AN: Sorry for the wait, but I've been busy with school and a small job
hunt. Also, this chapter is extremely sappy you've been warned. Actual
characters will be introduced in later chapters; right now it's all about
Kennedy.
Disclaimer: I don't own x-men, I do, however, own Kennedy, so BACK OFF
SHE'S MINE!!!!! Uh. woops, I mean, on! To the next chapter!
~*~*~*~Chapter 2~*~*~*~
Kennedy was furious. Her stupid family had just kicked her out of her stupid house and her stupid brother was even worse, he made her sicker than she could ever make him. She couldn't believe them! All because she was a little, okay, a lot different, they might as well not be family at all! Yeah, that was it, she didn't need them, and she'd live on her own and be just fine. Stupid not family in their stupid not home!
Kennedy could already feel her tendrils pushing through her fingertips, but this time, rater than fighting them back, she decided to take advantage of her unique ability.
It wasn't the most elaborate scheme ever, she admitted to herself, but she really didn't seem to car all that much as she tore the support beams from the porch overhang and the snapped in half like toothpicks. She had to smile as the tendrils slammed right through the pavement in the driveway and began to tear it up like it was dirt. Kennedy was stunned, she had no idea that these things were so strong, and then she couldn't help but wonder what kinds of marks they may have made on her not brother back at school. Then she thought of what marks they could make on the bastard once he got home.
It was well past midnight when her "brother", Jonathan, got home and Kennedy was on the roof, waiting. She didn't even let him get halfway up the path to the door before she pounced on him with far more force that she even knew she had. With the flick of a wrist and one strong tendril, Jonathan was sent flying and crashed straight through the closed garage door.
"Hello brother dear" Kennedy growled through her newfound fangs, and with a fierce, animalistic hiss, she was holding him down and beating him for all she was worth, which was quite a lot with the enhanced strength given by the strength of her tendrils. Although she thought that she was having a good time, she couldn't shake the thought that it was all too weird. Why wasn't he fighting back? Why isn't he struggling or screaming? Why isn't he at least trying to stop her? She took a moment to scream at him, tell him to fight back, and stop being a coward, but before she could even form the words in her mouth he said something that seemed to make everything go silent and all Kennedy heard was, a labored, "I'm sorry."
She couldn't believe it! That little bastard just apologized! She was beating him to a bloody pulp and he apologized to her! She wanted it to be a trick, she wanted him to lash out and start beating her the way she beat him. Instead he did the one thing she was hoping he would never do, but they both knew it was exactly what she needed.
He held her. She wasn't some freak, just another mutant plaguing society. She was his baby sister and nothing would ever change that, not even their parents. Kennedy sat still in his arms for a good 2 minutes before she finally broke down and cried. It had been a really rough day. The 2 of them sat there in the rubble that was the garage and they both knew that they would be there for each other forever. And as they both sat there together in silence, Jonathan's wounds, unnoticed by both of them, slowly began to heal. Apparently Kennedy wasn't the only mutant in the family. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ So, what do you all think? Review already, if I don't get reviews then I don't write as much for my "oh so adoring fans" (you know you love me!) just don't be too harsh, ok? This is my first fic after all. Just a heads up, next chapter I'm going to try to introduce the actual show characters! ::gasps:: just don't get your hopes up, I'm still not sure how I'm going to do it.
