A/N: Thanks for the review. No one is reading this story so I'll just let you know DemonRogue13 that there are only two more chapters to come.
I don't own X Men Evolution.
===========================================================
It's been over a month since my dad died, and two months since Kitty's been missing. Oh yeah and in local news – Wanda moved in.
I lethargically dragged myself out of bed and walked to the bathroom.
"Pietro – BREAKFAST!"
I heard Wanda bellow out from in the kitchen.
"I'm not hungry." I stated nonchalantly as I walked into the kitchen and dropped myself on the chair.
She looked at me and let out a loud sigh.
I rolled my eyes and forced out a "what's with you?"
She groaned and grabbed the salt shaker out my hand and briskly wiped up my mountain masterpiece.
"Hey! Wanda – what's your problem?"
"You Pietro! You're my problem. You've been moping around this house for almost two months now, you've barely eaten a complete meal in weeks and you haven't been sleeping at nights."
I hung my head in despair.
"Look Pietro..." she walked over to me and placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder, "I know Dad's death has been really tough on you but we have to move on – he'd want us to move on. And I'm always here for you, if you need anything... you know that, don't you?"
I looked up at her and smiled weakly. "Yeah Wanda... I know."
===========================================================
"Hey Lance, I've been thinking about Kitty..."
"Yeah what else is new."
"No just listen to me. The last time we talked I remember her saying something about a winter lodge up at Bayville Point."
"Yeah my dad owns a lodge up there. Come to think of it so does Kitty."
"Thanks for suddenly remembering." Pietro stated sarcastically shaking his head somewhat. "Do you at least have a map or something?"
"Yeah I do. Do you want me to come with you?"
"Thanks man, you're a lifesaver!"
===========================================================
"Why are you keeping me here! Please, let me go!"
"Kitty I'm hurt. Don't you like it here? I've fixed it up especially for you."
"How long have I been here? Why are you doing this?"
"You ask too many questions little girl. You've been here a little over two months. You see Kitty you turned eighteen a while ago and you've now legally inherited all of your father's estate, all his money, stocks, trusts, everything.
Your father was always so selfish, first born, heir to the Miller family name and fortune, the golden child. I was always the lonely one, looked over by my peers. Oh yes it was true that one day I would have money but never as much as my beloved brother. I told myself, Gabby it would be okay, because once Steven died you would be next in line. You would have everything. But then you're father fell in love, got married and had a baby. How touching!
Then I found out that your parents signed some joint proposal meaning they would share everything and in case anything ever happened to both of them, everything would go to you. I mean the wait alone for all of you to croak would have killed me, so I felt that I had to help things along!
"You killed my parents?"
"I arranged everything, their disappearance and then their demise. That's why I filed for custody. I knew that just in case anything ever happened to you, all that money would go to me."
"I can't believe you. You're sick!"
"Why thank you honey!"
"What about Pietro? Why couldn't I see him anymore?"
"You see Kitty I've kept you from having any friends all this time for a purpose. If you just so happened to accidentally disappear, no questions or eyebrows would be raised. People would just think you went on vacation with your aunt. But when you started hanging around with that pretty boy I could see you two were really getting close. I couldn't let him come in and destroy all my plans."
"He's not stupid, I'm sure he'll find me."
"Please Kitty he's from across town, you're giving him too much credit. Now the time has come for you to die."
"So that's why you kept me here all this time? You should have just killed me and get it over with? It would have saved me all this misery!"
"And miss seeing the brave Kitty Pryde sweat. I don't think so. Now it's time for you to join your parents."
"No! Let me go, let me go, let me go!"
"Oh how cute, you're a fighter. Just like your dad."
===========================================================
"We've been driving for two hours Lance, where is this place?"
"Calm down man, we'll be there in a minute."
"I really hope she's okay."
"I'm sure she's fine Pietro."
===========================================================
"What are you doing? Why are you taking me? Are you letting me go? Please aunt Mystique..."
"Enough with the questions alright, you're giving me a headache!"
"Please aunt Mystique you can't do this to me! You... you can have the money I don't want it. I'll sign it all over to you and then I'll go away. I'll never..."
"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!"
"Alright I'll be quiet, just please stop hitting me!"
"You're just like your mother! She talked too much also!"
"What did you do to them?"
"I can't say. I don't want to upset you!"
===========================================================
"There's my cabin over there and I think that's Kitty's over to the left."
"Let's go then."
... ... ...
"She's not here!"
"Pietro look! This coffee's still warm."
"Look what else I found." Pietro passed a finger along the counter top
"What?" Lance cocked a brow suspiciously.
"Blood!" Pietro's eyes went wide as he felt the thick warm liquid.
"Do you think that it's..." Lance made a face.
"Shh...did you here that?" Pietro's ears perked up.
"Hear what?"
"A scream! It came from behind the cabin." Pietro darted across the room, with Lance following close behind.
