Here's the next chapter!
Chapter Five: Project Meteor X26
The scent of chloroplast models and metal cleaned tools shrouded around the facility as Doctor Mayberry entered a darkened area. The only sources of light were the glowing neon tubes that contain each weapon of their experiments. Only two of them were successful. I, was one of the backups and first weapon created. Weapon X. The other weapon that was a backup, Weapon XR76 was a complete failure when he was murdered in a nuclear bombing in Africa. Mayberry was actually concentrating on the greatest weapon in the profession of bio chemistry and human technology. The young girl in the widest tube in the middle back. The rumor was that she was kidnapped from her hometown in Florida because she had a great power hidden within herself. She too, was a mutant like the rest of us. The girl was known as Project Weapon Meteor X26, the most dangerous and most secretive weapon known throughout the history.
Today was one of those days when Doctor Mayberry and his assistant Natasha would get us out of the neon green chambers and let us train. This day was a specific date that changed everything about the weapons. Mayberry first released me, then X21, then X26. Afterwards, Natasha made us put on our training outfits and went out to the physical study room where we all worked out and trained our powers. But today, I got some time off to go around the laboratory. But sadly enough, X21 and X26 had to be used for an experiment.
Mayberry led X21 into the black light room for training and experimenting while Natasha and X26 watched at the invisible window high above them. The whole time as the experiment became more brutal each time, I would hear X26 whimper to herself and cringe whenever a scream was heard. When X21 became motionless and his heart rate came to a complete stop, her eyes glittered wildly with mixed emotions. She didn't know whether or not to feel sad, upset, or nothing. After all, the doctor acted like she had no feelings being the greatest "weapon". I figured it was the word "weapon" that made him think that. Weapon was an inanimate object. But this girl wasn't. She was a living breathing human being.
Five minutes after Mayberry's other assistants dragged X21's motionless body out of the facility to the failure experiment floor in the basement, Natasha told X26 to go inside. At that very moment, X26, for the first time, had broke out in tears in front of Natasha and Mayberry. It wasn't the first time for me. I would hear her in her sleep crying and mumbling words angrily. As X26 cried and started to race off, Natasha held her into a headlock, putting her to a complete stop. I watched them from as corner as X26 calmly gave up and agreed to go inside the room. Mayberry had different plans for X26 though. He pressed a couple buttons starting the "mutant attack system sequence". X26 stood in the middle of a black room not knowing what was happening until she saw guns pointing out of the corner with several pistol shots and laser pointers. I didn't know if Mayberry told her to or not, but like a reflex, X26 raised her hands, releasing a dark gravity force to crush the guns into abnormal shapes or even dust. After an hour of this training, X26 fainted in the middle of the room, stopping the sequence immediately. Natasha raced out of the booth and came to X26's side to help her up. Suddenly, the strangest thing happened. X26 was suddenly surrounded by a darkened shadow and floated towards the booth's glass screen where Mayberry evaluated. When she opened her eyes, they were a fierce purple color that could scare even the bravest of men with the wickedest grin that a demon would have. Her hair floated upwards wildly as she raised her hands against the glass. Mayberry quickly dropped her documents from his hands and started for Natasha in the room. Sweat trickled down the doctor's forehead as his eyes scanned every movement X26 was performing. His eyes flinched and widened when he saw something coming from X26's back. They looked like black demonic like wings that a Diablo would own as a bright black ball of gravity was forming right at the palm of her hand.
"X26! I command ya' to stop this once!" shouted Natasha.
Of course, that didn't help. It just made X26 release the energy, blasting the entire facility into a large gravity barrier. By the time this had happened, I had already escaped. As I walked towards the forest, I turned back and saw the facility being sucked into itself. It was formed into a black hole. From the black hole was a strange familiar form that swiftly flew upward from the hole. It was X26 with her demon black wings that were now black feathers, molting from the original pair. But as the facility was finally corrupted and exploded, X26 started to fall straight to the ground beside the facility. I raced over as quick as possible to grab X26 from falling to her death. When I did catch her, she just laid there motionless for a second then opened her eyes widely. Instead of purple, they glowed a turquoise blue. X26 stood up as her wings flapped, releasing several more loose black feathers. I froze quickly when she turned to me, thinking she would attack me.
"Thank you." She whispered with a smile.
