"I'm guessing you guys aren't mutants." remarked Pietro in a joking tone, as he tried to take in all of the information. Jupiter shook her, answering for her friends.
Mars sat down on the nearest chair, resting her eyes, she didn't want to relive all of those memories, it was too much. Too much pain, emotion, loss, and death. Why did we have to watch that, it had nothing to do with Apocalypse or Kalskela.
Reading her thoughts Xavier sent her a thought of his own, shocking the young princess. In my opinion, I believe she did that to show our strengths and weaknesses, a way to get to know your allies. Rei looked up at him, shocked he had been able to get pass her mind blocks, but smiled at his gentle voice that reminded her of her grandfather.
"And neither is Apocalypse, not anymore. He has bonded his powers with the Dark Kingdom, making him stronger and more powerful than the last time you went up against him." Said Pluto gravely as she looked at the X-men, eyes saying she knew more than she was letting on. "I must go, I have told you all I am allowed to, the rest is up to you." Staring at Mercury, hinting something she knew shouldn't be hinting. After saying her goodbyes Pluto created another portal and stepped in, walking through the darkness.
"Mercury, find whatever information you can on Apocalypse." Venus commanded, nodding, Mercury pressed her blue earing allowing her visor to appear over her eyes, mini computer in hand typing at lightening speed. Shocking the mutants at how compliant the girl she was without even a small hesitation."I found something..." She said with uncertainty, "During the Silver Millennium, Apocalypse was a story people told kids to make them behave, an equivalent to the Boogy Man. But..." Her face scowling in worry, "It also says that Apocalypse, lived in the Silver Millennium long before our time."
"That can't be true Mercury-sama, from the information we acquired last time we went up against him we found out that he originated from Egypt." Said Magneto raising a silver eyebrow at the newly found information. "Actually he was reincarnated in Egypt, according to this he originated from... Mars?" All eyes laid on the young girl who looked up, shocked at the information. "He's Martian? But.." Pausing not knowing how to approach the situation "...he's mechanical? Shouldn't that be Mercurian?" Sailor Moon finished for her friend. Making Mercury frown at the 'mechanical' comment,
"Uh... not that I'm saying people on Mercury were robots! Just that Mars was not really a technology type of planet, while Mercury was filled with technology!" nodding her head fast trying to make her point. "I know what you mean Usagi, don't worry about it." Mercury smiled to show that there was no harm done.
"I'm pretty certain Apocalypse didn't always look that way." Then scrolling down on the page, Mercury saw something that looked like Martian, What would Martian be doing on my computer? "Mars come here, I hope your Martian's not too rusty." Looking confused, Mars got up from her seat and walked over to where Mercury was sitting with Pietro sitting next to her, not taking his eyes off of her. Unfortunately for him, Mercury didn't seem to notice him. Or she just ignored him, after what he did to her yesterday. "Uh..." Mars' beautiful face contorted into confusion, "I remember some of the symbols, but most of it is gibberish... I'm sorry." Her face fell, she didn't know why she couldn't remember a lot of it.
"Well can you tell us the part that you can read?" Nodding Rei scanned through the text. "Um... right here," Pointing at a line on the screen it says, Apocalypse was banished... or exiled. I'm not to sure, by the Queen of Mars. You guys!" Rei said her face clearly excited. "This says the year of Apocalypse's banishment, it was 100 years before any of us were even born, during the Silver Millennium."
"Wow this guy is old!" Venus commented, trying to break the tension. Rei rolled her eyes, and continued reading "He was uh... soldier! A foot soldier for the Army, and love?" Pausing not sure how to translate the sentence. "It says, something about love... I'm not too sure." When she looked up, she saw Sailor Moon and Venus advancing towards her, making her jump and landing on Mercury.
"Don't you get it Mars?!" Shaking her head confused and a little scared at the look going on between the two blondes. "He fell in love with your ancestor!" Both yelled as if it were the simplest thing in the world. "You guys!" Sweat dropping.
Ignoring their hot headed friend, Sailor Moon and Venus started blabbering about how Beryl fell in love with Prince Endymon, then became evil because he wouldn't return her love.
"I can't believe I'm saying this, but they do have a point. But try to translate the rest before we jump to conclusions." Trying to slow the thoughts that Jupiter knew were entering her friend's head.
"Let's see... Oh my god. He was obsessed with her from the first time he saw her. And then when she married uh... I think it means Lord or Noble... He got jealous and raised an army of his own nature, to over take the Planet of Mars. It also says that the Queen of Mars was angered at the destruction he had brought to the planet, murdering her soldiers like they were insects." Her frown deepened, skipping a couple sentences not able to make any sense out of them, she translated the last couple of sentences.
"She died, using all of her energy to banish him after he had killed her husband. Her daughter ascended to the throne the year later." Rei blinked back the tears, "That's all I can translate, the rest is too hard."
