(Elisa's P.O.V.)
We were at the bottom of the Avengers Tower. I just couldn't believe this. I and the clan were meeting the X-Men! We had just finished telling them about how Jean met us, and also why she kept it a secret, and they all understood fairly and happily.
"I can see why Jean kept it a secret. I knew that she was sneaking out of the school when she was little, but I didn't know that it was to see you, Light.", Charles said with a patient and pensive smile.
"Jean saw me as a mother, and she was protective of me.", Light said with a wide smile. "I still can't believe we are now friends with Gargoyles!", Quicksilver said excitedly, bouncing on the balls of his feet.
"He is so cute!" Rogue said as she was petting Bronx. Bronx then went over to Hank, nuzzling Hank by the knee. "I think he likes me.", Hank said with a chuckle.
"I know! It's freaking amazing!", Bobby said with a laugh. "And I still feel sad after hearing your story.", Kitty said with a soft hum and a slight frown.
"You just wanted the humans to accept you, but they were all afraid of you.", Rogue said with a awed look of shock. "Just like how they are afraid of us Mutants.", Raven said with a huff as she nodded lightly.
"That's something we have in common, lass.", Hudson nodded in agreement. "Yeah, you were the protectors of the castle, and yet the one human you trusted betrayed you all.", Logan grumbled loudly with a low growl.
"And it was due to your twin sister having allied with the captain.", Storm said, shaking her head in disbelief. "Yes, my sister is now a heartless Gargoyle.", Light said, giving out a deep sigh of regret.
"I still can't get over the fact that you all can die if you get smashed to pieces while you are in your stone sleep.", Hank said with a still-surprised look on his face. "Sadly, that's true.", Brooklyn said with a light nod.
"That is simply worse than being hunted all over the country.", Logan growled lowly. "Or having been labeled as a freak.", Hank added with a sigh.
"Yet you kept them safe despite their differences.", Charles spoke thoughtfully. "Which is why Jean had them live here. You see, she and Elisa knew that Xanatos would have more chances of hurting them.", Tony said with a sneer.
"It was the right choice.", Charles said with a approving nod. "So you accept us the way we are?", Broadway asked a bit nervously.
"Of course you are our friends now.", Charles said, giving the clan a warm and friendly smile. "Thank you.", Hudson said with a grateful nod.
"We all are alike in many ways.", Logan said with a rough chuckle. "Logan's right.", Scott said with a nod and a grin.
"Also, where is Jean?", Nightcrawler asked with a curious look. "She is at the top of the tower with Goliath.", Natasha said with a smug smile.
"Goliath, he's the leader of your clan?", Raven asked curiously. I was about to answer when we heard what sounded like Jean screaming.
"What was that?", Bruce asked, looking worried. "It sounds like Jean is in trouble!", Light shouted in fear and worry.
(Jean's P.O.V.)
I and Goliath continued to talk, and we then went inside the main room. "Well, isn't this cute?", a voice spoke clearly, and I then saw Erik standing in the middle of the room with a smirk. I felt Goliath hold me in his arms, and I could see Erik getting a jealous look on his face.
"Who are you?", Goliath asked with a wary growl. "My name is Erik Lehnsherr, through you may know me as Magento. Now, I must ask you to let go of Jean.", Erik said with a glare at Goliath.
"So you're Erik? The mutant who has been trying to force Jean to be your girlfriend.", Goliath said with a snarl. "I don't want her to by my girlfriend...I want her to be my wife.", Erik said with a sick smile.
"You are fucking sick, Erik!", I shouted angrily, growing frustrated and pissed off with the bastard. "Like a thousand times before, I must ask of you to join me, Jean.", Erik purred lowly.
"Well, I have to say no like how I said it a thousands times before.", I said with a growl. "I don't take no for an answer. Jean, come here.", Erik demanded furiously.
"Jean is not going with you, mutant. She is not a prize, she's a human being!", Goliath snarled, and I blushed lightly, amazed at Goliath's protectiveness over me, standing up for me.
"It's your fault you are stealing Jean away from me!", Erik shouted as he used his powers to lift some knives, but I quickly disintegrated them.
"I won't let you hurt Goliath!", I shouted with fury and determination. "You must come with me now, or the Gargoyle dies!", Erik snarled lowly.
"You can't force Jean to love you. She has to choose herself.", Goliath said with a growl. I slightly smiled, knowing Goliath lets me be who I am, not like Erik. "Very well then. It's time to crash the party.", Erik growled lowly.
Then the windows broke as a few of Erik's mutants goons came inside. "Get him and bring Jean to me.", Erik said with a sneer. They charged at us, and Goliath started to fight them off while I used my powers to either blast them away or put them to sleep.
"Jean, watch out!", Goliath shouted in warning, and I turned around to see a mutant boy charging at me, but then he was tackled by Bronx. "Thank you, Bronx!", I called out in relief.
I then saw my teammates and the X-Men start to fight Erik's mutants. I saw Hank in his beast form, and Logan taking the mutants down with his claws, and Bobby froze a few of them. I then saw Goliath get shoved out the window, and I gasped in horror as I started running over to him, only to feel something wrap around my waist. I saw it was some sort of metal rail.
"Now, I can't have you running off.", Erik said with a wicked chuckle as he brought me closer to him, and I tried to used my powers, but I couldn't as my arms were trapped. Erik then grabbed me, and he placed something on my neck. To my horror, it was that device that can disable a mutant's powers!
"Let me go!", I shouted angrily as I struggled. "I don't think so, Jean. You're coming with me.". Erik grinned smugly. He then started to walk away with me in his arms.
