Part 2:- The Truth Will Out.
The flight back to the mansion was taking way to long for Spark's liking. She sat by John, who lay spawned full length on the seats in the back, having slipping into a restless slumber a few minutes before. She let her gaze wander away from John's body and over to where Rogue and Bobby sat.
"Are you two still going out with each other?" she asked suddenly, braking the quiet that had settled between them. Rogue and Bobby looked at each other then at Spark in amazement.
"Sorry." Spark said, blushing slightly. "It's just that John has said so much about you that I feel like I know you."
"I suppose John told Magneto everything too." Bobby said harshly, ignoring the question for the time being. Spark shook her head, a smile curling on her top lip.
"No, not really. He wouldn't tell Magneto a thing. It made Magneto very angry..." she trailed off, shivering slightly at the memory. Bobby and Rogue exchanged confused glances, why wouldn't John tell his new ally everything he knew? There was no time to ask this though, as the plane reached the mansion.
~~~
Once inside, there had been a hive of activity. John had been whisked off to the medical center, Spark close behind. The other four had headed up to Professor X to tell him what had happened. Rogue placed the serum 'P' down on the table in front of him. Professor X looked slightly worried.
"He wasn't after this after all?" he asked, his eyebrows drawn together. Rogue shook her head.
"Why did you think Magneto wanted this Professor?" Scott asked, his voice and body unreadable as always.
Rogue had always thought it was because you couldn't see Scott's eyes. Eyes told you so much about the person, that without them you had no indication of what that person was really like.
Take Bobby for instance. Form the moment she'd seen him, looking into his blue eyes, she had know that this was a person you could be safe with. It was only after they had been dating for a few months that Rogue saw the ice in his eyes. It made sense really, after all Bobby's power was ice. Bobby was so cold, too cold, though he himself, had no idea of that.
John on the other had had fire in his eyes. When she had first seen him they had sparked with danger and the warning that if you got too close to him you could get burned. So she had chosen the safe guy. So why did her heart brake when she found out John had left. And why did she feel angry when ever she thought of John and Spark standing next to each other? Rogue shook herself out of her confusing thought and focused what was going on in front of her.
"I had been informed that this was what he was after by... a friend." The Professor said.
"We really thought he was after the serum." a voice said from the doorway. Spark stood there, her eyes fixed on The Professor.
"As we were flying to the lab, Magneto found out about something else, something more important than Serum P."
"It was you, wasn't it?" Bobby said in amazement. "It was you who told The Professor about the serum."
"Not me." Spark said, brushing her blonde hair out of the way of her face. "John. We were members of the brotherhood and it was our choice but he was still loyal to the X-men. If there was ever a plan to hurt you he managed to send warning to Baldie." she glared at The Professor as if daring him to take issue with her name for him.
"If John was loyal to us he should never have joined the brotherhood." Rogue said.
"You just don't get it do you." Spark snapped. "John didn't want to join the brotherhood he-" she stopped suddenly, as if she had been on the verge of reveling a great secret.
"Why did you join the brotherhood?" The Professor asked. Spark flashed a grin at him.
"You tell me." she tilted her head to the right. "Oh that's right, you can't. Tough brake."
"What? Professor what does she mean?" Scott asked. The Professor kept his eyes on Spark as he answered.
"She appears to have some sort of mental block on her mind that protects her from me."
"Lucky me." Spark murmured.
"It feels..." Professor X carried on as if she had never spoken.
"Familiar?" Spark asked. "It should." the smile dropped from her face, to be replaced by a snarl. "It's the same block that's on part of John's mind. Do you have any idea what you almost did with your killing all the mutants stunt?" she yelled, her voice reaching fever pitch. Bobby had followed the conversation with a puzzled look on his face.
"John can't have some sort of mind block. It would require a powerful telepath to create that and John doesn't have that power." he looked back and forth between The Professor and Spark, only to find that Spark had gone.
"Where did she go?" Storm said. The next second she had returned, John by her side.
" -an they know about the mind block!" John was yelling. He was clean now, the blood washed off his face, the buries treated with some kind of cream. His left arm was in a sling. He looked round at the five mutants staring at them before narrowing his eyes and looking back at the teleoprter in front of him.
"What have I said about teleporting while someone is talking?" Spark shrugged, completely nonplussed by the anger radiating from her friend.
"Deal."
"Fine." he slumped down on a empty seat. Taking out his liter he began to flick it open and close, a habit he had never managed to out grow.
Click... Click... Click...
"The mind block is artificial." John said.
"The thing Magneto took was files detailing every sick thing that happened at that lab in the past twenty years." Spark jumped in with.
Click... Click... Click...
"We knew that we had to stop Magneto getting those files so it meant fighting him and in effect helping you." Spark continued.
"What was going on in that lab that was so important to you?" Rogue asked. John had been watching Professor X ever since he had sat down.
"It was a lab used for experiments." John began slowly. "Experiments on mutants. A lab that The Professor knew about."
Click... Click... Click...
"I don't understand." Bobby said. Spark rolled her eyes.
"Honestly you can be so dumb! John and I have artificial mind blocks, we know about the lab, we wanted to prevent the files reaching Magneto. Put it together boy."
Click... Click... Click...
"You mean..." Storm started, a horrific idea coming to her. John snapped his lighter shut and stood up.
"We were experimented on."
~~~
Magneto flicked through the burnt files, cursing under his breath at the idiotic boy who had done so much damage. There were only a few files that had survived the burning intact and most of them dealt with mutants that hadn't survived what had been done to them. Magneto was about to throw the whole lot away in disgust when a half burnt file caught his eye. Maybe this wasn't such a loss after all. Maybe he could use this to his advantage. To be more precise it was the name at the top that caught his eye.
"Allardyce, St. John"
Magneto smiled as he looked at the photo under the name. The boy may have been only ten but there was no mistaking the glare and face. A young Pyro stared defiantly back at him from the photo...
