Thanks for the reviews.
I stared at my chest in the mirror, my scar was almost gone and it had only been a few months since I had gotten injured. I looked in the mirror again and saw Mike standing behind me.
I smiled and turned, "any reason you're in my room while I'm half naked?" I asked, he scoffed.
"Yeah I'm waiting for the rest to come off" he said, I smirked and put on a sports bra.
"Nice try" I said, he smiled and walked over to me. He wrapped his arms around my middle and pulled me close.
"Do I have to try harder?" he asked and kissed me gently, I pushed him away jokingly.
"Come on, you said you were going to help me train more" I said, he sighed.
"Honey you've already trained, your almost as powerful as my uncle and I" he said holding my chin with the side of his index finger and his thumb, I nodded.
"I want to be just as powerful as you" I said to him mentally.
"You know that would be dangerous, your power levels are high but if you can't control them properly" he said to me mentally and paused.
"I could destroy everyone my mind can connect to in a matter of seconds" I said, he smiled at me.
"I knew you'd understand" he said and kissed me gently.
"Come on, Kathy called, she wanted to see you at her, and Raven's apartment" Mike said, I nodded confused.
"Hmmm wonder what she could want" I pondered putting on a shirt. The drive over was nice, it was July, the warm weather bothered me but the nice breezes made up for it a little bit. I walked up to the building with Mike, I clicked the elevator button.
"Its not working" I said pointing out the obvious, Mike raised an eyebrow, he sniffed around.
"Somethings not right" he said, he had a look on his face. Control, he had the mask on and I knew something bad had happened.
"Go back to the" he started, I headed for the stairs, he chased me calling my name.
I made it to the floor my two mothers were living on, I didn't have to knock on their door because it had been turned into splinters. I looked inside, all the nice things my old mom had bought with the money she got from modeling had been trashed, I stepped inside. Mike grabbed my wrist and yanked me back.
"No Ally I can't let you go in there" Mike said, I swallowed the lump in my throat.
"I have to" I said, I could smell blood. I walked around the apartment, everything was wrecked. I looked in the master bedroom, I noticed an open door leading to a bathroom. I walked in, the curtain was closed around the tub/shower. I pulled it back quickly and screamed.
Kathy McCoy, my adoptive mother's body was floating in the tub, scratches similar to the ones cause by Logan and Michaels claws littered her body. The water it was floating in was dark red, I realized only a little water was mixed in to keep the body afloat. I buried my face in my hands and sobbed away, I felt Mike wrap his arms around me. I felt him trying to get into my mind, I opened it and felt him slowly comfort my shattered mind. He helped me get to the door, well where the door was.
"Stop" I said, he stopped, I felt something important was in the room. I looked around the entry hall. A note lay underneath the splinters of the door. I picked it up and looked at it, I read it aloud.
"To find her you need to follow the path that has been traveled by the ones you love. Or her broken body will forever lay in a thick coating of protection from everything" I said. Protection, what protection?
"What does it mean?" Mike pondered.
"Someone has my mother" I said, we walked to the car in silence. When we got in he sighed and turned the car on.
"We'll go home and call the others, then we'll figure out what to do" Mike said, I nodded. Trying to figure out the note I decided to break it down. The ones I love, who did I love, Mike, my mom, Logan, Kylie definitely she had become so protective of me over the past few months, John, Connor, David, Rogue, Pyro. What did they have in common, and what did they go through. I kept thinking, what could possibly be happening to my mother. Each scenario worse and worse, it finally hit me.
My heart must have sped up because Mike looked at me worried. "You ok?" he asked, I shook my head and decided to cover. "I just found the person that raised me sliced to bits, I'm not even in the same vicinity of ok" I said letting my anger and fear leak out at him.
"Don't worry we'll figure everything out" he said, I looked at him and nodded.
A thick coating of protection, the one thing that was indestructible that would have related to my loved ones. Adumentanium. I knew it was meant for me, it was about my mother, the ones I loved. I knew then this was my fight and I was the only one to fight it. Logan, Storm, Kurt, the professor, Magneto, Pyro, Rogue and John had gone to some conference to support Hank. When we drove in I made up an excuse to go to bed because I felt sick, I was really thinking up a plan to find my mother.
No one could remember where they were when they had been experimented on. I opened my mind to my mothers, I immediately got a response. Baker Lake Canada. I searched through everyones mind. Connor, Mike, Scarlett, David, Jason and Kylie were trying to figure out if they should call Warren and Jess, she was due any day no one wanted to add on stress. I went down to the garage quietly and listened to them argue, I didn't even notice Emma and Scott when I passed them. I got into a quick little silver car, and drove away quietly. I would find my mother one way or another.
