Disclaimer: We own Ivy, Jaimie and the plot
Italics Mean that it's either Ivy or Pietro talking at superspeed.
Italics that are underlined are people talking to eachother telepathicly or thinking to themselves, even though there won't be much of this, I figured I get it in.
Bolds are stressed words.
A Dream (a tale of Ghost and Velocity)
Chapter Two: I have dreamed of joy departed;
Ivy laughed and knocked on the door.
"Come in." A voice said. Ivy opened it and the two girls walked in.
The secretary pointed to the main office door and both girls walked through.
The two walked into the head-master-dudes office. Two people were sitting at the table.
"Yo yo! Ivy's in de house!" Ivy said with a smile as she plopped down into a chair in between the two adults.
"She means 'Hi! I'm here now! LET'S PARTY!' Personally, I prefer using the simpler approach of, 'Hello, human creatures. What do you pitiful excuses for beings want from me now?'"
"NO!! Jaimie! It's PAR-TAY!! 'Party' sounds like something a OLD person would say!" Ivy said, wrinkling up her nose.
"By old, I assume you mean over twenty?" Jaimie asked.
"No.... I mean anyone over 19. And sometimes it's 17.... Depends on my mood." Ivy stated boredly.
"Ah. Well, I suppose I deserved that... After all, I was assuming, and you know what they say about assuming!" Jaimie said.
Ivy looked over at her with a confused look on her face. "They say something 'bout 'assumming'? Wow! What do they say?" Ivy asked.
But before Jaimie could answer the head master dude.... A.K.A. Mr. Janneson beat her to it.
"Back to the matter at hand." He said. Ivy looked at him, for the first time since she'd entered the room.
"DUDE!! You were, like, in the hallway when we left..... You're fast....but not as fast as me!!" Ivy said.
"Assume makes an 'ass' of 'U' and 'me'." Jaimie answered Ivy's question, that she'd asked a few minutes ago.
"Ohhh..........." Ivy said, she quickly lost interest in that though and looked over at the woman next to her. The woman was pale, with short orange-red hair and green eyes. "Hiya! You look kinda like me!! Cool! My name's-"
"Ivy Nicole Nite.... I know. I'm Raven Darkholme. I'm your mother." The woman stated blankly.
"Isn't it, 'Luke, I'm your father'?" Ivy asked in a deep voice, a smile on her face. She started to giggle.
"No." Raven said plainly.
"But I thought-" Ivy started.
"You thought wrong." Raven said quickly.
"So why do I need to be he- WAIT!! MY BEST FRIEND IS MOVING AWAY??? But- But- but I just met her!!!" Jaimie wailed.
"You need to be here because-" Mr. Janneson started.
"Luke, I am your father." The man said, in a dark, evil voice. "Or, more properly, Jaimie, I am your father. My name is Eric Lensherr." The man continued.
At 'Luke, I am your father' Jaimie and Ivy had both fallen over on the floor laughing.
"{1}Kitty, where is your tail?" Jaimie said, laughing.
Eric looked at her blankly. "What does that have to do with anything?" He asked.
"It's- it's a fan- fanfic I read- read once!" Jaimie gasped out.
"I read that one too! 'Bring me the anti-gravity formula, Amelia!'" Ivy said.
"'But I thought it was an anti-gravity potion?'" Jaimie quoted.
"'NEVER MIND THAT!'" Ivy said.
The adults looked on in complete confusion. The two girls were still on the floor laughing their heads off.
"How long have they known each other? It must have been a long time, since they seem to have forged a strong friendship." Eric said, looking at Mr. Janneson.
Mr. Janneson looked at his watch. "Four minutes and forty-two seconds."
"Really?! Man! Does time just FLY by, or what!?" Ivy asked.
"Four minutes, and forty seconds isn't a long-"
"IT'S A LONG TIME!!! Because.... I say it is!!!" Ivy shouted, acting like a three year-old.
"You're acting like an infant, Ivory." Said Raven. Ivy winced back at the sound of her 'full' first name.
"She takes after her mother in that aspect." Eric said dryly.
"I do??? COOL!!" Ivy said.
"Question: If you're my father, why don't we have the same last name?" Jaimie asked curiousl- No, drop that. Suspiciously. Or maybe it WAS curiously...?
"Yeah!! Why is that?" Ivy asked Raven.
"Nite was your father's last name, Ivy." Mr. Janneson explained, "And Jaimie was stolen, as an infant..." He said. He held out a small paper with small fingerprints on it, and a larger sheet with slightly larger fingerprints. "These fingerprints, taken when you were born and the newer ones that were made when you came here, match up, proving that you're his daughter. Although, if you are worried, and want to make sure, we could always do a blood test-"
"No! That's alright, really!" Jaimie said quickly.