"Someone stop Erik!", Charles shouted quickly. Steve and Logan tried to run over to us, but Erik used his powers to sent them flying. I could see Light try to fly toward us, but Erik used his powers to make a piece of metal hit her in the head.
"No!", I shouted in horror and pain as my own foster mother was hurt by Erik! "Such pity. Let's go!", Erik smiled wickedly before he called out his order.
Erik and a few of his mutant goons went inside a jet, and I felt the jet start to lift off. I then saw out a window,Goliath. "NO!", Goliath roared so loudly as he glided up to the jet, and he tried to stop it, but then I saw him get electrocuted, and he fell off.
"GOLIATH!", I shouted as I saw him fall to the ground. "Just forget him. You're mine now, Jean.", Erik chuckled lowly. I just glared at him with a growl.
(Goliath's P.O.V.)
I can't believe I let Erik take Jean! I have to go rescue her! "Goliath, you can't go after them! You are injured.", Lexington said, pleading for me to stay.
"Lexington is right. You are in no condition to fight.", Nightcrawler said to me with a concerned nod. "I can't! I have to rescue Jean!", I snarled frantically as I plowed past Nightcrawler, but Logan stopped me.
"I know you want to go rescue your girl, but you have to rest!", Logan said with a growl at me. "Erik can easily beat you if you are injured.", Raven said with a nod as if she knew something.
"Listen to them, Goliath. You have to rest.", Steve said with a stern look at me, acting as the soldier he is. "But Jean.", I said softly as I looked out in the direction of the jet.
"We will go search for her all day, and you can join us once you and your clan wake up from your stone sleep.", Elisa said with a acknowledging nod. I growled in frustration as I knew I had no choice, but I was so worried about Jean. I really love her, but I still wasn't ready to confess my feelings to her yet.
I then saw that dawn was approaching, so I and the rest of my clan went over to stand on the edge of the tower. I then felt myself turn to stone, and the last thing on my mind was Jean.
(Elisa's P.O.V.)
"Whoa, you weren't kidding! They do turn to stone at dawn.", Hank said with a amazed look. "And they are very much vulnerable to any danger while they sleep.", Logan said with a deep growl.
"I can see why Jean is protective.", Raven said with a nod of understanding. "Indeed. She has a good heart for those she cares and loves.", Charles smiled softly before glancing at Goliath, and I knew he must have noticed the connection between Goliath and Jean. He obviously approves of it, I think.
"And I suppose in return, the Avengers protect them during the daytime, then?", Hank asked in curiosity. "We make sure no one tries to harm them.", Tony said with a determined smirk.
"Now, we have to go search for Jean.", Light said as she's still taking things easy after that hit to the head. "But how are we going to find her?", Rogue asked worriedly.
"I and Raven know Erik well.", Charles said with a inquisitive yet sly smile, and Raven chuckled lightly in agreement. Why did I have the feeling that this mission would go bad or good if we do choices?
(Jean's P.O.V.)
I then woke up, and I found myself in a room like cell. There was a bed, a tv, and even a bathroom, but I saw something else. I saw what looks like a female Gargoyle who had silver skin, and her hair is black.
She also has black scales all over her body, but her wings were beautiful wings. They looked like a mix of moth and butterfly, but they were still Gargoyle wings. She had a red, orange, yellow, and black pattern, and at the ends of her wings, there were blue like eyes.
And then I saw a Gargoyle beast which looked like a panther, and also they were both chained to the floor "Who are you?", I asked softly. "I don't have a name.", The female Gargoyle said with a frown.
"How come?", I asked in confusion. "I was created by some scientists, and then this mutant called Magneto kidnapped me, and I have been here since.", The female Gargoyle said with a sigh.
"Well, since you don't have a name, how about I give you one?", I said with a warm smile. "Really?", The female Gargoyle asked with surprise.
"Sure...how about Jasmine?", I asked with a grin. She somehow reminded me of the other Jasmine from 'Aladdin'. "I love it! Jasmine it is.", Jasmine giggled with a smile.
"Jasmine, if you were created, what can you do?", I asked in wonder. "I'm skilled at acrobatics, and I can heal a person.", Jasmine said softly.
"You can?", I asked in amazement and shock. "I'll show you.", Jasmine said with a little smile as she stretched out her wings, and they glowed a light blue aura, and so did her hands, and then she stopped.
"That's incredible.", I whispered in awe. "Thanks.", Jasmine said softly. "Jasmine, what about the Gargoyle beast?", I asked in curiosity.
"Her name is Sarabi, and she is a hybrid between a black panther and Gargoyle beast.", Jasmine explained with a shrug. "Where did Erik find her?", I asked with a slightly upset look.
"He said that he took her from some place called Wakanda. I can't remember much.", Jasmine said, frowning with a helpless shrug. "How long have you both been here?", I asked worriedly.
"For about 1 month.", Jasmine said with a sigh. "Don't worry, I have friends looking for me. When they come, we will get you and Sarabi out of this place.", I said with a growl, determined to get my newest friends out of this place.
"I have always wanted to see what the outside world looks like.", Jasmine said, looking hopefully excited. "Trust me, you will.", I said softly with a grin.
Then the door opened, and I saw Erik. "I apologize for putting you in this place, but I have no choice as I must have you as my wife.". Erik smiled lightly.
"How many times do I have to say no!?", I shouted with a snarl. "Why do you keep saying that, Jean?! Why can't you agree to be my wife?", Erik growled angrily.
