yae yang: well first off Pam was busy (besides Ray wasn't in the room), and
what about Amara, forgot about her huh? Oh and I got something planned for
Jamie in the next story, and I'm still working on the Rahne/Joseph thing.
Eden: Thanks I was trying a little harder to get the humor down, and here you go for the next chapter!
Shadow-Spider: Thanks I really appreciate that, and I hope I keep your interest, since I don't think I'll stop with just 2 stories.
BlackRoseApocalyps: LOL tell me your joking, you really threw your homework out a freaking window in a storm, man and I though I had a temper. :)

CHAPTER 11: THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE EVIL
Vincent woke up that day feeling really bad, his body ached but his head was killing him. He slowly opened his eyes and when his vision un-blurred he was face to face with large teeth and blue fur.
"AHH!" He bolted nearly dropping to the floor.
"Oh sorry I tend to forget what my appearance can do to people sometimes." He said with a hint at humor.
Vincent who was sitting upright, had his hand over his heart and was fully awake from the adrenaline looked at him for a few seconds and then looked around. "Ah crap not here again." He said with distain for being in the medical ward. "No offence but I'm really hating waking up in here."
"So what happened...wait I remember...there was Lucas, Morbius and...Sinister." Which of course he said Sinister with the venom he always said with that name.
"Do you remember what happened to you, this new power you showed." Hank asked him.
Vincent thought about it. "Yeah I do, let me guess the effects of the recombinator right." Beast nodded his head. "Great so what did it do?"
Hank shrugged. "I'm not entirely certain so we're going to have to run some test."
Vincent just fell back onto the bead and groaned. "At least tell me the others made it out okay."
"Don't worry they did." Hank told him, he also filled him in on the new details, which didn't improve his mode one bit.
Meanwhile...
Amanda was sitting outside enjoying the morning sun reflecting on her life. It was amazing how much her life had changed in just a few short days. First her parents had accepted Kurt, which overjoyed her to no end.
Then the day of the accident had truly changed her forever. She was now a mutant. It was still strange, for her entire life she was human and thought herself that. Now she was something else, she looked the same acted the same, in fact she was still her, yet...not.
She didn't have a problem with being a mutant, it was just weird that suddenly she was one and she was still adjusting. It also meant that she got to be with Kurt more. Now that she was living here she saw him a lot more, and their training sessions were fun too.
She had no idea it took so much concentration to teleport, and sometimes they would try their own version of 'tag' in where one of them teleports and the other tries to catch them using teleportation.
Of course the prize was a kiss from the 'loser' but they didn't mind, and they certainly didn't tell anyone that, if it got to Logan he might want to oversee their little game.
It wasn't all good though. She still felt responsible for what happened to her family, and was glad no one was hurt or even killed. Now that she was a mutant she had to worry about people like the FOH and their supporters.
She also wasn't looking forward to returning to school because the few friends she kept when she stated going out with Kurt and hanging out with the other mutants, might not want anything to do with her.
She had grown a lot closer to her friends here, but the other friends at school she had known for years, and it would hurt to lose them.
At lest her parents were doing better. They got a call from Dr. Connor saying he was all right, and they were glad their old friend was doing better.
They were also both going back to work, although her mom got lighter duties because of the arm. Everyone had heard of the attack, and they were being nice about it enough.
Although the ones responsible were never caught and she doubted they would be.
Her parents had also seemed to have found some friends in the adults. Her mother and Ororo had grown close, in fact her mother loved Ororo's garden and helped her out even. The two of them were beginning to be quiet good friends.
What surprised her the most was the fact that her father and LOGAN of all people were enjoying each other's company. She figured it was because he was the only adult that had similar interests. They spent a few nights watching sports and drinking a few beers.
When she first saw that sight she figured she was seeing things. She also suspected that her father liked Logan because of his overprotective behavior to the students, especially over the girls.
She figured her father trusted him to make sure Kurt didn't cross any line. She knew Kurt would never hurt her, and her father knew that too, but that wasn't what worried him. She could see his reasons for that though.
