Finding the Power Within
Disclaimers: I do not own X-men: Evolution what so ever. I do own Erica Stiles and Alison. This story takes place some time during season three.but after 'under lock and key' I think was the ep title.
Part Six
Scott and Alison spent some time at the mall searching for a new outfit for Alison and dress for the school dance coming up in the next month. He laughed at the fact she was trying to find a dress for dance this early but maybe it was a girl thing. Scott just followed wherever she would lead him. Then they ended up in the girl's swimsuit store and Scott gulped.
"Alison, do you really need a new swim suit?" Scott asked as he followed her in.
"Actually, I do. I didn't bring one with me when I came, besides you can tell me which one looks better." Alison told him innocently.
"Uh.sure," Scott said nervously as he rubbed the back of his neck.
"Why are you worried about Jean?" Alison asked as she started to pick out a few two pieces and bikinis.
"Well.I, well.um," Scott was at a lost of words. Sure he and Jean have hung out before, and stuff. It just all seemed different with Alison, a lot of things were just different and yet there were some similarities. For one, Alison had a bellybutton ring and an ear cuff, some thing that Jean would not do.
"Well, Jean doesn't have to know, besides this is just between friends right?" Alison asked looking up at him.
Scott smiled, she was right, "Yea."
"Good, be right back!" Alison sped off into the dressing room. Scott took his seat on the couch that was there for people who were often here to preview their person in the dressing room. However Scott began to twiddle his thumbs and did not notice when Alison came out.
"What do you think?" Alison asked and Scott nearly fell out of his seat.
She had a nice firm body, and a nice pair of curves. He had to admit her figure was better kept up with than Jean's or Kitty's. She wore a black two-piece that really left little to the imagination. She turned around in front of him and by looking at his expression it was one that would knock almost every one at the institute off their feet. She then went in to come out with a red two-piece and the top was strapless. She looked at herself in the mirror that had three sides.
"I like this one, what do you think Scott?" Alison asked as she was turning around in the mirror to see if it fit her in the right places.
Scott gulped, "It looks nice. I like it better than the black one."
"Really?" Alison asked as she turned to him, and he just nodded as she then went into the dressing room once again.
"Oh Summers, she is one hot babe!" Duncan Matthews said as he saw him sitting there. "For a mutant girl, she has a nice pair of curves."
"What are you doing here Matthews?" Scott asked dryly.
"My girl wanted to go shopping for a new swim suit," Duncan shrugged. "But I rather be here with the girl you're with."
"Stay away from her, Duncan." Scott warned as Alison came out in a royal blue string bikini. Both teenagers turned to the brunette beauty.
"Alison, you look hot!" Duncan said as he approached her and was checking her out from top to bottom. "I have to admit you have a lot of good assets."
"Well, these assets are not for you to ogle, considering you are a taken man." Alison said curtly as she turned to see her reflection.
"I guess that rules out Summers too, huh? He's taken by Jean isn't he?" Duncan asked with a sly smirk.
"WE are here as FRIENDS," Alison pushed her finger into Duncan's chest. "I asked for his friendly opinion."
"Right, whatever." Duncan said as he took hold of her shoulders roughly, "you have to admit I'm better than Summers don't you think?"
Scott got up and pushed Duncan off of her, "I think you didn't hear the lady. She was not yours."
Duncan just left saying, "You'll regret that Summers."
"Are you ok?" Scott asked gently as he placed his hands on her arms gently to see if he bruised her in any fashion. "He didn't hurt you did he?"
"No, I'm fine." Alison felt herself blush from his warm hands on arms. Scott realized this and removed his hands from her, "Well.I think I'll by this one and the red one. I liked another one and the skin colored one , so I'll probably get all of them. So I'll be right back."
Scott watched her scurry off into the dressing room again, but she came out quickly again dressed in her clothes that she was in before. They made their way to the counter and went on their way. Alison noticed the dress shop and waltzed in with Scott following close behind. She was looking though bunch of dresses and didn't see what she liked. She knew the other girls were going to wear whatever they had to the Sadie Hawkins dance that was earlier in the year, so she wanted something different.
Scott saw a dress that was simple yet it looked elegant. He picked up and held it up to Alison; she smiled and quickly came over to him and looked the dress over. Scott warmly smiled, as it seemed he just made Alison's day by looking at her face expression. She quickly looked at the dress size and it was her size, she then went to the counter to pay.
The duo went back to Scott's car and he began to drive off to somewhere of his choice. But it seemed he drove them both to the countryside. Alison got out to look at the view and was taken away at the view of the city from where they were.
"It's beautiful," Alison said as she sat down in a patch of flowers and to look out to the city.
"Yea, I would often come up here to think when I was frustrated." Scott said as he took the space next to her.
"It's really nice, I bet it's even more of a sight when the sun sets," Alison said as she placed her chin on her hand to make quite a cute picture.
"Tell me, Alison Xavier, how do you manage to turn life around?" Scott asked with a warm smile.
"What do you mean?" Alison asked looking at him, surprised by his question.
"Well life sure was not fun until you came. Rogue was quiet and distant for a while, and then you came. She's now being a little more open with the rest of us, and you manage to have wrapped Logan around your little finger," Scott said with a playful smirk.
"Honestly I didn't do anything." Alison said with a shrug, "Rogue wanted a friend she could trust with no secrets. Logan, well I've known him since I was a kid.so you know it was just some relationship we had. As for life at the manor, I guess I know how to have fun."
Scott chuckled and leaned closer to whisper in her ear, "At least with you, we are on our toes."
