Well, after hours of grueling homework, I'm here to write another chapter for my…uh, two or three fans…but hey, that's good for me! Hope you all like!
The X-Men aren't mine. And I'm really jealous that somebody else owns them…
I was nervous about the X-Men coming up here. I didn't want to fight them. I don't have any experience, and I don't want to mess up if we do actually have to fight them. I was sitting around my room, tapping my foot, and fidgeting. I even pulled together that old costume of mine. The tight suit and coat and stuff like that. I wanted to go all out.
After deciding that my quiet room was unnerving, I decide to go and see if Wanda was prepared for potential battle. I knocked on her door, and waited to see if she would answer. "I don't want to talk Madison."
"Ok. But are you ready just in case? For a fight?"
"I'mreadynowgoaway," she said in a rush and jumble of words.
"Ok. I'm sorry." I walked away and headed for the stairs. I heard her door shift open, then close again. What was she doing? Nose out. She has a temper, remember? I shrugged and went to the stairs, and sat on the banister. I had to try. I pushed off with my feet, and started to slide as my hair flitted in my face. I smiled, and felt like a kid again. Doing something fun and kinda stupid. But towards the bottom, I shook a bit, and ported to escape a crash and burn. As I landed near the front door, I swept away some smoke, and stared out at the stars. It was always dark on the moon. That was depressing, but soothing in a way. I loved it here. I was extremely lucky.
"Hey, you," Sabretooth growled from behind me. "What?" I asked smartly. "I thought you said the X-Men were coming. Where are they?"
"God, keep your damn shirt on Sabs. They'll be here if Mags doesn't stop 'em."
He growled in his throat and stalked off, but at that moment, Kurt, Rouge, Kitty and Jean ported in. "Sabs!" I cried as they rushed toward me. I ported out of the way, and heard Jean tell Kurt to take me. I would make this fun. I saw Rogue and Jean head for Sabretooth and Kitty, out of the mansion. "Ah, the X-Men are here! I'm so scared!" I exclaimed with a laugh. "Madison! Please, come back to Earth vith us," Kurt called as I ported to the chandelier, him following closely. "I don't think so elf!" I called back as I dashed up the stairs. At the top, I waited for Kurt. "Oh my god, Kurt, look out!" I hollered in a panicked voice, as I pointed my finger. "Vhat?!" he cried turning to see what was there. There was nothing. But I powered up my hexes and waited for him to realize there was nothing. He turned back and began to run, but I shot the hex and he was caught by surprise. "Vha!?" he managed to cry before falling limply to the floor. I smiled and kicked him down the stairs. Wanda came from her room to see what the noise was about. "They're here."
Reinforcements entered the mansion as I walked slowly down the stairs with Wanda. She was royally pissed off. Jean and Rogue were still dealing with Sabretooth as we reached the bottom of the stairs. "Wanda, would you like to take Miss Jean over there?" I smirked. She inhaled and powered up her hexes. I ran to Kitty, as my hands glowed black. I shot at her but missed, and she shrieked. "Hey Kitty-Kat!" I called. She took a fighting stance, but still had those sad eyes. She looked so upbeat and ready to do anything, but so sad at the same time. I had to ignore that. I shook my head and shot at her again, but she phased. "Damn!" I shouted, porting behind her. She spun around to find me, but not fast enough. I shot another hex, and it her in the back. She fell to her knees, so I hit her again, this time in the back of the head. She was out.
Wanda had Jean slumped against a wall, and was now dealing with Evan and Scott. She dodged each of his laser attacks, and deflected Evan's spikes. I helped with Scott. I didn't like him that much anyway. I shot a hex at his hand, which flew away from his visor dealy, and into his other hand. He was hurt. I made it worse by shooting his arm, then his leg, so he was pretty damaged. He fell to the floor and stayed there. Wanda had slammed Evan against a wall and Sabretooth had just run in. As Wolverine had. This would be fun. I had heard from my old pal Rogue, that they were mortal enemies. Speaking of Rogue, where was she? I found out. I felt a sharp pain in my neck, and immediately ported to get away from it. It was Rogue. She had done something to me. When I saw her, she had her hand in the air, and it was glowing black. She had stolen my power.
