Disclaimer: Chapter 1 holds the secret. (I no, I'm lazy and don't change
this part).
A/N: Okay kiddies, in case you haven't figured it out, what I do when
starting to type a new chapter is take the previous one, change the chapter
number and name, and delete everything but the author's notes and
disclaimer. Just telling you so you don't think I'm a complete idiot when
you see how much I repeat myself in these two sections. Thank you all again
for your replies!! E-mail with ideas and any other comments at
jupitergurl02@hotmail.com are STILL appreciated! (I haven't had anyone
respond to this yet. sobs)
Yay! Chapter seven! Did you ever think it would even last this long? Well, I've been getting ideas left and right, but they all pertain to chapters yet to be written or at least yet to be typed. I know, I'm so slow, but I have to spend SOME time with my family, don't I? Don't answer that.
Thank you, Utena, for telling the lovely reviewers out there juts what we look like. *grumble* not sort... *grumble* Um, lesse, that's about it. Thank the reviewers again and now, for those of you who were wondering when the brotherhood would make their grand entrance, on with the story!
Chapter 7, Fay [1]
Fay was leisurely walking along the path in the woods. She sighed, bored with the repetitiveness of simply walking along, seeing nothing interesting.
"This is so stupid," she finally said aloud. "How am I supposed to get an army of furry woodland creatures to help me take over the world when there are no furry woodland creatures!?" With this, she stepped off the path and, after concluding that she was not sucked into an alternate universe, proceeded to make a path of her own through the thick forest. It wasn't long before she heard a rustling ahead of her. She stopped, watching the bushes silently for a moment, then she ducked behind a tree with an evil grin on her face as the large cat-like man with long dirty blond hair entered her view.
"Neko..."[2] she whispered softly so that she wouldn't be discovered. As the man continued to walk, Fay followed at a close distance, but not close enough to be heard. She didn't want to scare off her new minion. "Fluffy!" she whispered urgently. A black form materialized beside her. "Good demon. Now, I want you tot help me keep track of the catboy, okay?" she told the ominous mass of formless energy. She started after the 'catboy' and the demon followed her. After a while, both parties stopped. The man sniffed the air and turned back. Fay panicked.
"Fluffy! Distract him!" she whispered. The demon disappeared and a loud rustling was heard far away from them. Bird flew up in response. Fay smiled as the man turned in that direction, then continued on his way. When they finally reached the building, Fay was tired and anxious. She had Fluffy cloak her as she followed the man inside and slipped a collar around his neck. The collar was secured to a metal chain, the other end of which was found in Fay's hand.
"What the-?" he growled, pulling, but Fay had the strength of the demon on her side to counter that of the feral man.
"Yay!" said Fay triumphantly, handing the chain to her demon. "Now, show us to your leader!" Fay demanded. She smiled, "I always wanted to say that."
"Who the hell are you?" asked the man angrily. He had decided that resistance was futile, but still kept the chain taut.
"My name is Fay. This is Fluffy. Who're you?"
"Sabertooth," said the man, glaring. Fay suddenly saw a new force being exerted on the leash as the chain stretched toward an older-looking man wearing a helmet and a cape. Fay gasped in awe.
"Omigosh! Gandalf! [3] Can I have your autograph? Please?" she pleaded, rushing toward him as the metal chain melted to form a ball which circled around them.
"What do you mean?" the Gandalf look-alike asked in utter confusion and slight annoyance.
"Here!" Fay said, handing him a pad of paper and a pen from her purse. He sighed, very annoyed now, and signed the paper as 'Magneto' with a flourish of the pen, then handed both pen and paper back to Fay. She smiled, not looking at it, and he glared.
"Now, how did you get here and why are you here? The security cameras should have noted that you didn't belong and attacked," he stated, glaring at her angrily.
"Oh, that's easy," she said with a keen smile, "I was looking for creatures to help me take over the world and I followed the kitty here," she said, pointed to Sabertooth. He glared. "Then, when he opened the door, I had Fluffy cloak me and then I had him get me a leash and, ta da! Here we are!"
