Disclaimer: I'm a poor teenager with 1$ allowance a week. Please don't sue me unless you want all my stories and poems cause that is all I have.
A/N: I know Alex isn't in the brotherhood but in this story he is. And the cauldron never happened.
"Ouch!….What the! AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!" Selen had felt a soft bounce on her stomach. Then a harder bounce but still she did not want to wake up. It had been 5 days going to school avoiding the x-geeks and putting up With Pietro , who had some how gotten a hold of some caffeine pills.
Sitting on her stomach was a mouse the size of a cat. "Get it off me! Off, Off! Pietro , Alex, Lance! Help me!!" Selen screeched . The mouse snapped at her and she screamed. The mouse kept snapping at her even as the boys ran in to the room . Then finally when the mouse bit her, her instincts kicked in. She growled and pounced at the thing. "Selen no!" Lance said and made a grab for her but Selen was to quick. She snatched it up and took a big bite out of it. "Oh man… that's just wrong! Good bye Mr. Ratface. There goes a good pet!" Todd whined as Selen continued to devourer the mouse.
"What do you mean "pet"…?" Alex said as her looked at him questioningly. "I bought him last night for a pet thinking Selen might like it cause the guy in that weirdo shop said it was a mouse from Atlantis!" Todd yelled and Stomped out of the room yelling "And beast woman had to eat her gift! Yo I'm just so appreciated!"
The rest of the brotherhood watched As Selen ate the poor creature. When she was finally done she looked up dazed with blood smeared on her face. "Oops." was all she said. Lance shook his head and motioned for Pietro to grab her and bring her to the bathroom to clean her up.
"Did you take your pills last night?" Pietro asked with disgusted look as Selen washed her face with Noxzema face wash. "I forgot to because Freddy got me mad . He ate my dinner and I went to bed early." Selen said looking for a towel with her eyes closed. "Well don't forget to take it before you go to school. As much as I would like to see you eat Evan, I don't think that Mystique will love the idea." Pietro said and grabbed a towel for Selen. She giggled at the thought of what Mystique would say if she really did it. "Thanks…" She said . Just as she was walking out the door she slipped on some water she had splashed on the floor. " Ha Ha Ha!! What a loser!!!" Pietro laughed at her. Selen scrambled to her feet and Pietro darted out the bathroom down the hall with Selen on his tail.
"Hey you two quit runnin around da house! Ya gonna break something! Somethin like ME!!" Todd yelled as Selen flew by knocking over a vase from Egypt. When Selen didn't take her pills she was as fast as Pietro maybe a little slower but still Fast. Pietro jumped over the couch and Stood on the coffee table. Selen jumped at him knocking him over on to the ground. " Stop , Stop I'm sorry …ha ha Aahhh Please!" Pietro panted as Selen started to tickle him. Selen stopped and got of the ground smirking at him and left. Pietro let out a sigh and then a voice said startling him said "You've got it bad eh?" Pietro's head jerked up and saw Lance standing over him. Pietro rolled his eyes and simply said "No I don't have it bad." "You do to. She might be leaving soon too you know." Pietro's head jerked up. "Why!" Selen was leaving? How could she leave? She had no other family. "The x-geeks want to take her back to Atlantis. The good professor thinks that if she was able to escape from Atlantis then it must be out there some where. He wants to leave her there cause he thinks that her powers will soon grown out of control or she will evolve in to something different." Lance told him. Pietro jumped up and stormed through the house.
"SELEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Pietro shouted over her radio. "Selen!!!!!!!! Where are you?!!!" He shouted over Adema's song , Giving in. "What?" Selen shouted from her room annoyed. "I'm kinda trying to get dressed!!!" Pietro bounced up the stairs. "if the Good Professor asks you to go on a Journey back to Atlantis you can't go unless The rest of the Brother hood is with you." He said in a rush. Selen just looked at him like he was queer and slammed the door in his face. "What the hell was that for?" he yelled over the radio again. He never got an answer on the account that the grandfather clock down stairs chimed , telling him that he had 5 minutes to get ready.
At the begining of school Selen saw the guy that was with her on Atlantis named Quinn. "Lance! That's him! That's Quinn!" Selen said pulling on His sleeve. Lance pried her off of his arm and pushed her forward. "Well go talk to him. Maybe he'll have some answers." Selen sighed and walked over to the man. Selen tapped him on the shoulder and took a deep breath. "Is your named Quinn by chance?" The man nodded his head, his hair falling in his eyes. Quinn did not have blond hair as Selen thought. His hair was a white as snow with a bluish tint to it.
