Controlling powers part 2
Pietro woke up to see Wanda and Rogue staring at him.
"I told you 10 hours sleep and he wakes up." Wanda said to Rogue.
"How yah doin?" Rogue asked.
"Fine" Pietro said standing up, "I'm gonna get something to eat."
"No your not you sit down I'll make you something," Wanda said about to turn around.
"I don't need you to make my fucking food Wanda." Pietro almost shouted, "I'm not a invalid."
"I know but knowing you, you'll make something with a high amount of sugar in and you don't need that." Wanda said with her hands on her hips.
"Fucking hell Wanda you're not my mother I can look after myself." Pietro snapped back.
"What is it with you, stop picking fights with me, you know you're going to lose." Wanda shouted at him. "I'm trying to help you moron, if you hadn't noticed I'm the only one who knows how."
"I don't need your help, I don't need anybody's help, I've been able to get on just fine without your help for years." Pietro shouted back at her.
"Pietro if you haven't noticed, you're evolving again, not a pretty sight" Wanda said staring at him "I just hope you don't become more of an arrogant prick than you already are." At that Wanda walked out of the room and they heard her slam her bedroom door.
"What on god's name was that for?" Rogue asked looking down at him.
"What? She's just been a bitch lately." Pietro said sitting down.
"A bitch Pietro that's not being a bitch, that's being concerned." Rogue said next to him "Wanda stayed up all night waiting for you then when you collapsed she stayed with you. That's no bitch Pietro."
"LookIdon'tneedthisI'llseeyoulater" Pietro said running off.
---------------- --------------- ---------------- -------------- ------------------- -------------- -------------- --------------
Pietro ran and ran, he didn't even stop he just ran.
He ran all the way to Europe without even noticing. He stopped off at a few place to look around then carried on running.
----------- -------------- --------------- -------------- ------------------- ----------------- --------------------- ---------
"Wanda, don't you even care?" Lance shouted, "He's been gone for days now."
"So, it's the best place for him unless he wants to end up in hospital." Wanda shouted down.
"Can't you do anything?" Lance asked looking at Kurt.
"Vhat? Every time I go in there she throws me back out," Kurt said rubbing he's head. "I know how Toads feels now."
"He's a complete Jackass and if he doesn't want to come home then that's fine with me!" Wanda shouted again.
"Like, we have to do something Pietro could be anywhere" Kitty said hugging Lance.
"I'll try again" Kurt said then ported.
"Ah know what we need to do." Rogue said having an idea. "Ah'll ask the Professor to use Cerebro."
"Yeah okay, you do that, we'll try and get Wanda out of her room." Lance said looking at Rogue.
-------------- ---------------- ------------------ --------------- ------------------ ---------------- ------------------ -----------
Kurt ported on top of her and held down her hands.
"Afternoon" Kurt said smiling "How are ve today?"
"Kurt let go of me," Wanda said wiggling.
"No. Not until you calm down, and promise me you want hex me again, cause it hurts," Kurt said smiling again.
"Okay" Wanda sighed then sat up.
"So you actually going to reasonable and talk to me," Kurt said smiling at her.
"It's not my fault he's a jackass, he did this last time too, but not this bad." Wanda said still annoyed.
"You mean vhen he first got his powers." Kurt said now stroking her hands.
"Yeah, if he goes into overdrive and dies it's his own fault." Wanda said then lied back down.
"You don't mean that," Kurt said leaning over her. "Come on let's get out of here for a while." At that Kurt ported outside.
----------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- --------------- --------------- --------------------- ---------------
Before Rogue could even knock on the door the Professor opened it for her.
"Rogue, please come in," he said looking at her. She walked over to where he sat looking out of the window. "Something troubles you."
"Err, yeah" Rogue started "Ah gotta tell you something that you might not be too happy about, but ah know you'll understand."
"You want to tell me about your relationship with Pietro Maximoff," The Professor said. "Don't worry I've known for some time."
"Yah have?" Rogue looked at him blankly "Well ah suppose it would pretty stupid to try and get something past you."
"I also know of Kitty's relationship with Mr Alvers and Kurt's with Wanda." He said looking at her. "But you're not here about just that are you?"
"No," Rogue said still amazed "Pietro's gone a bit mad and we can't find him."
"I know he's making Cerebro go a bit out of control," he said. "He has certainly become a lot faster than he used to be."
"Ah know and he's even more impatient and keeps starting fights with Wanda" Rogue said sadly "Ah mean you'd have to be pretty mad to start a fight with The Scarlet Witch."
"Well Rogue all we can do is wait for him to return I'm afraid." He said looking at her getting up.
"Okay, I'll go tell the others." She said then walked out.
