Evolving Avalanche: Chapter III
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the idea. This is my version of an AU fic. In this fic the Brotherhood now contains Pyro, colossus, Sabertooth and Gambit. Magneto is back in charge and is as abusive as ever. This is a Lance centered fic, so if that isn't your bag, then I'm sorry.
Dedication: Too all those who reviewed.

The 'Hood house
"Wanda would you please come to the study with me?" Magneto asked. He wasn't wearing his armor. He was wearing a plain business suit.
"Why?" Wanda Maximoff asked. She hated her father with a passion and was weary when he was unusually kind.
"Just come to my study. Now." He ordered. Wanda reluctantly agreed. When she got there she saw Agitha sitting in a chair.
"What the hell is this?" Wanda snapped. She turned around to see Mystique lock the door behind her. Sabertooth stood in a corner.
"I'm sorry my child, but this need's to be done." Agitha said as she activated her powers, removing Wanda's powers from her. Leaving her helpless, and vulnerable to Mystique. She turned to see Mystique's hand come crashing into her face.
_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
"Lance?" Pietro asked as he entered his teammates room. The room looked like a war-zone. There were holes in the wall, obviously created by human fists, and the mirror was broken. "Lance? Are you here, man?"
"What do you want Pietro?" Lance asked as he emerged from his bathroom, looking like hell.
"Are you ok man?" Pietro asked as he walked over to Lance and helped him to his bed.
"No. My head is killing me and it feels like I'm going to throw up." Lance said as he held his head. "What is it you want?"
"Believe it or not, I… want to apologize for messing with you before. I know you and the X-Freak have had it tough, and I shouldn't have fucked with you about it." Pietro said as he stared at the floor.
"Kitty." Lance said quietly.
"What?"
"Her name is Kitty. Not X-Freak, not X-Geek, not Valley Girl, or Airhead. It's Kitty." Lance said simply.
"Sorry."
"Both apology accepted. And I'm kind of sorry I clocked you."
"Hey, I had it coming." Pietro said with a cocky grin. "And what do you mean "Kind of."
"Still friends?"
"The best." Pietro said as he slapped Lance's hand and gave him a hug.
"Pietro, if you ever hug me again I swear to all that is holy, I will end you." Lance said with a smirk.
"Gotta catch me first…" Pietro began before a scream tore through the Brotherhood house. "That's Wanda!" Pietro shouted as he tore out of the room, with Lance hot on his heals.
"It's coming from Magneto's study." Lance shouted as they ran down the hallway.
"The door's locked." Pietro said when they arrived. Another scream erupted from inside the study. "WANDA!!!"
"About to be unlocked." Lance said as he pushed Pietro out of the way and focused. Seismic energy pulsed out of his hand, causing the air to ripple. He focused and the energy blew the door off of its hinges. Pietro immediately ran inside, Lance close behind. "What the Fuck are you doing?!?" Lance screamed as he saw Wanda lying on the floor, blood dripping from a cut of her forehead. Pietro immediately ran to her side put her head in his lap.
"Avalanche and Quicksilver, leave this instant." Magneto order. Mystique merely smiled.
"Hell no." Lance said as he put himself between Mystique and Pietro. Wanda was whimpering slightly from the beating she took.
"Leave now." Magneto ordered.
"How about this. You ever touch one of my teammates again, I'll take you out." Lance said, his eyes turning dead white. They didn't roll into the back of his head, this time they just turned dead white. Magneto backed away slightly.
"You stand up for your subordinates, even when they attack you earlier." Magneto said. "That show's your weakness."
"It show's my strength Magneto. My team is my back up. And more importantly, my friends. Touch them again, and you'll know why I took the name 'Avalanche'." Lance said as he walked away, behind Pietro and Wanda.
"He's passed the second test." Mystique said after they had left. "He's ready fro the next step in the process."
"Give him a few day's." Sabertooth said. "The kid needs to rest mentally and physically. According to what Raven told us, things with the Pryde girl have drained the kid emotionally and physically. "
"I agree with you this time Sabertooth." Magneto said as he sat down. "From what Mystique told us, we should give the boy a chance to rest. Mystique, there is a dance at the school this Friday, is there not?"
"Yes." Mystique said quietly. "Why?"
"Then we will allow him until after the dance to rest." Magnus said as he motioned for her to leave.
"I don't think so Magnus. The boy will continue his 'treatments' as scheduled." Mystique thought to herself as she walked away and entered her room.
_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
"You do realize that Raven will continue the treatments? Sabertooth said as he paced back and forth.
"And that is exactly what I am counting on, old friend."
"Care to let the feral man in on what you're up to?"
"Of course Victor." Magneto said as he stood up. "If young Avalanche does indeed lose it, we can pin everything on Mystique, saying we tried to give him a break but she wouldn't let it happen." Magneto said with a twisted smile.
"So it doesn't bother you that the kid my lose everything and cost us big time?"
"I believe Darwin said it best, "Survival of the fittest." Let the X-Men's and Brotherhood's strongest survive and the weak die with the humans."
"You're a twisted son of a bitch, you know that don't you?"
"Yes Victor. I am."