Her living in the same home as her boyfriend, and the fact that they both could teleport to each other's room and no one would be the wiser. Okay she did have a few fantasies about that, but they wouldn't do anything like that, at least until they were both ready and 18 so Logan couldn't do anything to Kurt it they did.
Her parents had also finally got the insurance money for the fire and were still looking for a new home, this place was great, but they felt they needed to not live off Xavier. He was doing enough with helping their daughter.
Things may be better and some worse, but she loved being here and would change it.

NEW YORK STATE FOH HQ
There was a meeting going on in the private office of Greydon Creed. There with him were two vary special visitors.
To his left was Guy Spears the inventor of Power8, a drink lethal to mutants. To his right a man that the FOH was helping him by hiding him from SHEILD and founding his research, Bolivar Trask the creator of the Sentinels.
"So gentlemen how are our respected projects going?" Creed asked.
"My formula for the mutant toxin the T8 is going nicely." Spears said with a smile. "The test subjects seem to live for about 48 to 96 hours after exposure, resulting in death."
"I was hoping for it to act quicker than that." Creed said disappointed in his results.
"We are fine tuning it, and could be ready for the deadline." Spears said to him defensively.
Creed nodded then looked to Trask.
"Well my new facility and with the help of our mutual backers, I'm improving the Sentinel design, and I'm also working on a smaller Hunter/Killer model to seek out mutants where the larger ones can't follow." Trask said.
"Well now that sounds promising, now there is only one more issue to talk about." Creed said darkly. "Xavier's."
"Yes we need to know what is going on in there." Trask said. "I read reports of at least one new mutant who could be a vary big problem and then there's that new girl too."
"We could always try and do what you did with that Wolverine character." Spears said.
Trask thought about it. "I do need more subjects to test the new sentinels, and I do have the facility and means to force any information out of them, but which ones?"
"I say we take the weaker ones first, they shouldn't be too much of a problem." Spears said to them.
"I agree, the last thing we need is it to get ones that could be too powerful to control and wreck your facility." Creed said to Trask. Creed typed in some information into his computer.
"These ones should be the weakest and easiest to obtain." Creed said to them and showed them the computer screen.
- Rahne Sinclair, power: were-wolf
- Jamie Madrox, power: duplication
- Jubilation Lee, power: fire works
-Amanda Sefton, power: white energy bolts.
- Rogue (real name unknown), Power: absorption
"Yes those will do nicely." Trask said to him after looking at the screen.

SAVAGE LAND
Sinister was working in his lab as Magneto entered.
"How goes the new recruit?" Magneto asked him.
"Ah yes Mr. Morbius." Sinister said he turned to see a tank which currently held Morbius, he was floating in a tank filled with a green liquid, and tubes entering all over his body. "The recoding of his genetic structure is going well. I think I solved the problem of his aversion to light and have enhanced his system to not burn up so much plasma in his body."
"So does he still need to feed?" Magneto asked him looking at the tank.
"Oh yes, but not as much and it not only does it not have to be fresh but anything mammalian will do." Sinister said vary pleased with his work.
"Interesting, there was something else you wanted to show me." He said to Sinister.
Sinister grinned like a kid in a candy store. "Oh yes indeed." He walked over to a device he was working on. "This is the neo-genetic recombinator. Young Mr. Morbius took this gem after the fight at the science disaster."
"Apparently he couldn't resist to toy around with it, so he took it home in a van he owned and tried to fix it. Well he sort of did, but it fired mutating him."
"Are you saying this device can change humans into mutants?" Magneto asked.
"Well not entirely, only those with an X-gene are effected, and I know what you're thinking, if we try and build a device like this only large enough to encompass say even a city, the amount of energy would not only kill every human, not that I care, but every mutant as well."
"We can only safely use this device in its current configuration unfortunately." Sinister said vary depressed from that.
"Well carry on, maybe there is still a use for it, and when your 'protégé' awakens he will begin his training for the mission." Magneto said.
"I take it you mean attacking The Abyss and gaining our next two recruits?" Sinister asked.
Magneto only stopped for a second while leaving. "Yes." Then started to leave.
Sinister looked at Morbius. Magneto called him his 'protégé' and it seemed to fit. The young man reminded him a lot of himself. A genius, ambitious, willing to do anything for not only science but for his survival.
