Travel
Two days after everyone had left the mansion, it had been invaded. Everything was turned around and either smashed or just planed ruined. None of the X-men knew this however because they were 90-so miles away. The first day they walked over 40 miles to get a good head start until it was about midnight. Logan's group had wanted to keep going, but the professor had explicit rules about making sure the students didn't get over exhausted. The next day was just as rigorous, but started earlier. On the morning of the third day Kitty awoke to a fawn sniffing at her shoes.
'OH wow,' Kitty thought. 'She must really trust us. She is so beautiful. I guess we have something in common her and I,' She noticed an enlarged bump in the deer's abdomen.
'Both of us are fighting for our life, and someone else's.' Kitty reached up to pet the gentle fawn when a loud unpleasant sound emitted from Bobby. Comically the deer sniffed the air before jolting away. Kitty began to laugh, and then she smelled the air making her gag.
"GOD BOBBY!" Kitty screamed throwing her pillow at him missing and hitting Evan.
The group of teens groaned shifting in a daze waking themselves up.
"Vhat Keety? Vhat's Vrong?" Kurt shot up scanning the area for potential danger. Kitty giggled.
"Oh, like nothing Kurt. Just Bobby making a lethal gas over there." At this point everyone had smelt the air, they all started gagging and running for a retreat.
"Zat iz disgusting," A little blond girl whispered as a bubble formed around her and she began to float a few feet above everyone's head.
"Nice Freezo!" Two identical boys said smiling and giving Bobby a thumbs up.
"What! I was sleeping!" Bobby huffed as he started packing his sleeping bag. Everyone laughed. If felt good to be able to laugh, even at a time like this.
"Well you know what they say dude, whoever smelt it delt it!" Evan pointed at Kitty knowing fully well that it wasn't her.
"Like totally rude Evan. Gross!" Kitty glared at Evan.
Kurt laughed so hard that he made himself *bamf* onto a tree branch.
"Kurt! You are supposed to like defend my honor and what not!" Kurt pulled his blanket over his shoulders making himself a cape.
"Ja Meine Liebe! Come here you scoundrel" Kurt was about to pounce on Evan and Bobby before a crack was heard in the woods. Kurt ran in front on Kitty and everyone got in a fighting position.
"Show yourself!"
They all clamed when they saw it was just Hank returning with firewood.
"Mr. McCoy when did you get up?"
"About a half hour ago Kitty, now everyone lets make some breakfast."
"Sweet! I am Soooo completely hungry." And just to make a point the kid's stomach started to growl.
"Ok everyone. How does fish and wild wolfberries sound?"
"Ehhhh?"
"Oh they are fine to eat," Hank specified.
"Vell then! Everyone dig in!" All the students ate hungrily, the morning event pushed to the backs of their brain. As everyone was finishing up Kitty came back to join the group. She had moved away from everyone in case the food made her sick. She had eaten some berries and had some ginger ale, but she was still having a problem keeping food down. All her mothering books said this would pass around 4 to 5 months. She sure hoped so.
"Keety?" dazed Kitty looked up at Kurt.
"Yes?"
"Oh nothing ve are just leaving now so you should do some stretches."
"Ok," All the students would do a series of stretches that they found would help them walk faster and cramp less. As she did her stretches she found her mind wondering, as it has been doing for the past few days. As she would pull her arm over her head she would imagine what color hair her baby would have. When she did her calf pulls she would think what she could possibly name the child. Then it came to the ultimate question: Is it a boy or a girl?
"All right. Lets get going we should hit our destination in about 15 miles so maybe around 3pm." A sudden pinging sound began. Everyone looked around confused for a few seconds before Dr. McCoy pulled out his phone.
"Hello…Yes this is he… Yes Logan…Logan, please you don't have to yell…" Hank stood for a minute before just closing the phone.
"Mr. McCoy what was that all about?" A young boy asked as he pulled at his tail.
"Oh nothing Kevin just Mr. Logan telling me that he is almost at the location…and also that our group is far behind, but I doubt that highly!" Hank laughed
"I bet Logan will get there too early," "and they wont know what to do with him." Each twin took turns finishing each other's thought before high-fiveing.
Everyone agreed and headed off in the prearranged direction.
"Can we be together forever Jack?" The red head pulled the almost 6 foot man toward her, making him stumble.
"I don't see why not." He laughed making her smile. She seemed to love it when he smiled. "Listen Gabby, can you promise me something?'
Gabby looked up at her man with a smile as bright as could be.
"Anything."
"Can you meet me at the abandoned house on Cornell road tomorrow night?"
"Ok, but Jack why can't you tell me whatever there is to tell me now?"
"Just please. Tomorrow ok Gabbs?" The 20 year old smiled.
"Yes Jacks. I'll see you there." Jack kissed the sweet girl on the head. They parted opposite ways down the street.
