Later that night

Johns Pov

"Where you at boy"my father yelled i try to hide even further in my closet

"You know better than to hide from me"he says in a deep menacing voice i hold my breath when he comes closer to me

"So thats how its going to be huh" he begins walking out of sight i slowly poke my head out and look around thinking that the cost is clear and come out of the closet and go for the door

"I knew that would work" I stop dead in my tracks and feel a chill go up my spine he walks over to me and places a hand on my shoulder and i close my eyes knowing what is about to happen

He then hits me across the room making me fall onto my stomach i try to get up and he kicks the wind out of me and starts to stomp on my back i cry out in pain and beg him to stop but he just laughs i try to use my powers but he hits me again and again this time with his belt for trying to use them after another 5 min of torture he stops and starts to walk away

"Wh-why do you do t-this to me im your s-son"i ask weak and about to fall unconcious he turns around and hits me again

"Because your a freak and a abomination" he smiles at me and laughs

He walks away i then think it is over when he comes back with MRD officers with tazzers i try to run but they catch me and shock me i scream and scream begging them to stop but they just laugh and i scream and scream and scream

I then hear a faint voice "John John wake up wake up John"


I suddenly open my eyes shoot up from the bed and look around scared and confused

I fall out of the bed and scramble over to the nearest corner and hug my knees to my chest and start mumbling to myself "no more pain please no more pain" just then the door burst open and magneto and wanda rush in worried

"Lorna what happened we heard screaming" magneto looks over to me still in the corner mumbling something he can't hear he then looks over at lorna for a explanation

"Well we were sleeping and suddenly he started shifting and turning in his sleep waking me up and then he started screaming like he was being hurt by something" she walks over to me i then pull her into a hug and cry begging her

"Please dont let him hurt me anymore please no more pain" I begin to let the tears flow hugging her tightly she then asks me

"Dont let who hurt you john" i cry some more and then collect myself

"My dad"i say and hear magneto wanda and lorna gasp in shock

"Why are you so afraid of him son he cant reach you here" I shake my head

"He can because he is senator Kelly he can get to me if he wants to" lorna and wanda gasp again

"The senators is your father" I nod and hold onto lorna as she ran her hand through my hair it felt soothing and made me sleepy i then open my eyes and begin to stand up she lets go and inside i feel sad that she let go i then look around for my bag when i find it i reach in and take out a bottle of pills

"What are those for" i look into Lorna's eyes that were full of questions and decide to tell them

"They are pills to help you stay awake for long periods of time I take them so I dont sleep and have those nightmares" wanda walks over to me and puts a hand on my shoulder

"How long have you been awake john" I look at them and sigh

"Nearly a year its not safe for me to sleep" magneto and Lorna then come over to me

"Please give me the pills son i know your afraid but you need to sleep its not healthy for you not to" I stare at the bottle in my hand and look at them and i suddenly feel safe and give the pills to magneto who looks surprised i gave them up so easily

"I took them because I was afraid but being with you guys I dont feel scared any more I feel safe for the first time in my life" Lorna then hugs me and i blush a deep red which magneto notices and mouths well talk about this later I just nod and they walk out and me and lorna go back to bed

One month later

I wake up with lorna laying her head on my chest i blush a deep red and look outside it is slightly cloudy and might rain i really hoped it would. I slowly got out of bed and got dressed and head twords magnetos office where i can tell he is waiting for me. I sigh and open the door it has been a month since the incident i still sometimes wake up from them but every time lorna was there to comfort me.

"Good morning magneto" he nods

"Take a seat john" I sit down in-front of him

"I assume you know why i wanted to talk to you"i nod and he smiles

"Good i saw how you reacted to my daughters hug that night "i nod and look at the ground he chuckles slightly

"Dont be discouraged boy i am not here to stop you from loving her"i look up shocked

"Walk with me john" we begin to walk threw the large home and he begins to explain

"You see lorna's mother died when she was very young and ever since she has not been the same so i have tried my hardest to make her happy which she is but she never has had a friend before or in your case a crush" i blush slightly

"You see after her mother died she was always with me like she was afraid i would be gone if she let me out of her sight but eventually she knew i would never leave her but even I cant live forever and she knows that and has accepted that but"he stops and i look at him curiously

