Family Unknown
Chapter 2
"X-8?!" Zack yelled. "What the hell is that?!"
The blond haired man, who had just spoken replied with. "We were created after you, Zack by Madame
X." "So in a sense, we're your brother's and sister's, 'cept we weren't created by Lydecker, and he never
dealt with us." "We were created like you, to be the ultimate soldier. It explains why we have powers to
transport, to perform telepathy as well as being psychic." "Anyways, I'm Brian, and this here is Liz, Nick,
Scott, and Heather." He said gesturing to the people clustered around him. Heather then stepped forward.
"I'm sorry, Zack, about the alarm, I didn't mean to, I thought one of my brothers had already disarmed it."
"You're sorry, YOU'RE SORRY??!!" Zack roared. "If it wasn't for you we wouldn't be in this mess!!"
Heather immediately began to cry. "I'm sorry Zack!!!"
"HEY!" Brian yelled. "Nobody, NOBODY, yells at my sister like that." "You should have told us you
were in the area Zack, it's your fault not Heather's that we're in this mess!!!"
"Nobody blames me for something THEY DID!!" Zack shouted. "I didn't know that you guys existed!!"
Zack shifted his glare across the three that stood behind Brian, before resting his eyes on Heather, who was
blubbering away. For a moment, his expression softened, but then hardened underneath a mask of ice.
Suddenly Zack grabbed Brian by the throat ramming him into the wall. Brian retaliated throwing Zack off
of him and into the door, making it crash to the ground. Zack got up and nailed him one in the jaw. Brian
being quick and light on his feet grabbed Zack by the back of his shirt and threw him on the floor.
Breaking some of Logan expensive wine glasses by the impact. Max intervened and shoved each guy to
either side of the of the room.
"Stop it!" She shouted.
Nick the tall blond stepped up containing Brian from doing anymore damage. Zack spat on the floor while
Brian gave him the 'finger' and Logan watched on.
"I can't believe you guys broke my expensive wine wear, and my door you better pay for it!" Logan
exclaimed. "and clean your spit off the floor!"
"Shut up Logan!" Zack shouted enraged.
Heather looked up with blurred vision from the tears that had formed. She had failed her brothers and
sister, and almost cost them their lives. Seeing this Brian quickly walked over bringing her into his arms
to reassure her that it was okay. Brian broke away and Heather gave a nod indicating that she understood.
Zack sent a apologetic glance Heather's direction which she accepted with a smile. Max looked on
shocked that her big brother would ever apologize to anyone.
While looking at Logan disguised Zack muttered. "Lets not disturb the happy couple."
"So where do y'all think we could stay?" Brian asked.
Zack as a peace offering, offered a room in his apartment. Brian reluctantly accepted and the group of five
transported to Zack's apartment.
