Angela sent Mindbender one more poisoned glare before walking to the
kitchen.
Fred was just finishing a immense meal while Toad was still being chased around by Lance who was spewing death threats.
She paused, watching this scene for a moment, then phased outside to her car.
Wanda was waiting for her in the passenger seat.
She tossed Angela the worn keys, "Where we goin?"
Angela smiled grimly, "Anywhere that we can wreak some havoc."
"The mall?"
She shrugged, "Sounds good."
"What kind of havoc are we plannin on today?"
"I dunno.Spur-of-the-moment stuff. Whatever we feel like."
Wanda flexed her hands and popped her knuckles, "I feel like destroying something, after shopping of course."
"Deal." Angela nodded amiably.
'I almost hope that someone will try to provoke me just so I can have an excuse to blow them to kingdom-come.' she thought.
After window-shopping the whole store, Angela cracked her knuckles, "Lets do this."
"I'll start out subtle at first." muttered Wanda.
A blue light surrounded an expensive-looking vase and crashed it to the floor, shattering it instantly.
Angela felt a heavy hand clamp down on her shoulder and spun her around to see a smiling Wolverine.
"You wouldn't be doing anything, now would you?"
Angela smiled, this was perfect, "Yeah. Ya wanna do something about it?"
His faked smile dropped, "You don't want to mess with me. Final warning."
"Bring it on, Mr.Metal-claws." She shoved him as the final insult.
He glared at her dangerously, and slid out his claws, slashing at her head.
She phased outside, knowing he would follow.
Wanda was right next to her, "Don't forget, I want a turn beating up wolvie over there too."
"You go first, okay? I want to be the one to finish him off."
'It's a shame that only he came to fight.'
Someone jumped on her from behind, choking her.
'What the-' She flipped the person over her shoulder, listening to the sudden expulsion of air.
It was Kurt.
"You wanna play with the big girls now, eh fuzzy blue boy?"
He tackled her, throwing her to the pavement.
She heard Wanda yell in anger and astonishment as several of the other x- men joined the fray.
Angela set a piece of Kurt's clothes on fire to get him off.
Furiously, she sent a bolt of electricity racing toward Wolverine, who was currently chasing Wanda. It threw him off his feet, but, a second later, still twitching, he set off after Wanda again. Wanda hex-bolted him and joined Angela.
As the rest of the x-men showed up, closing around Wanda and Angela, only then did Angela realize what was happening.
'Ambush!' screamed her rational mind.
Logic told her to get away while she could, but, her passions told logic to stuff it.
Instead of running, she smiled happily, "You wanna mess with me? You got it!" A fire hydrant beside her burst, spewing a continuous blast of water, aimed at Angela.
'That's funny.I didn't know that anyone had the water power..'
She tore away a chunk of the brick wall, and hurled it telekinetically at the team as a whole.
Once again, Jean interfered, matching pressure for pressure.
Angela reached out psychically and located an artery in Jean's mind. She sealed it temporarily, holding it closed, cutting off the blood supply to Jean's brain until she collapsed. She felt her powers surge again, and willingly surrendered to her flowing emotions.
Angela surveyed the scene as a destructive force crackled out of her. She saw all too clearly the crumbling mall and the now familiar sight of people fleeing from her frenzied attack.
A voice called her name persistently, "Angela!"
It was unfamiliar, or was it? It seemed as though she had heard it before, however distantly in the past.
She paused in her destruction of the mall as the voice called out to her again, "Angela!" It was more insistent this time.
She turned about slowly in mid-air, trying to locate the source of the voice.
"Angela, over here!"
Her eyes locked onto a vision from her past. One word, one solitary thought that shut down all her other senses.
Troy.
These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which as they kiss consume Shakespeare
~ This may or may not be the end of Part One of The Shockwave Trilogy (it depends on your opinions),Part two, comes out after Christmas. It will be called "Tsunami". It is based on Troy, her twin brother. Both p.o.v.'s, please, review and tell me if I should add more! Thank you so much!
