Chapter 1
It was around nine thirty in the evening in Bayville. A young-looking girl wondered through a park, looking for a place to sleep for the night. She had no home to go to, but roamed the streets in the shadows unknown to all. She didn't complain though. She actually enjoyed the solitude, of course, that may be because she had gotten used to it.
This girl's name was Danielle, but she hated that name. She preferred to be called Danny; a simple, tomboy-ish name. She had long, waist-length silver and black hair that looked natural. That may have been the result of long term stress, or maybe it was the simple fact that this young lady was not a normal teenager.
Danny knew she was odd. She knew she was extremely different, aside from looks. She would have these bizarre premonitions almost constantly, every time she slept. She was starting to get used to them. If Danny came within ten feet of anything dead, she'd go into a mild seizure and flashes of that death would burn across her mind. She was also starting to get used to those, too.
Danny sat with her back against a large tree in the park, closing her eyes for another nightmare-filled sleep. This time, however, she didn't even get to her normal premonition. Someone very strong had grabbed her by her shirt collar. Her eyes snapped open, finding herself face to face with a tall, blue woman with brilliant red hair and yellow glowing eyes. The woman smiled, though definatly not a warm smile as a man stepped behind the woman to get a good look at Danny.
"Good job, Mystique." He said to her. "Well, now, who do we have here?" He turned his attention fully on Danny, who was glaring at them with her bottomless black eyes and barring her sharp, slightly pointed teeth.
"Ikardu!" She screamed in what she thought was English. She heard it as perfect English; as 'Let me go!' "Yama stet to! Bian Nokala!"
The man looked puzzled. He glanced at Mystique, who was equally riddled. "What did she say?"
Danny continued to scream in her language with all her might. Another man joined Mystique and the other man. This one was very tall, with long blonde hair and kind of a cat-like beard. He grabbed her by her collar so Mystique could let go and roared in her face- an actual lion's roar through his sharp cat fangs. Danny quieted, staring deeply into his onyx eyes that matched hers so well. Both their eyes widened at the same time, as if they were reading each other's minds. Time stood still, it was an extremely bizarre moment that no one could seem to explain.
"Ey bian?" Danny asked him in her language. He actually half-understood. The cat man stared into her eyes, as if seeking truth. He suddenly dropped her as a great bolt of lightning hit Mystique directly in her back, sending her flying. Another woman and man had arrived. The woman was surrounded in a great wind, her long white hair billowing gracefully and her eyes glowing a brilliant white. The man had short brown hair and a odd device over his eyes, which he pressed a button and made it shoot a laser beam in their direction.
All Danny remembered was the man and woman running to her as the others left, the cat man giving her one last look. She then promptly fainted.
