The Fallen
Back, yet again. I must tell you that the people of the X-Men government are different from ours. And I must add that banshees that arrive before something bad happens, like the 8 foot tall monkey seen in New Hampshire, or the black panthers that walked the streets of Indiana, two days before the 9/11 attacks, are not my theory, they are the theory of John Keel, and Loren Coleman. I must also give credit to John Keel and Loren Coleman for giving me the inspiration to my story. Just an FYI, John Keel wrote Mothman Prophecies, what the movie is based on. Now I must also tell you that I do not own X-Men, But I do own Raptor, Camouflage, Trex, Blade, Reptilian, Lupin, Tigris, Melissa, Leo, Scelene, Demon, Illusionist, Edger, Dick Walker and Ian Thompson. Enjoy
P.S. story is R for swears and some graphic detailing.
Chapter 1
'By the last breath of the fourth winds blow'
'Better raise your ears'
'The sound of hooves knocks at your door'
'Lock up your wife and children now'
'It's time to wield the blade '
'For now you have got some company'
-Metallica- The Four Horsemen-
"Trex old friend, nice of you to accept my invitation." In a 15th century castle, powerful mutants are all in one room. Hired by Magneto, who blood thirsty for power joined back with the Acolytes, hired new mutants, stronger mutants, but was taken from power along with the rest of the original Acolytes.
"Tigris, you have to understand that there are mutants who can take you down." Trex said.
"I will be ready to fight anyone that comes my way." He immerged from the shadows to reveal himself. He was a tall muscular Caucasian man, deep voiced, who like his name states, is half tiger, half man. A striped tail lashed back and forth, claws on each finger. Stripes all over his body, and gleaming fangs.
"Tigris is strong Trex, he will beat the X-Men, they are nothing but children." Mystique came up from behind Tigris.
"They are tenacious, Raptor, who I trained well has at least three different types of glocks with her, if she kept them. And her brother is a powerful morpher. The only way to kill him it to stab him in the heart or slice off hi head." Trex walked over to the other side of the Library and put his hand on the bookshelf. "The wood is so old, but so strong. It is easier to break when young, and not hardened with age. The same goes for the X-Men. Get rid of the adults, and let the children fight on their own."
"We can get rid of them. Like Nigel said, they are just children, easier to break."
"But Mystique, do you really want to kill all the X-Men, since of course one of them is your son." A mutant walked up to Mystique. She was a normal mutant, but that's what was odd about her. She looked just like Kurt, only she was a female, about 20, and her tail was longer and spiked at the end along with a spade. Her ears were longer too, with earrings going all the way up. Her eyes were like red rubies, and her hair was snow white.
"I would keep my mouth shut Melissa." Mystique warned.
Melissa backed down.
"Aye mates, we should get goin, since we have things all planned out. The next week will be whacko."
Tobius was a cheetah, ready to spring. In the tall grasses of a prairie he lay in wait, watching an alien from a Sierra Rip. For a month they have been fight this, and for about a week it has been quiet.
Tobius came closer until he was ten yards from the beast that looked like a cross between a giraffe and a camel. Then he ran. Accelerating to 60 miles per hour in 6 seconds. The beast noticed and ran. Tobius was at the side of it in ten seconds. He looked into it's black eyes then ran ahead of it, to veer it in the other direction.
When it turned right Tobius gave up the chase, waiting for Kathy to spring up and grab it. But she wasn't there. The creature kept running, but soon stopped. Tobius morphed into his normal form.
"Raptor!" Scott yelled. The grass dissolved into hard metal floor, and the blue sky turned into a gray ceiling.
Kathy ran into the Danger Room. "Sorry I'm late." She looked around. They all stared at her with looks of disgust. "Okay I'm too late."
"I hope you have a good excuse zis time Kathy." Kurt said
"I do."
"Same one as yesterday, and the day before that and the day before that." Kitty said
"Um…How about a rain check." Kathy smiled weakly.
"Again she does it. I know another power for you Kathy; laziness." Scott said
"Ooo big word." Kathy said sarcastically.
They all left. "Oh come on, can't you all get that stick shoved up your crack removed."
"Kat two words. Not Now." He walked away.
"Fine be butt munchers."
"That's 80's saying." Kitty said
"Your point."
"Our point is scaly, get here on time. Screw the library and your research." Logan said. They left Kathy hanging.