Alison turned to face him and his face was so close that she felt his breath on her lips. She turned herself as she touched his forehead and there was a soft blue glow. She then pulled off his sunglasses but was stopped by his hand on her wrist. Alison knew his fear and whispered, "Trust me."
Scott felt his heart stop as said that, her lips were closer than he thought. He let her wrist go and the sunglasses came off to see her in normal color. He saw the whole world without the need to cover his eyes with his glasses and turned to face her once again.
"How did you?" Scott asked as he recalled what happened with Rogue and Evan.
"You have the most beautiful eyes," Alison looked into his violet-blue eyes getting lost in them as he was in her sea of green-blue. Their faces began to draw closer as their lips barely touched each other there was a shaking beneath them that brought them back to the reality. Scott quickly put his glasses back on to see the brotherhood standing behind them.
"Look what we have here guys," Lance Alvers a.k.a. Avalanche said with a smirk on his face.
"This is interesting," Todd Tolaski a.k.a. Toad said, "hey who's the girl?"
"This my friends is Alison Xavier." Then there was a blue blur in front of the duo to see the one and only Pietro Maximoff a.k.a. Quicksilver, "You sure turned into a cutie."
"Did you forget I'm older than you Pietro," Alison spattered out at him with a glare. "I can't believe you turned out this way."
"You left, Alison!" Pietro accused with a pointing finger.
Wanda Maximoff a.k.a. Scarlet Witch walked down to look at Alison with soft eyes, "did you leave Alison by freewill or by force?"
Alison stood up to look at Wanda straight into her eyes, "Wanda, believe whatever you want to, but your father was the one who took my from my home."
"You lie!" Pietro stated as Alison whipped her head to look at him, she glanced through both of the twins' memories and they were both altered. She had a shocked expression on her face and backed away from them.
"No," Alison whispered as tears began to fall down her face.
"Alison, let's leave." Scott took a hold of her arm and led her to the car t only be stopped by Fred Dukes a.k.a. Blob.
"Sorry, Summers I can't let you by." Fred said simply, "We have orders to take her with us."
"Not with out a fight," Scott said as he and Alison were in fighting stance. Alison had quickly gotten over the shock and knew there was no way around this. Scott blasted Blob to have him only get pushed back a few feet.
Wanda was going to use her powers till Alison got a hold of her mentally and put her to sleep. Pietro started running around her in a whirlwind circle. Alison tried to pin point him but was getting distracted by his speed and Lance making the earthquake. She saw Scott being crushed in blob's grip and quickly called for help at the Xavier manor.

~ Help, we need Help! ~ Alison's voice rang in the older X-men's ears. Quickly they all began looking for Alison's signal on Cerebo. Xavier quickly found her, ~ X-men she's on the outskirts with Scott and the brotherhood on attacking them. ~
Quickly they made their way over there in the X-helicopter. Storm flew out to cause a wind to blow the brotherhood away from the two teens. However Alison had gotten angry and her surge of power was taking over. She began to throw ice blasts at the brotherhood as they tried to attack again. Xavier quickly landed the helicopter to reach his daughter.
"Alison, what are you doing?" Scott saw that Alison's eyes were glowing and they were not her normal color. "Alison, stop!"
Scott was pushed out of the way as her mind remained focused on some unseen target, but Logan had helped Scott to stand back on his feet. Logan held Scott back knowing he wanted to stop Alison and kept on struggling.
"Scott, let the professor handle this." Logan told him as Xavier began to probe Alison's mind.
~ Alison.ALISON! ~ Xavier shouted through their bond and Alison had stopped. She turned to look at him and her eyes were flashing back and forth from her normal state and to the power state.
~ Alison, listen to me. You need to calm down; your power surges are due to your strong emotions. Alison listen to my voice, it's me your father.you can control this, just calm down. ~ Xavier called to and Alison began to grip her head in her hands. She began to cry out in agony as she struggled to control her powers. ~ That's it Alison. Calm down. ~
Alison fell to her knees to only cry out more as she struggled with the power within her. Her eyes continued to flash back and forth between states. However the brotherhood were about to attack the distracted father and daughter till they were blocked off my Beast, Storm, Wolverine, and Scott.
"Let's go, we saw what we needed to see anyway." Pietro said as they all turned to leave.
"What did you need to see?" Scott grabbed Pietro and held him by the collar of his outfit.
Pietro just smirked, "like I'd tell you anything."
"You better start talking bub," Logan had his claws at Pietro's neck as he gulped at having the claws so close to his neck.
"It was Magneto, he told us to see if she had some strong powers like Wanda. That's all!" Pietro cried out.
"You liar!" Scott sneered.
"Let him go," Alison said back to her normal self. She was being carried by her father and barely conscious. "He's.telling..the..truth."
Scott let him go and quickly went to her side. Xavier handed his daughter into Scott's arms as they turned to get into the Helicopter. The brotherhood watched as the X-men got into the aircraft and left. They just stood there watching it go away as Wanda began to awake in Toad's arms. She quickly got up and saw the X-men leaving.
"What happened?" Wanda asked.
"They called for help," Toad said simply. "That girl is a telepath."
"I know," Wanda said simply as she stood at where her brother was standing. "She's the one that Magneto's after isn't she?"
"Yea, but what he wants with her.I don't know." Pietro said simply as he watched the black Helicopter went out of sight. "Something just doesn't feel right."
"I know what you mean, why did she start crying," Wanda said civilly to her brother probably the first time since she came into contact with him.
"I don't know."

So Wanda and Pietro know Alison? How? I guess we'll find out sometimes later in the story, eh? ^^, review please.
