The disclaimer saying I don't own shit within this fan fic is on strike and depression due to the fact I missed the season finale. I missed Todd...... I missed Fred...... I missed Rogue..... DEAR GOD HELP ME!!!! I'm going insane!!! I'm suffering major withdrawl! I can watch Hex Factor only so many times before it stops doing it for me..... PLEASE, if you have any human feelings, you'll give me head up when they're gonna run a rerun of it...... * shivers in a corner, holding his Toad and Blob action figures close *

Kitty and the other crawled along the back ledge of the mansion, trying to get to the front. They continued to look in every window, but found nothing but zombies. "Man, this sucks. What are we going to do?" moaned Evan. Everyone else wasn't feeling any better. Every time they looked in their own home, they saw visions straight out of hell. Not to mention, the smell of smoke was getting powerful. Evidently, the mansion was burning. They had found no signs of Roberto and Amara. Ray was long dead. The Brotherhood was still in the mansion, with the Professor, Wolverine, Storm, Forge, and Bobby. Not to mention those others from S.T.A.R.S. . "Well, look on the bright side," muttered Kurt. "What bright side?" asked Jamie. "At the moment, we're out of danger," he stated. Though, if this night had proven anything, it was that there was no such thing as out of danger. Wolfsbane lifted her head, and reverted to her dog form. She perked her ears, and her eyes widened. She reverted back to being human, turning to the group. "Guys, there's a lot of gun fire out there, and the sound of birds is deafening," she claimed. "Well, the gunfire is probably that other group Jill had talked about, but I have no clue what the birds are," mumbled Rogue. Everyone blinked and looked toward the night sky.

The moon was full, and illuminated the whole sky. Only a few dark clouds were in the sky. "Uh, hey, is it me, or is that cloud growing fast?" mumbled Sam, squinting his eyes, trying to see further. "Oh man, that's no cloud guys, that's a huge flock of birds, and their headed this way!" yelled Evan. Panic gripped the teens. The flock of birds, which turned out to be crows, was upon them in seconds. The mad birds started pecking them viciously. Evan blindly starting shooting out spike spears, impaling a few birds, but doing nothing to the whole. Kitty continued to phase through the birds. "Kurt! Grab anyone you can and teleport to the other side of the building!" screamed Kitty. Kurt nodded, grabbing Evan's arm and Jamie. Kitty ran forward and grabbed his waist, with Sam falling, and grabbing his tail, leaving Rogue to grab his leg. Kurt instantly teleported, but unfortunately leaving Wolfsbane alone against the swarm. She screamed and swatted, but the birds overwhelmed her, her eyes and face becoming nothing more than a stream of blood, the dark red fluid soaking the ledge. She stumbled forward, but slipped in the puddle of her own blood. Wolfsbane scream could be heard through the night, as she fell, landing with a sick thud on the ground. She gasped, unable to move or see. Blood was pouring from the many holes pecked into her face and neck. Her clothes were torn. She choked and gurgled on her own blood, tears of blood streaming from the busted and useless eye sockets. Though, that's when she heard something. It was fortunate she lost her sight. She never saw the zombies come. The fall had broken her spine, leaving her paralyzed, and without feeling, so she never felt their teeth rip into her flesh, ripping it straight off the bone..... all she saw was red, as the red faded to black, as she slipped off into death.

