Here it is sorry for the delay but I hope this makes up, so without anymore words enjoy!!!
Chapter 9: Guest visit
"Remember the worst is yet to come!!!"
What did he mean by that? I guess I'd better keep an eye out for anything abnormal.
Connor was thinking to himself as he was making his repairs to his mask and the electronics internally.
The main visual was damaged but repairable and his comms device needed to be boosted for better frequency.
"So you just invited him here? Without consulting me first?!" Emma said feeling a bit offended her opinion didn't matter as they were both left in charge while The Professor was away
"Slow down Emma, I did approve of this but what Rachel suggested was…
"And there we go again, it's all about her isn't it!!??" Emma said now getting wound up.
Scott knew she and Rachel did not get on and after Jean died as he tried to move on as she told him to do so, it had been a bit difficult with his future daughter not approving of him and Emma being together but he had to try and get them to work this out some way.
"Emma…it's not all about her, I mean she's my daughter and…
"From an alternate future!!! If she's all you care about then I -
She was cut off in mid sentece by Scott bringing her face to his as he just kissed her out of sheer surprise, as both enjoyed the moment as they broke and looked at one another in shock.
Words could not describe what had just happened and reading Scott's mind now had told her everything and it was what she wanted and now finally has.
"As I said it's not all about her." Scott sternly said.
With that said they just picked up where they both left off from as Emma knew where his mindset was currently at.
"So when you write up any simple text like so you can achieve yourselves your very own flash text." Connor said as his class of seniors were taking notes on his every word.
"Now we'll move on to creating hyperlinks, but also keep in mind when making one make sure it's not some stupid name like ..com" Connor joked as some of the class found it funny.
"With that said, start making a list of suitable site names that could be used for your project and…
The door knocked and opened up to reveal Bobby as he motioned to see him a second.
"Okay just list those names I'll be back in two ticks." Connor instructed his class as he left to talk with his friend.
"You ready to do this?" Bobby asked.
"Yeah just tell Professor S and F where I went, so if you'll excuse I'm gonna slip into something more comfortable." Connor said as he went off at super speed.
Bobby went to tend to Connor's class. "Uh sorry guys it seems Mr. Masters had to attend an emergency…so dismissed!!!" Bobby said as all of the class did so.
"He what?!" Scott said.
"He said sorry but it was an emergency." Bobby said covering for Connor.
"Fine but he better have a good reason why." Emma said.
"When is that Xtreme guy coming? It's nearly twelve." Scott asked.
"He'll be here, I'm sure of it, it's not like he will just use the front door right?" Bobby said.
Just then the door bell rang.
Hank went to answer it as he opened the door as it revealed to him a man in black.
"Hi I don't know if you know but I'm here to…
"Uh yes I do know and I must say it's a pleasure to meet you Xtreme." Hank said as they shook hands.
"Let me take you to meet the rest of the staff if you'll just follow me." Hank said as Xtreme followed.
The door to the staff room opened as they all saw Hank enter.
"I do believe we have a visitor." Hank said as in entered Xtreme.
"You came! We all thought you weren't gonna show up." Rachel squealed in delight.
"Now I did say I would and plus I had my cell set to vibrate." Xtreme joked.
Just then Scott and Emma entered as they both saw their guest had arrived and went to greet him.
"You're here? Oh good then allow me to introduce myself I'm…
"Yeah your that Cyclops guy from yesterday." Xtreme said shaking his hand.
They all looked a bit confused to how he knew it was Scott underneath the mask.
"It ain't that hard to put two and two together those shades will give you away." Xtreme said.
As Scott realised he had a point as did everyone else.
"Well let's give you the grand tour then." Bobby said.
They all decided to show the superhero around the school as he just followed their lead and tried not to let anything slip.
He was taken round the various areas and different rooms, classes and the mansion itself as he was enjoying his tour…well second one but they didn't know that as he acted all surprised.
As then he was taken through some double doors and walked into a hall full of kids as he realised what this was.
He just walked through the rows of students who were in surprise to see the man in black as he walked up to the stage and took a seat.
"Okay everyone as you can see Xtreme managed to take some time to see you all so without further ado here he is!!!" Bobby said introducing him.
