Disclaimer: I do not own any of the X-Men so don't sue me `cause I have no
money either way. And once this story develops a plot-it will belong to me.
Kay, this is my first fic on X-men (besides a pass-a-long with my friends so it doesn't count-- and this is kind of based on my character from that story so if you are writing in that pass-a-long then you'll see some similarities) and Rayne Harman is my original character (as is Joshua Marsters)-- so please don't steal. And sorry my chapters are too short and I'm sorry if it sucks. Please leave a review and let me know if something should be changed.THANKS!

Chapter One: Blood
Rayne's eyes opened with a start. She had to admit that she wasn't at all used to sleeping in an abandoned warehouse, even after five years of being a runaway. She brushed a few strands of her natural colored silvery-blue hair out of her face as her quicksilver eyes refocused to her dark surroundings. She looked at the scattered teens around her-- all of them were runaways, and all of them young mutants struggling to stay alive in a world full of people who hated them.
A few feet away (they all preferred to keep their distance after an incident involving a girl waking up from a bad dream and burning a few surrounding kids,) her friend, Joshua, sat finishing off a bottle of cheap liquor. She and Josh had been friends ever since they had met four years ago when they were both fourteen and running away from a group of hunters. Joshua had saved her life, and she had stuck by him ever since.
"Hey Josh," Rayne said moving a closer to him, but carefully staying away, she didn't want to shock him. Her powers still weren't that controlled and every now and then, her electro kinesis went haywire and hurt people around her.
The boy looked up at her, bright blue eyes clouded at the moment as he smiled slightly in her direction. He was a decent looking boy, clean cut face that at the moment had brown stubbles on his chin from the lack of a razor, framed by light brown hair that he wore long at the moment.
"Hi," Joshua said before taking another swig from the bottle then offered it to her." Want some?" Rayne took the offering and gulped down two large sips and then handed it back for him to polish it off. Her throat burned, and she grimaced-- she loved alcohol. It was one of the best solutions to her problems. It made her forget, and it made her reality fade.
"How long d'you wanna stay here, love" Josh said as he threw the bottle across the room, smashing against the wall. "It seems pretty safe for now but it won't take long for someone to notice a bunch of teenagers shacked up in this hell hole."
Rayne looked at Josh and then back to the others who were scattered around the large room. She wondered what it would have been like if there was no mutant `problem,' if they had grown up as `normal' teenagers. She could bet that more than half of them wouldn't be here.
"Yeah, a few more days then? Where would you wanna go next? Should we leave the state altogether or.." Her voice was cut off by a loud crashing noise. All the windows seemed to implode and dozens of man dressed in all black entered the room.
"Hunters," she snarled, throwing her jacket off and concentrating on herself, attempting to harness one of her powers. She grabbed Joshua and they both disappeared.
One of the hunters looked around confusedly, Rayne held back a chuckle. This had to be her favorite `gift,' the power to turn invisible. But, it was unpredictable since she had never truly figured out how to control it, so she knew, as did Josh, that they had little time to escape.
As they made their way towards the stairs, Rayne noted that some mutants were running away while others fought the hunters, hoping to rid the world of single-minded fools who hated them as much as they hated the hunters. Suddenly, Rayne was pushed roughly to the ground as a bullet whizzed past her.
"JOSH!" She scrambled to her knees and crouched beside him, swearing to herself that she did not notice the moment when her `power' stopped working. She traced the source of the gushing blood to Josh's right abdomen. From her quick examination, she could tell that without proper medical attention-- which they definitely did not have the money for, he would die. A few solitary tears escaped her eyes and she combed a shaky hand through his hair, as she concentrated on the five hunters closing in on her. They had put away their guns thinking that she would be caught off- guard and therefore be an easy capture. Turning around she flashed a toothy smile, and raised her arms as electricity coursed through her body.
