"Bring in X-25," The commanding voice of Doctor Zander Rice called. I was strapped down to a hospital bed, and I was being taken into another room with florescent lights and white everything. Rice looked as smug as ever, and as always I wanted to wipe that smirk right off his face, but, I couldn't. Donald Pierce walked into the room at that moment, and flashed me a quick grin before heading off to the corner of the room.
"As we talked about yesterday, you were the last pure mutant born. We also discussed why your powers are so strong. I believe that your powers were a last attempt to save mutant kind. See, what you can do is something no other mutant can do to your level. You can absorb energy from mutants and humans alike, but when you absorb energy from mutants, you develop their powers. I have only heard of one other mutant that could do this, although she did not possess the power to keep mutant ability she had taken forever. You, on the other hand can," Rice explained this all matter of factly, as if what he was saying was true. It was to a certain extent, but it was mainly guess work.
"Yes, that's fun and all, but let's go over the part where I die because of how powerful the powers I've absorbed are. They literally make me unstable, it's a pretty big price to pay for being all powerful," I yelled. I was done with this crap. I didn't care what Rice thought, because in my mind, he was what he was, a tiny speck on Earth, small enough to step on. Rice slapped me across the face. I was pissed, so I shouted,
"Didn't your dad ever teach you to not hit a girl?" I then remembered something that would make Doctor Zander Rice very angry, so I continued, "Or, did your dad not live long enough to teach you something like that?"
Rice dropped the smirk for half a second, then plastered it back on. He motioned for some guard to come over, and I developed a sinking feeling in my gut, Not again, I thought. The guard pulled out a metal stick like thing and pressed it to my neck. I felt a jolt of electricity, then nothing…
