Here you go, chapter 11!!
I'm not sure how many more chapters there are gonna be…possibly 3 or 4…I
haven't even gotten to the fight scene =)
I thank all for they're enthusiastic comments…luv the ones about
Mystique…priceless=) I'm in the 50's
and extremely happy about that!!!
Sorry, I haven't been updating every day…I like to do that…but w/ school
and everything…some things just gotta come first, no matter how much you wanna
deny it LoL So, hope you enjoy, and, as always, R/R…my ego could always use
something to inflate it!!!
"Oh my God, Kurt!"
Kitty wailed when she was him standing side by side with Mystique.
The rest of the group just stared in disbelief. No one had seen this coming. The Professor tried to contact Kurt
telepathically, but could not reach him.
Mystique noticed his attempt and smirked.
"Now, now Charles.
You know that I couldn't have you planting thoughts in anything that
I've created," she glanced at Kurt, "Your not playing fair."
The Professor answered back hotly, "Mystique, leave the boy
out of this. He is young and innocent,
deal with me."
Mystique laughed, "I would, but you see, my dear Charles,
that he came of his own free will. I
did not force anything upon him."
Surprised, all in the cubical looked at Kurt.
"Kurt would never…he just wouldn't!!" Rogue cried to Mystique.
"Oh, but he did child," Mystique was clearly enjoying this
form of torture.
"Kurt?" Jean asked
meekly. Kurt did not answer. He did not seem to be paying attention to
the conversation. His eyes lacked the
brightness she had seen in them only days before.
"You see, the process of recombining your DNA into a super
mutant is nearly complete. Soon you will
see what your contributions have created."
Mystique started into further detail, but was interrupted by Kurt's
coughing fit. She ordered him to his
room, and said she would be with him shortly.
Kurt walked out of the room without glancing back.
Mystique soon finished gloating about her superior mutants,
then left, following Kurt's path. The
X-Men began to realize what had just happened.
"Oh God, Kurt, he isn't…he can't be…one of them," Rogue voice was trembling.
"Rogue's right, right Professor? I mean, Kurt is just doing this to try to get us outta here,
right?" Scott tried to convince himself
that Kurt was only doing this to help the team.
"I don't know Scott," Charles ran what had happened over in
his head, but the thing that stuck out the most was the look in Kurt's
eyes. They were empty, reflected no
emotions. Almost…dead.
"What happens now?"
Kitty asked from her place in the corner, where she was currently
sitting and hugging her knees to her chest.
"We wait," Storm answered bluntly.
Kurt looked around at his new room. Mystique had insisted that he remain in the
warehouse until the genetics project was complete. She had a room down the hall.
Kurt's room was Spartan like, lacking much of the comforts he had grown
accustomed to during his time at the Institute. All he had was a small cot, a dresser with 4 drawers a mirror and
a lamp on top of the dresser. Mystique
assured him that his permanent room would be much more lavish, but Kurt didn't
really care.
As he stood there staring at his new suit, a black body
suit, similar to his old uniform, but it had a large green diamond like shape
on the back and front,(A/N There's the description of the suit…not very
creative, I know, but how much variation can you have in a uniform body suit
for his type of work? LoL that's for you Casey!! =) ) he began to think. He had lost all feeling for everything. He just stopped caring. There were still some lingering emotions
towards the X-Men though. He felt that
he owed them something. He owed it to
them to get their freedom. He felt no
allegiance to the Brotherhood, so he decided he would free them. He didn't care what happened to him.
The only problem was how.
He was still far too weak to hold any hope of winning a battle against
the genetically superior mutant, so how to do it? Kurt was pondering his dilemma when Mystique entered his
room.
She spoke briskly, "Move!
We've got business to take care of."
Kurt reluctantly followed, still deciding what actions he
would take, when he found himself in a room filled with artificial womb, caring
for the genetically engineered mutants until they reached adulthood. The scene disgusted him.
Mystique stopped in front of a large cylinder, in which a
mutant was almost fully developed. It
looked disturbingly like Scott, but was female and of darker skin.
"Here," Mystique pointed to the mutant, "Is the first of the
mutants, born of the X-Men genes, to be born.
You are to sit here and wait until it begins to stir. Once it does, immediately summon me." With those instructions, she left and Kurt
began to consider his problem of freeing the X-Men.
He stared at the mutant, growing rapidly, so near to him,
and realized that he must hurry. Its arm
just twitched.
****What ya guys think?
Big fight is coming soon…=) Hope
you enjoyed the chapter and I want to hear all your thoughts
