+Meeting the Mercers+
A pair of emerald green eyes stared out of the window of the passenger's side of a car as they drove down a long endless highway. The girl who sat in the passenger's seat was about seventeen with long black hair and blue streaks running through it. Her hair was tied up in a messy bun with only two of the blue streaks left hanging in her face giving it a beautiful frame to the rather pale white-faced girl. Her rosy red lips were cast down into a frown and her black eyebrows following suit in a way. Her nose wasn't to long but could be considered it in certain angles. All along the girls ears were different piercing. Around the girl's neck were assortments of different necklaces, maybe nine in all, with different pendants. There were two crosses, one made up of crystal the other black marble with a metal form of Jesus on it, one small beaded necklace with a black and white tinker bell, one pirate skull necklace made of metal, one black cat necklace, two golden heart lockets with one that had a design of ivy around it saying 'Love Always', one dragon pendent necklace made of black marble, and the last was a black ribbon choker with silver sparkles covering it and a small crystal star hanging from it. The girl was wearing a black tank top over a tight formfitting black shirt with sleeves even if you didn't see them because of her leather jacket. Her long black baggy pants that weren't so baggy around the waist, not meaning she was fat since she was far from it, had two metal chains hanging from the pocket with fake crystal jewels on them.
"Dianna, Dianna, DIANNA," the person next to her screeched trying to get her attention but Dianna merely uttered two words that made the person furious and yell her name one more time that almost made Dianna go deaf.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT," Dianna said screaming at the person next to her as if mocking him for trying to piss her off.
"I wanted to tell you that we'll be arriving at the Mercer home in a twenty minutes at the least, I wanted to know if you might want me to stop so you can change into something better than what you are wearing now because of this special occasion," the man beside her sneered. Dianna hated when people got that look on their face and if he had been somebody other than a cop she would have burned him right then and there. Dianna continued to mess around with her Zippo lighter before turning to him and say sarcastically, "No but if you want to I can wait in the car while you change into a pretty pink dress." Dianna received a glare from the policeman who just muttered a few curse words before turning his head back to the road. Dianna smirked at her accomplishment at finally making the stupid man leave her alone.
"You know just because you're a mutant doesn't mean you're superior then me young lady and I have the right to take you right back to jail where you really belong. I know it wasn't accident when you killed those innocent people, and believe me if I had had my way you would be in the electric chair by now," he said.
"Well I hope you achieve your life long dream but heads up you can't touch me remember. If I remember correctly your boss and Professor Xavier told you specifically not to harm me in any way and if you do so happen to harm me I'm aloud to harm you back, got that officer," Dianna said getting up in his face. He just scowled at her and once again turned his head back to the road. Dianna went back to staring out the window again thinking about what had led up to this point in time when she would have to be put into another foster home but was soon pulled from her thoughts as they stopped at a gas station and the officer got out of the car and said, "Don't you leave this car."
"Yes Mom," Dianna said sarcastically and then turned around and added, "and I told you not to call me by that name, my name is Lightning."
"Humph you don't look like lightning to me, Dianna," he said adding emphasis to her name and ooh how she wanted to burn him right there on the spot, but she couldn't and so she held her powers at bay and muttered just a few curse words before looking forward as she crossed her arms across her chest. The police officer smirked as he slammed the door shut and walked off into the gas station. Dianna flipped her Zippo lighter lid open and close but soon found herself staring intently at it. It was metal with a face of a lion painted on it along with her mutant name on the back. She heard the car door slam beside her and the sound of leather moving. She scowled. She wanted to burn this police officer so bad but she held it back as she felt something cold getting thrown onto her lap as well as something cardboard. She looked down and found a bottle of Dr. Pepper and a box of Whoppers. She looked up at him and raised an eyebrow and he smiled and said, "See I'm not that bad kiddo, I thought you might want something to snack on and knowing my teenage daughter she likes those as something to snack on whenever we're on road, even if they aren't healthy snacks." Dianna let at least a small crack of a smile spread on her face and said, "How old is your daughter."