Xtreme took front stage as some clapping and cheering for the hero as he felt appreciated like never before.
"Thank you, I came here today because of a request from a special friend of mine." Xtreme said as he glanced over to Rachel who was blushing in the far back.
"So since I'm here any questions?" Xtreme asked.
Students put their hands up in numbers as he picked one who looked ike a bird.
"Yeah you bird boy." Xtreme said acknowledging him.
"Are you a mutant?" he asked.
They all began to talk amongst themselves knowing that was the question they needed to know if he was or not.
"Good question…uh…
"Beak." Beak said.
"That's a question I get asked a lot and to be honest I am not a mutant…I gained my powers from my father." Xtreme said.
All of them were now intrigued as another hand was raised.
"Yeah the blonde beauty over there." Xtreme pointed out in a joking manner.
She blushed at that. "If you're not a mutant then what was your dad?" she asked.
"Now that's a really good question and a story telling answer will follow Miss…
"It's Paige." Paige said as she giggled at him asking her name.
"My father came from a planet called Zargon, there lied a civlisation that existed before humanity, they were known as Zargonians, once a proud and noble race of warriors but a war between two faction split the planet apart, my grandparents escaped but the planet was destroyed, they were the last Zargonians." Xtreme explained.
There was just absolute silence as he continued on.
"Years later they were killed by a renegade Zargonian, but my father escaped and was travelling the galaxy using his abilities for good and fighting evil, my father was a hero." Xtreme said.
No sound was made as he went on.
"But he accidentally crashlanded on Earth and was stranded, he met some interesting characters, made friends and even met my mother." Xtreme said.
They all said "AWWW" as that was the sappy part as he went on.
"However he died after he saved the universe from being destroyed by a Dark God, ever since I learned of my power and what he did I've lived by example." Xtreme went on.
Everyone felt bad for what happened to his father and also knew why he was driven to save others as the story had reached most of the students even the staff as some were talking amongst themselves.
He went on as he took more questions as he started showing his powers off and they were just astounded by the amount of powers he had.
Scott and Emma were talking and watching them was Rachel who did not approve of their relationship and was wondering what the Ice Queen was plotting and entered her mind.
She saw what was on her mind and the image was her and her father kissing and it was only a couple of hours ago and it made her feel sick he would do this to disgrace her mother's memory as then she just left before anyone could see her cry.
As the Q and A was over and students and teachers went back to class Xtreme was told he could stick around for a while as he just went to the gardens and looked at the nicely gown grass and flowers as he strolled around.
I don't know why I never did look around this part of the mansion but I have to admit it's beautiful and…
Just then he heard crying as he went to investigate and saw that it was Rachel, she seemed to be upset by something as he knew he had to check on her.
"Hey red you ok?" Xtreme asked her.
She looked up as he saw her eyes were a little red from crying as she wiped her tears away.
"Yeah just peachy." Rachel said.
He took a seat next to her as she was drying her eyes.
"It doesn't suit you." as he wiped the tears away with his finger "Being sad is definitely not your thing, something's bothering you, I can tell?" Xtreme asked her.
"It's nothing really just stupid family stuff." Rachel tried to stay off her problem.
"Nothing about family is stupid believe me, I've heard it all." Xtreme said.
"Ok what about your dad who just lost your mom and is now already jumping on the next bimbo who's a complete slut and has never even heard of a bra!!!" Rachel spat as he guessed why she was angry.
"I don't blame you I would be mad as hell, heck I went to such lengths to stop my mom from dating again, like this one time I planted stuff around my house and when he saw the conveniently opened medicine cabinet which had poking out a box of Yeastaway." Xtreme said.
Rachel laughed at that finidng the idea he had funny.
"There we go that's the face I wanna see." Xtreme said to her as he smiled now she was happy again.
"You actually went that far?" she asked.
"Yeah it did work but my mom was really sad and felt like she could never love again and that's when I knew I have to let her move on find love and happiness anew, I had no right to deny her of that." Xtreme explained.
Rachel hearing that made her think of how hard it must be for her father to lose the one true love he ever had and trying yo move on but his stubborn daughter was not giving him or her a chance…even if she was a home wrecking slut.
