Insomnia = plotting
Not sure if it's for RP or some sort of fic. Either way, it's a very (VERY VERY) loose X-Movieverse translation of the Wolverine & Kitty Pryde mini. But with black ops Weapon X rejects and a telepath instead of demon ninjas. Okay, so... not really that much like the mini series.
Project Ogun: Operation Iron and Shadow
The Weapon X project was a failure. The mutant known as Wolverine broke conditioning and destroyed most of his captors. But in the minds of certain people, it was simply a case of poor execution of a good concept. Why eradicate or regulate mutants when they can be used? There are greater threats to freedom than a small portion of the population, some of whom may or may not be dangerous. Mutation not simply an American phenomenon, and its only a matter of time before its enemies make use of the same resource that it has.
It starts when, somewhere else in the world, a mutant is forced against his will by a terrorist organization to carry out a suicide mission. Those certain people who were in the know about Weapon X had seen it coming for years, and decide that now is the time for action.
Enter Project Ogun, named for the Yoruba patron spirit of war, politics, fire, hunting and iron.
Using stolen records of mutant registration databases from all over the world, they pick and chose their ideal operatives. Recruitment is not voluntary, nor it it obvious abduction. Accidents are staged, deaths are faked, training begins.
These people have a telepath on their side. This telepath plants false memories, false loyalties, even brand new identities in some cases. The recruits are sent on missions normal spies or soldiers could not legally or ethically carry out.
But then there's a slip up. Someone, somewhere catches a piece of one of these missions on a cell phone video camera. The video is uploaded and circulates on the Internet. It doesn't take long before someone to see the video and realize their dearly departed friend is not so departed.
Characters Involved:
X-Men (duh)
Shadowcat (recruit)
Several other recruits (Psylocke maybe?)
Pete Wisdom? (Black Air the ones responsible, or watching the bad guys?)
Project Ogun (Smattering of military, scientific and various other experts who want to revist the idea of turning mutants in to weapons, plus at least one loyal mutant telepath)
