Misunderstood
Chapter 1
The Hill
Jean woke up and look around, she doesn't know where she is or who or what she is. All she saw was a man and so many ugly monsters. The man was ugly too, but that is only because of the scar on his face. "Where am I?" She asked.
"You are at the Hill my dear." A thick voice spoke up. It wasn't harsh nor was it friendly.
"Who are you?" She asked.
Mikhail arched an eyebrow. "You don't remember me my beloved? I am your husband, Mikhail. We have a daughter name Sarah."
"Sarah?" Jean look confused.
Mikhail nodded and signal for someone to come. A little girl with purple hair and blue eyes entered. She look to be around eight-year-old. She was holding onto a broken teddy bear. "How are you feeling mommy?"
Mikhail smiled to himself, everything was going according to plan. He will have the most powerful telepath on Earth and no one would know it. The Phoenix is his to keep, his prize possession, and no one can look at her but himself and their 'daughter.'
"I don't know, what happened? Can you kindly tell me? I can't remember." She said.
Sarah look up at Mikhail, she doesn't know what to say. He didn't tell how to answer her 'mother's' questions. He only order her to 'pretend' that the new girl was her mother and that he was her father. "Go play with Artie, Sarah. I have to talk to your mother."
Sarah nodded and gave Jean a smile before she left.
"How long have we been married?" Jean just asked.
"We been together for over ten years. You are twenty-eight years old at this moment. When you were pregnant with Sarah, everyone found out that we we're mutants after you gave birth to her." He paused to see if she was believing him, indeed, she was. "She was born with bones growing out of her skin."
Jean gasped, "then what happened next?"
"I teleported us to this place, the Hill, our new home, where you and I are rulers. King and Queen." He whispered into her ears, giving her the chills. "But I wanted the best for you and Sarah, so I took you two to the Morlocks' Tunnel. But evil mutants came and disrupt our peace. Now we're back at the Hill"
"Evil Mutants?" She asked.
He nodded, "the X-Men, they are very evil. They killed half the Morlocks' population and nearly killed Sarah."
He smirked when he saw that her eyes were flaming with rage. "Which X-Men did this to my Sarah?"
"Cyclops and Charles Xavier." Mikhail answered. He let rage overtake him as well. His plans were going according to plans. She's too angry to remember who Professor X, the X-Men, or even Cyclops really are. "You need some rest Phoenix, I'll be here when you wake up."
She nodded and laid back down on the stoned bed and let her eyes rest.
Cyclops woke up, Elisabeth Braddock sitting on the seat beside his bed. Rogue and Gambit were leaning up against the wall with each other. Quietly whispering to each other and making the other blush.
Betsy eyes were on Rogue and Remy when Scott woke up. It seem as if it was just last month when Forge manage to make something so Rogue would be able to touch. Even before that, Rogue and Remy did had a special relationship.
Betsy, on the other hand, worship Scott like a god. Only to be turn down every time, because Lil' Miss Perfect. Rogue told her how she had crushes on Scott before, only to have the same faith as herself. But Rogue is lucky, she has Remy. A man who can have any girl he wants, chose her.
Sometimes, Betsy fine herself getting jealous of the Goth more then the perfect redhead. She has the perfect man, she didn't want attention, but she got attentions, all the attentions she can get from one person. And that person is Gambit.
Betsy yearn for attentions like Rogue, but ever since the body switch, Betsy was left out in the cold. Her modeling career gone, her family had no idea where she went to. She knew, if they found out about her, they won't accepted her because they won't recognize her.
"Jean, where's Jean?" The three X-Men turn to look at the frantic looking Cyclops.
"Sorry mon ami, Jeanie's gone." Remy replied when neither of the girls did.
"What do you mean by gone!" Scott was furious.
"Wha' Remy means is, Jean's dead, Scott." Rogue replied. "We couldn't recover her body."
"No!!" Scott shout like a lunatic, "no, this can't be happening, it must be a bad dream!"
"Sorry luv, but it's real." Psylocke replied. "And we cannot do anything to change it. She's gone, time to move on..."
"No! She's not gone!!" Scott shout as he start shedding some tears.
Rogue and Remy raised an eyebrow. Betsy look at them and suggested that they should leave this to her. They nodded and left.
"Scott, she really die. Professor couldn't pick her up on Cerebro." Betsy stated. Softly, she said, "death comes to all of us. We volunteered to do this. Be an X-Men and fight for what we believe in. And every battles we go into, either us or them are going to suffer. This time it was us. Cheer up Scott, it's time to move on. Wailing isn't going to bring the dead back to life."
"But-"
"But nothing luv, Jean doesn't want you to be like this, I know she want you to be happy. So be happy Shade!" The last statement sound as if it's a threat.
Scott look at her as if was going to cry some more. He did what she would never though he would, he hugged her. "Thanks Betts."
Betsy smile and hug him back. "No problem luv."
Outside, in the hallway. Rogue, Remy, Kitty, Kurt, and Piotr were thinking the same thing. "'bout time Scott got ta his senses. There she was, lovin' 'im, an' red was in the way. Now that she's gone, Betsy can have him all ta herself..."
Remy arms' were around Rogue's shoulder, he smirked and whispered in her ears. "An' Remy got Roguey all t'himself when he take her somewhere private."
"Remy..." She spoke softly.
"Let's go t'Remy's room an' talk." He grinned.
"Ahem!" Kurt cough to get their attention. Both turn around and give the blue elf their best smile.
"I gotta go and like work on my school project. See you guys later." Kitty said and look over at Piotr.
"And I will assist her." She grab his hand and ran off.
Kurt look at Kitty and Piotr and shudder, knowing exactly what they were going to do, and it's not pretty. Before he teleported away, he said, "Mein Gott, zhis school is too dirty."
"Wha' was dat all 'bout?" Remy raised an eyebrow.
"Properly because he teleported in Cyclops room an' saw him wit' ya know who, doin' yah know what." Rogue smirked. "An' wit' his sister datin' a flirtiest Cajun, he should b' disgusted..."
