Stripping off his coat Adam let it fall beside him as he spread his arms and turned around to show that he was unarmed, not that he really thought it was necessary. Whoever was lurking around Sanctuary had already shown themselves more then capable of disabling him since they had already managed to take down three fifths of his team.
"I'm unarmed" he called out "Not that that really matters to who ever you are. But I would like to know what you're doing in my Sanctuary" All said while continuing to turn.
It was like a hiss throughout the room, low and almost reptilian "Your Sanctuary..."
"What makes you think it is yours any longer Adam" His name being long and drawn out, the voice was so distorted he couldn't even tell whether it was male or female.
"Tell me," the Voice echoed as it spoke "Did it hurt you to see Sparky get zapped? To see your feral subjected to one of her greatest fear's? The Psionic was lucky in comparison, she only got a kick in the face" The voice grew lower, darker some how "You won't be so fortunate, for all of the pain that you have inflicted, for everything that you caused to happen, you will pay. And that I swear!"
Adam's face hardened as his people were spoken of, the voice had grown louder as it spoke, louder and angrier and definitely female, and with those last words a figure sprung from the shadows surrounding the dojo. Flipping down to land crouched and raise herself to a standing position.
Of all the things Adam had expected this hadn't even been on the list, a girl who couldn't have been any older then eighteen, and probable not even that stood before him. Maybe five seven, five foot eight. She had dullish auburn hair with a white streak running through it, green eyes and a slender white figure, if those eyes hadn't been tainted with a hatred pure enough to make him shiver she could have been a model.
She had on a slightly worn red leather coat, a silky black tank top, tight black leather pants and black knee high leather boots. She also stood agressively, one leg slightly forward, arms crossed.
"Do you know who I am Adam? Have you seen my face in your little database?" Eye's narrowing she said "Ever read my file? or am I not important enough to have one"
Arms extending out to her sides she flipped back, her coat flowing through the air behind her. Freedom was the only way to describe it, like perfect freedom as she moved and landed, her hair whipping back in an almost slow motion way. Eye brow's arching as her gaze locked with his once more.
"Go ahead," she said "Read it" her hand flinging out to indicate the nearest computer console. "Lets see what you know about me"
Never taking his eyes from her, Adam cautiously made his way over to the console
"Jenna Salvatore" She called out as his eyes flicked to the screen, she watched as he called up her file, a thrill surging through her as she saw how little data there was, the Saint Adam cared so much for all the new Mutants out there that he didn't even bother to keep track of them. "Read it aloud" She ordered
He complied "Jenna Salvatore, daughter of Maureen Salvatore. Father Unknown, Born in Australia. Lived there for a year and three months before moving back to the United States. Mother died when she was seven, after which she was placed into foster care in Illinios. End of file"
"Not much is there" She sneered, "Not even an update since I was seven years old"
Adam faced her once more, "You're the child of one of the Children of Genomex, there are hundreds, maybe thousands like you. Its impossible to keep track of all of you anymore then that you simply exist, sometimes not even that"
Her face never changed, not even for a fraction of an instant " Yes" She hissed "I'm well aware of how many of us there are. And soon you too shall become aware of just how many of us are out there, living with the curse you have given us, the pain, the suffering" Pain and rage was slipping into her voice as she cried her plight. And Adam was beginning to think he knew what was going on.
"You think I'm responsible for the pain that you've had to live with?" In more then one way he supposed he was, he had been the Chief Bio-Geneticist at Genomex and had been responsible for most of the creation of New Mutants.
"Yes" her voice was raising and filling with something like exultation "We" and that 'we' was clearly a signal to the others in the complex for four more individuals came from various places to form a semi-circle around Ms. Salvatore. "All do"

AUTHORS NOTE: Sorry if its developing too quickly, I'm not really good at dragging things out, I also apologise for the shortness of each chapter, I am trying to increase their lengths. This is also the part where anyone who wants to make and suggestions of any kind can feel free to do so, in fact I'd welcome any suggestions that anyone has!
