Belle Fleur
Chapter one- Hawaiian Dreams
"Even in the darkness, every color can be found." -Penny (Dr. Horrible's Sing along Blog)
Bayville. Why the hell not?
Walking at a enjoyable pace into the town I looked around. So far it seemed pretty peaceful. Damn. I need some excitement, why is every town in the tri-state area so incredibly boring? I guess you could say that it was my fault. I mean, I could have gone some where exciting like..... Hawaii or some shit. But quite frankly, I don't have enough money for the plane ticket and there is no way in hell I was actually getting a job to pay for said ticket. So now, here I am, stuck in some boring ass small town in the middle of New York.
"Quicksilver, get your ass out here! We need your help!" A large voice yelled before the ground shook, causing me to stumble a bit. Only to fall flat on my ass when a hunched over figure flew at me.
"Ow, what the fuck? Fells like I hit a person, yo." The figure said as he stood up. Of course he didn't see me, I was still using the shadows to hide myself. Lowering my shadowy shield the pasty looking male stared at me with large eyes.
"Maybe that's because you did hit someone you dip shit." I growled out angrily as I glared at the quivering figure in front of me.
"Sorry lady, but one of the X-nerds chucked me at you." He chuckled before he ran back to fight with a fore mentioned 'X-nerds'. Standing up slowly I made my way over to the make shift battle grounds to watch the sad excuse for a fight. Six teenagers in fancy spandex suits were kicking the shit out of four males in makeshift battle outfits. The man who ran into me in the latter group.
Immediately blaming the former group for my fall I walked closer and decided to end the fight. My long black hair blew in the wind as I swiped my arm through the air, throwing the two closest X-nerds flying. The other four looked confused and decided to try and defeat me instead of the four loser behind me. Getting bored at the four X-nerds trying and failing to hit me with whatever powers they had I made a dark circle appear above my head before sending it at them and having it shatter into hundreds of dark spikes.
They were all pinned to the ground before one of the girls phased through my spikes. Becoming rather annoyed with her I created another ball of darkness at her, this one making a bright explosion in front of her face, knocking her out quickly.
Looking around I noticed that the six X-nerds consisted of three girls and three boys, all passed out. The other team behind me stared at me in wonder as the man who fell on me's tongue hung out of his mouth and hit the ground. Shrugging my shoulders in a bored fashion I picked up my small back pack and began to walk down the street in my previous direction.
"Hey sweets, where do you think you're going?" A tall lanky man with silver hair that was slicked back asked as he was suddenly at my side. Looking him over I decided he was part of the four man group in his silver and green outfit.
"Not sure. Possibly Hawaii." I shrugged lazily as I continued walking, only to have the silver haired man appear in front of me.
"That's a long ways away. Why don't you stay here with me and my.... friends? I'm sure we could make it worth your stay." He smirked in such a way that screamed 'Please, feel free to kick my sissy ass'.
"Where do you live?" I asked in hoped of a free bed and a shower.
"Right over there." The tall man said as he pointed to the house where the battle had just taken place at.
"It looks like a piece of shit."
"Well it pretty much is." He shrugged lazily. "So are you coming or not?"
"What exactly do I have to do to stay with you guys?" I asked apprehensively. No way in hell was I do anything kinky with any of these bitches. If worse came to worse I could probably just kill them and take their bloody house for myself.
"Nothing much, just join the Brotherhood and help us beat the crap out of the X men." The silver haired man shrugged lazily.
"That's it?" Receiving a small nod I shrugged my shoulders and headed back towards the piece of crap house.
"Oh and by the way," The man said as he appeared beside me again. "People call me Quicksilver, but you can call me Pietro."
"My name is Roxy, but people tend to call me Fleur."
"Well, welcome to the Brotherhood, Roxy." Pietro said as he led me into the filthy house.
"You actually got her to stay?" Another boy about the same age as Pietro ans myself asked as we entered the house.
"That's why she's here, jackass." Pietro mumbled boredly before cheering up as he turned towards me, "Now this loser, is Lance or Avalanche. He makes things shake and shit."
"Hey" Lance nodded towards me before he turned the television on and began flipping channels.
"Ok, now the loser who rammed into you earlier is Todd or as we like to call him, Toad. He's kinda self explanatory." Said boy hopped into the room and perched himself on the edge of the couch before noticing my presence.
"Sorry about before, yo." He said before his tongue shot out of his mouth and captured a fly.
"Whatever." I mumbled already getting bored with this conversation.
"And the wide load, most likely in the kitchen, is Fred or Blob. He's strong and fat." Pietro finished as he guided me towards a chair that was falling apart before he sat himself on the arm of the chair.
"So what exactly is your power?" Lance asked as he finally peeled his eyes away from the television.
"Besides being hot." Toad piped up causing me to send a small ball of darkness over to explode in his face.
