Disc-don't own original X-Men, only Shawn, Marie, Lynx, Becky, and Rita.
A/N: Sorry for the wait, video games have complete control of my mind now, I think aliens made them just to control humans, anyway, here's the chapter that everyone's been waiting for.
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~
Marie woke up to the sound of trumpets, looking at her watch, 5 A.M. "Ugh! Way too early." Marie wiped at her face, swinging her legs over the side of the bed, almost kicking Becky in the head.
"Hey! That's my head Marie!" Becky swatted at Marie's leg, pushing it out of the way and standing up, putting on her boots as Marie jumped off her bunk, putting her boots on too. "You better start getting used to waking up this early, it happens every day."
"I'd rather not think about it." Marie yawned, standing at the foot of her bed as lieutenant Frye walked by the girls, inspecting their beds. Frye stopped at Marie's bed, running a hand over the top.
"Glad to see you can actually do something right the first time cadet Cromwell." The lieutenant sneered at Marie and moved on. "Ok, run the obstacle course then an hour of free time!"
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~
"Please Logan, lets go get Marie, we can punish her here." Rita looked around, walking with Logan in the woods.
"No Rita, she did something wrong, now she has to pay the price."
"Logan! I don't care what she did anymore, I want her back, Shawn does too, doesn't your son's happiness mean anything?"
"Yes it does, but that's not the problem right now, if we pick her up now, she'll think that she can get everything she wants if she plays her cards right."
"So send her through Logan's Run a million times, I don't care, just get my daughter back!" Rita stood in front of Logan, screaming in his face.
"Rita! Do you listen to yourself? Your babying her." Logan put his hands on Rita's shoulders.
"Yes I do Logan, and the more we argue, the worse it is for the new baby, please." Rita pleaded with him.
"Don't do this darlin', it doesn't work like that, Marie needs to learn her lesson."
"At what price Logan? She learns her lesson but hates us? I've never asked you to do anything for me Logan, I don't depend off other people like that, but now I need you. You put her in, you need to take her out."
"Fine, ok, fine." Logan raised his hands in defeat.
"Thank you so much Logan." Rita wrapped her arms around Logan's neck, kissing his cheek. "Now we have to go get her."
"Now?"
"Yes now." Rita grabbed Logan's hand, pulling him back towards the clearing where the rubble of the institute used to be, but was now cleaned off. "Shawn! Tyler!"
Rita yelled as the two boys stopped helping Hank with fixing up the mansion and walked over to Rita. "What do you want mom?"
"Wanna go pick up Marie?" Tyler dropped the 2 by 4 he was holding and jumped in the bed of Shawn's truck.
"Come on, lets go." Tyler urged the others as Shawn got in the back with Tyler, his parents getting up front, Logan driving.
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~
The girls filed out of the green double doors, jogging towards the obstacle course, as Marie caught sight of a red truck like Shawn's from the corner of her eye. "Hurry up girl, lieutenant Frye is watching you carefully and your falling behind." Marie turned her head to see Becky next to her.
"Thanks Becky." Marie jogged a little faster as she came to the obstacle course, the thing she hated the most.
"Would Marie Cromwell and Becky Conaway please report to the Commander's office."
"Uh oh." The girls looked at each other and turned around, running towards the barracks.
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~
Rita, Logan, Shawn, Tyler, and Charles sat in the office, at the last minute Charles had decided to come along as well.
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~
Marie and Becky stopped in the barracks as they quickly changed from their fatigue green to white and blue class A's. "What do you think we did?" Becky asked, as they walked over to the Commander's office. "Or, what did I do?"
"Shut up, I was just mad yesterday." The girls stopped in front of the large mahogany door and knocked as they heard a make voice telling them to come in. Marie almost gasped when she saw her family, but stopped herself as she saluted to Commander Bill Fregoso.
"It has come to my attention about your little stunt from yesterday Cadet Cromwell, lucky for you, your parents wish to take you out of the school, along with you Cadet Conaway." The Commander sat straight in his chair behind his desk.
"But sir, my parents…"
"Have okayed the leave, Professor Charles Xavier has a written and signed notice from your parents, now go and pack, you leave at 0 700 hours." The Commander watched as the girls saluted once more and walked out of his office.
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~
The girls ran all the way back to their barracks, ecstatic. "Isn't this so cool? Your coming back with me where you don't have to hide your powers." Marie said as he threw everything into her bag, not even folding it, Becky doing the same.