I braced myself against a wall and watched the battle now in sequence. Wolverine and Sabretooth were really pissed at each other. At one time, Wolverine had been tossed across the room, where he landed on a table, and jumped on the running Sabretooth, and slashed his shoulder. He growled in pain, or fury, not sure, but flipped Wolverine, by grabbing his ankle. He fell flat on his face with a loud thud. I was still hurting from that drain, and was having trouble standing. And Rogue was coming right at me from behind a door.
"Alrigh' Madison. Ya need to quit and surrender."
"Ha!" I choked out, "you think I give up that easily? No freaking way!"
She shook her head and fired up more hexes. I ported to the top of the stairs, she followed. I to the kitchen, she after me. Damn, she would follow no matter what. But I knew good and well that you had to know where you were going before porting. So, I ported to the basement labs. I was chickening out. I couldn't do that. I ported back to the battle. But it was done. Magneto was there, with a beam of metal from the living room ceiling support pressed over Scott, Rogue, Jean, Evan, and Kurt. Kitty phased through and was cowering in a corner. I wonder where Storm and the Professor were. Wolverine was unconscious on the floor, and Wanda and Sabretooth were standing, dominant, and breathing hard. I was breathing pretty hard too. But I was surprised that that was it. "You all did pretty well today. Now, I will send these outside."
"You're just gonna set then out there? That's it?" I mumbled. "Yes. I know for a fact that Charles is out there. He'll pick them up. If he doesn't want to come in and defend his little army, he can pick them up like the garbage that they are." I didn't say anything. I didn't have anything to say.
So, that's what Mags did, and sure enough, a jet was there, and Storm was there to help them all on. Injured, deterred, and crestfallen. I laughed at the site of them like that. I thought they were supposed to be this trained team of superior mutants. Well, I thought and heard wrong. Too bad for them though.
Wanda had gone to her room, and Sabretooth was in the labs cleaning himself up. Licking his wounds. That wasn't very funny. I thought so. Cause he's-you know-a cat guy-he-oh come on! I headed up stairs, steaming that my own mind had rejected my "joke." But before I reached my room…"Madison, Pietro's bothering me! Get on your computer!" Wanda spat from inside her room. "Alright!" I said dashing to my room.
"Hey! Pietro! What's going on!?" I asked, smiling. "Wow, you are really…very cheery today Mads."
"Uh…I have a reason. You see…we just kicked the X-Men's asses!" I laughed. He did too, a little evil kind of laugh, like supervillians sons should have. "Well, how did it feel to kick their asses?" he asked with an evil smirk to go with the laugh. "Great. They try way too hard." And they did. Way too hard to be all strong and domineering. It was kind of pathetic. "Mads? You paying attention?" Pietro's voice rang. "Huh? Oh, sorry I must have been zoning. What were you saying?"
"I was saying that the work we had to do, we got done while the X-Men were gone, so we'll be there in the morning." I looked at the computer clock, which said it was almost midnight. "Oh wow! I didn't know it was that late. But that's great! I'll be out there waiting for you. Who's all coming?"
"Everybody. The Brotherhood and Acolytes. And another of my father's assistants. I don't know what his deal is. He's been an ass since he's been here." I heard some yelling in the background, and then Pietro shouting obscenities at the unseen characters. "Well, we need to get ready to go. A trip to the desert. Then there. See ya around eight."
"Alright. I'll see you too. Lo-" Oh my god! I almost said it again! Staple your damn mouth shut! "What?" he asked. "Um…nothing. Looking forward to you. See ya." I logged off quickly and sat there thinking about why in the hell I would want to say that. Why!? There was something really wrong with me. But hey, Pietro's coming tomorrow! Yeah, there was definitely something wrong with me.
I liked that one. I hope you do too. What's wrong with Maddy? Holy crap. Well, I still need suggestions for an Acolyte name for her. Lets see those and reviews! Thanks! Bye!
