Chapter 12: Jade:The Winged Demon

I took a look at the paper in my hand,was this rundown place the Brotherhood Boarding house?? My large pupiless red eyes scaned the area as I pulled my jacket closer to my back,I hated having to wear it to contain the two things that caused my mother and father to shun me out,I loved the two thing growing right out of my back.I had been told my name was Jade Hummer by the hospitle,I'd belive it,if I hadn't caught the bitter scent of a lie,people tended to do that to me if they knew my seceret.My eyes even gave away the fact that I was a mutant,my mother had expected this,she had had her own wings detached from her body.My mother,sweet Mrs.Badling Hummer,or should I put on the maiden name,Ms.Badling Lehnsherr.She could both fly and control solid objects.I perfered to go by Jade Lehnsherr,Jade Demon Lehnsherr. I tightened my grip on the black devil's pitch fork,I had earned the nickname 'Devil' from it.I walked up to the door and knocked.

"Yeah?"

A girl asked,her dark brown blonde hair up in a ponytail and her black blue eyes holding mishift,the mishift of a kitsune. I smile and said.

"I'm Jade Lehnsherr,I'm looking for a group called the brotherhood."

She just smile and yelled into the house.

"Pietro,clean out a room."

"Why do I have to?"

"Just shut and do it."

I had to put my hand over my mouth to keep from laughing,they were fighting like a married couple.

"Come on in."

I could tell she wasn't usually like this,probally something about my last name.I didn't know if Lehnsherr was brittish,french or germen.

"So,what are your powers?"

I looked up at her,she was probally a whole four inches taller than me.

"Hightened scences,I can manipulate and object and turn it into a weapon and I have wings."

"I'm-a-type-of-vampire-witch-and-a-speed-demon."

I made a confussed face at the blurred sentence.

"Ok,I'll go a bit slower,I'm a type of vampire witch and a speed demon."

There was a bit of laughter in her voice.

"How old are you?"

"14."

"Man,our team keeps getting them younger and younger."

I looked up to see a girl with short black hair and blue eyes sitting on the couch beside another girl with sky blue hair and red eyes,my mother had spoken of someone she knew with blue/brown hair named Kay Star.

"I'm Saphire Star."

Said the blue haired girl,a friendly smile spreding across her face.

"Wanda Maximoff."

The black haired girl said,looking giving me a look over and smiled.

"Oh,I'm Blade Mist."

Mist,mother had mentioned that last name,too.Catly Mist.

A muffled voice came from the hall.

"Toad,you put three Driver Ed. teachers out of their misery."

"They were unstable."

"All of them?"

"Yea."

The voice owners came into the room.

"Jade this is Lance Alvers and Todd Tolanski."

"Also known as Dumb and Dumber

I looked over at Wanda.

"She'll have to share a room with water gun."

The white haired boy said,walking pass me.

"Excuse me."

"Oh,sorry,I meant Water Demon."

"Why you little,"

And Saphire took of after the guy,Pietro.I fingered the army keys I had gotten from my mom before my wings sprouted,they were from World War II and had her name on them,she said they called her Badly back then,I still couldn't belive my mom was 56 and looked like she was 23.

"This all your stuff?"

"Yeah."

"Alright,follow me."

I brushed out my waist lengeth black hair,my red wings were fluttering lightly behind me,I had changed from a black baggy t-shirt that had been cut of to show my stomach,the black short shorts and red belt along with the black combat boots to a lose pair of grey pajama pants and a lose grey shirt.

"Can you actully control those??"

I jumped at the voice,god it sounded like Kagome from Inuyasha.I turned to see Saphire in the doorway.

"Yeah."

"Can you fly??"

"Yeah,but I have to have more room."

"It's fine,I just wanted to know."

I myself sounded like Videl from Dragonball Z.

"Set your alarm for 6:00 in the morning,most of us arn't as fast as Pietro and Blade."

"Ok."

I groaned and banged my fist down on the alarm clock,the annoying little buzz finally turned off as the numbers changed to 7:00.

"Hey,get up."

"Lemme alone."

I mumbled,pulling the covers closer to my head,until suddenly they were wet,very wet.I shot up and glared at Saphire,her hand dripping icey water. I growled and picked up my pitch fork,and proceeded to chase her down the stairs after changing into my usual clothes.

"Your gonna have to wear somethin' else,the wings are showing."

I growled once again and turned on Blade.

"Your not a morning person,are you?"

"Nope."

I hissed and started to chase her,but lost sight of her. I grabbed a breakfast bar and shot out to the jeep as Lance hollered. "Hurry up!"

I rubbed the base of my neck as I walked to the Brotherhood table,I had ended up in changing into a baggy dark red shirt that fell just passed my hips and a pair of black jeans. From what I heard the principal still hasn't recovered from the incident with the hurricane.

"Oh yah. It's green mush,again."

I snickered at Blade's mock enthuseasime.

"No really,Mr.McCoy titled it as a poison."

"Mr.McCoy?"

"He's teacher who used to work here."

"Oh."

"Toad,remember what you tried to do after we watched My Favorite Martian?"

"Yeah,how could I forget?"

"Well you did go runnin' around the neaborhood yelling 'Matians are attacking,Martians are attacking,' over and over and over and over and over and-"

"Ok,Pietro,we get the point,stop it with the finger,your making me dizzy."

I snorted and tring to sniff out any poisons in the 'food'.
