In this story the abilities of some mutants may vary,but mostly just the main two characters Pietro and Kitty. Pietro Maximoth may seem OOC sometimes, so may Scott and a few others. Kitty Pryde's ShadowCat name will be changed to Ghost very soon. I have not been able to watch the entire series of X-Men Evolution, so any information that has been excluded of forgotten I apologize. Also I need to remind the readers Of "The Stuff of Villains" where at the end Pietro was appointed the new leader of BrotherHood.
Rush
Kitty threw the test in her locker. It wasn't a bad test it was perfect. She was the A+ student of the institute. She was Ms. Innocent. What she really wanted was a chance to show what she could do. With her new powers she was able to do anything. But non of the X-Men paid any attention for her to even be noticed enough to know that she had new powers.'Not even the Professor!'She practiced on her own, she didn't tell anyone.
She stared at the now empty hall.' Great! Now I'm like totally late!'
She flipped her hair and kicked herself. Then slammed her locker shut, and slumped to the floor. If any of the X-Men had any idea what she could do, that she wasn't just a defense character but a hell of an offense character, then she was so sure they wouldn't leave her behind on missions like they had today.
She decided to skip the rest of the day, considering that she could probably afford to since she was the straight A+ student at the institute. Hell, She was even passing GYM!She got up and started walking away. Just then the communicator rang. She froze, thinking that she had been caught by a telepathic. She hesitantly brought her black phone to her ear," Like, H-Hello!"
" Kitty! It's It's a trap! D-Don't follow Pietro! What-Whatever you do- don't follow-" Scott voice was scratchy and it seemed as if a fight was going on in the background.
" He's right." said a voice that made her jump. She closed her phone instantly.
Her eyes softened. " He is?" She didn't entirely hate Pietro. She might dislike Pietro a lot, but she also did have some respect for him to. When she had been dating Lance, she would see Pietro come and go and was always like a father figure to Toad and Blob. He had changed during the last year into a different person. Less annoying, more serious, and he had become his fathers worker. He was very sensitive to the mutant situation. Kitty knew that he wasn't just following his father out of loyalty. He truly believed in what he was doing. What gave Kitty more respect for the guy, was the way he treated HIS team. He made the BrotherHood really act like brothers. Doing average in school, a clean house, and Toad and Lance both had jobs. Rumor even had it that Blob was on a diet.
Pietro grinned wider. She nervously placed her hair behind her ear. She had got rid of the huge pony tail and now placed it half up with a straight line. Her bangs had mostly grown out except for two strings she kept out to frame her face. She had thick black eyeliner and mascara on, but that was it. She had on a pair of black jeans with chains, and a dark pink corset looking tank, along with black sneakers with a pink strip. She had hoop earring's, and a silver necklace to match. lots of rings, and black no finger gloves with a pink line at the tip of the finger holes.
"Uh, Pietro . . . I should . . . Like really get to class. . . "
He continued to smirk as he neared her. She backed up." No?" She asked nervously, face flushed.
He bite his lip for a split second and shook his head no with the same sexy dangerous smirk." No,"He whispered.
"Oh, OK, then I'm just like . .. going to . . uh RUN!" She sprinted backwards, and made off in a run. Then cursed herself for forgetting Pietro's power, when he had run in front of her.
"Psst, Psst, Kitten. " He neared her again. " I'm so disappointed." He said and neared her again.
" Yeah well-" She then jumped and kicked him so fast and so hard that he didn't even see her.
He looked up at her scared face. " Damn!" He spoke, She laughed nervously again and phased through the wall .
Kitty gasped for air. She had been running for a while, and had ended up in the basement of the school which very well reminded her of a Freddy Kruger movie. The first one actually, where Tina was running was running in the beginning of her dream. She was on a metal bridge/stair/ she didn't know where. Running past pipes and poles and the sound that they were making.
