Okay, time to continue!!
Chapter Fifteen: Together for the Last Time?
Nereid shrugged for a moment, thinking to torture them. Kitty stood staring into her relative's scarlet eyes. They reminded her so much of when Pietro was possessed.
"Actually, let's make things a little more fun. I'm sure you all like drama correct?"
Nereid snapped her fingers and out of the shadows came three people. Rogue and Evan froze immediately. A tear came down from Rogue's eye as she stood up stumbling. There stood Remy with the same glowing eyes that Kitty had. Evan looked up and there was Rahne standing next to Kitty. Lance moved his attention over to Pietro who easily got up and headed to Kitty. He knew something was wrong. That same evil grin and scarlet red eyes.
"Kitty!! Move!!"
"Attack!!"
Pietro dashed over to Kitty and seized her neck. She began to choke as she tried to loosen his grip. Kitty looked over to Remy and Rogue. Remy was throwing charged cards at her while Rogue flipped around, resisting to fight. Then Kitty's attention moved to Evan and Rahne who were throwing punches, spikes, and bites. Quickly, Kitty phased away from Pietro, rubbing her neck gently.
"I'm sorry Pietro."
Suddenly, Kitty leapt at Pietro, knocking him down. She stood up and backed into a wall as he dashed back up to her.
"Pietro!! Stop it!"
Fists plunged into the wall as Kitty moved her head from side to side, avoiding Pietro's swift punches.
"Remy!! It's meh! Rogue!!"
Rogue flipped once more, avoiding a charged card. Remy sped over to her right and charged a card. Rogue backed up and moved to the side avoiding the explosion. (Remy, please stop.)
Evan and Rahne were exchanging blows, left to right. A spike flew over Rahne and over to Pietro. His eyes widened as Pietro picked up the spike.
"Oh shiii---!!"
Before he could finish, Rahne punched him, making Evan fall straight to the cold ground.
Kitty stared at Pietro with her eyes swelled with tears as he lifted the spike. She closed her eyes tight, hoping that Pietro would place it back down until she felt a slight pain on her shoulder. Kitty choked for a moment and turned to her right. Her shoulder was bleeding since Pietro grazed the spike to the wall just above her shoulder when she moved. Kitty raced over to the other side as Pietro pulled the spike back out of the wall. Rogue turned to see Pietro ready to stab Kitty with the spike as she cowered in the corner, crying her heart out. Thinking quickly, Rogue swung Remy towards Pietro and kicked him over to Pietro, knocking him to the side. Remy jumped up and threw a card at Rogue making her collapse. Kitty shielded herself as Pietro stood back up. She clenched he shoulder, trying to rid the pain. Suddenly, after a few seconds, Kitty opened her eyes thinking that Pietro would've killed her by now. When she looked at him, Pietro fell to the ground. Kitty looked around and saw everyone else on the ground. She turned to Nereid who held a glowing ball of water in her hands.
"You humans are boring. I've seen better. Now, I'll have to finish you all off."
Nereid threw the ball to the ceiling making it splash and create a large tidal wave, filling up the room starting at their feet.
"Hmm, you all only have a couple minutes to get out. Can you get past me? I don't think so."
Kitty stumbled over to Pietro, lifting him up. His eyes shot open, luckily, he was normal now. Pietro's eyes met Kitty's he sat up.
"I told you. I promised."
Kitty shot him a curious look. "What're you talking about?"
"I promised that Magneto would touch you."
Suddenly, the water reached up to Kitty's hips making her stand up as Pietro did. Finally, everyone was awake. Of course, Pietro pretended to gag when he saw how close Remy and Rogue were getting. He looked to Nereid who was giggling insanely.
"Maybe I should raise the water faster....."
Suddenly, the water moved up to Kitty's neck. She held onto Pietro as he swam over to Remy, Rogue, Evan, and Rahne.
"We have to pass her somehow." Whispered Rahne as she began to shiver.
Suddenly, Kitty started to worry. She looked around frantically.
"What's wrong?" asked Pietro.
Kitty began to swim away and dive down. Pietro looked at Remy strangely then Rogue quickly remembered who was missing.
"Lance!! Kitty's gone after Lance!!"
Down at the very bottom, Lance was floating towards the middle. Kitty quickly swam over and grabbed him to lift him up. Evan quickly for Kitty's grasp. Pietro began to look around for someway out and to get rid of Nereid. He looked over to Kitty and noticed she had the fake teardrop connected to her necklace. Pietro swam back to Kitty and began unbuckling the necklace.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm gonna talk to Nereid."
Nereid floated to the top of the water and eyed Pietro.
"Yes?"
"I want to you to let them out."
Kitty placed her hand on Pietro's shoulder. "No, Pietro, just give her the teardrop."
He shook his head then smiled at Kitty. "You know I'm not gonna give it to her. Just get going."
As the group started to swim past Nereid, she grinned at Pietro evilly. Kitty stopped and turned to Pietro just before she left to the exit.
"Promise me you'll come back!!"
Pietro shot her a look. "Sure! Just get going!"
Kitty and the others swam as fast as they could through the halls as the water began to rise slower. Evan was dragging Lance as Rahne was doggy- paddling. Remy and Rogue were ahead of everyone just to keep look out. Suddenly, the ruins began to shake violently. Kitty lashed to Lance.
"Lance, stop it!"
Evan shook his head. "He's not doing it!"
Everyone turned and saw rocks piling behind them. Kitty swam to the rock wall until Rogue grabbed her. She looked up and saw everyone climbing out of the water and onto the top of the ruins.
"Rogue! Pietro's in there! How's he gonna get out in time?!"
Rogue shrugged. "Ah don't know but he wants yuh out don't he?!"
They stared at each other for a moment. Remy looked down the tunnel when everyone got up.
"Come on Mademoiselles. Can't wait forever!"
Remy reached his hand out and pulled Rogue up. Rogue looked down and saw Kitty staring at the rocks angrily.
"Come on Kitty!"
She looked up and grabbed Rogue's gloved hands, lifting her up. When they were all on the top, they began racing towards the entrance. Suddenly, Remy stopped.
"Wait Chere'!!"
Rogue turned when everyone stopped.
"Whut!?"
"We forgot Wanda and Magz!"
"I'm right here..."
Heads turned to the right and saw Wanda sitting on a rock. Kitty raised an eyebrow.
"How'd you get here?"
"There was another exit you know. But it led up here."
Smacks were heard when everyone slapped themselves or cursed themselves.
"Whut about Magneto?"
Wanda stood up. "Forget about him! He's gone through worse."
They began racing down the collapsing ruins. Kitty kept looking back, hoping that Pietro would just pop up. She turned back around and jumped off of the top and landed on the ground. She stumbled a bit, feeling her shoulder's stinging pain. Kitty turned to her shoulder and saw it bleeding rapidly. Suddenly, she felt someone wrapping something on her shoulder. Kitty looked up and saw Lance wrapped part of his shirt on her.
"Thanks." She whispered.
Suddenly, a ringing sound was heard. Remy reached into his pocket and pulled out a cell phone.
"Whut the hell? How did yuhr cell survive that!!?"
"Bonjour."
Suddenly, a silver corvette pulled up and stopped in front of them. There was Pyro with his cell in hand.
"Hop in!!"
When everyone got in, Kitty stared at the collapsing ruins as a piercing scream echoed the area. Kitty felt her heart skip a beat for a moment. She closed her eyes, praying for Pietro's safety on the way home.
