That's Why

'What happened?' he wondered to himself. Wondering why there was so much pain for a brief second...or maybe longer. Why had all of him hurt for that long. Why was there a dull ache in the back of his skull.

For a moment he wondered. The pain scrambling his thoughts, then he remembered, the professor. Of course. Seemed like they didn't get there soon enough. But he was glad they got there then at least. He didn't really want himself to explode, or whatever would have happened if the professor could have continued. He was glad Magneto had done his job.

Then the thought of Magneto hit his mind. The thought of power entered after that. He stood still for a moment.

'You could' a voice in his mind whispered...hissed, that was more like it. His mind was over powered of the thought of...power. He shook his head, he shouldn't. But that was all he'd been hearing latley.

'John, you know you shouldn't be showing off...' 'John, what did I tell you about using your powers...'. He was enraged at their voices haunting his mind. He growled softly to himself.

'You could be...powerful with him,' the voice hissed again,' Power that would destroy them...their rules. You'd be more free. You would be free.'

He grinned suddenly. He would be free.

"Rogue, I have to go find him," Bobby spoke aloud after the pain subsided," Open the door hatch."

"Bobby are you sure? Maybe I should come with you."

"No," Bobby said passing back and forth by the door," You should stay here in case the rest of the X-Men get here...in case something happens."

"You're right," Rogue said as she pressed a button the would open the hatch," Go get him fast..."

Bobby trudged out into the snow, it seemed like it was snowing lightly, but it also seemed like snow was just appearing on the ground in front of him. Trying to prevent him from reaching Pyro.

He finally saw a small outline where John had...lied down on. Bobby suspected that it was from the pain that the professor had caused mutants all around for a brief moment. The brief pain had only happened a couple of minutes ago; John couldn't be far away.

Pyro found himself standing a few feet away from the helicopter that Magneto and Mystic where boarding. He actually wasn't a few feet away, but was on a hill that lead to the helicopter.

He ran down the hill, hoping to catch Magneto's attention so that Magneto would let him join him. Before he could really get Magneto's attention he heard a crashing sound behind him. It was an out of breath Bobby.

"John," Bobby grabbed John's shoulder," You can't go with Magneto."

"Why?" John asked impatiently.

"I- He's...he's the bad guy," Bobby said lamely, hoping that John would come with him anyway.

"So? Why should I stay with you guys? And the X-Men?" Pyro asked furiously.

Bobby leaned in close to John. And kissed him.

"That's why." Bobby said looking into John's eyes.

John stared at him, bewildered.

John nodded, "Okay."

They walked off to the Blackbird.

Magneto sighed as he watched Pyro and Iceman walk to the Blackbird.

"Oh well," he sighed," They'll be other days."

the end.

(written after the 1st two reviews.) A/N: I know the ending is rushed. But...it's sorta hard to explain. The ending is rushed because I got that idea for the ending when I was writing the middle of the story. The reason why John went with Bobby just because of one kiss is because John wants to know how Bobby and him will work out. I didn't extend on that because it would actually make the fic harder to understand if I start to really go into John's POV in this fic. I am thinking of writing a next part which will just be John's real POV including the kiss thing and then maybe making one fore Bobby. And note that most of my fics with Bobby and/or John have Bobby and John OOC.
