Title- Of Love and Hate
By-Kim Johnston
Chapter 9- Love or Hate?
"What Pietro? I can't understand you when you talk so fast." Magneto snapped at his son.
"Dad, something is really wrong with Pyro. And its not that he's just tired!"
"Why do you say this?"
"Because, dad, just trust me. Me and Pyro have been best friends since we meet. Remember having to drag us apart on vacation?" Pietro takes a seat. "Somethings really wrong with him. I found him drunk in his room, hell he didn't even have the blinds up!"
"That is unusual for Pyro..." Magneto taps his fingers against his desk. "Hum..."
"He's in the shower now. Why not let him rest today?"
"Very well Pietro, but you must go to the boarding house and talk to Amara and Kitty."
"... For Pyro alright. But one more of that girls remarks and I swear she's gonna get told off."
"Very well Pietro." Magneto smirks.
"And will you look in on Pyro later on? Make sure he didn't droned in the shower?"
"I'll go personaly." Erik nods and Pietro runs off.
-Boarding house-
Bobby knocks on the door and runs over his speach in his head. He waited un till the door opened and smiled seeing Tabathia. "What do you want? Just because my dad does drugs doesn't mean I do."
"Actually... Can you come out here?" Bobby says seeing Kitty and Amara watching him from the window.
"... Sure." Tabathia follows Bobby to his car. "What?"
"Your father has a meeting with Magneto today, I thought you'd like to know. Since he says he can get you to join, I told Magneto about last night and he told me to come tell you. And invite you to the meeting."
"... I want to go."
"Alright. Then be ready by 5:00 ok?" Bobby asked.
"No tricks right?"
"No tricks. You all are still coming Friday right?"
"Yeah." Tabathia nods.
"I'll pick you up at 5 then." Bobby goes to get in his car.
"Pickin up girls Bobby?" Pietro asked as he 'apeared'.
"Magneto told me to invite her to a meeting today."
"Oh, Hey are you going streight back?"
"... yeah..?"
"Remind my father to check on Pyro. And see if you can get anything out of him. The guys a mess." Tabathia watched Pietro's face show concern and Bobby nodded.
"So why are you here Pietro?" Tabathia asked.
"To see Miss Amara and... Kitty." Pietro says making Tabathia laugh at his tone of voice and the way he slumped down. "Though I'd rather talk to the wall then her."
"Excuse me?" Kitty says as she walks out side having heard Pietro. "How about I phase you into a wall?"
"Whatever." Pietro snorts. "Where's Amara?"
"Right here." Amara says coming up behind him. "Why?"
"Wanna go do something?"
"Who?" Amara asks.
"You, me...and Sigh Kitty."
"What?" Kitty asked raiseing and eyebrow.
"Movies, arcade, Japan? " Pietro shrugs.
"How would we get to Japan?" Kitty asks.
"I'd carry you both." Pietro puffs out his chest some.
"Yeah right. I think I can lift more then you can." Kitty says with a laugh.
"Hey the only reason I'm here is because... Never mind. Can you just not insult me for one day?" Pietro snaps. "I'm being nice."
"And so am I." Kitty says crossing her arms.
"Iswearifitwasn'tformyfatherI'dbehomeseeingwhatthehellwaswrongwithoneofmyon lyfriends Pyro." Pietro grumbles out at full speed except the last part.
The girls blinked completle lost. "What about Pyro?" Kitty asks.
"Pyro's, I don't know what's wrong with Pyro. My father is expose to check in on him to make sure he didn't drown after I left him in the shower this morning." Pietro runs a hand through his hair, he looks worried then smiles. "So we going to Japan or not?"
"No. Lets go to the arcade." Amara says.
"You two go ahead. I'm not in a going out mood." Kitty says and smiles.
"Suite yourself." Pietro says picking Amara up and running off at his full speed.
Kitty walked inside and picked up the phone. She dialed the club and waited for a answer." Hello, this is Kitty Pryde, is Magnetos in?" kitty holds and then gulps once magneto answers.
"Yes?" Magneto said with a sigh.
"This is Kitty Pryde, Um... is it alright if I check up on Pyro? I heard he's sick."
"Well of course it would be alright my dear. Actually I've been so busy I haven't got a chance to go check on him. But when you come over I'll lead the way and check on him myself as well."
"Alright. Thanks. I'll be over in a few."
"See you then My dear." Magneto and Kitty hang up.
-Coffee House-
Wanda sat reading the newest addition to her favorite magma issue. She sipped on her capacino and read the issue. "Excuse me, is this seat taken?"
"Why?" Wanda asked looking up at Piotr. "Magneto want it to work for him?"