Gabrielle Sanchez spun in circles over and over until she practically ran into her gate. She laughed at herself as she pushed the sequence of buttons needed to open the gate, along with the retina scan and the thumbprint. The gates opened letting her glide along the path, literally, she began to float inches above the pavement.
'Gabrielle? Why are you coming home so late?'
'Crap.' Gabby thought as she realized she was caught.
'Please come to my office.'
'Yes Professor Xavior.'
"Gabrielle… would you care to explain?" Professor Xavior sat before her in blue jeans and a red shirt, showing he had been asleep.
"Well…Professor it's not that bad."
"What's not that bad?"
"You see Professor I was with Jack."
"Oh I see, so have you told him anything yet?" Gabby blushed shaking her head no.
"Gabrielle. You have been dating this boy for three years now. I am not your father so I have no say in what you do, but how much longer are you going to lie to him?"
"I think tomorrow he might ask me to marry him Professor. If he does, then I'll tell him."
"Gabrielle," The professor sighed rubbing his temple. "You have been a student here for over 6 years, and now you are a helper. I can't help but feel responsible for you."
"Professor. I know I was one of your first students, but I think I'm ready to leave now. I'm ready to have my own life, a life with Jack. This will always be my home Professor." Gabby picked up her purse, smiled, and left the office.
"I see." The professor frowned. He had never liked Jack McCree, but it was none of his business.
Ya ya I bet you all saw that coming didn't you…what? You didn't wow. I'm just that good. But I'll keep going. Oh I know you all love me! Anyway…here you all go.
Gabby was standing in front of the empty broken down house at exactly 7pm the next night. She was so nervous she could feel the electricity pulsing through her fingers to the ground. She grabbed onto her dress giving her hands something to do. She had never felt so nervous in her life, excluding the day when she found out that she was a mutant with the power to control electricity. That had been very nerve racking, however this day was a good close second.
"Hey."
Gabby gasped turning and falling into Jack's arms.
"Jack!" she scolded, "I was about to hurt you!"
"Oh I'm sorry." Jack laughed and the wrinkles around his eyes showed. "Now come on, there is something I want to tell you. Not here though."
Jack pulled Gabby behind the house. There was a two-person table with lit oil lamps and roses, the trees shaded the area making it a secret rendezvous. The oils gave off a mixed smell of Jasmine and ylang ylang, enhancing the romantic atmosphere. Gabby blushed at the extravagance of it all. Jack pulled Gabby's seat out for her and then sat in his own.
"Gabby," he started. " We have been together for over three years now." He waited as she nodded her head in agreement. " You are now 20 and I 25, I think it is time for us to take the next step."
Gabby bit her lip to hold in the tears behind her eyes.
"Gabrielle Consuelo Sanchez will you-" At that moment Gabrielle began gasping for air. She felt a sudden surge of power, one that she has never felt before.
"Gabby?"
She looked at him tears streaming down her face. "I'm losing control!"
"Control? Control of what Gabby? How can I help you? Do you want me to call 911?"Jack was starting to panic, sparks were starting to fly off of her and onto his bare arms and legs.
"GABBY!" It was then that the professor wheeled from around the corner.
'You have to calm down Gabrielle.'
'I can't professor. I can't. I need help. All this power is too much…its too much professor!'
"Mr. Xavior Please help her! I don't know what is wrong with her."
A white light shined from Gabby as she reached for Jack, she was reaching for comfort and love, but her hands were now weapons. She reached for him catching his ear in her hand. The flesh desinagrated, castrating the wound before it could even bleed. Her arm fell on his neck to his shoulders burning him for life. He screamed in pain trying to escape his now hazardous love.
"WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING!?!"
Xavior called for immediate backup, but the fastest they could be there was 10 minutes too late.
'Gabrielle you have to try to focus on something. You have to try.' The professor pushed with all his might to get into her brain, but this power that had overcome her was far beyond anything he had ever witnessed. He was thinking as fast as he could to come up with a solution that could knock her out or something.
'I feel like I am being torn apart!'
Gabby floated above the ground suspended in mid air writhing in pain. The grass underneath her had been burned away from the pure power. Once again Gabby's body moved toward Jack.
"J…J-Jack…" Tears formed in her eyes only to evaporate as soon as they touched her skin, making steam envelop her head. Her glowing fingers danced along his arms leaving blisters in their wake.
'PLEASE PROFESSOR KILL ME!'
The professor was shocked at these words, but could see there was nothing else he could do. She was going to kill the poor boy and there was only one way he could stop her.
'I'm sorry…Gabby,' A tear slide down the professor's face.
'Thank you. Tell him I would have said yes.'
The now lifeless body fell to the floor, a final smile etched onto the young girls face forever.
You see there are always two sides of every story. I was thinking of X-men the movie 3 when I was writing this so, yup! And yes I did have to kill her. But this is very important TO THE STORY YOU WILL SEE…OH YOU WILL SEE! Ummmmmmmmm…. Yup 10 more review before the next chapter, and I mean it this time!!