"It's like her husband dying was the last straw for her, after that she like went all out an Apocalypse!" Exclaimed Kitty
"I don't doubt that was the reason why she finally banished him, most marriages during the Silver Millennium were for love, not for any political reason. There, of course, were exceptions but never for royalty, royalty always married for love. Nothing less was excepted." Explained Luna, backing Kitty's outburst.
Looking at the clock Usagi jumped up exclaiming her dad was going to kill her, giving Mamoru a quick kiss and telling everyone she'd be back tomorrow, before running out the door in a frenzy. "It's is getting pretty late, Rei you think I can stay the night?" Asked Mina hopefully as she begged Rei with her bright blue eyes. Rolling her eyes, she nodded knowing that Mina would not give up. Then looking at the large group of mutants, Rei turned to Magneto asking him if he needed a place to stay, stating "There's more than enough room."
He instantly told his group who they would be staying with, Makoto stood up and showed them to their room. While Rei stayed behind with the X-men and the rest of her friends. "I should go home, I want to be there before Mama leaves for her shift, tell Mako I said bye." Bowing respectfully to X-men she walked out the door, only stopping after she her name being called.
"Ami? Do you want me to drive you home? It'll be faster." Nodding, Mamoru followed the girl out the door waving before he left.
"I think we should all go to bed, it is getting late." Scott said yawning, helping the Professor towards their room. Then one by one the mutants left towards their room, with Logan giving Rei a 'you and I are going to have talk soon' look. The room emptied leaving only Rei, Remy, Mina and Kurt. "Uh... Kurt come on, I'll walk you to your room." Pulling Kurt away from the silent couple, Mina grabbed his hand asking him about his appearance earlier.
"Feu, let's go for a walk. Remy need to tell ya' somet'ing." Not waiting for an answer, Remy stood up and walked across the room, taking her hand into his and dragged her towards the exit. The two walked in silence for a while till they reached the temple, leaning against a wall, she looked up at him with uncertainty in her eyes. "Yes?" she asked simply, not sure what else to say.
Sighing Remy closed the distance between them, pulling her tightly towards him, snuggling her neck with his nose. Surprised at the action, all Rei could do was hold him back. Then pulling back Remy place a chaste kiss on her forehead, murmuring soft, gentle words to her in french.
Then he kissed her softly on her lips, causing Rei to push her body towards him. He didn't understand how one girl could make him feel so helpless yet strong. Pulling away, he held her face looking at her gorgeous eyes.
"Chere, dat battle today, scared Remy, he almost lost ya' an' Remy knows he can't stop ya' from fightin' but chere, si vous plait be careful. Remy don't wanta lose ya', he just found ya." His demonic red eyes stared at her dark angelic purple eyes, softly begging her to stay with him, and not leave him. The fight today was too close for comfort, just watching her lying on the street, immobile, stopped his heart.
She looked back at him with equal adoration, still not believing he was actually saying what he was saying. Sure he would flirt with her relentlessly, but according to Kitty and Jean, he flirted with every female he could set his eyes on. A small part of her wanted to run away and protect her already fragile heart, but a larger part of her wanted to reach out to him and just belong to him, and him alone.
"Remy..." I came out in a small whisper trying to say something, but she just ended up staring at his lips, just hoping he would kiss her. Rei leaned against the wall for support, he was making her weak in the knees. She parted her lips slightly and ran her tongue over her top lip, she wanted him.
"Remy" She tried again but before she could continue, Remy had his lips on hers, watching her lips say his name and the way they moved, made him lose every ounce of self control. His body pushed against hers, aligning their body intimately, while her slender arms snaked around his neck pulling him closer. He eagerly nibbled at her lips begging for entrance, which she eagerly gave. His tongue entered her mouth softly and gently, quietly asking her's to play along with his. He could tell from the way she responded that this experience was relatively new to her, and he found it exciting to know that she had little to no experience.
Reluctantly Remy pulled away, allowing her to catch her breath, resting his forehead on hers. Both breathing heavily, "Remy... oh my gosh UNCLE LOGAN!" Remy immediately backed away knowing how much this beautiful women in front of him means to the feral mutant in behind him. Remy sent a nervous smile towards the man, who's claws were currently shining in the moonlight.
"I-I can explain!" Trying to calm the man down before he did something to Remy. "Rei go to your room!" His voice booming, but Rei didn't back down facing him eye to eye standing between Remy and Logan. "Logan no! I'm 18 years old, and I..." Remy stepped in front of her, helping her out. "Chere, let Remy and Wolverine talk, d'accord?" Giving him a worried look, then went up to Logan and kissed him the cheek and whispered a small goodnight, hoping he wouldn't kill the young man and walked away towards her room.
"So mon ami, what is it ya' want to talk about?" Gambit asked deciding that acting stupid was the best way to stay alive. "I could smell your hormones from all the way in my room! Cajun she is to young to be doing anything with you or anybody for that matter!" His voice raising with every word.
