Chapter Three: Build Me Up Buttercup
After the movie, the girls exited the theater as quick as possible for more than one reason. The first one being they had to meet the others at the food court in less than two minutes, and the second being getting as far away from Pietro as possible. When the three got to the food section of the mall, they saw a frowning Scott, tapping his foot. Ada couldn't help but giggle at the sight of him. She thought that the leader of the team was just too hilarious. The way he was head over heals in love with Jean, and his annoyingly seriousness. So far Ada was getting along with most of the X-team, with a few exceptions, Jean and Scott. So far the telepath had stayed away from Ada's thoughts, and she was grateful. One thing that was important to Ada was first impressions, and well Jean didn't do a good job on that part. Or maybe it was the whole preppy cheerleader thing Ada didn't like. Who knew, the only thing Ada was sure of was that if she was in a mess the two would still fight like hell to save her, and she respected that.
"Ready to go?" Jean asked them.
"Yes and fast." Ada giggled. She knew even a broken foot wouldn't stop the speedster if he wanted revenge.
"What? Why?" Scott questioned concerned.
"Let's just say, the like player just got like played." Kitty smiled.
"Okay." Jean didn't inquire, and she made sure that Scott didn't either.

When the team got home, they all went to the rec room to hang out. Ada decided to go and take a bath. When she undressed she started the bath, when the tub was full she added bubbles. Ada needed to relax, and what better than a bath? She slipped into the tub, and she sighed as the hot water surrounded her body. She closed her eyes, and leaned her head against the wall. She began to sing, something she often did when she relaxed. Ada enjoyed singing, in the bath; it made her feel like some sort of princess. She began to hum the tune, as she washed her body and hair.
"Why do you build me up buttercup?" she began the song, it was an oldie but a goodie. At first she sang the song softly, the as she got into the beat she belted out the words. "Why! Do! You! Build me up!"
"Buttercup." A voice replied.
Eyes still closed, Ada dived into the tub, and making sure she was invisible. Then when she thought maybe the person left, her head protruded out of the water. Her eyes widened at her visitor. "What the hell? How did ya?" She was in complete shock.
Pietro gave a beautiful smirk. "Well, running isn't the only fast thing I can do."
She new he meant that comment as both sexually and seriously she arched an eyebrow "How nice for you." She replied curtly. "What do you want?"
"I have to want something?" He eyed the tub, she glared at him.
"Do you want me to break the whole leg?" she asked him sickeningly sweet. "Or maybe both?"
"Now now, play nice." He told her. "I just wanted to repay you for that wonderful kiss, I received earlier."
"Did it ruin your little date?" She asked in mock sympathy.
He smiled "You wish."
She sighed heavily. "Please leave. I am trying to take a fucking bath here."
"And a nice one too." He replied, and splashed some bubbles and water into her face.
Ada did not feel comfortable in her current situation. "Turn around." She commanded him. She wanted to get out and put on a towel, so she could at least feel a bit decent. She had forgotten that there was a mirror in the room, so even if Pietro did turn he would still be able to see all. But forgetting about that minor detail, she gave Pietro a full show, unexpectedly. She grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her body. "Okay, now back to business." She replied when she was ready.
Pietro had a huge smile on his face, and Ada couldn't figure out why. He gestured to the mirror, and her eyes widened. Her whole body turned bright pink in anger and embarrassment. She was so angry she screamed, causing Pietro to jolt out of the bathroom, knowing full well that Wolvie would be on his way. Ada was surprise that the scream had made the boy leave, and a smile crossed her face. It quickly faded when Logan crashed through the door. "LOGAN!" Ada screeched.
He quickly turned and left the bathroom. But he stayed outside her door. "What happened?" He sniffed the air. He didn't need an answer. "Silver." He growled.
"LEAVE NOW!" Ada screamed at him from the bathroom. Logan did as the girl asked, but mumbled under his breathe something about Pietro being a sneaky piece of shit. As the realization of what had just occurred hit Ada's mind, she couldn't help the smile that crossed her features. She heard the professor call her to the conference room; apparently they were having a meeting in a few minutes. Ada sighed and pulled on a golden rod spaghetti strap shirt that said 'Chicago' in burgundy letters and a pair of extra large mess navy blue shorts. When she was dressed she hurried to the room, she was a little late but not to.
