NctrnlBst: lol, yeah I know what you meant. I'm pleased that I did that, it
will give me something to work with in future stories.
jadestar123: Thanks, I guess I just try to make things interesting by doing that.
Red Witch: No it won't be good, at least not for Blink.
BLINK'S NEW LIFE
CHAPTER 11: THE DREADED DANGER ROOM
Blink was finishing her breakfast. She was trying to eat but she was so nervous about this. She had asked Logan if she really was going to join in the Danger Room session and he told her that he thought she was ready.
She felt anything but ready at the moment. Images of the arena and HK sentinels kept flashing in her mind.
Before she knew it she had to get ready for the session she marched herself into the girls changing room on the lower levels to get into her uniform. She noticed that she and Amanda had the same generic uniform while the other girls had their own version.
"Hey guys" Blink asked the girls. "What's up with the uniforms? I mean Amanda and me seem to have the same thing while the rest of you don't."
Tabitha took it from there. "Well short story is, that used to be what all the new recruits used to wear. But you see we kept having the same argument with the adults that we should get our own."
"Well Vincent accidentally sparked the argument again, and Logan had had enough. Basically he got a deal that if someone could go through the New Mutants and then the X-Men we could get our own."
"Logan also wanted to get some revenge in too." Amara spoke up next. "So he picked Vincent to be the one to run the gauntlet for bringing it up again."
Blink looked around. "I'm guessing he won."
"And how, man knowing him now I can see it, but he had just joined us back then and we had no idea what he was capable of." Taby said to her. "But we learned and we learned fast."
"Man I wish I could have seen Mr. Logan's face when he lost the deal." Jubilee said a huge smile plastered on her face.
"Aye, I would have tae, it would have been o site to see." Rahne said who had just finished putting on her new uniform. It was basically a navy blue with yellow boots, matching cut off gloves and yellow on the front. She also had slim shoulder pads and there were two X symbols on the front near her shoulders.
Jubilee was finishing putting on her new one too. It was basically a black all over except for yellow boots and gloves. She also wore a yellow coat that looked kind of like the one she regularly wore only with the X symbol on each shoulder.
"I'm just glade we FINALLY got a chance to actually use these new uniforms Rahne." Jubilee said to the girl, who nodded in agreement.
"So do Amanda and me also get a new ones too?" Blink said.
"Yeah, but the deal is that you got to make it yourself and until then you got to wear the 'spare' ones." Tabitha told her.
"Oh. Well that seems fair." Blink said. "Although I think I might need a little help. I'm not too good with sowing and stuff."
"Not a problem I am and we can help each other out." Amanda said to her. They had all finished up and were leaving the locker rooms. They saw the male half of the New Mutants waiting outside the door.
Jamie was there also in his new uniform that he had Vincent helped him with. It was all black with matching boats and gloves, but looked more stylized with some slight padding around the ribs and the outside of the arms and legs. He wore a red X much like Scott, but this was actually on his uniform and not a piece of yellow metal.
"Hey Jamie I thought we were doing level seven today and Logan said you shouldn't do anything above a level five?" Jubilee asked the boy.
"Logan said he wanted to see if all my extra training with Vincent has improved me any, so I'm here for today." Jamie said to them all. He was a little proud of the fact that he was being given a chance to train on the higher levels with the older kids.
Just then the doors opened and the X-Men walked out. "Well that was an...interesting session." Vincent said who had both hands behind his head.
"Yeah I think Mr. Logan added a few things this time around." Kitty said rubbing her arm, where she got slammed into the ground.
"Well ah think ah'm actually startin' to enjoy it...a little anyways." Rogue said to her.
"Of course you are, with those new powers you don't have to like worry about being bruised up anymore." Kitty said back to her. "Although you should be careful or you might actually spent your free time there like some people." Kitty looked at Vincent while saying it.
"Hey, it's the only place I can let lose without wrecking the place. Besides I like the new personal programs I got." Vincent said in his defense.
"I guess we're up aren't we?" Amanda said to Kurt who had made a beeline to her after he got out.
"Ja, but I'll be in ze control room vatching and cheering you on." Kurt said with a smile on his face.
"Where's Bobby?" Jubilee asked when she didn't see him. Scott came up to her. "He was showing off and wasn't watching where he was going. Long story short, Hank took him to the infirmary for a sprained ankle a while ago."
Jubilee had gasped and cover her mouth at the news. "Don't worry Hank told us he'd bee fine, just needs to stay off it for a few days." Scott said seeing the worry in her face.
"Alright, you guys are up." Logan said to the New Mutants, who marked their way through. Blink looking nervously around the large metallic room.
Logan saw this and walked up to her. "Look elf-girl, I know you're new so we're doing the more simpler ones. Don't worry just stick together, and work as a team and you'll be fine."
They started off with a gauntlet exercise. They broke up into teams and ran around a racetrack dodging anything that came at them. Blink did exceptionally well, since she just used portals to dodge all the dangers.
After that she felt a little better. It wasn't as bad as she thought it would be. After that they did a team capture the flag. The New Mutants were teamed up into two groups and each group took a turn trying to get the flag at the end.
Logan had put Amanda and Blink on two separate teams then both had teleporters, but forbid them from teleporting right next to the flag. It was more difficult since they had to run through a maze but eventually they got through it.
The last one of the day was an exercise where they had to go through one end to the other while avoiding the others attacks. At the end of everything Blink felt like going off back to bead. And by the looks of some of the others they were too.
"Blink, Multiple I want to see you two." Logan said to them. They went over to him, Blink was nervous, thinking she messed up. "First off Multiple, you really did good out there, looks like all that extra training is paying off." Jamie smiled broadly at the praise.
"Clarice...you did well for your first time. You need a little work on your aim, and you should start with some self-defense training soon but...you did good kid. Be proud of yourself."
Blink only stood there a little shocked. She didn't expect to actually have him say anything like that to her. She felt a lot better about her performance and left to chance. Then after that maybe soak in a hot bath for an hour or two, and take a nap for a week.
She really didn't know how she could feel so bad physically yet so good at the same time, but at that moment it didn't matter. Right then she just wanted to soak her joints before they really started to ache.
FINAL CHAPTER IS UP NEXT: LOOKING BACK ON IT ALL
Yes it's coming to a close, but for those of you who know my work you all know I'll continue on in another story. By the way I'm trying to come up with a catchy name for my continuity. I'm thinking something like Agent-G's G-Averse, or AG's X-men, AG's universe (AGU for short)
