As Jubilee, Magma and Soundless waited for the X-Jet to find them, Poison
was in a spot of bother herself:
Poison was getting very nervous and she was starting to sweat. She hated small spaces, and was claustrophobic. She started to shiver and g into a daze, but luckily before long the tubes disappeared and, like Magma and Jubilee, poison and the other people got pushed into a room, but there was no air vent. She looked at the other people in there with her, one boy and another girl.
"H.hello, I'm Joanne or Hawkeye, I have brown wings and can morph into a hawk" Joanne smiled.
"Well I'm Jake or projectile. I can project images, that look real but really aren't" Jake said shyly. They both looked at poison waiting for her to introduce herself.
"I'm Poison, and I can turn into a poison cloud and shoot poison from my fingers" Poison said smiling slightly.
"So we better find a way to get out then, any ideas?" Joanne asked looking at the completely empty room.
"Oh there wont be time for ideas, you'll be in a little drop," The speaker said, there was a short cackle followed by a clicking. As the clicking sound was made, it was as if the floor just disappeared, but in fact it just flew into the wall. Below was what looked like an endless pit? As fast as they could, they all tried to hand onto something, but there was nothing. Out of nowhere, Hawkeye changed into a hawk form and flew over to projectile, she grabbed onto him, piercing his skin with her claws. Poison changed into the cloud and floated to the top of the room.
"That's a bit of a suck up" The speaker boomed again. And all of a sudden, there was a huge force pulling them down the pit. With no trouble, Poison got sucked in first, and then projectile followed by Hawkeye. All Poison remembered was swirling into a black vortex like hole, and then spinning out of control.
Poison lay on the floor. She didn't know if she was awake or unconscious. She felt someone shaking her, and just about managed to open her eyes. She saw the small face or Joanne looking at her. She stood up and took a look around
"Before you ask, I have no idea where we are, its just this empty desert place" Joanne said, as Jake walked up behind her. She took a look around. Joanne was right; they were in an empty desert, with nothing but cacti and sand dunes.
"So, we better start walking" Poison said, pointing into one direction. They started walking, and Poison brought up the subject of some of her adventures with Jay, Jubilee and Magma. She talked about everything that had happened to them. And before they knew it, it had been about 2 hours. Then all of a sudden they heard a strange growling sound. They continued to walk, and the growling got louder. Then they passed a rock and a load of Wolves ran at them. Before they could do anything, the wolves completely surrounded them. It was Poisons next adventure. She shot Poison cloud at all the wolves she could, knocking quite a few f them out. Hawkeye morphed into her hawk, and flew at the wolves, pecking and scratching them. But when ever they hit some of them, more seemed to come. Then Projectile had an idea, he projected a large gorilla, an elephant and a tiger. They fake animals stood in front of the three, and most of the wolves started to back off. Some of them stayed to fight, but while they were concentrating on the animals, Poison shot some Poison at them.
"We better get out of here, in case they bring more friends" Jake said as the three stepped over the knocked out wolves and quickly walked away. Jake had still kept animal projections up, just to stop any more animals attacking them. Then before they could walk any further, the scenery seemed to flicker, and it changed, to an arctic place. It seemed that now they were standing in the arctic.
"That's weird, I thought he were just in the desert" Poison said, looking puzzled.
"We were" Jay said. His face was looking very nervous, and wondered why there was scenery changes every so often.
"Well we better start moving before something else finds us," Joanne said. She was pointing behind her, and about a mile off, was a pack of polar bears, obviously looking for food.
"Oh no, quick lets go" Poison said. She was walking faster than she usually did. Jake and Joanne were struggling to keep up with her, and before long the polar bears were gaining on them.
"We cant out run them, we need to right, but my animal projections wont work. You two try t keep them away and ill think of something" Jake shouted. He ran behind Joanne and Poison, and started to think of something. Poison and Joanne were trying their best, but Poisons, Poison clouds weren't working on the polar bears, she had to shoot 3 or 4 to knock them out, and Joanne wasn't doing much better, she had to dodge out of the way from their mouths.
Then at last Jake had an idea; he ran up to the polar bears, and projected a gigantic knife above the bears. They started to whimper quietly and back off.
"Quick knows our chance" Joanne said, running past the scared looking polar bears.
Then all of a sudden, the arctic land started to flicker and swirl around in circles at their feet. Then out of nowhere, it changed to a city. There we cars everywhere and people walking down the streets. They were standing next to high office blocks and car parks full of trucks, vans and or coarse cars.
"Talk about weird" Joanne said taking a look at the sky, only to see the tops of buildings.
"Well, I guess we better start walking here then, no point standing still" Jake said looking into a dark alleyway.