"I know, I never thought my parents would ok it, but I guess their tired of having a disappointment around." Becky threw the bag over her shoulder and followed Marie outside.
"Your not a disappointment, you're a mutant, and just between us, I hear they're really cool." The girls laughed as Marie's family was standing by Shawn's truck. "Shawn! Tyler!" Marie dropped her bag and hugged the boys. "I know it was you guys who got me back."
"Actually it was all Shawn." Tyler hugged Marie back, kissing her on the cheek as Becky stood in the background.
"Guys, this is Becky." Marie motioned to Becky. "Becky, this is Shawn and Tyler who you saw in the pictures, and that's my mom, Rita and my dad, Logan and the Professor."
"Hello Becky, I am Professor Xavier, though most of my students call me Professor X." Charles held out a hand as Becky shook it, leaving his hand damp.
"Sorry about that, I'm not very good at staying human." Charles raised an eyebrow at this, he knew Becky was a mutant but didn't know what her powers were.
"Becky can turn into water, and control it too." Marie said as the Professor wiped the water off his hand.
"Well, I can kinda control it, but not very well." Becky looked down, then up at Shawn, smiling.
"That's what you will learn if you decide to stay with us." Charles smiled as everyone began to get into Shawn's truck.
"We get to sit in back with mom." Shawn said, looking at Marie and Becky.
"You cant even drive your own truck?" Marie asked, climbing in the bed with Tyler, Rita, Shawn, and Becky.
"No." Shawn said, sitting against the back window as Becky sat at the other end of the truck.
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~
Marie sat on a bed the next day, watching Becky put some of her things away. "Your so lucky Becky, you get one of the rooms down here, I get the Blackbird's hanger with my family, fun fun fun." Marie said as Becky laughed at that, sitting on the bed next to Marie.
"You know Marie, your brother is way cuter then in the photo you showed me." Becky smiled, leaning against the wall.
"You like my brother?" Marie tried hard to not laugh.
"Yeah, so? He's cute."
"He's also my brother."
"Does he have a girlfriend?"
"Last time I checked he did, but I don't know about now, I'll ask him later ok?"
"Thank you so much." Becky hugged Marie as someone knocked on the door. "Come in." Becky shouted as Tyler opened the door.
"I just came to tell you that Becky has a session with the Prof. and we both have a session with Logan." Tyler said, looking at Marie as she groaned.
"I think I should have taken my chances with lieutenant Frye." Marie said as she and Becky got up.
"Least you had a choice." Tyler said as the three walked down the hall.
"Why do I have a session with Professor Xavier?"
"The Prof.? sessions with him aren't bad, he helps you to control your powers, he should be outside near the fountain, we'll take you to him before going to the danger room." Marie said as they walked towards the fountain, which was untouched by the explosion.
"What's a danger room?" Becky asked as Charles turned in his wheelchair to face the three teens.
"It's were we do our training. Most of us belong to a group called the X-Men, basically we're the good people and we fight the bad people, like Lynx."
"So your superheros?"
"You could call us that." The three stopped in front of Charles as he nodded to Marie and Tyler.
"Logan is waiting for you two in the danger room, I believe he has setup Logan's Run." Marie and Tyler groaned.
"We're going to die, we will really die." The two walked to the danger room, seeing Logan standing in the middle of the control room.
"Hello Marie, Tyler, ready?"
"No!" the two shouted in unison.
"Too bad." Logan smiled. "Activate Logan's Run." Marie and Tyler stood back to back, watching the blades coming out of the walls.
"Shit." Tyler said under his breath as he charged up a handful of trading cards, throwing them at the blades.
Marie looked around as her wings appeared on her back. "I could use some help Marie!" Tyler looked at the 4 blades coming at him.
"So could I!" Marie flew into the air, slamming her nails into one of the blades coming at her, cutting all the way through it.
Tyler backed away, sending card after card towards the blades, then just stopping. "Don't stop and leave it all up to me Tyler!" Marie yelled, clawing another blade.
"I have no choice, I'm all out of cards." Tyler back up into a wall.
"Stay away from the wall kid! That doesn't help you at all." Logan shouted down at them.
"Sorry." Tyler mumbled. "What do I do Marie, I'm still out of cards."
"Then charge the blades." Marie glanced at Tyler as she got hit in the wing with a blade. "Ahhh!" Marie screamed, flying back into the wall, hitting her head against it. Tyler stepped towards Marie as the whole session stopped, as Logan came running through the door, standing over Marie.