Selen smiled. Memories she thought to have lost were coming back quickly as though she had never lost them. "Quinn, I'm not sure you remember me but my name is Selenica." Quinn's face broke into a smile and he picked her up and swung her around. "Oh my God it's really you! Look at what a lady you've grown into!" Quinn had a Irish accent Selen looked behind her to look for the rest of the brotherhood but found that they had already went inside the school.
Selen skipped school and spent the day with Quinn. They went out for lunch , went to the park and went to the museum and looked at the section where they talked about the legend of Atlantis. They laughed about the silly tales of their home people had made up. And all the while they found out what had happened when they were separated and where they went. Selen had been sent to an English orphanage in Liverpool England. And from there she had been bopped around England And then on to Scotland and stayed in Scotland for a while. That was where she had acquired her Scottish accent. Quinn had Found a nice family in Ireland and stayed with them until he went off to college in America.
Back in Atlantis Quinn had been with her family since she had been born. He was supposed to marry her when she turned 15, which was the marriage age. But since the horrible event had happened she never go to marry him. She had also found that The royal family and everyone that was close or worked with the royal family were frozen but still kept alive. The building had sunk but water never had gotten in it. Then years later something had happened to make the chambers which they were frozen in to open. All Selen could remember from then was that there was no water anywhere. The freezing process had enabled them not to age also. Selen was over two thousand years of age and still looked as if she was 14.
Later that night Selen sat on the couch watching the teletubies. She clutched a stuffed frog doll. "Oh the horror!!!!!!!" Screamed Selen. She heard Pietro laughing at her from his bed room. "Hey why don't you come down here and watch this! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhh" Selen jumped behind the couch and stayed there until the show was over. Pietro came down the stairs and plopped down next to her on the couch. Selen swung her legs over his lap and laid back on the couch. "So how was skipping school?" Pietro asked while staring up at the ceiling. Pietro had asked this question a million times already and her still got the same answer.
"Dude I know you bloody don't like Quinn. So get over it that I was supposed to marry him. I not going to and I hate you! You drive me mad and don't look at me like that!" Pietro looked hurt. He didn't say anything just got up and walked away. He stared at the floor not daring to look up.
"Pietro, wait! I'm sorry….. I didn't mean that!" Selen rushed up behind him and grabbed his shoulder Trying to make him look at her. Pietro spun on her angrily. "You meant it and you know it. It's what everyone else says! So don't say sorry!" His eyes were no longer their icy blue color that she used to love. They burned red with anger and hate. Never had she seen him this angry in all the time that she knew him.
Pietro raised his arm as if to hit her but then a feeling of despair came over him as he saw what horror Selen's eyes held. Pietro dropped his arm and backed up. "No….." Pietro whispered. He was now backed up against the wall. His face screwed up in pain. "No…" This time a little louder. "Pietro? Are you all right?" Selen asked. One minute she was thinking Pietro was going to hit her then next Pietro was backed up against the wall looking as though he was about to break. "Pietro?" Selen asked again.
Pietro squeezed his eyes shut letting the tears well up and slide down his cheeks. "Why?" His voice came out strangled. A memory floated in his head. No matter how hard he tried he couldn't get it out of his head. It kept playing over and over in his head.

"You brat! Look at what you've done!" SLAP!!!!! 12 year old Pietro lay on the ground. His face stinging from the blow he had just received from his foster mother. "You're gonna pay for that! You don't spill milk in my house." She growled in his face. Pietro sobbed and she grabbed him by the hair and slammed his head on the ground. Pietro sobbed harder he'd only been with this family for a month. Tomorrow he'd run away. He wouldn't stand for this any longer.
************
Pietro looked up in to the eyes of Selen. Her eyes held concern and worry for him. He let him self slide to the floor. His legs felt as if they wouldn't hold his weight anymore. He watched as her eyes changed from concern and worry to fear. "Alex , Lance any one get her here now!" Selen screamed. "Please hurry!" Todd looked in around the corner that lead in to the kitchen. "What yo? I'm trying to study. Lance ain't here and Alex is somewhere in the house." "Something's wrong with Pietro ." Selen said and pointed at him. Pietro got up and pushed Selen out of the way. "There's nothing wrong with me. I'm just tired." He mumbled and walked away.
"What was that about! Something was wrong I swear." Todd shrugged his shoulders. "Hey I believe you. There's something wrong with him but only mystique knows what it is." Todd shrugged his shoulders again and went back into the kitchen to study.