Kurt was laying on his bed, half asleep. It was late and for the whole night he was up. For a week everything was quiet. No aliens, no new mutants, no threatening, just peace and quiet, until he went out with Amanda tonight. A Sierra Rip opened up right in front of the restaurant, and the alien jumped right through the window, killing a man. Of course Kurt wasn't about to shrug his shoulders and walk away, so he stabbed the thing in the throat, image inducer died, left, and the night went to hell from there. He looked out his window. "Life is unfair. Fate is a finical zing."
"That's what I've been telling you people for the past four months." Kathy said
"Your still up?"
"Research on Indrid Cold." Kurt stared at her.
"Okay I'll bite."
"A person, or thing related to the Mothman. Complicated."
"Sounds like it." Kurt sat up
"Yup. So many people use that name for commercial reasons." Kathy went into his room. "So your date didn't go to well, huh"
"It vas horrible. I'd be lucky if Amanda ever vants to talk to me again."
"Too late to get sappy." Kathy yawned. "I think I'll do what Trex used to tell me. Go to bloody bed, or I'll hit your arse so hard you'll cry." Kathy smiled and walked out Kurt's door. Kurt sighed. He is going to dread tomorrow.
"If Bigfoot went up against the Loch ness monster, who would win?" Tobius asked.
"Stupidest question ever goes to… Tobius Milosh Hunter!" Kathy said
"Your middle name is Milosh?" Kurt grinned
"Shut up." Tobius walked in front of Kathy an Kurt. The trio were on there way to school.
"Make me." Kathy said
"Make me, make you." Tobius returned
"Make me, make you, make me." Kathy said
"Make me, make you, make me, make you."
"Make me, make you, make me, make you, make me."
"Make me, make you, make me, make you, make me, make you." Tobius said
Kurt just stared, but soon got annoyed.
"Make me, ma-" Kathy tried to finish
"Vill you both shut up!" Kurt yelled
Kathy and Tobius looked at each then said in unison "Make us." The twins laughed
"Twins, I ask myself 'vhy?'" Kurt said in despair
"Don't sweat it blue boy." Kathy said.
"You don't have a girlfriend zat might vant to tear your brain stem out."
"You'll be fine fuzz ball." Kathy nudged him
"Fuzz ball? Wait till I tell the others." Tobius sneered
"Tob, you better keep zat to us and only us." Kurt warned
"Or what? The fuzz ball will hurt me?" Tobius laughed. Kurt lunged at him and grabbed his shirt collar. "Fuzz ball be dangerous."
"Let him go blue boy." Kathy started to walk away.
"You better not call me zat around anyone else, especially Amanda." Kurt let go of Tobius and walked to Kathy.
"Oh please, I'm careful. I don't let things slip. If I called you blue boy at school, kids would get suspicious."
"Last thing we need." Tobius came up between them.
As they walked to school, the bell hadn't wrung yet so there were students outside still. As the three of them walked into campus grounds, the whole crowd of students hushed.
"Ooookayyy." Tobius said
As they made there way through the crowd, they could here whispers. Kurt saw Kitty wave to them and they hurried over.
"What's with the silent treatment?" Kathy asked
"Didn't you here? The vice president and president are in the hospital for gun wounds, and a bad cut on the arm." Bobby said
"You're kidding?" Tobius said.
"No, and they say a group of mutants did it, along with blowing up half of the White House." Bobby butted in yet again
"That explains why there was odd animal activity, banshees. They saw all black alligators over twenty feet long. Black panthers in the Midwest, and a huge condor flying over Arizona. It all happened before this was going to happen. That's what happened before the Oklahoma bombing, or 9/11. Banshees." Kathy said
"Well that helps without asking what banshees are." Kitty said
"I thought banshees were a Scottish thing?" Scott said
"Yes and no." Kathy replied
"So know za school hates us? More zen before?" Kurt said nervously
"Time to live with it. I would just drop out, but then my career of being a paleontologist would be down the drain." Kathy said
"You want to be a paleontologist, not a cryptozoologist?" Scott said amazed
"There is no classes for cryptozoology, you have to take zoology, then master it, and then you have to take a whole bunch of folklore classes, then major it. It's simpler just becoming a paleontologist."
"Sounds like it."
Kathy looked into the crowd and noticed a new kid. "Who's that?"
"Who?" Scott asked
"The kid with white hair." She said pointing.
"Oh I don't know, probably just some new kid, why?"
"Because, something tells me he's different."