------------ ----------------- ---------------- ----------------- ------------------ ------------------ ----------- --------------
Pietro ran past the Bayville High school he felt a twinge in his heart but ignored it.
"Man, I've got to go apologize to Rogue" He said to himself then set off for the institute.
----------------- -------------- --------------- -------------- ---------------- --------------- --------------- -------------
There was a knock at the door; Rogue got up to open it looking at Pietro.
"Where have ya been?" Rogue shouted at Pietro.
"I'm sorry," Pietro said suddenly having to catch his breath. "I'm pretty messed up at the moment."
"Ah know," Rogue said hugging him.
Pietro felt another twinge in his heart but this time a stronger one and hurt like hell. He grabbed his chest and tried to breath but he couldn't.
Rogue noticed his difficulty. "Pietro, you okay?" she asked but it was too late.
Pietro fell to the ground and started shaking.
"Oh my gawd. Pietro!" Rogue shouted then ran out into the hall screaming for help.
------------ --------------- -------------- -------------- ----------------- -------------- ------------------ ------------
Pietro lay in the infirmary bed whilst Rogue stayed by his side.
"Do you know what happened, Hank?" The Professor asked.
"Yes Charles, he seems he had some sort of heart attack." Hank said looking at the charts.
"Ah, the strain of his powers evolving are affecting his body" Charles said rubbing his head.
Kurt ported himself and Wanda into the infirmary, where Pietro's stationary body lay.
She looked at Rogue who had obviously been crying. Kurt hugged Rogue, and they started to talk.
"He came to apologize then he collapsed." Rogue said still crying.
Wanda looked at her twin and couldn't move or even speak.
"Wanda?" Rogue asked, "You okay?"
Wanda didn't answer she just stared at Pietro and brushed his hair back.
"Wanda?" Kurt said putting his hand on her shoulder.
"I have to contact Father" Wanda said emotionlessly.
"What?" Rogue said staring at her.
"I have to contact Father, he'll want to know." Wanda repeated then walked out of the room.
Kurt and Rogue just stared at each other.
"What just happened here?" Rogue asked, "Her brother, has had a heart attack and she didn't look the slightest bit upset."
"Ja. I know" Kurt said then ported out of the room to find Wanda.
----------------- -------------- --------------- --------------- ---------------------- ------------ ------------- -------------
"Vanda, wait up" Kurt called catching up with her." Are you okay?" He asked.
She carried on walking out the gates of the institute. "I'm fine," She said still walking.
"You do know Pietro's had a heart attack." Kurt asked.
"Yes, I know" Wanda said still walking, Kurt ported in front of her which made her halt.
"You don't seem upset," He said to her.
"I am" Wanda said looking down trying not to cry.
"You can cry" Kurt said looking at her. "I von't tell anyone."
"No, it's a weakness" Wanda said still trying not too.
Kurt hugged her and she burst into tears.
They didn't move for a while.
------------ ------------- ---------------- ------------- -------------------- ----------------- --------------------- ------------------
The professor rolled over to Rogue. And started to ask her questions.
"Rogue can you and Pietro touch?"
Rogue just nodded.
"How long has it been?" He asked another question "Since you first touched I mean?"
""A month, ah think," Rogue said holding Pietro's hand.
"Yes, well, I'll leave you in peace." The professor said then rolled away.
Wanda and Kurt ported back into the room.
"Hey," Wanda said looking at Rogue.
"You okay?" Rogue asked.
"Suppose, feel kind of guilty shouting at Pietro" Wanda said brushing her fingertips along his skin on his arm.
"Don't. Pietro wouldn't want you to." Rogue said looking at Pietro.
Wanda and Kurt sat down and waited for Pietro to wake up.
--------- -------------------- ------------------------------ --------------- ------------------ -------------- ---------------
Hank and the Professor stood in his office talking.
"So you think that Rogue can touch him, because of his recent development in his powers." Hank said looking at his charts again. "Make's sense, he's got enough energy."
"Yes well I think we should keep an eye on him." Charles looking at Hank "But I'm not sure if I should at least try and contact Magneto."
"Maybe if we wait for Pietro to wake up first then ask what he wants." Hank said standing up.
"Yes, I think that would be for the best." Charles said as Hank left the room.
--------- --------------- ----------------- ----------------- ------------ ------------------ ------------------ --------------
Pietro opened his eyes slowly looking around the room. He blinked a few times to get them into focus.
On one side of the bed Rogue sat with her head on the bed. On the other Wanda sat with her head resting on Kurt.
He coughed slightly to get their attention.
Rogue woke up first.
"Pietro!" Rogue screamed. Jumping up and hugging him. This woke up Kurt and Wanda.