I just looked at her. "Your welcome."
She quickly removed her attention from me and looked towards the woods with a hatred look and mumbled something under her breath. With another flap of her wings with a high jump, X26 flew off with the speed of a shooting star. I gotta admit, X26 was truly the scariest weapon I've seen besides Apocalypse and the Sentinels. But she was also the sweetest kid I've met before half-pint and the others.
When the explosion finally reached the newspapers and the rest of the media, which was only in two days, it had tons of information. But none of it included the weapons. So I decided to go and investigate on what the doctors were planning to do with Project Meteor X26 since she seemed more of a threat than all their weapons combined. All I found at the site was a couple documents that were read like this:
Part One of Operation: Weapon X
-Create or find clones or similar types to original -Discover their differences and learn of their abilities -Put through training and experiment activities - (Scribbled out)
Another document I found that proved useful was Doctor Mayberry's journal and records.
August 7th
Objective found and captured. Like the others said, this mutant was truly a great threat to mankind. Setting the record of destroying ten villages during an escape from Florida to Africa with an abnormal balance of gravity.
August 8th
We finally found out what the mutant's ability is. This mutant is capable to turning gravity into her own, creating voids, black holes. The mutant can also summon upon meteors, shooting stars, comets, and etc which includes also controlling gravity's capacity, volume, dimensions, and growth. Even power. Since this has proved the mutant to be destructive, we placed her in the best tank we have that included an anti-gravity barrier, fiber glass, and invisible steel walls.
August 9th
Today is supposedly the mutant's birthday. Thanks to Natasha, we discovered a little more personal information of the mutant. She's 14, has an older brother, and her favorite holidays are the 4th of July and Valentine's Day. But that is all we can get from the mutant. Also again, the mutant has proved her strength and ability, destroying half of the building and suffocating three assistants with her abilities.
December 26th
After a long rough information search of mutant capabilities, we have discovered that this mutant is equal to even the "greatest mutant Apocalypse that existed long ago". We have now named the mutant; Project Meteor X26 or Meteor X26. We are planning to hunt down her brother who too is a mutant that manipulates earth movement with ease.
January 5th
We have sent some of our earlier weapons to capture Meteor X26's brother. Sadly, they have failed and became corrupt. After a long meeting in the conference room, we decided to only hold Meteor X26 for captivity thinking only having more people like herself or even her family members to invite our demises within a thirty second time limit.
January 6th
A storm has cancelled all of our meetings and experiments with Meteor X26. But it just seems oddly strange how X26 has been quiet today. Usually she would try to break free with her gravitational powers or maybe cry a little. She would even have conversations with Natasha. I must go now. I have to get as much sleep as I can for the big meeting tomorrow.
January 7th
The meeting was outstanding! My fellow scientists have decided that Weapon Meteor X26 is a brilliant weapon to use to extinguish the rest of the mutant population. We're planning on sending her out on February 1st to rampage the world's mutants.
Too bad for Doctor Mayberry though. On February 1st, the day X26 was supposed to be sent out to demolish all mutants in the world; she had rampaged over the facility and neighboring buildings, slaughtering all the doctors. But despite X26's hatred for the scientists, she let one person escape. The only person she had been capable to make contact to; Natasha. **************
"Natasha?"
"Yes?"
"Have you gotten a letter from him yet?"
Natasha shook her head slowly. "No." she sighed. "I miss him."
"I'm sorry."
"No don't be." Natasha stood up and walked over to X26 where she sat on the steel step way. "But you could do me a favor."
"A favor?" X26's eyes widened.
Natasha placed a hand on X26's hand that lay still on a cold bar. "If I let you go, will you find him and tell him I love him?"
X26 bent down to see Natasha's face. Tears streamed down her eyes.
"I promise Natasha."
"You do? But after what we put you through..."
"Nope, this is my only chance of escaping this hell hole. So I promise you, that I will track him down."
***********
After the whole rampage incident, word came out that Natasha was murdered back in her hometown near Alice Springs. Sadly, she never got to see her family before she could even make it through the door. Since Natasha's murder, X26 went off to find the murder and came upon Magneto who offered to help reunite her with her last family member, and find out who was the murderer.
And that's the end of this chapter everyone! And bet you're connecting with what's what huh? Heh, I'm starting to like this more and more! Reviews would be nice. (