"I am not a kitty!" snarled Sabertooth.
"Of course you are, Sabertooth," said Magneto.
"Nya nya!"[4] taunted Fay.
"Now, if you'll excuse me," said Magneto as the metal formed cuffs around Fay's wrists. She jumped in surprise as her hands were forced behind her back and the metal grew together, restraining her. Magneto continued as if nothing was happening. "But we can't allow you to tell the world about us, now can we? Therefore, you must be... dealt with."
"Hey! Let me go!" Fay demanded.
"I think not," said Sabertooth. Fay growled.
"Fluffy! Attack!" she yelled. The black matter materialized once more and surrounded Sabertooth. Magneto blinked, confused.
"What is that stuff?" he demanded of Fay.
"That stuff," Fay corrected, "Is Fluffy, my pet demon."
"Help!" cried Sabertooth.
"You can summon demons?" demanded Magneto, sensing an opportunity. Fay rolled her eyes at him.
"Of course. How else would someone as evil as Clinton be elected president? Besides, you didn't think I would try world domination alone, did you?" Magneto blinked.
"Well then, Miss Fay," he said with a grin, "What do you say we make a deal, hmm? Say, you join me, and I let you..." he trailed off. What did he have that a teenage girl could possibly want?
"Go and keep Sabertooth as my evil minion kitty?" Fay suggested hopefully.
"Done," Magneto said with a smile as the cuffs melted again and returned to a silver ball once more with one motion of his hand. Fay called Fluffy back and he disappeared once more. "Now, I'll take you and show you where you'll be staying then. There are only boys there, I hope you don't mind, but you can let, uh, Fluffy, move in as well. And feel free to use your powers on anything or anyone you wish," he concluded, heading for the exit.
"Really? What about my new kitty?" she said, indicating Sabertooth.
"Yes, of course he can go, too."
"Hey!" Sabertooth growled.
"Yay!" exclaimed Fay, hugging Sabertooth around the neck. The metal formed a collar and leash once more.
"Good, now let's go," said Magneto.
"Right!" said Fay. She stood up and started chanting. A large orange mass began to form, much like the black one known as Fluffy.
"Is she retaliating?" asked Sabertooth warily.
"Haaaahhhhh!!" yelled Fay. The blob took shape slowly. It formed into a large cat with multiple legs. Magneto and Sabertooth looked very frightened. "Ta da!" said Fay, doing the V for victory sign.
"What the hell is it?" asked Sabertooth.
"I believe it would be some sort of mutilated feline..." said Magnetto, awestruck.
"Neko basu!" [5] said Fay triumphantly. The creature turned to Magneto and Sabertooth, grinning. "Well? Get in!" urged Fay enthusiastically. They slowly approached the large cat. It towered over them and it did, indeed, look like a bus. There were places seemingly cut out of each side which looked like windows and as they moved closer, a part near the head opened like a door. Magneto hesitated, pushing Sabertooth in first. Sabertooth stumbled in, a look of terror on his face as he stood up, then sat down cautiously on one of the large, furry, bench-like protrusions. Magneto, seeing that Sabertooth was safe, followed. Fay sat next to Sabertooth, grabbing the leash again as the neko basu began to run.
"Where is it taking us?" demanded Magneto, scared once more.
"To the brotherhood, of course!" said Fay.
"How does it know?" asked Sabertooth.
"It just knows," said Fay simply. After a time, the cat finally stopped. they were outside a disheveled shack in the woods. Magneto immediately recognized it as being the brotherhood residence. To call it a house was being too generous. "Is this it?" asked Fay in disgust. "This is horrible! Minions of darkness can't live here!"
"They don't," said Sabertooth, "only the brotherhood." Fay looked up in confusion as they exited the bus. Sabertooth laughed, muttering something about the brotherhood and minions of darkness being incomparable.