"Alright. And you don't have to be worried about being taken away from your 'best friend'. Raven and Eric run a boarding school together, so you two will be living in the same building."
"...Do I have a mom? 'Cause if I do, she must be mad at you for cheating on her." Jaimie said.
Eric and Mr. Janneson looked at her blankly.
"What are you insinuating, you little b-" Raven began, angrily.
"Maybe your mother died and they got together! Hey! Are you two married? Does that make us sisters?" Ivy asked.
"Or maybe they're having an affair, because if I have a mother, then you might have a father, and-" Jaimie began.
"HEY!!! Wait..... Umm.....what was I going to say?.......OH!!! Who IS my dad? Is he cool? I bet he has gold eyes, huh? Since you don't I mean, and I do-"
"Your father is dead," Raven said, "And I am very happy about that. He was a very-" Raven started, glaring- again.
"Your mom glares a lot, huh?" Jaimie interrupted.
Ivy didn't pay any attention to Jaimie and was staring at Raven. "Did the goverment do it?I bet that they did! They kill lotsa' people! They control EVERYONE!!" Ivy shouted. Everyone just kinda stared at her.
"What?" Raven asked, looking at her daughter.
"She said, 'Did the government do it? I bet that they did! They kill lots of people! They control everyone!" Eric stated in a bored fashion.
Raven looked at him strangely. "Do I WANT to know how you understood that?" She asked, one of her eyebrows raised.
"My son has the same problem." Eric answered, apparently not realizing that Ivy was sitting next to him.
"Oh." Raven said sheepishly.
"It's not a problem!!! Wait.....you have a son!? Is he cute?! I bet he is!! Jame! You have a brother!! Can I date him if he's cute, and is I can't, can I get a dog??"
"No, you may NOT, Ivy." Raven said sternly.
"No I can't get a dog, or no I can't date Jame's brother?"
"BOTH; and Jaimie also has a sister. Wanda and Pietro. Pietro has the same speed problem you do, it seems. And Wanda... Wanda spent most of her life in a insane asylum...." Raven explained.
"Wow...your family's got problems!" Ivy said to Jaimie. Jaimie didn't get the chance to reply, as Mr. Janneson pulled out a bunch of papers.
"I need you two to sign all of these." He said. He split the stack of papers in two and handed them to Eric and Raven.
After an hour of signing things, trying to keep Raven from killing her daughter, and dealing with his own child, Eric was ready to kill everyone in the room.
They walked out of the orphanage and into the sun. "FREEE!!! FINALLY!!!....But then again... I would have been out of this one by tomorrow....can we stop somewhere and get chinese fireworks!?" Ivy asked.
"NO!!" Raven yelled.
"But Mommy...." Ivy whined.
"Eric… MAKE HER STOP, PLEASE!!" Raven moaned.
"Raven. She's your daughter, remember. Remember what happened with Kurt and Rogue..." Eric said sternly.
"Rogue. Not Kurt. Kurt has a heart. Family is very important to Kurt, AND what happened to him was YOUR fault. ROGUE, on the other hand..."
"Who's Rogue? Who's Kurt..... I like the name Kurt.... I like Ivan better...no! I like, Peter! NO! Remy!!! No! JOHN!!! No! Wait… SAM!! YEAH! That name so rules!!" Ivy said happily.
"I don't know… I like the name Rogue! That's a cool name! But my favorite name.. Is… Kitty! And.... Lance!" Jaimie said, "And-"
"Lance Alvers, AKA Avalanche, Rogue, AKA Rogue, AKA, Rogue Darkholme. Kurt Wagner, AKA Nightcrawler. Peter, AKA Colossus, Remy, AKA Gambit, St. John, AKA Pyro, Kitty Pryde, AKA Shadowcat. Avalanche, Colossus, Gambit, and Pyro are a few of your future team-mates." Raven said in a bored tone. (Mixed: WE HAVE DONE THE MOST WONDERFUL THING!!! The Acolytes...with the BoM! THEY ALL LIVE IN BAYVILLE TOGETHER!! Where I can find them?!?! -Does the finger thing that Mr. Burns does, while laughing manically-.)
"You know what name I hate!? JEAN! And Scott...and CHARLES....because they're snotty names, ya know?!?!" Ivy said.
"Scott Summer AKA Cyclops, Professor Charles Xavier, Jean Grey. A few of your future enemies. You will be expected to defeat them." Raven said in the same bored tone.
"Dude! Stop that!! It's, like, totally creepy!" Ivy said as she pointed at Raven, a pretend horrifed look on her face.
Jaimie looked at Raven, confused. "Team-mates? Enemies? Defeat?... What are you talking about, Raven Darkholme?"
A few minutes later…
"So… you two want us to fight for you? And beat up… the people who aren't evil, just hopelessly stupid?" Jaimie asked, confused. Eric's explanation was confusing.