"I can control the darkness and shadows. Can make small explosions out of them, make them into shields or weapons, and use them to travel." I stated boredly as I stared at the Tv.
"That's fucking sweet." Toad said excitedly as he hopped over to sit on top of my chair. "But what do you mean by travel?" Concentrating mildly on my powers I thought of the place on the couch next to Lance. The shadows around the room came towards me and I disappeared. Not even a minute later the blob of shadows reappeared next to Lance before they went back to their normal positions and I was left there.
"Now, if you bastards don't mind, I would like to go to sleep." I said lazily as I stood up and headed towards the staircase, Pietro quickly at my heels.
"Now, your room is the second on the left. Right across the hall from mine." He said as I opened the door to the room. Looked just as shitty as the rest of the house. Great.
"Thanks." I said sarcastically as I began to enter my room.
"Anything for you sweets. Oh and if you need anything, and I mean anything, just come and get me." He said with a wink before he sped off downstairs. Rolling my eyes, I turned the light on and headed over to the mirror. My black hair landed just below my shoulders in light waves. My sharp green eyes stared back at me with disgust.
I hate this.
Looking around the room I quickly became bored and walked back over to the light switch to turn it off before heading to bed.

"Sweets, wake up!" A loud voice yelled from outside my door before he zoomed off.
"Fuck life." was my only response before I rolled out of bed. I found my medium sized book bag that was discarded on the ground next to my bed. Quickly I pulled out a pair of clothes and my hairbrush. Standing back up, I looked down to see what I grabbed. A red plaid skirt and a black tank top After putting those on along with my normal knee high boots, I ran the brush through my hair before going down to the kitchen.
"What do you douches have to eat anyway?" I shouted out as I looked through the half full fridge.
"Whatever you ca- who the hell are you?" Lance asked as he entered the kitchen.
"Roxy, dumb ass." I said lazily with an eyebrow raised as I leaned over the door of the refrigerator.
"Yeah, see here's the thing," Lance said as he walked towards me, "You sound like Roxy, but you sure as hell don't look like her." It was at this point that he held up a strand of my short white hair.
"Forgot about that.." I mumbled under my breathe before grabbing an apple and walking into the living room where the other three mutants were sitting.
"Hey sweets, you get a hair cut or something?" Pietro asked as I sat on the arm rest next to him.
"No, this is what I usually look like." I shrugged as I continued to devour the fruit in front of me.
"What do you mean?" Freddie asked as he practically shoved a sandwich down his throat.
"See, naturally, I am albino." I pointed to my choppy cut white hair that fell just below my ears with bangs that covered my blood red eyes. "And I look like this. But when I use my powers for anything bigger than, say, getting another apple." and the apple that Toad was about to eat floated across the room to me on a small black disc, "Than my hair turns Black and gets longer, and my eyes turn green."
"That's hot." was all Pietro said before he pulled me onto his lap."But what"s up with the color?" he asked as he pointed to my hair. See, the tips of all of the layers of my hair were dyed to be neon colors that ranged from red, blue, green, orange, and pink.
"I like color." I shrugged boredly as I finished my first apple and began to devour the second one.
"Hey, that gives me an idea!" Lance said as he hopped onto the recliner chair.
"That's a first." Pietro mumbled as I wrapped my arms lightly around his neck.
"Anyway, listen to my plan." Lance said, trying to gain our attention again.
"Should I care?" I asked boredly before I felt Pietro wrap his arms around my waist.
"Probably not." In the background I could distinctly hear Lance rambling about something, but the words were lost to me. Thank god for selective hearing!
"Wanna make out?" I asked with a wicked smirk on my face that caused the boy below me to stare back at me with wide eyes.
"Are you two even listening to me?!" Lance growled angrily as the ground began to shake.
"No, not really."
"Ok, seriously. Listen." Getting bored and annoyed by the sound of his voice I figured that if I actually listened, he would eventually shut up. "Well the X-men only know you with dark hair, so if they see albino you, then they won't know that you're the girl who kicked their asses last night. So if you can get close to some of them then we can get some information on how to kick their asses!"
"So just make sure they don't figure out that Fleur is Roxy?" After seeing Lance nod I continued, "Sounds easy enough."

"So remember guys, the Brotherhood probably has a new recruit, so watch out for her." Scott warned as people began piling into his small red convertible.
"Vhat does she look like? She knocked me out bevore I could get a good look at her." Kurt said as 'bamfed' into the car.
"She, like, had black hair that went past her shoulders and bright green eyes." Kitty described the girl as she had gotten the closest to her.
-
-
"So this is your school?" I asked as the Jeep pulled to a stop next to the side walk.
"Unfortunately, yo." Toad said before he hopped out of the car.
"Looks shittier than the house." I mumbled boredly.
