Well, I have a lot of things to say.
*You see Trinity (from the Matrix)appear in front of you*
"It's the question that brought you here, reader," she says. "It's the keenness that leads you . . ."
RRRRIIIIIGGGGGHHHHHTTTTT!!!!! Whatever. I'm a little mad. Just a little crazy.
*
I explain Nathan's mutation in this chapter! You must be saying FINALLY. I also make John look smart, because he's the one who explains everything. Hehe.
*
Tigereyes, I was lightly surprised when I read your last review, because I DO EXACTLY THE SAME THING!!! I mean, the whole 'not allowed to go no the internet if it's not for work' thing that my school has, so I go illegally on fanfiction, pretending what I'm doing is extremely serious. Hehe. (Well, it is) If I get caught, I have a detention PLUS I can't go to the computer lab for two weeks. Well. I'll take my chances, because I am totally OBSESSED by fanfiction.
*
I'm sorry about my which and witch problem. I'm going to try and fix it. Do you see other similar mistakes?
* SOME NEWS ON X-MEN 2 AND 3!!!
Did you know we're all gonna get a glimpse of a furless Beast in X2? YAY! He's not doing a lot in the movie, but he'll be more in X3. I read somewhere that the people doing the movie said that three blue mutants would be too much. We already have Mystique and Nightcrawler.
Also, Yuriko will not be called Lady Deathstrike but just plain Yuriko Oyama. Ah well. Tell me, I'm pretty good in giving info about X-Men, even if I only saw the movie, have read only few books (and in French, in plus, can you believe it?). I do A LOT of research on Internet. I am OBSESSED.
Kitty is not going to be played by the same person in X2, and neither is Pyro. Oh, I can also assure you all that Pyro is in deed St. John Allerdyce (yes, that's his last name, if you are someone like me who didn't know). Why do they put St. before his name? Saint? What???
And for the others that have also just seen the movie, and were wondering what Rogue's real last name was, its D'Ancanto.
Did you also know, Magneto's name is Erik Magnus Lehnsherr (Magnus???)
For another thing, who is Theresa Cassidy? I hear she's also called something like Syrin. Can you please REVIEW and tell me who she is, what is her mutation, what's her role and all because I know (from a very good source called the Internet) that she's also going to appear in the movie. Tell me who she is (please).

Everyone! Today (the day I sent this chapter) is Friday March 14. ONLY 49 days 'till May second!!!!

Chapter 22:
Jean opened the door leading to the hallway and literally ran to the elevator. She pressed the third button, leading to the second floor. She waited impatiently as she felt the elevator go upwards. The door finally opened and she sprinted out, dogging a few students who just looked at her wide-eyed. It wasn't rare to see her with her doctor vest on, but lets say it wasn't normal to see it completely stained with blood.
She passed another group of students who also turned around as she passed. A door opened and Scott appeared in the hallway.
"Jean?" he asked, seeing his fiancé sprint pass him.
Ignoring him, Jean continued her way until she reached a rather large wooden door, which she opened without knocking.
"Professor!" she said, trying to catch her breath.
Behind his desk, the professor looked up from his papers and saw Jean, leaning against the closed door, breathing deeply.
He waited, knowing that she was going to give him her report on Nathan's status.
"The wound's not doing so good, but he'll live," she arrived to say between two gasps for air. "But there's something going on that's weird . . . according to his health and everything else, he's supposed to be dead."
"Yes, I know," the Professor said. "I saw the monitor."
"But, don't you find this is very abnormal?" Jean continued, walking forwards.
"Yes it is, but we can also say his mutation has something to do with it, probably," the professor said.
"But what is it?" Jean asked. "Daggers coming out of his wrists? What's that?"
The professor closed his eyes for a moment, obviously using his mutation.
"I just called John," he said. "He knows something about it that we don't."
They waited in silence a few minutes, until they heard a knock on the door. Pyro appeared in the entrance, a questioning look on his face.