Kitty ran phased past the pipes, not wanting to take the time to actually move past them. Pietro was right on her tail. 'How big is like this schools basement. Do they have no consideration for the horror movies. God! This place is so icksome. I should -"
Her train of thought broke at the wall. She could phase through it, but she didn't want to risk going into a classroom with a bunch of ignorant students screaming their ass off. She took a deep breath, as she turned around. Pietro was already there, with his glare and smirk." What's a matter Kitten?"
Her face flushed. " That's like not my name!" She screamed and jumped on a pipe and hit his face his her shoe, He stumbled back and she tackled him on the ground. He kicked her stomach and she landed on her feet, clutching it.
" I like the name Kitten." He said getting up, He pointed a finger to nothing. "It's cute, it's so. . . innocent and non threatening. . . so you." She didn't bother to mention that he had just called her cute, for it said it as an insult. A hidden message that she wouldn't be anything but cute and innocent. Never beautiful or sexy. She backed up as he neared her.
" Come on Kitten. I promise that you won't be hurt." He spoke lightly and dangerously at the same time. She wondered why she felt as though this promise was true. She could not picture Pietro truly hurting her which was pathetic because she could very picture the love of her life, and ex-boyfriend Lance Alvers, hurting her. Pietro reached his hand out. She stared at it a moment before realizing what she was considering. "Like no way!" She jumped on the railing next to her down to the lower part of the basement. He ran and followed met her there." Oh my gosh!" She said, and went to kick him. But he blocked. " Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice Shame on me." He started near her again.
" Just follow me over to your friends. I promise. . . " He changed his expression to his sincere look. She got out of her stance for a moment. "I won't let anything happen to you." He spoke to her with almost determination.
"P-Pietro?" She asked unsure.
He smiled sweetly. "Kitten, I promise. And when I promise something I promise it."
She frowned. " I- Like DON'T BELIEVE YOU!" She said as she backed up as he neared her. She felt the cold wall next her. She mentally smacked herself for being backed into a corner twice. Suddenly Pietro was right in front of her in a second.
" Stop it!" She screamed, He then in .5 of a second, placed her hands above her head. Her eyes went wide. He was so much taller then her. So tall that her head reached only to the start of his chest. His breathing was steady, and when she looked up he was looking at her strangely, but his eyes never left her. Suddenly his lips were on hers.
She may have disliked the way he treated girls, may have hated the name calling, the constant picking on her friends. But...
He let go of her hands to pull her closer.
... at this moment, when their tongues swapped passionately, she could very well tolerate him. She had never been kissed like she had been kissed by Pietro Maximoth.
Guess he was well liked by the Ladies for a reason. Her right hand place on his hair, tugging slightly, fingers entangled in his silver locks. Her tongue rubbed his and he placed his hand on the small of her back to push her body closer to him. He was skinny but built, which though seemed a little weird to Kitty- she wasn't complaining.
When he gripped her, he really grabbed her. And even though the need for air was great, he seemed to be determined and possessive to the point that he didn't care that she might need to air. His tongue swapped with hers and he growled when she bit his lip ever so caught her lips in his again and smothered them with his, crashing them and making them swell.
He finally pulled apart and she kept her eyes closed, trying to regain balance.
His hand traced her face. " Chin up,Kid." He said and grabbed her hand, and before Kitty could figure out what he was doing, Pietro had started running.
The sensation of running faster then the wind was a thrill Kitty could admit she could get used to . She saw blurry colors, and the wind percied her skin. She loved it, her hair out and rushing. She forgot that he was leading her into a trap and she forgot that he was the enemy, she forgot about how neglectful the team was being of her and forgot that Lance and her were done. She forgot about Scott, and Jean, and Wolverine, Kurt, Storm, Evan, Rouge she forgot that they had excluded her from this mission and that they were endanger.