"Hey, yo, who's dis?" asked a short boy, crouching in the driveway of the shack. He was very dirty in appearance, his teethe yellow and his clothes splotched with God-only-knew what. Flies buzzed around his head and every once in a while, his six foot tongue would lash out and he would eat one.
"Ah, Todd," said Magneto, a bit disgusted. By then, the neko basu was nearly disappeared. "Todd, this is Fay. She will be joining you. Fay, this is-"
"Name's Toad," he said, jumping toward the group in much the way of a toad.
"Ewe..." said Fay, backing away. "You smell."
"Thanks. My monthly shower's not for another week." he informed. Fay took another step back, batting at a fly.
"Where are Pietro, Blob, and Avalanche?" asked Sabertooth.
"Oh yeah. They went to get food or somethin'," said Toad. "Hey, here they come!" he said and pointed down the dirt road. They were coming in a Jeep which belonged to Lance. They were yelling and screaming and honking the horn, laughing loudly.
"This is who I have to live with?" Fay said in shock. Then she smiled. "I can deal."
"Good, now come on. Let's pay our friends at the Xavier institute a little visit," said Magneto, smiling. Fay took Sabertooth's leash and stood up as the Jeep drew to a stop.
"Whoa, hey big guy," said Lance, hopping out of the driver's seat.
"Uh oh, are we in trouble?" asked Blob.
"Oh, of course not, boys," said Magneto. "Get back in the Jeep, we're going to show off our new warrior in a 'battle' against the institute lackeys."
"Really? What's his name?" asked Pietro.
"Fay. And I'm a she," she corrected.
"No way! We gotta live with a girl?" complained Lance.
"No, your mutant name?" asked Toad. Fay smiled, thinking a moment.
"How about Necromancer?"
"Sounds good, what can you do?" asked Todd.
"Oh, just summon demons," she said, smiling. Pietro smiled, too, gazing at her in love-struck awe. Toad elbowed him behind Fay's back as he hopped into the Jeep next to him.
"Hey, you're droolin'," he warned the taller mutant. Pietro blinked, looking toward Toad. He was smiling, showing his yellow teeth.
"Gross!" said Pietro, running as a blur of color to hide behind Magneto.
"Now, boys, you can show off for your new roommate when we go to Xavier's. Now let's go," said Magneto harshly, getting into the driver's seat of the Jeep. Everyone else piled in after him.
"So, what's this Xavier's place?" asked Fay, sounding bored. She started to pet Sabertooth's head.
"Cut it out!" he snarled angrily, pulling away. This only caused the leash to go taut.
"Boo a good kitty, Sabertooth," said Magneto. Blob looked at Sabertooth and smiled.
"Good kitty," he said.
"You don't know what the Xavier institute is? And you're a mutant? That's bad, yo," said Toad.
"Watch it, frog-boy," Fay growled, waving a hand in front of her face to disperse the stench of his breath.
"They're goody-goody guys," said Lance.
"Gross, really," said Todd, snatching a fly out of mid-air with his tongue.
"C'mon, Toad!" yelled Pietro. "Be a gentleman!"
"Yeah, she's a guest," agreed Blob, also grossed out by Toad's actions.
"No, actually I'm a permanent resident," Fay corrected.
"What!?" shouted Toad. Fay grinned evilly.
"That's right, Todd," said Magneto calmly, "Miss Fay is joining you at the brotherhood."
"Heh, maybe then we can keep it clean," said Lance.
"What? You think I'm gonna be your maid?" Fay demanded, glaring at Lance. She started to stand.
"Well, girls are better at that stuff than guys," Blob said, looking nervous by trying to be helpful to the situation.
"That's right,' said Fay matter-of-factly. "We are better, aren't we?" Lance looked sick.
"You can sit next to me, Miss Fay," said Pietro.
"Uh, thanks... I think," said Fay, sitting in the Jeep once more. She still held the leash and hence Sabertooth was dragged with her. He grumbled in annoyance.
"All right, let's go then," said Magneto, starting the Jeep and pulling out the driveway. They started off down the dirt road.
