"Did you bring me something?" A little girl asked, while clapping her hands together looking at the person who just walked in with wide eyes. He only smiled at nodded his head. She clapped her hands excitedly.
"Well what are you waiting for hell to freeze over bring it in….now" the lady standing next to the little girl asked. The lady had soft caramel colored skin, with long straight black hair. She had vacant black eyes. She was beautiful; she wore a dark black mini skirt and black bra underneath a black fishnet sleeveless off the shoulder sweater, and on her hands were biker like black gloves with the fingers cut off and holes for the knuckles. She wore black knee high boots that she tapped impatiently at the man.
"Of course Medusa" He bowed, and opens the door motioning outside the door with his hand. Three men came in carry a huge bag, they placed it on the table in front of the little girl and bowed and walked out. The man smiled at the girl as he unzipped the bag. Medusa, the lady standing next to the girl picked the little girl up by her arm and place her on the table gently.
"It's beautiful Sabertooth," the little girl said with a huge smile on her face. "Are you sure this is it"
"I tracked him myself, Mistress Danielle" Medusa said unzipping the bag to show all of the unconscious man. "His name is Malcolm and he met all the requirements Destiny foresaw I made sure of that before I sent Sabertooth." She continued, her sing-songy voice rang like clear bells.
"Well wake him up" she angrily hollered at the two people in front of her. "I want to see if it's true for myself, thank you very much."
Sabertooth looked at her quizzically for a second before poking the body very hard, pushing it a few more inches away him. The body twitched but didn't wake.
"Medusa, wake him now" The girl said clearly displeased with Sabertooths failure of waking him.
"A pleasure" she said smiling at Sabertooth. He growled and glared back at her. Medusa smirked more, she than looked at the man and raised her hands over him which began freezing his body. He yelped and screamed in pain as he was jolted awake. She smiled triumphantly as she removed her hands and his screaming stopped.
"What the hell did you do to me" Malcolm yelled rubbing his legs.
"Medusa, she can…well here's a perfect situation to test your abilities… To tell if your gifts are true, what did Medusa do to you?" Danielle asked looking straight into his eyes.
"She painfully froze my legs, an evil thing indeed, but only to find out if I possessed everything you need," He said as his eyes unfocused and his voice turned even and flat.
"I am very pleased," Danielle, said excitedly she waved her hands over Malcolm's face; suddenly Malcolm was set into a mirror. His waist up could only be seen in the mirror, he was surrounded by a grey mist. "Put him in my room Medusa and be careful don't brake it do you hear me" she said looking pointedly at Medusa.
"Yes of course" Medusa said bowing slightly and taking the mirror out of the room.
"Now Sabertooth I have a few things I want you to get..." She continued turning to Sabertooth smiling.

*At Xavier Mansion*
"Gambit pay attention" Scott bereted as the danger room session was paused.
"Wut can Remy say, with such beautiful femmes around any decent guy would be distracted" Gambit said eyeing all the X-ladies in the session. They all blushed except the one he stared at the most.
"Puh-leeze, its just 'notha excuse ta covah up tha fact that swamp raht ovah there can't cut it, Scott maybah it was a mistake taking him outta o' tha kiddy sessions huh" Rogue said walking up behind Scott, and resting her elbow on his shoulder. She looked pointedly at Remy, clearly unphazed by his shameless flirting.
"Maybe your right Rogue, maybe he can't cut it in the senior team" Scott said simply.
"Don't be to hasty, mon ami, Remy not be distracted anymore." He said frowning slightly at him.
"But swamp raht ya said it ya self with all tha pretty ll' thangs running around how are ya gonna keep ya mind on tha mission? It would be easier on tha kiddy team raht. I mean tha kiddys might be a lil above ya skill level but I think thay ca whip ya inta shape raght" Rogue said walking away smiling.
"….Just run da sim" Remy said slightly perturbed.
"Aww did ah hit a nerve swamp raht" she said innocently
"Enough let's just run the sim again maybe this time we'll get it right" Scott finally butted in. "computer run simulation nine seven dash eight seven six"
The danger room became a jungle with trees, vines, mud everything, the whole nine yards. Scott motioned to his left with two fingers and Rogue and Kurt moved silently down the clearing. Remy moved that way but Scott grabbed his jacket and pulled him back.
"You're with me Lover boy" he said moving towards the right path. He looked at the remaining team member and nodded towards the middle path. Jean and Kitty started towards it.
"So why didn't ya set ya lil ole team with Red ain't dat wat usually happens" Remy said trying to make conversation. Scott looked angery but he took deep silent breaths to control his anger.
"Look over there, there it is" Scott said. In front of him was a clearing with a giant stone pillar in front of him. "Alright the key is up there we just retrieve it and then we wait alright," he continued blowing off Gambit's question.
"Why we gotta wait" Remy asked.
"I knew you weren't listening in the briefing, look the keys are synchronized they must all be used at the same time for the doors to open, this is to test our teamwork once the doors open we all meet in the middle and grab the people who are captured in the middle than the drons will come to keep us from it there are other traps on our way the only way to finish is if we all touch the glass before the clock runs out.
/Scott, Remy we all have reached the pillars Kurt's and Rogue are climbing there's and so are me and Kitty what about you and Remy\ Jean voice ran through their heads.
/Yes Jean we climbing our as well contact us when we you all get the key the synchronize has to be precise\ He called back
"Let's get climbing Remy" Scott said beginning to climb the pillar.
Once on top they grabbed the Key and called for Jean.