"John, you said you knew something about Nathan's mutation," the professor started, going straight to the point. "Tell us what you know, starting from the moment you were separated from Jubilee at the docks."
"Well, I thought Jubilee was right behind me, professor," John said, trying to defend himself.
Jean and Charles nodded, and he started.
"Well, we saw this shadow, and I thought it was Nathan, and so I followed it," Pyro said. "I turned the corner and then, well, I saw a few other shadows all going in the same direction, away from me. I think those people were on the roofs. It was a really freaky thing to see, but I followed the shadows slowly. After some time, I think I got lost. I kept walking around looking for one of the X-Men, but then I saw the real Nathan, just sitting on the side of a warehouse. He was like, talking to himself or something . . . well, he was sort of unconscious. I stayed there and I saw he was going something with his hands. He did a dagger thing, and I watched it for a second because it looked weird. Nathan was still mumbling things, as if he was talking to himself inside his head. I saw the dagger in his hand disappear, so then I knew there was something fishy going on."
The professor stayed quiet, wanting to hear the rest.
"I wanted to see what it was, so I bent down to touch Nathan's hand, and another dagger appeared, except that this one was clearer than the other one. I saw that Nathan was still asleep, or something like that, and I tried to take the dagger. My hand just passed straight through it."
"But what is that supposed to mean?" Jean asked, slightly impatient.
"I think he can create things, but those things are controlled by his mind, sort of," Pyro tried to explain. "When he throws a dagger at someone, he's the one who creates the dagger with his mind, but its the mind of the other person makes it real. It's like if you see his dagger, and you believe it's there, you believe it's going to hurt you, and then Nathan uses that, to make his dagger real to your eyes."
The professor and Jean looked at him blankly, visibly not understanding clearly.
"He creates things by his mind," John tried to say. "Maybe because he didn't accept being a mutant, his mutation turned against him to show him that . . . well, to show him something for him to understand and accept who he is."
The professor's eyes widened.
"John, I am truly impressed," he said. "That is wonderful thinking."
Pyro smiled, buffing his chest with pride.
"Well, I'll go back to the lab," Jean said. "He'll still need a lot of work, but he'll live if he doesn't pull another one of his stunts like last night."
**
Back in the lab, Jean checked the machines connected to Nathan, giving information about his health status. All were stable . . .
And they stayed like that for the next three days. After that, he woke up.
**********
Well, that was for the mutation explanation.
What do you think? Still a little complicated? No worry! I will keep on explaining if it's needed. Oh, and in the next chapter, Nathan wakes up for real, and you'll see how he is . . . heheheh . . .
And more action on the way. I swear. I have full of ideas. To settle in more eagerness in you, I have one question to ask you (but I don't expect you to answer or anything, because I already know the answer to my own question). To who belong the shadows at the docks? Who set the fire? Why? Do they know Nathan or the X-Men? Friends or enemies? TOM TOM TOM!!!
* Oh, and go see Daredevil. It's a good movie. Better than Spiderman. *
For all of you who like my story, I have great news.
These past chapter, I've been saying that I have full of ideas for this story . . . well, to make this more simple, It's going to be in three parts. This story is the first part, and will end . . . like, in about ten to fifteen chapters . . . maybe more. The second part of 'A life worth living' will be just a little short, and you can already go read the first couple of chapters under the story name 'Unfinished Business'. It's just a little thing to introduce new characters that I will use in the third part to add them in Nathan's story, which will become not really just Nathan's story. I have many other characters that I'm wondering if I'm going to use . . .
Well, the third part is based on the X2 previews I've been seeing. For that, I am going to write A LOT on this story for the next month, because once I see X2, I probably won't have the same ideas. I should stop talking now, and I will go write more chapters, but I need REVIEWS.
Review? Please? . . . Pretty Please? . . . pretty please with sugar on top? . . . pretty please with sugar on top and a cherry? . . . pretty please with sugar on top, a cherry and chocolate sauce? . . . pretty please . . .
