SouthernGirl: Why ? Sobs Why couldn't I be graced the the talent of Tolkien.
(A/N- This is not a crossover. And before any of you say anything I know that the queen of the fairies in A Midsummer Night's Dream was actually named Tityana and Beast knew it too but that blabbermouth Jean Grey cut him off. Oh and for reference take the X-Men timeline and events and throw them out the window. I made up my own.)
Warren, aka Angel, never doubted the strength he saw in Tatyana for she did survive and began to flourish under the X-Men's care. Warren spoiled her. Bobby doted on her. Jubilee and Warren taught her things she shouldn't know quite yet. Sage and Emma fought over reading her bedtime stories. Hank let her raid his twinkie stash. Jono taught her to swim and opened her eyes to music. Paige protected her. Pennance watched over her at night. Angelo made her laugh. Kitty took her on day trips when she was in town. Scott disciplined her (much to Warren and Emma's disapproval). Everett let her get away with murder. Sean sang to her when she had nightmares. Kurt taught her German (well as much as her child mind could absorb). Jean kissed away her tears and her booboos. Forge built her toys. Sam took her flying. Cable showed her how to build weapons (see Warren twitching). Domino taught her blackjack (see Scott twitching). Bishop took her on his rounds. Marrow tolerated her. Gambit ignored her preferring the southern drawl in his head. And Storm was plotting. But none could completely fill the void that was slowly forming in Tatyana's heart. None could put out the fire that was growing. They couldn't stop the anger that was slowly increasing. Nor could they stop the depression that would soon consume her. Then again there was Gateway and Monet. When she was old enough they would know what to do but for now only a visit is in order.
Hank was gazing at a slide under his microscope when he felt a distinct tugging on his fur. He smiled when he felt Tatyana climbing up his back. "And what, pray tell, do I owe this visit?"
"Play," the two year old chirpped happily.
"I can't right now, Taty."
"Play," she chirpped again then continued in awe ",look."
Tatyana held her glowing green hand in front of Hank's eyes. Hank rolled his chair back in shock maybe a little too fast. The startled Tatyana fired off her powers from her hand destroying the table Hank had been working at.
"Shit," Tatyana yelled before wailing at the top of her lungs.
That sent Warren running into the lab. He looked at the still smoking table, then to the wailing Tatyana, then to the open mouthed Hank. Warren tried to process the scene in front of him a few moments before giving up. "What happened in here ?"
"Tatyana is a mutant it would seem. Oh, also, someone needs to speak to Logan and Jubilee again about Tatyana's ever expanding vocabulary."
Hank handed Warren the now sniffeling girl as he set about cleaning the charred mess in front of him. Warren took a few moments to let everything sink in before smiling broadly. "That's my girl. Lets go to Tiffany's so I can buy you something to commemorate this moment. I think something with diamonds."
"Tatyana is too young to appreciate diamonds. Do you not want to find out what her mutation is ?"
"Does it matter ?"
"Warren she destroyed my laboratory. YES, I think it matters."
The next morning Tatyana was in the back yard waddling after Wolverine. Warren, Jean, Scott, and Hank watched from the kitchen. "Really Warren," Jean clucked, amused ",a platinum heart necklace ? You don't spend that much on your girlfriends."
"Well, my girlfriends aren't the Queen of fairies. Besides, Taty's practically my daughter."
Scott tried to frown but failed miserably. "You spoil her too much. She'll become a brat."
"She most certainly will not."
"I have deduced Taty's mutation," Hank interrupted. Then continued when all eyes were on him ",She is an Electro-kinetic manipulator. Tatyana is an electromagnetic pulse and solar powered at that. I hope you are ready to start spending your money on new appliances instead of jewelry once she becomes a teenager, Warren."
The sky outside grew dark, thunder rolled in the distance. Emma Frost stood in the door of the kitchen. "Jean could you please come with me."
Emma flashed a picture of Storm on the room calling up her powers while staring at Tatyana to Jean's mind. The two telepaths quickly made their way to the roof. As they got closer a sense of foreboding weighed their feet down. Emma was the first to speak to Storm. "If you follow through with this I'll have no choice but to act on my earlier threat."
"Jean won't let you," Storm grinned evilly down at the toddler who carried her blood.
"I won't stop Emma, Ororo."
Logan was running for Tatyana, he smelled danger. Storm called a lightening bold down on the pixie girl. Tatyana stiffened and her mouth opened in shock. The scars where her wings once were blistered. Her tiny fingernails burst into flame. Her auburn hair stood on end. Blood vessels in her eyes ruptured. She cried red tears. The heart necklace burned into her skin creating a permanent necklace. All in a split second. Logan scooped her up, running inside to Hank.
Emma called up her own powers. Ororo crumpled to the roof tiles. Jean stood back, watching, angry. Emma picked up Storm's face in her hand ",Listen, and listen well Weather Witch. Pray to your goddess. Because if that child dies or is mentally harmed in any way I will come back to finish the job."
"What have you done to me," Storm inquired weakly.
"Taken you gifts. I turned your power off. I hope you suffer because of it."
Jean entered Tatyana's room in the medical bay only to find four X-Men already keeping vigil over the girl. Logan slept on one side of the bed, Warren on the other, both gingerly holding Tatyana's bandaged hands. Bobby and Jubilee were lying in the other bed, wrapped in each other's arms, also sleeping. Jean quirked a delicate eyebrow at the pair wondering how she missed that. Logan sat up, starteling her out of her thoughts. He looked over his shoulder at the bed, smiling. "That's been goin' on a lot longer than either of us know."
"I shouldn't be surprised. They are so much alike."
"I'm goin' on a trip, Jeannie."
"And..."
"I'm takin' Taty with me. Just long enough for you guys to deal with 'Ro."
"She's already been dealt with."
"Doesn't make her any less dangerous. 'Sides I think Jean-Luc would like to know he's a grandfather."
"Remy won't be happy."
"Ain't his decision to make. Hank says I can take Taty in a week."
"You are not going anywhere without me," Warren mumbled.
"I'm goin' too," Jubilee called.
"I go where Jubes goes."
Wolverine growled in frustration.
Two Weeks Later...
New Orleans, The Aquarium Of the Americas
Tatyana stared at the sea turtles completely transfixed. Jubilee used a finger to close the girl's mouth but it fell back open. Taty placed her hands on the glass trying to get closer. Jubilee watched in awe as all of the sea turtles swam to Taty and stayed, watching her. Jubilee could swear they were bowing their heads to her. "No, they can't be. Could they? Taty lets walk over here to see the dolphins."
"Bye tutles," she waved. "Yea, dolphins."
The dolphins repeated the same behavior as the turtles. Bobby chose that moment to walk over to them ",Are they bowing their heads ?"
"Yeah."
"Look at the other tanks, Jubes."
Jubilee looked around to see all of the sea creatures at the glass looking at Tatyana. Tatyana giggled happily. "Let's find Wolvie."
"He said he wanted to talk to Jean-Luc first."
"I think this calls for an interruption."
Jubilee turned to pick up Taty but she wasn't there. She followed the dolphin's gaze behind her. "Taty, no, don't."
"Gateway," the child cried happily, running towards the mute aborigine and his open portal.
Jubilee and Bobby ran for the the girl but they were too late. Taty disappeared with Gateway into the portal. "Logan is gonna kill us," Bobby mumbled.
"Thank you Mister Obvious."