"No. I wish to seat with you and talk."
"About?"
"Anything."
"Well that narrows it down."
"Yes."
"Why are you here?"
"Because, Magneto wishes us to let you all get to know us."
"So he sends you to stalk us."
"If you want to call it that."
"I do. So what should I know about you thats going to change my mind?"
"I guess that he wishes me to tell you why I work for him."
"Ok so shoot."
"I work for Magneto because my sister was very sick and we could not afford for her to be taken care of. He made sure she was taken care of and helped my family get out of proverty. I work for him so I can support my family and repay him for his help."
"Well I guess thats reasonable. But do you kill for him?"
"Yes."
"..I didn't expect the truth."
"I don't lie."
"Why do you kill for him?"
"Because he helps me. Besides, he is in the spot he is today not because he is weak. Magneto is a very genuros man and people try to take advantage of him. But he refuses to let that happen, for all of our sakes. He has given me a home and food that I never could have had in Russian and has saved my life and my parents. I've lived with Magneto and the rest since I was 14, thats 8 years now. Pyro has lived with him since he was 8. His mutain powers apeared earlier and he was disowned and left to die in the outback by a group of anti mutants, after they beat him. But Pyro is a very lively person, or has been up untill this week. And everyone is worried about him. Expecialy Pietro."
"Why?" Wanda had long ago closed her book and was lisening intently to Piotr.
"Because we are like a family. We watch out for each other. All of the guys and girls of Magnetos. Pietro is taking it the worst because he and Pyro have been friends since he was 7. 10 years now. they are inseperable. No matter how many jokes are directed towards each other."
"So its like a family there?"
"Yes. A large, loud, unruly family."
"Sounds fun actually."
"It is very entertaining."
-Boarding House-
Rogue noticed with a frown everyone had left her. She was trying to think up something to do but was having no luck. The doorbell rang. And she gladly answered it.
"'ello Chere!"
"'ello Swamp rat." Rogue rolls her eyes.
"Hum, dat not a nice pet name petitie."
"Good den maybe it'll get mah point across."
"..Non." Gambit smirks. "Gambit brough movies!"
"... Ahm scared ta ask... What ones?"
"He got, lets see well Gambit wasn't sure what tikkled chere's fansy so'e got somethin fer all ages." Gambit holds out Lion King 1 1/2. "Its one of da Jubilees favorites."
"Ah hate ta admit it but ahve been wantin ta watch it ta." Rogue lets gambit in.
A/N: ok so I hope you all are liking all the stuff Im writting because I know I am having so much fun! And yeah, I know I didn't put the Pyro and Kitty scene in here but I'm saving it for next chapter. Sorry for the spelling everyone! I went through and looked for red underlines, b/c if not it changes the dialog and I don't want that. Lov'en Kim
Review answers:
RikaTabathiaStarr-(Review for Ch.4) Its actually going to be a lot of things. Lol. Thanks(Chapter 5) Yeah Magneto is kindof incharge of the town. But as The Son of Logan and Ororo suggested I'm going to add King Pin, except I don't know much about King Pin Lol, Wanda finds out in chapter 12, that her father is MAgneto and all that. Rogue and Mystique... Well I have a twist but I don't know if anyon has read the comic so I don't want to confuse everyone. In a What IF comic my Marvel, Of Course, there is a comic called Quicksilver, at it tells about Pietro, it doesn't match everything in Evolution but I've already cut some things out of that and added it to my story. So yeah. Nightcrawler will come in later. Smiles . (Chapter 7) No, I don't see why you'd think that, so if you could explain? No one knows. Mystique had her suspesions as did Magneto...(Chapter 8) Because Bobby has to. He has to let MAgneto know someone has a offer for him... Now the questioon is is Magneto going to lisen and give him the light of day? Thanks for the reviews! Please continue to R&R!

The Son of Logan and Ororo-(Chapter 7 review) I'll do the King Pin so long as you tell me if I do something wrong. I don't know hardly a thing about him, except whats in the movie Daredevil and thats not much! No, Xavier isn't alive and isn't in the fic David... I personaly like Lucus better.Lol. But thats because I think he's cuter. Lucus may be in it but I doubt Juggernaut. (Chapter 8) I haven't read that comic. Have you read the what if comic called Quicksilver? Because I plan on using some information from there and I was wondering if you, or anyone besides me, has read it. Its great really! So if not email me and I'll tell you all about it, even type the words up if you want.Lol. I'm all for spreading info! i have the first of the Rogue series too and a few others the futur ones, thouh my personal favorites are the oldies!, I think I'm going to use them to. So yes Elizabeth should be showing up too! Thanks for the reviews! Please continue R&Ring.