"Maybe you're right I should try to be reasonable with him…and her it's not fair of me to do that to them both I should give them a chance." Rachel said now realising what needed to be done.
Just then the dark hero's ultra sensitive hearing picked up something on the police scanners and it sounded big.
"Oh damn!!! I gotta go, tell everyone I'm sorry for leaving so quick and thanks for showing me this wonderful place, knowing these kids will get the best education and learn by example from all of you they will be the future of mutants and humans." Xtreme said.
"I will and you're a hero it's what you do so…" Rachel then just gave him a peck on the cheek.
He was a bit surprised by that as he blushed under his mask.
"Go get em…hero." she said.
As he looked to her and smiled and just took off to the call.
She watched him fly off and was feeling like her breathe was taken away by his mere presence and he even gave her sound advice…Why can't I read your mind? If only I knew who you were.
He arrived at where the supposed disturbance was as it was at some office supply store, who in the hell would want to hold up a store that sells office supply?!
Landing down by the sidewalk he looked to see people running out of there and the police were already on crowd control as he went up to who he assumed was in charge of the cops.
"Oh thank god you arrived!!!"
"Really? I'm actually needed?!" Xtreme joked.
"Yeah none of my guys will go in there that guy is a psycho!!!"
"What's he packin?" Xtreme asked.
"A machine gun, a bag of who the hell knows and that freakish armour of his."
"What did the armour look like?" Xtreme asked.
"Like it was all bones and stuff."
That rung a bell for Connor. "Wait did you say bone armour?" Xtreme asked a little nervous.
"Yeah and he was just shooting the place up for no reason."
"Get this area cleared now!!!" Xtreme said as he went on in to confront the assailant.
He entered the building and heard the hail of gunfire as he just walked towards it as the storm of bullets came flying at him and just bounced off him he walked forward to the culprit.
The sounds of manic laughing was all to familiar but something was off…
If it is him then why hasn't he started his game yet?
Walking through the gunfire it seemed to then just stop as the smoke cleared he saw who it was as his worst fear was confirmed.
"Alright whatever crazy scheme you've got going it ends now!!!" Xtreme said.
As he saw the bone clad armour and in his hand was the machine gun as he just stood there still and without a second thought he rushed at him at super speed and knocked him back against the wall but something he saw confirmed another thought of his.
The culprit was just a robot as it layed there in pieces as he inspected the atmoton as then a small screen emerged from his chest and on the screen the picture of the same culprit was on it.
"Hello Zargonian…it's been a while hasn't it?"
"Why did I have a feeling it was only you that would do something this crazy and incredibly dumb!?" Xtreme said.
"Oh you have not changed at all son of X'ondir."
"What are you after BoneYard?" Xtreme asked the villain.
"Simple…I want to play a game." BoneYard said as something came out of the smashed robot.
He saw a small device come out as he just took it and up came a map of New Yrok and several places were marked with red dots.
"I've planted bombs on those red dots, if you can disarm them all in time I'll tell you where I am." BoneYard instructed.
Connor knew this guy was a sociopath and an unpredictable, stereotypical mad bomber, knowing this made him fear for the innocent people who could get hurt from his actions, he had to play by his rules in order to beat him.
"Fine but still why?" Xtreme asked.
"I don't have a why I just "do things" and you'd better hurry son of X'ondir, time's running out…good luck." BoneYard said.
A timer appeared…
40.00.00
Is all he had as it started to countdown he had to act fast before someone got hurt or worse as he exited the building and flew off at super speed as he checked the device and went to the first location.
I hope to god he's just bluffing…the last time was bad enough.
Connor remembered the last time they fought as it ended with several casualties after a bomb went off in a hospital and his ex-girlfriend being shot after he kidnapped her but she survived as it made him realise he had to leave her for her own sake, it broke his heart to do that to her, even though she got married last year he was glad she moved on.
But now he was back and he'd be damned if he was going to ruin his new life and hurt anyone here…Not on my watch!!! Not this time you sick freak!!!
So a new villain has emerged, what sort of game will he play with out hero? what dangers will he face? and who will be caught up in all of this?
What you think? Reviews please!!!