"Sixteen," he said starting the car.
"I see, any boyfriends yet," Dianna asked already knowing the answer before he said it just by hearing it through his mind.
"No, more like girlfriends, she just came out to us about being a…lesbian," he said and Dianna smirked and said, "and I'm guessing daddy here doesn't approve of it."
"No Daddy here doesn't like it that much," and with that it ended their conversation and Dianna began to munch on the candy she had and drink most of the soda she had down. See Dianna was a mutant and she had five main mutations, one was being a telepath which she barely never used unless she wanted to piss someone off by knowing something personal about them or by using it to gain information she needed to know, the second she could basically manipulate fire but could not create it as hard as she may try, the third was that she could heal herself almost instantly but if she had to much damage like bullet wounds or broken bones it could take up to three days to heal completely and then she be completely new and she also could heal others but that was even barely since she had yet to harness it, and her final mutation was having metal claws come out from her knuckles but she rarely used them since it took a day for the openings, where they came out, to heal. She could also manipulate water and that was her main mutation since she used it a lot along with fire following closely behind it. She basically called herself Lightning because she was quick to judge, torment, and hate as many things as possible when first introduced to them and she was also the first to throw the first punch in a battle.
Dianna looked out the window and noticed that they were entering the city and only in a couple of minutes did they begin to pass by houses. She sighed knowing that she would be there in just a few minutes and she was correct when the officer stopped the car in front of a rather homey looking house. The officer got out of the car and shut the door and then walked to her side and opened her door since she was so lost in thought that she hadn't even thought of opening it herself. She got out of the car a looked around as the officer pulled her bags out of the back of the car.
"Come on," he said as he walked ahead of Dianna and toward the front door of the house. Dianna followed suit and stopped just behind him as he began to knock on the door. A few seconds later a woman walked out and smiled at him and said, "It's good to see you again Lt. Green."
"You as well Miss. Mercer, I'm here with your new case, I mean child, foster child," Dianna rose an eyebrow at him and scowled. She wasn't a case she was a teenager who happened to be a bit overly tempered when it came to pissing her off. Just because she burned those two guys balls off when they had shot her friend didn't mean she was a new case it jut meant she was a foster kid being put in foster home to live out the rest of her days until she left to go out into the real world.
"Well where is this terrible girl they keep telling me not to adopt," Miss Mercer said with a happy tone that made Dianna confused.
"Right here, Dianna this is Evelyn Mercer your new Foster mother, and Miss Mercer this is your new adopted daughter Dianna Sparks or probably now considered Dianna Mercer," Lt. Green said with a smile, probably glad to finally be getting rid of Dianna.
"Well she doesn't look dangerous at all, I don't know why you were making such a big deal about her. It's nice to meet you dear," Miss Mercer said as she caught Dianna off guard by hugging her tightly. Dianna hesitantly hugged her back and then pulled away and said, "I prefer to be called Lightning, sorry if this bonehead here didn't get it in his thick skull as many times I reminded him which was probably the whole trip here." Miss Mercer smiled and patted her on the shoulder and somehow the woman's smile calmed Dianna down and reminded her of her own mother's smiles.
"Well I'll be off then seeing as how you already have the paperwork for this one Miss Mercer oh and heads up, she's a mutant that's why we didn't want you to take her," Dianna scowled at him and threw over her shoulder, "You know being a mutant means I can kick your ass any day bonehead."
"It also means you'll end back up in jail faster then you can say mutant if you even touch my ass," Dianna looked at him with a disgusted face and said, "Who said I wanted to touch your ass anyway, I don't know where it's been. I mean for all I know it could have been rubbing itself all over something that would even make a dog turn up it's nose to." Lt. Green glared at her and then turned to Miss Mercer and said, "Like I said before, she's all yours now." Miss Mercer thanked him and then turned back to Dianna and said, "I don't like him that much either, honey, I would have said the same thing if I was your age as well." Dianna let out a small giggle as Miss Mercer lead her into the house and into the living room where four guys were staring out the window at Lt. Green who was currently cussing up a storm about saying that he rather have killed Dianna than let her live. Dianna smirked and listened as Miss Mercer cleared her throat. The four guys jumped from the window and stood up all except one who fell off the couch and onto the floor.
