Magneto, Sabretooth & Christina
Magneto walked through the halls of the abandoned labratory, knowing that Sabretooth was here.
"Victor, do come out here. Looking through these halls for you is not the way I wish to spend my day."
Sabretooth stepped out of the shadows of a room, and crossed his arms. He rumbled a warning growl, lifting his upper lip to expose his fangs slightly. Magneto stared back at him calmly.
"What do you want?"
"I am bringing the Brotherhood back to life. Would you like to discuss this?"
Sabretooth thought about it for a moment, then turned to go back into the room.
"Why not?"
Magneto followed slowly. A small child was playing with a doll on the floor, and she glanced up at him. Eyes a startling green with her blonde hair. Sabretooth ruffled her hair as he sat down on a chair he'd salvaged. A body was curled up in the corner, and Magneto saw it was a pregnant woman of, he thought, Indian descent.
"You wanna talk, so, talk."
Magneto outlined his ideas carefully, and simply as Sabretooth drank some rotgut alcohol, suspicious animal eyes fixed on him. The same wary feral look in the eyes of the child who sat near him, hair tangled as she leant against his leg and one hand wrapped into a fur covering. The woman in the corner sobbed quietly.
"Who is she?" Magneto asked finally, letting his curiosity get the better of him.
Sabretooth's eyes flicked to the woman.
"A job."
"I see. How quickly can you finish this job and come join me?"
"I was s'posed to look after her until she whelped the pup she's carrying, but...I'll just dump her on the guy that gave her to me and come join you. Say, a week."
Sabretooth ran his fingers through Victory's hair softly.
"I remember you from Glory's compound," the child said in a lilting voice.
"Indeed, I worked with her for a while..." Magneto said, looking down at her.
Quicksilver gleam of white dangerous fangs in a defenceless face.
"She's dead now. Are we going to help you kill the humans?"
"It may come to that..."
"Good."
Magneto rose to his feet and saw himself out.