/We got it Jean what about the rest of the team.\
/we all got it I projecting to all of us on the count of three we all turn the key counter clock wise. One…two…three\
Scott turned the key. Suddenly the pillar started falling down. Remy and Scott held onto the pillar for dear life. The pillar dropped them into a dark cave. They looked around.
/Jean is everyone okay\ he called in his mind
"Yea we are" Jean said from behind him, turned around fast. Everyone was in the cave, dirty albeit, but there.
"Remy guess this wasn't in da briefin'" He said looking at Scott's surprised face. If Remy could see his eyes he'd imagine Scott had just rolled them since he plainly ignored him and started out. Suddenly, Rogue pushed Scott on the ground as something whizzed past him and caught in her hand inches from her own face.
"Shugah listen why don't ya before ya let ya emotions cloud ya thought huh, swamp raht I hate ta ask but could ya shed some light on or situation mabe" Rogue said throwing the arrow down.
"anyting fer da pretty lil' femme non" he said bowing as he produced a card in his hands. He let it flip through all his fingers before it started to glow a bright red. The room was immediately lit. Rogue looked down at where Scott had stepped it was a red tile. She herself was on a blue one. She looked around.
"no one move" She commanded, Scott knew from experience when to hand the reins over to Rogue She saw everything, being able to think from all the teams perspective that was why she was now 2nd in command. Jean was third, she didn't mind truly she understood Rogue had absorbed practically everyone on the team and gained all there useful knowledge and way of thinking even the professor. Rogue looked at all the tiles people were standing on "Kurt, ah want ya ta teleport to tha blue tile two tiles left of mah" she commanded. He swiftly did that. "Kitty I want you to jump to that blue tile in front of you and be careful don't touch any othah tile ya here" Kitty nodded as she did a small leap forward landing perfectly in the center of the blue tile. "Jean I want you to but a shield around you and Remy ya'll are both on booby trahps and then move tat ha nearest blue tile, Shadowcat I want ya ta bend ovah ta Nightcrawler and night crawler extend ya tail ta Scott sice he's laying on a red tile and make sure Shadowcat's got ya all intangible except fat ha feet cuz I need Scott ta get up and make your way that blue one your hand is on okay. Now go" she said. Jean set her hands up.
"Wait!" Jean yelled "My powers there gone"
Rogue sniffed the air, using Logan's heightened sense of smell. "No we can't use active powers but how was Gambit able ta light his card than" she pondered.
"It won't explode maybe dat's why it only uses the lighting part of my power that was it." Remy said helpfully.
"Okay we do this with all inactive but I think Kurt is still able to teleport, so Kurt port Kitty ta the other side." She said. Kurt did what he was told as he did. "alright we do this the hard way, Scott you first ah want ya ta keep ya foot on tha red tile don't move if ya do pivot it okay get ya whole body on it" Scott placed his hands supportively on the red tile his foot was on he stood up and looked at Rogue. "alright Kurt teleport hi to the other side" Kurt did that as rope cutting sound was heard and Rogue jumped from Her spot to Jean's and pushed her out of the way and a giant swing axe came through where jean once was. Kitty grabbed upon Kurt and Scott and made them intangible before as the axe went right through them. The dirt strip was really small and Kitty had to keep everyone intangible. Rogue and crammed into the wall thankfully both were on a blue tile. Rogue looked down and pulled an arrow out of her side. Jean tore off her sleeve and bandaged it around Rogue's side, to stop the bleeding.
"ya alright chere" Remy asked when he saw the arrow with blood at it's tip.
"ah'm fahne lets concentrate on getting you off ya red tile okay" she said. Kurt teleport Jean back when the blade is just coming outta ya okay" she said, Kurt did as the blade past through there intangible bodies Kitty let go of him and he teleported jean to safety.
"move ovah swamp raht" she said as she leapt onto his red tile.
"why chere if ya wanted ta get a lil closer ta Remy ya coulda just asked" he said smirking at there closeness. Rogue smiled as she slipped her hand around his waist in his coat.
"but than ah would been lahke tha otha bimbos who talk ta ya and I didn't want that" she said sweetly. He stared at her weirdly. "but I wondered if you could help me with something?" she asked running her free hand up his side and circling his chest.
"anyting ma chere" he said mesmerized
"get offah mah tile" she said rudely while pushing him of the tile onto a blue on and before he stumbled more onto another red one Kurt teleported him safely back and made intangible. He stood there totally shell shocked at the turn of events.
Rogue smirked she pulled out his bo-staff and unhinged it and propped it on the wall and the tile keeping it down. She than leap onto the swinging blade and jumped over to safety as the others moved back to give her room. She than ran forward before and leaned against the wall. It started to glow. The others placed there hands on the wall as the entire simulation melted away.
********************************************
Danielle locked her room as she strode proudly up to the mirror hanging in her room. She looked at it admiringly and tapped on the glass.
"Morning Sunshine" she giggled happily. The mirror grew misty as a Malcolm appeared in the mirror. He looked at her angrily.
"Do you know what I'm here for?" she asked expectedly.
"The answer only will I chime, when questioned put thy asked in rhyme" he said.
"Yes, yes, yes I know the deal"
"Mirror, Mirror on the wall, who's the most powerful mutant of them all?" she asked looking into the mirror. Malcolm waited for the answer to come and smiled as he received it.
"Powerful yes, you may be but, in fact there are three, mutants more powerful than thee" he smiled as the pictures showed up. A flash came up as Rogue, Wanda, and Professor Xaiver all pictured below him. He smiled; Danielle smirked and crossed her arms
"Well we're just gonna have to see about that now won't we"