Suddenly, torches of fire could be seen coming around the corner, there were garden forks and even some broomsticks.
"There they are" one man said
"They will pay for what they did," shouted a fairly young woman. Poison looked around and then noticed.
"RUN, they are trying to get us," Poison shouted, as all three ran down the dark alley.
"KILL THE MUTANTS" the mob chanted loudly. As more people walking down the streets heard what they were doing, more joined in the chanting.
"This is very old fashioned" Jake shouted, nearly falling over a tree root
"But, how did they know we are mutants? What did we do anyway?" Joanne wondered.
"I know, what they think we did, but it wasn't us" Poison said. As she was running, Poison pointed to a building in front of them. It was burning down and the mob must of thought it was they who did it. Obviously Jakes shoes weren't built for grip, and when they turned a corner of the alley, his foot gave way, and he fell to the ground headfirst.
"Jake" Joanne screamed, running back to him, with Poison not far behind. They bent down, and helped him up, but the mob was faster than they had thought. Jake stood up and the mob had surrounded them. Nothing was said, by what the mob called the mutants.
"Lets takes them down, lets behead them," A man said. The other people nodded in agreement, and the three got carefully picked up, and slung on someone's shoulder.
"I don't think this is the year we know, it sounds and looks like the 50s" Joanne whispered. Jake wiped some blood from his face, from when he fell over and nodded.
After about five minute, the mob walked into what looked like a prison. The people carrying the three threw them into a cell and slammed the door shut.
"The beheading will be tomorrow" One man said. He laughed ad closed the door of the prison. None of the three said anything, they just sat there. All except Joanne. She was walking around the cell, thinking of something.
"I've got it, I know why the land keeps changing. Think, if we keep going to different places it has to be virtual reality, nothing is real but we can still get hurt. That's why. That lab guy is changing the scenery, but we just have to figure how to get out" Joanne said taking a breath or air after her long speech. Poison and Jakes face both lit up, but how could they get out.
"My my, how clever we are" A speaker boomed. Poison looked up and smirked slightly
"I have an idea, help me find out where the speaker is, if we can find the speaker and hit it, the scenery will change back to normal" Poison whispered looked for something black, which looked like a speaker. She ran over to the bed and looked underneath it, and sure enough. There was the speaker.
"Your luck just ran out" Poison shouted, she shot a Poison cloud at the speaker and the Scenery started to flicker. Then all of a sudden it turned back to the sae room they were in before the scenery changed.
"Nice work, but how will you get out of that room" The lab man laughed.
"Oh we will, don't worry" Joanne laughed loudly. They all searched around for a way to get out.
"Well, it has to be the door, an ideas?" Jake asked
"I got one, I have more strength when I have my wings out, I can try and kick the door down" Joanne said, letting he wings flap freely. She flew into the air and flew at the door feet first. It took her a couple of goes t kick it down, but she did. They ran out and saw the lab man standing there
"How did you get out?" he asked looking confused and nervous.
"Wouldn't you like to know" Poison laughed, she turned into her purple cloud. She floated into the machinery and out. All of the machines and buttons began to blow up and the machines fell apart. The three left the man laying on the floor moaning. They ran out and waited for the X-men to find them, shooting their powers into the air before hand.
Meanwhile at the institute:
All the X-Men apart from rogue, Night crawler and Shadow cat were in cerebro. Magma, Soundless and Jubilee were also in there looking for their friends.
"I Just found some more mutants, I'm going to look into it, don't move" Professor said. He closed his eyes and a large screen showing Joanne, Jake and Poison sitting down on the ground.
"Its Poison" Jubilee said jumping up ad down, Magma doing the same.
"And Jake and Joanne" Soundless said. The others gave her a confused look.
"They are my friends, ill tell you where we were when they get here," Soundless said. The others giving a sigh of relief
"But we still haven't found Jay yet, were could he be?" Magma wondered
"Ok, us X-Men will be going out to find Poison and the others, I am putting the institute on lockdown. No one gets in, apart from us and no one gets out. You have enough food and you will have to amuse yourselves. But soundless I want you to come with us ok?" Professor said, as the other X- Men walked away and Soundless followed. Jubilee and Magma walked out afterwards.
"Wow, we haven't had a lock down for ages, lets go see the other and tell them, m sure they will have something for us to do" Jubilee sighed, walking into the rec. room where everyone else was. It wet quiet as they walked in and sat down on the sofa. After a short while the window became metal and so did the door, so no one could get in or out, unless you were telepathic.
Poison was getting very nervous and she was starting to sweat. She hated small spaces, and was claustrophobic. She started to shiver and g into a daze, but luckily before long the tubes disappeared and, like Magma and Jubilee, poison and the other people got pushed into a room, but there was no air vent.
