Magneto turned to face Rac, forcing her to leave her memories.
"Join us! Join your twin! You owe me. I gave you your gift. And I can take it away. I made you!"
"No."
"Then I will take it away. But with your refusal you sign your friends' death warrants. Join me, and they will live." Magneto turned away. For a moment Rac glanced back at her friends, compassion and worry showed in her eyes, for the briefest of seconds.
"Look at me!" she ordered. Magneto tuned automatically, meeting Rac's piercing glare. And in the fraction of a second before she spoke, she realized that she was seeing his memories, his plans, his fears, his hopes, his dreams, his strengths and his weaknesses. Despite the bracelets she could still use her power, or at least some of it. She decided to see just how much power she really had.
"Yes, you gave me this power. But you can't take it away. Only my death can. You gave it to me at birth, and it cannot be reclaimed. My friends will die, if I don't join you. And I will have to kill them, if I do. You decided a hard life would bring me to your side, so your tried to make my life hard. But you mistook me for my twin. So she lived the hard life. Also, you killed my parents. Yes, you created me; and I will destroy your world! And my traitor of a sister. I will be your Nemesis!
"Deceive has deceived,
And Illusion is dead.
You created, the Creator,
To stand in her stead." Rac snarled, with quiet menace, her eyes full of vengeance and hatred. Magneto froze in terror, and fell to the floor. The Brotherhood stared in shock and horror. "Your mistake was assuming the bracelets would work on me. You gave me so much power, that they only limit me." She said simply, and quietly. Immediately all the Brotherhood grabbed some shades and put them on. "One last thing," Rac said, "Deceive, from now you are no longer Deceive, but you are Judas, the traitor. And no longer my twin, or my sister." Helen turned and ran; she ran out of the door and away. The Brotherhood went into a huddle and started whispering.
"But what if.?"
"What are we going to do?"
"I don't know."
"What if we."
".Kill us."
"What if we.?"
"Good idea."
"I hate this."
"What if the professor turns up?"
"Well, it depends."
"Magneto wants him, too."
Behind Rac, Jean sagged, she couldn't do anything, but she had to do something.
* Jean, can you hear me? *
* Yes. Rac, is it you? *
* Yes, can you do anything? *
* No. I'm sorry. *
* Don't worry. It just means; I'm going to have to call in the Calvary. * Rac shut up and Jean was left alone to think.
