Chapter 1 - Excalibur: Mission 1 - Artificial Sweetener[]
Heroic Battle[]
Start[]
Rogue:
|
I never did like Sentinels. What kind are these again? |
Gambit:
|
Prime, cher. But not so prime as you. |
| Rogue:
|
You stop runnin' your mouth long enough for us to do this job, now. Hear me? There's MGH serum to recover before these Sentinels hand it off to their masters. |
| Gambit:
|
As you wish, my darlin'. |
Lose[]
| Rogue:
|
Running from Sentinels? Shame on us. We won't be able to show our faces around the Helicarrier. |
| Gambit:
|
We off Xavier's Christmas card list, you think? |
| Rogue:
|
We will be if we don't turn ourselves right around and get those Sentinels where they belong, by which I mean the scrap heap. |
| Gambit:
|
We gonna get 'em right where they need to go, don't you worry 'bout that. Allons! |
Repeat[]
| Gambit:
|
We gonna give these Sentinels another go? |
| Rogue:
|
You game? |
| Gambit:
|
I'm all game, cher. You talking to the original mutant player. |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
Not too much for conversation, these Sentinels. |
| Rogue:
|
You make up for it, sugar. You know you do. |
| Gambit:
|
Now I got this whole stash of serum. Tempted to pour it down the nearest sewer grate. |
Agent Coulson:
|
God, no. Don't do that. What would it do to the rats? |
| Rogue:
|
Or the alligators? |
Maria Hill:
|
Just get it back to the Helicarrier, Gambit. |
| Gambit:
|
If you insist, cher. Mutant cocodrie, now that's something... |
Chapter 1 - Excalibur: Premium Mission: To Catch a Thief[]
Mini-Boss - Nitro[]
Reveal[]
| Agent Coulson:
|
Nitro. So this whole operation has a self-destruct button. |
| Gambit:
|
Let's get him deactivated before he can set it off. Allons! |
Start[]
| Gambit:
|
I'm here to defuse the situation. |
| Fat chance, Redeye. Things are about to blow. A.I.M. gets what A.I.M. wants, sooner or later. | Nitro:
|
| Gambit:
|
What'd you call me? Redeye? I look like a coffee drink to you? I think you mighta made me mad, mon ami. |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
Nitro is down and out, and doubtless repentin' of his villainy. |
| Agent Coulson:
|
We can certainly hope so. Thank you, Gambit. We'll take it from here. |
Mini-Boss - Grey Gargoyle[]
Reveal[]
Tony Stark:
|
Gambit has been tracking the A.I.M. forces' patterns and they center here. Guess who else we found?
The Grey Gargoyle. We've overheard him talking about Clan Akkaba. |
| Agent Coulson:
|
We had him penciled in as one of A.I.M.'s stooges. Looks like we were right. But Clan Akkaba? Red herring.
If A.I.M. thinks Clan Akkaba had anything to do with the Incursions, or the Circle of 8, they're wrong. Boss, maybe we should let them go down this rabbit hole. |
Nick Fury:
|
Maybe so. But we're going to control how we do it, and we're not going to let them wreck the museum. Gambit. Get him talking. |
| Gambit:
|
D'ac, mon chef. |
Start[]
| Gambit:
|
So I tell you what, Gargouille, I take you in, you give up the Iso-8 and tell us all about what ancient manuscripts you're looking for.
Then I don't have to bust your mouth too bad. Ça marche? |
| Don't you toxify French, barbare! | Grey Gargoyle:
|
| Gambit:
|
Pas de barbare ici, mon ami. Acadien! |
| Aaaaggggh, mes oreilles! Guards! Venez m'aider! | Grey Gargoyle:
|
Repeat[]
| Your interference displeases A.I.M., and your abominable French displeases me. | Grey Gargoyle:
|
| Gambit:
|
Encore! |
Complete[]
| All right. I give up. I will go to the Raft. Just protect me from this Cajun abomination destroying my langue! | Grey Gargoyle:
|
| Maria Hill:
|
Bring him in, Gambit. Let's see if he stays cooperative long enough to tell us about Clan Akkaba. |
| Gambit:
|
Oh, he will, least as long as I threaten to ask 'im in French. |
Boss - Fixer[]
Start[]
| Gambit:
|
Did I just overhear you saying you're trying to save the world? You know what those words mean, bubba? |
| Technology is the only thing that will save this world... and information. We will find out what this Circle of 8 is doing, and we will stop it. They are like children with matches. | Fixer:
|
| Gambit:
|
We gonna survive just fine as long as you stay out of the way. Help from you, we don't need. |
| You're going to get it whether you like it or not. A.I.M. is not asking. A.I.M. is telling. | Fixer:
|
Epic Boss - M.O.D.O.K.[]
Reveal[]
| Tony Stark:
|
Well, well, well. It wasn't just stray A.I.M. bucketheads in the cafeteria. M.O.D.O.K. was down there, too. |
| Agent Coulson:
|
And now he's blasting his way through to one of the off-site holdings areas. |
| Tony Stark:
|
You have proved yourself capable of looking at the same monitor I'm looking at, Agent Coulson. There's a commendation in that for you. |
| Agent Coulson:
|
Proud to serve my country, Mr. Stark. Boss, M.O.D.O.K. has bypassed security systems and is inside a special manuscript archive. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Gambit, are you still in this game? |
| Gambit:
|
Oui, mon chef. Where to now? |
| Nick Fury:
|
It's M.O.D.O.K. time. But take it easy on all the old scrolls and triptychs and whatnot. |
Start[]
| Gambit:
|
Wasn't you just stirring up trouble in London? How'd you get back here? That head of yours, it don't fit in any plane seat I ever seen. |
| I go where I please, mutant aberration. I take what I will. | M.O.D.O.K.:
|
| Gambit:
|
And you playin' with the occult? Where your technocrat self now, eh? |
| M.O.D.O.K. does not answer to lesser beings. M.O.D.O.K. only kills them. | M.O.D.O.K.:
|
| Gambit:
|
I don't see no lesser being, Grosse Tête. Just another freak. We all freaks here. |
Repeat[]
| Probabilities will desert you. This is the only certainty. | M.O.D.O.K.:
|
| Gambit:
|
You up for another hand, bubba? Let's find out. |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
Okay, Fury, he's down, but I don't know how you gonna get him out of there. |
| Nick Fury:
|
Our problem, Gambit. You take a break back at the Helicarrier and get debriefed.
Agent, you too. We need to get a sense of what A.I.M. was after. It wasn't Clan Akkaba, we know that much. |
| Agent Coulson:
|
But it was something ancient and sorcerous, which together with the Incursions suggests that we're only seeing the tip of a very large iceberg. |
Chapter 2 - Crazy Eights: Mission 3 - Foggy Vision[]
Deploy[]
Start[]
| Agent Coulson:
|
Gambit, people are calling tip lines to report seeing the Viper close to your location. Check it out. |
| Gambit:
|
You got it, mon frere. |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
You're not gonna believe this one. |
| Agent Coulson:
|
Try us. |
| Gambit:
|
Someone's throwing a HYDRA-themed costume party. I almost made a hell of a mess before I figured that out.
San Francisco, man. I love this town. |
Special Operations - Avengers Vs X-Men: Mission 3 - Versus (X-Men Side)[]
Deploy[]
Start[]
Cyclops:
|
Gambit, we've put together a controlled experiment that needs one of us to be the focus. |
Phoenix:
|
We're testing how this variant Iso-8 counters the Phoenix Force and looking for a way to combat it. |
| Cyclops:
|
Mind being a guinea pig? You get a little taste of the Phoenix Force as an incentive. |
| Gambit:
|
Won't be the first time, mon ami. Let's get this figured out. |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
That was... interesting, no? Not sure how else to say it. |
| Cyclops:
|
Interesting how? |
| Gambit:
|
You put the Phoenix Force and Iso-8 together, you're going to get either a big boom or they drown each other right out. |
| Cyclops:
|
That's what we thought. It's more important than ever that we collect that Iso-8 before Stark can get it. |
Special Operations - All Hallows: Mission 2 - The Hoary Hosts[]
Deploy[]
Start[]
| Maria Hill:
|
You sure about this, LeBeau? It IS a hell, after all. |
| Gambit:
|
Haven't you heard? L'enfer jus' be a state of mind, chere. Now we see how rusty at the thievin' trade I be. |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
You know, dis not be the first time I steal jewels for a beautiful woman... |
| Maria Hill:
|
Don't even think about it. |
| Gambit:
|
Heh. Mebbe it's not jus' thievin' I be rusty at. |
Special Operations - Apocalypse: Mission 1 - Missing in Action[]
Boss - Living Pharaoh[]
Reveal[]
| Rogue:
|
I just found the Livin' Pharaoh, right here in--unh! |
| Maria Hill:
|
Rogue? |
| Agent Coulson:
|
Rogue, do you copy? Report! |
| Rogue sends her regrets, Director Fury. She is currently otherwise engaged. But the Living Pharaoh is available to take all your questions.