"Right. But they are also hopeless goody-goodies, who think they're better than everyone else, and have ruined quite a few carefully laid plans… So, in this case, I'd say we're the evil ones." Raven explained, totally undermining Eric's explanation. "...And the law is not a factor."
"So....can I get Chinese fireworks or what???" Ivy asked, still using her one-track mind.
"No." Raven said.
"Okay.....can I have them if....they appear...and you don't know where they're from??? THEN can I keep them? If not. Can I get a dog?"
"You may not have a dog. And if you get caught stealing I won't bail you out of jail- You'll be on your own."
"Geez, you have a nice mother, Ivy...." Jaimie said sarcastically.
"I know! Isn't she just the, like, COOLEST! ANYWAY!" Ivy said. She apparently didn't notice the sarcasm coming from her friend. Ivy turned her attention back to her mother, "Who said I would get caught!? I'd be gone before they saw me.... And why can't I get a dog!? How about a cat? Wait! No! I don't wanna cat.....PLEASE CAN I GET A DOGGIE?!...If one....ummm....follows me home, can I have one?????" Ivy asked.
"No."
"PLEASE!?"
"NO!!"
"PRETTY PLEASE!?" Ivy asked.
"NONONO!!"
"Okay." Ivy said. "I'll get one later when I have the time to convince you that a dog is a good thing for me to have."
"I'm your mother. That means I have control of you. I'm allowed to punish you. I have a feeling that this will come in handy.... CAN'T WE SEND THEM AWAY TO BOARDING SCHOOL? PLEASE ERIC? PLEASE??" Raven whined.
"No."
"Fine. I'll just… convince you later when I have time." Raven said.
"Why'd you just adopt us, if you wanted to send us away to boarding school???" Ivy asked. Finally asking a useful question.
"Because they didn't know how annoying we could be. And can we go to the library later? PLEASE??? I wanna get out.... books! LOTS OF BOOKS!! Say.... a hundred! Can I That should last me a month!"
"Wow..BOOKWORM ALERT!..... If she gets books, can we go to block buster too? I wanna get some movies...THE MUMMEY RETURNS!! OH! And 'Dracula 2000', Signs, and The- no! Not the Ring...that's the evil one!" Ivy said, dramatically, she grabbed Jaimie by the shoulders and shook her, while saying, "What ever you do! Don't ever see the movie 'THE RING'! It's pure evil Itell you!! EEEVVVIIILLLL!!!!"
"...Okay." Jaimie said. "So can we? Get books, I mean."
"Depends on what books." Eric said.
"What do you mean?" Jaimie asked.
"First of all, there are some books even I wouldn't let my children read. Second-" Eric began. He stopped when he saw the look Raven was giving him. "What?"
"You CARE what your children read?" She asked, shock written all over her face. "You locked one up in an asylum for… years.... abandoned another, and you are mostly only using Pietro for your own needs, and you still CARE what they READ? So, what, you visited the asylum where Wanda was kept, and made sure she only read things you approved of?" Raven asked sarcastically.
"She has a point." Jaimie said.
"Why was she in an asylum? You know one of the orphanages Iwas in, tried to send me to an asylum... but they didn't want to do all the paperwork, and I was gone before they changed their minds..." Ivy said.
"Wanda was unable to control her powers, and was dangerous… 'Do you feel guilty for what you did, Eric? Or are you just upset because she came back trying to kill you?' He brainwashed her.-" Raven said.
"I was told that I was insane and dangerous to those around me once...and that I have a short-term memory problem....I dyed that persons hair bright neon pink...."
"Why don't I find that hard to belive?" Raven mumbled under her breath. Eric chuckled.
"AGAIN?" Jaimie asked. "Why do you ALWAYS do that?" Jaimie thought about what she had just said. "How do I know that you always do that?"
"Dunno! ANYWAY!" Ivy said as she turned to face Raven again. "Can I get a dog, NOW?"
"No. Eric? Can you make her shut up? You must know how! I mean, with your son..." Raven begged.
"No. It's impossible to shut my son up. Unless I scare him. That works." Eric said thoughtfully.
Raven nodded taking this in.
When they got to the orb-things, they split up- Raven and Ivy- to Raven's displeasure- in one, Eric and Jaimie in the other. After twenty minutes, of riding in the orb-things, they finally got to the house.
Ivy had spent the whole trip going, 'Are we there yet? Can I get a dog, now?How 'bout my fireworks? Are we thereYET?'. So Raven was ready to kill and was about to, when the orbs opened and both fell out.
Eric and Jaimie were standing outside of the orbs, talking happily about some book or other.
"So anyway, this- Oh, HI IVY!! Have fun?" Jaimie asked.
"Yes Raven, did you enjoy the trip?" Eric asked, quite evilly, a smirk on his face, as he looked down at Raven.