"Get up Marie." Logan watched Marie's hand go to her head, rubbing the back of it.
"Your so caring dad." Marie sat up, looking at her bleeding wing as the wound slowly started to heal.
"Your on punishment, I don't need to be caring." Logan grabbed her hand, pulling her onto her feet. "Go rest you two, that's enough for today." Marie and Tyler ran outside before Logan could change his mind, finding the Professor and Becky still at the fountain.
"Marie! What happened to your wing?" Rita walked up behind her daughter, looking at the black, bloody wing.
"Logan's Run happened." Marie sighed as Charles looked up at her, Ororo walking over to the group with a cloth in her hand, giving it to Rita.
"Go sit by the fountain." Marie walked to the fountain as Rita followed her, sitting on the side and dipping the cloth into the water, cleaning the blood off Marie's feathers. "Where's your father now?" Rita asked, looking up for a second before going back to Marie's wings.
"Setting up hell for tomorrow?"
"Marie, stop it."
"Sorry mother, I don't know."
"Logan is in the danger room." Everyone looked at Charles.
"Thank you Charles." Rita finished washing Marie's wing and walk towards the danger room.
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~
Logan stood in the middle of the danger room as Rita walked up behind him, putting her head on his shoulder. "Did you see what happened to your daughter?" Rita took a step back as Logan turned to face her.
"Yes, why?"
"Well I thought you'd be a little concerned if you saw your daughter with blood all over her wings, what were you doing that you couldn't help her?"
"I was watching from the controls."
"You were watching? That's all you were doing? I thought you would at least be in there with them, they're only teenagers Logan, they can't take on Logan's Run by themselves." Rita protested as Logan silenced her with a quick kiss.
"Don't worry Rita, it'll be better for them in the end if I'm not down there saving them every time something goes wrong, that's what makes us stronger."
"Us? As in mutants? Maybe that works for you Logan, but they have never tried Logan's Run before, Marie's lucky she has your healing factor, and Tyler's lucky he didn't get hurt."
"This new baby is making you very moody, have you even told Shawn and Marie yet?"
"Not yet, but I'll tell them today, I promise." Rita leaned forward, kissing Logan. "Just don't kill Marie." Rita turned and walked away, going up to look for Shawn and Marie.
Marie and Becky were sitting by the fountain, Shawn and Tyler were watching the girls. "It's your sister Shawn, stop staring." Rita said behind him as he jumped up.
"That was gross mom, don't ever say that to me again, Tyler was watching Marie."
"So you were watching Becky? What happened to Carrie?"
"She decided she would rather be popular then be with a mutant."
"I'm sorry about that Shawn, but that's what humans do, they're afraid to be with mutants, but come take a walk with me." Rita put an arm around Shawn's shoulders as they walked over to the two girls. "Marie, come with us please."
Uh oh, what did we do Shawn? Marie asked, looking at her brother.
I don't know, we'll find out.
"Whatever your thinking its wrong, your not in trouble." Rita walked with Shawn and Marie until they got to the lake, the three of them sitting on the dock. "Shawn, Marie, I have to tell you something."
"I don't have to do Logan's Run anymore?" Marie asked, hopefully.
"No, you still have to do those." Rita laughed as Marie's face dropped.
"Then, your pregnant?" Rita's head quickly turned to look at Marie.
"How'd you know?"
"You are? That's weird, I don't know how I knew, I just knew."
"That's nice mom, can I go now?" Shawn asked, standing up.
"Yes Shawn, you can go now."
"Guys are stupid." Marie said as the two of them stood up.
"Marie!" Rita watched Marie look down as Rita laughed. "Just don't let a guy hear that ok?" Marie nodded and flew back to the fountain where Becky was sitting. Marie watched as Becky's arm turned into water, then back to normal.
"Having fun?" Marie asked as she landed in front of Becky, her wings disappearing.
"No, I cant hold the shape of water for more then a second."
"Don't worry, you'll get better, trust me, now what do you say if I help you work on controlling water?" Marie asked with a smile.
"How will you do that?"
"I'll give you something to do with your control." Marie took out a bag of balloons from her pocket. "I know for a fact that Shawn hates to get his clothes wet." Marie grinned as Becky joined in with a grin of her own.
"Wont we get in trouble?"
"Not if we don't get caught."

A/N: I promise that the next chapter will have lots of Lynx in it, and I'll put it up quicker then this one.