Now if you will excuse me, there is much to do. |
Mr. Sinister:
|
| Gambit:
|
I'm goin' after her. |
Start[]
| Comes now the knight errant to rescue his damsel in distress. But alas! She is gone. | Living Pharaoh:
|
| Gambit:
|
Gone where? |
| Exactly where she should be. Great plans are in the making, and she will have her role to play. | Living Pharaoh:
|
| Gambit:
|
She ain't nobody's plaything. Stand between me an' her, you gonna be talking out the other side of your mouth in a minute, sure. |
Repeat[]
| Gambit:
|
I ain't stopping until you start talking. |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
She ain't here. |
| Maria Hill:
|
Where's the Living Pharaoh? |
| Gambit:
|
Gone too. I couldn't see where, too many a'them Test Subjects around. |
Professor X:
|
She is alive. I can sense her. But I cannot determine her location. They must have enlisted a psychic to block me. |
Special Operations - Apocalypse: Mission 2 - A Team Divided(San Francisco)[]
Mini-Boss - Toad[]
Reveal[]
| Professor X:
|
Toad is here in San Francisco. It is likely that he brought Rogue here, or was with whoever did. |
| Gambit:
|
I'm goin' after him. Nobody else. |
| Professor X:
|
Trust nothing he says, but listen nevertheless. The nature of his evasions may be informative. |
Start[]
| Gambit:
|
Crapaud, you better start talkin' or I'm gonna wrap that tongue around your neck and choke you with it. |
| Lookin' for your honey pie? She's not gonna be the same next time you see her. Trust me on that. | Toad:
|
| Gambit:
|
I changed my mind. Now I'm gonna choke you to stop you talkin'. |
Repeat[]
| Gambit:
|
If I let you talk this time, you better tell me what I need to hear. |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
He doesn't know nothin'. |
| Professor X:
|
Or he is possessed of stronger will than you will believe, Remy. |
| Gambit:
|
Either way, I don't know nothin' more about where Anna Marie is. I can't take this much longer, Professor. |
| Maria Hill:
|
We need you, Gambit. Stay the course. Keep looking. |
Special Operations - Apocalypse: Mission 3 - Rumble of Distant Hooves(San Francisco)[]
Mini-Boss - Sugar Man[]
Reveal[]
| Professor X:
|
Gambit, Sugar Man has freed Test Subjects in several locations on the island. They will draw more Sentinels and more destruction. |
| Gambit:
|
I need to find Anna Marie, Professor. Nothin' is more important than-- |
| Professor X:
|
More than your lover's life is at stake, Remy. If we do not meet threats as they arise, we have no chance of saving Rogue or any of the others. |
| Tony Stark:
|
Whoa, tough love. |
Start[]
| Gambit:
|
You better get outta my way if you're standin' between me and Anna Marie. |
| Anna Marie, sweet Anna Marie... wait'll you see her again. You wouldn't recognize her.
And when I get through with you, your own mother won't recognize you. |
Sugar Man:
|
| Gambit:
|
Talkin' 'bout my mama? Now you made me mad. |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
I did what you wanted. Now I'm gonna find Anna Marie. |
| Professor X:
|
You might not need to. I believe Cyclops already has. |
| Gambit:
|
Non! He doesn't care about her, he won't-- |
Cyclops:
|
Remy. If you're going to be a loose cannon, you might as well fight for Apocalypse. Because if we don't stick together, he's going to win. |
| Gambit:
|
I warn you, if you hurt her-- |
| Professor X:
|
He's not listening, Gambit. We all are doing what is necessary. |
Boss - Famine[]
Complete[]
| Cyclops:
|
Something happened... I saw Mr. Sinister for just a flash and then both he and Rogue were gone. |
| Professor X:
|
I believe I know where she has gone. Complete the sweep for Sentinels and Test Subjects, and then we will convene to plan our next step. |
| Cyclops:
|
Doing it now. Oh, and Gambit? |
| Professor X:
|
Don't, Scott. |
| Gambit:
|
What he said, mon ami. Don't. I don't wanna hear a thing from you right now. |
Special Operations - Apocalypse: Mission 4 - Survival of the Fittest[]
Mini-Boss - Famine[]
Reveal[]
| Gambit:
|
Dieu, it's Anna Marie. Stay out of my way. |
| Professor X:
|
Sentiment will not win this battle, Remy. |
| Gambit:
|
But love might. This is my fight, an' only mine. |
| Professor X:
|
Do not let him go alone, Agent. He isn't thinking clearly. She will kill him. |
Start[]
| Gambit:
|
Oh, cher. Look what he did to you. |
| Don't cry for me, Remy. This is what I was born to be. No one but Apocalypse is gonna to give us a gift like this. | Famine:
|
| Gambit:
|
It's no gift. He's poisoned you, and made the poison taste sweet. |
| That's jealousy talking. You can have your chance if you want it. But if you make the wrong choice... that's on your head. | Famine:
|
| Gambit:
|
Ainsi soit-il. I'll get you back, or I'll die trying. |
Repeat[]
| Gambit:
|
I said I'd win or die trying, Anna Marie. You think Apocalypse cares about you enough to die? |
Complete[]
| Gambit:
|
Anna Marie... |
| Agent Coulson:
|
She's alive, Gambit. Stand by. We're coming. |
| Gambit:
|
Heal her. Xavier, we have to-- |
| Professor X:
|
We will, Remy. We will. You have done what we could not. Now let us do what we can. |
