A/N: I am SO sorry that I've disappeared and fell off the face of the Earth! Lol. I appreciate everyone's comments. I've beengone for sooo long because one, my computer crashed. Two, I moved. Three, myother computer ( this crappy one I was on ) died. SO! I've lost all thechapters I've worked on from BOTH computers. THEN, because the drama neverends, I lost my password to ff.net. GOD! So much drama. xD.
So onto the chapters. I posted about three to make up forlost time, and hopefully get this rolling again.
EEE! This has NOTHING to do with the story line that's going on in Evolution now.NOTHING! Characters will indeed be used, but no story lines from there.. exceptmaybe romantic ones. ;P.
I don't own X-Men. Marvel. Or Anything that has some rich dude behind it. I'm just ...a girl. With a brain. And a story. =D. Yeah.
Wonder If Someday You'll Be Caged..
Conciousness finally came to her as she laid upon that cot for so long, faded white bandages about her wrist and forearm. She slowlyopened her eyes, a soft dim light from a flashlight going over her pupils thendisappearing. A hand brushed strands of her dark hair away from her face. Asoft, delicate hand. A woman's hand.
Squinting, dark eyes followed the blurry outline of who ever it was that was obviously helping her.
"Oh, Thank goodness you are alright, Kristina. I was worried for you."
Her voice was so soft and soothing, it was almost too...comforting. She fought to lift herself up off the cot; pushing her body to roll off the side to fall to the ground.
"Kristina, what are you doing?" The woman spoke again, her hands now preventing her from going off the side.
"I've... Where... Who are you?" She lifted up her head, pulling her body to sit up.
The woman helped her, hands behind Kristina's back as she guided her. "I found you practically bleeding to death on the floor in your room. Your friends were crying as they held you. Don't you remember?"
She sighed, hanging her head so that her chin rested on her chest. Yeah, she remembered it all. She always did whenever she did that to herself. Wanting to excape the voices, but they still came.. They still came.
"Well, you're very lucky that I came just in time. I'm the new doctor here at the Farm. And I'm just simply amazed by how well all of you here get along so well. It's amazing, really. I've never seen mutants be so.. united."
Raising a brow slightly, she looked at her oddly. Why does she talk to us like we're pets?
"It's quite intriguing, if you ask me. You all have a common bond; your mutation. That's what makes you so much stronger than the humans, doesn't it?"
She hesitantly nodded - where was this woman going with this?
"You'd love to leave, wouldn't you? Love to go back to wherever and whatever you came from? But... I know what you truly want.... Something that's like... how can I say it correctly..", the woman paused for a second, tapping her finger at her chin, "Ah! Vengence..." Her lips curled into a grin as the hand that was on Kristina's back wrapped about her side and hugged her.
Why is she doing this? She was so confused. But the woman was right. They all wanted that. Revenge. Vengence.. Pay back.
But who? Who could do it?
They tried.. But it ended so tragically.
Alana...
She felt tears in her eyes that were beginning to blur her vision. Rubbing her hands over her eyes, she felt the woman leave her side and stand. She moved infront of Kristina, lowering herself so that she was eyelevel with her.
"I know what you want and I know how you'll get away with it, darling..." The woman grinned again, her eyes flashing a golden yellow hue.
"... H-How?" She looked up to her, and her eyes - they were so different. The flashing hue.. My God.. Could she be..
"Oh, don't be stupid," the woman snapped, seeming to loose patience as seconds flew by, "Obviously with my help. Others will help as well, but they're just... helpers. I'm always stuck with all the dirty work, Kristina."
Before her eyes, the woman had begun to change; blue skin, golden eyes, and red hair. Her features changed but alas, she was definately a woman. Her muscles were defined from the outfit that she had worn, boots on her feet and, what it seemed, a bit of color to her lips. She looked a tad bit... cruel?
"Thought you were the only ones in this little Hell hole, hmm?" The woman changed a brow, rising to her feet and moving over to the door. She openned it slowly, peeking out into the hallway. Smiling to herself, she came back into the room, closing the door behind her. "Now, you must do exactly as I tell you, understand?"
She blinked, still confused. "...Huh?"
The woman rolled her eyes and placed her hands on her hips. "Just listen, alright? If you want to get out of here, you must do exactly as I say. You do want you and your friends out right? Right. You do. Now, I want to you to lay back down on the cot and don't make a sound. Close your eyes and pretend to be asleep. You can do that. You're a smart girl. From there, I'm going to carry you out of the room and down the hall. We'll run into some problems down near the - "
Kristina looked at her oddly.
"Are you listening?" She stopped, and walked over to her. " So then when we get down the hall and passed security, we'll be outside. I'll take you to the main road, but from there.. you're on your own. "
Her eyes openned wide. " On.. my own? "
The woman nodded, then began to shake her head. She sighed angrily through her teeth. " No no no. That won't work. You have no idea what's beyond this little hell, do you? Fine then, scratch the last part of the plan. Now, once we're outside, I will take you to a car and from there we'll be fine. But all you have to do is not say a word, and don't move. Not even if anyone touches you, or talks to you, or pokes things at you. Got it? "
She nodded.
" Well, what are you waiting for? Lay down so I can pick you up! "
Kristina did as told, and she laid back down on the cot; eyes closing as fingers played with the locket about her neck.
The woman had obviously changed from what she was before. A tall man was now where she was standing, hands lifting up Kristina and placing her over her shoulder. " Keep quiet.. " They hushed, and she felt them leaving the room. Doing as told, Kristina let her body be limp; arms dangled over shoulders as her head was nessled on the shoulder.
Could I really be getting out of here this easily?
"She's gonna be fine, I jus' know it.. " Gabby nodded to herself, looking to the empty spot where Kristina was in the room. The blood stained sheets and matress. The streaks of blood from where they picked her up from the ground and rushed her out of the room.
Her pale eyes looked over to the window 'wall' in the room, sighing as she saw people pointing and looking and gasping. With a thump of her tail, she passes a sigh, and curled her knees up to her chest; her chin found it's way to rest upon her knees. Slipping her arms around her legs, she let one loose and she cupped it slightly infront of her, letting little white flake sparks shoot a few inches upward. It helped the time pass by as she sat there. Alone.
Closing her hand, she let the sparks gather in her hand. Angrily, turned her body to face the window and let out a cry as she threw whatever sparks that hand been in her hand to the window. "I HATE YOU ALL!"
Tears rolled down her cheeks as she let her body go to the floor, and began coughing and crying all at once. Never had she felt so awful. So afraid. So angry. So alone. She had so many emotions - she couldn't stand them. Sure she was the happy kid before, but now. Now? How could she be?
She lost Alana.
She's loosing Kristina.
She was loosing her sanity.
"I hate you all.. " She sobbed as she crawled over to the mirrored window. "I wish they could put you in cages like us..."
She knew she couldn't hear her, but they could see her - they could see her leaning against the glass. Her hand up on the glass. Warm breathe fogged up the window as a slightly furry hand began to etch words into the foggy note..
' I HATE CAGES '
Moving her head away from the fogged part, she tapped on the glass and began pointing towards the slowing fading condenced cloud with scribbly words. Frosty eyes slowly looked down to the dirty ground in her cold little room. So alone....
A man clad in leather jacket and blue jeans, tipped his black coywboy hat at the window as shoes softly clunked away from the glass. "I know how ya feel, kid." A rusty voice spilled softly from chapped lips, hand then rubbing a scruff chin. Digging his hands into the pockets of his leather jacket, he continued down the hall of windows, dark eyes glancing behind dark, wispy bangs.