She smiled and entangled her fingers in Pietro's and blushed when he squeezed her hand. She smiled and giggled a little. She couldn't really laugh because of the wind. He turned his head to look and saw her looking around at the blurry world as he continued to run. 'She's lovin' This! . . . whoa Kitten, never took ya for the type.'
When he finally stopped in front of his father's place, Kitty looked so disappointed.
"Rush Kitten?" Grinned Pietro.
She flushed, still amazed at the sensation of being able to move so fast. She was smiling brightly. Pietro watched her with a smirk. " Pietro! That was like so totally amazing? It was a rush! A thrill! It was so - breathtaking! Do you feel that way every time you- wow! Boy Oh Boy! That was like the most amazing, It was like , there's like no words to describe it! " She said with such a amazed voice. She wasn't even looking at Pietro when she was speaking. She was sort of pacing. While she spoke about how amazing his power was he couldn't help but check her over. It was hard to find someone so short with great legs and nice curves. She didn't have much of a butt but he wasn't much for the bottom anyway. Her hair looked better in it's new style and the tank top was very cute.
' Whoa, Tabby hated it, so had Rouge,Wanda, heck Toad hated it. Everyone else complained about not being able to breath and that running with me made them dizzy. But the one girl I figured hates even touching me loves running with again, she didn't mind touching me a few minutes ago.'
" It was wonderful!" She said. Then her whole face changed as she realized where they were. A mansion, old and creepy. " Where are they?" She whispered.
" Inside." He reached his hand out, and she tried not look excited, or rush to take it. But she did, she sprinted and took his hand. He chuckled before running off inside with her.
When they stopped Kitty's breath held.
" Kitty! I told you it was a trap! Don't you listen!" Scott screamed. Kitty wasn't listening, she was looking at the situation. Scott and Jean were in tubes that reminded Kitty of the time when Magnito tried recruiting Scott and his brother to his team. Kurt wrapped in a Metal that she could only assume would stop him from teleporting. Storm's eyes were covered, and Wolverine was pinned to a large magnet. Jean and Xaviour had their heads wrapped in a metal helmet much like Magnito's. Evan, and Rouge were knocked out and tied in their own tube.
Pryo, Remy, Iron, Colosses, and Mysteeq all were surrounding her.
" Ya see we were going down the list of the chain of command. " Mysteeq said, her hand on Magnito's arm. " Technically you came before Spyke, and NightCrawler in the X-Men chain due to maturity. But in our chain of powers and such you ranked a little lower"
Kitty flushed, comprehending what he just said. The x-men would have picked her before Spyke and Nightcrawler, just because they believe she can handle leadership a bit better then those two. But Magnito saw people for their powers, and Kitty's power of walking through walls, wasn't enough to threaten him. Kitty flushed even more when she realized that she was not invited to the mission today, which means the X-men had picked Spyke and Nightcrawler over her as well.
" Relax Kitten." Pietro said tugging their linked hands, making Kitty finally aware that they were still entangled, and placed her slightly behind him. " I made you a promise did I not." She bit her bottom lip and leaned closer to his back, so close that she could feel his sweater brush her cheek."Not my name"
" Alright She's here, I did what you asked. You can't lock her up, she phases through everything." Pietro said, eyeing his father with hate.
" Your right there Speedy, Magnito say something before he runs away from us." said Remy going over, He reached his hand out to Kitty's face but Pietro turned his head slightly and replied " I'm not going to run, but touch her and you better." Remy recognized the tone in his voice and he stepped down.
" Leave her alone!" Scott screamed. " She can't handle this and you know it! Leave her alone!"
"Stop! Let her go!" Jean screamed. Storm couldn't move or speak, and everyone else was knocked out.
Kitty looked up with anger and phased her hand out of Pietro's, he turned to look at her.
"Damn it Pryde! Don't grow a backbone now!" He said. She just grabbed his shoulder and kicked him to the right with a large upper kick.
