Evolving Avalanche
Sup, folk's. As you can tell from my other stories, I tend to be a huge fan of Lance "Avalanche" Alvers. I also tend to like stories with a kind of dark and melancholy twist to them. I.e. Darkfire's fic, "When Angels Deserve to Die". So I'm going to depart from my normal insanity powered stories and make a shift to something more dramatic. This is going to be slightly AU, basically following Red Witch's idea in "Parallel Lives", i.e. Magneto's back and Pyro, Gambit and Colossus are all Brotherhood. Basically the story is going to be about Avalanche dealing with the evolution of his powers as he tries to cope with the problems life throws at him. It's kind of a departure for me so be kind with the reviews. Hope ya enjoy.
In case yo didn't know: I own nothing.

"Are you ready Avalanche?" Magneto asked. Lance Alvers stood in the middle of a large, barren field. Magneto hovered above him and the rest of the Brotherhood standing at the sidelines.
"Yea." Lance said solemnly as he adjusted his helmet and focused.
"Then begin!!!" Magneto shouted. Lance rolled his eyes into the back of his head and focused. Even though his eyes were in the back of his head, he still saw everything that was going on. However there was an aura around everything he saw. He could read the seismic energy that the world was emitting. He could feel his body tapping into the very core of the earth, drawing in the seismic energy and store it. He felt all of this in a matter of moments. Then he felt the seismic energy his body was storing, begging to be released. He complied as he unleashed a pulse of energy that moved throughout his body and back into the earth, shaking it too its very core.
"Christ." Pyro muttered as he witnessed Avalanche tear a crack into the very fabric of the earth. Molten rock began to rise from the hole he tore.
"MOVE YOUR ASS LANCE!!!" Fred shouted as he witnessed to Magma jetting toward Avalanche.
Avalanche ignored the screams of his teammates and focused. "Kitty, give me strength…" He thought as he focused on the fast coming Magma wave in front of him. He stared at the approaching Magma wave and blood began to dribble from his nostrils as he held his hands out and focused.
"AAAHHHHRRRRGGGGHHHH!!!" Lance Alvers screamed as seismic energy erupted from his hands. The air in front of him distorted as the seismic energy tore through it, and slammed into the coming Magma. The force of the impact caused the magma to stop its progress toward him. Blood began to stream from Lance's nose as he poured more seismic energy into the blast, forcing the Lava back into the hole he had created. Then with a final burst of energy he closed the hole, leaving nothing but charred grass and scorched earth as a reminder of what had just happened.
"Well done Avalanche." Magneto said as he lowered himself to the ground. "Your control is growing better and better every day."
"Yea," Lance said tiredly as he took in rasps of air. "If you say so..." he muttered before he promptly collapsed.

"The treatments are working." Magneto said as he sat down.
"If you push him to hard, he may snap." Sabertooth said as he paced back and forth.
"I have to agree with Victor here." Raven Darkholme said. "True the injections have allowed his power's to evolve faster than they should, and he has dealt with them extremely well, if you push him to hard, he will snap and lose control."
"We already prohibited him from seeing that X-Man." Victor Creed continued.
"And since we have, his focus has grown more and more." Magneto answered.
"Look I hate the X-Men with a passion." Sabertooth continued, "But I can smell that the kid is hurting inside."
"And your point?" Mystique asked.
"Take it from a guy who losses control easily, allow the kid his distraction."
"WHAT?!?" Magneto shouted as he knocked his chair over.
"Look, will it slow down his training? Yes. But will it keep him from breaking? Yes. If he has something to worry about, he's less likely to make a stupid decision that will cost us in the future."
"Absolutely not." Magneto said as he walked to where Creed was standing. "The treatments will continue, as will the training, and he will not see young Katherine Pryde, unless she joins the Brotherhood. Is that clear?"
"Yes sir." Mystique said.
"Crystal." Sabertooth said as Magneto turned and left.
"What were you thinking Creed?" Mystique asked after Magneto was gone. "You don't like any of the 'children' so why go to bat for one."
"I didn't go for him. I went for the Brotherhood." Creed said as he turned to leave. "If that kid loses it, we're all screwed."
"I hope your wrong victor." Mystique thought to herself. "God I hope your wrong..."
