Disclaimer: I do not own X-Men Evolution.
A/N: Okay, I know that I should be working on my Harry Potter/Originals crossover, but this would not leave me alone. I always loved the character Torrent aka Kendall. So, this is my take on what would have happened if she were a part of the Evo universe. And yes, she is an actual comic character. Please, people, google Kendall Logan with X-Men and see what pops up. She does exist. I'm just tossing her in the Evo universe.
Well... this was certainly a surprise...
Well, no... Surprise probably wasn't the best word. Shock? Shock was a better word.
A heavy, boulder-like feeling settled in her. A cold that had nothing to do with her affect on the wind chill washed over her. Speaking of the air, that left her lungs all together and her hands flew to her mouth. The motion caused her to drop the object that was the source of the shock.
Blue eyes shifted downward, fixing on the two lines that were far more life altering than any lightning bolt she could produce.
Ororo Munroe was pregnant.
A tell-tale thundercrack told her she had better calm down.
Bones turned to jelly, she sank onto the toilet to stare blankly at the positive pregnancy test. She knew exactly how that had happened. And she knew exactly who...
Goddess! Should she call him?
How would she even begin that conversation?
Ugh, she could just hear her sister's voice in her head. "Good grief, O! You're a powerful weather goddess and you can't handle this!? Puh-leeze!"
Or worse, the Professor's...
No, wait... She couldn't hear his voice. That was probably a good thing. What would, or could, he even say as far as this?
Or, she could call... and it caused a weird feeling when she thought of him like this- the father.
But, she had no clue where he was. Yes, she had recruited him to Xavier's cause, yanking him away from the machinations of that tyrant, Magneto, to join Xavier's cause. But, that didn't mean she kept tabs on him. While she may have been, at one point, a powerful weather goddess, she had also been a silly college student, prone to the same mistakes. And said mistakes included sleeping with the proverbial bad boy. And if the mysterious Logan, wild man of Canada (whose age was still a question mark) wasn't the proverbial bad boy, she didn't know what was.
A knock on the door snapped her from her musings.
"O!" her sister's voice called. "Did you fall in?"
"No, Vi!" Ororo stood back up and picked up the instrument of her mental stress. "I'll be out in a minute... And... can I talk to you for a bit...?"
An hour later, Ororo and Vivian sat in front of the fire. A cup of hot chocolate in the mutant's hands while the human downed a shot vodka. Ororo envied her little sister for that.
"So... what do you think I should do?"
Vivian refilled her glass. "Last I checked, O, you were the older one. Just because I'm engaged doesn't make me the wise one..."
Blue eyes narrowed at the younger woman "Humor me."
Vivian sighed and went to toss back her second shot but Ororo had swiped it from her hand. With an annoyed sigh, the younger woman then paused to consider her answer.
"Well... does that Professor you told me about know?"
"No... well... I don't think he does..."
"And what about the father?"
"Also, no... You're the only one who knows..."
Vivian signed and paused to think. "All right... Well, whoever the father is... you should tell him. Imagine how pissed you would be if men could get pregnant and he kept it from you..."
Ororo was torn between her fear and amused exasperation at her sister. "Fine... Vi, have I ever told you how irritating you are?"
"Only because I'm right all the time."
Scoffing, Ororo reached for the phone. And after giving her sister a scathing look to scare her off, she dialed a certain number.
Now, whether she hoped or feared Logan picking up, remained to be seen.
T.T.T.T.
Okay, I'm sure people are wondering why she reacted in such a way. I like to keep realism. And while Evo Storm is a serene force of nature (until she gets pissed or has to fight a battle) she's still a young woman, who would freak once discovering she's got a bun in the oven. I should have the next chapter up soon.
