You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman
They had arrived at Earth and had orbited for awhile before Empress had selected her targets. It had taken some time. She didn't want just ANYONE. They had to be among the best. She WOULD win the gladiatorial games this time. NOTHING would stop her. Not even a small thing like gender.

Empress didn't care if it was cheating. The only thing that mattered was winning and she would win this time.

The teleporters were activated and the selected targets were beamed directly to the lab. There they underwent a little transformation and were given attitude readjustments and then put into a holding cell.

The men would wake up in the holding cell to find a few changes.

	Before he could bear to open his eyes, Misha was rubbing his eyes and wondering what hit him. His head and chest ached. "Am I dead? Dead isn't supposed to hurt, right?" he asked aloud, not expecting an answer. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"You're not dead, but you're sure not normal," James said as he TRIED not to laugh at his brother. Not that James was any better off. First there were BOOBS and his voice was higher pitched. There was long red hair. Last but not least the ridiculous outfit. First Apocalypse and now this. What next? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Steve vs. Charlie swashbuckler 2010-03-22 12:12 am UTC (link)
	Steve had, naturally enough, drawn Charlie as an opponent. "You are going down, buddy mine," he taunted. When the signal was given, he was already in motion, firing a series of explosive arrows in rapid succession. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Re: Steve vs. Charlie borntolead 2010-03-22 12:16 am UTC (link)
	Charlie laughed. "You can try, Bowhead. You can try." And he was on his feet, ducking, rolling, and holding up his shield to dodge the arrows. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Zak vs. Hal omni_absorber 2010-03-22 01:20 am UTC (link)
	Of course Zak got thrown with the God. S/he wasn't backing down, though. "I'm gonna mess you up as best I can," he said. Zak's skin turned the color of the arena as s/he absorbed the properties. S/he was wearing a red bikini. No footwear. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Re: Zak vs. Hal stone_bear 2010-03-22 08:53 am UTC (link)
	Halbjorn doesn't respond, beyond a low growl. Commanded to fight, and finally let off his chains, he'll do so. Ignoring the threat, she launches herself at Zak. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	James next_avenger 2010-03-22 01:46 am UTC (link)
	James was still getting used to the new body when it was "his" turn to fight. S/He stepped into the arena. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	James vs. Vincent quitethecharmer 2010-03-22 02:10 am UTC (link)
	Vincent strides forward, brandishing her sorceress' staff. "Nothing personal, of course. All glory must be given to the Empress, so I won't hold back." She hovers a few inches off the ground as the staff crackles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Misha mishaloganovich 2010-03-22 06:53 pm UTC (link)
	S/he didn't this body to fight in, but the Empress' wishes were all that mattered. Misha waited his turn, determined to do all in her power to further the Empress' glory. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Re: Misha cosmic_son 2010-03-22 10:56 pm UTC (link)
	Iason is still curious about this body, and something in his mind is struggling with the concept of fighting for the Empress' glory. He knows he should, and will, but it still feels a very odd purpose for him... her... he's not sure, really, if the form matters. S/he hovers into the arena, remaining about a foot off the ground, eyeing Misha. "So..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Meanwhile.... invisigirl 2010-03-25 01:28 am UTC (link)
	Valeria knocked on the door of Avenger's Mansion. James was supposed to pick her up to go to the movies three hours ago, and he hadn't called. This wasn't like him. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Re: Meanwhile.... aerosmithette 2010-03-25 01:32 am UTC (link)
	Akilah answered the door to see Valeria Richards. She hadn't met her yet. "Yes?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Meanwhile, at the X-Mansion lytaworthington 2010-03-25 01:38 am UTC (link)
	Lyta entered the boys' hallway, also looking for Misha. She stopped when she saw Rose. "You wouldn't have happened to see Misha around anywhere, have you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Round Two: Charlie vs. Hal borntolead 2010-03-25 07:48 pm UTC (link)
	Fresh from his fight with Steve, Charlie stood in the arena, waiting for his next opponent. He gripped his shield. This fight would be different from his one with Steve. This time, he was going up against a God. A grin crossed his face. God or not, Charlie was ready. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Re: Round Two: Charlie vs. Hal stone_bear 2010-03-25 08:00 pm UTC (link)
	Halbjorn has had a little time to settle, and getting some of the frustration and battle urge out in the other fight helped, but she's still chomping at the bit to fight again, and keep fighting as long as necessary. She grins savagely back at Charlie, then rushes with no further delay. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2010-03-26 10:33 pm UTC (link)
	It took some time, but the Avengers and guests caught up to the Empress' ship. It had been fully repaired since the last time they had been there. The Quinjet docked with the ship and the Avengers disembarked. They had given the pretense of being there for the games. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	wild_rose 2010-03-26 11:55 pm UTC (link)
	Rose smiled one of her crazy smiles. "If this is anything like what happened to us..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2010-03-27 03:16 am UTC (link)
	Halbjorn is chomping at the bit by the time the third match comes around, looking forward to a serious challenge here. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	ng_independent 2010-03-28 05:08 am UTC (link)
	"What is the MEANing of THIS?" the Empress demanded as the female Avengers burst into her throne room. "How DARE you barge in HERE!" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	wild_rose 2010-03-28 05:09 am UTC (link)
	"All right, lady," Rose growled, "give us back the boys, and nobody gets stabbed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Battle of Champions ng_independent 2010-03-28 06:32 am UTC (link)
	Ten minutes later the Empress and her warriors were assembled on one side of the arena. All the "girls" flanked her and stood ready for the battle they were about to watch. The female Avengers and guests were assembled on the other side of the arena. "CHAMPION! Go forth and do battle in MY name! Win THIS battle for your Empress!" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Re: Battle of Champions wild_rose 2010-03-28 06:39 am UTC (link)
	Rose couldn't keep the surprise off her face. "Is that...?" Her expression turned into a small grin. "Oh, I am never letting him live this down. Please, tell me, someonebody's getting pictures." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Aftermath stone_bear 2010-03-30 12:07 am UTC (link)
	Halbjorn is mostly too tired at this point to care about the terms. The sooner this is done with, the better. Still, she nods at the apology. "Thou hast naught to apologize for. We wert all controlled. Besides..." she adds, paying Vincent one of the higher complements available in Halbjorn-speak. "Thou wert a worthy challenge." (Reply to this)(Parent)
