Chapter IX: Terrible Providence

Bayville High:

Lance walked throught the halls , aimlessly , as something troubled his mind , a feeling of impending trouble.

"Lance! Wait!"-Kitty screamed as she rushed towards him.

"What happens?"Lance asked.

"Are you leaving?"-Kitty asked him , looking into his eyes.

"Yeah , i dont fell good , so i will head back to the institute"-Lance answered.

"Okay , take care!"-Kitty said as she hugged him , and rushed back to her class.

Lance just keeped walking , untill he reched his jeep , and drove away , in direction of the institute.

Later....

Everyone at the institute was enjoying themselfs , Todd and Jubilee were playing cards with Kurt and Tabby , while the rest of the New mutants were playing bord games with Pietro Fred , and Rogue.

Scott , Jean , and Evan were watching TV , while Kitty wrote in his laptop.

At the lab.....

A computer started to flicker , and started to start up , as Cerebro started up......

Logan , Hank , Ororo and Xavier just stared at the words that Cerebro`s screen showed....

"FATAL CORRUPTION ERROR -CHAMBER X OPENING"

"Holy shit!"-Logan exclaimed.

"Hank! Start the alarm , i want everyone out of the building , now!"-Xavier exclaimed.

"Everythings jammed , the institute is going into Defcon 5!"-Hank screamed as all the doors in the institute started to seal shut.

"He is escaping , its not possible!"-Ororo exclaimed.

"We have no chance Chuck , not without Magnus!"-Logan exclaimed.

Xavier used his telephaty to reach everyone in the institute.....

"This is Proffesor X , i want everyone into Cerebro`s room , now!"-The voice reached every young mutant in the building.

"We both know they wont stand a chance against him , Chuck"-Logan said.

"I know , but maybe i can protect them from him there"-Xavier responded.

Meanwhile.....

The adamantium laced doors were liquified and dissapeared , as huge orange glow got brighter.......

"Father , im coming"-a though was echoed throught a young mind .

Cerebro Room......

"What the hell is going on?"-Cyclops screamed as everyone entered , only to find all the adults in their battle uniforms , and Xavier wearing the cerebro helmet.

"Scott , listen to me , i want all of you to stay in Cerebro`s lower level , dont exit it , by any reason , understood!"-Xavier yelled , as the teens founded themselfs lifted by Storm`s winds , and carried to the bottom of the room.

"Scott , where`s Lance?"-Kitty screamed.

"I cant sense him , he isnt anywhere , and...aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrgggggghhhhhh!"- Jean screamed as she hitted the floor , and started to shake like she had an epileptia attack.

"JEAN!"-Scott screamed.

"He`s coming , he`s coming!"-Jean muttered , as she passed out.

In that moment , the doors of Cerebro were blown apart , landing at the feet of the young mutants.

"He is too powerfull , Scott , they dont stand a chance..."-Jean said as she slowly awakened.

"Who is too powerfull.....oh my god..."-Scott said as his voice died , as everyone saw what entered the place.

It seemd to be an humanoid form made of pure energy , glowing with orange bright , and green , sparkling eyes, but the worse was the figure inside the form.

It was a little boy , almost looked like twelve , but his expression was cold , and his eyes showed no emotion.

"Father....."-The figure spoke.

Somewhere inside the institute......

Lance staggered throught the halls , wearing his uniform , bleeding from his head and eyes , his whole body in pain...

"Cerebro...."-He thought as he kept walking...

In Cerebro.....

Jubille holded into Todd , while Rogue hugged Pietro , shaking , while Fred put himself in front of the New Mutants.....

They heard the first scream , as hank hitted the ground next to them , his body emmiting a trail of smoke , the scent of burned fur and flesh echoing the place.

"Is he...?"-Jamie tried to ask , as Jean used her powers to bring him inside the circler.

"No , he is unconsious , but barely"-Scott said , in a whisper of a voice.

Then the hearded the second scream....

Storm hitted the ground , her body emiting little bolts of lighting , as Storm coughed blood.

"Auntie o!"-Evan screamed as Jean lifted her from the ground.

"Still breathing..."-Pietro said as he checked her pulse , when the impossible happened.....

The floor lifted it self , and the teens founded themselfs in front of the Cerebro console , as cerebro`s deep was eliminated....

The sight infront of them was the most horrible thing anyone of them had ever seen....

Logan was slashing wildly at the glowing Figure , wich molded it self into differents shapes to evade him , but Logan was able to sunk his claws right into the boy in the middle of the energy field.