Yes this young man could be everything he was if not more, and if he was like a vampire he might even be immortal like himself. He could be like the son he always wanted. Sinister grew a smile on his face.
Yes he would be the perfect mind to mold.

BACK AT XAVIER'S
Vincent was in the Danger Room by himself. He wasn't in his uniform just loose clothing and had several monitors on his body.
Hank and Xavier were in the control room over looking him. Hank activated the PA system. "Now Vincent we need to test this so go slow. First you'll power up FULLY and then you'll do some light exercises."
"We placed several targets, one of which the large one will measure your energy attacks. There is also two vary large pistons, that will try and crush you when you get between them, as you remember from previous sessions, this will gauge your strength."
"Any questions?" He finished.
Vincent looked up. "Just say the word." Hank nodded then gave him the hand signal to begin.
Vincent charged up normally with the glowing eyes and fists then went to the next level. Once again he was covering in the living energy of crimson fire, and his body took on a red tone.
Hank looked at the readings astonished at them. Vincent took off and blasted all the targets within a second, then blasted the main target with an energy blast with one hand. The blast was so powerful it the target actually overloaded and the blast went through it. He then quickly landed in between the pistons.
They did indeed try to crush him and it usually took him a few seconds to force them back, but when he pushed they immediately flew back and broke off.
Vincent had never felt so powerful he was hovering over the ground when he began to feel light headed. "Vincent power down now!" Hank urgently yelled.
Vincent did that, and when he finished he fell to the ground completely exhausted and sweating and breathing hard. "Vincent please come and see us." Xavier said to him. He nodded and slowly got up.
He came into the control room drained and fell into an empty chair. "So what the verdict?" He asked them.
Hank looked gravely at him. "Well it seems that this new ability enables you to draw out all your energy reserves and transfers it to all your other functions. Everything speed, strength and you energy attacks are increased."
"I sense a but coming." Vincent said not liking where this was going to go.
"But it puts a tremendous strain on your body, it wasn't build for this and if you use this for too long a time it can damage you, either permanently or fatally."
"You mean I could die it I use it?" Vincent said jumping up off his seat.
"Yes you could, you could either burn yourself out or....explode from the over load of energy. And even if you do use it and then stop as you've seen it leaves you weakened." Hank finished his grave analysis.
Vincent sat back down. "Great just when I have to worry about not killing or hurting anybody else with my powers they could kill me now too."
Xavier came forward. "I know this is difficult for you, and I know I don't need to tell you to not use this new ability unless there is no other option, and not to use it in training unless supervised."
Vincent nodded. "Yeah you don't have to tell me." He said flatly.
Later after a good shower he got up to the main level feeling really depressed and to tell the truth scared.
"Hey how ya doin'?" He smiled at the sound of her voice and turned to meet Rogue coming towards her.
"Could be better." He said with a forced smile. She saw that he was worried and went up close to him and placed her hands on his shoulders. "What's wrong?" She asked vary worried.
He told her about the test and the results. "Basically it means if I use this 'booster' ability of mine I could end up dead." He could see how upset she was getting in her eyes. "Rogue." He said quietly "I'm scared."
She immediately pulled him close into a hug and he hugged her back. "It will be all right." She said. They stay like that more a few minutes then he slowly pulled back to look at her, he placed his on the side of her head.
"I'm so glad I met you." He said she looked into his eyes. "So do I." She said back. He moved his head closer and kissed her on the lips, they shared a their kiss full of caring and comfort for how knows how long.
At the end he smiled down on her, and she smiled back, they slowly placed their heads forward and rested their heads against each other.
He pulled back and moved to her side, and wrapped his arm around her waist. "Come on beautiful lets try and enjoy the day."
She smiled weakly at him worry in her eyes. "How can ya just ignore what Hank just told ya?"
"I can't, but I'm not going to let it ruin my life, or my day spending with my beautiful girlfriend." He said lovingly to her.
She smiled a real smile at him and shook her head slightly. "Well ain't ya just the silver tongued devil." She said playfully.
"You want me to stop?"
"Hell no sugar, ya know I lahke it."
Then he laughed slightly. She always made her feel better.
