Chapter 5
CARE
(Valerie)
I woke up in Hank's lab, he wasn't there though. I got up and looked around.
"Did we win yet?" I asked aloud.
"Not quite yet." I heard Scott say walking in.
"I'm going back to sleep."
"You can't just sleep through this." He said.
"Yes, I can."
(Raina)
I looked at Wade who was walking in front of me.
"How long has it been," I asked.
"A couple of hours it's probably going to be night soon." He said.
"It's going to get cold soon."
"Are you trying to punish yourself for what you've done?"
"In a way yes I guess I am."
"If you start to be good then what am I suppose to do?"
"Maybe vow to take down someone else."
"Nice, try Raina you can't talk your way out."
"I know," I said my head then perked up. "Waters nearby," I said running towards the pond.
"Can you get us back?"
"Yes, it'll take some time though do me a favor and don't annoy me for a couple of minutes," I said. He grumbled sitting near the water.
(Myra)
I hit another alien with my bat.
"Since when did we get here?" I asked.
"Beats me I'm just glad to be out of Xavier's house," Pietro said.
"You make a fine X-men," I said just to annoy him.
"Why are we on clean up?"
"It's either this or helping with finding those relics things. Which means we'd have to go back to the house." I said.
"Alright, let's go," Pietro said. It was chaos in the house. I saw Jasmine in her suit and also Kira.
"Going on a mission?" I asked.
"Yeah, try and relax if you can," Jasmine said. I turned to Pietro.
"Well, come on I'm exhausted."
"Where are we going?"
"My room," I said.
(Valerie)
I was sitting on the medic bed.
"What have we found?" I asked Scott.
"We know the location of the second relic," Scott said.
"Got any cigarettes?" I asked holding my head.
"What happened to cutting back?"
"I almost fell out of a goddamn plane," I said.
"Maybe if you ask me nicely." I picked up my pillow and threw it at him.
"Fuck you Summers get me drugs!" I yelled.
"Someones being moody." I heard Warren say as he walked it.
"Angel, cigarettes."
"Not happening, I came to see how you were." He said.
"She's being a-"
"Ah, ah don't start with me, Sunny Dee. I'm an ill, poor, patient." I said. Then we heard the blackbird.
"Sounds like Blue and Princess are back," I said. We all walked to the living room.
(Vienna)
"We've returned thank goodness," Elizabeth said.
"Let's head to the lab." Jason said to Joshua. They walked off, just then I sensed something. I went to the backyard.
(Raina)
"Ready," I said.
"Finally, you'd think for a soul your magic would work faster." He said.
"Come on," I said pulling him into the water with me. We appeared in a backyard.
"You could have warned me ya sea witch now I'm soaked," Wade said. I rolled my eyes. I then saw Vienna run outside. She ran towards me and gave me a hug.
"Did I miss something?" I asked.
"You've changed." She said looking at me.
"Who the hell are these people?" A girl with short black hair asked.
"Names Wade," Wade said walking up to her but he so happened to trip from a tug of my magic. "Damn you Raina!" He yelled. I tossed my black hair back drying myself off.
"I'm Raina, Vienna's older sister," I said.
"She's the devil," Wade said.
"This is Wade, my personal stalker." I then noticed a guy with Angel wings and one with sunglasses. "Who are you guys?" I asked.
"I'm Valerie." The girl said.
"Warren."
"Scott."
"Which one's yours Valerie?" I asked. She looked irritated at this.
"Sis behave," Vienna said.
"Right I forgot we're under war. Where's Josh?"
"The lab."
"Well, I'll find him. Are you coming Wade who's going to keep me from doing bad things?" I said looking back at him. He followed reluctantly. I then ran into a guy with silver hair.
"Hello." He said looking me over before he got hit from behind.
"I'm behind you, you ass." It was a girl with brown hair.
"How many people live here?" I asked.
"I'm Myra, this is Pietro." She said.
"Raina, Vienna's sister where is your guy's lab?"
"That way." She pointed in the direction.
"Thanks," I said before running off. "Joshua," I said. He looked shocked to see me.
"What are you doing down here?" Joshua said.
"I wanted to see you, Josh."
"Don't call me that, I'm not like Vienna I'll never forgive you for what you did. I don't want to see you."
"Joshua."
"You're not my sister, You're a monster." He said. I turned away from him.
"Don't worry, I'll be gone after this is over." I said before walking away.
"He may never forgive you," Wade said.
"I know," I said.
(Valerie)
I was about to light up a cigarette when I noticed Warren was talking on the phone looking worried.
"Just stay inside mom." He said. I took the phone from him.
"We're on our way Kathryn," I said.
"Thank you, sweetheart." She said.
"Stay in until we get there and arm yourself with a knife."
"Alright, I'll go do that now."
"That's my girl," I said before she hung up. "Let me get my coat," I said.
"Valerie, won't they need you here?"
"You need me more," I said before walking inside. I got my black coat on and the tan scarf I stole from Warren.
"Let's go," I said. We got into Warren's car seeing as the aliens had control of the air right now. I lit a cigarette as we drove.
"You seem on edge," Warren said.
"I have a bad feeling that's all."
"Don't worry we'll be fine."
"I wish I could believe that." I said. We saw the airship over Warren's neighborhood. "Get your mom, I got this," I said getting out of the car.
"Be carful," Warren said before continuing on to his house. I focused on the ship. It started descending from the sky. I controlled it so it landed in open space. Then the doors opened.
"Of course there's that many." I said. They ran towards me. Fire blew past me cutting off their path.
"Need some help sweetheart?" I turned to see a guy with blonde hair. He had on goggles. He had an accent if I had to guess it was Australian.
"Try and keep up," I said. I messed with a group of them with my powers. They fell in pain.
"A telepath." He said before blasting more with fire. He pulled me towards him at a blast from their guns went past where I was. "Name's Pyro." He said.
"Valerie," I said before taking down the rest with my mind.
"You're strong."
"Not bad yourself. You're with Magneto right?" I asked.
"Yeah, you an X-men?"
"Yes, why are you saving humans if you're with Magneto?"
"I'm not just taking these bastards down." He said. Just then Warren rolled up with his car.
"I'll see you later Pryo good luck," I said.
"Who was that?" Warren asked.
"Calm down Angel he helped me take down those aliens," I said.
(Raina)
I walked up to Elizabeth.
"Hey, thanks for helping with the ship."
"I didn't do it for you," I said.
"Still."
"Just take the compliment," Wade said behind me.
"Must you follow me everywhere!" I yelled.
"Of course he will he cares about you," Elizabeth said.
"I never said that," Wade stated.
"I know." She said.
"When this is over I'm leaving," I said.
"I don't blame you the kids here are weird."
