Chapter One: Meet Eris

I remembered black skies, the lightning all around me. I remembered each flash, As time began to blur...


"You need to go to America. You'll be safe there, now go!"

"Dad! Dad! Why can't you come with?"

"It's too late for me. Keep hidden!"

"Dad!"


"Dad!" She screams, sitting up as the ship comes to a stop, she brushes her long, black hair out of her eyes.

"Oi! Little miss France, get up. We're here." A man growls, coming down the steps.

"Alright..." She nods, getting ready to leave.

After she makes it out to the deck of the ship to the captain, she ties a scarf around her neck so that it covers the lower part of her face and asks, "So, we're here... Where's here?"

"L.A. Here." He hands her an envelope, "Your father gave you enough money for a month, I don't suggest losing it."

"Alright..." She nods, taking it and stowing it in the inside pocket of her black sweater. She dusts her black mini-skirt off and looks out, "... Okay, here I go."

She steps out onto the busy streets of L.A, 'Whoa... This place is so different...'

She notices a large gathering of people, "Hm... wonder what's that about..." She says, walking over to it.

She listens to the man talk about equality for mutants and she scoffs a little, "There's no way... I had to leave my home because of the human riots..." She looks down, "... maman... papa..."

People start shrieking and running away as a huge statue and fireballs go flying through the air. One of the fireballs hits a couple police cars and it's sent flying towards her. She's frozen there and her eyes widen as she suddenly dissapears and re-appears in a blackish-reddish haze on the other side of the wreck.

"What the hell?" She yells.

"Help!" a man yells as he tries running from a rolling police car.

She catches him and they teleport away from it.

"A-Are you okay?" She asks, looking at him.

"F-Freak!" He yells, running away from her.

"... Your welcome." She frowns deeply a she turns and walks away.

"~Hello, Eris. I see that your powers have manifested.~" She hears in her head.

"Ah! Wh-What? Who said that?" She gasps.

"~Relax, Eris. My name is Emma Frost. I'm a mutant just like you. There are other mutants there, I could use your help in getting them out and away from the Purifiers.~"

"Alright, I'll help in any way I can." She nods.

"~Excellent.~" Emma says.
