The Fox's out of the Bag
*In the living room*
"So what do you do for a living?" asked. Jean
"Besides waitressing...... It would have to be a...... mechanic," Miaki replied.
"Wow! What kind of mechanics?" she asked.
"Any, actually," she laughed. "I can make any scrap metal into anything. I also invent things, but I keep them to myself, but I'm not selfish or anything, its just that I want o be quiet. I really don't like the public."
"That's amazing!" exclaimed Evan. "Man, if I could do that, then I could build my own skateboards or my own company."
"Can you repair cars, too?" asked Scott.
"Of course, but I don't do it for free though. I have to buy everything these days, except for the things I find in junkyards. The only place I can get anything for a very cheap price," she said.
Rogue then asked, "Where are you from anyway?"
"Kyoto, Japan."
Mr. McCoy walks in the room. "Hey, Miaki."
"Yes?"
"Would you mind if you get the groceries today?"
"Not at all."
She gets up and he hands her a list. Miaki grabs her keys and purse. She takes out her sunglasses and puts them on. "See you guys later," she says and walks out the door.
*Downtown*
Miaki has gone to the store and bought the food she needs and is heading for the bank. On the other side of the sidewalk, a girl in a cream dress and a large, yellow hat is looking around the city and then looking at a map. "Nani?" she sighs. "Eigo no chizu."
(Translates to- What? American maps.) And she walks off.
Back to Miaki. At the bank, there is a robbery and hostage situation going on. There are cops everywhere, and they have their guns pointing at the bank. Miaki is off in her own world, talking to herself in Japanese, and she completely ignores the cops and walks in the bank. The police tried to stop her, but couldn't. As Miaki walks inside a gun is pointed at her. "Excuse me," she said to the gunman.
The gunman was stunned as she was walking by, nit caring about the gun being pointed at her. "Wh-what d-do you think yo-you are doing?" a robber asked.
"I'm just making a deposit," she said while smiling.
"Aren't you afraid of us? The gun?!"
"Why should I be?" She walks to the counter.
"You can't just waltz in here, you know."
"Well, it is opening hour and I thought I could go in here and make a deposit." She signals the person who worked at the counter. The counter woman gets up. Miaki puts her arms on the counter. "Do have some rope?" she says in a whisper. The woman nods and leaves.
"You're just askin' to get shot, aren't ya?"
"Maybe or maybe not."
"Didn't ya see all the cops out there?"
"Actually........no. Now listen, all I'm here for is to make a stupid deposit. After that I'll leave and get out of your hair."
"You can't."
"Why not?"
"Cus' you're a hostage."
"Really?"
"Yep."
"I'm sorry, but other important things to do and you're not going to stop me." Miaki makes her deposit. The woman hands her the rope. "Thank you. Now its time to have some fun." (She has sunglasses on.)
Outside, the police start here strange noises inside. They didn't know what was going. Inside, Miaki was beating the crap out of the robbers. As soon as it was over Miaki walked outside. Guns were pointed at her, but she ignored them. The police rushed inside to find that the robbers were all tied up. Miaki walked to her motorcycle, put the groceries in a compartment, and drove away. The reporters wanted to talk to her, but she was far, far away to be caught. The same girl from earlier walked passed the scene. She said, "I'm lost" ( means it's in another language.)
*At the institute*
Miaki walked in the door. She walked to the kitchen and put the groceries on the counter. Kurt teleports in the kitchen and is hanging upside down on the chandelier. Miaki put the food on the counter and started to put them away. Kurt tried to grab an apple, but a wooden spoon slapped his hand.
"OW!!" he yelped. "That really hurt."
"I'm going to make dinner tonight and don't want anybody eating the food. Why not eat the other food?"
"So, I like fresh food. There's nothing wrong with that."
"You're right. There is nothing wrong. It's that, I'm gonna use all this food. I am going to make my specialty."
"And what is that?"
"That's a secret."
*In the living room*
The professor, Mr. McCoy, Logan, Jean, Scott, and Storm are watching the news. On the TV there is a woman walking away from the bank. Miaki walks in the room. "Hey, that's me," she said.
They looked at her. The news lady went on the air, "This is the woman who single handedly stopped the banker robbers. Witnesses say that all she wanted to do is make a deposit...."
"And I did make my deposit," Miaki said.
"....The police had tried to stop her, but ignored them as she was walking into the bank. The police are trying to track her down to ask her some questions, but with no luck."
The professor lucked at Miaki. "What?" she asked. "I didn't use any powers, plus they couldn't see my face. I had sunglasses on. There was no real damaged. All I wanted to do was make a stupid deposit and I got it done."
Miaki left the room. No one said a word. They knew she was correct.
*At the dinner table*
Everyone is seated. They looked at the food. It looked so delicious. Some of the kids started to drool. "So what is all this?" asked the professor.
