled as he ran down the halls of the control wing. Each door he stopped at, he would yank those still attempting to tame the untamable and forced them out. [color=9e0b0f]"REAKTORNOMU MAYE NAMIR PRYBYRAYTE KHVYLYNY!"[/color] He took a few turns down the hallway until he reached the reactor room itself. There were still workers risking their lives for the better of the plant and the people who worked there. [color=9e0b0f]YDY VZHE![/color] He commanded. The technicians in their radiation suits turned to him in shock. "Sch-Shcho ty tut robysh!?" Michael shook his head and waved them off. [color=9e0b0f]"YA ryatuyu svoye zhyttya."[/color] He argued with the tech for some time before the last alarm sounded and it was the one they dreaded; imminent failure to the core. His eyes went wide and he screamed for them to run but- [I]"BOOM" "TSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHH"[/I] The reactor burst and let out a heavy wave of radiation. Those in the immediate area with him were killed instantly. But his blue eyes turned amber as he watched them fall. Screaming "No!" until the second wave and after that...Nothing but darkness and silence.[/I] Yet here he was, propped up against the wall facing the reactor's deadly glop of uranium. His eyes glazed over as he stared in silence at the aftermath that, for some reason unbeknownst to him, he survived. He sat like that for a few minutes (hours maybe?) before he stood up with quivering legs ready to fail on him. Michael used the wall to hold himself up as he begun his trip to the outside. [I]"crack"[/I] [color=9e0b0f]"Ou! Suchyy syn!"[/color] He tripped over another skeleton and onto glass which pierced his hand. Gritting his teeth, the glass came out as smooth as possible which he tossed onto the ground and stared at the would for a moment before holding it closed with his other hand. It took awhile to walk through the eerie silence of the plant. It's decrepit, worn out structure only remained standing thanks to the handiwork of the architects of the time but that doesn't mean that the sounds of crumbling bits of concreate couldn't be heard from the other sections of the plant, along with the cawing of the crows. and other birds that now inhabited this place. Once outside he was struck once again into silence as the once lively plant and surrounding area was reduced to a ghost town, a ghost city. Only nature ruled her now. Rubbing his amber eyes once more he continued walking towards what he believed was a safer section. What Michael didn't know was that he was being followed. Followed by a blue man. He made it to a clearing, where a now abandoned amusement park once held festivals and fun. It was here where the "blue demon" showed himself. He poofed into existence in front of Michael, startling him into a silent scream before lunging at him with a cocked fist. [color=003471]"Please, I already dealt with one of you attacking me and he now has a headache. Don't make this hard for me."[/color] Before the swing even connected he stopped and looked perplexed. Not only did this blue thing pop up in front of him, [I]now[/I] it was trying to speak to him, [I]IN ENGLISH[/I]! [color=9e0b0f]"Sranʹ ! SHCHO SHCHO khrenʹ ty !"[/color] Nightcrawler sighed. [color=003471]"You're not going to make thi-"[/color] [color=9e0b0f]"Yak vy znayete anhliysʹku ? Shcho , chort vizʹmy , stalosya vse tut ? Chy buv ryatuvalʹna komanda -"[/color] Nightcrawler already had a long day as it was. Mutants trying to hit him, run from him. Sure some made it easy but why was it the last bit that had to make it difficult. He simply rolled his eyes and grabbed the man's shirt and disappeared with him in a cloud of smoke, cutting him off from whatever the hell he was saying. They reappeared among a group of individuals, and the recently startled Ukranian kept up his bombardment of questions, leaving nightcrawler with an exhausted expression. [color=9e0b0f]"- Poslav , shchob vidnovyty tilo ? Yakshcho tak, to chomu, chort vizʹmy, ne zrobyly vony ... De my i khto ebut vony? SHCHO VIDBUVAYETʹSYA TUT!"[/color] At this point Michael was in a state of panic. His wide eyes darted among the group. [color=9e0b0f]Budʹ laska . Skazhitʹ , budʹ laska , u vas ye uyavlennya pro te , shcho vidbuvayetʹsya?[/color] His eyes pleading with the group.
