RV: Yeah, I'm not offended, Ice Lynx. I know a few other people who argue
the same way.
AW: Who?
RV: My family, Minion Dan, Todd, Rosie, you-
AW: I do not argue like that!
RV: Yes, you do!
AW: DO NOT!
RV: DO TOO! YOU'RE DOING IT RIGHT NOW!
AW *runs at RogueVampyr and attacks*: GRR! *stops* I *do* do that, don't I? I blame it on you. You're a bad influence and my parents think you're a nice girl!
RV: Ironic ain't it? *gets a dirty look from Angel of the Wolves* Sheesh!
`~!@#$%^&*()_+?(
"Milani, wake up," a voice echoed in my head.
"Why?" I mumbled sleepily. My eyes remained closed.
"Wake up," he said again. "Open your eyes."
"Fine!" I open one gold eye and turn my head slightly away from Hunter's warm shoulder. Magneto stood about a yard or so away. Hunter softly placed me on my feet but keeps his arms wrapped around my waist. "What do you want, Magnet Ass?"
"You ruined my plan, my dream," the older man hissed at me.
I felt Hunter stiffen behind me and gently squeezed his hand in reassurance. "*You* wanted to kill me, my boyfriend and all my friends! I say you got off easy so quit acting like a baby and piss off!" I shouted at Magneto. "If you want to take it out on someone take it out on yourself. I'm tired of you whining and complaining that the world will never accept us. However now that they do accept us, you come around me and bitch about it!"
A round nurse came running down the hall and stood behind Magneto with her hands on her large hips. "What is going on here?"
The master of metal turned around to face the grandma nurse. "Nothing ma'am," he said calmly. "I came to visit Miss Leilang and upset her. I was just leaving." He turned back around and walked towards Hunter and me. He leaned down and whispered in my ear, "This isn't over, Ember."
"You're right." I shoved a fireball into his stomach. "Now it is. If you or your henchmen ever come near me or mine again not only will you die but you'll die a very slow, excruciatingly agonizing death." I could hear his skin begin to sizzle faintly. "Do I make myself clear?"
He looked up from the fireball to my face. His steel gray eyes held pain and something I thought I'd never see from him, fear. "Crystal clear."
I closed my hand over the fireball and smile sweetly at him. "Glad you decided to be smart for once. Now, go collect Mystique and get the hell out of this hospital."
Magneto straightened himself and walked towards the elevators. Hunter and I watched him until he disappeared into the metal square. Unable to keep my brave face up, I leaned back into Hunter for support. Understanding, he lifted me back into his arms.
We watched the nurse walk up to us. She shook her head as she patted Hunter's shoulder and stroked my hair. "Are you kids okay?"
"Yes, we're fine."
"Good, good," the nurse nodded before she yelled, "Now get Miss Leilang back to bed, young man. I don't want her out of that bed until she's properly rested."
"No problem, ma'am," Hunter grumbled. "Could do us a really big favor by keeping a Mister Eric Lehnsherr away from this room?"
"Why?"
"'Cause he's the one who put me, Amber and Ashley here in the first place," I answered more than slightly annoyed. The nurse nodded and said she'd make sure the security personnel knew. "Thank you."
Hunter carried me into the room and sat me down gently on the bed. He then sat behind me and pulled into his arms. Placing a kiss in my hair, he asked, "You okay?"
"Yeah, I'm just tired. How's Amber doing, Darren?"
"She's asleep," he replied. "So I can assume Ashley's healed now, right?"
"You assume correctly."
"She's awake and talking Tobias's ear off. She looks perfectly fine," Hunter added. He flipped on the television and changed the channel to Fox Sports World. Men's soccer highlights were flashing across the screen. "How do you think New England's do against the Metro Stars?"
"I don't know nor do I care," Darren commented. "Baseball is so much better than soccer."
"What?! Are you daft?! Baseball-"
I smiled as I tuned out the guys' debate on which sport was better. Normally, I would have joined in on the fun, but at the moment I wanted to sleep. I repositioned myself and buried my face in Hunter's shirt. Inhaling his scent, I drifted off to a content sleep.

Five years later.
Turning on the monitor, I signed onto the computer in my home office. In a second, an IM popped up from Darkened Sky. It was Milani. My eyes lit up as I sent her back a greeting. A year after the whole prophecy thing, Milani and Hunter moved to Hawaii when she accepted the offer to play for Hawaii's pro-soccer team. They still live there, now practically 5,000 miles from my home- Montana. Ashley naturally moved in next door, with Tobias of course.
"Whatcha doin'?" my daughter asked running into the room. Noel's dark brown hair fell into her light silver eyes as they danced with the mischief of a three-year-old. Little white angel wing adorned her back.
I smiled down at her. "I'm talking to Aunt Milani."
~ I am in no way related to *you*! ~ Milani shouted in my head.
Laughing, I thought to her, ~ You sure act like a sister though. How are you? ~
~ Fine, I suppose. I just got out of the hospital. ~
~ What?! ~
~ Chill out, Silverwing. Both Hunter and I are fine. We had a baby girl. ~
A picture of the newborn entered my head. The girl had most of the same features as her mother including the black hair but her eyes were hunter green like her father. ~ Aww, she cute. What's her name? ~
~ Keket. ~
~ Ashley and Tobias have yet to have a child. ~
~ They're still young in their own unique, scary way. ~
I laughed. ~ You guys should visit us. We miss you! Darren always says he wants to see his best friend and fight about sports. ~
~ Soon, Amber, we'll visit soon. ~ Milani paused for a minute. ~ I'm sorry I couldn't be there for your wedding. ~
I could feel a hint of regret in her thoughts. ~ We've been through this, Milani. It's alright. I'm not angry or hurt so you shouldn't be either. Besides, Ashley can fill you in on everything down to the last detail. ~
~ 'Kay. Listen, I gotta go. Keket's hungry. ~
~ Alright ~ I smiled. ~ Call me soon, okay? ~
~ Sure, why not? ~ she replied before breaking contact.
I picked up my little girl and carried her downstairs. "Okay, Noel, now we get to wait for Daddy to come home."
"Daddy's already home," Darren's voice rang from the kitchen.
"Daddy!" Noel flew from my arms to Darren's. I smiled and kissed his cheek. He ruffled my bangs. I growled softly in contentment. Noel patted my head also and I laughed as I tickled her.
Mutants lived in peace with humans, Magneto and his henchmen gave up their plots and began helping Xavier teach the up and coming mutant children, and my friends, family and I are safe and happy. That's all I ever wanted.