"Let's see. Some cold noodles, rice, a little bit of sushi, some chicken, fruit, and veggies. The drinks are up to you," she said. "So tell me what you think."
Everyone took something from the platters. They took a bite. "Well, how do you like it?"
"Well, it's....very.......interesting," said a very unsure Scott.
"Really?"
They all nod. "Well, it's not as good as Kitsumi's cooking, but it will have to do."
"Who's Kitsumi?" asked Mr. McCoy.
"She's a very good friend of mine. Too bad she is at home in Japan. Professor."
"Yes," he said.
"Do know if there are there any colleges around here."
"There is, but it's an hour away. Why do you ask?"
"I would like to finish college. Haven't had any time to go look. Thank you."
"Your welcome."
They were all eating there somewhat good food, when Miaki suddenly got this something-is-going-to-happen look on her face. Wolverine, who was sitting next to her, looked at her funny. "What is it?" he asked.
"I think someone is watching us. But it could be my imagination." She still had that look on.
Somewhere outside a shadow was watching the X-men. The shadow was running toward the house. It picked up its flute and started playing. The noise was unbearable. All that screeching from one instrument. The windows shattered. Luckily Rogue managed to yell, "Get Down!", and everybody got down in time. Nobody got hurt. The shadow started to run away. The X-men followed, after they got their outfits on, they chased the shadow to the park. The shadow stopped in the opening between the trees. The full moon shined on her. She was wearing a black ninja type clothing. She had a magenta scarf that was tied around her waist. Her hair was sky blue. "It's about time," she scolded.
"Time for what?" asked Kitty.
"To die."
"Oh"
"Before you die, I should tell you my name. I am Zerfina."
"Well, you're not gonna kill. I'll stop you first," Evan said.
He skateboarded to her, got his spikes ready, and fired at her. She dodged them with ease. Evan then was heading straight for because he couldn't stop, but Zerfina jumped, put her hand on Spyke's shoulder, and pushed him off his board. "Evan!" yelled Storm.
Zerfina picked up her flute and started to play. The sound was making the X- men cover their ears. The sound was tremendous. And it hurt so much that fell to the ground, screaming in pain. "Make it stop!" yelled Kitty.
But Zerfina continued. Then a voice was soon to be heard. The voice was soft, but it was counteracting the evil song being played by the flute. Zerfina stopped, but the voice continued for a little bit. Then it stopped. The X-men were relived. But they were wondering where it came from. They looked around. Even Zerfina. On a random light post, a shadow figure was sitting on the top of it. It jumped down and started running towards Zerfina, but Zerfina moved to quickly for anyone to see. The shadow figure stopped, revealing that it was a she. With fox ears on her head, she was wearing a blue ribbon around her forehead, black pants with two big pockets (cargo pants), and a cream dress over it. Scott tried to ask her question, but she covered his mouth before he could finish. The fox closed her eyes and her ears kept twitching. The others could only be silent. Miaki looked at her funny. The kind that means what-are-you-doing look. The fox opened her eyes and yelled in Japanese, "Got you!"
She ran towards a tree, but about five feet away she took a sharp turn to the left. She jumped then slid like a baseball or soccer player (you decide). She managed to trip Zerfina, but the fox could not stop and started to stumble across the ground, and hit a pile of boxes. Zerfina was on the ground, but quickly got up and ran away from the scene, but she dropped her flute in the process. Wolverine picked up the flute. Evan tried to go and catch Zerfina, but Storm stopped him. Miaki rushed to where the fox had fallen. Some of the others soon followed. They removed the boxes that were on top of her. "Thank you," the fox said.
"Kitsumi....," in a sharp voice.
Kitsumi looked up at Miaki. She jumped up and hugged Miaki. "Senpai!" she yelled. "Konban wa!" (trans: Senpai= an upper classman or some one you look up to, who is older than you. Konban wa= good evening.)
"It's good to see you again." Kitsumi looked at her with confusion. "It's good to see you again."
"Indeed it is." she smiled at Miaki.
"Who's this?" asked Storm.
"She is one of my close friends."
*Back at the institute*
"When did you get here?" Miaki asked Kitsumi.
"Just today. Did you know that America is so confusing when you look at a map?"
"I know the feeling."
"Do you think I could stay here for a long time. Ojiisan (Grandfather) wants you to train me more because he can't any more. He ahs taught me all that he knows."
"I see. Well, you better ask the Professor Charles Xacavier if you can. But do it in English."
"Hai" (Yes) She smiles and nods and walks to the Professor.
"Ano-o, do...you...th-think....that...I could....stay...here?"
"Of course," the professor said to her.
Kitsumi hugs the professor and says, "Thank you."
She lets go of him. "Looks like we have a new member to our team.
To the next chapter.................
Done finally with this chapter. I've had a loss of words to this. Kept changing the story line. Pictures of the characters will be on the Sanjuso website, but not yet. Been to busy with writing insane fanfics, but a group picture of the new good characters will be up soon. I hope.
