Prologue
10 years ago…
"Not you too.."
"Dad,I'm sorry,I'm so sorry!"
Warren was standing in front of his father. Crying. Feathers and tissues with blood lay scattered all over the floor. His father was shocked. His son,Warren Worthington,a mutant?
"Clean this mess up at once,Warren,I do not want to see anymore of this!" Warren's father said,sternly.
And Warren obliged. He felt like he had just disgraced his family. Meghan stood standing at the door watching him.
"Meghan! Please,leave! I cannot bear letting you see me like this!" Warren said.
"But Warren…what is there to be ashamed of? Your perfect just the way you are!" Meghan said. Meghan was Warren's childhood friend, and they knew each other since their parents work at the same company, Worthington Labs. Meghan too,was a mutant,with telekinetic power. Though, her parents and her friends never knew,she decided to keep it a secret, until today.
"You wouldn't know what it's like to be like this!" Warren said,looking at himself in the mirror.
"Yes,Yes,I would Warren,because… I'm just like you!" Meghan said, looking at the stumps of his wings.
"What do you mean?"
"I haven't told anyone this yet, but I'm a mutant as well…"
"Well, then,prove it." Warren said. He wanted to know what Meghan could do with her powers. Meghan concentrated on the tool box that Warren had used to remove his wings. Concentrating, the box levitated in the air. And then,she placed it back in it's place.
"How… ?" Warren asked,amazed.
"I don't know.. it just happens. You won't tell anyone about this,right?" She said.
"Don't worry,I wont."Warren said, solemly.
"Promise?"
"Promise!"
Not too distant future…
"I can't believe you!" Meghan said,pacing around the room.
"Can't believe what?"Warren asked. Warren's father had recently developed a cure, to suppress the Mutant X-Gene,permenantly. And what were they using? A poor little boy the called Leech. Meghan felt sorry for that kid, being used just to cure Mutantcy. Warren was going to be the first to get cured.
"I can't believe you actually agreed with your father to get cured! Aren't you happy with your gift!"
"I just want to fit in!How would you feel if you had wings like me?" Warren said.
"You doing it so you can impress the girl whom your in love with! A girl who's a HUMAN!"She said,standing up.
"So what!Your not the one who's deciding my future! I am!" Warren said,shouting at her.
"Fine! Be cured! I don't care! All this for a single person? Think about it Warren, I'm just helping you choose the lesser of two evils.." Meghan said,shutting the door behind her,leaving Warren alone.
Warren had entered the medical room. Meghan's last words echoed through his mind. All this for a single person? Think about it Warren…
"Sleep well?" Warren's father asked him as he patted Warren on the shoulder.
"Yeah." Warren said, nervous.
Dr. Kavita Rao led him to a medical bed where they asked him to lay down as the doctor put in the vaccination. Warren watched as she put the vaccine into the needle.
"The transformation might be a little jarring…" The doctor said as she was going to inject him. Was he going to let his father control and let the doctor cure him? Or would he follow Meghan's words, and still be what he is today?
"Dad, can we talk about this?"
"We've already talked about this,son"
"Wait! I can't do this!"
"Yes you can.. just calm down.."
"I can't!"
"Yes you can!"
"No,I CAN'T!" Angel shouted,breaking free from the straps that help him to the bed, letting his wings break free from the leather starps that held him as well.
"Warren, what are you doing? I'm doing this for you! It's what everyone wants! To be normal!" Warren's father said.
"No,dad,it's what YOU want."Warren said,looking at the window. He made a run for it,and broke through the glass window, flying away. People were amazed by the mutant who turned away from the cure at the last minute.
Meghan was walking down the streets when she heard almost everyone gasp,and pointing at the sky. She looked up,and saw Angel flying above them. She smiled. He decided to keep his gift afterall…