Kurt reappeared on the roof of the porch. All the teens quickly looked around, searching for the birds of prey. Luckily, they hadn't followed. They searched the front lawn for any monsters, but found none. They let a sigh of relief, but it was short lived. Underneath them, they heard a great crash. The next thing they saw, a large creature was walking away, dragging their elevator behind him. It walked quietly across the lawn, dragging its burden, not once paying attention to them, until it disappeared into the night. "What the hell was that?!" exclaimed Evan. Jamie sat huddled on the ground, hugging his knees to his chest, sniffling a little. Sam put a hand on his shoulder. "Hey, don't worry man. We're gonna get outta here." Jamie looked up. "How? Wolfsbane and Ray are both dead.... and I haven't seen Jubilee since we turned that last corner," sobbed the small boy. "She's ok. Remember, she had climbed to the top of the roof. She probably is gonna drop in any second now," said Kurt. For once, he was right, Jubilee did drop in, her shattered and bloody corpse fell right behind them. Her head had been ripped off. Everyone gasped, Kitty, Rogue and Jamie screamed. They all looked up, and saw a picture of hell. A Licker was crawling down the wall. His long tongue hung from it's mouth, which was full of dagger like teeth, blood pouring from his mouth and claws, bits of brain matter on its chin and side of its mouth. It hissed and lunged forward. Sam and Kitty ducked, pulling Jamie down with them. Luckily, Kurt grabbed Evan and jumped, moving them out of the way. Spike turned and shot a bone spear. The sharp projectile shot forward fast, and impaled the Licker right through the back of the head. The spear and monster flew forward, unit the front of the spear became imbedded in a tree, dark green blood pouring form the Licker, its body spasming in it's death throes. Jamie wept underneath Kitty's arm. "Now Jubilee...." Sam and Kitty gently helped the child to his feet. Evan had grabbed Kurt's tail, and lowered him down. The lobby and entrance way were in ruin, filled with dead or immobile zombies and dogs. "It's clear, we can make a run for it, but where do we go?" mumbled Kurt. Rogue turned to the group. "Well, since escape in the jet is no longer possible, because the mansion is filled with monsters, and that thing that walked out a minute ago stole our elevator. So there is only one place to go, the Brotherhood Boarding House," she stated, turning and facing towards the direction where they would head. "Are you crazy Rogue? That's where these things came from, it's suicide!" gasped Sam. Rogue shook her head. " No, not really. Didn't you listen to those other guys? A huge team is heading that way, and so were they. In this situation, I'm willing to bet the Prof and any who escaped with him are headed that way too. So, this is the only option. Won't be easy or safe, but it beats sitting here waiting to get pecked to death," she explained. The group sat silent, thinking. Kitty broke the silence. "She's right. If this nightmare is ever going to end. We have to go." Everyone nodded, their faces grim. Jamie wiped tears from his face, his eyes watery and bloodshot. "So, do we walk, or risk getting into the garage?" asked Evan. Kitty shook her head, and pointed right below them, at the foot of the stairs. It was Lance's jeep. Keys still in the ignition. With a final deep breath, all the teens huddled and took hold of Kurt, and he ported them all to the ground. They quickly jumped into the jeep, Sam at the wheel. He gunned the engine, stepped on the gas, and with that, the group of teens sped off towards the boarding house, toward salvation or damnation, none of them knew...... except for maybe one of them..... the one who had been in on this the whole time........ even though they never really knew it.

That's it guys. Not the ending I wanted, but the option was get to a breaking point, or keep writing all night. No offense, but I like to write, but sleep is something I do need. Oh, and to those who notice my taste for cliffhangers, if I didn't leave ya asking for more, why else would you wanna keep reading *winks*

*In walks Fred and Todd*

Todd: HEY! What about us??

Fred: Yeah, what happens to us???

Thegamingteendream_16: Easy guys. You're well loved guys, keeping you in peril wants them wanting more.

Todd: SO?! I don't appreciate being locked in a elevator!

Fred: And I don't like being dragged along the ground like a sack of potatoes.

Todd: Well, look it this way man, he said we're well liked, and everyone wants us back, so nothing bad can happen to us, and we can't die.

Thegamingteendream_16: *whistles, making no eye contact with the two*

Todd: I'm right, right?

Thegamingteendream_16: *silence*

Todd: Right??

Thegamingteendream_16: *rubs the back of his head, remaining silent, looking around the room*

Fred and Todd both: RIGHT??!!!!

Thegamingteendream_16: *opens mouth as if to answer, instead turns and runs away*

Todd: OH NO! YOUR NOT GETTING AWAY WITH THIS!!

Both he and Fred chase after the poor author.......