"Wolverine, Petite isn't as young as ya' believe her to be. She is 18, an adult, old enough to make her own decisions. Plus, like Remy told ya' earlier, Remy ain't gonna hurt the Petite Feu. And we not gonna do anyt'ing she don't want to do." Growling softly Logan pressed a metal claw against Gambit's neck.
"I know I can't stop ya'll from doing anything IF Rei wants to do anything with you, but..." Pausing getting uncomfortable with the conversation. "...force her in any way, I'll kill you." He stated simply, even though he knew that Remy would never do anything like that, but this was dealing with Rei and whenever he was around her he always acted more like a father than anything else.
Sighing, "Cajun, Rei has had her heart broken by men, one to many times. Trust me, she doesn't need it broken again." Sighing not sure whether to continue, "It takes a while for Rei to get close to anyone, especially men but with you, she seems to feel some connection with you that she couldn't ignore." Looking down, "Just don't hurt her, cause trust me I won't be the only one after you. Her friends are just as protective as me, but I don't think they'll be as nice as me." Smirking he walked off, pushing his hands into his pockets.
As Rei slept in her room, she tossed and turned, tears leaving her closed eyes.
"Why?" Mumbling quietly she turning on her side, moaning in pain.
"I love you.."
"Don't leave me..." Her voice small and begging, tossing the blankets to the floor, she cried silently
"Etienne! I love you! Don't die, I need you! Please... don't leave me... Etienne..." Holding her love's head on her lap, crying not caring that Apocalypse was about to kill her. "Reiyna, fight him. Don't give up love, fight for our daughter, for her future..."
"Etienne, don't go... please."Kissing him, she gently placed his head on the ground, standing upshe called forth the powers of her planet. Chanting to herself, she produced ofudas out of thin air and threw them around the demon, encasing him in a red and glowing dome.
Rei's moans and cries grew loader at the commotion going on in her mind.
"You demon!"
"I will return and your line will pay!"
"Etienne... I love-you.."
"My daughter... forgive me"
"Majestic Flame of Mars..."
"Rei! Wake up!" Opening her eyes, she was met with a room full people, all carrying looks of worry. "Are you ok?" Not sure who asked the question, she nodded her head, her throat to tired to make any sounds. Her face in her hands trying to cover her tears. She felt her bed shift from someone sitting next to her putting an arm around her, Uncle Logan, she thought as she placed her head on his shoulder
"Rei-chan what happened? We heard you moaning, it scared Mina out of her bed and kicked me out of my own." Makoto said trying to lighten the mood for Rei.
"I don't know, I saw-the past... I think. I'm not sure most of it was blurry." Her eyes welled up, "I saw them die Mako-chan, she was so sad when he died."
Looking at each other, the group didn't know who she was talking about. "Then-Reiyna... I saw her die. She-she looked like me, but older." She started muttering, "He died for her... it was so sad... I felt their pain."
"Rei-chan your not making sense." Mina said as she kneeled in front of her distressed friend, "Rei, what happened? Who's Reiyna?" She asked slowly
"She was the Queen... Apocalypse! He killed him!" Rei shouted making everyone jump. "He destroyed everything, they were so happy and he destroyed it!" Steeping in Xavier placed his hands over her temples trying to calm the jumpy girl, her mind block had weakened incredibly due to the vision.
Letting out a small breath, Rei opened her eyes looking at Xavier saying a small thanks. "I'm sorry for waking all of you up." She said as she stood bowing towards the group that had congregated in her room. "It's ok Rei, I hope you feel better." Kitty said with a yawn as she walked over to Rei and gave her a small hug before leaving with Jean towards their room. The rest followed the example by telling her to feel better, leaving only Mina, Mako, Remy, and Logan.
"Petite?" Rei looked at him, her eyes boring into his.
"Come on Logan, you should get to bed." Mina whispered, deciding that Remy would be the only one to cheer Rei up. And with help from Mako the two dragged the man out of the room.
"Remy" Her voice small, begging the comfort he could only provide. At the sound of her voice he sat down next to her, wrapping his arms around her waist, pulling her towards him sitting her on his lap.
"Chere, it'll be ok." He rocked her small body till she fell asleep. Placing her on the bed he bent down to kiss her on the lips, barely touching. As he pulled away he felt a hand on his wrist. She was awake, her eyes bright. "Stay with me tonight."
Remy's eyes widened at the offer, causing Rei to blush. "Not like that! But just sleep..." Her blush deepened as he smirked at her. Muttering a small yes, Rei moved over to make room for the man is easily over 6 feet. She laid her head on his chest, noticing he wasn't wearing a shirt but just boxers, causing her blush to return. Kissing the top of her head he wrapped his arms around her torso, settling in for the night.
"Bon nuit, Feu." (Goodnight, Fire)
In return she mumbled something back, which he believed to be a goodnight. The two slept not caring what was to come the next day, forgetting about Apocalypse, forgetting about everything just for tonight.
A/N: SORRY for the wait!!! Really I am! I stayed up all night working on it so I could have it up!