"You sure she's one of the weakest?!" Pryo asked as he started fire up. She phased right through it and grabbed Pryo's ear and tossed him to the side. She phased through Remy's card and the explosion it caused. She did a back flip and unexpectedly tripped Gambit. She then ran up to Magnito but instead of facing him Mysteeq came in front of him.
" Ha, seems the little Kitty-Cat does have some moves. But in the end your just a weak little girl who likes to watch the big boys play. "
Kitty scowled. Suddenly her eyes went white, not like Storms, because there was a tint of grey in the pupils. " I'm not weak!" She screamed, and then she disappeared. Mysteeq's eyes went wide and she was then thrown to the ground. Kitty was no where to be seen. There was no trace of her at all.
" Where'd she go?" asked Scott, looking around.
" Professor?" Asked Jean." Since when can she-"
" I have no idea."
Mysteeq got up and skimmed the room over. She was then punched in the mouth. She swung around the air. It took a good fifteen minutes for her to get a hit in. Kitty fell to the floor coming visible, though her eyes still in their white/grey. She looked back up at the shape shifter and rolled over her head into a handstand and back on her feet.
" You can't even control your weak powers!" She laughed.
"I'm NOT WEAK!" she screamed and did a triple kick into her face.
Mysteeq fell to the ground and didn't get back then ran to Magnito who laughed at the attempt. He started to move metal at her.
His amused expression changed when she continued walking towards him, phasing through everything.
She was nearing him and he didn't back up , knowing that would show weakness.
"Let them go!" She laughed again.
" Your just a Ghost. " He said .
" Let them go or I'll-"
" You'll do what?" He asked spitefully as he neared her. She moved back frightened at the murderer in front of her.
" LEAVE HER ALONE!" Screamed Scott, banging on the glass.
She shuddered as she kept moving back. She fell to the floor, tripping over Pyro who groaned in his sleep.
" You aren't weak. Your friends are wrong." He said. Then his hand reached for her. " If you join us, then no one here will take you for granted."
" We don't take her for granted" Jean said.
Kitty wasn't listening she was looking up at Magnito as if considering.
" Kitty?" Asked Rouge coming too. " Kitty?" Repeated Jean.
Kitty was silent as she reached for Magnito's hand. " KITTY!" Screamed Rouge." Don't!"
Kitty then pulled her hand back realizing what she was doing. She shook her head.
" Like, No!" She said, and she jumped Phasing to him. Everyone expected her to move out of his body from his back. But she didn't. They heard him moan in pain and watched him clutch his head. They saw him clutch his stomach, and hold his head. They watched in fear as he aimlessly moved metal towards him.
" I HAVE REASON!" he screamed at nothing. His eyes rolling up.
" JOIN ME!" He started saying things as if he were talking in a conversation. "SEEMS TO TAKE A LIKING TO HIM! DON'T PATRONIZE ME! . . . YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND " Magnito screamed. Suddenly his body shook and Kitty phased out of him, gasping for air. Magnito fell to the ground. She ran up to the control center and pressed a few buttons causing everyone to be free. She looked directly at Scott, a emotionless face and cold eyes that made him flush.
She then looked at the ground. Where everyone of the Acolytes was on the floor. Except for Pietro who Kitty searched for with her eyes for him but he couldn't be seen. Then they all stood still when they saw a silver Blurr come in and out of the room so fast it left everything in the air. By the time the wind stopped, and they were able to open their eyes Everyone of the Acolytes were gone. They heard a car drive off loudly.
" Guess Pietro didn't want them to stick around in fear of the after show." Jean said, standing next to the still unconscious Professor. She then turned her head." Hey Kitty you really showed them. I mean you knocked them out single handed." Kitty didn't answer she looked down and started walking away.
"Kitty!" Scott said in a pleading voice knowing he had done wrong.
She stopped, not turning around at the three mutants. " I'm sorry I like, disobeyed an order. I'll do the extra danger room sessions. " She left still in the silent mode.
They all watched as she made her way to the door.