Raven glared at him, "Bite me Eric." Raven said as she stood, and brushed herself off.
"HEY! That's MY line!" Ivy said, jumping quickly to her feet. She began to pout. "You're tacky and I hate you mommy!" Ivy said in a very whinny voice.
"I AM NOT!!! AND DON'T CALL ME THAT!!!" Raven said, sticking out her tongue and stomping into the building. She stomped up the steps, calling behind her, "WE HAVE NEW MEMBERS!! I'LL BE IN MY ROOM AND IF ANYONE BOTHERS ME, THEY WILL DIE!!!" Raven said.
"I like it here already....My mommy loves me so!" Ivy said happily. She skipped up the stairs after Raven. "Oh, mommy dearest!!" Ivy said happily. Ivy stopped when eight people walked into the hall. "Kon'nichi wa!!" Ivy called.
"Kon'nichi wa minna-san! Hey, Daddy? Can we go to the library later? I wanna get the book we were talking about out again to reread it."
"...Daddy?" one of the tall brown-haired boys asked, raising an eyebrow.
"YEAH!! This is my daddy! Can I meet Wanda and Pietro now? Or should I go bother Raven with Ivy instead?" Jaimie said.
Ivy, had disappeared up the stairs....
"GET OUT NOW!!!" Raven's voice shouted. Ivy came tumbling down the stairs. She sat up on the ground and looked up at the stairs…
"My mommy-dearest loves me so!" Ivy said cheerfully, apparently not realizing that her mother just tried to kill her....
"...Your… mommy dearest? Wait… Can someone tell me what's goin' on, yo?" A short, greenish, smelly boy asked.
Ivy looked over at him and smiled. She jumped up. "My name's Ivory Nicole Nite-Darkholme, call me Nicole or Ivory and I'll kill you! And this is my friend Jaimie and do you know that you need a bath really, really, really badly?"
"Oh yes, great way to start a friendship, Ivy-chan… Anyway, I'm Jaimie Maia Winter- Or, Jaimie Maia Lensherr… Or, Jaimie Maia Winter-Lensherr… or- But you can call me Jaimie!"
"Right....What's going on, dad?" A silver-haired boy asked.
"Yes, what's going on, Father?" The only girl asked.
"This is your sister, Jaimie. I'm not sure if I mentioned her before, but she was kidnapped when she was a baby. And Jamie-"
"Oh, oh!I have a question!!!" Ivy said, raising her hand and waving it impatiently.
"Yes, Ivy?" Eric asked.
"If she was kidnappededed,didn't you look for her?And if you didn't then you're not a good daddy, now are you?" Ivy said.
"Of COURSE I looked for her!" Eric said defensively.
"Yeah, but just because she has powers too, right?" Silver-hair mumbled.
"Oh! Cool! You talk like me! You must be Pietro! I'm Ivory! But never call me that! Call me Ivy!" Ivy said happily. She 'zipped' over to him and shook his hand forcefully.
"...YOU HAVE SUPERSPEED TOO? NOT ANOTHER ONE!!" Brown-hair 1 moaned.
"...Now for introductions." Eric said. "The one with silver hair is Pietro, the black-haired girl is Wanda, the taller boy with long brown hair is-"
"Have you ever been to New Orleans? I went down there for awhile! It was during the Marti Gras thing! It was cool... of course when I got back I got in trouble for disappearing for a month and got sent to ANOTHER orphanage..." Ivy said to Pietro. Who nodded weakly.
"Lance, and the short one with long brown hair is Toa- Todd, and the.... one with the mohawk is Fred, and the one with orange hair is St. John, and the tallest one with short brown hair is Remy, and- Is that everyone? Oh, and the tall black-haired one is Piotr."
"Piotr? Piotr-Peter! Can I call you Petey?????" Ivy asked him, leaving Pietro and moving to stand in front of Piotr… Who looked at her with a confused look on his face.
"If… you wish to..." 'Petey' said. He gave a weak smile to Ivy, who returned it happily.
"Can I call you Peter?" Jaimie asked, and, without waiting for an answer, turned onto Wanda. "So you're Wanda? Hi! I'm Jaimie! I can turn invisible! And sometimes I can go through things! And I have trouble using doorknobs! What's your powers? Daddy hasn't told me yet. And- IVY!!! YOU MADE ME HYPER!!!" Jaimie shouted.
"Sorry! Desole! Gomennasai!" Ivy said quickly.
"Wanda! Why don't you show these two to their rooms?" Eric asked. Wanda nodded.
"Follow me." Wanda said as she walked towards the stairs.
Jaimie and Ivy grabbed their bags and followed her.
Mixed: There's chapter two, sorry it took so long. We've been lazy and idiotic, because we keep writing more and more new fics, rather than working on the ones we've already created. But this is a main one we're working on, so we'll try and get the next chapter up sooner.
