RV: Here's a new chapter.

"You're too late X-Men," Magneto called from high up on the platform standing in front of half conscious Milani. A gold coloured light began to form around Ashley as a similar blue light did the same around Amber. The lights drifted towards Milani on the platform. The gold and blue lights intertwined with the red light forming around Milani. "The prophecy has come true."
The X-Men looked on in awe and horror. Jean was the first to break the trance that had engulfed the X-Men. She tried to float up to the platform but Fyreph tackled her to the ground. Fyreph's attack propelled the others to engage in battle. Aquarius launched himself at Nightcrawler before the teleporting mutant could move. Deji Charat began to annoy Wolverine with her mere existence. Six metal claws swiped and slashed at the little cat like person. Cyclops made a run for the platform but was knocked to the ground by a rumble created by Avalanche. With the exception of the Scarlet Witch and Juggernaut who were guarding Magneto and Milani, the rest on both sides paired off with whomever was closest a the moment while Amber and Ashley lay on the floor dying.

I watched helplessly as the X-Men and the Brotherhood fought. The cerulean blue and gold lights kept coming towards and swirling around me. The blood red light absorbed the other lights creating an oddly enough pretty light. My gaze shifted to Amber and Ashley's motionless bodies lying on the floor. Out of the corner of my eye I caught Wanda's worried look that spread across her face.
Suddenly the world in front of me vanished and other soon replaced it. Humans, non-mutants, were dying everywhere. Their pain and agony slammed into me like an iron fist to the stomach. I felt my tears and sweat slide down my face as I gasp for air. Something warm and sticky also makes its way down the side of my face.
*This can't be happening!* I screamed at myself. *This isn't how it's supposed to be.* I felt myself begin to hyperventilate as panic set in. The next thing I heard was someone screaming "STOP!" I didn't realize it was me until all movement stopped including the swirling lights around me. The lights changed direction, moving clockwise, and the picture in front of me switched to one of pure bliss and joyfulness. Humans and mutants no longer fight and the Brotherhood is no where to be seen. I immediately declared that this world sucked majorly. *Nothing should ever be this lovey-dovey. Not even Hunter and I.*
It took me a few minutes to figure out how the lights worked but once I did I did some crucial rearranging. I made the red light go counterclockwise along with some of the gold light. With the rest of the gold light and all of the blue light going clockwise, a better picture began to form. Humans and mutants lived peacefully with few altercations. The Brotherhood stayed around just to make things interesting once in awhile. Wars became fewer along with unnecessary violence. (RV: like child and other forms of abuse. See I do have as soft side.) Somehow I placed this one into effect.
My vision cleared leaving me to focus dimly on the fight slowly stopping. The gold and blue lights float back and enter Ashley and Amber. The red light faded as my consciousness slipped into darkness.

Tobias and Hunter half ran half walked due to Hunter's injuries into the large room with worried looks on their faces. Kitty and Kurt were not far behind them. Rogue pressed a few random buttons on a control panel next to the machine. Miraculously the platform lowered without anything blowing up.
The red glow surrounding Milani had not subsided completely. Hunter jumped up onto the platform heedless of the gash in his side. He undid the handcuffs round Milani's wrists and caught her. Upon contact, the red glow faded leaving her skin an eerie white. Blood trickled down her cheek from a deep but small cut lining her right eyebrow. Suddenly she cried out, her gold eyes wide with fear, and struggled in Hunter's arms.
Hunter held her closer to him. "Milani, you're safe! It's alright," he whispered soothingly into her ear. "I'm here. You're safe now, baby."
Milani looked up at him and wrapped her arms round his neck. She buried her face in the torn collar of his shirt breathing in his scent. "Hunter! Thank god, you're okay! What about the others?"
"I don't know," he replied pulling back so she could see Amber and Ashley. "They seem to a bit ashen, but they'll recover quickly."

Darren held Amber in his arms. For some odd reason, he has grown large silver wings after the pulsating gold, blue and red lights faded. Amber's wings were spread out in disorder. Her scar on her eye still glowed with a cerulean blue light. His fingers gently stroked the scar and the light subsided. Amber opened her dark blue eyes and smiled up at him. "My wish came true."
"Care to explain?" he inquired softly.
"I wanted you to fly with me," she yawned. "I love you."
"I love you, too. How are you feeling?"
"Tired, I suppose." She laid her head on his shoulder and fell asleep.
* * *
"Are you guys alright?" Tobias asked, helping Ashley to her feet. He turned to face the others and was met with looks of surprise. "What?"
"You- you spoke?!" Hunter laughed confusedly. He scratched his head while keeping one hand around Milani's waist to help support her since she refused to let him carry her because of his side wound.
"I wanted him to be able to speak," Ashley said weakly.
Out of no where, Sabretooth came up behind Ashley and snarled at her. "You're the one that sent me to that god forsaken island!"
Ashley turned and gasped as the hairy mutant lifted her off the ground. Tobias flew at his head but was hit by Ashley as Sabretooth threw her. Both went flying into the wall and fell through it. They laid there dazed as Sabretooth lifted a large chunk of wall and threw it at the two. Tobias rose his had and the wall chunk hit an invisible barrier deflecting back at Sabretooth. The hairy mutant was knocked unconscious. Tobias sat up, never removing his wing from Ashley. Hunter, Darren, and the X-Men gathered around him.
Jean knelt down next to the couple. "Let me see her wounds."
Tobias shook his head. "No, her left side is damaged. She needs to go a hospital."
"I heard fighting sounds in here so I came in," a man said running up behind the group. As he got closer he saw Ashley's pale face. "Is she a mutant?"
"Yes." Tobias answered suspiciously.
"I help run a mutant clinic down the road. It's not too far."

RV: Being sick to your stomach and almost throwing up is worse than actually throwing up. Please be really nice and review. Maybe it'll make me feel better.
AW: If you don't review she'll throw up on you.
RV: Eh, maybe if I do I'll feel better in time to go to the Women's World Cup this weekend. It would suck if I missed it on account of being sick.