"I have called you in for an emergency meeting." The professor told the team.
Ada suspected that this might have to do with her visitor, so she spoke up "Professor, I have no idea how Mr. Maximoff entered the mansion, I was sure I had stopped him for at least a few weeks."
She received stares from the others. The professor just smiled "Your visitor is not the cause of this meeting."
"Oh." She replied, she felt stupid for bringing it up.
"Now, there have been some strange occurrences in the southern tip of Germany. It seems that someone is playing God to normal persons, messing with the local occupants DNA, turning them into one of us." The professor told the group.
"Magneto?" Scott asked.
The professor shook his head. "No, I have spoken with him, and he is not the culprit behind this insanity."
"So someone is turning normal people into mutants?" Jubilee asked.
The professor nodded. Ada was confused "Well, what exactly happens to these people?" Neither Ada nor Kurt had said a word about the country of the strange happenings. Both had family in the southern part of the country, and both were praying it wasn't in the town their families were in.
"The tests do what they are set up to do, turn these people into mutant kind. But, it has side effects. Playing with DNA is very dangerous, and this person must be an expert but even experts make mistakes." The professor replied. "The people die within 48 hours."
"Vat town?" Kurt asked.
Both Ada and Kurt held their breathe for the answer. "Donaueschingen."
Ada's eyes widened. "Großmutter" (Grandma) she said under her breath. She kept her calm, "Who's dead?"
The professor gave her a reassuring look. "Your family is fine." Ada gave a sigh in relief. "We will be leaving for German in the morning with Magneto and his team." At that statement everyone's expression went blank.
"Yer kiddin." Rogue stared at Professor Xavier in complete shock.
He shook his head. "No Rogue, in fact they should be arriving any minute."
As soon as the professor had finished his statement, a man entered the room along with ten others.
Wolverine unleashed his claws. "I don't like this."
"Well, Wolverine it looks like you have no choice." Magneto replied. The man raised his hand in and Wolverine was raised into the air.
"Logan!" Ororo cried; Magneto could kill the man in an instant if he wanted to.
"Magneto, we are not here to fight each other. You are here to work together with us." The professor told the man.
Magneto nodded, he didn't trust the three clawed man. "So Charles are we going to set up the teams?"
"Alright." Scott started "Jean and I, Sprite and Nightcrawler-"
"No Scott, we are working together. You will each be paired with a member by Magneto or I." The professor started.
"Lance and Scott." Magneto replied. "You both are the leaders so you will be teamed together."
Both Scott and Lance glared at each other. "Pro-" Scott began. But Magneto and the professor continued. The teams were Rogue and Gambit, Boom Boom and Nightcrawler, Colossus and ShadowCat, Sprite and Quicksilver, Sypke and the Scarlet Witch, Jean and Wolverine, Sabertooth and Strom, Blob and Sunspot, Toad and Wolfsbane, Pyro and Iceman, Mystique and Beast, and others.
"Professor I really don't think-" Scott was interrupted.
"Just go with it." Ada replied. She wasn't in the mood; she wanted to solve this before her family got hurt. "The faster we get there the sooner everyone's out of danger." Ada glared at Scott "And if you screw up and anyone else gets killed. You will have to deal with me!" She was completely serious.
"Sugar Ah'm sure they're alright." Rogue put her hand on her friend's shoulder.
Kurt walked over to Ada, he understood how she felt. "Es ist gut. Ich verspreche, keine erhalte hurt." (It will be alright. I promise, no one will get hurt.) He wipped the tears from Ada's cheek.
Ada gave a weak smile and replied. "Ich hoffe, daß Sie Recht haben. Für jede Grund." (I hope you are right. For every ones sake.)
"Can-we-go-now?" Quicksilver asked impatiently.
As fast as the speed demon himself she grabbed him by the collar, and shoved him against the wall. He face full of anger. "If you screw this up, you'll need to be worried about more than just your foot." Quicksilver cocked an eyebrow. ^^What's up with her?^^
Her family lives where all that freaky stuff is going on. Jean told him mentally.
Quicksilver didn't need to be told twice. So he decided to leave her alone for a bit, and leave the tormenting for later.