Pietro started to talk but it didn't quite sound right. Rogue looked at him blankly. Then looked at Wanda.
"What did he say?" Rogue asked.
"He's talking Romanian," Wanda said then replied in the same language.
Pietro realised this too and started to talk in English.
"Sorry, minor meltdown." Pietro said smiling.
"That's okay." Rogue said holding his hand.
"Pie" Wanda said, "Do you want me to contact father?"
Pietro looked at Rogue. But Rogue just raised an eyebrow.
"No." Pietro said to Wanda simply.
"Why not?" Wanda asked totally confused.
"Wanda, father's not the type of Father you think he is." Pietro said to her, she still looked totally confused. "I'll explain later."
"Okay" Wanda said then sat down. Still confused.
--------- --------------- ------------ ----------------- --------------------- ------------- ------------- --------------------
Pietro lay in his bed completely bored. Everyone had to leave, Doctors orders.
The professor had to speak to Pietro alone.
"Pietro" The professor began. "Do you want me to contact your Father?"
"No" Pietro said, "He wouldn't care if I was dead, lying in a coffin, let alone alive."
"Okay then" The Professor said then coughed. "You know that you've been evolving."
"Yeah, I think that's obvious," Pietro said sarcastically.
"Well then I would like you to stay at the institute until we can be sure that your condition is safe." The Professor said looking at Pietro.
"What?" Pietro shouted almost jumping out of bed. "Magneto would kill me, I'm meant to be the leader of the brotherhood."
"Well as you said Pietro he doesn't care." The Professor said.
"What about Wanda?" Pietro said thinking about it.
"She's welcome here, as well as the rest of the brotherhood." The professor said then started to roll away. "I'll take that as a yes."
----------- --------------- ----------------- ------------------ ------------------ ----------------- -------------- ---------------
Everyone gathered in the rec room when the Professor told them what was going to happen.
"WHAT!" Scott shouted "You've got to be joking me right? This is the brotherhood of EVIL mutants."
"No, I'm not joking Scott," The Professor said looking at the group of students. "Mr Maximoff is in a dangerous condition that could kill him if he doesn't have the right treatment. I think you understand."
"No, this is, like. totally great," Kitty said squealing, "We don't need to sneak around anymore."
"What sneaking around?" Scott asked looking at Kitty.
"Err Nothing" Kitty said getting death glares from both Kurt and Rogue.
"Vell at least Pietro vill be safe, Ja?" Kurt said talking to Rogue.
"Ah dunno he's probably safer at the Brotherhood house." Rogue said looking at how angry Scott was.
"Don't vorry I'll talk to him" Kurt said as they walked out the door.
------------ ----------------- ------------------ -------------------- ------------------ --------------- -------------- -------------------
In the medical room Pietro had just told the Brotherhood.
"No way man" Toad said "First you make us go back to school now this."
"I didn't make you go back to school," Pietro said brushing his hair back. "I persuaded you."
"Pietro, what will Father say?" Wanda said looking at him.
"Wanda just trust me on this okay?" Pietro said looking at her "I'll explain later."
Pietro then looked at Lance who was considering it. "You'll see more of Kitty."
Lance's eyes lit up "I'm in."
Now all there was to convince was Fred and Toad. If Fred came Toad would follow.
"Freddy all the food you can eat." Pietro said grinning,
"Food, yes." Freddy said rubbing his hands. "I'm in."
Pietro then turned to Toad. "Toad?"
"Ah man" Toad said looking at Pietro. "Okay."
------------- ---------------------- ----------- --------------------- --------------------- ----------------------- -------------------
"Scott, vait up" Kurt said porting next to him. "So, you okay vith this?"
"No, I mean the Brotherhood are EVIL, not to mention really screwed up." Scott said angrily.
"They're not that bad really, I mean Toad's annoying and Fred eats a lot." Kurt said looking at Scott. "But the rest of them are alright to hang out vith."
"What, you've hung out with them?" Scott said turning to look at Kurt. "I know Kitty and Rogue were but why you? Rogue has Pietro and Kitty has Lance."
"Vell yeah I've been seeing Vanda" Kurt said smiling.
"WHAT?" Scott shouted "Why? I thought you were smarter than that. Kurt she's Magneto's daughter!"
Kurt was getting angry now. "Yeah and I'm Mystique's son, so what!"
Scott didn't know what to say. "Sorry, it's just a shock you know."
"That's okay, Scott if you try to get on vith them they won't make any trouble." Kurt said now smiling.
"I can't promise anything." Scott said looking at Kurt. "Man, how long have you kept that a secret?"
"Too long" Kurt answered as they continued walking down the corridor.