The boy didnt even scream , as he gived an evil smile at Logan , before a huge energy blast came from its chest.

Logan didnt have time to scream , and hitted the ground infront of the teens , who could see lLogan`s burned body , and even his metal bones could be seen , as his healing factor started to try to repair the damage.

"Kevin!"-Xavier screamed at the figure.

"Yes , father?"-An inhuman voice , wich lacked both tone or deep answered.

"This is enough! I demand that you stop this senseless slaughter now!"- Xavier screamed as the figure got closer to him.

"What`s the matter , father? Afarid you new sons see the truth?"-Proteus answered.

"What is he talking about , Proffesor?"-Scott yelled.

"Scott! , Stay there!"-Xavier screamed back.

"You think that pathetic mental barrier you are making will stop me from reaching them? Watch this , you pathetic cripple!"-Proteus said , as he waved a hand , making the whole Cerebro console dissapear , and throwing Xavier against them.

"I`ve learned a lot during these two years , father , but before i destroy your sons , maybe they should see why they are going to die!"-Proteus screamed , as his eyes glowed , and a huge flash was emitted from his body....

The X-men and the Brotherhood finded themselfs in a huge room , completely made of metal.

Logan and Ororo were watching how Charles typed in a computer , and a huge metal sphere was lowered into a glowing field inside a chamber , by a figure in red armor.....Magneto.

A voice echoed throught everyone`s heads.

"I tried to kill him , but you choosed your enemy before your own son! You weakened me , and confined me to be trapped in that prison , untill my energy collapsed , and my conscience died."

"I was trapped inside that void for months , years , waiting for the chance to free myself , and get my revengue on this world , for taking away everything from me!"-Proteus voice got interrupted by Xavier`s.

"You know why we confined you , dont you Kevin? Or do have you forgot?"- Xavier screamed as the scene changed.......

The young mutants founded themselfs in what seemed to be the ruins of a big town , with Proteus standing in the middle of it , inmovible , when lighting and metal hitted them , as Storm and Magneto appeared from the sky , and Logan and Xavier emerged from the darkness.

"Ten thousand people. Ten thousands possible futures , all dead because of you!

Because you just didnt care , because you wanted revenge!"-Xavier`s voice echoed , as the scene showed Proteus being trapped inside the metal sphere Magneto put together around him , screaming as he returned to his child persona.

Then , the young teens heared the most terrible scream in their lifes.....

"THEY DESERVED IT!"-Proteus screamed , in a voice that showed no sign off compassion , or any mercy.

"They chased me , they refused to give me any respect or mercy , they called me a monster as they tried to butcher me , and some of the hypocrities dared to claim for their lifes as i destroyed them!"-Proteus screamed...as the scene showed hoe Proteus powers manifested themselfs , how he killed the whole town , using his reality altering powers , making no distinction between man , woman or child.

There was a second flash , and the X-men founded themselfs back into Cerebro , infront of Proteus.

The New mutants were crying in fear , hiding between Fred , who was shaking , but didnt moved from his position.

"You all know you have no chance , so im offering a quick painless death , if you dont fight"-Proteus said , as Jean hugged Xavier , who was unconcious.

Scott looked at his teammates , and saw the look of aproval on their faces....and fired a huge optic blast at Proteus.

Ray , Amara , Jubilee and Alex fired their powers too , in a balst of diverse enrrgies , when their blast dissapeared in midair.

Proteus stood there , and made a wave with his hands , throwing everyone aginst the walls , and made the wall wrap them in metal.

Kitty used her powers to phase , and fell to the ground.

Proteus extended his hand , his eyes started to glow stronger , and all the teens let a a scream as theysaw Kitty starting to slowly vanish , as Proteus used her own powers gains her.

"Why , are you doing this?"-Kitty whimpered , crying as she feeled how she started to fade away.

"Because i can"-Proteus answered , when a huge spike of metal formed from the ground , and cut off Proteus arm right off , as Proteus screamed in pain , while Kitty returned to normal.

Everyone looked at the doorway in awe and fear , as Proteus turned around , and saw Lance standing there , his eyes , ears and mouth bleeding slowly.

"Lance?"-Kitty asked , crying as she saw the look of Lance`s face.

Lance let a scream , as his eyes became white , and the blood started to flow quickier through his eyes and mouth.

The whole room trembled , and the walls turned into liquid metal , freeing the young mutants.

Proteus just stood there , looking at Lance , and the huge metal formations that started to form around him as he screamed.....

"Come and get me , you bastard!"-Lance said as he looked right at Proteus.....

To be concluded....