"Boys this is Dianna, Dianna these here are my other sons, that one standing closest to the couch is Angel, the one standing next to him is Bobby, beside him is Jerry, and the one currently on the floor is the youngest of them all, Jack," Dianna had a frown on her face again and nodded as they all stared at her.
"Dianna how old are you again I forgot," Miss Mercer asked.
"I'm seventeen," Dianna said and then added, "and my names Lightning not Dianna, I haven't used that name since I left home."
"Well Lightning, you're about the same age as Jack over here so I think you'll get along just fine," Dianna heard someone snort at what she just said and turned to the one called Bobby and glared at him as if daring him to say something stupid and he probably being the stupid one he was did, "Yeah mom they'll end up in each other's bed before the week is over, then again cracker jack here is a fairy and they might not seeing that he is gay." Dianna searched through Jack's mind and then blurted out, "He's not." All eyes turned to her and she dared them to say something stupid to her and once again Bobby did, "What you some kind of telepath or something."
"Actually I'm a mutant and yes I can search through your minds if I want. I just wanted to see if he was so I checked and he's not, though he is still a virgin surprisingly," everyone in the room burst out laughing while Jack turned a deep shade of red. He got up off the floor and headed up the stairs not even looking back.
"You know Ma I think I might like this new addition to the family," Bobby said walking over to Dianna and wrapping an arm around her shoulders and leading her over to the other guys.
"I thought you would," Miss Mercer said.
"So you're really a mutant like those ones they talk about on T.V. all the time," Angel asked. Dianna nodded and then Angel crossed his arms and smirked as he said, "Prove it." Dianna normally didn't like showing off her 'special abilities,' but she was being challenged and she never backed down from a challenge. She took out her Zippo lighter and clicked it open the fire remained where it was for a few seconds before she called it to her hand where she moved it around a bit to show them that it did not burn her and then she said, "It sometimes make's me feel special knowing I can touch something that has been untouchable since the day it was first created." Bobby patted her on the back and said, "When it comes around to Fourth of July we'll be making sure you'll be lighting the fireworks." Dianna smiled and nodded. Jerry the one who had been quite so far said, "So is that all you can do, or can you do more."
"That," she said as she extinguished the fire by closing her hand, "you'll have to find out in time." Jerry smiled at her and said, "Always liked surprises, well I better be off mom, Camille and me need to go see the doctor about our baby."
"You do that Jerry," Miss Mercer said as she patted Jerry on the back as he walked by her and kissed her cheek.
"Yeah I better go to, Sofi and me got a date and I can't miss it," Angel said.
"When are you going to get rid of La Vida Loca, I'm tired of having her around here," Bobby said as he stormed after Angel. Dianna smiled as she turned to Miss Mercer who was shaking her head with a smile on her face as well.
"Come on I'll show you where your room is Lighting," Dianna nodded and picked up her things and followed Miss Mercer up stairs.
Okay this is my first time writing a Four Brothers story but not an X-Men story to let you know. I know some of you are thinking I'm crazy because I'm putting them both together but hey, it's just some idea that popped into my head and wouldn't leave so I decided to make it into a story. I hope some of you people out there like it. I'll appreciate any reviews but if your just going to flame me then get lost, because if you don't like a story then just don't read it. By flaming a story you are merely wasting your precious time you could be using to read a better story. So I really hope you've enjoyed the first chapter and I'll update as soon as I can because I'm also going to be busy with my other stories. Oh and to let you all know this will be taking place Before the Movie, During the Movie, and maybe a bit after the movie. Oh and the first part of the story takes place around the time in the first movie of X-Men as well just to warn you for upcoming chapters.
