Chapter 1: Discovery
If I had to pick one thing to be a mutant I would not have picked. But since we never have a choice anyways I've gotten used to it. My powers scared me when I first discovered them. I was alone in my house waiting for my father to come back when a group of men came and broke in. My mother and I were alone when they tried to attack us and it all happened so fast. When the man went to touch me I killed him. It was like I absorbed his life, his being. But after that I could sense him, what his life was like and who he was. After that the men ran away but they came back with accusations of me being a witch. They almost caught me too but I escaped and have been running ever since until the day when he came, Major William Stryker. He found me in a lock up after a certain fight. He told me I was unique, since then I have been helping him to collect his team.
. . . . . . . . . . . .
We went to the army base where the last two people that the Major wanted were. I had read their files. They were brothers that had lived for a very long time and that had fought in many wars. The major wanted them for two reasons one, they were deadly, and two they could not die. The major opened the cell.
"Hello boys," he said to the two figures slightly concealed by the darkness.
I stared into the darkness I could make out two men one was in the corner and the other was leaning against a wall.
"The warden tells me that your sentence was carried out by a firing squad at 1000 hours. How'd that go?" Stryker says pulling off his sun glasses.
The man by the corner slowly lifted his head, "It tickled."
Stryker smirked, "My name is Major William Stryker. This is my assistant, Aurora. You boys tired of running? Tired of denying your true nature? Tired of wars?"
The man by the wall was petting a rat, "Why do you care?"
Again Stryker smirked, "Oh, I care. I care because I know how valuable you are. I'm putting together a special team, with special privileges. So tell me, after defending this country for 150 years and 4 wars, how would you like to really serve your country?"
The two men slowly looked at each other and nodded a Stryker.
For the first time I spoke, "Well then boys welcome to the war."
When they finally came into the light I got my first glimpse and the two brothers. The first one to come out was Victor Creed. I scrolled through my memory about what I had read about him. A sadistic killer that had animal like reflexes and sharp claws. His brother was Logan also a killer with animal reflexes. He had bone claws that supposedly extended from his hands. Well whatever their powers were I was about to find out in full detail.
Stryker nodded to me I turned to both men, "This isn't going to hurt, much." I stepped up to the closest one, Logan and grabbed his arm. My eyes rolled into the back of my head as I started to absorb all that Logan was his powers, his thoughts. I fell to the ground shaking, the only down point to my power. I was momentarily weakened and out of commission.
"What the hell just happened to her?" said Victor.
"Don't touch her!" called Stryker, "You could permanently damage her."
I slowly opened my eyes and groggily got to my feet. I shook my head, "Major?"
"Yes go ahead Aurora no one significant is watching."
I could feel in my skin his claws I knew how to use them too. Slowly I let them slither from my skin. Logan watched appalled as bone claws protruded from my hands. I stared at them kind of astonished my self. When I pulled them back I noticed my senses had increased too. I sniffed and shook my head this place smelt disgusting.
"Again I ask what the hell just happened!" Victor said from the side lines.
That's when footsteps were heard, "Come we must go we can continue this in the van." Stryker said as he led the way to the van.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
"Aurora is my personal body guard. Her powers are powerful and magnificent. She can absorb people's life in your case you powers. She used to kill by it but she now knows how to control it. After she has absorbed some of that person she can maintain a mental link with them. So to this team she is completely invaluable."
"How does she keep them all straight? The people I mean," said Logan.
"I keep my mind like a filing cabinet," I said looking up, "Each person to me is like a drawer I open it I have that link and their powers."
"Interesting," said Victor his dark eyes trained on me.
"Some say that," I said studying him.
"Aurora," Stryker said nodding at Victor.
"Yes Major," I said as I leaned over to take a hold of Victors hand.
As I grabbed his hand I felt his claws digging into my palm and again my eyes rolled back into my head but this time it was so much worse as his memories came flooding in to my head I wanted to scream. Pain, horror, fear filled every memory. Black was like a constant color in his mind. I shook violently. Slowly he let go.
"Wasn't a pretty sight was it?" he muttered to me as I slide back into my seat breathing heavily. I looked into those eyes and shuddered. Although when I had been in his mind there had been something else. Something I couldn't particularly put my finger to but if I had to call it one word it would have been, hope.
