Frozen Hope, Dark Future


Author Notes:
I now know why people who are doing these kinda fic say they are hard.Coz they are and this is me just starting the thing.Oh well I was the one who wanted to do it so I'll have to carry on with it.I'm determined to give this a good shot.So bear with me while I get this started and keep in mind that I have 23 author character's to fit in plus some of the MARVEL ones at the start.You character's may not be in the fic directly at the start and some character's may feature more than others but I'll try to give each character their own moment as I introduce them...I guess.The first few chapters are gonna be before the freezing, ya know how it came about, why it came about and how the mutants got chosen.Enough of my babbling so here goes nothing.

For the disclaimer see previous chapter.

A Vision and a Hunch


She sat in a chair in the main room of her house in Caldacawt County. She stared out at nothing for she could not see.She used a white stick to get herself around.That stick was her eyes.She had a terrible feeling in the pit of her stomach that something bad...something evil was coming.That feeling you get which you can't ignore and if you do it knaws at you till you pay attention to it.Circumstances for mutants had been getting progressively worse in the past few months.People were now learning of their existence and they were scared.Frightened that the mutants, however harmless they were, were going to wreak havoc on the world and them.Granted there were some mutants in the world who wanted to do just that.....wreak havoc and it was them who were going to bring destruction upon the world.The dreaded armageddon.Those mutants who used their gifts to take advantage over 'normal' humans would just make the distrust between mutants and humans stronger and much harder to disolve.There were some groups out there,however, who were trying to show humans that mutants were harmless and could be lived with in peace.
Groups like the X-Men who were lead by Charles Xavier, but just how much Xavier could be trusted was an issue.She always felt that Xavier did much more than just mentor his students...much more.Some of the young people who lived at his Institute seemed a little.....robotic in their actions and maybe just a little too praising of him.She never would fully know or understand Xavier.There was a part of her that told her to stay away.A part of her that said he could and should not be trusted.Of course she was just going by what she had seen of him and heard from Mystique as well as some other people.
The Brotherhood of Mutants on the other hand had slightly different and perhaps more realistic views than Charles Xavier or his X-Men.The Brotherhood were lead by a mysterious man named Magnes or Mangneto as he was known to many.Magneto had the view and belief that humans and mutants would never be able to live together in peace.That a war was coming and that they should prepare.Of course Xavier dismissed this as being ridiculous and the 'normal' humans just needed to learn to understand mutants.
She wished that she could believe in Xavier's idealistic views as the outcome would naturally be better but her head told her that would never happen.Most likely the realist views of Magneto would come to pass.When the realist views did come true and they would,she hoped that mutants would be ready.
Another reason for her to doubt Xavier's true intentions was she had looked after a girl for Mystique for many years.The girl had been with the Brotherhood for a while but had suddenly switched to Xavier's side.This had been because she had found out that Mystique has been lying to her.It was true to say that Mystique had lied to the girl but for her to change her mind so suddenly seemed a little strange.Irene often wondered if Xavier had a role to play in Rogue switching sides but she couldn't be sure.
It was then that Irene was hit with a vision.Her body went into a precognitive stance as images flashed through her mind.What she saw terrified her and made her blood run cold.Images of bloodbaths in the street, mutants being killed for no reason, televised executions taking place, laws being passed.Laws that if you were a mutant gave you no human rights what so ever.With each new image her terror grew.It manifested itself and multiplied.When the vision she had got finally stopped she found herself sweating slightly with warm tears running down her face.She was panting from the force at which the vision had taken her and her head was pounding from the onslaught.
She had to tell someone about what she had seen.Her visions normally came true and she hoped to god that this one didn't but something told her otherwise.A voice at the back of her head told her that what she saw would happen and start to happen soon.If any trace of mutants was to remain in existence she had to act quickly.She knew of two people who could possibly save at least some mutants and give them another chance.Even though one of those two could not be fully trusted it was the mutant race's last hope.


To be continued......

Author Notes:So how was the first chapter.Did you like it was it good,bad.Tell me what you think so far in the review.No flames please.....give me constructive critasium instead cause that way I can try and fix what's wrong.The plan was to get the first chapter done sooner buuuuut New Year celebrations got in the way.
Um on Irene's power.I know she was a precognitive to some extent but I wasn't sure how her power worked so I used the way that Phoebe from Charmed precognitive power works....kind of did.Hope that's ok with you guys.
Well I think I'll hopefully update the fic weekly but that depends on how much school work I have.Well I need to plan out how the next chapter is gonna be.L8R
