Voices that Kill
I'm really, really trying to stay dedicated to this ficlet. It's going to give me some sanity since lately I do not seem to have any. A pounding headache, a Biology project, and now more drama…sigh I really hate high school right now.
I have no idea who will be in the lucky pairing…I need more help on that. Reviews help. Message me too. I'm usually on between 7-8 PM on the weeknights eastern time. On the weekends, it's for one hour any time in the afternoon hours.
Chapter 2: Silver and Indigo
He just continued to stand there, his arms arrogantly crossed and expecting Silena to answer. "Yeah…yeah, I guess I am happy," she said, smiling some and standing up. "You're Pietro, right? The "speed demon from hell"." Some pride swelled up in his chest (it practically radiated from every crevice) and replied with a casual, "Yes I am." Silena could only smile. "I'm Silena Evenruu. Kitty filled me in on most of the Brotherhood members."
At this, Pietro winced a bit, "Like what did she say in the whole "filled in" section?" Silena ran a hand through her multicolored hair. "That you're annoying, Freddy is a pig, Todd is ugly, and Lance is a….uhh…" She turned a very nice shade of red and mumbled out the rest of it. To Pietro, it sounded like "ducking glass mole". But he was smart enough to fill in the blanks. Both laughing, Pietro very casually made a comment about what Kitty could do with that, which had Silena in more fits of giggles.
"Dinner is ready by the way," said Pietro, evidently remembering the reason he was sent upstairs in the first place. Silena glanced around a moment, and asked him politely, "Would you mind leaving for a few minutes? I want to get out of this outfit if you don't mind…" Pietro's grin suddenly turned cocky, "Nah, I don't mind."
"Out, Pietro," said the younger mutant with a roll of her eyes, and practically shoved him out the door. "He's a cheeky little monkey," she mumbled, searching through her suitcase for something more comfortable.
T-shirt and jeans? Nah, she was sick of them for the time being.
A dress? Silena imagined sitting at a table of hungry mutants that just got home from school, and decided strongly against it. She would be severely over dressed.
After a few minutes, Silena settled on a nice grey and black stripped top and a black skirt with some black fuzzy slippers that had what looked like green cats all over them. Stepping out, she was modestly surprised to have Pietro suddenly standing in front of her. "You'reslow," he said in quick fashion. Silena stuck out her tongue, which he made a face at and suddenly vanished yet again with the help of his super speed.
At dinner
Pasta, left over salad and steaks, and a generous help of fruit salad was waiting as Silena entered the large dining room. All eyes were on the newest mutant as Professor Xavier introduced her yet again to those who had just came in. With a wild abandon on mosts part, the food quickly disappeared into everyone's belly. Freddy was fascinated by how Silena could down three helpings of pasta, two helpings of salad, seven helpings of fruit salad, and two stakes.
"How did you do that?"
Toad was looking at her in obvious interest now. Most of the X guys were. "I have the stomach of a full grown man," she announced happily, patting her slightly rounded tummy. Freddy looked over at Pietro, "I think I'm in love, man." The silver-blonde speed demon laughed while Silena merely smiled at the dumbfounded look on Freddy's face.
"Desert!" called Storm.
There was no school tomorrow, so the teens all went onto the backyard where there were lawn chairs, the pool, and some hammocks. Silena was presently being hogged by Lance and Kitty (who seemed to have made up before dinner) along with Evan and Jean. Scott, Kurt, along with Jubilee and some others were lounging in the pool.
"So, how do you like it here so far?" asked Evan. "It's been great!" The smile on Silena's face was genuine as the wind gently ruffled her multicolored locks. "Can you do anything more aggressive with your powers?" he asked curiously. Silena looked thoughtful, then looked at Kurt, in all his blue glory, getting out of the pool. Silena let out a small but sharp yelp.
To Kurt, it was like two hands pushing on his shoulders. It made him lose his balance and fall into the pool with a splash. The others laughed as everyone's favorite blue mutant broke the surface of the water, wiping his eyes to get rid of the water. When he glanced up, Kurt came in contact with two beautiful brown eyes.
To explain more detailedly ((my own word)), Kurt hadn't really talked to Silena or really seen her up close, as he arrived to the little party later then planned from a after school activity. Silena was so close to him that the tip of her hair tickled his neck as she was on her knees, with her hand held out. "I'm sorry, Evan told me too," said the singing mutant with a teasing smile. Evan's voice in the background cried out "Hey!".
"It'z all vright," replied Kurt with a friendly grin, taking her hand as she helped him out. Though as she walked away, he couldn't help but get flashbacks about how he first felt about Kitty, and how they were ever so slowly seeming to apply to Silena…
Nearby, Pietro snorted darkly and took a long swig from his water bottle.
It's short, I know, but hey. IF NO REVIEWS, I NO UPDATE. Happy?
