Sorry to all my fans waiting for me to type up more on my other stories. I swear i am work on them but it's going very slowly at this point. So here's something that will hopefully hold you guys over until I am able to punch through the writer's block.

By the way as you read before you selected this story I got the idea while playing X men Destiny. So if it seems like I'm copying the game please forgive me but it's all i can think about right now and I will do my best to steer away from it.

Well I'm almost there. New York City. It's been a year now, a whole year since I started this trip. Sure it's taken me a while to get to the half waypoint but at least I'm almost done. I wonder no hope the cancer holds off long enough for me to finish this trip and make it back home. Cause if I have to die I want to do it in my parents' house so if the dead do hang around afterwards I can be with my family. And if not at least I'll die in the comfort I grew up in. I'll write more later.

Adara shut her notebook after clipping her pen to the page she had just written on and turned her gaze out the tinted bus window. The night sky filled with stars and the half moon hun low in the sky telling her how late it was as well as reminding her that there's still several hours until the bus reaches the city. Turning from the window Adara tried to make herself comfy in her seat. Then she caught site of the guy staring at her from the middle row, left side. He was dressed in a white dress shirt and jeans. His hazel eyes were mostly hidden behind his bangs while the rest of his dirty blonde hair was pulled back into a ponytail. When he realized he'd been spotted he turned back around and acted like he was reading him book. "Great. An admirer." She sighed before closing her eyes.

Kaiden carefully turned his head back around to gaze at the girl in the back row, right side of the bus. He couldn't help but admirer her short choppy hair and pale skin. Her ice blue eyes were closed now so she wasn't about to bust him a second time. She was wearing a black Assassin's Creed shirt with black dress pants. Kaiden couldn't stop the chuckle that left him. He was wearing a dress shirt and she was wearing dress pants. Shaking his head he pulled out a picture from the back of his book. "Adara Kensington. 22 years old with cancer. No known living family. Suspected of working with mutants. Such a shame. She could go at any minute and yet they have me tailing her. I wonder who I pissed off." Sinking down in his seat Kaiden let out a yawn and settled in for what was left of the night.

New York City here I am! It may be noon but who cares? I'm going to find a place that severs a decent breakfast that doesn't involve week old donuts. I want something freshly made! I want eggs! Bacon! Toast! Pancakes! ANYTHING BUT DONUTS! I tell ya five days of donuts and chips is enough to make anyone sick of them. Maybe I'll take in a show while I'm here and do a little shopping. I tell ya nothing could bring me down. Not even that guy that was staring at me on the bus. I'm going to have so much fun while I'm here. But first I think I'll see where those people with signs are going. What do those signs say?

Tossing her book in her bag Adara ran to catch up to what she thought were protesters. In truth they were supporters. Supporters of what? Mutants. Right outside city hall it seemed two groups had gathered. The mutant haters and the mutant supporters. "Whoa. What a nightmare this must be for the mayor." Turning Adara meant to leave when an explosion throw her face first into the ground. "Wha?" Quickly getting to her feet Adara was horrified to see that city hall had been destroyed and the mutant haters were pulling out weapons. "This can't be happening." A loud crunch from above drew her attention. And she wasn't sure if she was glad or not. The front top half of the store she was standing in front of was coming down at her.

Kaiden wasn't sure if Adara being at this supporter/hater thing was a sign his boss was right about her or not. He just stayed back watching her from a distance that he hoped she wouldn't realize he was following her. He lost site of her when he was suddenly thrown to the ground by an explosion. Shaking his head to rid it of the ringing in his ears Kaiden pushed himself up and gasped at the site of city hall in ruins. "Did mutants do that?" A smell hit him and he searched for the source. "Oh no." A couple burning cars were leaking gas and the pool of it was heading his way. Kaiden had barely managed to push himself onto his feet when the gas caught alight and the flames began barreling towards him.

Ok people since I don't know how this will go over as a poll I shall give you your three picks (that's three for each character so a total of six picks really) for the main characters core powers. This will not only effect how they save them selves from near death but will also effect how the world around them reacts. Please pm me with your pick or place it in the reviews.

Oh and for the record I got these from a list of superpowers from wiki so sorry if they don't explain them enough.

Ability to create or manipulate darkness, often by mentally accessing a dimension of dark energy (the Darkforce dimension in Marvel Comics, and the Shadowlands in DC Comics) and manipulating it. Kaiden

2)