"What is it sir"i ask him

"I need you to promise me something john i need you to promise you'll stay with her when im gone she has grown very fond of you after only a few days of you arrival that's rare for my daughter usually it takes her months to begin to talk to people but you did it in a few days so i need you to promise you'll stay with her when i pass please" he looks at me pleading

"I will sir I will stay with her I promise" he nods and begins to walk away when i add

"Plus sir I like her two she is the first person who i have liked in a long time and this time she likes me back i just hope my father doesn't do anything stupid to ruin all this" he nods and says to me

"I will handle your father he will pay for what he has done but i wont do it till you are ready" i nod and he walks away

I walk back inside and look for lorna i look into her room and she isn't there so i start to look for her to tell her i am hear to stay

10 min later

"Man this place is bigger than i thought well guess there's only one thing to do"i say to myself and kneel and close my eyes i then hit the floor with my fist causing a small shockwave to go through the island big enough for me to get a good view of everything on the island but small enough for no one to notice i open my eyes and smile

shes in the garden picking flowers i think to myself and begin to head that way

In the garden

I look around to see lorna picking flowers from some bushes she then goes to pick one but can't reach it and struggles to grab it i smile to myself and walk up silently and pick it for her when i do this she whips around quickly surprised she looks at me and blushes slightly at how close we are

"Hi i believe you wanted this one right" she nods so i carefully place the flower in her hair which causes her to blush again

"How did you find me here i mean it took me three months to know this place inside out" I smile

"Its a little Technic i created i could show you if you want i"i say nervously

"Sure id love to" I nod

"Ok first you get on one knee like so"she does as i do

"Then you place your palm on the ground and clear your mind you have got to feel the earths movements the way it moves"i tell her and she does

"Then you just and i hit the ground sending a shockwave through the ground again like the last one"she gasps and we look at each other

"How did you do that"i smile

"I learned how to do that over a year ago its pretty handy when you want to find someone or if you want to see your enemies in the dark" she smiles and i stand and help her up

"Oh i have some good news" she looks at me curiously and i can see some fear in hope i her eyes

"What is it" I just smile

"Well after some thought ive decided to stay here on Genosha with you and your family" she then squeals and hugs me tightly knocking me off my feet i laugh and hug her back we then start to head back inside when it begins to slowly rain lorna pulls me inside as it begins to come down softly

I look at her and walk out into the rain by myself raise my head and close my eyes

"What are you doing"she asks me

"Im standing in the rain"i say back

"Why dont you hate getting wet and isn't it cold" i shake my head no and say

"Ever since I was little I have always loved the rain its so peaceful and calm its the only thing me and my father had in common. You see during storms me and him would open all the doors and windows and stand in the rain and my father would hold me close and he would say he was sorry about what he did i felt safe then just like i do now"i turn my head her way and hold out my hand towards her my eyes staring into hers begging her to join me she finally took my hand and let me lead her into the rain

She and i closed our eyes and raised our faces to the rain feeling the coolness of the rain on our skin and slowly i reached for her hand which she allowed me to hold and after a couple of minutes i pulled her close to me as i held her she rested her head on my shoulder and I begin to speak

"I feel the coolness on my skin i feel the wetness of the earth i feel my worries drift away as i stand here with you i hear the rythem of the rain i hear the song the rain sings for us i see the earth at its purest form but still no one else sees but me and you others just see rain i see our secret place" As i end so does the rain slowly we look at each other looking into each others eyes and slowly our faces come closer and our eyes start to close she closes her eyes and stops her lips only centimeters from mine and i close the gap we pull each other closer and deepen the kiss putting all our emotions into that one kiss after a minute we pull back from each other and i rest my forehead on hers

"I had a feeling you felt the same way about me john i was just to afraid to show you" We then hear someone clear there throat we whip around to see wanda glaring daggers at me

"Well lorna i guess you know what this means" lorna gasps

"No wanda dont please"lorna begs

"I must he must prove himself to me he has already done that with father but now he faces me" I already know where this is going and nod taking off my jacket

"Are you sure you want to fight me"i say in a monotone she nods

"No powers right"she nods again "ok lets go then your move" she then charges at me
