Renegade Maverick

by Mavisbaron

Flo Slate had been drifting through life wanting more but not knowing what more she could want. " We were trying to sell something. We were trying to sell our loneliness, and no one was buying. And we were getting tired of dark looming things. We were getting tired of trying to glue words onto doom." Disclaimer: I don't own X-Men or the story line only my OC

"One's first love is always perfect until one meets one's second love"

― Elizabeth Aston,

Flo Slate. A mutant girl. Her hair was long and black, her skin tanned, her eyes blue, her height 5'4, long legs, long arms and a beautiful smile. Born in Russia when she was younger to the leader of one of the very prominent Russian mobsters she was heavily involved in the crime life at a young age. Her father had associated himself with the Hellfire Club and striked a deal to save his daughters life and his life as well. Flo was to join them and Shaw stated that she had a mental ability that Emma should teach her how to use. It was a number of mental abilities connected, she had mental manipulation which was when someone could manipulate, modify and control the thoughts, mindsets and upper brain functions doing a number of things, it was not to ever be confused with telepathy and she had empathy which Emma had as well. Emma and Flo over the years had cultivated a mother daughter relationship and as well as Flo being taught how to fight by Azazel and the two generating a friendship. Flo when she was 15 had entered into a very intimate and toxic relationship with Riptide. She was a calm level-headed girl who's bleeding heart was her weak spot. Riptide was a broken boy that made Flo's heart bleed for him. She tried to save him, but he was poison so as she was saving him or trying to save him, he was slowly eating away at her heart but that never stopped the fire of a first love. Especially not rationality. They were both crazy about each other, killing and hurting and fighting and standing by each other's side. One day Flo had gotten accepted into a university when she was 17 and begged Shaw to let her go. He accepted telling her that the Hellfire Club will always be her real family and Flo left the Hellfire Club in pursuit of a career. When she finished University when she was 18 she went crazy, had an electrical outburst and revealed her mutant ability to generate and control electricity. After that Flo went on a darker path. She never went back to the Hellfire club. She feared falling back into old patterns with Riptide even if she still loved him.