"Come on sweets." Pietro said as he raced out of the car and opened the door for me, "I'll show you around."
-
-
"Well there's the Jeep." Evan pointed to the a fore mentioned car.
"But nobody vith black hair. Just her." Kurt said as he pointed a girl that Pietro was helping out of the car.
"Think it's jus' a disguise?" Rouge asked as she watched the albino looking girl flip Pietro off while laughing.
"I'll check." Jean said as she began to concentrate on the girl's mind. Flipping through memories and thoughts, "Nope, not the girls from last night. She just had the misfortune of meeting the Brotherhood."

"Hey, can any of them read minds?" I asked a a familiar feeling passed through my mind.
"Um, yeah. The red head, Jean, can." Pietro said as he looked curiously at me, "Why?"
"Cos somebody is trying to read my mind." I stated before noticing the look of confusion and worry on Pietro's face, "Oh, my dad could read minds too. So he would always read my mind when I was younger to see if I was lying or not. So I know when somebody is probing my mind. But I also learned a way to make them not read your thoughts."
"So you're a second generation?" He asked as we finally began to head into the school building.
"Yeah, I guess so. You?"
"That I am. My sister is too, but we tend to not talk about her." He said a a visible shiver ran down his spine. "Anyway, wait here, I'll go get your schedule and shit." And with that, I was alone again.
Looking around the hallway that I was currently standing in I noticed a few things. The X-men kids were at the other end of the hallway. The boy with red sun glasses watched with disgust as the girl with long red hair was dragged away by a large foot ball player, only to be dragged away a minute later by a small bubbly girl with long dark brown hair. A boy with dark blue/ black hair sighed as a small girl with brown hair and light brown skin walked by. And that a small looking girl with her brown hair up in a pony tail was watching with far too much excitement as Lance walked towards me.
Why was Lance walking towards me?
"Hey Roxy, I thought Pietro was showing you around." Lance said before he quickly glanced back at the girl with the pony tail who promptly stopped staring at him with a light blush dusting her cheeks.
"He's getting my schedule or some shit." I shrugged. Without another moment passing, Pietro turned around the corner and headed towards Lance and I, provoking glares from the remaining X-men.
"Ok, so apparently that chick in the office who was in love with me got fired for sexual harassment or something and was replaced by some guy. But lucky for me, he was bi, so I got you a good schedule." Pietro finished his story which only provoked Lance and I to raise our eye brows. "Yeah, don't ask."
"Anyway, will one of you douches show me where the hell my class is?" I asked as I began to become irritable.
"Calm down sweets, I'll take you there. My class is right next door." Pietro smiles sweetly as he slowly, for him at least, guided me down the hall way.
"You got that done on purpose, didn't you?"
"Yup."

Sitting down in the back corner of my English class I concentrated lightly on all of the shadows in the room and focused to bring them closer to me. Making sure that my hair remained blond. Slowly but surely my small corner progressively became darker. I hate lights.
"Hey, you're in my seat." An angry voice called from in front of me, breaking my concentration for only a second.
"That's nice." Was my simple answer before I slowly opened my eyes to see the large foot ball player who dragged Jean away earlier.
"Get up, or I'll make you get up." he said an a 'I am a macho guy, fear me' voice. Which, honestly, after living on the streets for the last year, did little more than make me laugh.
"I'd like to see you try." I said in between my fit of giggles.
"What? You think that just because you're a girl, I won't beat you up?" He asked as he leaned down closer to my desk, showing off his varsity jacket.
"No, I think that you won't beat me up because you're weaker than I am." I shrugged lazily, not really paying attention any more.
"Why you-"
"Duncan, juzt calm down. She's new avter all." A nervous voice called from behind Duncan, his German accent showing through nicely. Turning around, Duncan eyed the boy with blue/ black hair from before.
"Listen nerd boy, just because you and Jean live at the same place does not mean I have to listen to you." Duncan retaliated as he picked said nerd boy up by the collar of his shirt.
"Duncan, put Kurt down and sit down." A grouchy looking woman said as she entered the class room and began writing on the chalk board
"Yeah, whatever." Duncan said before he took a seat as far away from me, where as Kurt sat in the seat right in front of me. Is he one of the X-men? He looks familiar, but I don't remember actually seeing him at the fight the night before. I should probably ask Pietro about this. Maybe later. Right now I needed to figure out how to go an entire day without using my powers.
High school is just like hell. I swear.
So I wrote the first part of this story at like four in the morning, after finding no good nightcrawler fics (no offense), the second half on the way to the airport with my mom after failing at kingdom heart chain of memories, then the rest at random intervals of the last few days.
Doesn't that sound like fun?!
I didn't think so either. But I actually like this story, so if you think it sucks, please tell me so, and try to tell me how to make it better. Other wise I'll keep writing crap and it will be all your fault. And partially mine, but nobody has to know that....
